Calm down, the Paracas skulls are not from alien beings.

Why you should be skeptical of the recent genetic testing done on the Paracas skulls— and it’s not for the reason you might think.

Yesterday, I wrote an article about a set of genetic tests done on a sample from one of the famous elongated Paracas skulls, which are 3,000 years old and were found in southern Peru. The basic news was this: some genetic tests had found DNA in the skulls that was reportedly previously “unknown in any human, primate, or animal known so far.” The implication, helped by the distinctly B-movie “alien” appearance of the skulls, was that the skulls must contain extraterrestrial DNA. Scientists and archaeologists generally believe that the skulls’ strange appearance is the result of intentional deformation practiced by the Paracas culture.

I saw this story floating around in the paranormal blogosphere for a few days before I decided to report on it. I ignored it, frankly, until it was picked up by Yahoo! and the International Business Times, as well as a few smaller news sources around the world. So I wrote a short article, mostly because it was a silly story that was fun to write about after a morning of writing about human trafficking and illegal gold mining.

But I find this story really, really irritating. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the alien part of this story that bothers me. I believe in the possibility of aliens. More than anything, it bothers me that established news sites apparently failed to do even cursory research on the background of the story before publishing it.

Let’s start with a quick talk about aliens. In an infinite universe, it seems foolhardy— even arrogant— to completely dismiss the idea of extraterrestrial life. There are so many galaxies, so many planets, so many suns; across the neverending expanse of space, one suspects that there must be another group of intelligent beings somewhere.

But suspect is the key word there. We have no credible evidence for the existence of alien civilizations. As Carl Sagan said, “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.” And claiming that the Paracas skulls are possibly alien is certainly extraordinary. So let’s look at the evidence— does it measure up?

Well, the short answer is no. First, consider the source: the preliminary results of genetic testing were announced by Brien Foerster, who is the assistant director of the Paracas History Museum.

That’s a pretty impressive title, and I’ll admit that it threw me. That title implies formal archaeological, curatorial, or history credentials, maybe a body of peer-reviewed research projects. That title implies that he has serious academic credibility, and that we should listen to his announcements about his areas of expertise.

None of this is true. Some pretty basic Google research turns up some facts about Foerster that cast his announcement in an entirely different light.

First, his academic credentials: by cobbling information together from the webpage of his company Hidden Inca Tours and his official Facebook page, it appears that he has a Bachelor of Science from the University of Victoria, in British Columbia, Canada. Foerster doesn’t offer any further information about his educational background, including his exact field of undergraduate study. I was unable to find any evidence of an advanced degree.

Foerster’s company, Hidden Inca Tours, is a travel agency that specializes in taking travelers on paranormal tours around the world, but focuses on Peru and the surrounding region. Foerster has also written a number of books on archaeology, including one called “The Enigma of Cranial Deformation: Elongated Skulls of the Ancients,” which he wrote with David Hatcher Childress. Vanderbilt University archaeologist Charles E. Orser once called Childress “one of the most flagrant violators of basic archaeological reasoning.”

So what about his role as assistant director at the Paracas History Museum? How did a paranormal tour operator get that job?

Well, first, the Paracas History Museum is a private museum. It’s owned by one Juan Navarro, who is also its director. Navarro is also listed on the Hidden Inca Tours webpage as a member of “Our Team of Experts.” I was unable to find any mention of academic credentials earned by Navarro, either.

My preoccupation with academic credentials is not meant to downplay the immense wisdom and experience possessed by many people who do not have undergraduate or post-grad degrees. Being smart does not require a college degree. Heck, it doesn’t require any kind of education at all; it’s an innate quality.

However, scientific expertise is not an innate quality. It is something that is gained through years of study and research, both of which are usually completed in an institution that awards successful students degrees upon graduation.

To be fair, I don’t have any special academic credentials that make me an expert in archaeology or genetics. But I’m not arguing that the data is flawed— we haven’t seen the full data, and I’m not qualified to speak on that— but I am arguing that a number of features of the announcement should warn us not to take Foerster’s announcement at face value.

That brings us to the strange nature of the announcement. Foerster announced the results personally, via internet, rather than through a scientifically reputable source.

There are a number of problems with the way he announced the preliminary results. Speaking to Discovery.com, science promoter and skeptic Sharon Hill said “This is an unconventional way of making ‘groundbreaking’ claims.”

Hill added “It’s not supported by a university, but by private funding. The initial findings were released in this unprofessional way (via Facebook, websites and an Internet radio interview) obviously because Foerster and the other researchers think this is very exciting news.”

Exciting news is one thing, but scientific credibility is another. “[S]cience doesn’t work by social media,” said Hill. “Peer review is a critical part of science and the Paracas skulls proponents have taken a shortcut that completely undermines their credibility. Appealing to the public’s interest in this cultural practice we see as bizarre — skull deformation —instead of publishing the data for peer-review examination is not going to be acceptable to the scientific community.”

There’s also the matter of the testing itself. According to Foerster, the geneticist who discovered the allegedly never-before-seen DNA, wants to remain anonymous. If that’s not a red flag for the credibility of your research, I don’t know what is.

The final nail in this story’s coffin, for me, was the revelation that Foerster had appeared on the popular History Channel program “Ancient Aliens” multiple times. In yesterday’s article, I said that the scientific and archaeological communities generally regard “Ancient Aliens” as inaccurate.

“Inaccurate.” That was an understatement.

Archaeologist Keith Fitzpatrick-Matthews has this to say about “Ancient Aliens”:

“I find it incredible and frightening that a worldwide distributed television channel that bills itself as ‘The History Channel’ can broadcast such rubbish as Ancient Aliens. If it were an entertainment programme, I’d have fewer worries (although it would still make me cross); it is the implied authority of the channel (‘The History Channel’, not just any old ‘History Channel’) that makes the broadcast of this series so potentially damaging […] A channel that is making claims for its authoritative status, which offers educational resources, has a responsibility not to mislead its viewers (no doubt its executives think of them as ‘customers’). That responsibility is one that all makers and broadcasters of supposedly factual television have, but one that few of them take seriously: the responsibility to check facts.”

Foerster has not said explicitly that he believes the skulls are alien. In a YouTube interview, he said “My intent simply is to find the truth as to who these people were.”

That’s a noble goal. But if you really want to find out who the people of the Paracas culture were, speak to some archaeologists. Make your research transparent and available to the public. Have your data reviewed for journals with stringent requirements and high standards. Don’t use an historical oddity as a cheap hook for your tour company, or to sell books. If your goal is to help enrich humanity’s knowledge of our ancient past, then share your information with us instead of releasing only selected snippets of admittedly preliminary results. Otherwise, we have no reason to believe you.

UFOs and Extraterrestrials in Art History

(Before It's News)

An unidentified flying object, often abbreviated UFO or U.F.O., is an unusual apparent anomaly in the sky that is not readily identifiable to the observer as any known object. Originally referred to popularly as “flying saucers” during the late 40’s, the term UFO became more widespread during the 50s at first in professional literature, but later in popular language. UFOs garnered considerable interest during the Cold War, an era associated with a heightened concern for national security.

Various studies, both governmental and civilian, have concluded that the phenomenon does not represent a threat to national security nor does it contain anything worthy of scientific pursuit, although there is disagreement. Culturally, the phenomenon has often been associated with extraterrestrial life or government-related conspiracy theories, and thus has become a popular theme in fiction.

			The other painting is from Kolo shows four entities surrounding a women. Notice also the entity looking down from inside some sort of box or object.
	France	17,000 – 15,000 BC	These two images are from France, the cave of “Pech Merle” near “Le Cabrerets” c.17,000 – 15,000 BC.The scene depicts a landscape full of wildlife togetherwith a number of saucer shaped objects. The objects seem totally out of context.
	Toro Muerto, Peru	12-14,000 years old	These two examples of rock art are from Toro Muerto, Peru 12-14,000 years old. Notice the beings have some sort of halo or covering over their heads. Also, in the right hand picture there is some sort of object left of the main being.
	Val Camonica, Italy	10,000 BC	This cave painting on the left is c.10,000 BC and is from Val Camonica, Italy. It appears to depict two beings in protective suits holding strange implements.
	Nepal	7,000 B.C.	7,000 B.C. – The Lolladoff plate (right), discovered in Nepal, appears to show a hovering disk-shaped object in the center and a small being, resembling an alien resembling an alien gray, beside it. The circular pattern is reminescent of the spiraling movement of consciousness – Golden Ratio – Sacred Geometry of creation.
	Tassili, Sahara Desert, North Africa	6000 BC	Two images c.6000 BC from Tassili, Sahara Desert, North Africa. Also notice the disk in the sky in left hand picture.
	Sego Canyon , Utah	5,500 BC	On the left, more strange looking figures (aliens) this time from Sego Canyon , Utah. Estimated up to 5,500 BC.
	Querato, Mexico	5,000 B.C.	This picture is a 7000 year old petroglyph discovered in the province of Querato, Mexico in 1966. You can see 4 figures with their arms outstretched below a large oval object radiating what appear to be beams of light.
	Iraq	5000-4500 BC	This photo on the left is of a number of reptilian entities found in Iraq. They are dated at 5000-4500 BC. They are housed in the British museum.
	Kiev	4,000 BC	This strange suited figure on the right was found in Kiev and I believe its dated to 4,000 BC.
	Mesopotamia	5000 BCE – 4000 BC	Figurines, Lizard-headed or Ubaid Style, clay, Ur (Ubaid culture), 5th millenium BCE, h:13.6 cm From the Ubaid – Southern Mesopotamian Period, 5000 BCE – 4000 BC. Found in Ur. The Ubaid culture succeeded the Halaf at the end of the 6th millenium BCE in southern Iraq, then spread throughout Mesopotamia. Ubaid culture is known for painted pottery; large houses of tripartite plan for extended families; and lizard-headed figurines of both male and female gender. Figurines such as the above examples are typical.The figure on the left holds a baby on her hip and suckles it. The figure on the righth as incised stretch marks on her abdomen. It has been suggested that the brown-painted dots and lines represent tatoos, and the clay pelletsscarring. It is unknown if the shape of the skulls represents actual head-binding.Similar Lizard-headed figurines have been found at Eridu.   Collon, Dominique. Ancient Near Eastern Art. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1995, pg 46.
	Kimberley, Australia	3,000 BC	These are images from Kimberley, Australia (approximately 5,000 years ago). They are Australian Aborigine cave paintings. Aboriginal myths incorporate the idea of “sky-beings”, with the Wandjina being among the most interesting to consider. The Wandjina have been preserved in a fascinating oral tradition and in a large collection of rock paintings scattered throughout the Kimberley region of northern Australia. The paintings have received all manner of interpretations from stylized representations of a pervasive myth system to naive “ancient astronaut” theories. It is however fascinating to see that the indigenous tribes viewed the Wandjina as “the spirit in the cloud.” Indeed, the unique painting style shows a logical sequence from human figures to stylised representations of clouds. This duality of anthropomorphic form and “clouds” is widespread in primitive cultures and finds an interesting parallel in the biblical accounts in “Exodus.”
		?	These petroglyphs were created thousands of years ago by ancient Indians in the American Southwest. According to Indian folklore, two objects collided high in the sky and one crash-landed in the region of Death Valley. Some men arrived (presumably in another ship) and spent some time repairing the damaged Craft and were observed by the local Indians. The two images below may possibly depict the ship (left) used by the men who came to repair the damaged craft. In comparing the two images, the one on the right seems to depict structural damage around the edges and the bottom. Could it be the one that allegedly crashed?
	Equador	?	These photos on the left depict figures found in Equador. Notice they appear to be wearing space suits. You can see a comparison photo with an Apollo astronaut.
	Egypt	2,600 BC	In Egypt there exists a star clock for the Precession of the Equinoxes and an electric light bulb that dates to 2600 BC. An electric battery was discovered in a rock carbon dated approximately 500,000 years ago.
	Jotuo	?	This is an artistic reproduction of a relief found in a labyrinth on the island Jotuo in the Toengt’ing lake. An expedition took place in 1957 (two years before an earthquake in that region). The expedition was led by professor Tsj’i Pen-Lai. They found various reliefs showing “humans” in strange clothes which looked like astronaut suits (hose like objects attached to the clothes). They also found a painting which apparently resembled the solar system. The third and fourth circle (planet) were connected with a line. Also there were ten planets (excluding the sun as planet).
	China	1400 A.D.	This is an old Chinese illustration from a fictional book entitled “Illustrated Survey of Weird Countries” (c.1400 A.D.) and had the following original caption: “Ji Gung Land: The people could make flying cars that travelled far with a suitable wind. In Tarng’s day (c.1700 B.C.), Ji Gung people flying a car on a westerley reached Yew Jo. Tarng dismantled their car so it could not be demonstrated to the people … Later an east wind came on which he had them fly the car back to their own country [5,000 km] west of our gateway.”
	Biblioteca, Vatican	700	This image depicts Mary at the tomb of Jesus. It is one of a series of images from the “Relinquary Box” which contains stones from holy sites of Palestine. Dated 6th-7th C. Located at Biblioteca, Vatican. Notice the dome shaped object above the tomb. If it is a building why is it hovering? Also, what is the round object on top?
	Japan	900	This illustration depicts a sighting of a burning wheel in the year 900 over Japan.
	Japan	1,000	The image on the left comes from the 10th Century Tibetan translation of the Sanskrit text “Prajnaparamita Sutra”, held at a Japanese museum. In the enlargement you can see two objects that look like hats, but why are they floating in mid air? also one of them appears to have port holes on it. Indian Vedic texts are full of descriptions of Vimanas. The Ramayana describes Vimanas as a double decked, circular or cylindrical aircraft with portholes and a dome. It flew with “the speed of the wind” and gave forth a “melodious sound”.
	Greece	1,200	The illustration on the left is entitled “The Birth of Christ” from a 12th century Greek manuscript “The Book of the Evangelists”. If you look to the right of the picture there two figures looking up at a semi-circular object with figures inside. The object appears to be shining a beam of light down onto the birth. One of the pair of observers is shielding his eyes, possibly the artist was trying to convey the brightness of the object.
	France	1,200	These images of two crusaders date from a 12th century manuscript ” Annales Laurissenses” (volumes/books about historical and religion events)and refer to a UFO sighting in the year 776, during the siege on Sigiburg castle, France. The Saxons besieged and surrounded the French people. They both were fighting when suddenly a group of discs (flaming shields) appeared hovering over the top of the church. It appeared to the Saxons that the French were protected by these objects and the Saxons fled.
	France	1,400	These two tapestries were created in the 14th century. Both depict the life of Mary. Hat shaped objects can be clearly seen in both tapestries. The one on the right was created in 1330. The one on the left is entitled “The Magnificat”. Both are located at the French basillica Notre-Dame in Beaune, Burgandy.
	France	1338	This image on the left comes from the french book “Le Livre Des Bonnes Moeurs” by Jacques Legrand. You can find this book in Chantilly Condé’s Museum ref 1338 ,297 part 15 B 8. Some people say that the sphere is a balloon but there was no balloon in france in 1338.
	Yugoslavia	1350	The top picture on the left shows a fresco entitled “The Crucifixion” and was painted in 1350. Two objects with figures inside can be seen in the top left and top right of the fresco. Two enlargements of these objects are shown below the fresco. The fresco is located above the altar at the Visoki Decani Monestary in Kosovo, Yugoslavia.
	Florence	1460	The painting on the left is by Paolo Uccello (1396-1475) and is entitled “La Tebaide” (painted c.1460-1465). The blown up picture to the right of it shows a red saucer shaped UFO seen near Jesus. It hangs in the Academy of Florence.
	Italy	14th century	This picture depicts Jesus and Mary on what appear to be lenticular clouds. The painting is entitled “The Miracle of the Snow” and was painted by Masolino Da Panicale (1383-1440) and hangs at the church of Santa Maria Maggiore, Florence, Italy.
	?	14th century	Many paintings by Piero Della Francesca, including the picture on the left, “The Baptism of Christ” (1450), contain lenticular shaped clouds that many believe to be UFOs.
	Italy	1500	This painting is called “The Madonna with Saint Giovannino”. It was painted in the 15th century by Domenico Ghirlandaio (1449-1494) and hangs as part of the Loeser collection in the Palazzo Vecchio. Above Mary’s right shoulder is a disk shaped object. Below is a blow up of this section and a man and his dog can be seen looking up at the object.
	Rome	?	The picture on the left is a renaissance illustration of a UFO sighting in Rome detailed in a book “Prodigiorum liber” by Roman historian Julio Obsequens – “Something like a sort of weapon, or missile, rose with a great noise from the earth and soared into the sky”.
	?	Early 15th century	The painting on the right is entitled “The Intercession of Christ and the Virgin”, early 15th century by Lorenzo Monaco. It depicts God in the sky with strange disc shaped clouds underneath. It is held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
	?	1465	1465 – Cigar shaped UFO – flaming girder seen in the sky during the reign of Enrico IV From Notabilia Temporum by Angelo de Tummulillis.
		1486	This painting is by Carlo Crivelli (1430-1495) and is called “TheAnnunciation with Saint Emidius” (1486) and hangs in the National Gallery, London.A disk shaped object is shining a pencil beam of light down onto the crown of Mary’s head.
	Belgium	?	This is a painting on a wood drawer from furniture kept at the Earls D’Oltremond, Belgium. Moses is receiving the tablets and several objects in the sky are seen near by. Date and artist unknown. This supports the claims of many that many biblical events, can be further explained when ufos and aliens are taken into consideration, higher forms of technology could explain some of the events such as writing on stone with fire, parting the red sea, etc… higher forms of technology might explain how some of these feats were performed.
		1490	This image is entitled “The Assumption of the Virgin” by ANON. Painted c.1490. Once again notice the discoidal clouds.
	Greece	15th century	This is a sketch of an untitled 15th century Italian fresco from Mount Athos, Greece . It depicts the Apostle John dictating the Biblical book of Revelation to a young disciple. In the upper lefthand corner is a segment of a glowing oval object from which a beam of light is aimed at the head of John. In the upper right hand corner is a typical disk-shaped object which is emitting a converging light beam. Maybe someone has an original of this fresco?
	Kiev	15th century	This is a 15th century fresco from Kiev. Seems to show Jesus in a rocket type device.
	Bruges	1538	This is a tapestry called Summer’s triumph and was created in Bruges in 1538. It now resides at the Bayerisches National Museum. You can clearly see several disc shaped objects in the top of the tapestry. Someone has speculated that they are islands, if so, then these islands are floating in the sky!
		1557	The picture on the left is from a book entitled Prodigiorum Ac Ostentorum Chronicon by Conrad Lycosthenes (1518-1561). Basel: Henricpteri, 1557. It depicts a UFO sighting in Arabia in 1479. The book is held at the Australian Museum Research Library.
	Nuremburg	15th century	This image is of an actual sighting that occurred in Nuremburg on the 14th April 1561. It appeared in a local broadsheet and was a woodcut by Hans Glasser. The globes, crosses and tubes began to fight one another, and this went on for an hour. Then they all fell to earth, as if on fire, and faded slowly away producing a lot of steam. Afterwards a black spear-like object was seen, and the whole event was taken to be a divine warning. Held at the Wickiana Collection, Zurich Central Library.
	Switzerland	1566	This broadsheet picture by Samuel Coccius illustrates a UFO sighting over Basel, Switzerland in 1566. ‘Large black Globes’ appeared in the skies. It is held at the Wickiana Collection, Zurich Central Library.
	San Pietro	1600	The painting on the right is by Bonaventura Salimbeni entitled “Glorification of the Eucharist”, painted in 1600. Notice the Sputnik satellite device. It hangs in the church of San Lorenzo in San Pietro. It is considered by some to be a stylised representation of the Earth but I have included it here as it still looks interesting.
	Holland	1660	1660. The illustration depicts a sighting by two Dutch ships in the North Sea of an object moving slowly in the sky. It appeared to be made by two disks of different size. The source for this account is one of the books entitled :”Theatrum Orbis Terrarum” by Admiral Blaeu. These books were compilations of articles by different authors and consisted of detailed accounts of long engagements at sea, cartography information etc.
	France	16th century	This is a French jeton minted in 1680, a coin-like educational tool that was commonly used to help people count money, or sometimes used as a money substitute for playing games. It is about the size of a U.S. quarter-dollar and similar to thousands of other jetons with different religious and educational designs that were produced and used in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries. It appears to commemorate a UFO sighting of a wheel like object. Some researchers feel it represents the Biblical Ezekiel’s wheel. The Latin inscription ‘OPPORTUNUS ADEST’ translates as ‘It is here at an opportune time”.
	Germany	1697	More wheels! This picture shows a UFO sighting over Hamburg, Germany 4 November 1697. The objects were described as “two glowing wheels”.
	Mtskheta, Georgia	17th century	This is a 17th century fresco and is located in the SvetishoveliCathedral in Mtskheta, Georgia. Notice the two saucer shaped objects either side of Christ.In the two blow ups, you can see they contain faces.
	?	1710	This image is by Flemish artist Aert De Gelder and is entitled “The Baptism of Christ” It was painted in 1710 and hangs in the Fitzwilliam Museum , Cambridge. A disk shaped object is shining beams of light down on John the Baptist and Jesus.
	?	1742	This is a scan from vol. 42 of the Philosophical Transactions 1742 describing a sighting that occured on the 16th December 1742. Alongside is a contemporary reconstruction depicting the object with the colours described.
	England	1783	The illustration on the left depicts a sighting that occurred at 9.45pm on the evening of 18th August 1783 when four witnesses on the terrace of Windsor Castle observed a luminous object in the skies of the Home Counties of England. The sighting was recorded the following year in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. According to this report, witnesses observed an oblong cloud moving more or less parallel to the horizon. Under this cloud could be seen a luminous object which soon became spherical, brilliantly lit, which came to a halt; This strange sphere seemed at first to be pale blue in colour but then its luminosity increased and soon it set off again towards the east. Then the object changed direction and moved parallel to the horizon before disappearing to the south-east ; the light it gave out was prodigious; it lit us everything on the ground.; The image was captured in this by Thomas Sandby (a founder of the Royal Academy) and his brother Paul, both of whom witnessed the event.
	Japan	1803	This is an illustration from a book “Ume No Chiri (Dust of Apricot)” published in 1803. A foreign ship and crew witnessed at Haratonohama (Haratono Seashore) in Hitachi no Kuni (Ibaragi Prefecture), Japan this strange object. According to the explanation in the drawing, the outershell was made of iron and glass, and strange letters shown in this drawing were seen inside the ship.
	Australia	1837	These are illustrations from a book by Lt. Grey. “Journals of Two Expeditions of Discovery in North-West and Western Australia 1837, 1838, & 1839″, www.hesperianpress.com. He led an expedition in the 19th century to some caves near the Glenelg River region of Kimberley, Northern Australia. They are considered to be pre-aboriginal.

