Lost Underwater ‘City’ Revealed as Natural Geological Formation

Disc and doughnut-shaped structures appeared to be architectural remnants of a city, but scientific analysis showed the formations to actually be a naturally occurring geological phenomenon.

What was thought to be an underwater, lost city is actually a naturally occurring geological phenomenon.

Pipe-like, disc and doughnut-shaped structures discovered by underwater divers near the island of Zakynthos, Greece, were originally believed to be ruins of an ancient city, such as remnants of paved floors, courtyards and columns.

Now researchers have found that the "ruins" are in fact geological formations, the results of a natural phenomenon that took place in the Pliocene epoch, up to 5 million years ago. [See Photos of the 'Lost City' Geological Formations]

Archaeologists with the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities of Greece, a department within the Greek Ministry of Culture specializing in marine archaeology, examined the site; they found no further evidence that this was indeed an ancient civilization. Suspecting a geological explanation, the Greek Ministry brought in researchers from the University of East Anglia and the University of Athens to investigate the oddly shaped structures.

"The site was discovered by snorkelers and first thought to be an ancient city port, lost to the sea," lead study author Julian Andrews, a professor at UEA's School of Environmental Sciences, said in a statement.

"There were what superficially looked like circular column bases and paved floors but, mysteriously, no other signs of life — such as pottery."

Using microscopy, X-ray techniques and chemical analyses, the researchers studied the mineral content of the underwater formations. These analyses showed that the "ruins" are likely the fossilized remains of a natural plumbing system, located beneath the seafloor, for ancient hydrocarbon seeps. Here, methane and other hydrocarbons escape from the seafloor into the water above.

While beneath the seafloor, microbes in the sediment would have used the carbon in methane as fuel, forming a natural cement around the structures. The resulting structures are known to geologists as concretion.

Erosion then exposed the underground structures to the bustling ecosystem in the modern, shallow subtidal zone, where the structures were "bored and encrusted by modern marine organisms," Andrews and colleagues wrote in the study, which appeared today (June 2) in the journal Marine and Petroleum Geology.

"The disk and doughnut morphology … is typical of mineralization at hydrocarbon seeps — seen both in modern seafloor and paleo settings," though such formations "looked a bit like circular column bases," Andrews said. "We found that the linear distribution of these doughnut-shaped concretions is likely the result of a subsurface fault which has not fully ruptured the surface of the seabed. The fault allowed gases, particularly methane, to escape from depth."

Though the site is not in fact an ancient, underwater city, the discovery near Zakynthos is rather uncommon geologically, Andrews said. The phenomenon is rare in shallow waters, as most similar formations can be located hundreds or thousands of meters deep underwater, he said.

Does the Universe Have an Edge?

The globular cluster NGC 6397 (seen in this Hubble Space Telescope image), located about 7,200 light-years away, is estimated to be 13.5 billion years old; that makes the cluster among the first objects of the galaxy to form after the Big Bang.

Scientists now know the universe is expanding, at an ever-increasing rate. So if it's ballooning, what is it growing into? In other words, what is beyond the known universe?

Defining this "beyond the universe" would imply that the universe has an edge. And that's where things get tricky, because scientists aren't certain if such a drop-off exists.

The answer depends on how one views the question.

Cliff-hanger

One form of the question asks, "Could you go somewhere that you could look 'beyond' the universe," the way one might peer beyond a cliff edge or look out a window to see the outside of a building? The answer to that query is "probably not."

One reason involves the "cosmological principle," said Robert McNees, an associate professor of physics at Loyola University Chicago. The cosmological principle states that the distribution of matter in any part of the universe looks roughly the same as in any other part, regardless what direction you look in; in scientists' terms, the universe is isotropic.

The cosmological principle is, in part, a consequence of the idea that the laws of physics are the same everywhere. "There's lots of local variation — stars, galaxies, clusters, etc. — but averaged over big chunks of space, no place is really that different than anywhere else," McNees told Live Science in an email

The implication though, is that there is no "edge"; there is no place to go where the universe just ends and one could look in some direction and see what's beyond it.

One analogy often used to describe this edgeless universe is the surface of a balloon. An ant on such a surface can walk in any direction and it would look like the surface was "unbounded" — that is, the ant might come back to where it started but there would be no end to the journey. So even though the surface of a balloon is a finite number of square units, there's no edge to it, no boundary (since you can go forever in any one direction). In addition, there's no "center," so there's no preferred point on the balloon's spherical surface.

The universe is a three-dimensional version of the balloon's skin.

Ballooning universe

But how can the universe be expanding if there is no end or edge to it?

Using the balloon analogy again, if one were to add more air to the balloon, the ant would observe other things on the balloon's surface getting farther away. And the greater the distance between the ant and some object, the faster that object would be receding. But no matter where the ant skittered, the speed at which those objects were receding would follow the same relations — if the ant came up with an equation describing how fast the farthest objects were receding, it would work the same way anywhere on the balloon's surface.

However, balloons, when blown up, are expanding into a three-dimensional space. The problem is that this doesn't apply to the universe. By definition, the universe contains everything, so there is no "outside." Physicist Stephen Hawking has often said that the whole question makes no sense, because if the universe came from nothing and brought everything into existence, then asking what lies beyond the universe is like asking what is north of the North Pole. [The Big Bang to Civilization: 10 Amazing Origin Events]

Dr. Katie Mack, a theoretical astrophysicist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, told Live Science that it might be more useful to think of the universe as getting less dense, rather than expanding. That is, the concentration of matter in the universe is decreasing as the universe expands, she said.

That's because galaxies aren't moving away from each other through space — it's space itself that is getting bigger. So any aliens in the galaxies that humans see would all come to the same conclusion that Earthlings do: Everything else is moving away in all directions, and the local galaxy is at rest.

Because space is expanding, it's possible for the galaxies to appear as if they are moving faster than light, without violating relativity — which says that nothing can go faster than light in a vacuum. The actual size of the observable universe is 46 billion light-years in any direction, even though the universe began only 13.8 billion years ago, Mack said. But that still sets a limit on the size of the universe humans can see, called the observable universe. Anything outside of that radius of 46 billion light-years is not visible to Earthlings, and it never will be. That's because the distances between objects in the universe keep getting bigger at a rate that's faster than the light beams can get to Earth.

And on top of that, the rate of expansion has not been uniform. For a brief fraction of a second after the Big Bang, there was a period of accelerated expansion called inflation, during which the universe grew at a much faster pace than it is growing now. Whole regions of space will never be observable from Earth for that reason. Mack noted that assuming inflation happened, the universe is actually 10²³ times bigger than the 46 billion light-years humans can see. So if there is an edge to the universe, it's so far away Earthlings can't see it, and never will. [Big Bang, Deflated? Universe May Have Had No Beginning]

An infinite space?

Meanwhile, there's the issue of whether the universe is infinite in space to begin with, which Mack said is still an open question. Or, the universe might wrap around itself in a higher dimension in the same way that the 2D surface of a sphere wraps around itself in three dimensions, she said.

An additional factor is whether the universe popped into existence out of nothing at all, via small fluctuations in a vacuum, or, as Hawking and James Hartle proposed, time and space become interchangeable close to the beginning. If either one is the case, then asking what came before the universe and what is outside of it makes no sense.

Mack said there are ongoing attempts to resolve the question of whether the universe is like a sphere, curving back on itself so that if you travel in one direction you eventually return to your starting point.

"We look for repeated spots in the sky," she said. "That's what people look for when seeking evidence for the universe being finite. … Our space could be a 3D space embedded in a four-dimensional space." (The universe has four dimensions that humans interact with, three of space and one of time, but this would imply there is an additional, fourth spatial dimension.)

If astronomers found two places on opposite sides of the sky that were exactly the same, that would be a strong indication that the universe is curved in that way. There are no guarantees, though. While some cosmological theories such as string theory posit higher dimensions, most of those would be "rolled up" and small, whereas a curved universe's "extra" space dimension would have to be large.  

All of this means that if there's an end to the universe, humans might well never be able to see it, and there is the real possibility that the universe is shaped so that it can't have a boundary to begin with.

NASA’s Curiosity Rover Beams Back Photos of Possible Astronaut Found on Mars

Recent photos beamed back by NASA’s Curiosity rover of a shadowy figure that’s strongly resembling an astronaut may prove that intelligent lifeforms are already operating on the surface of Mars.

---

 

There are still countless mysteries on our planet waiting to be unraveled. When it comes to other alien worlds such as Mars, the matter heightens to a staggering proportion, considering that all information originating from this not-so-far-away place is only revealed by a few space agencies.

 

Are we able to draw clear conclusions based on only what they serve us? And even more, can we truly affirm that no human beings have set foot on the Red Planet so far?

 

To better understand the above questions, I’ll present you with a pile of peculiar photos captured during Curiosity’s mission, where an alleged shadow of an astronaut can be observed just near the rover.

 

 

Although the shadowy figure can be interpreted in many ways, there’s no denial that it strongly resembles an astronaut that’s taking care of technical issues encountered by the earthly rover.

 

Its defined shape is noticed not in one, but in four photos taken over a period of 45 minutes. It constantly changes position, and the last two pictures expose it while bent over the back panel. So can this hypothesis of an astronauts taking care of our rover have any solid background?

 

 

According to Scott C. Waring from ufosightingsdaily, this is not the only case when an unusual shadow slips into an official picture. A few years ago, a man stumbled across another similar shadow of a presumed astronaut equipped with an oxygen tank that appears to be fixing the rover.

 

Can these two appearances be considered a case of pareidolia – a psychological phenomenon that links something inexistent to a familiar pattern? Or rather a true fact that our minds refuse to acknowledge because of the social standards we’re all accustomed to?

 

The UFO community finds this catch to be clear evidence that something is wrong with this entire Martian mission, if it’s really Mars we’re talking about. Scott Waring who posted this amazing discovery on his blog has an interesting point of view on this:

•  “I was checking out the newest Curiosity rover photos on the NASA site and found four of them with the shadow of an astronaut in spacesuit that appears to be fixing the rover. This just goes to show the public that the rover is being maintained by humans on Mars, and that there are other spacecraft kept secret from the public that carry a person to Mars in just a few minutes.”

He added another remark that’s a bit unrealistic, but worth the mention:

• “I got a Taiwanese friend who works at NASA right now. He said a few years ago that he saw a blue/green wheel spacecraft that hovers like a turning wheel and can carry an astronaut at about 1/20  the speed of light. That’s fast, and would get you to the moon in about 30 seconds.”

Such a scenario is not that hard to imagine considering the technological advancement in recent years (not to mention the hidden toys of the military), but I think that it’s highly unlikely because, even if we could achieve such speeds, the human body will be unable to withstand the atmospheric pressure.

 

Whatever the case, the shadowy figure found in close vicinity to Curiosity is sure to raise a lot of question marks.

 

 

Are there already astronauts on the Red Planet operating in secrecy for NASA and other space agencies? Or maybe we have already designed a form of artificially intelligent robot that’s helping maintain the rovers. Mars is clearly the perfect testing ground for such a machinery.

 

Other UFO enthusiasts have once again proposed the idea of Curiosity rover being somewhere on Devon Island, Canada, instead of Mars. This is a reasonable point of view that would explain the presence of human beings (or just beings) in spacesuits.

 

However, these remain only speculations based on our disbelief in governmental institutions, but there’s a good chance for this to be more than just a conspiracy theory.

Are You Ready to Meet them?

Islands of the Giants

The three small islands of Malta, Gozo and Comino float in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, south of Sicily and east of the Tunesian coastline.

 

Though small, their history dates back thousands of years – and continues to throw a magical spell on many visitors. And we need to ask whether the modern tourists are the last in a series of sun worshippers that came to these islands.

 

Various megalithic monuments are located on Malta, dated at approx. 4000 BC.

 

What is important is that the buildings are unique in style and that their builders – as is so often the case – are unknown.

 

Malta is by far the biggest of the three islands: it measures 40 km in length and is 20 km wide. The eastern part of the island has the megalithic monuments of Tarxien, Hagar Qim and Mnajdra. The most northern is Tarxien, a vast temple complex that has become surrounded by a modern town. Next to the old temple rises a modern church, as if underlining that what was once sacred, still is.

 

The megalithic “church” consists out of a series of oval-shaped “chapels” – typical for the Maltese temple structure.

 

The temple of Tarxien is unique as it holds its own spring. Archaeological finds in the form of vessels suggest that water must have played an important role on this site – and it is more likely that the role of the spring and its water was spiritual, rather than economic.

