BUITENAARDSE BASIS ONTDEKT OP DE MAAN ( VIDEO )

BUITENAARDSE BASIS ONTDEKT OP DE MAAN ( VIDEO )

maan.jpg

OF wij mensen ooit op de maan zijn geweest, is nog steeds onderwerp van heftige discussies. 

Dat anderen daar zeker wél zijn geweest, blijkt uit de ontdekking enkele dagen geleden van een buitenaardse basis op de Maan. 



Volgens sommigen is de Maan een soort Emmentaler gatenkaas, maar dat lijkt niet het geval. 

De maan ziet er een beetje pokdalig uit vanwege waarschijnlijk allerlei soorten inslagen die in de loop der jaren hebben plaatsgevonden op het oppervlak van de Maan. 

Daarom zien we zoveel kraters en één van die kraters heet de Tycho krater. 

Tycho is één van de bekendste inslagkraters op de maan genoemd naar de 16e-eeuwse Deense astronoom Tycho Brahe. 

Tycho heeft een diameter van 85 km en een diepte van 4850 meter. 

Tycho is een zeer jonge (ouderdom geschat op 108 miljoen jaar) en heldere krater, die goed opvalt bij volle maan. 


Het is deze volgens de Wikipedia zeer jonge krater, waarin de inmiddels bekende Youtube gebruiker Streetcap1 een bijzondere ontdekking heeft gedaan. 

Zoals op de volgende afbeeldingen te zien, bevindt zich daar iets wat verdacht veel lijkt op een complex met gebouwen.

Het is niet vaak dat er zulke gedetailleerde opnames worden gevonden en het zal dan ook waarschijnlijk per ongeluk langs de censuur van NASA zijn gekomen. 

De rechte hoeken zoals die zichtbaar zijn, kunnen uiteraard nooit iets “natuurlijks” zijn en de manier waarop ze bij elkaar staan gegroepeerd bewijst dat ze zijn gemaakt door intelligente wezens. 


 

In de jaren zestig werkte Karl Wolfe als sergeant bij de Amerikaanse luchtmacht. Hij had in die tijd een vrij hoge security clearance, maar zeker niet de hoogste. 

Hij werkte als fototechnisch specialist in de zomer van 1965 op de basis Langley Field in Virginia toen zijn baas vroeg of hij even wilde kijken bij de NSA, want die hadden wat problemen met apparatuur. 

Jarenlang heeft Wolfe gedacht dat hij naar NASA werd gestuurd om daar een klusje op te knappen, ook omdat het te maken had met foto’s die in die tijd door de Lunar Orbiter waren gemaakt. 

Wolfe zegt dat hij volkomen naïef was in die dagen en het al vreemd vond toen hij daar aan kwam dat er allemaal geleerde mensen stonden te praten die duidelijk afkomstig waren uit andere landen omdat ze allemaal verschillende talen spraken. 

Het apparaat dat door Wolfe moest worden gerepareerd moest naar een andere ruimte worden gebracht omdat de plek waar het stond niet daarvoor geschikt was. Al de vreemde mensen verlieten de ruimte en volgens Wolfe hadden ze allemaal een soort bedrukte uitdrukking op hun gezicht. 

Terwijl ze wachtten, bleef hij alleen achter met een soldaat die hem vertelde dat uit de foto’s die ze hadden ontvangen, bleek dat er zich aan de achterkant van de Maan een buitenaardse basis bevond. 

Vervolgens liet hij Wolfe de foto’s zien, waarop duidelijk hele enorme gebouwen en hoge torens waren te onderscheiden. 

Hierna volgt het verhaal van Karl Wolfe. 

 

Het mysterie of er wel of geen mensen op de Maan zijn (geweest) is hiermee niet opgelost. Wel een bevestiging dat er hoe dan ook intelligente wezens actief zijn geweest op de Maan, in het geval dit een echte getuige/klokkenluider is.