Unidentified Flying Objects – The Reality, The Cover-Up And The Truth

(Before It's News)

Unidentified Flying Objects – The Reality, The Cover-Up And The Truth

by John Black

Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs as they are commonly known, have been witnessed by millions of people all over the world and have been recorded in history books, myths, legends and traditions for thousands of years. However, many accounts that are recorded in ancient texts are dismissed as mere myths and legends, while UFO sightings that have taken place in the last few centuries have been classified as misinterpretations of natural phenomena, illusions, or conspiracy theories.

History has shown us time and again that a plethora of so-called ‘myths’ have their basis in reality. It is possible, and indeed likely, that stories and legends were a way for people to explain real—and perhaps perplexing—events using the knowledge and beliefs of their time. In support of this theory, a number of events described in mythology, which were once considered mere fairy tales, have now been proven through archaeology to have existed. A famous example is the city Troy, which is central to Homer’s ‘The Iliad’. Long considered to be a city of myth, Heinrich Schliemann’s discovery of the actual site in 1868 elevated it to a place in history. Nevertheless, the remainder of The Iliad is still viewed as a myth and fantasy without any serious attempts being made to investigate whether or not there may be more truth behind the tale. The same goes for many accounts of ‘flying machines’, which we find reference to in countless mythologies from numerous different cultures around the world.

Many cultures contain pictorial and written records of ‘flying machines’, yet these are usually dismissed as myth and legend.

It is common to see people selectively decide what is real and what is not and all of this on the unsubstantiated assumption that ancient people were primitive and had little to no knowledge compared to us today. On the contrary, many ancient civilizations, like the Sumerians, Indus Valley, and Egyptians existed with complex social structures, legal systems, art, astronomy, mathematics, and technology, some of which is still not fully understood today. The Antikythera Mechanism, for example, is a 2,200-year-old mechanical device that is still not completely understood despite decades of research by top scientists around the world.

Ancient Astronaut Theory

The topic of flying objects and supernatural beings from out of our world is one in which we find multiple references in mythologies. All of these myths and legends, along with archaeological evidence such as rock art depictions, have created a wave of theories that gave birth to the ‘Ancient Astronaut’ perspective, which links all of these ancient references and depictions to UFOs, and posits that extra-terrestrials visited Earth and made contact with humans in antiquity and prehistory, influencing the development of human cultures, technologies, and religions.

Unfortunately, there are numerous charlatans who have tried to ‘cash in’ on this movement for profit or publicity, or who have diminished it with caricatures of little green men, resulting in the ancient astronaut perspective being widely criticized and attacked for its lack of credibility. Consequently, what is in fact a plausible and possible explanation for what we see in ancient art and texts, is now rarely examined by scholars, who fear being ridiculed or having their professional career seriously undermined.

UFO sightings in recent history

But let’s leave the ancient past for a while and examine just the last 80 years of human history. Millions of people all over the globe have witnessed unidentified flying objects. Many have been recorded in detailed reports witnessed by police, pilots, astronauts, government officials, pilots, military personnel and, of course, ordinary citizens. Some of the more well-known cases were witnessed by thousands of people at one time. Historical records make it evident that UFO appearances magnified during and after World War II, including the example of the famous ‘Foo Fighters’.

While most sightings can be explained either by celestial phenomena, airplanes, planets, weather phenomena, military exercises, or in some cases drug use or mental instability, there still exists a small percentage that cannot be accounted for by any of these explanations. This is what makes the phenomena important and not to be ignored, particularly considering that sightings are frequently reported around military bases and airfields and are therefore, at the very least, a matter of both national security and air safety.

It is an undeniable fact that there are cases of unidentified objects in our skies. It has been acknowledged by the major governments from all over the world simply through the very fact that official research has been conducted on the matter in the US, UK, Russia, Europe, China, South America, and many others. All of this research, in every single case, concluded that there is a percentage of phenomena that cannot be explained.

In the past decade, many countries have declassified their UFO research files, releasing thousands of documents through the Freedom of Information Act and making numerous UFO cases available in the public domain. One recently released document from the UFO files in Britain, revealed how Churchill, concerned about the UFO issue, ordered a shutdown of information for at least 50 years to prevent mass panic and the potential to undermine religious beliefs. The document in question was also published on the BBC news site in 2010.

By doing careful research on the topic, passing over obvious scam and fake stories, it is clear to see that unidentified flying objects do exist. So the question is not whether they exist or not, but rather, what are they? Are they of terrestrial or extra-terrestrial origin? And what is their purpose?

UFOs and the limits of science

Many prominent scientists have already stated that other civilizations must exist in the Universe, and that it would be statistically impossible for this not to be the case. However, with our knowledge of science and technology today, we cannot yet support the means for interstellar travel, and since we have not discovered intelligent life in our solar system, the assumption is made that there must be no way that extra-terrestrials could have travelled to Earth. However, this argument is of course flawed because it is based within the framework of our own understanding of the universe, and does not take into account the capabilities of civilizations that may be millions of years ahead of our own. It also hinges on the following assumptions:

We know everything about physics and reality and therefore there is no way that such distant travel can be achieved.
We are using our means to try to contact other civilizations (e.g. SETI’s attempts to pick up radio or communication signals) and since we don’t perceive any signals of OUR type, nothing must exist.
We are looking for organic forms of life exactly like us and for planets with the exact same conditions as ours.

It is clear that these arguments show the arrogance of mankind, a mankind that may just be an infant in the Universe. And this is not new. During the history of humanity, in every single period of time, we believed that we knew the truth, only to have it replaced later on by new ‘knowledge’.

• There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now. All that remains is more and more precise measurement, Lord Kelvin, 1901, physicist

Quantum physics, still a relatively new and unexplored field in Science, has shown that reality could be completely different to what we believe it to be. Powerful telescopes have shown distant planets in solar systems that could possibly sustain life. Theories of wormholes and warp drives have shown that at a theoretical level we could achieve interstellar travel. Yes, we would require incredible amounts of energy to even think of trying to achieve something like this, so according to our standards today it is impossible to achieve, but in theory it can be achieved.

• “It now seems quite clear that Earth is not the only inhabited planet. There is evidence that the bulk of the stars in the sky have planetary systems. Recent research concerning the origin of life on Earth suggests that the physical and chemical processes leading to the origin of life occur rapidly in the early history of the majority of planets within our Milky Way galaxy–perhaps as many as a million–are inhabited by technical civilizations in advance of our own. Interstellar space flight is far beyond our present technical capabilities, but there seems to be no fundamental physical objections to preclude, from our own vantage point, the possibility of its development by other civilizations.” Carl Sagan, Ph.D. (Late Professor of Astronomy and Space Sciences, Cornell University)

Reluctance to engage with the UFO subject

The reason that the scientific community is not dealing seriously with UFOs is because the topic has been extensively ridiculed both by the media and in academic circles, with false information spread everywhere. For similar reasons, military personnel, astronauts, pilots, and other categories of professionals do not want to talk because, either they have been forced to sign confidentiality agreements, or because of fear that their careers would be destroyed. This is why we have seen many examples of ‘death bed confessions’.

One such case was with astronaut Gordon Cooper, who told the world about his experience encountering a UFO during his flight in the Mercury capsule in 1963. Before he died he stated: “for many years I have lived with a secret, in a secrecy imposed on all specialists in astronautics. I can now reveal that every day, in the USA, our radar instruments capture objects of form and composition unknown to us”.

While great efforts have been made to ridicule and disparage anyone who lends support to the existence of UFOs, the fact remains that there are numerous high-profile cases that are supported by solid evidence, and which should not be dismissed.

Recorded UFO sightings with extensive witness support

Below I present a very limited list constituting strong evidence for the existence of unidentified flying objects in the last 60 years.

November 1942 – LA Incident, known as the Battle of Los Angeles

It all happened in the early hours of February 25 in 1942. An aircraft flew over LA County that sparked an air raid alert (it was in the midst of WWII). Searchlights and guns were locked onto the aircraft for about an hour. The picture below appeared in the LA Times in a story about the Battle of LA It clearly shows a night time defensive response to an air raid. The aircraft was not hostile and obviously was not damaged by the attack. The Government stated that the craft they were shooting at was unidentified.

The Battle of Los Angeles UFO Incident

December 1980 – Rendlesham Forest Incident, Suffolk UK

This incident involved a group of American servicemen stationed at a military base in Suffolk that contained a storage centre with nuclear weapons. There had been three consecutive night of sighting objects in the sky over the base, in some cases shining a light down upon the nuclear weapons storage. On the third night, approximately two dozen servicemen were sent into the forest to investigate one set of mysterious lights. The men reported seeing a spacecraft on the ground in close proximity to them and three extra-terrestrial beings. One serviceman claimed to have touched the craft. The whole incident was filmed and photographed by one of the servicemen, but all photos and videos were removed by the US military. When the British Government released the UFO files, the Rendlesham incident papers were missing – as reported on BBC.

November 1986, Japan Air Lines Flight 1628 over Alaska

In November, 1986, a Japanese crew of a jumbo freighter aircraft witnessed three enormous unidentified objects while flying over Alaska, USA. This sighting gained international attention when the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced that it was going to officially investigate this sighting because the Air Route Traffic Control Center in Anchorage, Alaska, had reported that the UFO had been detected on radar. The UFOs in this case were tracked on both ground and airborne radar, witnessed by experienced airline pilots, and confirmed by a FAA Division Chief.

April 1990 – Belgium UFO wave, Petit Rechain Belgium

The Belgium UFO wave began in November 1989. The events of 29 November would be documented by no less than thirty different groups of witnesses, and three separate groups of police officers. All of the reports related to a large object flying at low altitude. The craft was of a flat, triangular shape, with lights underneath. This giant craft did not make a sound as it slowly moved across the landscape of Belgium. The Belgium UFO wave peaked with events on the night of 30/31 March 1990. On that night, unknown objects were tracked on radar, chased by two Belgian Air Force F16s, photographed, and were sighted by an estimated 13,500 people on the ground – 2,600 of whom filed written statements describing in detail what they had seen. Following the incident, the Belgian air force released a report detailing the events of that night.

March 1997 – Phoenix Lights, Arizona, US

The Phoenix Lights (also identified as “Lights over Phoenix”) was a UFO sighting which occurred in Phoenix, Arizona, and Sonora, Mexico on Thursday, March 13, 1997. Lights of varying descriptions were seen by thousands of people between 19:30 and 22:30 MST, in a space of about 300 miles (480 km), from the Nevada line, through Phoenix, to the edge of Tucson. Witnesses claim to have observed a huge square-shaped UFO, containing five spherical lights or possibly light-emitting engines. Fife Symington, the governor at the time, was one witness to this incident; he later called the object “otherworldly.”

October 2004 – Osaka airport, Japan

On the night of August 30, a cluster of multi-colored lights was seen floating in the sky above Osaka. Several people reported to Twitter that they saw a group of lights forming a triangular shape and flashing green, red and white in the night sky above Izumi city in Osaka Prefecture. The sightings caused a commotion on Twitter after one user wrote: “Everyone in Osaka, go outside! There’s a UFO!” prompting others to grab their cameras and snap up photos of mysterious luminous object.

November 2006, O-Hare Airport, USA

At approximately 16:15 CST on Tuesday November 7, 2006, federal authorities at Chicago O’Hare International Airport received a report that a group of twelve airport employees were witnessing a metallic, saucer-shaped craft hovering over Gate C-17.

The object was first spotted by a ramp employee who was pushing back United Airlines Flight 446, which was departing Chicago for Charlotte, North Carolina. The employee apprised Flight 446’s crew of the object above their aircraft. It is believed that both the pilot and co-pilot also witnessed the object.

Several independent witnesses outside of the airport also saw the object. According to the Chicago Tribune’s Jon Hilkevitch, “The disc was visible for approximately two minutes and was seen by close to a dozen United Airlines employees, ranging from pilots to supervisors, who heard chatter on the radio and raced out to view it.”

May 2007, UFO Fleets, Lima, Peru

The incident took place on May 2007 at 14.00 local time in Lima Peru. A series of moving lights resembling an armada of flying objects appeared in the skies. The story was reported on the news and was seen by thousands of people.

UFO Fleets, Lima, Peru

July 2010 – Xiaoshan Airport, China

An unidentified flying object that disrupted air traffic in Hangzhou for an hour on Wednesday, 10th of July 2010. A flight crew preparing for descent first detected the object around 8:40 p.m. and notified the air traffic control department. Aviation authorities responded within minutes, grounding outbound flights and diverting inbound ones to airports in Ningbo and Wuxi. Eighteen flights were affected. A spokesman from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) confirmed to ABC News that the matter is under investigation. He declined to disclose further details. A day after the sighting, however, an anonymous source told China Daily that authorities already discovered the identity of the UFO after an investigation but could not publically disclose the information because “there was a military connection.”

Disclosure

Many would say that the above examples constitute irrefutable proof that extra-terrestrial UFOs exist. So why isn’t the public told about it? Imagine the implications that disclosure would have and what it would mean. Acknowledgment of extra-terrestrial civilizations having visited Earth would mean that many of the myths and legends of the past are in fact based on reality. It would suggests that humanity has been influenced for millennia by other-worldly beings, beings that in the past were considered gods. Disclosure would entirely topple the status quo and the balance of powers in society, and turn upside down what we know about the history of mankind.

The acknowledgement of the UFO phenomena is an event with the power to bring a global revolution in every sector of our lives today – technology and energy supply, communication and environmental concerns, society and religion. Is this what governments and corporations are afraid of – a shift in balance and their loss of their positions of power and control? Or is it that the powers that be are afraid of re-writing our human history?

• “When the long awaited solution to the UFO problem comes, I believe that it will prove to be not merely the next small step in the march of science, but a mighty and totally unexpected quantum leap.” Dr J. Allen Hynek, Scientific Advisor to the U.S. Air Force

Gigantische magmakamer ontdekt onder Yellowstone - HLN.be

Bron: The Guardian, Washington Post 

Een hotspring in Yellowstone. © thinkstock.

Supervulkaan Diep onder het Amerikaanse nationaal park Yellowstone bevindt zich een gigantisch, voordien ongekend, reservoir met heet, deels gesmolten gesteente - groot genoeg om de Grand Canyon elf keer te vullen. Dat besluiten wetenschappers van de universiteit van Utah na een seismologisch onderzoek.

Yellowstone strekt zich uit langs het grensgebied van de Amerikaanse staten Wyoming, Idaho en Montana en is een van de meest dynamische vulkanische systemen in de wereld. Je vindt er geisers, warme modderpoelen, warme bronnen en rookpluimen. Het park ligt bovenop een supervulkaan, die al drie catastrofale uitbarstingen kende: twee miljoen jaar, 1,2 miljoen jaar en 640.000 jaar geleden.

Wetenschappers wisten al dat zich onder Yellowtone een grote magmakamer bevond, die de drie uitbarstingen gevoed heeft. Vermoedens over het bestaan van een tweede magmakamer waren er al langer, maar konden tot nog toe niet hard gemaakt worden.

De nieuwe studie, gepubliceerd in het vakblad Science, biedt voor het eerst een compleet beeld van de vulkanische 'leidingen' in Yellowstone van de aardmantel tot de oppervlakte. Daaruit blijkt dat er nog een tweede, dieper reservoir is dat nog 4,5 keer groter is dan het eerste.

• "Uitbarsting supervulkaan Yellowstone zou hele VS bedekken met as"

Geen grotere dreiging

De onderzoekers maakten gebruik van een techniek die seismische tomografie genoemd wordt en vergelijkbaar is met een CT-scan van het lichaam. Aan de hand van seismische golven die zich dwars door de aarde bewegen, kunnen wetenschappers analyseren welke dichtheid de gesteenten onder het oppervlak hebben en zo de bodem in kaart brengen.

Het magmareservoir dat op die manier ontdekt werd, ligt volgens de onderzoekers 19 tot 45 kilometer onder Yellowstone en heeft een volume van 48.000 kubieke kilometer, of 11,2 keer het volume van de Grand Canyon in Arizona. De magmakamer is gevuld met heet, vast en sponsachtig gesteente. Delen ervan - in totaal twee procent - zijn gesmolten.

Het bestaan van een tweede magmakamer verhoogt de dreiging van een vulkaanuitbarsting niet, zo zeggen de onderzoekers. "Maar onze bevindingen voorzien ons wel van de informatie die nodig is om beter te begrijpen hoe magma zich van de aardmantel naar de oppervlakte verplaatst", zegt seismoloog Jamie Farrell van de universiteit van Utah.

Beide magmakamers bevinden zich boven een mantelpluim: die brengt gesmolten gesteente uit de aardmantel naar boven tot zo'n 64 kilometer onder de oppervlakte. Van daar worden hete substanties naar het oppervlak gevoerd.

Ook UFO's zijn tekenen van deze tijd... ( Video )

Voor ons zijn UFO’s eigenlijk een vanzelfsprekend iets, maar voor het gros van de wereld nog steeds iets om je over te verkneukelen.

Dus krijg je oerdomme opmerkingen zoals: Waarom zou een UFO helemaal naar de aarde afreizen om in een actieve vulkaan te duiken?


Wanneer je op mainstream nieuwskanalen en aan hen geliëerde pseudo alternatieve websites de volgende zin ziet staan dan zakt als UFO onderzoeker je broek af: 

Sommigen beweren dat het gaat om een UFO, al is niet duidelijk waarom een UFO helemaal naar de aarde zou afreizen om in een actieve vulkaan te duiken.

Daarmee heb je eigenlijk in een notendop hoe het gros van de bevolking tegen het fenomeen aankijkt en hoe weinig ze erover weten.

Allemaal naar aanleiding van dat er diverse UFO’s zijn waargenomen bij de eerder deze week uitgebarsten vulkaan Calbuco in Chili.

Al vele jaren lang worden met regelmaat UFO's waargenomen bij al dan niet actieve vulkanen. Niet alleen dat, ook zijn talloze opnames beschikbaar waarbij ze verdwijnen of tevoorschijn komen uit vulkaankraters.

Het heeft allemaal te maken met energie. Op de één of andere manier tanken UFO’s als het ware energie in of rond de vulkanen, net zoals ze dat doen rond onweersbuien en dergelijke.

Dan sinds kort het fenomeen waarbij elektrisch geladen wolken worden gebruikt als een soort dimensieportaal voor vertrekkende en aankomende ufo’s.

Dat geeft een heel ander beeld dan dat UFO’s doelloos naar de aarde komen om vervolgens in een actieve vulkaan te duiken en daar onzinnige afstanden voor zouden afleggen.

Dat alles om energie draait, bewijzen ook de opnames van de enorme UFO’s die als het ware tanken bij de zon en/of deze ook inzetten als portaal.

Allemaal dus volkomen logisch dat je bij de Calbuca vulkaan UFO’s ziet verschijnen. En dat niet op één dag, maar op meerdere.

Het begint al woensdag, direct na de uitbarsting, wanneer er 5 stuks met grote snelheid de aswolk boven de krater induiken.

Hieronder volgt de video-opname waarin dat zichtbaar is. Tenminste als je heel goed kijkt want we praten hier bijna letterlijk over de snelheid als van een bliksemschicht waarmee dit gebeurt.



De volgende dag verschijnen er pal naast de rook/aswolk twee grote fel verlichte UFO’s zoals je op de volgende foto kunt zien:

En verder uitvergroot:

De bovenstaande UFO's verschenen niet als een flits in beeld zoals die hierboven, maar bleven ongeveer vijf minuten hangen, waarna de lichten opeens doofden.