 

 

Better known is the subterranean chamber complex nearby: the famous Hypogeum, dating from the 4th and 3rd millennium BC. It is here that the remains of no less than 7000 people were discovered. Archaeologists believe that both Mnajdra and the Hypogeum should be considered as one whole, but as the purpose they served, that remains an open question. Was the Hypogeum a temple of the dead, a cemetery? Certain finds inside do suggest that rituals were held inside the complex.

 

The sites are located in the middle of a modern town, which makes it difficult to imagine the temples in a more original setting. But that setting can be perceived in the southern parts of Malta.

 

On a slope near the coastline are the temples of Hagar Qim and Mnajdra.

 

Both temples are close to each, a few hundred meters apart. Again, it suggests that both temples were part of one complex. When the complex is approached from the direction of Tarxien, the visitor finds himself in a valley that leads to the sea. It is there that the famous “Blue Grotto” can be found, an impressive display of nature that for modern tourists is still considered to be a “must see”.

 

It is perhaps this natural wonder that might explain the presence nearby of the temple complex, as it is located at a mere few hundred meters.

 

Hagar Qim is the most impressive of all Maltese monuments. The finesse that was used to join the stones can be compared with the precision employed in the Valley Temple, next to the Sphinx, at Gizeh (Egypt), where the builders equally carved out massive stones and placed them together as if it was the easiest job in the world.

 

But it is only the massive size of the stones that allows for such a comparison. Other than that, both sites have their own unique design and decoration. Still, as we know, that the Hagar Qim monument predates the Valley Temple with many centuries… could this Maltese knowledge of working with giant stones have made it into Egypt?

 

The small island of Gozo also has a megalithic temple: Ggantija. The name is derived from local folklore, which says that only giants (gigantes) would have been able to construct such a complex. Its folklore is just a modern remain of the legendary importance the Greeks had instilled on the island.

 

In Greek mythology, Gozo was the island where the nymph Calypso held Odysseus imprisoned for no less than 7 years. Her cave is situated near the temple, with the cave offering one of the most stunning view of the most famous sandy beach of the island.

 

If Odysseus was indeed imprisoned here, the view from his prison window was excellent.

 

 

The temple of Ggantija contains – according to UNESCO – the largest free standing stone in the world.

 

In itself, this is not that impressive, as there are larger stones elsewhere – they are just not free standing. Nevertheless, Ggantija is yet another impressive temple. What is very intriguing is that north of the temple itself, a stone circle can be found – showing that “classic megalithic monuments” were also constructed on the island.

 

It is here that archaeologist, in 1987, uncovered human skeletons. The Xaghra stone circle furthermore has a subterranean complex of natural caves, which seem to have been used as a cemetery – thus apparently identifying this location as a Gozo counterpart of the Hypogeum on Malta’s mainland.

 

The presence of a temple connected with a subterranean cemetery seems to hint at rituals to do with the dead. Perhaps the temples – as was popular elsewhere – might also have been used by priests, employed to contact the ancestors.

 

As there are no written traditions, at present, it is important to be more prudent and thus conclude that perhaps the temples and underground complexes were merely used for funerary rituals.

 

The megalithic monuments no longer have a roof, but drawings that date from previous centuries and small models that were left by the megalithic builders themselves reveal that the temples once were roofed. If the roof was made from stone, then it is a major enigma where they disappeared to.

 

Perhaps it is more like that other material was therefore used.

 

Still, some archaeologists have concluded that stone would have been the preferred material for the roof – as such a roof would have been virtually impossible to build, they have concluded the temples never had a roof. Still, if we assume that the temples did have a roof – made of stone – than these structures would have closely resembled caves: artificial caves, made to resemble the natural caves?

 

Many temples are decorated with spirals, and the temples have oval shaped chapels. Certain temples have three ovals, though most have seven. Most temples also contained statues, though most have been partially destroyed – either by the passing of time, or by a deliberate act of destruction at some point in the past. Some of the statues seem to be of a giant woman, with giant breasts, thighs and arms.

 

Were they statues of the Mother Goddess?

 

Many archaeologists believe this is indeed the case, though certainty should not be confused with belief in such cases.

 

Though many archaeological discoveries have occurred in the last century, certain questions remain open: who were the people that build these temples? Where did they come from?

 

Apart from the temple, there are also the enigmatic “cart ruts”, which can be found in certain sections of the island. What purpose they served is unknown, but some speculate that they may have been markings in the rocky surface which would allow cows or bulls to follow the grooves, “guided” as it were by a mechanism that connected them to the ruts.

 

This theory has become a hot topic of debate, even though near one car rut, a wheel, made from lava stone, was discovered. Perhaps they had an astronomical purpose, but if so, it is highly improbable that this can ever be proven. At present, the most likely possibility is that they will remain a mystery… though a major discovery seems to be made approximately every decade, so one will never know…

 

Malta is an island; the closest land – Sicily – is invisible from its shores. Was Malta on par with Crete, as a site of a very ancient culture? There are certain parallels between the two islands. First of all, though both islands have their unique style, the general layout is largely identical: the presence of temples is in the eastern second of the island, close to the sea, and mostly in the northern and southern part (of that eastern section). They are – furthermore – temples: buildings.

 

At the same time, they are separated by 2000 years. But as on Crete, it is clear that there is an interrelationship with caves and temple complexes – though the caves of Malta could never be found at the altitudes that some of the Cretan mountains rise to. Finally, some of the artifacts recovered from the sites are identical to artifacts recovered at e.g. Knossos, specifically the vessel.

 

Though such comparisons can be made, it does not explain why Malta was chosen, and not Sicily. Certain demographic conditions might have already existed so many millennia ago that did not allow these people to build there – but perhaps there is a reason why Malta was specifically chosen.

 

 

Malta has a unique climate: an incredible amount of sunshine, a statistic it shares with e.g. Carnac in France, where other major monuments are found. Furthermore, the Carnac structures were constructed at roughly the same time as the monuments of Malta. Were the people of Malta solar worshippers?

 

The possibility that the religion of the Maltese temple builders was sun worship seems likely, particularly when certain information, identified by Joseph Ellul, is taken into account. Ellul’s father was the caretaker of the Hagar Qim complex – a privileged position to learn much about the complex and be confronted with a wide variety of visitors, each giving their insights.

 

As a result, Ellul was able to identify that certain chapels of the complex were carefully orientated towards the sunrise and sunset of the equinoxes and solstices (e.g. December 21 and June 21). The moon was also an important phenomenon, specifically its 19 year Metonic period. Certain doors “frame” the full moon at the start of this cycle, which also shows that the planning of these complexes must have taken many decades.

 

Perhaps it is indeed the fact that Malta is an island which has set it apart by the temple builders. Many ancient religions speak of an island, where the sun god had created the world.

 

 

In Egypt, this was the god Atum, who masturbated the world in existence. In the French town of Carnac, we find an artificial hill, on top of which can be found specifically phallic-like standing stones. We note that the Mother Goddess statues of Malta might perhaps be more displays of fertility – and hence creation: pregnancy, when breasts become larger than they normally are.

 

The Maltese builders did not leave us any written documents. The quest for the final answer continues. But it is clear that Malta is no longer the enigma that it once was. It has certain unique characteristics, but also some features that can be found elsewhere.

 

If the voices of the old giants could speak…

 

 

An island near the coastline of the Hagar Qim: does it feature in the legends of an island of creation?

Declassified Documents Reveal Project Horizon: The Lunar Outpost of the US Army

Declassified documents reveal Project Horizon 1959: Plans of the United States Army to build a manned lunar outpost.

---

 

• “The establishment of a manned base of operations on the moon has tremendous military and scientific potential. Because invaluable scientific, military, and political prestige will come to the nation that first establishes a lunar base, it is imperative that the United States be first.“ (Source)

It isn’t a secret that Earth’s moon has been considered as a critical strategic celestial body. Looking back at history, we will find that numerous countries had planned ‘scientific’ outposts on its surface. However, there are certain documents that have only recently revealed militarization projects of the moon. There is a requirement for a manned military outpost on the moon. The lunar outpost is required to develop and protect potential United States interests on the moon; to develop techniques in moon-based surveillance of the earth and space, in communications relay, and in operations on the surface of the moon; to serve as a base for exploration of the moon, for further exploration into space and for military operations on the moon if required; and to support scientific investigations on the moon. (Source)

 

On June 9, 1959, the United States Government decided that the construction of a lunar outpost is of great importance to the country. Project Horizon: The establishment of a Lunar Outpost was created in response to growing interest of other nations, like the Soviet Union in the militarization and exploration of the moon. However, its primary goal was to protect potential United States interests on the lunar surface.

 

 

During 1959, the Space Race was adopting a whole new level. Two years after the initial proposal of Project Horizon, the first Apollo mission would launch, on October 27, 1961, creating a new chapter in the history of mankind. However, countries around the globe –primarly the US and the Soviet Union—werent only planning traveling to the moon and placing astronauts into orbit around the planet, their plans were way ahead of time, and they had numerous projects already lined up that would have kickstarted the militarization of our solar system.

 

The rapid advances in propulsion, electronics and space medicine and other astronautical sciences in the 1950’s would have allowed the successful construction of a military outpost on the moon.

 

“To be second to the Soviet Union in establishing an outpost on the moon would be disastrous to our nation’s prestige and in turn to our democratic philosophy. Although it is contrary to United States policy, the Soviet Union in establishing the first permanent base may claim the moon or critical areas thereof for its own.“ (Source)

 

 

The outpost was planned to be of sufficient size in order to contain sufficient equipment that would later be used in the militarization and exploration of the moon. The military outpost was designed in order to allow the survival and moderate, constructive activity of ONE person, and 10-20 on a sustained basis.

 

During planning, researchers considered that the outpost needed to be designed for expansion facilities, supply and operation of personnel in order to maintain the maximum extension of sustained occupancy. The futuristic project of 1959 was planned to be self-sufficient for as long as possible without any additional support from Earth.

 

 

However, not only was Project Horizon the first step of lunar militarization, the base was designed so it could sever as a permanent manned installation on the moon, which eventually would allow the investigation of scientific, commercial and military potential on the lunar surface.

 

The lunar outpost was intended to serve as an observation post which would facilitate –in the near future—travel between Earth, the moon and eventual exploration of our solar system and outer space.

 

Purpose of the Lunar Outpost (Source)

 

The establishment of a manned US outpost on the moon will:

• Demonstrate the United States scientific leadership in outer space
• Support scientific explorations and investigations.
• Extend and improve space reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities and control of space.
• Extend and improve communications and serve as a communications relay station.
• Provide a basic and supporting research laboratory for space research and development activity.
• Develop a stable, low-gravity outpost for use as a launch site for deep space exploration.
• Provide an opportunity for scientific exploration and development of a space mapping and survey system.
• Provide an emergency staging area, rescue capability or navigational aid for other space activity.

 

Project Horizon included a ‘sophisticated’ defense system that would be incorporated into the lunar outpost. The base would be defended against Soviet overland attack by man-fired weapons

•  Unguided Davy Crockett rockets with low-yield nuclear warheads
• Conventional Claymore mines modified to puncture pressure suits

 

 

Take in count that all of this was possible in 1959. Over half a century later, with the numerous technological advancements, just imagine what we are capable of.

Known UFO Bases of the Solomon Islands

To my knowledge, this maybe the first time that somebody is telling the rest of the world about subterranean UFO Bases he has found. I suppose there is a first time for everything.

---

 

On the map further up this report is a reference to the “Mount Dragon UFO Base” entrance. This is definitely a current UFO Base used by Aliens. The entrance to this subterranean Base is a waterfall-lake about 2,500 feet high on the western side of a 5-kilometre long valley, and is approximately 8-kilometres from the coast.

 

I spent several months living in a village called “Chapuru”, of Cape Esperance, which is north on the coast from the “Subterranean Terrestrial UFO Base” (ST’s new word), and in this area, the Alien activity from this Base is seen of regularly, meaning like nearly every night. During the time I lived at this village, I began to lose count of these UFO sightings at around 60 times, but I do remember estimating that it would be 100 by now.

 

The reason why I eventually called this unnamed mountain UFO Base entrance “Mt. Dragon” is because the Guadalcanal people who live in this area call these flying ‘balls-of-light’ UFOs, “Dragon Snakes”.

 

To the people of Northwest Guadalcanal, as they have been observing these “Dragon Snakes” for well over a century, and most probably much longer, although they fear them because people have been killed, injured, or have gone missing due of them, they generally give them no more of a second thought unless in close proximity, as they can be found flying around in the area nearly every night.

 

As an example of this accepted part of life, about a kilometer East from “Chapuru”, the village I once lived, the current Prime Minister of the Solomon Islands, Prime Minister “Sir Alan Kemakeza’s” main residence is found, and he has seen these UFOs many more times than I have. “Ezekiel Alebua”, a once Prime Minister, the previous Guadalcanal Premier, and Guadalcanal Minister again, also knows of the Waterfall Lake UFO Base entrance.

 

You can ask anyone from Northwest Guadalcanal about their UFOs, and I mean anyone about them and they will tell you heaps, as they are seen of virtually every night and have been for well over a century.

 

That is if the American led Australian Solomon Islands Government allows Tourism to continue in the Solomon Islands and doesn’t place restricted no go zones everywhere.

 

As these sightings did not always become second nature to me, after some extensive investigation to find out where these UFOs go when they were not flying around, over a six-day period there and back, myself and another Guadalcanal friend made an arduous trip to this UFO Base, and from a hidden position in the nearby mountains above it, was when we first discovered that there was more than one “UFO/Dragon Snake” using this place as one of their residence in the Solomon Islands.

 

This Alien Base is still there today. Apart from all the people of the area, the best person to confirm this Base and its position is “Ezekiel Alebua”. Also, may I say, the current Solomon Island’s Prime Minister, “Sir Allan Kemakeza”, who I know, being from Guadalcanal, knows all about the Giant race existing on his Island, but was unaware of the real reasons why the Australian Prime Minister after many years all of a sudden had a change of heart and started offering assistance with a military interdiction immediately after he got back from visiting the American President.

 

You cannot tell me that the Americans, British and Australians do not know of these UFO Bases, because I have overwhelming proof that they do. The current ‘Solomon Islands Interdiction’ by the American led Australian Multinational Forces has been named, “Operation Helpem Friend”. No More! Hemi “Operation Containem, and Bringem Come Oil and Gas”.

 

Incidentally, it was during my adventurous stay at this village that I first began to learn about the Giants of Guadalcanal also.

 

 

On the map above is shown the entrances of the UFO Base located in the Central East Coast of Malaita that I know of, and the location of the ‘Ramo mountain remanence’ mentioned.

 

The question mark represents:

 

• “I know there is some kind of base in that location somewhere too”.

 

Although one pin is missing near the left-hand arrow, I believe that cluster of pins are all entrances that make up one big UFO Base under the Island.

 

Contrary to popular belief, NASA, or whoever that mob was, first made contact with the Aliens at the subterranean UFO Base of Central East Malaita in 1961. No doubt this is one of the ways of how they began to gain what partial secret technology that they have today. Back then; during the height of the ‘Cold War’ in attempts to gain technological advantages, they blackmailed these particular Aliens.

 

This all happened because when the great British Geologist “Mr. Gropher” was doing his few expeditions in the area in-between 1958-1960, he first saw these UFOs and then reported them back to England. In 1961, a Whiteman who claimed himself to be from NASA came to that part of the Island and asked assistance from my wife’s relatives to take him to the UFO subterranean Base entrances, which they did.

 

Requesting privacy, they left him at the desert coast above the UFO Base. This self-claimed NASA guy (or whoever he was) was gone a week, during which somehow he made contact with these Aliens, until he arrived again, when he asked my wife’s relatives once again for further assistance to take him back from where he came. Most of the people of Kwaio and Kwara’ae know of this NASA guy happening.

 

In the map above, you will notice the right-hand red pushpin on the east coast with an arrow pointing at it. This is a 50-meter in diameter ‘bottomless circular reef’ in amongst the surrounding 10-meter deep coral reef and is few miles North of ‘Kwoi Island,’ (which is on the border of the Kwaio and Kwara’ae tribes) and South of Namo’ere’ere of Central East Malaita. “Singalanggu Harbour” is slightly further south.

 

“Balls-of-light” UFOs can be seen going in-and-out of that bottomless circular reef virtually every night. My friends like fishing down this UFO hole during the daytime, because it saves them going out to the danger of the ocean, as lots of big fish like found in the ocean can be found down there.

 

They have let down over hundred 200 meters of 100 lb line and it still hasn’t hit the bottom. I always think of this hole being made by a huge spaceship that hovered above it and shot a huge laser into the crust of the earth.

 

Maybe the Australian minesweeper currently in the Solomon’s could go over this UFO hole to determine for us all how deep it is, that is, if they don’t know already. I mean to say, the minesweeper really does belong to us “Australian” taxpayers, and because we are paying 300 million dollars a year to contain these momentous world scattering discoveries instead of putting it into the much in-need hospitals, dental, and education services, just to name a few, maybe they could do this and let us all what they found out.

 

The left-hand pushpin with the arrow, directly inland from that circular-reef hole UFO Base entrance, about 3-4 miles on the mainland of the Island is a lake of which when the boys are out fishing at night, the UFOs can be seen going in that lake and coming out the circular-reef, or vice-versa. Both entrances are definitely connected. I personally have only seen their activities at the lake in this area.

 

A UFO coming out of this lake at dusk, incinerated my good friend’s Grandfather, and everyone in the area knows about it. These Aliens, for the want of another name, have installed fear in these people for generations, and many people have gone missing, and I think I know where they are. In the Kwaio and Kwara’ae area are three other entrances in their jungle mountains that I know of, where these ‘balls of light’ type UFO vehicles can be seen going in-and-out.

 

It is my belief that all these entrances are not individual Bases, but are all connected making up one big one under the Island. I may be wrong, but I also believe one of the many reasons why they there, is that, for reasons of their own, they have been mining a very rare type of gemstone under this highly mineralized Kimberlite base carrying rock volcanic Island of multitude type gemstones.

 

The rare gemstones of the Alien’s interest that my wife’s relatives possess have a far higher specific gravity than that of diamonds, and a refractive index that when you put the stone in sunlight, you see your mirror image deep in the centre of the stone. Also, holding them to the sun, they are a very deep transparent silvery-blue. For their size, they are noticeably extremely heavy.

 

I once had one of these “E.T. Stones” that was 32.4 caret, which had these characteristics. Ironically enough, the more customary people of this Island call these particular UFOs “Diamond Snakes”, and there are some old folklore stories supporting the Alien’s interest in these unique gemstones.

 

As there are many remanence of the “Ramo civilization” to be found on top of the Island, and “the Aliens” underneath for what appears has been a very long time, there is every chance there is a connection between the two. And that goes for Guadalcanal also.I can only speculate about remote Choiseul, but that wouldn’t surprise me in the least, as I know that they also have quite a lot of Giants, and a lot of UFO traffic over that way too.

 

Nevertheless, if there ever were a place that one could call “UFO Headquarters”, it would have to be Central East Malaita. Mind you, these are only the ones I know of.

 

Goodness knows what other UFO Bases are really in the rest of the Solomon Islands.

Kids tested material from Roswell UFO debris, claims witness

In an interview on YouTube posted by a UFO researcher, a woman claims to have obtained material from the famous alleged crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft near Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. She says she was a child at the time, and she and her friend tested the material before having to return it.

The video was posted on YouTube by UFO researcher Mary Joyce, who runs a website called Sky Ships over Cashiers. Via email, Joyce wrote me that she usually transcribes alleged witness testimony and posts it as a story. However, she felt the witness, who chose to remain anonymous, was so compelling in her retelling that she had to let readers experience her words for themselves.

“The woman we call ‘Jill’ painted such great word pictures, and there was such feeling in the way she told her story that written words couldn’t capture it,” explained Joyce. “So we set up our own YouTube channel just so we could posted it as a video.”

Indeed, this video is the only video on their YouTube channel, and Joyce is right. The way Jill articulates her story makes for a compelling and interesting listen. So much so, we wanted to share the story with our readers as well.

Joyce says she had known Jill for years before Jill shared this story with her, and several years have passed since then, before Jill would allow Joyce to share it. Jill and Joyce seem to assume the metal comes from the Roswell incident, and the descriptions given by Jill in the interview are similar to those described by witnesses who allege to have handle debris from the object that crashed in Roswell in 1947.

In the interview (heard above), Jill says, in 1957 she was about 10 years old, and her father was a pilot with the U.S. Air Force. Jill says her father was off on duty all over the world, but was stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force base.

Her father was friends with the father of a boy named John, whom Jill describes as “kind of like my boyfriend.” John’s father was a Colonel, and worked out of a building on the outskirts of the base. John had told Jill that if you look into the building his father works in, you would not see anything because his office is underground. John said his father had to take an elevator down to his office.

Jill described the Colonel as a stoic individual. He was very serious, and not kid-friendly, like her father. However, she did respect the man very much.

One day, John told Jill he had a surprise for her and showed her a strange metal that Jill remembered to be about 8 inches by 11 inches, similar to a sheet of paper. She said it looked like aluminum, but it was heavier. John told her to stand back. He then wadded up the sheet of metal and threw it at Jill. Before the metal could reach her, it transformed back into a flat sheet.

This feature is similar to a property of the metal described by others who say they handled the Roswell debris. In particular, Dr. Jesse Marcel, Jr., who, as a child, handled debris his father alleges to have collected from the Roswell crash site. His father was an Air Force intelligence officer stationed at the Roswell Army Air Field in July of 1947.

Marcel Jr. says the metal his father let him play with also would return to its original form when crushed. Marcel is considered one of the most credible sources when it comes to the material. He also had a military background as a flight surgeon.

Jill says John also told her to grab a pair of scissors and try to cut the metal, but they were not able to cut it. Over the next week, the children experimented with testing the metal. They tried to burn it, but it would not get damaged and would remain at room temperature.

The children were careful to keep the metal secret, because John knew he was not supposed to have it.

Even so, soon after, when John saw Jill playing with Silly Puddy, he was so fascinated by the Silly Puddy he offered to trade Jill the mystery metal for the Silly Puddy. After some consideration, Jill accepted. That night, while riding her bike with the metal in her bicycle basket, Jill noticed the metal reacted strangely when light hit it.

However, she was not able to experiment with this new found property. John and his father came to her home and the Colonel asked for the material back. Jill says she could see John was shaken and knew he was in trouble.

The Colonel told Jill she never saw or had the material, and not to tell anyone about it.

“Do you know what cold happen to me if anyone found out you had this?,” he asked her.

He said he could lose his job, and if he did it would be on her.

“I was terrified, of the man, so of course I was not going to say anything,” Jill explained. ” And for many years I didn’t.”

It was a mix of fear and respect that kept Jill silent, and she believed if she had told anyone, John’s father would have lost his job. So she kept the secret for decades, until now.

“Naturally, I asked her why she decided to do the interview,” Joyce wrote me in her email. “She just said, it was time because she was 69-years-old and the people who would be hurt by telling the story were no longer living.  She also had to wrestle with her conscience because she had made a solemn promise and she always keeps her promises.”

Joyce believes Jill’s story. She says, “I should add that Jill is a professional who is well known and well respected in the county where we live.”

According to Joyce, she met Jill in 1998, and although Joyce has an interest in UFOs, Jill did not tell her the story about the metal until 2008.

Joyce said, “Of course I thought what a great story this would make and asked her if I could interview her about it.  Her answer was ‘Well, I’ll have to think about that.’ Periodically, I’d ask her again and always got that same answer.  Then after eight years, she agreed to be interviewed, but I had to promise to always keep her identity a secret. As hard as it is to believe, she hasn’t even told her husband and son.”

But now you know. Listen to the audio in the YouTube video at the top of this story. Hearing the story in Jill’s words is important. Once you have heard Jill’s story, let us know what you think in the comments below.

Witness says photos show UFO changing shape

A California witness at Grass Valley reported watching and photographing a sphere-shaped UFO that seemed to change shape during a seven-minute sighting, according to testimony in Case 76704 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The object was first seen at 7:30 p.m. on May 28, 2016, when the witness stepped outside onto a back deck.

“Just by pure chance I looked up and noticed a tiny dot high in the sky,” the witness stated.“At first I thought it was a planet, but after observing I realized it was slowly moving from left to right (east to south) in a slight upward angle. It was moving much too fast to be a planet and much too slow to be a satellite.”

The witness called out to his roommate, asking for a camera.

“Once I was able to show him the anomaly, he was able to get five pictures. The object stopped moving from left to right and began moving straight up until it crossed a very high altitude transparent cloud. Once it was in the area of the cloud it slowly faded from sight. The entire event lasted about 7 minutes.”

The witness stated that he was aware that the ISS was to do a flyover in his area – but the scheduled event was not to take place until 9:35 p.m., two hours after the observed event.