Dezelfde dag werden er wederom twee waargenomen. Er bestaat een grote kans dat dit dezelfde twee zijn als in de opname hierboven.

Wat opvallend te noemen is in de volgende opname is dat ze hier geen enkele moeite doen om zich te verbergen, terwijl dat normaal gesproken wel het geval is.



Hoewel UFO’s al jarenlang rondom vulkanen worden gesignaleerd, lijkt het dat ze “brutaler” worden, in die zin, dat ze eigenlijk lijken te willen worden ontdekt.

Waar mainstream en geliëerde nieuwsbronnen verhalen over UFO’s blijven publiceren als nietszeggende sensatiestukjes, zou het verstandig zijn voor de rest van de bevolking om het fenomeen te waarderen voor wat het is: tekenen van onze tijd.

Tekenen dat er dingen gebeuren op aarde die wij nog niet eerder hebben meegemaakt. Tekenen, dat wij in bijzondere tijden leven.

Vervagen de grenzen tussen dimensies steeds verder? ( Video )

Enkele weken geleden schrokken de inwoners van een dorp in Kazachstan van een vreemde zwarte ring die boven hun hoofden verscheen.

Deze ring hing ongeveer een kwartier in de lucht voordat hij oploste. Het lijkt op rook en is reukloos. Het is iets waar men geen verklaring voor kan vinden.


Natuurlijk worden er allerlei “logische” oorzaken aangevoerd zoals machines die een soort ringen kunnen maken of vuurwerk wat lijkt op wat men boven Kazachstan waarnam.

Maar, er beginnen steeds meer stemmen op te gaan die zeggen dat we met die ringen wel degelijk met iets paranormaals te maken hebben.

Het verschijnsel is ook relatief nieuw. De afgelopen jaren worden deze “ringen” regelmatig waargenomen en misschien vormen zij onderdeel van het grotere geheel waarbij grenzen tussen dimensies steeds meer gaan vervagen.

Wij hebben dat de laatste jaren ook kunnen zien is dat UFO’s ze gebruikmaken van dimensieportalen die eruit zien als onweerswolken.

Mogelijk hebben deze ringen op een bepaalde manier dezelfde soort functie.

De maker van onderstaande video gaat wat dieper in op deze materie en is er heilig van overtuigd dat het verschijnen van dit soort ringen alles te maken heeft met het vervagen van dimensies.

Unknown lights over Aliso Viejo, California – August 2014

Here’s one older footage that was just submitted to MUFON. This one was filmed over Aliso Viejo in California on 25th August 2015.

Witness report: Notice objects glowing in the distance when getting off exit in Aliso Viejo. Three bright lights appeared stationary and in triangle formation. Pulsing. Eventually two disappeared, but the third remained in the sky for a long time in excess of 20 minutes. I have pictures and video of event from the balcony of my house. Heard lots of helicopters in area too. The last picture is taken from thru the windshield of my car and shows the difference compared to a traffic light.

Man Claims He Has Seen A UFO Every Night Over Bakersfield, CA

A witness shared a UFO video reportedly taken in the sky above Rosedale, California. Joseph Guzman said that he saw it every night in the same place. He contacted local CBS affiliate KBAK to seek for help in identifying the aerial object.

Guzman explained that he can’t believe nobody else saw what he has been seeing. He said that anybody can see it when they drive down Rosedale, anywhere in Bakersfield and look up at around 7:30 or 7:45 towards Rosedale.

He described the object as unidentified flying object that moves and glows. He said that it had a green and orange light.

KBAK posted the UFO sighting video on Facebook, and it received a lot of responses. President of the Antelope Valley Astronomy Club based in Palmdale, California, Frank Moore, suggested that the UFO is the planet Venus.

But the UFO has its top cut off, which many viewers rule out the possibility of it as the second nearest planet to the sun.

Moore has the explanation saying that some of the images taken by the witness show part of the disc cut off, so it appears flat on one side. Like the moon, Venus goes through phases where several amounts of the disc are illuminated at various times by the sun, Moore continued. He said that the disc of Venus right now is illuminated 70.87%, which is consistent in some of the witness’ images.

Moore also suggested Sirius as a possible explanation for Guzman’s UFO. He said that Sirius often appears to twinkle or change colors as a variable multiple star.

But Guzman doesn’t accept both possibilities. He’s convinced that he spotted a craft of some kind on a nightly basis. Though he’s not convinced it’s an alien, he wants to know the truth. But if in case it is an extraterrestrial, Guzman wants it to come down and have a coffee or something.

Rosedale is on the western outskirts of Bakersfield, a city that has repeatedly been mentionedin the news recently because of its various UFO sightings.

Ronald Reagan et les OVNIS

Dans son nouveau livre, l'ufologue britannique sceptique, David Clarke, revient sur l'intérêt que portait Ronald Reagan au phénomène OVNI. Une fascination que l'on retrouve même dans ses discours officiels...

Mikhaïl Gorbatchev et Ronald Reagan à la Maison Blanche le 8 décembre 1987.                                 © Reuters

Dans son nouveau livre dans «How UFOs Conquered the World: The History of a Modern Myth» (Comment les OVNIs ont conquis le monde : Histoire d’un mythe moderne),  l’ancien journaliste et ufologue sceptique David Clarke examine comment depuis 1947 et l’invention du mot « soucoupe volante», les OVNIs se sont peu à peu immiscés dans toutes les couches de la société, depuis les médias populaires jusqu’aux plus hauts cercles politiques et même dans le bureau ovale.  Si Jimmy Carter est le seul président américain qui a admis publiquement avoir vu un OVNI,  c’est Ronald Reagan qui a entretenu la fascination la plus constante pour le sujet.

L’intérêt de Reagan pour les OVNIs n’est pas une révélation et la plupart des anecdotes rapportées par David Clarke sont connues de longue date. Ainsi, en 1985, le président américain, lors d’un sommet à Genève, s’est adressé à Gorbatchev pour lui dire qu’il était certain que les deux superpuissances collaboreraient en cas d’invasion extraterrestre.

David Clarke rappelle aussi que Ronald Reagan avait pris l’habitude d’ajouter à ses discours des allusions à la menace venue de l’espace, dans les dernières années de son mandat. Au grand désespoir de son conseiller à la Sécurité nationale de de 1987 à 89, Colin Powell qui s’empressait de supprimer toutes «les références interplanétaires» chères au Président. Chaque fois que Colin Powell découvrait une nouvelle évocation d’une éventuelle «menace alien» «Colin Powell levait les yeux au ciel en disant ‘Oh non… Pas encore les petits hommes verts…’». 

Un mémo d'un conseiller anoté de la main de de Ronald Reagan daté du 17 septembre 1987. Le président demande que l'on inclue dans un discours sa "fantaisie" selon laquelle "toutes nos différences seraient bien vite oubliées si les humains étaient menacés par des créatures extraterrestres". "Votre 'fantaisie' a été ajoutée' " répondra le conseiller Rhett Dawson. © DR

Tous ces détails et bien d’autres figurent sur le site www.presidentialufo.com , une mine d’informations plus ou moins fiables sur les relations entre les présidents américains et le dossier OVNI. 

Fidèle à sa marotte, David Clarke est convaincu que l’obsession de Ronald Reagan pour les OVNIs provient de sa première passion, le cinéma et un film en particulier: «Le jour où la Terre s’arrêta» le chef d’oeuvre SF de Robert Wise, sorti en 1951.  

Selon David Clarke, le futur président aurait été durablement marqué par ce film où un extraterrestre débarque sut terre pour convaincre les humains de renoncer aux armes nucléaires : «Pour une génération qui vivait dans la peur de la bombe, ce message de paix venu des étoiles délivré par des anges technologiques était une alternative séduisante à l’équilibre angoissant de la guerre froide». En 1982, il a même invité Steven Spielberg à la Maison Blanche pour une projection privée de ET: «Nancy et moi tenons à vous dire combien nous avons apprécié «ET» qui est vraiment un classique du cinéma. Il faut vous féliciter pour votre formidable travail…» écrit le Président dans sa lettre au réalisateur. 

Ronald Reagan aurait vu un OVNI à deux reprise

David Clarke est depuis sept ans le commentateur officiel de la publication en plusieurs étapes des archives OVNIs du ministère de la Défense britannique. Sceptique, il estime que les vagues d’observations d’OVNIs découlent directement de l’engouement pour des films et des séries comme Rencontres du 3e Type et surtout X-Files. «Les OVNIs constituent avant tout un phénomène social et culturel» écrit-il dans le Guardian. 

Toutefois, le postulat de David Clarke, un peu trop systématique, passe sous silence une autre source possible de l’intérêt de Reagan pour les OVNIs: le fait qu’il en a vu, sans doute à deux reprises. La seconde observation, la mieux documentée, serait survenue en 1974 à bord d’un avion, alors que le futur président était encore Gouverneur de Californie. Ronald Reagan a raconté cet incident à un interlocuteur digne de foi, Norman C. Millar, chef du bureau de Washington du Wall Street Journal, puis rédacteur en chef du Los Angeles Times. Voici ce que Reagan lui aurait raconté: «En regardant par le hublot, j’ai vu une lumière blanche. Elle zigzaguait autour de l’avion. J’ai rejoint le pilote dans le cockpit et je lui ai demandé ‘Vous aviez déjà vu ça avant?’. Il était sous le choc et il m’a répondu: ‘non’. Nous l’avons suivi pendant plusieurs minutes, puis, à notre plus grande surprise, c’est parti d’un coup dans le ciel à toute vitesse» Norman C. Millar commente:  «Ronald Reagan me racontait cette observation avec fougue mais soudain il s'est souvenu qu'il parlait à un journaliste. Son visage s'est fermé et il est passé à un autre sujet.»  Les confidences de Reagan au journaliste ont été confirmées par le pilote, Bill Paynter, qui précise: «Nous n’avons pas rédigé de rapport parce qu’à l’époque si on racontait qu’on avait vu un OVNI on passait pour un dingue.» 

Cette observation, quelle que soit sa nature, a sans douté été plus marquante que la vision d'un film de science-fiction, même excellent.

These 7 Conspiracy Theories Sounded Crazy, Until They Were Proven To Be True

April 25, 2015 - Everyone has that one friend who's a little too into conspiracy theories. While it can be fun to think that the world is run by a handful of master manipulators, these conspiracy theories are just that — theories. Nothing more.

On the other hand, conspiracy theories only sound crazy when they aren't totally true.

Here are a bunch of former conspiracy theories that ended up being completely true. (Just don't show this to your friend who's obsessed with 9/11, or you'll never hear the end of it.)

1. GM Streetcar Conspiracy.

There was a rumor that between 1938 and 1950, officials at General Motors were buying up train and light rail systems in cities so that people would have to buy more cars. The only falsity in this theory turned out to be that it wasn't just GM that was in on this ploy, but several other companies, as well.

2. General James Wilkinson.



Although a hero during the War of 1812, it was always rumored that James Wilkinson was making deals with the Spanish, even when he achieved the highest rank in the American Army. When he died, it was revealed that he was indeed on the Spanish payroll. At one point, he even tried to convince Kentucky to secede from the Union and become a Spanish colony.

3. Katyn Massacre.



In 1940, Stalin ordered the massacre of 20,000 Polish military officers, and used the Nazis as the obvious scapegoat. It wasn't until 1990 that the Soviet Union began investigating the possibility that they were behind the attacks. It was confirmed in 2010 that they really were the ones who ordered the killings.

4. North Korean Abductions.



Although denied by the North Korean government at the time, between 1977 and 1983, North Korean agents began abducting Japanese citizens. The Japanese government saw it as a conspiracy theory at first, until damning evidence was uncovered. In the end, they got North Korea to admit to abducting 13 of their citizens. There are believed to have been hundreds more.

5. Watergate.



While trying to report on the Watergate scandal, reporters were harassed and their phones were tapped in an effort by the Nixon administration to cover up what ended up being one of the most shockingly true conspiracy theories in American history.

6. Jimmy Savile.



For decades, there were rumors that British TV personality Jimmy Savile was molesting children, but it wasn't until his death that hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse (and even necrophilia) against him appeared. It was soon discovered that not only was Savile a predator, but he might have been the most dangerous one England had ever seen.

7. Valentin Bondarenko, "the Lost Cosmonaut."



There have been rumors that Yuri Gagarin wasn't the first man in space, but only the first man to survive space. The allegation here is that other cosmonauts made it up into space, but because they died, their existence was erased by the Russian government. Valentin Bondarenko was a cosmonaut-in-training when he had an accident in a low-pressure altitude chamber and died. The Russian government cut him out of all the photographs and pretended he never existed until 1980. So while Bondarenko never made it to space, it might be possible that he wasn't the only fallen hero the Russians decided to hide.

While there is good evidence that crises like 9/11 and the Kennedy assassination went down exactly how we were told, the same could be said about these events before the truth was known.

UFO Abduction: Pilot and Plane Disappear Without a Trace

On October 21, 1978, 20-year-old pilot Frederick Valentich disappeared while flying his Cessna 182L over Bass Strait in Australia. No trace of him or his airplane were ever found.

Although it is not uncommon for pilots to suffer accidents and crash into the sea, the Valentich case is unsettling due to the radio transmission between him and Melbourne Air Traffic control right before he vanished.

Valentich radioed the control tower, asking if there were any known aircraft flying near his plane and received a negative answer. He then communicated that there was an unknown aircraft roughly 1,000 feet (300 meters) above him. The shiny, metallic object was illuminated by four bright green landing lights and it rapidly approached Valentich. It orbited around him several times, getting close and zipping by at high speed, leading Valentich to believe it was intentionally playing with him.

Valentich told Air Traffic control his engine started running roughly and sent his final transmission at 19:12:09. “That strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again (open microphone for two seconds). It is hovering and it’s not an aircraft,” were his final words. What followed were 17 seconds of a metallic scraping sound then the radio went silent.

The long investigation that followed turned up no evidence; no plane wreckage and no body.

Many believe Frederick Valentich was killed or abducted by a UFO and this hypothesis seems to be supported by a wave of sightings being reported in the six weeks prior to his disappearance. Interestingly enough, most of them involved an “erratically moving green light in the sky.”

Below is the full transcript of the communication between Valentich and Melbourne Air Traffic control:

1906:14 DSJ Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet. Is there any known traffic below five thousand?

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, no known traffic.

DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet, I am, seems to be a large aircraft below five thousand.

1906:44 FS Delta Sierra Juliet, What type of aircraft is it?

DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet, I cannot affirm, it is four bright, it seems to me like landing lights.

1907 FS Delta Sierra Juliet.

1907:31 DSJ Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet, the aircraft has just passed over me at least a thousand feet above.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, and it is a large aircraft, confirmed?

DSJ Er-unknown, due to the speed it’s travelling, is there any air force aircraft in the vicinity?

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, no known aircraft in the vicinity.

1908:18 DSJ Melbourne, it’s approaching now from due east towards me.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet.

1908:41 DSJ (open microphone for two seconds.)

1908:48 DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet, it seems to me that he’s playing some sort of game, he’s flying over me two, three times at speeds I could not identify.

1909 FS Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, what is your actual level?

DSJ My level is four and a half thousand, four five zero zero.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, and you confirm you cannot identify the aircraft?

DSJ Affirmative.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, stand by.

1909:27 DSJ Melbourne, Delta Sierra Juliet, it’s not an aircraft it is (open microphone for two seconds).

1909:42 FS Delta Sierra Juliet, can you describe the -er- aircraft?

DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet, as it’s flying past it’s a long shape (open microphone for three seconds) cannot identify more than it has such speed (open microphone for three seconds). It’s before me right now Melbourne.

1910 FS Delta Sierra Juliet, roger and how large would the – er – object be?

1910:19 DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet, Melbourne, it seems like it’s stationary. What I’m doing right now is orbiting and the thing is just orbiting on top of me also. It’s got a green light and sort of metallic like, it’s all shiny on the outside.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet

1910:46 DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet (open microphone for three seconds) It’s just vanished.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet

1911 DSJ Melbourne, would you know what kind of aircraft I’ve got? Is it a military aircraft?

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, Confirm the – er ~ aircraft just vanished.

DSJ Say again.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, is the aircraft still with you?

DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet; it’s (open microphone for two seconds) now approaching from the south-west.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet

1911:50 DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet, the engine is rough-idling. I’ve got it set at twenty three twenty-four and the thing is coughing.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, what are your intentions?

DSJ My intentions are – ah – to go to King Island – ah – Melbourne. That strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again (open microphone for two seconds). It is hovering and it’s not an aircraft.

FS Delta Sierra Juliet.

1912:28 DSJ Delta Sierra Juliet. Melbourne (open microphone for seventeen seconds).”

Transmission ended.

Scientist – We Are Aliens On Our Own Planet

Scientist – We Are Aliens On Our Own Planet

by MessageToEagle

The idea that humanity is not from Earth is as controversial as it is intriguing. Are we really aliens on our own planet? If this is true where is our place of origin in the galaxy? A scientific evaluation of the evidence against man’s evolution on planet Earth has been put forward by a researcher and author. According to Dr Ellis Silver, leading environmentalist and ecologist there are a number of reasons why humans do not come from Earth.

In his book, Humans are not from Earth: a scientific evaluation of the evidence, Dr. Silver lists seventeen factors which suggest we are not from this planet. He also discusses the place of our origin and the timeline when humanity appeared on Earth.

A scientific evaluation of the evidence for and (mostly) against man’s evolution on Planet Earth, by a leading environmentalist and ecologist. Including:

• An evaluation of the thirteen leading hypotheses
• Seventeen factors which suggest we are not from Earth
• How did we get here?
• When did we get here?
• What is our home planet like?
• The most likely stars that our home planet orbits
• If the aliens are out there why can’t we detect them?
• Are we the aliens?

In this fascinating book Dr Ellis Silver provides answers to all of these questions, based on current evidence and thinking in the scientific community and elsewhere. Read more…

Dr. Silver says our physiology suggests we evolved on a planet with lower gravity.

“Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more, “Dr. Silver said in an interview with Yahoo news.

“The Earth approximately meets our needs as a species, but perhaps not as strongly as whoever brought us here initially thought,” Silver said in an interview with Yahoo news.

“Lizards can sunbathe for as long as they like – and many of them do.

We can just about get away with it for a week or two. But day after day in the sun? Forget it.

You might as well just lie down on the freeway and wait for a bus to hit you.”

We are dazzled by the sun, which is also odd, says Silver – most animals are not.

Dr. Silver claims that some chronic illnesses that plague the human race – such as bad backs – could be a sign we evolved on a world with lower gravity.

Silver points to other unique human traits – such as the fact that babies’ heads are so large that women have trouble giving birth – in earlier eras, this was often fatal for mother, child or both.

“No other truly native species on this planet has this problem,” he says. Dr. Silver also points out to the “extra” 223 genes in human beings, which are not found in any other species, and to the lack of a fossil “missing link”.

Dr. Silver also claims that the human race has defects that mark us out as being possibly “not of this world”.

“We are all chronically ill,” says Dr. Silver. “Indeed, if you can find a single person who is 100% fit and healthy and not suffering from some (perhaps hidden or unstated) condition or disorder (there’s an extensive list in the book) I would be extremely surprised – I have not been able to find anyone.”

Did we evolve on an alien world?

“I believe that many of our problems stem from the simple fact that our internal body clocks have evolved to expect a 25 hour day (this has been proven by sleep researchers), but the Earth’s day is only 24 hours. This is not a modern condition – the same factors can be traced all the way back through mankind’s history on Earth.”

Dr. Silver does not suggest one answer – but a possibility that early pre-humans such as homo erectus were crossbred with another species. He also suggests several possible origins, including Alpha Centauri.

“Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring (raw) foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more. Plus there’s a prevailing feeling among many people that they don’t belong here or that something “just isn’t right”.

“This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species. One reason for this, discussed in the book, is that the Earth might be a prison planet – since we seem to be a naturally violent species – and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”

“Humans are not from Earth was published mainly to gauge reaction from readers and to provoke thought, particularly among those who might not have considered such a possibility before.” Dr Ellis says that while his idea is an extreme evolution of that idea, it is intended to be thought-provoking and in his opinion he have had a largely positive response to it.

Now, Dr. Silver hopes that readers will contact him with more evidence for a more extensive follow-up work.

Skyception: Technical Difficulties

(Before It's News)

I want to say that I have been really beating down this anti-science pejorative that was first proposed by National Geographic. It tends to paint a very desperate and guilty picture for those scientists who are controlled to keep a lid on unexplainable things, and force a populace into believing their own brand of junk science for lack of a better explanation for all things that seem a bit out of place or paranormal.

Science is imperfect because people are imperfect — it has always been, and so it will always be. Man’s greatest paradox is the attempt by too many to interchange Magic or for the religious “God” and science replacing one with the other — when, in reality, one should lead to the other if the path is kept clear of prejudices. 

With an honest pursuit of ultimate knowledge, humanity would not be facing such a cataclysm of moral and ethical problems involving science.  But honesty and morality have been cast aside to embrace a substitute for “knowledge.”

We are waking up to the fact that the paranormal, and beliefs in paranormal events is the new normal.

As I have reported before when quoting Robert Anton Wilson, we have created this safety net we call reality and every once in a while we are reminded that a very real existential world exists and that the spooky actions we see are all part of some quantum theory that is not easily explained.