“It was an hour before sunset, so the sun was low to the west. To the naked eye the object appeared spherical and brighter on the side of the sun. Occasionally the object would dim. At no time did it look self-luminous, nor did it twinkle. I would say that it looked reflective, then less reflective, then reflective again, but with no apparent pattern.”

The two attempted to analyze the images.

“My roommate downloaded the photographs to his laptop, opened them in an image viewer and zoomed in up to 800 percent. Of the five photographs, we had images of very different objects even though they were all the same object. One image appeared as a fuzzy sphere, one a metallic sphere,one very fuzzy but with two points of reflection, one oblong and orange with what looks like a silver sphere at the bottom and, lastly, one that looked like an orange gold bell with a number of reflective spheres at its base. No two images are alike, yet all are of the same object only moments apart.”

Other attempts at photo analysis were not successful.

“One final note, Beale Air Force Base is about 30 miles west of where I live.”

Ohio witness videotapes sphere UFO inside ‘translucent square’

An Ohio witness at Rudolph reported watching and videotaping a UFO described as a “large ball within a translucent square,” according to testimony in Case 47675 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The reporting witness and her husband were outside sitting in the backyard about 9:30 p.m. on May 26, 2013, when the incident began.

“He suddenly looked over my shoulder and said, ‘What the hell is that?’ The object was almost directly over us and was huge.”

The witness described the object.

“It was a large, translucent square and within the square was a very bright, pulsating, white light that changed to a faint, glowing red light and then back to white. We watched it slowly and silently float across the sky until it was out of our view due to the tree line. It moved slower than a plane. We both videotaped it with our smart phones.”

The case was reported to MUFON on May 27, 2013, and investigated by Ohio Field Investigator Donovon Lee and closed as an Unknown.

Cropped and enlarged still image from the witness video.

“The object was spherical in shape and appeared to be glowing and/or pulsating as if it was ‘burning,’” Lee reported in the MUFON case file. “Color described as white but glowing to a reddish hue. Made no noise.

“The temperature was typical at 38 degrees with winds due south at 15 mph and partly cloudy. Investigator is personally familiar with the area where object would have been flying over and attests that it is simply farmland in the middle of nowhere, sparsely populated, with no major airports within 40 miles and no military bases in the region. Object derivation is indeterminablefrom videos, however, the following irregularities are noted: · Object moves too slow for a balloon/kite and too fast for an airplane. · Object is not visually consistent with any known toy or hobbyist vehicle. · Object moves opposite of the slight breeze, so it is self-propelled, not ‘pushed along.’· Not reported to MUFON, but on witnesses’ posts in YouTube, they also indicate a difference in size, saying, ‘Before we started taping, it was much bigger’ so it appears the object somewhat vacillated in size. Upon viewing the video, this is substantiated in the opposite – at 20 seconds into the video, object appears to glow, increasing approximately one-third in size.”

Cropped and enlarged still image from the witness video.

The Field Investigator also noted that two other Ohio cases were similar.

“The most unique aspect about this case is that there are two correlating cases of possibly the same type object. Case 47720 and a second reportfrom Ottawa, Ohio. I shared the video from this case with the witness in both cases and both verbally indicated that the object was, in their opinion, the same.”

Rudolph is an unincorporated community in eastern Liberty Township, Wood County, Ohio, population 458. Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

Editor’s note: A light inside of a “transparent square” is also a good description of a Chinese Lantern, which is most likely what this object is. However, there are differing opinions on this video. Share your’s below.

Mysterious UFOs Filmed During Apollo 10 Moon Mission (1969), June 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: June 2016
Location of discovery: Earths Moon, in Apollo 10 video

This is a mind-blowing video made by FindingUFO of Youtube. It was just released today and shows several UFOs in old Apollo 10 footage. I must have missed these, because I have never seen this raw footage before. This just goes to prove that even back during the Apollo age, the astronauts knew and saw UFOs on a regular basis. 

These are the videos that NASA doesn't want you to see. These are the pieces of evidence that NASA wants you to ignore. The time has come where we can no longer turn our back on the truth. Finding UFO really outdid themselves here. Click the above link and please give them a thumbs up on their video.

Woman Recalls Horrible Extraterrestrial Encounter: Was She Abducted?

Roy Dutton with abductee Valerie Walters

A Terrifying experience was recalled by an English woman who believed that she was abducted by an alien twenty years ago. Her alien encounter story will be detailed in a new book written by an expert and author of UFO Roy named Dutton. On July 16, 1981, around 1:45 a.m., Valerie Walters said she was driving home with her two friends, Vivienne, and Rosemary from a night out in Sheffield, United Kingdom. She was 26 years old at that time when a strange light hovering in the sky started to appear that terrified them. Moments later, a massive extraterrestrial aircraft flying directly above their car. Though she cannot remember what happened next, she is certain that there was a beeping noise that made her very sleepy.

As soon as she woke up, she noticed that her friends were gone. So, she came out of the car to look for them. Before she heard a strange voice, the car suddenly disappeared. The mysterious voice reminded her not to be afraid. Her head went red as she felt like she was being vacuumed after hearing the voice. She was already in front of some mysterious beings the next thing she knew. She recalled being in a white wedge-shaped room with two creatures, both with hypnotic blue eyes and shoulder length dark hair. Walters admitted that she and her friends reported the horrible extraterrestrial encounter to the police, but their case was not handled seriously. As with her friends, they cannot entirely recall what happened.

Alien abduction stories are not rare in humans. In fact, the Walters’ story is not the first case. According to the Inquisitr, it started in the 1950s, when people reported having been abducted by aliens in the “UFO Case Book.” In 2005, Donna Lee claimed to lose her baby after she and her husband were abducted by aliens repeatedly. Another man, in the same year, also claimed that aliens abducted him after spotting a strange object in his backyard.

Alabama Object

Huntsville — I was simply taking a picture of a cloud. Later, when I looked at the photo I noticed the object on August 24, 2016. There was a strange blue light in the sky.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

California Cylinder

Grass Valley — At 7:30 PM, Saturday, May 28.2016, I went to my back deck looked up and noticed a tiny dot high in the sky. I realized it was slowly moving from east to south in an upward angle. It was moving much too fast to be a planet and much to slow to be a satellite. I yelled to my roommate to get his camera and he was able to get five pictures. They began moving straight up until it crossed into a very high altitude cloud and faded from sight. The entire event lasted about 7 minutes. It was an hour before sunset; and the object appeared spherical and brighter on the sun side apparently reflecting the sun. We downloaded the photos and saw very different objects. One image was a fuzzy sphere, one a metallic sphere, one oblong, one was a silver sphere, and lastly one like an orange gold bell. Beale Air Force Base is about 30 miles west of where I live. Thanks to Derek and MUFON CMS

Florida Sphere

Gainesville — My son was running behind our house at sunset in a wooded area, beneath power lines on 25 May 2016. At 20:55 he saw an orange globe-shaped object silently hovering in place in the western sky. He ran toward it to get closer, stopped and took two pictures. Two beams of light appeared below the craft, but did not reach the ground. The beams appeared to be part of the propulsion system as moments after the beams appeared, the object slowly moved to the east. The beams did not point straight down, instead were slightly angled outward. He lost view of the object as it slowly moved behind the trees to the east. He texted me to come see an odd object in the sky, I ran out there, but it had disappeared behind the trees at that point. We ran down the hill to see if we could see it, but it was gone. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Massachusetts Sphere

Williamstown — I was at a friend’s farm alone on May 28, 2016, about 1130 am, and took a pretty picture of the view there with my Iphone. Then I went home and did not notice anything at the time.

Then I loaded the picture on my computer with no alteration and just happened to notice an object high in the sky.

I zoomed in and noticed it had a definite shape that seems like metal. It was not an airplane and we are not on any flight path.

So I have no idea what it is. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Michigan Triangle

Ludington – About 9:45 pm, on May 21, 2016, I started my bike and rode through Sterns Park Beach and Lake Michigan water front to look up to see it. It was large and broad moving east down the lakeshore over the water, it was dull and dark, triangular in shape. The underside didn’t seem to be lit but it had some reddish and bluish lights at its point and mid way down the side, it seemed to be a half mile out or so, it continued its current course still over the water, then it seemed to stay stock still. The only other lights were coastal lights. No other vehicles were around. I quick shifted into gear and took off fast. I was in top gear going about 80 to 90 mph as wind drifts the sand over the road and it can be hazardous.  I panicked slowing to a stop. It looked to be a half mile to a mile up above the ground. It hoved there for at least three minutes then shot straight up over to the south and then disappeared. I recall the lights seemed to rotate while it waited. NOTE: The above image is CGI. Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ Website

Minnesota Lights

Upon taking our puppy outside at 9:41 pm on Sunday May 29th, 2016 my fiancé and I observed a bright white light with an orange colored aura around it. It wasobserved NW from our home and very quickly disappeared thereafter. We decided to sit and watch for a while to see if it came back. It did at 9:52 pm. The light appeared bright white, but when it dimmed, it had an orange glow, flickered, pulsated-like, and then dove down quickly. Over the course of three hours, the light came and went but did not stay in view for very long and dimmed too much for video. However, I was able to take a few pictures with my Iphone 6 Plus). During that time, we witnessed the light change direction (from North to South and West to East), descend and ascend. emit orbs of light, disappear and re-appear, hover and sometimes follow a path or fly together with the orbs of light it had emitted. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Hampshire Lights

Nashua — Just before twilight, my wife and I had just finished walking our dog on May 29, 2016, when I saw two strange large red orange lights. They rose from behind the white pine trees heading southwest on an overcast evening. These orbs moved in a floaty but controlled way, but unlike any aircraft I know. As they traveled, they seemed to have subtly moved around as they headed on their trajectory. These two orbs were followed by four more in an identical way. My wife and I were completely amazed. I captured this event on my iPhone. My wife told me that she saw two of them move together then apart as they were departing. Ten minutes later, we saw two more of these same orbs acting in a similar manner. These orbs were below cloud level and disappeared by fading into a small dot. Thanks to MUFON CMS

  North Carolina Disc

Wilmington –At the beach in my brother and his wife fishing sister in law notice rough waters and took picture on May 27, 2016.

After posting on Facebook shenoticed this strange object that she didn’t notice when she took picture.  Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ohio Light

Grove City — The sky was a storm brewing on May30, 2016. I took picture just because of the sky. I did not see a dot in the sky or over the house until I viewed a picture later. I zoomed in and it’s a strange object that appears to have lights inside.
Maybe it’s just a cloud but a weird one. A chemtrail was nearby as well. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Oregon Ball of Light Explodes

Portland – On May 25, 2016, a man experienced a bright ball of light in his bedroom that immediately exploded. The next day the man noted a strange scar on his ankle that wasn’t there before.

He said that the mark resembled a claw. The man regularly tries to communicate with higher intelligence (aliens) through crystals.

Thanks to William Puckett, Director Website

Pennsylvania Light

Reading — Took notice of a red light in the sky on May 25, 2016, that looked like a red star. I thought it might be Mars, but became clear that it was a moving object in the sky. It moved closer into view and then hovered completely still with its red glow for 5 minutes. It shocked me to see it shift from left to right at amazing speeds then slowly go back to hovering. Then it descended lower, and shot back up into the sky and vanished. This was clearly something with so much control and speed. There were three other people with me who witnessed the event. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Light

Dallas — Watching thunderstorms on my balcony oon May 29, 2016, an orange ball flew overhead parallel to US 35. This was very different from the hundred of aircraft I see taking off or landing at DFW or Love field, which are also visible from my balcony. At first I thought it was a plane but within a couple of seconds I realized this was different. I went from that’s weird, to I need to film this, so I turned on my iPhone 6S to video. My wife was with me and observed it as well. I lost sight of the object when it ascended above the cloud deck in the direction of DFW airport. I went inside to get a better camera when a second object appeared, identical to the first. I tried to get the lens cap off, and focus the camera quickly but it disappeared before above the clouds before I could. This was distinctly different from aviation lights I see all the time.

Australia Disc 3 Bright Objects

Port Macquarie – Objects wee moving in sync in the sky on May 3, 2016. They traversed across the sky from NNW to SSE.

I checked with several satellite tracking sites and found no correlation to this formation.

I’m keen to know what they are. It is possible to be military or other? Thanks to William Puckett, DirectorWebsite

Canberra — I went outside for a cigarette late in the afternoon on May 18, 2016, and stood at the end of the driveway near the road. Looked to my left and noticed a very bright object in the sky to the northwest. At first I thought it was a jet with vapor trail but it wasn’t moving. I then grabbed my camera which had an x 1.8 teleconverter attached and a tripod.

I began filming the object in HD and notified my neighbors when they arrived home. They came to see it as well. It looked like a glowing jellybean. I rang two friends while filming it.
It moved very slowly to the west. It seemed to be glowing but the darker it got the dimmer it got. I filmed it for over 40 minutes. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Canada Light

Keswick, Ontario — On May 23, 2016 my wife watched what seems to be the same thing you saw. I managed to take a picture before it disappeared.

The object was a red and orange ball that looked similar to a flare, but was definitely not a flare. It flew directly towards us at a height of approximately 1,000 feet then veered away from us, climbed quickly and then accelerated out of sight.

We viewed it for about 5 minutes in total. It was the most fascinating thing I have ever seen. I wish I could have got a better shot of it. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Website

Germany UFO

Alling – In the Bayern Region of Germany — A strange flying object was seen. I took a spontaneous photo.

It was only 500 feet to a mile away. It hovered for awhile and then flew away on a path. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ireland Object

Cork – I was looking at the moon with the naked eye, until I uploaded the photo’s to my PC!

Have a look and remember it’s not the moon that’s strange in the photo, but the strange objects to the left and down. Zoom in.

I also have more photos and video footage on a close encounter at 60 feet which had a physical affect on me. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Zealand Light

TAUPO — While traveling home from work I was stopped at road works. I noticed as the sun was going down 2 orbs one above the setting sun and one to the Left in what looked like a another sunset.
The orb on the left is Green with 4 white dots on its surface and the one above the Sun was white. I thought it was very strange to see another mini sunset to the left and then I could just make out the green orb.  When I arrived home and enlarged the picture I noticed the 4 white dots on its surface and also the other orb. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Portugal Light

Charneca de Caparica — One more night chasing UFOs on May 25^th, 2016, and this one was more bright than the others crossing. At the same time I have now the planets of Jupiter, Mars and Saturn. At this time of observation no planes were flying or passing by.

If we multiplied this observation for the people who are seeing the same as me, we arrived to a conclusion: this planet doesn`t belong to us. The logistics are so big that we can calculate an invasion. I have a son 11 years old, what kind of legacy have I left him!? We must do much more to bring the true to the world, later we do that worse will be to the society, remember my words. Thanks to MUFON CMS and Sal

 Peru Disc

Cachachi — Today at 10 PM, we were alerted by teachers in kindergarten that they could observe a white disc hovering in Araqueda Cachachi, Cajamarca.

An unidentified object of surprises dwells in center village on May 24, 2016.

The sky above Araqueda, they used zoom lens captured the following image. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 UK England Object

Leigh — I had just gone into my rear yard to put an empty bottle into the bin I saw flashing lights in the sky. There were four red lights flashing brightly and when they faded there was a constant green band of light across the middle, separating the top half from the bottom. At first I thought the police helicopter was out again, but as i watched i realized there was no noise. No noise at all. There were planes flying over as i live about 12 miles from Manchester airport and i could hear those. It didn’t seem to be moving at all. Just flashing. I ran into the house and woke my partner up. I was excited. When you have cancelled everything else out, it could only be one thing. A ufo. I grabbed my phone and went back outside. My partner joined me and we both tried to work out just what it was. We both watched and agreed we had never seen anything like it before. After about 15 mins my partner went back in and left me to it. It seemed to be moving extremely slowly. In the 50 minutes i was watching i would say it had traveled approximately 10 miles. It seemed to be stopping at points. The lights looked to be brighter then but that might have been my eyes because it was dark. I watched planes of all altitudes travel across the sky and all were gone in less than five minutes. Eventually it vanished behind the roof of the house behind ours. I tried to video it but my phone would zoom in far enough and being dark you couldn’t see any thing but a small light. The video is jumpy because im at full zoom, so it is the phone not the object moving. You can see it flashing though. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Prehistoric X-Men: How the 'First Mutants' Gave Humans 'Superpowers'

The world's "first mutant," played by Oscar Isaac, in "X-Men: Apocalypse," may be far-fetched. But real-life mutations have given humans some pretty cool superpowers.

In "X-Men: Apocalypse," hitting theaters Friday (May 27), a big, blue powerhouse called "the world's first mutant" threatens humanity with his fearsome abilities. Though real-life mutations haven't given people apocalyptic powers (yet!), science has hinted at some of the human lineage's "first mutations."

From genes implicated in the ballooning of the human brain to mutations associated with the modern diet, genetic tweaks to our human ancestors helped make this species the dominant one on the globe — at least until an Apocalypse comes along.

Here are some of the "first mutants" in humanity's prehistory.

Big brains

In the movies and the original comic books, the X-Men follow the lead of Professor Charles Xavier. "Professor X's" mutant telepathy offers an appropriate sci-fi echo of some of the real mutations that set humans apart in prehistory: genetic changes that allowed for big, powerful brains. [10 Features That Make Humans Special]

Research into the fully sequenced genomes of gorillas helped to identify one such gene: Called RNF213, it showed accelerated evolution in the branch of primates that includes humans, gorillas and chimpanzees, said Aylwyn Scally, a geneticist at the University of Cambridge in England, who led the research.

"What we mean [by accelerated evolution] is not just that it's accumulated a lot of differences," Scally told Live Science. "What we're looking for in accelerated evolution are changes that really do change the protein sequence."

And that's just what happened with RNF213, he said. What's more, other researchers have linked deficiencies in RNF213 with moyamoya disease, which involves decreased blood flow to the brain. This suggests RNF213's evolution helped facilitate the large blood flow needed by big, energy-hungry brains, Scally said.

In general, Scally and his colleagues found that genes related to brain development and sensory-information processing showed accelerated evolution in the human lineage. In fact, RNF213 is just one of many genes, such as "Frizzled-8" and ASPM, linked to brain-size evolution in humans, Katherine Pollard, who studies human genetics at the University of California, San Francisco, told Live Science.

Powerful computers

Of course, human brains aren't just big. Like Professor X's brain-boosting "Cerebro" computer, the real human brain is a powerful processor. And scientists have also identified a few mutations that might have helped to juice up the human computer.

Disease studies revealed that a DNA region called HAR1 shows activity in the human brain, which means the DNA is turned on, and not suppressed in brain cells. Specifically, during brain development, this region shows activity within neurons that help lay down the pattern of the cerebral cortex, the gray-matter seat of consciousness, language and memory. Moreover, early studies comparing the human and chimpanzee genomes identified HAR1 as evolving rapidly in humans after the human-chimpanzee split.

"We thought the most important chimp-human differences would be these sequences that had been frozen throughout evolution … but then changed just in humans," Pollard said. Those regions are the HARs (human accelerated regions), and HAR1 was the fastest-evolving of those regions in humans, Pollard told Live Science.

Research has linked another gene, FOXP2, with an important accomplishment of the human brain: language. Individuals with FOXP2 mutations have speech difficulties, and the gene was identified by Pollard as another evolutionary hotspot.

"So that's very exciting and suggests that it could have a role in our language abilities," Pollard said. "It's interesting because that region of the genome, both in its regulation and the gene itself, are quite different between humans and chimps."

Conquering mouths

Professor X isn't the X-Men's only claim to fame, just as the brain isn't the be-all and end-all of human prowess. Like fan-favorite Wolverine, whose mutant "healing factor" tamps down toxins, humanity owes some of its success to an ability to ward off sickness. [11 Surprising Facts About the Immune System]

The migration of ancient humans across the globe, over the period from 200,000 years ago to 18,000 years ago, suggests they could eat a wide variety of plants, said Nathaniel Dominy, an anthropologist at Dartmouth College. Research by Dominy and colleagues suggests that a gene called AMY1 helped make such a wide-ranging diet possible.

"One of the really extraordinary things about modern humans is … how we rapidly colonized the rest of the world," Dominy told Live Science. And the only way that could have happened "is if we were able to adapt to local conditions, and that would have entailed the experimentation of new, local plant foods."

Plants have defenses, though, which often result in diarrhea, sapping unlucky diners of nutrients. AMY1, which codes the enzyme that digests starch, may have helped early humans obtain the glucose from plants before getting sick, Dominy said.

That's because modern humans have more copies of AMY1 compared to human relatives (chimps and bonobos), and in humans and close relatives, AMY1 is expressed in the mouth, not just in the intestines. This means people can begin effectively digesting starch as soon as they take a bite — long before the meal hits their intestines and could make them sick, Dominy said.

It's complicated

Despite these exciting findings, geneticists have gotten more conservative in their predictions about human evolution, Pollard said. In other words, just as the X-Men franchise oversimplifies mutation, early research into human genes may have oversimplified how human evolution occurs.

Linkages like that between HAR1 and the brain's cortex are based on "guilt by association" evidence, Pollard said. "It's in the right place at the right time to have that effect," she said. Actually proving such an effect has been more difficult, she said.

More recent work has dismantled the idea that a single gene may encode intelligence, language, bipedalism and other complex human traits, Scally said.

"With complicated phenotypes, like intelligence, it seems those are also very complicated at the genetic level," Scally said. "It's a very marginal change across a whole bunch of genes." Phenotypes are the traits of an organism.

In addition, many scientists have focused their attention on regulatory regions of DNA, which turn other genes on and off, Pollard said. That work "suggests that humans and chimps aren't different because we have different building blocks or proteins, but that we're using those same building materials in different ways," she said.

But coming to terms with those complications is just part of the process of unraveling humanity's genetic background, Scally said.

"We are groping towards that question of what makes humans unique," he said. "But we're still fairly near the beginning of that journey."

Weird Shapes on Pluto Hint at Icy 'Face-Lift' Over Time

The strange polygon-shaped terrain on Pluto can be seen clearly on the right side of this image captured by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft during its historic flyby on July 14, 2015. Scientists say the strange shapes are signs of geologic activity from churning nitrogen ice that can change the face of Pluto over time.

Strange geometric shapes miles wide seen on Pluto's icy surface likely formed because of a churning sheet of frozen nitrogen more than a half-mile thick, two new studies find. The findings reinforce the idea that Pluto is not cold and dead but surprisingly geologically active, the researchers say.

The findings could shed light on how other icy dwarf planets far beyond Pluto in the solar system might behave, the researchers added.

Scientists analyzed the most prominent geological feature on Pluto — a vast, oval-shaped basin informally named Sputnik Planum. The area, which stretches across Pluto's equator, is about 347,500 square miles (900,000 square kilometers) and at least 1.2 to 1.8 miles (2 to 3 km) deep. Its shape and surrounding mountains suggest it is a crater left over from a giant cosmic impact "maybe 4 billion or more years ago," said William McKinnon, a planetary geophysicist at Washington University in St. Louis and lead author of one of the two studies analyzing Pluto. [See the Amazing Pluto Pictures by New Horizons]

The surface of Pluto’s icy Sputnik Planum — seen here in a photo captured by NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft during its close flyby of the dwarf planet on July 14, 2015 — is covered with churning ice “cells” that are geologically young and turning over due to convection.

The mystery of Pluto's polygons

Sputnik Planum is filled with ice made up predominantly of nitrogen. This frozen nitrogen is broken up into odd, irregular polygons about 6 to 25 miles (10 to 40 km) across, and the centers of some of these polygons rise about 165 feet (50 meters) above their sides.

To discover the origins ofthese mysterious polygons, which the researchers also called "cells," the scientists analyzed data from NASA's New Horizons spacecrraft, which made the first-ever flyby of Pluto in July 2015. Their computer models suggest that convection, or churning that arises from the rising and sinking of warmer and cooler matter, could help explain the giant sizes of these cells. (Pluto's innards are warmer than its surface because of heat from long-lived radioactive material.)

Pluto's polygon-shaped terrain is located in Sputnik Planum, a region that forms the bright, western half of the heart-shaped region near the center of this enhanced image of Pluto from NASA's New Horizons flyby.

Specifically, the research team's models suggest that layers of nitrogen ice more than 0.6 miles (1 km) thick are convecting to create these cells. "The convection you're seeing here is unlike anything seen before in the solar system, because the material that's convecting isn't rigid and strong — everything here is softer," McKinnon told Space.com. "Nitrogen ice is not soft like a gummy bear is soft, but still more pliable than water ice on Earth, so it's convecting vigorously and forming these polygonal cells."

A face-lift for Pluto

The scientists estimated that convection likely leads the surface of Sputnik Planum to renew itself about every half-million years. This makes it one of the youngest surfaces in the solar system.

McKinnon noted that in the past, "Pluto's internal heat flow would have been higher, so the convection would have been even more vigorous, and could even have led to melting of the solid nitrogen at depth, which, by being buoyant, would have erupted as a very fluid 'lava.'"