There have been many occasions where we have been told that the universe we live in is a construct, a safe haven that we have developed to hide away from the various demons and bogey man that plague our nightmares.

I am no scientist or theologian, I have dabbled in the occult and studied all of the strangeness and peculiarities of this world and with my Fortean goggles I see the world as a playground of fascinating coincidences.

I want to make this fact clear, a fact that cannot be escaped even if you are an atheist or agnostic or otherwise. There is a shared meme held by billions of people on this planet and that is the world is destined to end in some chaos.

Now you can hold on to beliefs that say that it will be millions of years away and you can die a normal and boring death, or you can think that it will happen in 10 years, or 5 years. You can think it will end next year and there are small groups who await a rapture in the middle of May, it doesn’t matter. What matters is the sympathetic response to this preoccupation from the universe.

That is if you believe in quantum entanglements which somehow spin coincidences and synchronicities that make you wonder if you are only part of the dimensional equation.

I hear all the time that the earth is headed for destruction and that someone or some alien god will come down ad save it. Then we will be at peace. This is programming and it has been part of our collective unconscious for thousands of years because our ancestors have written in bibles, Vedic histories, Muslim writings and elsewhere about shared cataclysms and major changes that we seem to not want to accept as reality, even though it is beginning to show itself in a blatant fashion in our lifetime. How are you able to speak on a how dealing with the occult and the paranormal without trying to address the fact that 4.5 billion believe in an end times scenario that is blue printed and accepted by Abrahamic religions that claim that a Christ, externalized Messiah or Imam, will return to fight a huge satanic dragon.

Similar stories are found in Norse mythology about Thor returning to fight a large dragon and save the world. Mayan traditions say that we are living in a final cycle of creation where animals, birds and fish will die because there will be magnetic shifts, in the form of vortices that appear from out of nowhere and decimate that which is living. They are magnetic wormholes and are describes as powerful electromagnetic pulses that would appear in the final cycles of the Earth’s creation.

These vortices that appear in the quantum soup are actually supposed to lift the veil and show us what is truly behind the illusion of what we see.

Physicist Nick Herbert once declared that the world behind our back, where we are not looking and cannot observe is always an active radically ambiguous and ceaselessly flowing cosmic soup.  In the soup are invisible wormholes, magnetic vortices, Rosen bridges and columns that reveal that our whole existence and surroundings have been placed on a huge grid. When the grid is tampered with magnetically we begin to see patterns in the sky. Geometric patterns that can confuse us and actually allow for anomalies to appear in the stars, the sun and the moon.

One billion followers of Hinduism believe in cosmic cycles that spin like a vortex. They believe in the avatar Yuga coming back in a cyclical pattern and the epochs keep repeating infinitely. We spin around revolution by revolution experiencing synchronicity that progressively gets more apparent and it starts to appear before or yes as déjà vu or meaningful coincidence giving us messages to prepare for the culmination of all times and epochs in one central point in time.

Out of all of the belief systems that I have read about and have studied there seems to be a constant; it is what science has attempted to call quantum relationships. It is simply the law of attraction and manifestation through thought or power.

If you visualize events or outcomes that you believe will happen they will most likely happen in ways you couldn’t imagine!

In the office, Tracy Twyman, Bryan Trotter and Wes Skotko have been looking at some fascinating pictures that show what appear to be cities in the sky. Cities that hover above the fog and appear to be like an image from a video game. This has once again started the discussion in the office about the holographic universe.

Coincidentally I received an email from a listener named Kyle that said that on April 18th, 2015 at 9:27 PM he snapped a picture looking West over Lake Michigan towards Chicago, which is 60 miles across the lake. The picture captures the sky at sunset and in the middle of the picture is what appears to be a grid pattern or a pattern that appears to look like a UPC code symbol with bars.

Kyle is 61 years old and says he has never seen anything like his at Silver Beach.

Now that everything paranormal is becoming normal, there is a tendency by some people to deny the existence of the substance of the evolution of the “theory” and that while speculations are useful in trying to find fact, facts then rear their head and people in denial tend to hang on to the idea that they are still speculation.

They look at conspiracy theories and the beliefs surrounding them as comfortable as old sneakers; but there comes a time when the old sneakers need to be thrown out in favor of a new pair that can send you on your way to new journeys and new ideas that need to be presented.

I think it is time to admit that we are now in a moment where we need to not feel so comfortable about our theories or our speculations being taken at face value because there is now a mechanical effort to discredit and to create a highly threatening “thought police” that will try to undermine the spirit of imagination, speculation, and theory for the sake of a well thought out and repetitive agenda that comes complete with a pejorative attack against anyone who questions it.

I am not saying that we should stop with our theories; I am just thinking that perhaps we should focus our passions on what makes a difference in the thought process.

We now see how specious arguments being presented on YouTube, or on Facebook in order to get hits and “likes” and many people are unaware that disinformation lurks on the internet. This disinformation is well organized and is presented as fact, when any conspiracy theorist that is a real theorist understands that this is all theory and is satisfied with it being theory until the facts prove otherwise.

I am sensing that the person who questions is now under attack, and the thought police will find a way to destroy the person who questions rather than encourage a healthy questioning process and the entertaining of curiosity for the sole purpose of understanding.

Quantum physics gives us a new way to look at our world. If we see an object, it is because the object pops into view, if it leaves our view quickly we question if what we see was just an hallucination or if it is real and pops out of sight and out of mind.

Quantum reality gives us the ability to even question if what we saw was out of the ordinary, or plucked from another matrix to occupy this construct.

What is seen in our view is known as the field, some call it the grid. Now we are hearing of people who during twilight hours are able to see the grid in our skies as if we are living in a computer stronghold.

Some claim to have seen pixel clouds, or they have seen a tightly fine web covering the sky in squares like longitude in latitude.

In China and Africa there have been sightings of huge cities in the clouds. None of the cities are recognized, which rules out a hallucination. 

Weather specialists call what is seen as a “Fata Morgana” or a superior mirage. However a Fata Morgana cannot explain why thousands of people have now seen what appears to be a computerized grid in the sky above the Earth.

These images contain exact angles or perfect polygonal properties which some claim may include the expansion of lay line images or properties that can be seen by the human eye.

Wide and open as the number of possibilities for the appearances of this so called grid remains, it is likely that, in the broader sense, the summation of the phenomenon we call anomalous sky activity comprised of a combination of all these things.

Much the same, there may be as-yet-unfathomable explanations that would form the basis for a number of strange things observed in our reality. One of these involves the manipulation of our surroundings by intelligence that seems to abide by physical laws vastly different from ours; but what is the possibly that such intelligence might nonetheless be related very closely to us… or even exist as some strange extension of humanity itself?

The idea is already quite popular in books and film that a sort of programmable structure could exist within our reality, or that some kind of virtual reality might be imposed on humanity, manipulated by other intelligences, culminating in what we perceive as the world around us.

The series of Matrix films starring Keanu Reeves explore this possibility, as have, to a certain extent, other sci-fi films and series including Vanilla Sky, The Terminator Trilogy, Inception, The Thirteenth Floor and a number of others, in that what we view and perceive as the “real world” could be the result of a dreamlike state, or even the result of non-temporal intrusion, time travel from the future or perhaps a huge time paradox performed in a supercollider that exists in Geneva.

It can all be uncanny coincidence. It does not dismiss that it is happening and that people are now seeing the hidden grid that has somehow show itself in various glimpses.

Einstein had a word for all of this, he called it spooky actions at a distance. Science is calling it quantum entanglement. This term was used most often with early theories of gravity and electromagnetism to describe how an object could “know” the mass or charge of another distant object. Is it a sympathetic and intuitive response to what might happen or has it happened in another dimension?

Are these unexplained city sightings and grid sightings meant for a future glance and yet they are appearing in the present?

This is the deep and philosophical question and seems to be more and more apparent on the radar of most meaningful events in our lives.

So using entanglement theory we can stretch the idea into considering that human unconscious, pre-consciousness and consciousness are quantum bits can know the same actions in a dimensional or dream state.

These thoughts that are thrust in the ether become strong and meaningful precognitions that unwittingly show up in what we call self fulfilling prophecy or self made tulpas? So we can suppose that consciousness can read the unconscious and vice-versa. Group consciousness can receive a message from the collective unconsciousness and this is how we see these meaningful sightings and coincidences that have connection to major events. This is why some people are able to drum up prophecy and have it come true. Perhaps they are more in tune with the collective unconscious or the zeitgeist. Perhaps it is accidental which makes it even more meaningful and peculiar. The collective consciousness and unconsciousness become quantum entangled and we begin to see it as magical or write it off as just an hallucination or coincidence.

Florida witness says triangle UFO was silent and muffled local sounds

(Before It's News)

The Escambia County, FL, witness said that the UFO was so large that when she stopped her car to look, it was all she could see out of her windshield and windows. Pictured: Escambia County, FL. (Credit: Google)

openminds.tv

A Florida witness in Escambia County reported a “massive, totally quiet triangle-shaped object” that flew over her neighborhood at the tree top level, according to testimony in Case 64835 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was outside in a vehicle at 7 p.m. on November 13, 2014, when the incident occurred.

“It was so large that when I stopped my car to look, it was all I could see out of my windshield and windows,” the witness stated. “It didn’t make any sound at all, and the trees didn’t sway or make any noise, like they would if something like a helicopter or other craft flew so close to them.”

The witness watched while the object flew overhead.

“It was right over my head, only the distance from the ground to right over the trees.”

The object moved overhead about 7 p.m. on November 13, 2014, at the tree top level. Pictured: Escambia County, FL. (Credit: Google)

The witness watched as the object slowly moved away.

“It moved really slowly over the neighborhood going north west/west and I watched it until it disappeared.”

While the object itself was silent, the witness recalls other normal sounds being silenced as well.

“Again, it made absolutely no noise. When it flew over, it blocked out other sounds…either that, or I was so focused on the craft that I didn’t hear nearby traffic.”

Escambia County is the westernmost county in the U.S. state of Florida, population 297,619.

The witness imagined anything man-made would make a noise flying near the tops of trees, but the object was completely silent. Pictured: Escambia County, FL. (Credit: Google)

Florida is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 1.14 sightings per million population based on MUFON February 2015 statistics. Florida received a total of 22 UFO reports in March.

The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.

Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

High Ufo Strangeness In Northumberland Pennsylvania

(Before It's News)

HIGH UFO STRANGENESS IN NORTHUMBERLAND PENNSYLVANIA
FEBURARY 22, 2011   ……….    NORTHUMBERLAND PENNSYLVANIA

Let me begin by saying that I am very reluctant to file this report. I had an experience a year and a half ago which I did not disclose until 6 days ago when I filed my first report with MUFON. I spoke to an investigator on Monday, and then I had this terrifying experience on Tuesday. I have not seen anything since my first sighting in 2009. Now, one day after talking to your investigator, I have been visited up close and personal. I am not saying that one led to the other, but it is a very eerie coincidence. I was out on my deck Tuesday night and I noticed a few “flashing stars,” not unlike what I had seen in my first report. It was 9 o’clock. These “stars” were then accompanied by these randomly flashing orbs that were descending to rooftop level. Then I saw a bright red flashing object low to the ground. It was not a plane, and it disappeared after a minute or two. After that, the real chaos began. Around 9:30, I noticed a huge streak of blue/white light flash across the sky, and after that, they were everywhere. Little flashes of what looked like laser beams, but they were coming from all directions and not from one source in the sky. There was a bright hovering orb directly in front of my house, and these little flashes of light were surrounding me. One came within 5 feet of me. They were constant. I was quite scared. I ran inside and called my brother to let him know what was happening, when I heard a helicopter fly over my house so low that I was almost shouting to make myself heard on the phone. I was on the phone for about 10 minutes, and in that time I counted 3 more helicopters and 2 planes fly directly over my house. They must have been very low for me to hear them from inside my home while on the telephone. After I hung up, I went back out on to the deck. At this time, there were planes and helicopters everywhere, but the bright orb in the sky was still above me (about a block or two away and the height of the planes flying at it) but hovering, not flying. The flashes of light were still all around. Some were in the distance, some were high in the sky, some were on the street, and some were in the alley directly in front of me. I began to feel strange. Not ill, but my stomach began to feel very odd. It was uncomfortable.. almost an empty feeling as if I hadn’t eaten in days. At this time I was getting really worried, and the helicopters kept coming. The flashing beam phenomenon was practically happening on my deck, so I quickly came back inside out of fear. I called around and found that some of my neighbors were also aware of the heavy air traffic.

One had actually heard all the commotion while in the shower and had gotten dressed and gone outside to see if there was an air raid or something. None had witnessed the lasers or orbs, but these were so low and directly in front of my house… so unless you were in my backyard, they would have been obstructed by other houses and trees. The 10-20 planes in the sky at any given time were visible to everyone though. I am sure that others had to have seen what I witnessed last night. I watched all of this go on for about an hour total. I was home alone, so I was very disturbed, especially since the lights were coming so close to me. I came back inside and continued to hear planes and helicopters go by one after another until about 11:30. Around that time, I went back outside and saw that the bright orb was moving away from my house toward the farms and fields beyond. I watched it move slowly away, still flashing beams of light in the distance. The planes were still flying by. I went back out at 12:30 and the orb was gone. In it’s place there were two sets of three lights in the shape of triangles, with planes flying at them.

By this time, my mind was exhausted, and I just couldn’t comprehend anything else, so I came inside and tried to go to bed. Wednesday morning I found out that my father had also seen strange orbs in the woods by the creek on his property earlier that night, around 8 o’clock. He said they looked like lanterns, but were sporadic and would disappear after a few seconds. I am not sure that they are related, but he lives about 25 minutes from me, and it is very odd that we both saw similar phenomenon on the same night after almost 2 years of not seeing anything else substantial. I am at a loss for words when it comes to describing just how unreal and amazing last night’s events were. There must be someone else out there that witnessed that same thing. It left Northumberland PA and headed toward Danville PA around 11:30-12. Anyone driving Route 11 at that time must have noticed an unusual number of low flying planes if not the orb and flashes themselves.

Russian space agency also on the hunt for extraterrestrial life

(Before It's News)

openminds.tv

Russia’s space agency recently released a draft of their Federal Space Program for 2016 to 2025, and it includes their plans to join the European Space Agency (ESA) on the ExoMars Program whose mission is to hunt for signs of extraterrestrial life on Mars.

Russian newspaper RIA Novosti summarized the goals of the Russian Federal Space Agency, aka Roscomos, in a recent article on a draft of the new Russian Federal Space Program, which RIA Novosti was allowed to review. The headline for their story reads, “Search for extraterrestrial life is included in the draft of the new space program of the Russian Federation.”

The alien hunting program Roscomos is participating in is one that was created by the ESA and for a period of time was going to be executed in participation with NASA. It was part of the ESA/NASA Mars Exploration Joint Initiative. However, the ExoMars program was defunded on the U.S. side in 2013 purportedly due to cost overruns of the James Webb Space Telescope.

After NASA pulled out, Roscosmos jumped in, and as they put it, “thereby taking the place left by NASA.”

It is an ambitious project that includes four spacecraft. There will be an orbiter, two landers and a rover. The first part of the mission will include the orbiter and a lander, and is currently scheduled to be launched by a Roscomos Proton rocket in January, 2016.

The orbiter is called the Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), and it serves many purposes. It will be used to survey Mars’ surface for landing sites, serve a sa communications relay for the landers and rover, map the distribution of near-surface water, and analyze the climate, including searching for and analyzing methane gas.

The ExoMars project timeline. See the English version below. Click to enlarge. (Credit: RIA Novosti)

The detection of methane is important because one source of methane is microbes. Previously, NASA reported that their Curiosity rover did not detect methane at a high enough level to support the idea that it stems from a biological source. However, scientists did point out that if life existed in the past, most of this methane could have been depleted.

It is hoped that the TGO will be able to further analyze the methane that has been detected on Mars to discover its origins.

The lander that will accompany the TGO in January is called the Schiaparelli Descent and Landing Demonstrator Module (EDM) Lander, and, like its name indicates, one of its main goals it to test the ability of a lander to safely descend and land on the Martian surface.

Once there, it will also check the atmosphere and Martian weather. It includes a camera, so there will hopefully be some dramatic footage of its landing if it survives the trip. The lander is expected to arrive in October 2016.

The second ExoMars launch is planned to for May 2018. This package, which includes a lander and a rover, is expected to touch down on Mars in January 2019. The rover will have a drill which will pull Martian samples into an onboard lab for analysis. It will have the ability to look for biomolecules and biosignatures  from life that exists, or existed, on Mars in the present or past.

This is yet another project in the hunt for evidence of extraterrestrial life, which is the crux of the majority of the research on Mars, according to Seth Shostak, senior astronomer for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute.

He says the Mars missions are not just about looking at rocks. “That’s the mythology,” says Shostak. “Mars is about life, not geology, as interesting as that is.”

NASA’s chief scientist Ellen Stofan recently said, “I think we’re going to have strong indications of life beyond Earth within a decade, and I think we’re going to have definitive evidence within twenty to thirty years.”

Perhaps Mars is the place we will find it. Although, what a rub it would be if the ESA and Roscomos find it without the participation of NASA. Then again, there are scientists who feel we have evidence of extraterrestrial life on Mars right here on Earth. The race is on.

Daily 2 Cents: Strange Green Glow Inside The Fukushima Plant -- Warning About Aliens On Earth -- Eww! Eye Gouging Ritual in India

What The Hell Is This Strange Green Glow Inside The Fukushima Plant?

A second robotic probe has investigated the interior of Japan’s stricken Fukushima nuclear power plant. Using its onboard camera, it sent back eerie images of the plant’s interior, including what appears to be a mysterious green glow.

Earlier this month, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) dispatched the first of the shape-shifting robots to survey the plant, but it had to be abandoned after it got blocked by an obstacle. The second robot, dispatched on April 15th, fared much better.

As CNN reports, the robot detected lower-than-expected radiation levels and temperature. TEPCO says this may be a good sign that cooling systems are working effectively. The radiation dose was about 4.7 to 9.7Sv/h — less than a tenth of what was expected. Temperatures were around 65 degrees F (18-20 degrees C). This bodes well for future clean-up efforts.

Warning About Aliens On Earth

Gauley Bridge, WV - 10/1974: This is not about a ufo sighting. This is about the aliens that are already living on this earth. I'm a registered surgical nurse that has been secluded all my life waiting to deal with what I have told you. I met a psychic/channel in 1974 who came to me and drew me some symbols on a piece of paper and told me they are the intergalactic alphabet. I was in nursing school at that time. She made reference to the fact that I would be in orthopedics and she kept talking about the intergalactic ships. I thought she was a "little off." As time went on I realized that what she said has to be true. I know there are many races of beings here and being funded by our government. They are getting more difficult to manage and in 3 years they will be coming "out of the closet." I have not had time to to investigate what I have just told you but I also am a psychic and I want to know what I am supposed to do. This is going to happen. I do hope you find a way to get in touch with me. [name & address removed/cms/rjl] there is so much more to tell you - MUFON CMS

'Figure 8' UFO Over Bogata

A photographer named Richard Emblin, who is also the editor of the only English-language newspaper (“The City Paper”) distributed in the Colombian capital city, Bogotá, managed to photograph a UFO in the city’s skies with a Nikon 300s.

According to Emblin in the Mirror (article by Laura Connor), the object is a somewhat blurry figure 8 that moved through the skies of the capital and which he could see from his place of residence.

“I did not hoax my photo. On Sunday, April 12, I went out to my balcony, which faces to the east. It was a grey Sunday morning. The streets were empty and washed by the slight drizzle that had fallen overnight. When I looked up, I saw an object rising vertically skyward, behind the crest of the Cerros Orientales,” he added.

Daily 2 Cents: Alien Abduction Still Haunts Travis Walton -- Dan Aykroyd Explains UFO Cover-Up -- Officers Recall Vietnam UFO Encounters

UFO-Alien Abduction Still Haunts Travis Walton

Close encounters of the FOURTH kind. That's when a person claims to have been kidnapped by a UFO and its reportedly otherworldly occupants.

Of course, there's no tangible evidence that anyone has ever been taken aboard an extraterrestrial spacecraft. But there are those who claim they've been abducted, and their stories are chilling.

Travis Walton's terrifying account is the stuff movies are made from, and he joins us on the HuffPost Weird News podcast to talk about that day 40 years ago, when the then 22-year-old logger says he was knocked unconscious, and woke up to find he was surrounded by ETs aboard their ship.

Dan Aykroyd explains UFO cover-up

Last Friday, Dan Aykroyd appeared on the third episode of The Huffington Post’s new The HuffPost Show, and among other topics, shared his views on the U.S. Air Force’s UFO cover-up and some details about his own UFO sightings.

The HuffPost Show is hosted by founding editor of The Huffington Post Roy Sekoff and former professor and veteran HuffPost Live host  Marc Lamont Hill. The show is a new weekly news magazine style show, and the third episode, featuring a long interview with Aykroyd (the interview can be seen here), was aired online on Friday.

The conversation turned to UFOs when Hill asked, “I said if I am ever going to meet Dan Aykroyd I am going to ask him about this. You believe in UFOs. Is that right?”