Pluto, the most famous dwarf planet in our solar system, underwent a well-publicized (and somewhat controversial) reclassification that took away its title as the ninth and most distant planet from the sun. So, how well do you know this fascinating world?

 

The researchers suggested that similar convective processes may also occur at other dwarf planets, such as those in the Kuiper Belt, the shadowy disk-shaped region beyond the orbit of Neptune that scientists think is populated by a trillion or more comets as well as hundreds of thousands of icy moon-size objects. Such convection might help explain why some icy Kuiper Belt objects are as shiny as they are — such churning would continuously give them new faces of reflective ice relatively unmarred by craters and dust.

The scientists detailed their findings in two papers, one here and the other here, in the June 2 issue of the journal Nature.

Picture sensation: Does viral image show crashed UFO on its way to mysterious Area 51?

A photo of a flatbed semi-hauler snapped on Friday morning — March 4, 2016 — as it transported a mysterious saucer-shaped object draped in tarpaulin on Arizona State Route 77 near Holbrook, has gone viral on social media. Public curiosity about the mysterious object was piqued after inquiries with the Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) by a local Arizona station elicited a “cryptic response.”

The photo (see below) was uploaded to social media by Charlene Yazzie. She passed the truck while driving on Arizona State Route 77 near Holbrook in Arizona. She was surprised when she noticed the truck was escorted by black Department of Public Safety (DPS) vehicles. She wondered what the covered flying saucer-shaped object could be and snapped a picture.

“I was driving north and the truck was headed south to the freeway,” she told local Arizona station KPHO. “It was escorted by three DPS vehicles.”

She uploaded the picture to Facebook where it attracted a lot of attention. Members of the UFO community speculated freely about it.

When KPHO approached the DPS for an explanation of the mysterious tarp-draped object, the Duty Office responded, saying, “Unfortunately we do not know what that is but it looks interesting.”

The response fuelled suspicion and sparked even wilder speculation, with conspiracy theorists construing it as an acknowledgment that the object was top secret and that the DPS personnel who escorted it had also been kept in the dark about what it was.

UFO hunters alleged that the “higher ups” were hoping they could get away with transporting alien technology newly recovered from a crash site to Area 51 in broad daylight.

UFO conspiracy theorists believe that the military and government agencies have recovered crashed UFOs from multiple sites in the past and that government scientists and engineers are working in multiple top-secret bases to reverse-engineer the propulsion technologies of the UFOs.

According to conspiracy theorists, the first case known to the public occurred in 1947 when an alien UFO allegedly crashed at a ranch near Roswell in New Mexico. It was rumored that the military authorities recovered alien corpses from the crash site. Some conspiracy theorists claim that alien survivors in the crash were housed secretly in Area 51 and forced to help government scientists to reverse-engineer the spacecraft’s propulsion technology.

Related conspiracy theories that emerged in the decades after the Roswell incident claim that the U.S. government entered into military-technology alliance with advanced alien races that helped the Nazis to develop the V-2 rocket technology.

Major breakthroughs in the U.S. space program in the era after the Second World War were due to assistance received from advanced alien races, such as the Grays, the Tall Whites, and the highly evolved Arcturian races.

Reports of ongoing advanced research into “impossible” EM Drive technology at NASA’s Eagleworks Laboratory and a new technology called “directed energy propulsion,” which could make a journey to Mars last only 30 minutes, have fuelled speculation that major breakthrough has been achieved in decades-long efforts to reverse-engineer UFOs recovered from UFO crash sites.

According to conspiracy theorists, government agencies are deliberately teasing with snippets of information released to the media to prepare the public for the unveiling of new radical technologies derived from alien spacecraft reverse-engineering projects.

UFO blogger Scott C. Waring also asserted that the semi-hauler was carrying a flying saucer UFO, and that it was being transported from the top-secret Area 51 military base in the Nevada Desert.

He suggested that the UFO could be the latest advanced technology from the U.S. government’s alien allies.

“This could be some of the alien tech being moved out of Area S4, part of Area 51,” he wrote. “For the USAF to be transporting it and not flying it, means this is the newest alien tech — probably given recently from aliens to the USAF as a gift.”

But some skeptics criticized Waring’s assumption that the government would transport “earth shattering secret equipment down a civilian roadway.”

“Ha ha! What is dumber than transporting a potentially earth shattering piece of secret equipment down a civilian roadway? Do it during the light of day! C’mon guys,” one skeptic wrote.

Another commented, “But it is a well-known fact that Scott don’t have a clue what he is talking about. This is no UFO nor is it alien tech.”

Footage from the International Space Station’s live feed on Thursday captured an amazing scene of what appears to be a large fireball streaking through space.

The footage, posted to YouTube by UFO investigators from SecureTeam 10, has extraterrestrial hunters excited, and has sparked debate over whether the fireball is an alien spacecraft.

The video, which had been viewed nearly 20,000 times within hours of being posted, has been flooded with comments from people debating the fireball, with claims ranging from a comet, to a meteor or just an old-school UFO.

"This amazing piece of ISS footage that was just emailed to me a few minutes ago has got me very excited,” Tyler Glockner of the UFO-spotter’s group told the Mirror.

"We have posted a lot of ISS videos showing these UFOs up there," he added.

Glockner opined that the object could not be a fireball, as there is no oxygen in space, and therefore material cannot combust.

"It comes out of the darkness of space,’ he declaimed, “flies up behind the ISS and we can actually see, just before it disappears, some red lights shining on the ISS.”

"When the ISS finally comes into view of the sun and you can see the Earth beginning to show underneath it and you can see in the exact spot where this object appears, there is nothing there."

Still, most suggest that the fireball is simply a meteor entering Earth’s atmosphere.

“It's a meteor. If you continue the line of the earth's borders it matches up with the spot where the "ufo" appeared. It's quite obviously a meteor hitting the atmosphere,” a commenter posted.

"Looks like a view from the ISS of the meteorite exploding over Arizona,” another said.

Conspiracy theorists remain unappeased, however, as one user posts: "2 times last year I went to the live feed of the I.S.S. and both times within 15 mins or so… I seen a ship coming into view of the camera one was unbelievable and they cut the feed."

Believers will believe what they want, but the image remains a spectacular sight.

Clinton Plays the “UFO” Card and Snags the ‘Alien’-ated Crowd

For those who are not yet current on the UFO phenomenon—get ready—but also for the rest of us, for whom these infuriating delays are like, testing our mettle.

Seriously, how can we like, take any politician seriously who actually uses “like” this way? Maybe WE could have, like, a task force and throw you in jail like we should have done years ago.

Unless you live under a mossy rock, you like, had to know this campaign promise was coming! How could it not after the witty late-night television repartees? And, like nearly all campaign promises in America, it, too would get swept into the ditch and wind up in the sewer drain—IF—Clinton were elected. But she won’t be.

Even with Holder’s campaign fund raiser (see that story below) the criminals cannot pull this off. They’re thick as thieves and protect and support each other—which will make it that much easier to round them up.

The email security issue aside—Benghazi, the blatant lies, the money laundering, the pedophilia, the murders… The FBI like, HAS to indict Clinton, and if they don’t—there will be some serious repercussions in America.

Americans not only have guns, they like, know how to use them, and we don’t want to go there. We had better hope destiny unfolds in favour of The People and set a powerful intention for a peaceful transition.  ~ BP

With vows to open files, Clinton pulls in UFO vote

By Amy Chozick New York Times  May 11, 2016

When Jimmy Kimmel asked Hillary Clinton in a late-night TV interview about UFOs, she quickly corrected his terminology.

“You know, there’s a new name,” Clinton said in the March appearance. “It’s unexplained aerial phenomenon,” she said. “UAP. That’s the latest nomenclature.”

Known for her grasp of policy, Clinton has spoken at length in her presidential campaign on topics ranging from Alzheimer’s research to military tensions in the South China Sea. But it is her unusual knowledge about extraterrestrials that has struck a small but committed cohort of voters.Clinton has vowed that barring any threats to national security, she would open up government files on the subject, a shift from President Barack Obama, who typically dismisses the topic as a joke. Her position has elated UFO enthusiasts, who have declared Clinton the first “E.T. candidate.”

“Hillary has embraced this issue with an absolutely unprecedented level of interest in American politics,” said Joseph G. Buchman, who has spent decades calling for more transparency in government about extraterrestrials.

Clinton, a cautious candidate who often bemoans being the subject of Republican conspiracy theories, has shown surprising ease plunging into the discussion of the possibility of extraterrestrial beings.

She has said in recent interviews that as president she would release information about Area 51, the remote Air Force base in Nevada believed by some to be a secret hub where the government stores classified information about aliens and UFOs.

In a radio interview last month, she said, “I want to open the files as much as we can.” Asked if she believed in UFOs, Clinton said, “I don’t know. I want to see what the information shows.” But, she added, “There’s enough stories out there that I don’t think everybody is just sitting in their kitchen making them up.”

When asked about extraterrestrials in an interview with The Conway Daily Sun in New Hampshire late last year, Clinton promised to “get to the bottom of it.”

“I think we may have been” visited already, she said in the interview. “We don’t know for sure.”

While Americans typically point to issues like the economy and terrorism as top priorities for the next president, a desire for answers about aliens has inspired a passionate bloc of voters, who make their voices heard on social media.

Stephen Bassett, who lobbies the government on extraterrestrial issues, views a Clinton presidency as a chance to finally get the United States to disclose all it knows about life beyond Earth. Since November 2014, Bassett’s organization has sent roughly 2.5 million Twitter messages to presidential candidates, elected officials and the media urging a serious discussion of the issue.

“That was a storm and now it’s like a steady drip,” Bassett said.

The movement viewed Clinton’s decision to correct Kimmel’s use of the term UFO, which some view as loaded and more rooted in science fiction rather than in science, in particular, as a breakthrough because it “suggested she’d been briefed by someone and is not just being flippant,” Buchman said.

In fact, Clinton had been briefed. She was prepped by her campaign chairman, John D. Podesta, who is not only a well-respected Washington hand, having served as a top adviser to Obama and President Bill Clinton, but is also a crusader for disclosure of government information on unexplained phenomena that could prove the existence of intelligent life outside Earth.

“The time to pull back the curtain on the topic is long overdue,” Podesta wrote in his foreword for the 2010 book “UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go on the Record” by Leslie Kean, an investigative journalist.

Hillary Clinton’s position is not a political response to public sentiment — 63 percent of Americans do not believe in UFOs, according to an Associated Press poll. But it reflects the decades of overlap between the rise to power of Bill and Hillary Clinton and popular culture’s obsession with the universe’s most mysterious questions.

In 1996, Hillary Clinton was ridiculed after Bob Woodward reported, in his book “The Choice,” that as first lady she had held discussions with her deceased role models, Eleanor Roosevelt and Mohandas K. Gandhi. The offbeat tabloid Weekly World News dreamed up sensational headlines about Hillary Clinton adopting an alien baby and having a “UFO love nest.”

Bill Clinton’s presidency also coincided with the hit television series “The X-Files” and movies like “Independence Day,” which gave way to an era of fascination with the existence of aliens and the possibility of a government cover-up.

Podesta, an “X-Files” fanatic, ran a fan club for the show in the Clinton White House. “The X-Files fan club would like to invite you and Mulder to lunch at the White House. Don’t let the boss know,” he wrote in a 1998 email, referring to the show’s fictional FBI agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, according to White House documents. In 1999, Podesta had an “X-Files”-themed 50th birthday party that the Clintons attended.

When Podesta left the White House last year, before joining Hillary Clinton’s campaign, he posted on Twitter: “Finally, my biggest failure of 2014: Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files. #thetruthisstilloutthere.”

Podesta declined to comment for this article.

Clinton, who speaks frequently about her childhood aspirations to be a NASA astronaut, has been sympathetic to Podesta’s efforts.

In 1995, when she was photographed visiting Laurance S. Rockefeller, the billionaire philanthropist, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, she had tucked under her arm a copy of “Are We Alone?: Philosophical Implications of the Discovery of Extraterrestrial Life” by Paul Davies.

Before that meeting, John H. Gibbons, former director of the White House Office’s of Science and Technology Policy, had warned Clinton about Rockefeller, who had spent years pressuring the government to release files relating to a 1947 crash at a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico, that had become the source of theories about a cover-up of an alien spaceship. He will “want to talk to you about his interest in extrasensory perception, paranormal phenomena and UFOs,” Gibbons wrote.

The meeting enthralled conspiracy theorists and, in turn, inspired Hollywood writers.