There was a slight hesitation by Aykroyd, and a few giggles from off camera, but Aykroyd headed straight into his answer.

Aykroyd told Hill, “I do. I have seen four, and I can’t say that they are alien craft and neither can the Air Force. The Air Force has been very interested in this. They don’t deny the existence of these hyperdynamic, super aerodynamic craft. They don’t deny.”
Although Aykroyd says the Air Force does not deny the existence of alien spacecraft, he explains why he thinks there is a cover-up of that information.

Aykroyd continued, “Their anguish comes in that they can’t tell you. They want to tell you anything but that they are extraterrestrial. Any excuse at all, even if they are unknown or unsolved. The Air Force cannot just come out and admit that there are extraterrestrial beings far in advanced of our culture that have built these machines.” Read more at Dan Aykroyd explains UFO cover-up

Invasive Species: Aquarium Dumping

“Someone just didn’t want their goldfish anymore. We don’t think there was malice intended, but now we have 4,000 goldfish. And that’s an issue,” says Jennifer Churchill, public information officer for Colorado Parks and Wildlife, adding that Teller Lake No. 5, a 12-acre expanse of water near Boulder, was overrun with the county fair critters.

Aquarium dumping has led to several exotic aquatic species being introduced to ecosystems in which they don’t belong—perhaps most notably the Burmese python in Florida’s Everglades.

The United States Geological Survey has reported that 1,003 non-native aquatic species have been introduced into various bodies of water across the country. (Some of these species may have been eradicated, though it would be impossible to check every body of water to confirm, said Matt Cannister, a fish biologist.) Of that total, 688 are fish, with frogs, turtles, snakes, shrimp, crabs and mussels filling out the list.

It’s not clear exactly how many of those 1,003 non-native species are considered invasive—defined by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) as species that harm the local economy or human health. The agency says it lacks the resources for such detailed research. Some known invasive species are zebra mussels, which can clog pipes and cost millions of dollars to remove, and European green crabs, which both outcompete New England soft-shell clams and prey on them. The soft-shells, a highly valuable seafood product, have withered as the green crabs have thrived.

Goldfish aren’t wreaking havoc on human health or finances (yet)—but they are throwing off the delicate balance of an ecosystem. “Any species that ends up in an ecosystem in which it did not evolve, it doesn’t have all the checks and balances that affect the creatures who occur there naturally,” said Don Maclean, an FWS biologist. “This non-native animal, like a goldfish, might not get preyed on as much; diseases and parasites don’t bother it as much. These are all qualities that help them reproduce faster and better. When that happens, the non-native species is eating more while the native species are struggling for food.”

To rid Teller Lake No. 5 of the goldfish, Colorado Parks and Wildlife authorities are considering electrofishing, basically zapping all of the fish with a jolt of electricity. The stunned fish float to the surface and can be removed.

Churchill has received dozens of calls from locals asking if they can take the goldfish home as pets, but she believes that would set a bad precedent. Instead, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will donate the goldfish to a bird of prey rehabilitation center, where they will be eaten. - Two Numbers: When Goldfish Go Wild

Officers recall Vietnam UFO encounters

US military personnel reported several unusual incidents involving UFOs during the war in Vietnam.

One such encounter allegedly took place in 1968 when the crew of an American patrol boat came across two strange luminous objects in the sky over the zone dividing North and South Vietnam.

Roughly circular in shape, the objects were later seen again by a second patrol vessel whose crew witnessed them hovering above the first. A few moments later a sudden flash of light was observed and the boat was seen exploding in to a ball of flames. No further trace of the two objects was ever found.

Another source of UFO stories during the war in Vietnam was Capt. George Filer, an Air Force intelligence officer who was tasked with submitting daily reports to Gen. George S. Brown.

"You'd have an aircraft flying along, doing around 500 knots and a UFO comes alongside and does some barrel rolls around the aircraft and then flies off at three times the speed of one of the fastest jets we have in the Air Force," he said.

"So, obviously, it has a technology far in advance of anything we have."

Filer would later go on to collect and release details of UFO sightings from all over the world.

"People tell you a lot of things that they don't put in writing or sign their name to," he said. "There was always this part of UFOs that, if you got too interested, it could mess up your career." Read more at UFOs Confront Soldiers During War, Says Ex-Air Force Intelligence Officer

NEW! Ancient Aliens: The Vanishings S07E16

Ancient Aliens – The Vanishings
History Channel, Season 7 Episode 16
24th April 2015

Stories of civilizations large and small disappearing without a trace can be found throughout history and across the globe. From a previously unknown civilization in China, a vanished race of giants, to the unexplained disappearances of the Classic Maya and the Anasazi–elements of these disappearances cannot be completely explained by conventional scholars. Although these cultures have vanished from the face of the Earth, they have left behind intriguing clues–clues, some say point to an otherworldly explanation. And if entire groups have been taken off planet, might there be a connection with sites connected to mysterious vanishings of people, planes, and boats in various locations throughout the world? Could examining these disappearances lead us to not only uncover evidence of extraterrestrial intervention in our remote past, but also reveal the consequences for the future of the human race?

Calbuco Volcano Eruption Causes UFO Controversy

A strange looking object made an appearance in the sky for a few seconds before vanishing while dust and ash filled the area. A video of the Calbuco volcano’s eruption in Chile has sparked controversy after viewers noticed a UFO in the sky together with the plumes of dust and ash.

The mysterious flying object seems to hover and flash for a few seconds on the left side of the eruption. After a few seconds, the unidentified flying object vanishes without a trace.

The video clip was uploaded on April 23 to YouTube by the name Ana Luisa Cid and has already garnered more than 200,000 views.

The video description tells the viewers that it was taken on April 22, 2015. Some suggest a drone or a police helicopter. Interestingly, the object remains static before it disappears.

Like 90 percent of volcanoes, Calbuco lies within the Ring of Fire, where a large number of volcanic eruptions happen in the basin of the Pacific Ocean.

Volcanic eruptions happen when the gas that dissolves under pressure within magma cannot be contained anymore.

Calbuco had remained dormant for 40 years, but suddenly erupted on Wednesday afternoon followed by a mighty blast.

Professor Dave Rothery of the Open University explained that gases are created when tectonic plates move. These gases then bubbles to the surface, triggering aneruption.

The eruption can be likened to pulling the tab of a can of beer, it foams up.

While Calbuco volcano is known to be one of the most active in Chile, officials in the area got surprised by the eruption. Emergency director Alejandro Verges said Calbuco had not been observedclosely.

Gateway to the famous Patagonia region Puerto Montt has been filled with a cloud of ash and heavy traffic as people jammed into the petrol stations. Flights in nearby town Ensenada were cancelled, and people were evacuated. Neighbouring town Puerto Varas is under a state of alert. Emergency procedures are also in place for Bariloche city of Argentina.

Filer’s Files # 17 – 2015 Moon and Mars Structures - PART I

In special reports, this week’s files cover: Gerald Ford Wanted Congressional Inquiry, Moon Structures, Mars Tubes, Chinese Tubes, and UFO Crash at St Augustin.

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: California, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington.

Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Iraq, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Switzerland, and in England, Scotland, and Wales in the United Kingdom, Venezuela, and Zaire.

The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The weekly intelligence report provides you with information on the latest sightings and UFO news that you need to understand the world situation. The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force and Prince Phillip told me of his personal interest in UFOs. The US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Special Reports

Gerald Ford Wanted Congressional Inquiry

 House Minority Leader Gerald Ford on March 25, 1966, proposed to Congress that they investigate the rash of reported sightings of unidentified flying objects in Michigan and other parts of the country.

Ford said he believed a congressional inquiry would be worthwhile because the American people are becoming alarmed by the UFO stories. It didn’t hurt his political chances and helped make his name a household word.

I had always liked President Ford, because I believe he had the public interest at heart.  He was one of the few congressmen, who were concerned about the Unidentified Flying Objects in our skies. I ask is there any congressman with the courage of former President Ford who will again ask for an UFO inquiry.  There are very few if any congressmen willing to put his career, prestige, and reputation on the line. If we do get an opportunity, there are astronauts, military personnel, and scientists standing ready to testify.  I feel we have enough data to convince congress in a fair hearing.  We know that President Ford, Carter and Clinton have all attempted to obtain the answer from government sources regarding UFOs. I recently asked President Ford about the existence of UFOs.  He wrote me a friendly letter telling of his 25 and half years in the House — never in the Senate.  His letter stated in part, “During my public career in Congress, as Vice President and President, I made various requests for any information on UFOs.  The official authorities always denied the UFO allegations.  As a result I have no information that may be helpful to you.”

Moon Structures

I have been reviewing images from NASA archives for years, looking for anomalies. Last night I found some links to the rolls of film Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin shot when they first achieved lunar insertion in December 1969. They took a massive amount of images on both the light and the dark side of the moon.

I examined image #5448 and found these objects around 8pm, 13 April 2015. Their sharpness made them stand out from the surface.

I used an Archive at: The Apollo Flight Journal
Journal Home Page Apollo 11 Photography Index.
There are (9) nine Hasselblad 70-mm film magazines available via the Apollo 11 Journal Home Page.

70-mm magazine R – AS11-37-5433 to 5555 is the second one. Image number: 5448 – resolution is 3900 x 3900. The largest magnification is 300% using a browser magnifier to expand the original 3900 pixel image.

That looks like a habitat and spaceship.  The last image is the habitat and spaceship with the colors reversed using Paint.exe.

Mars Tubes

Located in an ancient ocean bed which has drifted apart due to some sort of cataclysmic stress is nothing less than a series of interlocking, reinforced and still intact translucent, glass-like tubes! Mars image M04-00291 (found by Richard Hoagland) is certainly most extraordinary.

Reinforced by regularly spaced, cylindrical arches, this clearly defined translucent structure seems to be running along a hollowed out section of the former ocean floor. The clear “glass” tube with a distinct edge where the tube wraps around the arches. I am fully satisfied that they represent the activities of life of some kind. The most obvious speculation is that these are artificial tubes providing protective habitat and may represent intelligent civilized life. The tubes appear like they are being expanded as to its width and girth after it was already fully formed. The red lines point to what appears to be glass or plastic domes. The reflection and brilliant light indicate the composition of the tube is not associated with any kind of geologic feature or “wind polished rocks.”
I phoned JPL and talked to a geologist who claimed the tubes were sand dunes. I explained I had spent four months flying over Saudi Arabia’s sand dunes at a few hundred feet altitude and the Mars tubes are unlike anything on Earth. I have been told by NASA personnel that life on Mars is classified Secret and they are unable to divulge this to the public.

Chinese Tubes

Disclose TV reports, “A mysterious pyramid in China’s Qinghai Province near Mount Baigong has three caves filled with pipes leading to a nearby salt-water lake.” There are also tubes or pipes under the lake bed and on the shore. The iron pipes range in size, with some smaller than a toothpick. The strangest part is that they may be about 150,000 years old.

Dating done by the Beijing Institute of Geology determined these iron pipes were smelted about 150,000 years ago. And if they were made by humans, history as it is commonly viewed would have to be reevaluated. The dating was done using thermo luminescence, a technique that determines how long ago crystalline mineral was exposed to sunlight or heated. Humans are only thought to have inhabited the region for the past 30,000 years. Even within the known history of the area, the only humans to inhabit the region were nomads whose lifestyle would not leave any such structures behind.

The state-run news agency Xinhua in China reported on the pyramid, the pipes, and the research began by a team scientists sent to investigate in 2002. Though some have since tried to explain the pipes as a natural phenomenon, Yang Ji, a research fellow at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told Xinhua the pyramid may have been built by intelligent beings. He did not dismiss the theory that ancient extraterrestrials may be responsible, saying this theory is “understandable and worth looking into … but scientific means must be employed to prove whether or not it is true.”

The ancient remains of blonde and red haired very tall people have been found in China Another theory is that it was built by prehistoric humans with techniques lost to humans of a later period. The pipes lead into a salty lake, though a twin lake nearby contains freshwater. The surrounding landscape is strewn with what Xinhua described as “strangely shaped stones.” Rocks protrude from the ground like broken pillars.

The head of the publicity department at the local Delingha government told Xinhua the pipes were analyzed at a local smelter and 8 percent of the material could not be identified. The rest was made up of ferric oxide, silicon dioxide, and calcium oxide. The silicon dioxide and calcium oxide are products of long interaction between the iron and surrounding sandstone, showing the ancient age of the pipes. Liu Shaolin, the engineer who did the analysis, told Xinhua: “This result has made the site even more mysterious.”“Nature is harsh here,” he said. “There are no residents let alone modern industry in the area, only a few migrant herdsmen.”

To further add to the mystery, Zheng Jiandong, a geology research fellow from the China Earthquake Administration told state-run newspaper People’s Daily in 2007, that some of the pipes were found to be highly radioactive. Jiandong said iron-rich magma may have risen from deep in the Earth, bringing the iron into fissures where it would solidify into tubes. Though he admitted, “There is indeed something mysterious about these pipes.” He cited the radioactivity as an example of the strange qualities of the pipes. Both birds and plants are able to detect radioactivity and stay away from the possible uranium deposits.

Though publications in China have referred to a mysterious pyramid in which the pipes were found, some have said it was a pyramid-shaped natural formation.

There are over a hundred ancient pyramids in China, with seven in this one photo taken by Hartwig Hausdorf.

Note:  These pyramids and their extensive pipe system exist and are thousands of years old. They represent ancient technology that hints of extraterrestrial technology or very ancient civilizations. The craft we see today appear to have overcome gravity and use electromagnetism.

Pipes can carry water (hydrogen and oxygen H2O) to or from the pyramid that can be used as fuel plus collecting electrical and gravitational energy. Many megalithic sites around the world are known to have stable readings of magnetism such as the megalithic site in Carnac, France. The pipes had high radioactivity that may have a connection to UFOs that sometimes are known to leave ionizing radiation. Most of the Chinese pyramids have flat areas at the top where a UFO could land and charge their batteries or refuel. Even today UFOs are often reported above thunder clouds, power stations, or power lines apparently obtaining electrical energy. Most the Chinese pyramids are 300 meters high with the length of each side is given as 500 meters. Many have boulders nearby are also pointing up. They pyramids appear as a power station or communication device.

John Lear claims, “The ancient Chinese writing some 5,000 years ago claim the pyramids belonged to the epoch when China was ruled by ancient emperors who believed in the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations. Moreover, the emperors themselves insisted that they were ancestors of the sons of the sky, who had landed the Earth in iron dragons.” Blonde Aliens are alleged to have been the constructors of the pyramids.” http://www.thelivingmoon.com/

There are connections between Nikola Tesla and the Energy of the pyramids. The most active pyramid site in the world dating the pyramid complex back 25,000 years has also released scientific evidence supporting the theory that the pyramids were used as an energy source. The energy beam is theorized by Dr. Osmanagich as the reason the pyramids were built; to provide ancient civilizations a powerful source of clean energy.

This is already a widely supported theory set forth in the book “The Giza Power Plant” by Christopher Dunn...

1. In 1932 journalist John J. O’Neill conducted an interview with Nicola Tesla (shown) and asked him, “If he is still at work on the project which he inaugurated in the ’90’s of transmitting power wirelessly anywhere on earth”.  He said, “He is at work on it, and it could be put into operation. . . . He at that time announced two principles which could be used in this project.  In one the ionizing of the upper air would make it as good a conductor of electricity as a metal.  In the other the power is transmitted by creating “standing waves” in the earth by charging the earth with a giant electrical oscillator that would make the earth vibrate electrically in the same way a bell vibrates mechanically when it is struck with a hammer.  “I do not use the plan involving the conductivity of the upper strata of the air,” he said, “but I use the conductivity of the earth itself, and in this I need no wires to send electrical energy to any part of the globe.” Nickola Tesla Brooklyn Eagle, July 10, 1932.

 The plan would require several of his transmitters to rhythmically pump huge amounts of electricity into the earth at pressures on the order of a hundred million volts probably generated by waterfall power stations. The earth would become like a huge ball inflated to a great electrical potential, but pulsing to Tesla’s imposed beat. Receiving energy from this high pressure reservoir would only require operating in unison with the earth’s electrical motion by putting a rod in the ground and connect to a receiver.

ISIS Camp Near U.S. Border

By Chad Groening, OneNewsNow.com   During the course of a joint operation last week, Mexican Army and federal law enforcement officials discovered documents in Arabic as well as “plans” of Fort Bliss where US Army’s 1^st Armored Division.

Intelligence from  a Mexican Army field grade officer and a Mexican Federal Police Inspector claim ISIS is operating a camp about eight miles from El Paso, Texas. The area dominated by a drug cartel that is apparently working with ISIS.

Another ISIS cell to the west of Ciudad Juárez, in Puerto Palomas, targets the New Mexico towns of Columbus and Deming for easy access to the United States. Persons engaged in human smuggling called Coyotes – have helped move ISIS terrorists into the United States where they are conducting reconnaissance in the Texas and New Mexico area, including universities, US installations, and electrical power facilities according to the Judicial Watch report.

UFO Crash at Plains of San Augustan

In 1994, with a map from a rancher, Art Campbell visited a UFO crash site on the Plains of San Augustan. He found a phenomenal amount of material and had it scientifically analyzed. In his book, “UFO Crash at San Augustin,” in 1947. Art has painstakingly documented with over 100 photographs and lab analysis the materials found at the site proving a non-human craft crashed.

Sightings of UFOs in the United States

California Lights

Stamford – The orb hovered over my house and then moved away on April 15, 2015. I was able to get some strange photos. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Lights

Margate – It was around 11:30 pm, on April 15, 2015, I was watching these strange orbs in the sky with my boyfriend. We noticed that one of the orbs that had the shape of a plane and was releasing star like entities into the air that just disappeared electrical storm above us. I looked northwest and shouted “Look, straight ahead!” This massive object was descending at an 85 degree angle.

It had an aura and very bright lights surrounding its surface. I saw about 4-5 hurricane windows as it quickly descended and to disappeared. When we lost sight of the craft we heard sirens.  Thanks to MUFON CMS

Gainesville – I observed at least nine glowing orbs over NE 15th Street on April 18, 2015, moving north. My fiancée, friend, and I were leaving a friend’s house and observed very bright orange orbs as we headed to the car. Then we noticed that they were moving. The group of objects moved in a northern direction from the southeast. They moved at different speeds and on slightly different paths. There was no noticeable wind at ground level. Objects disappeared, one by one, as they passed us to the east, some obscured by trees. Total time: 5-10 minutes.

Objects appeared huge, high up (500 feet+) and very bright, but size and distance cannot be confirmed. It was an unexpected and enjoyable, though puzzling, event :). Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois Orb

 Edinburg – I sent in a few photos about a month or so ago. I will send what I can with this April 15, 2015 email. You really need to come see for yourself.

These things are here almost every night. They follow me when I leave in the truck. It’s like they are my shadows. They change colors, hover in the sky, are different designs, etc. Thanks to Pam Stark

 Ledbetter – I am a cook on the river boat and was done for the day on April 15, 2015, and went to visit with my captain and took a picture of the river. My brother called and wanted a picture of the river as I said just not knowing the ufo was in it till right after I took it.

I viewed it before I sent the picture to my brother of the river when I noticed the object. I laughed when I seen it and showed captain and he began looking straight out in front of us where I just took photo and there was nothing there. It looks like a disc with a dome in the middle.the guys are now making fun of me, but I say here is the picture what do you see? Thanks to MUFON CMS

Maine Orb

Bangor –I was taken a few shots with my new Canon Camera of chemtrails and clouds, my favorite, past time on April 20, 2015. I saw the picture I wanted to shoot, and I found this object and a found a face in the clouds.

I was amazed of what I found, I have shown other people and are in awe, I lost sight of the object when I went to change settings on camera, After my brief dying after being hit but a tree, I have had this sense. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Maryland Orbs

Pasadena – On April 11th, 2015, at 1:52 am, I took random pictures of the night sky but none of the stars showed up, but two lights or orbs showed up. I can’t tell what they are.

My best guess is that the picture is facing the North sky. I took the picture with my arm’s extended straight up above me. I did not see anything in the sky when the picture was taken and noticed what showed up in the picture the next day. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Missouri Bright Light

Sullivan – On April 15, 2015, about 8:30 PM, at work I observed in N NW sky a bright round object at high altitude much brighter than any star that didn’t move. Then I thought made a quick tight figure eight maneuver?
I then called for a friend to look and she also thought it moved.  After about 20 minutes I called the police and an officer came over. He said, “It was a planet, and laughed at me” I told him I saw it move! “He said as long as it is not on this property we don’t care.” He laughed and left. I had to go back to work and took lots of photographs and several appear to be a cylinder object and Venus is not a cylinder. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Triangle

Medford — On April 14, 2015 around 8 PM, my girl friend was returning from work and noticed a low flying triangular shaped craft with red lights moving slowly in a straight path. She returned home, and after about 15 minutes we noticed it in a clearing in front of a residential neighborhood. I had nothing else to do tonight, and should have followed it for as long as I could. We went to eat, and since the aircraft had only moved a mile or two from us. Thirty minutes later we drove around for 45 minutes and couldn’t find it again.