“If you look at our mythology, there are elements of those kinds of meetings,” said Chris Carter, creator and executive producer of “The X Files,” said in an interview. Carter, who is supporting Clinton, added, “If I have to become a fundraiser to get an invite to her opening up the files, I’ll do it.”

When Clinton started to talk openly about UFOs and government disclosure in her 2016 campaign, some activists traced the remarks back to the 1995 meeting with Rockefeller.

To this subset of Americans who say the government is covering up what it knows about aliens, and who are incredibly vocal on social media, Clinton’s discussion of extraterrestrials signaled an important turn.

Other activists do not care as much about Clinton’s vow to “open the files,” but do want prominent politicians to seriously acknowledge that humans may not be the only intelligent life in the universe. A major victory, some say, would be for the candidates to be asked about the topic in a presidential debate.

“It shouldn’t be a source of embarrassment to discuss it,” said Christopher Mellon, a former intelligence official at the Defense Department and the Senate Intelligence Committee.

“We should be humble in terms of recognizing the extreme limits of our own understanding of physics and the universe.”

Clinton Plays the “UFO” Card and Snags the ‘Alien’-ated Crowd

For those who are not yet current on the UFO phenomenon—get ready—but also for the rest of us, for whom these infuriating delays are like, testing our mettle.

Seriously, how can we like, take any politician seriously who actually uses “like” this way? Maybe WE could have, like, a task force and throw you in jail like we should have done years ago.

Unless you live under a mossy rock, you like, had to know this campaign promise was coming! How could it not after the witty late-night television repartees? And, like nearly all campaign promises in America, it, too would get swept into the ditch and wind up in the sewer drain—IF—Clinton were elected. But she won’t be.

Even with Holder’s campaign fund raiser (see that story below) the criminals cannot pull this off. They’re thick as thieves and protect and support each other—which will make it that much easier to round them up.

The email security issue aside—Benghazi, the blatant lies, the money laundering, the pedophilia, the murders… The FBI like, HAS to indict Clinton, and if they don’t—there will be some serious repercussions in America.

Americans not only have guns, they like, know how to use them, and we don’t want to go there. We had better hope destiny unfolds in favour of The People and set a powerful intention for a peaceful transition.  ~ BP

With vows to open files, Clinton pulls in UFO vote

By Amy Chozick New York Times  May 11, 2016

When Jimmy Kimmel asked Hillary Clinton in a late-night TV interview about UFOs, she quickly corrected his terminology.

“You know, there’s a new name,” Clinton said in the March appearance. “It’s unexplained aerial phenomenon,” she said. “UAP. That’s the latest nomenclature.”

Known for her grasp of policy, Clinton has spoken at length in her presidential campaign on topics ranging from Alzheimer’s research to military tensions in the South China Sea. But it is her unusual knowledge about extraterrestrials that has struck a small but committed cohort of voters.Clinton has vowed that barring any threats to national security, she would open up government files on the subject, a shift from President Barack Obama, who typically dismisses the topic as a joke. Her position has elated UFO enthusiasts, who have declared Clinton the first “E.T. candidate.”

“Hillary has embraced this issue with an absolutely unprecedented level of interest in American politics,” said Joseph G. Buchman, who has spent decades calling for more transparency in government about extraterrestrials.

Clinton, a cautious candidate who often bemoans being the subject of Republican conspiracy theories, has shown surprising ease plunging into the discussion of the possibility of extraterrestrial beings.

She has said in recent interviews that as president she would release information about Area 51, the remote Air Force base in Nevada believed by some to be a secret hub where the government stores classified information about aliens and UFOs.

In a radio interview last month, she said, “I want to open the files as much as we can.” Asked if she believed in UFOs, Clinton said, “I don’t know. I want to see what the information shows.” But, she added, “There’s enough stories out there that I don’t think everybody is just sitting in their kitchen making them up.”

When asked about extraterrestrials in an interview with The Conway Daily Sun in New Hampshire late last year, Clinton promised to “get to the bottom of it.”

“I think we may have been” visited already, she said in the interview. “We don’t know for sure.”

While Americans typically point to issues like the economy and terrorism as top priorities for the next president, a desire for answers about aliens has inspired a passionate bloc of voters, who make their voices heard on social media.

Stephen Bassett, who lobbies the government on extraterrestrial issues, views a Clinton presidency as a chance to finally get the United States to disclose all it knows about life beyond Earth. Since November 2014, Bassett’s organization has sent roughly 2.5 million Twitter messages to presidential candidates, elected officials and the media urging a serious discussion of the issue.

“That was a storm and now it’s like a steady drip,” Bassett said.

The movement viewed Clinton’s decision to correct Kimmel’s use of the term UFO, which some view as loaded and more rooted in science fiction rather than in science, in particular, as a breakthrough because it “suggested she’d been briefed by someone and is not just being flippant,” Buchman said.

In fact, Clinton had been briefed. She was prepped by her campaign chairman, John D. Podesta, who is not only a well-respected Washington hand, having served as a top adviser to Obama and President Bill Clinton, but is also a crusader for disclosure of government information on unexplained phenomena that could prove the existence of intelligent life outside Earth.

“The time to pull back the curtain on the topic is long overdue,” Podesta wrote in his foreword for the 2010 book “UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go on the Record” by Leslie Kean, an investigative journalist.

Hillary Clinton’s position is not a political response to public sentiment — 63 percent of Americans do not believe in UFOs, according to an Associated Press poll. But it reflects the decades of overlap between the rise to power of Bill and Hillary Clinton and popular culture’s obsession with the universe’s most mysterious questions.

In 1996, Hillary Clinton was ridiculed after Bob Woodward reported, in his book “The Choice,” that as first lady she had held discussions with her deceased role models, Eleanor Roosevelt and Mohandas K. Gandhi. The offbeat tabloid Weekly World News dreamed up sensational headlines about Hillary Clinton adopting an alien baby and having a “UFO love nest.”

Bill Clinton’s presidency also coincided with the hit television series “The X-Files” and movies like “Independence Day,” which gave way to an era of fascination with the existence of aliens and the possibility of a government cover-up.

John Podesta

Podesta, an “X-Files” fanatic, ran a fan club for the show in the Clinton White House. “The X-Files fan club would like to invite you and Mulder to lunch at the White House. Don’t let the boss know,” he wrote in a 1998 email, referring to the show’s fictional FBI agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, according to White House documents. In 1999, Podesta had an “X-Files”-themed 50th birthday party that the Clintons attended.

Winnipegger details Canada's most famous UFO sightings

BY DOUG LUNNEY, WINNIPEG SUN

An example of a UFO crash that Chris Rutkowski considers more compelling than Roswell is from Wallaston Lake, Sask., where this fragment from a “space vehicle” was found and taken to the National Research Council of Canada in Ottawa.

The 1947 UFO incident in Roswell, New Mexico is the most famous of its kind, but Chris Rutkowski believes there are more compelling cases that have happened in Canada — they just haven't received the same attention because they happened north of the U.S. border.

Rutkowski, a Winnipegger who has researched UFOs since the 1970s, spent a few months studying UFO crashes in Canada. He was surprised to find "more than a dozen well-witnessed and well-documented examples of odd or unexpected objects apparently descending from the sky and landing or crashing on Canadian soil."

Rutkowski, who listed the incidents on his blog (uforum.blogspot.ca), defined the crashes as anything unexplained that was witnessed to have fallen from the sky and didn't fly away.

"Certainly the Roswell one is the most famous one, but the purpose of this report was to show that there are many such cases not just around the world, but here in Canada," Rutkowski, research co-ordinator for UFOlogy Research of Manitoba, said Thursday. "To find more than a dozen, I think that's pretty interesting.

"Roswell has such a tremendous machine behind it to promote it ... it's taken on a mythology of its own. The fact is we actually have better cases, it's just that we're not Roswell."

The only Canadian example that received its share of attention globally happened in Shag Harbour off the coast of Nova Scotia in 1967, Rutkowski said, adding it's sometimes called "Canada's Roswell."

"This classic case is actually a bit better than Roswell, because a number of official documents have been located suggesting something really happened, unlike Roswell," he wrote in his report.

A glowing disc-shaped object was witnessed to have been flying over the harbour before it crashed into the water about 200 feet from shore, then floated for a moment. RCMP were called to the scene and attempts were made to reach the object, thought to be a crashed plane.

However, they failed to reach it before it sunk into the ocean, leaving a thick yellow foam.

Another example Rutkowski considers more compelling than Roswell is from Wallaston Lake, Sask., where a fragment from a "space vehicle" was found and taken to the National Research Council of Canada in Ottawa. One of the pages of RCMP documents is titled: "U.F.O. Found in Northern Saskatchewan."

Manitoba had an incident in 1792 in Thicket Portage "when something fell to earth that sounded like it was a massive jelly, according to explorer David Thompson," Rutkowski said.

The brilliant object broke into many luminous pieces after hitting the river ice, Thompson noted in his diary. When he went to see the hole in the ice the object should have made, there was no sign of impact.

"If he says that happened, we can be fairly sure that it actually did happen," Rutkowski said, noting Thompson was a respected explorer who wrote extensively about his discoveries in Manitoba.

The most famous Manitoba UFO case happened in May 1967 at Falcon Lake. Stephen Michalak claimed he witnessed a UFO land and take off again while prospecting in the Whiteshell Provincial Park, but this incident isn't included in Rutkowski's report as it wasn't considered a crash.

Unlike the U.S., records of UFO incidents in Canada are easy to obtain, Rutkowski said.

"In Canada, there's a tremendous amount of information that's been available since the 1940s on objects seen in the sky and crashing," he said.

"It's good that we have relative open access to information."

More than 50 years ago, before man had ever set foot on the moon, the United States military hatched a daring plan to best the Soviet Union with a secret spy base on the lunar surface, dubbed Project Horizon.

The Project Horizon study was declassified by the National Security Archive last week, on the 45th anniversary of Apollo 11’s historic moon landing, as io9 reports, and is a fascinating look into a cold war mentality that placed victory over the Soviet Union above all else. Project Horizon was originally published in 1959, and at over 100 pages long, it details a plan to construct a “moon-to-earth surveillance system,” that would allow “communications with and observation of the earth.”

The United States military once planned to build a surveillance station on the moon.

Code named "Project Horizon," a declassified report released today on the 45th anniversary of Neil Armstrong's historic moonwalk outlines the military's detailed plans to install a moon-to-Earth surveillance system that would have been used for "facilitating communications with and observation of the earth." The report that was originally published in 1959 exceeds 100 pages.

Project Horizon also included a proposal to build a moon-based weapons system that would have allowed the military to launch offensives from the moon towards Earth and even into outer space.

The declassified documents also reveal that the military attempted to investigate the effects of detonating a nuclear weapon on and in the vicinity of the moon.

Although no such detonation occurred, the report tries to speculate the effects nuclear radiation would have had on alien lifeforms.

Another declassified report entitled "The Kidnapping of the Lunik" details how American operatives stole and later returned a Soviet space capsule called the Lunik during a Soviet exhibition tour in order to gather intelligence on Soviet space capability.

SLIDESHOW: Apollo 11 Anniversary

WATCH: ABC News' Coverage of Apollo 11 Moon Landing

Researchers at the time advocated setting up the Project Horizon base as a permanent installation, and recommended that construction begin as soon as possible:

“The program to establish a lunar base must not be delayed and the initial base design must meet military requirements. For example, the base should be designed as a permanent installation, it should be underground, it should strive to be completely self-supporting, and it should provide suitable accommodations to support extended tours of duty.”

Some ideas haven’t changed in the past half-century. As The Inquisitr previously reported, recently discovered holes in the moon, thought to be a byproduct of lava tubes, are being considered by NASA as a pre-formed shelter for astronauts sent to establish a permanent presence on the moon’s surface.

As ABC News reports, the Project Horizon documents also reveal that the military wished to investigate the effects of detonating a nuclear device “on and in the vicinity” of the moon. The plan was to send several astronauts to the moon to scout ahead, with reinforcements to follow soon after. The astronauts would have to construct a nuclear reactor once they arrived, and would be supplied with specially outfitted tractors to handle all foreseeable construction needs. The military even considered launching poultry and fish to the base, as sources of food for the 12 astronauts that would staff the moon base.

While scientists conceded that the technology didn’t exist to implement Project Horizon at the time, they nonetheless believed that it was only a matter of time before a permanent moon base was a fact of life:

“Based on present knowledge, the study has concluded that it is technically feasible to establish a manned base on the moon. “Technically feasible” is not meant to imply that the equipments are available, or the techniques are completely known.”

Scientists Develop Acoustic Levitation Device That Levitates Objects Using Sound Waves

By: Nidhi Goyal

We hear sounds all around us all the time, but we can’t actually touch them.

The only exception is when we can think of it as a physical presence, as the vibrations that sounds create in other objects.

The idea that something so intangible as sound can lift or move material without having to touch anything seems unbelievable. But acoustic levitation does just that and uses sound waves to handle dangerous and fragile materials without contact.

A team of researchers at the University of Bristol, England called Bristol Interaction Group (BIG) have invented a sonic screwdriver gauntlet (or GauntLev) by utilizing the properties of sound waves. The Gauntlet puts acoustic levitation in the palm of your hand using wearable acoustic levitators.

Image courtesy Youtube

Apart from the main device, GauntLev, BIG has also developed a ‘Sonic Screwdriver’ and ‘Ultra Tongs’ that levitate small particles in mid-air using acoustic levitation. The devices can be used manually but for better stability and accuracy, the team has also designed it to work with a computer.

Currently, BIG can levitate small objects, but the plans for the future could revolutionize the production and transportation of dangerous and fragile materials.

Amazing International Space Station footage shows 'fireball-like UFO streaking through space'

BY KEYAN MILANIAN

The footage purportedly shows a UFO coming into shot behind the ISS and was reportedly captured on the unit's live feed on Thursday

This incredible footage is said to show a UFO speeding through space close.

Captured by the International Space Station's base's cameras, the clip has been released on Facebook - and conspiracy theorists are torn over what it shows.

Posted by UFO investigators Secure Team 10, it has had more than 5,500 views.

But commenters have clashed over whether the images show an alien craft.

Commenting on the film, Tyler Glockner, from Secure Team, said: "This amazing piece of ISS footage that was just emailed to me a few minutes ago has got me very excited.

YouTube/secureteam10

UFO caught on ISS live stream

"We have posted a lot of ISS videos showing these UFOs up there."

Read more: Is where you live vulnerable to an outbreak of super-gonorrhoea?

He goes on to explain how a source had been rewatching recorded ISS live stream footage, recorded on Thursday, and came across the inexplicable clip.

Tyler adds: "He says he sees what looks like a fireball of some sort streak in behind ISS.

YouTube/secureteam10

UFO caught on ISS live stream

"There is this bright object which cannot be a fireball because there's no air in space, hence there cannot be any fire.

"It comes out of the darkness of space, flies up behind the ISS and we can actually see just before it disappears some red lights shining on the ISS.

"When the ISS finally comes into view of the sun and you can see the Earth beginning to show underneath it and you can see in the exact spot where this object appears there is nothing there."

But some YouTube users were unconvinced, claiming the UFO was in fact a meteor.

One, Neil Conafray, wrote: "Looks like a view from the ISS of the meteorite exploding over Arizona."

While another said: "2 times last year I went to the live feed of the I.S.S. and both times within 15 mins or so... I seen a ship coming into view of the camera one was unbelievable and they cut the feed."

Alien Invasion Every 3600 Years – We Are Not Alone

(Before It's News)

Dan Flynn: Have aliens reported throughout history? Have there been reports of spherical UFO’s in Egypt, thousands of years ago? Did the fill the sky and scorch the pyramids, and most of the surface of the planet earth? Are they returning?

In trying to make the videos’ shorter, I dare say, jam packing them full of information takes a lot more time than I expected. Made for content. Every 3600 years an alien race invades earth? What do you think?

The evidence in history seems to imply just such the further back you look. Leave a comment below, and let the debate begin.

Professor Paul Springer from the U.S. Air Command and Staff College was authorized by his employers to discuss military plans to respond to an alien invasion.

Springer responded to questions by an Australian Television program exploring possible responses to an alien invasion that aired on Easter Sunday.

In the segment titled “U.S. military making plans for an alien invasion,” he discussed the implications of humanity being confronted by an extraterrestrial threat. Springer’s comments echoed the sentiments by Professor Stephen Hawking in April 2010 that advanced extraterrestrial life is likely to be ‘predatory‘, and humanity needs to be prepared for contact with hostile off-world visitors.

Furthermore, Springer’s comments reveal that a 2006 book titled An Introduction to Planetary Defense – A Study of Modern Warfare Applied to Extra-Terrestrial Invasion, written by a number of defense contractors, may in fact contain many aspects of the Pentagon’s classified plan.

Most importantly, Springer’s comments confirm for the first time that the Pentagon has drawn up contingency plans for an extraterrestrial invasion.

In the alien invasion TV segment, Springer was asked: “What do you think would be the alien plan? What would they do first?”

He responded: 

That really depends on why they are here in the first place. If they are here for the extraction of a specific resource, for example, they might just want to eliminate any resistance that might block them from their objective.

If, on the other hand, their goal was actual occupation and conquest, then they would probably have to prioritize anything they perceive as a threat to their own dominance.

So, they would probably start by wiping out as many communications networks as possible and eliminating as many weapons that might represent some form of threat either to them, or to the resources they are trying to extract.

So they might very well want to counter every nuclear weapon, not because it represented a threat to them, but because it might destroy whatever they’re here to collect.

Significantly, Springer addresses how the Pentagon would view extraterrestrial interference with nuclear weapons.

Aliens would interfere with nuclear weapons not because they are dangerous to life here or elsewhere, but because nuclear weapons are a threat to what the aliens wish to collect from Earth.

It has been well documented that for 60 years or more, UFOs have been monitoring nuclear weapons facilities, and in some situations have actively interfered with nuclear weapons. Many UFO researchers have interpreted this as a sign that extraterrestrials were trying to warn humanity of the global threat posed by nuclear weapons.

Indeed, numerous individuals claiming to have been contacted or abducted by extraterrestrials since the early 1950s have made a similar point. Springer’s comments reveal the contrasting conclusion drawn by the Pentagon in their planning scenario.

Springer is then asked: “Wouldn’t it be a strange situation if humanity had to band together, fighting alongside Russia, or I guess, the Taliban?”

He responded: 

It would, but keep in mind that many of the greatest civilizations in human history have been formed, basically, to counter a common enemy. When you look at the great world powers of the globe today, you find a lot of them formed because of the fear of a common enemy.

Significantly, this echoes the same sentiment drawn by former President Ronald Reagan at a famous speech at the UN General Assembly in September 1987:

In our obsession with antagonisms of the moment, we often forget how much unites all the members of humanity. Perhaps we need some outside, universal threat to make us recognize this common bond. 

I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside of this world. And yet I ask – is not an alien force already among us?

Reagan’s last question reveals that he did not believe that an alien invasion scenario was something that lay ahead in future decades.

It was a contingency humanity had to grapple with in the immediate moment – an extraterrestrial presence was already among us. Global unity was an imperative to deal with all the implications of such a presence! It appears that Reagan was secretly briefed about extraterrestrial life, and some of the threats this posed to humanity.

Was he really warning the world about classified alien secrets withheld from the global public? Not so fast according to reporters such as Alex Jones and Kurt Nimmo.

They believe that the alien invasion scenario described by Springer would in fact be a false flag operation using very earthly advanced technologies to simulate an alien invasion: 

The goal would be to justify the creation of a one world government where more and more civil liberties would be lost – especially for U.S. citizens.

A false flag alien invasion scenario was first revealed by Dr Werner Von Braun, a founder of the US Apollo Space Program, to Carol Rosin shortly before the former’s death in 1977.

This gives credence to a possible agenda behind the Pentagon leaking an alien invasion plan.

The threat would be contrived, extraterrestrials aren’t real at all. What, however, would be the case if Reagan’s warning was authentic, and extraterrestrials are already here?

In such a scenario, there would be many good reasons why Jones and Nimmo are wrong, and greater global governance would be essential in dealing with advanced extraterrestrial life and technology.

Prof Springer’s revelation of classified Pentagon plans to respond to an alien invasion raises many intriguing questions.

Most importantly, Springer reveals that the Pentagon acknowledges the importance of thinking through the many national security issues surrounding the ’possible’ existence of extraterrestrial life and technology.

Whether one agrees with former President Reagan that extraterrestrials are already here and constitute a global threat, or whether the Pentagon plan is merely a ruse for a false flag event to usher in a one world government; in either case, the time for serious study of issues concerning extraterrestrial life has come.

The global media and scholarly community need to educate themselves and the public about the many political implications of advanced alien life, evidence that such life is already visiting us, and finally whether extraterrestrials are our friends or foes.

Hugh Triangle Ufo Encounter In West Virginia

(Before It's News)

HUGH UFO TRIANGLE ENCOUNTER IN WEST VIRGINIA

MAY 24, 2016  ………………….  CLENDENIN WEST VIRGINIA

What is the truth about Aliens and Extraterrestrials? Do these creatures exist out there? If they do exist, are they more advanced than humans?

Since then, humanity has looked at the stars and still wondered. If you’ve read some books on UFOs, you may be wondering why it is such a big deal for the military and governmental forces to protect the people by hiding the truth. A West Virginia witness in Clendenin, reported watching a triangle-shaped mysterious object and described as “the size of a mountain.”

The sighting was seen by the witness along with her 31-year-old son on May 24, 2016, at 9:30 p.m. At first, they noticed a ball of light streaking in from the west. Seconds later, it abruptly stopped.  For over a two-hour period, it stayed until it slowly moves towards the east. The witness started to see the sheer mass of the object after it cleared the western trees. 

According to the witness, three white lights underneath it were moving with it. The witness could see a triangular shape of the object as the moon brightened. He added that it was so big that it bears a resemblance to a mountain moving through the sky. Due to the uniqueness of the encounter, he chalked it as one of the most unexplainable things that he has ever seen. 

Clendenin is situated in Kanawha County, West Virginia with a population of 1,227. A MUFON Field Investigator is investigating for West Virginia MUFON.

What Would Happen If Humans Disappeared? What Would Happen To The Earth? June 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News

Date of video: May 24, 2016

Maker of video: #Mind Warehouse

Human beings have been spreading across earth for thousands of years. It is believed that we originated from Southern Africa around 200,000 years ago and Around 130,000 years later we migrated out of Africa and colonised pretty much the entire planet. Within these tremendous years humans have used and destroyed parts of the earth for our own benefit. 

We have invented all sorts of things to improve our own quality of life and have only recently started to worry about what our actions mean for our home planet. But what if our time is nearly up? What if the human species was wiped out, or maybe we drained the resources we use to survive and just upped and left? What would the earth be like without humans. Well it is said that one of the first things to happen if humans disappeared would be very destructive. Man kind has built 437 nuclear power plants around the world and if we left, the generators that circulate cold water around the reactors would lose power. This could lead to over heating and melt down, causing hundreds of radio active areas. Some of the air, rivers and oceans close to the reactors would be polluted with radiation for many years. But in the other areas of the world, Mother Nature would start to recover, trees and plants would be allowed to grow freely and certain animals would thrive. General livestock would struggle without human aid, and most would likely become prey for other animals. But other more wild animals become free to wander the abandoned streets of our city's and towns. Even domesticated animals would have to rediscover their wild ways. 

Monuments like the Eiffel Tower that are made of steel would start to rust and the roads would become rubble and overgrown with weeds. Many buildings would start to fall apart.

Books, photographs, electronic data would fade away, leaving little evidence that we ever existed.The natural world would take back its land. Some more hard wearing structures would likely survive over many years, maybe even some of the ancient structures would out last our modern buildings and look as if they were the last civilisation on earth. But it is still believed that even after thousands and thousands of human free years, you would still be able to find many objects that we had left behind in our legacy. 

From plastic shopping bags to frames of airplanes or even some buildings. Maybe after millions of years even a new species of animal would become dominate and evolved in to a Homo sapiens like creature. Some scientists believe that pretty much any vertebrate land animal could evolve intelligence, provided it finds the right environmental challenges that favor strategic thinking. Obviously this would not happen overnight, but it is still a possibility that with the right amount of time an animal could evolve a complex brain like our own. This would take millions of years without the presence of humans to happen, but if we can still find traces of the dinosaurs from 65 million years ago, surely parts of the human race would still exist to be discovered. 

I suppose we will never really know what will truly happen unless we left and monitored the planet. But when you look around in your day to day life and see how we have changed and shaped the planet. You do have to wonder if mother nature could ever wipe the evidence of man kind away completely.

#Mind Warehouse states: 

Today we are presenting you a video on an unusual topic. Imagine that all people suddenly disappeared from the planet. The reason is irrelevant, just imagine the result. Now we are going to tell what is going to happen after we are gone.