Cream Ridge – I went to take dog outside to use facilities on April 11, 2015, the only one awake at 2:33 am, and was looking up in the sky for jets and saw a circular object with lights circling the perimeter hovering. Object did not move. I live near McGuire AFB so usually see some traffic. It just hung there with no sound at all.  It appeared to be solid as the interior area appeared slightly lighter than surrounding sky. I got kind of scared and took my dog inside. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New York Object

Syracuse – I’m a photographer and was doing a general shoot of the city from the roof of a parking garage on State Street on April 12, 2015. I never noticed this object until today when I was editing pictures from that day.

I didn’t want to mark the picture at all but you can see it by zooming in. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Fort Ann — I occasionally take pictures of certain job repair elements like I did for this particular job on April 16, 2015. The next day, I looked through my photos and noticed that there was something odd in one of them. I don’t know what it was. I watch sci-fi movies and series and can make some pretty wild guesses, but I’d rather have someone look at the picture and provide insight.

I did not witness the event and there was no noise. I was outside with a customer and my supervisor who was performing a safety inspection. None of us had our attention diverted to the object. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Oregon Unexplained Body Marks

 Eugene — On the night of April 17th, 2015, my wife felt compelled to look out our back window, which she typically does not do at night. She called to me in a panicked voice, then pointed out an object hovering ~30 degrees above the horizon, due west. It was brighter than any star and I am an avid stargazer.
We spent the next twenty minutes going over possible explanations. I kept it oriented with stationary objects, and as far as I could tell it did not move and maintained a constant distance. The object pulsed softly, and that the color of the object changed from white to orange-red. We discussed it for a minute and it suddenly disappeared.
This topic has gained significance in our lives of late due to my wife’s experiences. After the sighting, after retiring on Friday night, my wife was awakened by the rattle of a hanger she had left on our Cocker Spaniel’s pen, which sits under the bedroom window. She noted the dog sitting in the middle of the pen. My wife then noticed something move past the dim light coming from the cable box as if someone had walked by. She had strong feelings of presences in our room at night, sleep disturbances, and unexplained marks on her body. The latest of these is a circular pattern of marks on her left buttock that was noticed just this morning. We are both degreed professionals, trained in objective documentation of evidence, though for the same reason have sensitive careers to consider. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Tennessee Light

Gatlinburg – On April 11th, 2005 we were circling the park learning about historical pioneer information in back of the truck on chairs as the sun lit about the tree tops.

I took pictures of the tree tops and was unaware of the object. After returning home and observing the pictures is when we noticed the object. It was visible in several pictures. No airplanes or any other flying objects are allowed in this area. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Triangles

San Antonio — My daughter was participating at a conference on April, 15, 2015. She had dinner at the revolving restaurant and took a picture of it.

When she later looked at the picture, the UFO like object was seen. She doesn’t believe it could be street lights, because it is too high which seems to be the case due to the height of the restaurant. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Fort Worth — My brother in law and I were talking in my driveway at about 10:20 pm, on April15, 2015, when I looked up at the stars to see a satellite in space and told him to look. We watched it until it was no longer visible. At that point my brother in law said, “What is that and pointed at a triangular shaped object at 2,000 feet.” It had no lights and was a grayish color and completely silent. It was traveling north followed in three seconds by another one. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Washington Light

Rattlesnake Lake — On April 14, 2015, Toby was walking around the lake with a hiking companion and saw a bright light to the west at 9:30 PM. The light became very bright and grew to 1/4 the size of a full moon. The silent light would then almost disappear and would brighten again and then dim again for about 40 minutes. The light was mostly hovering but moved to straight up at 90 degrees. At one point the witness could see a black outline when the light dimmed. The object was lost when the cloud cover thickened. Listen to Clip of Witness Interview (YouTube):

Note: The witness was quite familiar with aircraft and knew that the object aircraft because there were no flashing lights and there was no sound. The object was not a planet because it changed luminosity and eventually moved overhead from the west. The object did not move fast enough to be a satellite. Winds aloft were from the west at 10 to 20 knots. The object was likely not a hot air balloon Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com/

Worldwide UFO Sightings

Australia Orb

Sydney – Filming  the Moonrise in the east on March 6^th, 2015, from my balcony there was nothing noticeable other than how bright the moon was, but on playback I noticed a bright orange light that would appear and then disappear. I thought it was odd that it would show up in playback and not be visible while filming. I have included an unaltered frame from the original video. I have included an approximate shape of the object. No aircraft navigation lights were visible. I have been a student pilot-and familiar with aircraft since I was 5.

Capalaba Brisbane — Trent Mullins writes, “I was outside my mom’s house at 7:45 pm about April 1, 2015, and saw three big bright lights in the sky towards the south.” They had a small solid light in the center and the outer glow was pulsating. The lights were changing between green, blue and a reddish orange. My mom and my wife said, “It’s probably planes.”   Three minutes later when we got home I went for a walk to the drop off where there is a great view of the area. The three lights were still in the same spot, and they started moving around and merged into one ball and shot off to the north making no sound. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 Canada Sightings

Scarborough — Paul writes, I could also see an outline dark black shadow person always at the end of the bed with no features and a hat and cape just standing there watching most of the time. These nightmares were on-going on until I was six. In August 1967, I witnessed my first daytime UFO sighting of a silver cigar craft and two smaller silver spheres, followed by a close encounter on August 4, 1977. I saw a pear shaped silver craft about two hundred feet away at dusk. I had seven night sightings in August 2002 at camp. Then in 2003, the reports dramatically increased to 16 UFO sightings – 14 daylights all in one year. Then on August 13, 2003, I went to Scarborough’s local library to see the history of UFO sightings reported from the 1960’s. A Toronto newspaper article dated August 21, 1965, confirmed there had been UFO sightings over Scarborough in the summer of 1965. I went into deep shock confirming that these were not nightmares but were likely connected to these bizarre UFO sightings. The UFO sightings have still continued today as well as paranormal symptoms on the ground. Could some Abductees’ be in a lifetime process to be groomed as Contactees? I feel this may be the case for me. I have been sending you UFO sighting reports since 2005, and cannot deny these contact and sightings. Thanks once again for your understanding and support. Thanks to Paul Shishis

 Toronto– I was taking pictures of St. Michael Church at Wychwood Avenue and St. Clair on March 31st. I usually take two pictures to make sure the quality is good. Last week I was checking out the pictures when I realized that there were two dark objects in the picture.

The two objects show up in both the pictures at the upper left which were taken within 5 seconds of each other. The objects do not look like any birds, balloons or aircraft Thanks to MUFON CMS

Chile Disc

 Minas de Cerro Colorado – On April 14, 2015, in this short video we get a glimpse of a glowing UFO that looks a lot like the O’Hare airport November 2006 UFO. This glowing UFO moves fast back and forth and seems aware that the working crew are watching it. It comes back to give them a better view. It’s a disk with a raised center. The area looks like a mining facility with many heavy dump trucks carrying dirt. The UFO seems to be interested in the reactions of the workers. It’s my belief that some alien UFOs have the ability to read feelings and thoughts from a distance. I am confident it is real. SCW

Iraq Shining Object

 Maysan Province – This mysterious shining object was seen falling from the sky in the Abot area on February 24, 2015 at about seven o’clock.  It fell in the west Iraq bordering the Iran border without knowing what it was.
The object is linked to the mysterious umbrella that has pulled down a plane. A security source in Maysan police reported that “a joint security force of border police and K9 and the departments of intelligence and national security body headed to the fall of the area and did not yet know the results of a survey.  http://alhurrya.com/archives/64822

Ireland Two Lights

Cork – I went into shopping mall at Wilton and bought biscuits and went outside to enjoy them facing Cork City on March 27, 2015, and spotted two lights in the sky. The lights were about 5 inches apart in the sky; the one on the left was a little below the one on the right. Then they started to move closer to each other with slight circular motions. They moved apart and then close to each other a few times. The lights were blinking on and off numerous times.

 I am having experiences since 5 years old and can assure you that Jesus is God and Lord and as the bible says, “No weapon formed against God will prosper, look what happened to Jesus and yet I know that he lives.” I have been shot at and made a miracle escape. These entities are either obedient or disobedient to the Lord, and I wouldn’t like to be the one who is disobedient to him as, the bible says he and his followers are the winners in the end. So if I was you I would get born again and saved, it’s the most important thing to do as it secures your eternity, in Jesus precious name, amen.” Thanks to MUFON CMS

Italy Disc

 Siginella — I was on my way back to the U.S. and had just got out of the Navy and was with two friends and thought it’s a perfect time to take a picture of Mount Etna on January 18. 2013.

I did not observe the disc when I took the picture and noticed it some weeks later.  I cannot make it out and it doesn’t look like any plane I ever seen in my life. Thanks to MUFON CMS.

Mexico Blue Orb

Tijuana – This glowing blue UFO was seen on April 14, 2015, that has a disk shape.  It moved from side to side. The video is short of the object and is actually two videos of about 30 seconds each.  Most people don’t even bother recording UFOs.

 It’s nice that we can see how it moves and the intensity of its light. Reminds me of the USAF project Aurora, which once crashed in Needles, California. SCW

 Spain Lights

Seville — I was taking some pictures of the cathedral of Seville by night with my iPhone 6 plus on April 9, 2015.

Looking at the pictures next morning, I discovered three lights next to the tower which I did not see the night before. I felt very excited and hope I have finally spotted an UFO.

Note: The lights in the sky may be a reflection on the lens of the three lights on the lamp. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 Switzerland UFO

 Biel Bienne – This craft is frequently spotted including April 20, 2015. It is seen every few months, so it is likely there is an underground alien base nearby.

This holds true with this new video from a French speaking part of Switzerland. He has recorded this UFO 49 times and has 49 videos that date back to 2012 as proof. SCW

 UK/England Triangle

Bingham, Nott’s — I am 61 years old and recently retired from the teaching profession.

I just found some old Nott’s UFO sightings on the BBC website which I came across by accident. It reminded me of an event years ago which had left me stunned when I lived in Syerston, in the Nottinghamshire countryside where there is little light pollution.

One night in 1990, I saw a huge object about the size of a football pitch that covered the whole area above my house and garden. It was silently moving very slowly at ‘cycling’ pace, about 100 feet above me. It was basically a huge black triangle in shape, with the corners cut off.  There was a very low ‘thrumming’ noise with illumination near its edges. I was in total shock. It gradually went out of sight. Thanks to David Bishop UFOinfo.com

UK/Wales

Swansea Bay — As I’m looking at the water on July 12, 2012, I notice what looks to be green fireworks over the Mumbles area of Swansea, seen in my pictures. These seven objects were falling in formation like a firework would, going upwards and outwards from a central point until gently falling downwards, until they all stopped dead midair. At this point, one turned red, and moved up and to the right from where it was, and then the other objects formed up in a perfect line behind it. They were all lined up and perfectly spaced between themselves and flew in the same plane.  Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK/Scotland Cloud Discs

Ullapool – This UFO was caught during sunset on April 10, 2015. “As I have said before, a UFO cloak becomes most vulnerable during sunset; due to the fact the sunlight is a major part of the cloak. What I mean is that light bends around the ship from behind and moves 180 degrees around the ship on all sides (person is below the ship is in the center, the sun is in the sky).”

However, if the sun is setting then one side of the ship has to over compensate…meaning to bend light 180+90 degrees more! This is not possible if the shield is to work fully.
Neil Borthwick captured the pictures of flying-saucer shaped clouds from his home in Ullapool last night after he saw them above Loch Broom. The 54 year old soon posted them online, prompting conspiracy theories to blossom.

Venezuela Strange UFO Spotted

Cementerio Del Este — Six people witnessed the transit of a large luminous object over El Hatillo in northeastern Miranda State, in the Venezuelan capital region on March 12, 2015. “At around 10 p.m. we were chatting as a group on an apartment terrace when one person asked us in astonishment to look skyward, and we saw three lights forming a triangle,” said Jacqueline. According to her account, the blinking lights were red, white and green. She said, “After noticing the silent hovering object, all the dogs in the area began to bark.”It made a sudden turn to the right, remained there for a while, and then repeated the same action in different directions,” she added. The object then began descending slowly and vanished. NOTE: The above image is a rendering.  Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldUFOphotos.org

Zaire Disc

Port Elizabeth — This evening my sister went to dinner at a hotel with her fiancé on June 19, 2015. After dinner they went outside to see the fountain lighting show. It was a bit cold and they were the only people outside. There were no objects or any trees or bushes nearby.

She took a few pictures to send to us in Cape Town and only discovered the next morning when she wanted to send the pictures the strange object on the images. She said they did not hear anything and there were no planes/helicopters at that time which was about 9 PM in the evening. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UFO specialist shares experiences

Photo: NickPope.net

Nick Pope, a science fiction author and one of the world’s leading UFO experts, will present a lecture on his research and investigations into extraterrestrial phenomenon 7 p.m. Thursday in Rogers-Stout Hall Room 102.

The event is coordinated by the Mary B. Martin School of the Arts and the ETSU Department of Literature and Languages.

Pope is originally from London and developed a 21-year career of investigating UFOs at the Ministry of Defense in the United Kingdom.

“I had to investigate all the sightings reported to me, but I knew that most of these things were going to turn out to be misidentifications,” Pope said. “I would interview the people, I would check whether anything unusual was tracked on radar. If we had a photograph or a video, I would send it to various air force experts, and I tried to be open minded in my approach and just come to a conclusion about what was going on.”

Pope’s responsibility during these investigations was to find out the precise date, time and location of the sighting and provide a detailed description — shape, speed, size and color of the object.

“Most sightings obviously did turn out just to be crossed light, weather balloons, meteoroids, that sort of thing,” Pope said. “But 5 percent we couldn’t explain and I think this is where it gets controversial.”

These inexplicable instances were mysterious because there were sometimes multiple witnesses, such as police officers or military personnel, and the sightings were sometimes backed up by photographic and video evidence.

Some sightings could also be tracked on radar and undergo a technical analysis.

“We couldn’t entirely rule out that theory but we certainly couldn’t prove it either,” Pope said.

Pope said many people believe mysteries and unexplained theories are in some way connected with UFOs.

“We’ve got people who claimed to have been abducted by aliens, we’ve got people who wanted to ask what we knew about crop circles,” Pope said. “I think, in conspiracy theories, the government is always the bad guy so we were the ones really being accused of a cover-up and we had many people who were sometimes quite hostile.”

Pope said the way to react to this was to try to be supportive and keep an open mind.

“We wanted to solve the mystery, but people always think the government has all the answers, but the funny thing is often that is not the case,” Pope said.

Some of Pope’s former investigations are in the process of being declassified and released to the public.

“We recognize that there is a lot of interest in this and we genuinely tried to be helpful,” Pope said. “We always tried to help them with information but of course there were a small number of people that didn’t believe us and thought we had a spaceship hidden away in an air force hangar somewhere.”

Pope later applied what he learned conducting these investigations to his science fiction writing.

He is the author of two sci-fi novels: “Operation Thunder Child” and its sequel “Operation Lightning Strike.”

On Thursday and Friday, Pope will speak in two classes: Creative Writing Fiction and Studies in English: Monsters and Literature to share his experience with science fiction .

“I like to challenge myself, so my first books were non-fiction and I just wrote about my own government investigations on UFOs, but then I thought it would be more challenging to take that a step further and ask what if,” Pope said. “I think people are fascinated by the idea of where science and technology might take you.”

Researchers discover what was located on top of the Great Pyramid in Egypt

April 25, 2015 - The investigations of renowned Spanish architect Miguel Pérez-Sánchez that lasted over ten years, allowed  him to rebuild via computer models and with great accuracy, the pyramid of Cheops and determine that it was “crowned” by a sphere of 2 meters in diameter.

Pérez Sánchez announced his discovery in a publication of the book containing his doctoral thesis where he explained that “the pyramid of Cheops, according to analysis, demonstrates that it was an encyclopedia of knowledge.”

The Great Pyramid is the most important building of the Old Kingdom, it is one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, the only one that remains standing today. Devoid of its original coating blocks of white limestone, the great Pyramid lacks its summit which gave the pyramid another 9 meters in height. Now, researchers know the exact shape of the object that was placed on top of the pyramid.



As proposed by Pérez-Sánchez, the sphere that the ancient Egyptians placed at the top of the pyramid symbolized the Eye of Horus and had a diameter of 2,718 royal cubits (2.7 meters), which is the accurate measure of the number e. The sphere located on the Pyramid was placed as a worship to the Sun and Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, which was associated with Isis.

Pérez-Sánchez had the support of a multidisciplinary team in his investigation, allowing him to construct a computer replica of the Great Pyramid like never before.

The three-dimensional drawing of the Great Pyramid has revealed its original measurements, analyzing it, allowed researchers to understand the historical significance of the monument. In addition of the sphere located on top of the pyramid, missing today, analysis enabled researchers to find out the inclination angle of 51,84º, the platform that supported the sphere with a pi perimeter of royal cubits; and the height of the pyramidal vertex of 277 778 cubits, equal to the quotient of dividing 1,000,000 between 3,600. According to Pérez-Sánchez, the discovery of the original shape and dimensions of the Great Pyramid, its reconstruction and analysis revealed an architecture made of pure mathematics, geometry, geodesy and astronomy.



The original surface of the pyramid, now in ruins, was 100,000 times the number pi (π) 3000 years ahead of the understanding of π.

The ancient Egyptians that planned the Pyramid had an incredible scientific knowledge, understanding the Pythagorean Theorem two millennium ahead of time, a precision in the definition of pi with 6 decimals 3 millennia ahead of its time, including the knowledge of the number e, and the accurate measures of the Earth, Sun and Sirius anticipated over 4 millennia.

The geodesic dependence of the Great Pyramid has been confirmed by scaling relations based on the sexagesimal system. The weight of the pyramid is estimated at 5,955,000 tons. Multiplied by 10^8 gives a reasonable estimate of the earth’s mass. It also represents the Sun’s Radius: Twice the perimeter of the bottom of the granite coffer times 10^8 is the sun’s mean radius. [270.45378502 Pyramid Inches* 10^8 = 427,316 miles]

Thanks to the astronomical data provided by Plutarch, researchers managed to place the incredible monument in its historical context understanding why Pharaoh Khufu had commissioned these incredible projects.



This is believed to be the reason why, Snefru, father of Khufu, built during his reign, three pyramids in search for the “perfect pyramid” which explains the efforts of the architects of the Pyramid, to include within the Great Pyramid, their knowledge of the past.

More importantly, Pérez-Sánchez mentions the great Sphinx in his work, stating that “the Great Sphinx is not contemporary with the pyramids that surround it, but it is the product of a much earlier civilization that shaped and carved it around the eight millennium BC.

"Alien Light" --A Key to the Discovery of Habitable Worlds

Swiss cheese universe: Enormous hole in the universe may not be the only one

April 24, 2015 - Astronomers have found evidence of a giant void that could be the largest known structure in the universe. The “supervoid” solves a controversial cosmic puzzle: it explains the origin of a large and anomalously cold region of the sky. However, future observations are needed to confirm the discovery and determine whether the void is unique.

The so-called cold spot can be seen in maps of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), which is the radiation left over from the birth of the universe. It was first discovered by NASA’s Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) in 2004 and confirmed by ESA’s Planck Satellite. For more than a decade, astronomers have failed to explain its existence. But there has been no shortage of suggestions, with unproven and controversial theories being put forward including imprints of parallel universes, called the multiverse theory, and exotic physics in the early universe.

Now an international team of astronomers led by Istvan Szapudi of the Institute for Astronomy at The University of Hawaii at Manoa have found evidence for one of the theories: a supervoid, in which the density of galaxies is much lower than usual in the known universe.

To understand the effect of a void, imagine the universe is like a Swiss cheese, with holes – voids – corresponding to empty spaces devoid of matter and gravitational pull. When a photon, a particle of light, from the CMB encounters a void it will lose energy but regain it as it exits.

However, since we believe that the universe is constantly expanding, the photon will exit into a medium that is less dense than before it entered the void. Lower density means weaker gravitational pull on the emerging photon. This means that the photon cannot make up all the energy it lost and ends up with a little less energy – and hence lower temperature – than light from regions on the sky that did not pass through the void.

This process explains why the spot is 70 μK colder than the surrounding chilly CMB radiation, which is 2.7 K in whichever direction one looks on the sky. Tiny fluctuations imprinted by processes in the early universe do exist in this remarkably even temperature distribution, but they typically only differ by 18μK.

But it isn’t the first time researchers have claimed to find a supervoid that explains the cold spot. In 2007, radio astronomers announced they had found a low density region when they counted the number of radio sources towards the direction of the cold spot but competing studies at visible wavelengths appeared to dispute their findings.

Other studies searched for voids at particular distance – or redshifts – towards the direction of the cold spot but found no convincing evidence of any deficit in galaxy counts. To count the galaxies closer to home and check for the existence of a nearby void required a significant increase in the area of the sky astronomers could survey. This capability came with new catalogues of objects identified in wide-field all-sky surveys.

Istvan and his team used two sets of data by matching objects discovered at infrared wavelengths by Nasa’s Wide Field Survey Explorer (WISE) with colours in visible light measured by the robotic telescope Pan-STARRS1 to make a tomographic map of the distribution of galaxies in the cold spot.

A dip in the numbers of galaxies in the centre of the cold spot signaled the presence of the largest known structure in the universe – a supervoid stretching 1.8 billion light years across the sky when universe was 11.1 billion years old – which is relatively recent on cosmic timescales.

This is an exciting result – but the study is complex, with a number of errors that can creep in due to various assumptions. Understanding the density of the universe on near and far sides of the void is more challenging than one might expect and the simple assumption of a single, giant void is – as the authors point out – likely to be naive. More detailed maps of the supervoid will help determine whether it has substructure within it.



But future observations mapping different regions of the sky will also check how rare the void is. The chance of an accidental alignment between the cold spot and the supervoid seems small, but not impossible. The race is therefore on to find other voids in order to confirm the supervoid’s relationship with the cold spot. The team already have plans to use the Dark Energy Camera -– which recently shed new light on dark matter – to investigate another candidate void near the constellation Draco. Ultimately, understanding the nature of voids and cold spots might require modifications to our favourite cosmological models or perhaps even models of gravity itself.

The  }is exciting not just for cosmologists, but also for technologists. In the future, new facilities – such as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope – will survey the whole sky every few nights for a decade. Mining the torrent of data that will allow astronomers to search for large-scale structures such as voids and clusters and to make discoveries of new explosive or time-variable objects such as supernovae and gamma ray bursts. Combining these approaches in a new era of data-driven discovery may open new, exciting windows on our universe.

The Secret Past of Antarctica

Antarctica was once Atlantis. An antediluvian island continent paradise from where evil nephilim overlords ruled the entire Earth with great ruthlessness using occult knowledge that included things like black magick & super advanced technology taught to them by their fathers - the watchers that fell in the days of Jared [see 1 Enoch 9:6-9]. 

Related: Ruins Of Ancient City Found In Antarctica

Poseidonis was the capital of Atlantis. The island continent appeared to sink into the ocean during the Great Deluge mentioned in Genesis 6:5-7,11-13 & 7:17,19-24. Later it was flash frozen due to sudden global crustal displacement where it was covered with ice until the Nazis learned from esoteric Tibetan monks that Antarctica used to be Atlantis during their expedition there from 1938-1939.

The Nazis built Base 211 in Antarctica and started searching for all the flash frozen advanced technology which they tried to retro-engineer until the Americans took over the operation during Operation Highjump.

The Americans then took all the technology found then and later during Operations Deep Freeze with all the occult Nazi scientists back to the U.S.A. to keep retro-engineering all the technology in D.U.M.B.s hidden in the remote desert plus start the process of releasing some of the fallen watchers in the same areas.

This technology will be used to sell the "alien" strong delusion to an unsuspecting public to help set up the NWO of the antichrist with the fallen watchers, djinn, neo-nephilim, genetic hybrids, and evil human minions pretending to be the different kinds of "aliens".

"Hacking the Chemical Fingerprint of the Universe" --Detecting Organic Molecules in Space

The terahertz region of the spectrum is chock-full of information. Everything in the universe that is warmer than about 10 degrees Kelvin (-263 degrees Celsius) gives off terahertz radiation. Even at these very low temperatures molecules can rotate in space, yielding unique fingerprints in the terahertz. Astronomers using telescopes such as Caltech's Submillimeter Observatory, the Atacama Large Millimeter Array, and the Herschel Space Observatory are searching stellar nurseries and planet-forming disks at terahertz frequencies, looking for such chemical fingerprints to try to determine the kinds of molecules that are present and thus available to planetary systems. But in just a single chunk of the sky, it would not be unusual to find signatures of 25 or more different molecules.

Video shows UFO near Chile’s erupting volcano

(Before It's News)

openminds.tv

A woman recently posted a video showing a UFO hovering near Chile’s erupting Calbuco volcano.

The volcano erupted on Wednesday, April 22 for the first time in more than forty two years. Four thousand residents were forced to evacuate the area as ash and smoke filled the sky.

Ana Luisa Cid, a UFO researcher in Mexico City, put together a compilation of volcano eruption videos that show the aerial object seemingly hovering near the Calbuco volcano. And this UFO appears to have two very bright white lights.

Ana Luisa Cid points out that some have suggested the UFO is simply a drone or helicopter gathering aerial footage of the volcano. But she also comments, “What is striking, in my opinion, is that the object remained static, then vanished. Optical illusion?”

At least one helicopter and one plane were in the sky during the volcano’s eruption.

TVN, Chile’s state-owned television network, posted an aerial video of the volcano eruption shot by a helicopter pilot.

And Chile news station T13 posted a video story on April 23 about the “pilot who was mistaken for a UFO.” The media outlet interviewed pilot Vicente Beasley who was reportedly flying a Cessna 206 during the volcano eruption. Beasley also captured video of the volcano’s plume.

UFOs have been seen near volcanos several times in recent years. A video recorded in 2012 even shows what some believe is a UFO flying into the Popocatépetl volcano in Mexico. Some UFO researchers believe UFOs are either attracted to volcanos, or that the pilots of extraterrestrial spacecraft have hidden bases inside volcanos.

But in the case of this most recent UFO near an erupting volcano, pilot Vincente Beasley’s testimony and supporting video footage make it pretty likely that his plane is the UFO seen in the video posted by Ana Luisa Cid and others.

Dr. Steven Greer: Dozens Of Benevolent ET Species Are Here, Eager To Make Contact

(Before It's News)

Dr. Steven Greer: Dozens Of Benevolent ET Species Are Here, Eager To Make Contact

by Alexander Light

In a recent interview, Dr. Steven Greer stated that, to his knowledge, there are dozens of benevolent Extraterrestrial species who are eager to make contact with us.

“These beings are very eager to find humans who are enlightened, who approach them peacefully, because what our covert, classified, military projects have been doing is try to track these objects and shoot them down.” – Dr. Steve Greer

In Dr. Greer’s opinion, the UFO phenomenon intensified after the development of nuclear weapons, when we became a threat to our own existence, the planet we inhabit and possibly to other intelligent species in the Universe as well.

“I think they [the aliens] have been here, around, for many thousands of years; I surely doubt it’s a recent phenomenon.

“I think that if you look at this and talk to people in the British intelligence and people in the United States Military, the real increase in these events happened around the time we started detonating nuclear weapons and at the same time we started going out in the space.

“You have to understand that any civilization that has reached a point of peaceful coexistence, who would see us evolving out of the time of World War II into this post WWII period, where we began to go into space, but at the same time began to develop hydrogen bombs and nuclear weapons.

“I think this would put a big red flag over this planet and my understanding is that they are quite concerned about what we are doing to this planet and also that we don’t turn loose on the Universe, where we can be a threat to other planets that are existing peacefully and do not even have the concept of warfare and weapon systems.”

Also, Dr. Greer does not believe in alien abductions and mutilations stating that, in his opinion, all of them are staged by the government as a scare tactic, so that we don’t oppose the idea of weaponizing the space.

“The big mythology in the new age world is that there are the good ones and the bad ones and, in reality, most of that is disinformation created by the intelligence community to scare people because, eventually, they would like to have us put all these weapons into space and spend trillions of dollars on Star Wars [technology]. And this is exactly what we’ve done.

“I have folks who worked on these [programs] in the 1960s, where we already had weapon systems that were based in space, that were targeting these extraterrestrial vehicles. This has been going on for 40 years.”

Dr. Greer also stated that, to his knowledge, none of the dozens of ET species that are visiting us are hostile.

In his own words, “some of them [the ETs] are quite worried of our hostility and have done things to try to contain us… like a quarantine.”

You can listen to the entire interview bellow and please enjoy the wonderful CGI footage of benevolent ETs operating in space and around alien worlds:

Numerous examples of making contact with UFOs, by using a powerful laser (night vision footage):

In5D Addendum

by Gregg Prescott, M.S.
Editor, In5D.com

Unfortunately, night vision goggles are not available in all countries, not can they be ordered from countries who prohibit them.

On YouTube, you’ll see videos of people “calling” UFO’s with infrared laser pens (see image to the left). They’ll also use these pens to point out UFO’s to other people who may be UFO watching with them.

Many of the highest quality night vision goggles and monoculars cost several thousand dollars. Most of us can’t afford a “Generation 3″ or “Gen 4″ type of monocular/goggle, but there are alternatives.

I have a Yukon 5×42 Digital Night Vision Ranger monocular and it’s hard to go longer than 10 minutes without seeing a UFO. You can find this particular monocular brand new on Amazon for under $400.

I also have an ATN PVS7 Gen 3 Night vision goggle with an Alpha tube that is simply amazing but these types of goggle will run from $2,200- $4,000+.

The difference between the Yukon 5×42 Digital Night Vision Ranger monocular and the ATN PVS7 Gen 3 Night vision goggle is like trying to watch television without cable on a black and white TV while using “rabbit ears” for an antenna versus watching a high quality DVD on a 50″ HDTV… not that I watch much TV to begin with… LOL

If you’re looking for something in night vision goggles that is better than your own two eyes AND affordable, go with the Night Ranger monocular. OR… save up and get a good pair of night vision goggles. Either choice will show you more UFO’s than what you can see with the naked eye!

Was JFK killed because of his interest in aliens? Secret memo shows president demanded UFO files 10 days before death

(Before It's News)

An uncovered letter written by John F Kennedy to the head of the CIA shows that the president demanded to be shown highly confidential documents about UFOs 10 days before his assassination.

The secret memo is one of two letters written by JFK asking for information about the paranormal on November 12 1963, which have been released by the CIA for the first time.

Author William Lester said the CIA released the documents to him under the Freedom of Information Act after he made a request while researching his new book ‘A Celebration of Freedom: JFK and the New Frontier.’

Assassination: Was JFK shot to stop him discovering the truth about UFOs?
 

The president’s interest in UFOs shortly before his death is likely to fuel conspiracy theories about his assassination, according to AOL News.

Alien researchers say the latest documents, released to Mr Lester by the CIA, add weight to the suggestion that the president could have been shot to stop him discovering the truth about UFOs.

In one of the secret documents released under the Freedom of Information Act, JFK writes to the director asking for the UFO files.

Released: Letter from JFK to CIA director asking for access to UFO files, which has been released to an author under the Freedom of Information Act

In the second memo, sent to the NASA administrator, the president expresses a desire for cooperation with the former Soviet Union on mutual outer space activities.

The previously classified documents were released under the Freedom of Information Act to teacher William Lester as part of research for a new book about JFK.

He said that JFK’s interest in UFOs could have been fuelled by concerns about relations with the former Soviet Union.

Beam me up: Days before he was killed, JFK wrote to the CIA demanding access to their files about UFOs

Unclassified: A second memo written by JFK on November 12 1963, 10 days before his assassination, which has been released by the CIA
 

‘One of his concerns was that a lot of these UFOs were being seen over the Soviet Union and he was very concerned that the Soviets might misinterpret these UFOs as U.S. aggression, believing that it was some of our technology,’ Mr Lester told AOL News.

‘I think this is one of the reasons why he wanted to get his hands on this information and get it away from the jurisdiction of NASA so he could say to the Soviets, “Look, that’s not us, we’re not doing it, we’re not being provocative. “.’

But conspiracy theorists said the documents add interest to a disputed file, nicknamed the ‘burned memo’, which a UFO investigator claims he received in the 1990s.

The document, which has scorch marks, is claimed to have been posted to UFO hunter Timothy Cooper in 1999 by an unknown CIA leak, but has never been verified.

Disputed: In the ‘burned memo’ the CIA director allegedly wrote: ‘Lancer [JFK] has made some inquiries regarding our activities, which we cannot allow’
 

In a note sent with the document, the apparent leaker said he worked for CIA between 1960 and 1974 and pulled the memo from a fire when the agency was burning some of its most sensitive files.

The undated memo contains a reference to ‘Lancer’, which was JFK’s Secret Service code name.

On the first page, the director of Central Intelligence wrote: ‘As you must know, Lancer has made some inquiries regarding our activities, which we cannot allow.

‘Please submit your views no later than October. Your action to this matter is critical to the continuance of the group.’

The current owner of the ‘burned memo’, who bought it from Timothy Cooper in 2001 told AOL News that it shows that when JFK asked questions about UFOs that the CIA ‘bumped him off’.

UFO investigator Robert Wood said he has tested the paper it was printed on, the ink age, watermarks, font types and other markings.

He said: ‘I hired a forensics company to check the age of the ink and check several other things that you can date, using the same techniques you’d use in a court of law.’

VIDEO: Egyptoloog Zahi Hawass loopt woest weg uit debat over geschiedenis van de wereld

Op 22 april stond in een hotel in Caïro het eerste open debat tussen aanhangers van twee compleet verschillende theorieën over de geschiedenis van de wereld gepland. Op die dag zouden de beroemde egyptoloog dr. Zahi Hawass en de Britse schrijver en journalist Graham Hancock met elkaar in debat gaan.

Vlak voor het debat keek Hancock nog even naar zijn slides, toen dr. Hawass een foto voorbij zag komen van de Belgische auteur Robert Bauval, waar Hawass in het verleden vaak onenigheid mee heeft gehad. Dr. Hawass werd gelijk woest en begon te schreeuwen naar Hancock en zijn vrouw Santha (de vrouw met de witte jurk).

Orion

Hawass eiste dat Hancock alle verwijzingen naar Robert Bauval en diens Orion-correlatie-theorie zou verwijderen. Die theorie veronderstelt dat de drie grote piramides op het Gizeh-plateau overeenkomen met de drie sterren in de riem van Orion. Toen Hancock uitlegde dat hij de alternatieve kijk op de geschiedenis niet kon uitleggen zonder te verwijzen naar de theorie van Bauval begon Hawass opnieuw te schreeuwen en liep hij woest de zaal uit.

Eén van de bezoekers wist de tirade van Hawass vast te leggen op video. Terwijl de zaal langzaam volstroomde, wisten de organisatoren van het debat dr. Hawass er toch van te overtuigen terug te keren naar de zaal. Hawass weigerde echter om de presentatie van Hancock te volgen.

Göbekli Tepe

Na de lezing van Hawass stelde één van de aanwezigen de vraag of het 11.600 jaar oude bergheiligdom Göbekli Tepe in Turkije invloed heeft gehad op het bepalen van de leeftijd van de Sfinx van Gizeh. Hancock en anderen hebben namelijk gesuggereerd dat beide complexen mogelijk even oud zijn. Dr. Hawass leek niet op de hoogte te zijn van het bestaan van Göbekli Tepe en was niet in staat om de vraag te beantwoorden.

VIDEO: Lichtstraal van mysterieus object gezien bij vulkaan in Chili

Televisiecamera’s hebben een mysterieus vliegend object vastgelegd tijdens een vulkaanuitbarsting in het zuiden van Chili. Dat meldt persbureau Sputnik.

De Calbuco-vulkaan is voor het eerst in ruim 40 jaar onverwacht uitgebarsten. Uit voorzorg werden zo’n 4000 inwoners van een nabijgelegen dorp geëvacueerd. Vluchten in de regio zijn geannuleerd omdat de vulkanische as toestellen kan beschadigen.

De vulkaan ligt in de buurt van de populaire toeristenplaats Puerto Varas, zo’n 1000 kilometer ten zuiden van de hoofdstad Santiago. Vanuit Puerto Varas was de kilometershoge aspluim goed te zien.

Volgens de directeur van de regionale hulpdiensten kwam de uitbarsting als ‘een verrassing’. Hij zei dat Calbuco niet onder speciale observatie stond. De laatste grote uitbarsting van de vulkaan was in 1961, al was er nog een kleinere eruptie in 1972.

In de aswolk werd ook een mysterieuze lichtstraal van een ongeïdentificeerd object vastgelegd. Sommigen beweren dat het gaat om een UFO, al is niet duidelijk waarom een UFO helemaal naar de aarde zou afreizen om in een actieve vulkaan te duiken.

Professionele fotograaf legt UFO vast boven Rome ( Video ) 

Wanneer een professionele fotograaf een opname maakt van een UFO dan vind men dat toch wel wat extra bijzonders hebben.

De reden zal ongetwijfeld zijn dat men denkt dat goedbedoelende amateurs allemaal dingen zien die er niet zijn, maar dat professionele fotografen voldoende getraind zijn om werkelijkheid te kunnen onderscheiden van fictie.


Het volgende geval is uitgebreid in het mainstream nieuws geweest in Italië.

Een professionele fotograaf was bezig met het filmen van een vliegtuig vanaf de patio van zijn woning in één van de buitenwijken van Rome.

Terwijl hij filmde merkte hij het object niet op, maar toen hij na de opname de beelden bekeek, zag hij een vreemd vliegend object verschijnen.

De filmopname is  onderzocht door het Mediterranean UFO Center. Zij hebben uitgesloten dat het hier om een vogel of iets dergelijks zou kunnen gaan en dat de filmopname echt is.

Afgezien van dat soort vaststellingen kan ook de onderzoeker, Angelo Maggioni, geen antwoord geven op de vraag waarmee we hier te maken hebben.

Deze UFO lijkt uiterlijk wel enigszins op die die heel regelmatig boven het Zwitserse Biel/Bienne wordt waargenomen. Wie weet hoort deze UFO in Rome wel thuis in de buitenaardse basis in Zwitserland.

Former Canadian Defence Minister Hopes To Get Support From The Masses About UFO Disclosure

Stories of alleged UFO cover-ups by world governments have been around for many years. Though no substantial evidence to prove that they’re true, many believe that such high-level secrets exist. Former Canadian defence ministry talks about the alleged cover up in a series of speaking tours.

In the “Disclosure Canada Tour,” keynote speaker Paul Hellyer spoke to the crowd of approximately 400 people at the University of Calgary on Saturday. Canada’s defence minister in the 1960s, Hellyer, and other speakers are on tour. The series of tours is urging the government to release all the classified information about UFOs.

The 91-year-old Ontarian first became vocal about his belief that governments are hiding the truth on the presence of extraterrestrials in 2005. He said UFOs are as common in the sky as airplanes.

Hellyer said that he is committed to spreading the word about his beliefs, and he has showed that in participating the tour.

Hellyer is aware that not much of the media touch about the UFO subject and the disclosure. So, he and other speakers on the tour just have to keep working away. They’re hoping that the day will come where they get the support of the masses, and they’ll say in once voice, “Prime Minister or President we want the truth now because it affects our lives.”

The tour is scheduled for another session on Sunday in Vancouver.

Navy drone makes history with refueling maneuver

While flying off the coast of Maryland and Virginia, the X-47B, an unmanned vehicle designed to eventually operate off naval aircraft carriers, successfully connected to an Omega K-707 refueling tanker and received more than 4,000 pounds of fuel, the Navy said in a press release.

READ: U.S. Warships near Yemen create 'options'

"What we accomplished today demonstrates a significant, groundbreaking step forward for the Navy," Capt. Beau Duarte, the manager for the Navy's Unmanned Carrier Aviation program, said in the release. "The ability to autonomously transfer and receive fuel in flight will increase the range and flexibility of future unmanned aircraft platforms, ultimately extending carrier power projection."

<img alt="The X-47B receives fuel in flight April 22nd." class="media__image" src="http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnnnext/dam/assets/150422171833-drone-refuels-in-flight-for-first-time-large-169.jpg">

The X-47B receives fuel in flight April 22nd.

EXPAND IMAGE

This is the latest in a series of firsts for the remotely piloted plane that the Navy hopes to develop into a battle-ready aircraft that can operate safely alongside its manned counterparts aboard aircraft carriers.

In 2013, an X-47B became the first unmanned aircraft to take off and land from an aircraft carrier, although all other aircraft were removed from the deck before the test flight. Last year, it became the first such aircraft to take off and land alongside a manned plane, an F/A-18 Hornet on the USS Theodore Roosevelt.

It was not known going into the test whether the aircraft would be able to effectively maneuver its probe used to take in fuel with the tanker's drogue, also called the basket, in the same way a pilot would be able to position their aircraft in a refueling operation.

"In manned platforms, aerial refueling is a challenging maneuver because of the precision required by the pilot to engage the basket," Duarte said. "Adding an autonomous functionality creates another layer of complexity."

A part of the Navy's Unmanned-Carrier Launched Airborne Surveillance and Strike system, the X-47B will eventually be developed into follow on aircraft the Navy hopes to deploy into operation in 2020 or beyond.

UFO-Alien Abduction Still Haunts Travis Walton

This is a depiction of three beings that Travis Walton says he confronted during what he described as a UFO abduction in 1975. | William Keeble / Onwinges Prod.

Close encounters of the FOURTH kind. That's when a person claims to have been kidnapped by a UFO and its reportedly otherworldly occupants.

Of course, there's no tangible evidence that anyone has ever been taken aboard an extraterrestrial spacecraft. But there are those who claim they've been abducted, and their stories are chilling.

Travis Walton's terrifying account is the stuff movies are made from, and he joins us on the HuffPost Weird News podcast to talk about that day 40 years ago, when the then 22-year-old logger says he was knocked unconscious, and woke up to find he was surrounded by ETs aboard their ship.

LISTEN: ALIEN ABDUCTION PODCAST

"It was a metallic, glowing disc, making some very strange sounds," Walton told us. "The closer I got to it, the more scared we all got and they were swearing at me to get away from there, and when I got up close, it suddenly got louder and started to move.

"I jumped for cover and then jumped up to run back to the truck, and that's when this blast of energy hit me, and I just felt this numbing shock go through my body. But the crew said it threw me through the air 10 or 20 feet and I landed in a way that they were immediately certain it had killed me, and they fled."

The incident began on Nov. 5, 1975, after a long day of work in the Sitgreaves National Forest near Heber, Arizona. Walton and six other loggers were heading home when they suddenly saw a 40-foot-diameter shiny disc hovering in the air.

Walton first told his extraordinary story in a 1978 book, "The Walton Experience," which became a 1993 film, "Fire In The Sky." His account has just been turned into a candid documentary, "Travis: The True Story of Travis Walton."

Walton reveals the terrifying details of his experience at the hands of several "non-human" beings, and his feelings of suffocation and the fear that he was dying as the event unfolded.

Watch this trailer for 'Travis: The True Story of Travis Walton'

"When I was first able to focus my eyes good enough, I was still on the table. And as soon as I saw this face, and knew it wasn't human, I tried to hit it away from me. They were much smaller than me, and I think that's the reason they gave up. Once they found out they couldn't control me, they split. I was absolutely terrified."

Walton, pictured at right, was declared missing for five days, during which time his logger buddies fell under suspicion of foul play. When Walton finally turned up again, not knowing how long he'd been gone, an intense investigation was underway, including multiple polygraph, physical and psychological tests.

He tells HuffPost about little known aftermath details, including subsequent research in the forest area which has shown an unusual growth rate in trees in the immediate vicinity of the encounter.

"About 15 years later, it was discovered that the trees nearest to where [the UFO] hovered had been producing wood fiber at 36 times the rate it had in the 85 years before that," Walton says. "More recently, a complete core sampling revealed that this thickened growth was only on the side of the trees towards, or in the direction that the craft had been."

Walton addresses the stigma that he and so many other people -- who claim encounters with possible alien beings -- are generally considered unreliable wackos.

"The scientific evidence of the likelihood of intelligent life in our vicinity has become so overwhelming that the people who believe that we're alone in the universe -- those are the kooks."

To commemorate the 40th anniversary of his close encounter, Walton will speak at the November Skyfire Summit in Arizona. On the agenda is a road trip to the exact spot where this four-decade-long controversy began.

Mysterious Radio Bursts Are Indeed Coming From A Galaxy Far, Far Away

April 23, 2015 - In 2001, the Parkes Radio Telescope picked up an extremely energetic burst of radio waves that lasted a mere five-thousandths of a second. Since then, astronomers have found several more so-called fast radio bursts, or FRBs, and even observed one of these pulses in real time last May. Based on these observations, the FRBs seem to be coming from more than 3 billion light years away, far beyond the Milky Way.

The origin of fast radio bursts is still unknown: They might come from an incredibly heavy, incredibly fast-spinning magnetar throwing off flares, or from a massive collision between dense neutron stars—or from something else entirely. "You need something that happens on a very short time scale and can produce a ton of energy," says Emily Petroff, a graduate student at Swinburne University of Technology in Australia. Other researchers have speculated that FRBs are the products of human--or alien--technology, and some doubted that the bursts came from outside the galaxy at all.

But now, the debate surrounding FRBs' origins may be put to rest at last. Researchers have determined the source of a signal remarkably similar to FRBs, clearing the reputation of these bursts and where they come from.

What makes researchers think fast radio bursts are coming from outside the galaxy? An FRB signal is "spread out" in time, meaning the waves that make up an FRB don't arrive at a radio telescope all at once. This spreading effect can happen when a signal passes between stars. While traveling through the interstellar medium, the signal's waves slow down depending on their frequency. By the time the signal reaches a radio telescope, the high-frequency waves have pulled ahead of the low-frequency ones, and thus arrive sooner, stretching out the signal. Fast radio bursts are very stretched out, indicating they come from a galaxy far, far away.

Other researchers, however, point out that the spread effect could have a different cause. Another spread-out signal that radio telescopes have picked up is the peryton. But these bursts definitely don't come from other galaxies, or even other planets. Instead of coming from a single point in the sky, a peryton signal looks like it's coming from all over, a sure sign that its source is very local. Some blame perytons on atmospheric lightning, radio interference, or even telescope glitches. Unfortunately, perytons look pretty similar to FRBs, so they throw doubt on the idea that the bursts are coming from far away. Some astronomers even think FRBs are just another form of perytons, a false signal rather than an extragalactic one.

But perytons' reign of uncertainty is at an end, thanks to three perytons that popped up at the Parkes Radio Telescope in one week this past January. Petroff and other astronomers at Parkes took a look at the telescope's recently installed radio interference monitor, to see what radio activity was going on nearby around the time of the perytons' appearances. The monitor, which gathers a wider range of frequencies than the telescope does, picked up strong emissions at a frequency around 2.5 gigahertz every time the radio telescope had seen perytons. "That led us to thinking, 'What emits at 2.5 gigahertz?'" says Petroff. "And the obvious thing was microwaves."

The next step was to see whether the scientists could use microwaves to make a peryton appear. They ran the machines at different settings and for varying amounts of time, but the radio telescope didn't pick up any new perytons. Then they tried opening the door while the microwave was active. When you pull open the door of a running microwave, its engine, called a magnetron, releases the energy that was bouncing around inside the oven. The discharge sweeps across a range of frequencies as the engine shuts down, creating a stretched-out frequency spread and interfering with the radio telescope's observations. This was the source of the mysterious peryton signal.

Since microwaves are the culprit behind perytons, Petroff and other authors argue in their new paper, their findings strongly suggest that fast radio bursts are indeed coming from space. FRB signals look different from perytons, and they appear even when the telescope is pointed away from peryton-producing microwaves. Timing is another dead giveaway: FRBs appear at all times of day, whether or not humans are on site nuking coffee and making Cup Noodles. Perytons, on the other hand, only occur during business hours. "They all peak right around lunchtime," says Petroff. "So that should have been a red flag."

Britain’s Atlantis Found At Bottom Of North Sea

‘Britain’s Atlantis’ – a hidden underwater world swallowed by the North Sea – has been discovered by divers working with science teams from the University of St Andrews.

Doggerland, a huge area of dry land that stretched from Scotland to Denmark was slowly submerged by water between 18,000 BC and 5,500 BC.

Divers from oil companies have found remains of a ‘drowned world’ with a population of tens of thousands – which might once have been the ‘real heartland’ of Europe.

A team of climatologists, archaeologists and geophysicists has now mapped the area using new data from oil companies – and revealed the full extent of a ‘lost land’ once roamed by mammoths.

The research suggests that the populations of these drowned lands could have been tens of thousands, living in an area that stretched from Northern Scotland across to Denmark and down the English Channel as far as the Channel Islands.

The area was once the ‘real heartland’ of Europe and was hit by ‘a devastating tsunami’, the researchers claim.

The wave was part of a larger process that submerged the low-lying area over the course of thousands of years.

‘The name was coined for Dogger Bank, but it applies to any of several periods when the North Sea was land,’ says Richard Bates of the University of St Andrews. ‘Around 20,000 years ago, there was a ‘maximum’ – although part of this area would have been covered with ice. When the ice melted, more land was revealed – but the sea level also rose.

‘Through a lot of new data from oil and gas companies, we’re able to give form to the landscape – and make sense of the mammoths found out there, and the reindeer. We’re able to understand the types of people who were there.

‘People seem to think rising sea levels are a new thing – but it’s a cycle of Earth history that has happened many many times.’

Organized by Dr Richard Bates of the Department of Earth Sciences at St Andrews, the Drowned Landscapes exhibit reveals the human story behind Doggerland, a now submerged area of the North Sea that was once larger than many modern European countries.

Dr Bates, a geophysicist, said: ‘Doggerland was the real heartland of Europe until sea levels rose to give us the UK coastline of today.

Ancient Paintings depicting Alien Visitors: the Wandjina of Western Australia

Ancient Paintings depicting Alien Visitors: the Wandjina of Western Australia

The most visually striking of the ancient aboriginal paintings can be found in the Kimberly region of Western Australia. Besides bearing a striking resemblance to modern depictions of aliens, the Wandjina figures also have an interesting story to tell.

Due to its proximity to Southern Asia, it is very likely that the Aboriginal Australians settled in the Kimberly region as early as 70,000 years ago. Their mythology is rich and interesting, both in terms of characters and events and the legends surrounding the Wandjina make for a very interesting topic.

As the story goes, the Wandjina created the world and everything within it during a period the Aborigines call Dreamtime. The legend says they came from beyond the stars, acting as civilizing gods and teaching the locals their way of life.

After completing their work, the Wandjina left. According to some stories, they returned to their home, somewhere in the Milky Way. An alternative scenario has the Wandjina painting their likeness on the surfaces of rock shelters before entering the rocks themselves.

Aborigines hold the paintings in high regard and maintain them with a sense of sacred duty.

These depictions present the Wandjina as majestic and strange creatures, usually painted against white backgrounds. Their faces are encircled in an oval band with outward radiating lines, reminiscent of a space faring humanoid’s helmet. They are always painted with big black eyes, a nose but never with a mouth. In fact, legends say the Wandjina never resorted to speech as they conveyed their will directly inside the mind of their subjects. Telepathic abilities?

The Wandjina paintings of Western Australia aren’t the only ones of their kind. Similar ancient paintings have been found in Indian caves, all over South America and in many regions of Africa.

Do they have a common denominator?

Sibera Doomed? Huge Landslide and Another Giant Crater hit Novokuznetsk!

Is Siberia doomed? In just three weeks, a town in the Novokuznetsk Region has seen a massive, slow moving landslide and yet another giant crater.

On April 1 (not a joke), a dramatic landslide occurred in a Siberian town, swallowing up roads and a railway, uprooting trees and destroying power lines. Thankfully, the disaster happened at a turtle’s pace and nobody was hurt.

100,000 Galaxies examined for Signs of Advanced Alien Life,  50 of them show promise!

100,000 Galaxies examined for Signs of Advanced Alien Life,  50 of them show promise!

• Our follow-up studies of those galaxies may reveal if the origin of their radiation results from natural astronomical processes, or if it could indicate the presence of a highly advanced civilization.”—Roger Griffith, Penn State College of Science

Using NASA’s WISE satellite, scientists from the Pennsylvania State Universityexamined more than 100,000 galaxies, scouring them for telltale signs of advanced alien civilizations. As expected, they found no obvious evidence but they did manage to isolate 50 galaxies that show promise.

Since its launch in December of 2009, the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) space telescope has collected data from more than 100 million objects.

A lot of ground to cover

Out of that huge collection, Roger Griffith, the lead researcher of the study, selected 100,000 images of galaxies that he believed were the most interesting. Griffith and his colleagues focused on the heat signature of these galaxies, or how much infrared radiation they emitted.

Jason Wright, assistant professor of astronomy and astrophysics at Penn State explains:

• The idea behind our research is that, if an entire galaxy had been colonized  by an advanced spacefaring civilization, the energy produced by that civilization’s technologies would be detectable in mid-infrared [MIR] wavelengths — exactly the radiation that the WISE satellite was designed to detect for other astronomical purposes.”

The idea that advanced extraterrestrial civilizations could be spotted through their heat signature is not new. A little history, for those who are interested:

In 1960, theoretical physicist Freeman Dyson hypothesized that such a civilization could be detected by looking at their energy consumption. The more advanced they became, the more energy they would use. Upon passing a certain technological threshold, the aliens would need to look outside their planet for a reliable energy source.

As a result, they would harness the energy of their star (or stars) by surrounding it with a solar energy collector known as a Dyson sphere. If such an energy trap would be constructed around a star, it would show up as an anomaly in an infrared wavelength photo.

Dyson Sphere encompassing a single star

In 1964, Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev took things a little further by establishing a scale for advanced alien civilizations, based on how much energy they used. A Type 1 civilization would use all available resources on its home planet. A Type 2 civilization would have higher energy demands and therefore harness the energy of its star while a Type 3 civilization would use so much energy it would require the total output of their entire galaxy.

Pertaining to the Kardashev scale, humans are expected to reach Type 1 status in 100 to 200 years.

The researchers at Penn State University focused on finding signs of Type 2 – Type 3 alien civilizations, due to the vast number of surveyed galaxies and current technological limitations.

Out of the 100,000 potential candidates, the scientists isolated 50 galaxies that showed “unusually high levels of mid-infrared radiation.” All of them show signs that at least 50% of their starlight is being reprocessed into MIR. Further studies will show whether this discrepancy stems from “natural astronomical processes, or if it could indicate the presence of a highly advanced civilization.”

However exciting this research might sound, we have to address an important question: Would we be able to detect such an advanced civilization, if it even exists? As Arthur C. Clarke once famously said, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Or, as science fiction author Karl Schroader put it, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable fromnature.”

Freeman Dyson himself—now 91 years of age but still interested in the secrets of the deep space—was contacted by Scientific American in order to discuss the study’s findings.

• Our imaginings about the way that aliens might make themselves detectable are always like stories of black cats in a dark room,” he said. “If there are any real aliens, they are likely to behave in ways that we never imagined. The WISE result shows that the aliens did not follow one particular path. That is good to know. But it still leaves a huge variety of other paths open. The failure of one guess does not mean that we should stop looking for aliens.”

Well put, Mr. Dyson!

What about you? Do you share his optimism? Let us know in the comments!

Astronomers Amazing Alien Craft Ufo Captured On Film

(Before It's News)

ASTRONOMERS AMAZING ALIEN UFO CRAFT CAPTURED ON FILM

 A Hastings man has sought the opinion of the Observer’s resident UFO expert after capturing an unexplained phenomenon on camera.  Alan Harding visited our Woods House office today (Tuesday, April 21) to ask Malcolm Robinson to look over a series of pictures captured on his camera which appear to show a UFO.  Harding, from Hastings, captured the picture while photographing the moons of Jupiter.  Mr Harding set up his camera outside his Harold Road home to capture the alignment of the moons of Jupiter on the night of the solar eclipse on March 18.  However, when he viewed the images he spotted a bright object which appeared to move around the sky over the space of 12 minutes. “I didn’t notice it until I emphasized the images otherwise I would have stayed up all night,” he said.  After taking the images to several observatories he decided to seek the advice of Mr Robinson.  Although his day job is selling adverts for the Observer series, Mr Robinson is a leading expert on UFOs and has just finished filming for a new Channel 5 documentary.  Speaking about Mr Harding’s images, he said: “My initial thought was that it may be lens flare – due to the nature of the bright planets sometimes there is flare to the left or the right.  “However, the gentleman assures me that it was not that and it certainly doesn’t look like that.  “My second thought was that something has flown into the camera shot like a gull but again, I don’t think it is that.”  Mr Robinson explained the vast majority of images turn out to be easily explained.  Of the remaining five percent, three per cent is military or other advanced technology and one per cent is an new atmospheric phenomenon.  “The one per cent that remains, the fly in the ointment, that is what keeps scientists and ufologists the world over interested in the subject,” he said.  “It is great to have a local man coming up with not just a strange story but some great images.”  Mr Harding said: “I take millions of images, I’m a technological person and I know all the issues you get with lens.  “I have got no explanation for it.”
 
KENS NOTE:  Digital cameras can see what our eyes cannot see.  I personally receive many lens flair photos every day because people thing they have captured a UFO. Lens flair usually happens when someone takes a photo into or near the sun.  The incoming light bounces off the lens and creates this effect.  This is not the case in many instances though.  Debunkers use this excuse for strange objects in peoples photos.  Not all strange images on a photo is lens flair.  Below is an easy explanation.
Cameras can see many things that the human eye cannot. It doesn’t mean that because this is so, it is automatically paranormal. The word paranormal though at the same time means “above the normal” which is something we have yet to completely understand.Thermal Imaging Cameras are used to help provide evidence of the paranormal field by detecting energy (heat) which the human eye may not be able to see. Another theory of spirits is that since they may contain energy that they will in return have heat. Cold spots is another theory that suggests that these spirits absorb energy around them to manifest themselves which in turn they create a cold spot.
Infrared Cameras are used in ghost hunting to view spirits that sometimes cannot be seen with the human eye. The theory is that spirits are more easier seen through IR light rather then UV light. Another theory states that spirits move more quickly through our dimension and because of this a high speed object would be easier to film using a high frequency short wave source and that composition of spirits may be more sensitive to reflecting IR light.
Full Spectrum Camera is a device used to pick up visible and near infrared light. This device can pick up non-visible ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation. Once the camera is sensitive to the full-spectrum, external filters can be used to selectively filter portions of the UV, visible and infrared to achieve various effects. These cameras are used in Ghost Hunting, photography, archeological findings and even with the police to help find forensic evidence.
Digital Cameras can be a very useful device which is not costly and you get instant satisfaction unlike with a film camera where you must wait to get it developed. Digital cameras have been known to pick up ghosts and spirits which are sometimes not seen with the human eye and sometimes they are. There are many digital cameras to choose from these days at all price ranges.
35mm Film Cameras can be useful in filming spirits since some theories suggest that because this method involves using a chemical process to create the pictures it may provide better results which you may not get by using a digital camera and that using black and white film you may see images that may not show up on the most expensive digital cameras. ..

Huge Eruption at Calbuco Volcano, Chile, UFOs Caught Going Into Plume (Video)

(Before It's News)

The Cabulco volcano in Chile has erupted briefly for the first time in more than 40 years, leading to the evacuation of more than two-thousand residents. Local reports say people are rushing to fill up gas tanks and buy food.

Calbuco is a stratovolcano in southern Chile, located southeast of Llanquihue Lake and northwest of Chapo Lake, in the Los Lagos Region. The volcano and the surrounding area are protected within Llanquihue National Reserve.

It is known that UFOs have been reported near volcanoes in recent years, especially near active volcanoes.

The following videos show once again that UFOs are interested in active volcanoes. During the eruption of the Calbuco volcano a formation of UFOs/Orbs was captured on video going into the plume. In the next video Dabh00777 shows the moment the UFOs/Orbs fly into the ash cloud.

  

You can catch the UFO/Orb Objects at the 11 second Mark of the original video below.

California witness describes hovering sphere UFO changing size

(Before It's News)

The witness first saw the sphere-shaped object just before 9 p.m. on April 15, 2015. Pictured: Indio, CA. (Credit: Google)

openminds.tv

A California witness at Indio reported watching a yellow-white sphere that increased and decreased in size by 50 percent before ascending straight up into the night sky, according to testimony in Case 64711 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was in his backyard with the family dog about 8:53 p.m. on April 15, 2015, when the object was first seen.

“At approximately 82 degrees north I saw movement of a yellow-white object with movement in a southward direction,” the witness stated. “The object was 10 degrees off of true north to the west.”

The witness described the object’s movements.

“The object then stopped and blossomed by 50 percent or greater with color changes to greenish-yellow for about one to two seconds. The object then diminished to its original size in the stationary location about 87/88 degrees north.”

The object appeared to increase in size by about 50 percent and then decrease in size by 50 percent. Pictured: Indio, CA. (Credit: Google)

And then the witness watched the object move away.

“The object then ascended straight upward until it could no longer be seen by the naked eye. It almost reminded me of seeing something powering up and then immediately ascending upon the completion of doing so. This observation lasted 5 to 6 seconds, yet was definitely an unusual activity over all.”

The witness has lived in the area for years and frequently sky watches.

“I scan the night sky as I have for many years and am very familiar with the general location of stars and visible planets as I have lived in the Coachella Valley since 1974. This object had immediately captured my attention. I was astonished by the brief yet captivating event. I am a trained and retired Investigator and this observation was out of the ordinary altogether. To say I was excited would be mildly explanatory at the least.”

The witness could not identify the object.

“This object was not a general aircraft or a meteor. We have three airports within a 20- mile radius and I am very familiar with air-flight within the region. I have on two occasions spent time in Sedona, Arizona, observing the night skies with Cat III night vision equipment. I have observed what I believe to be IGC (Intelligently Guided Craft) and the sighting on April 15, 2015, was very similar in the manner of previous observations of objects blossoming and moving in very similar fashion as I have observed in the past. I am even tempered, sober and feel compelled to report this observation. This definitely was impactful to myself as I believe this observation was extraordinary in time, location and observable activity.”

Indio is a city in Riverside County, California, population 76,036.

The object appeared to hover in place before shooting off into the night sky. Pictured: Indio, CA. (Credit: Google)

California is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 1.60 sightings per million population based on MUFON February 2015 statistics. California received a total of 61 UFO reports in March.

2 Large UFO Orbs Seen Near Calbuco Volcano During Eruption In Chile'.

Chile's Calbuco volcano erupted for the first time in over 42 years on Wednesday, creating a remarkable scene of smoke plumes and ash shooting into the sky. A second eruption Wednesday night blasted red-hot rocks skyward and produced an extraordinary display of volcanic lightning.

The eruption forced authorities to evacuate 1,500 residents of Ensenada, a nearby town, as well as two smaller communities.

A high alert was issued by the National Mining and Geology Service, preventing access to the area around the volcano. Calbuco is also near the cities of Puerto Varas and Puerto Montt, some 600 miles south of the Chilean capital, Santiago.

Parts of Argentina reported heavy ash falling after the eruption.