This sounds like an amazing sighting, and I have never heard about it before. Any info about tall whites helps a lot. The police officer says that they moved oddly, which the do, because the shape of their leg (from the knee down) actually goes opposite direction from ours, but some kind of holo-emitter makes it appear human like, but they still cannot mask their odd walk. 

Here is an example of a real tall white youth caught by the Google Earth camera at a Mexico pyramid. Its since been deleted by Google but still exists on the net. Notice her legs? Those are the legs of a tall white, and her size says she is under 400 years old. Above 400 they grow another meter tall, until about 700 where they die a natural aged death.

News states: 
Not many people know this, but back in 2009 a British police officer witnessed ‘Alien Beings’ inspecting a fresh crop circle in a middle of a field!

The Police Sergeant who has not been named, witnessed the event back in 2009.  The Policeman was off duty at the time when he noticed the unusual ‘Beings’ in the field.


The Police Officer pulled his car over and walked over to the field to see what was going on as he apparently had a ‘strange’ feeling about what he was seeing.  

However, as he approached the ‘men’ — who were all way over 6ft tall with long blond hair – he suddenly heard “the sound of static electricity” and the trio ran away ”faster than any man he had ever seen” so fast that it apparently almost seemed ‘unreal’.

Leaving the scene of the strange event the Police Officer jumped quickly back into his car and travelled back home to Marlborough, Wiltshire, and then contacted paranormal experts and told them he had spotted a UFO.

Not surprisingly the Police force that the Officer works for, refused to comment at the time and stated “That it was a personal matter!”


The unnamed Police Officer asked for support off a Gentleman called Andrew Russell who is a Crop Circle Investigator.


Andrew described in detail what the Police officer saw on that unusual day:

”At first he thought they were forensic officers as they were dressed in white coveralls. He stopped his car and approached the field. ‘The figures were all over 6ft and had blond hair. They seemed to be inspecting the crop. When he got to the edge of the field he heard what he believed to be a sound not dissimilar to static electricity.

Karl%2BWolfe%252C%2Bmermaids%252C%2Bpyramid%252C%2Bsphinx%252C%2BMoon%252C%2Bsun%252C%2BAztec%252C%2BMayan%252C%2Bvolcano%252C%2BBigelow%2BAerospace%252C%2BUFO%252C%2BUFOs%252C%2Bsighting%252C%2Bsightings%252C%2Balien%252C%2Bstation%252C%2Btall%2Bwhites%252C%2Btech%252C%2BDARPA%252C0511.jpg

”This crackling noise seemed to be running through the field and the crop was moving gently, close to where the noise was.

”He shouted to the figures who, at first, ignored him, not glancing at him. When he tried to enter the field they looked up and began running.


”He said; ‘They ran faster than any man I have ever seen. I’m no slouch but they were moving so fast. I looked away for a second and when I looked back they were gone.


”I then got scared. The noise was still around but I got an uneasy feeling and headed for the car. For the rest of the day I had a pounding headache I couldn’t shift.”

This strange incident happened on July 6th as the Police Officer was driving down the road.  Apparently the three very tall figures were inspecting the odd-shaped Crop Circle in the field. 

They all appeared deeply interested and analyzing the Crop Circle – was it them who made it, or possibly was it their fellow colleagues from a far!?

 Picture
The crop circle had been there in the field for a few days before this incident.

When the Police Officer walked over the unusual beings, they suddenly become ‘disturbed’ looking and ran off at speeds beyond the Officers belief! As soon as he looked away for a split second they were ‘gone’


A spokesman for Wiltshire Police said:

”The police officer was apparently off duty when this happened so we have no comment to make because it is a personal not a police matter.”

Another Crop Circle Expert, Colin Andrews, who investigated the incident alongside Andrew Russell, said he is ”convinced” by the police officer’s story and does not see any reason at all why the Officer would of made this story up!


”I am quite convinced the officer had an experience that day and one that we have not fully explored.” I think with the unusual movement of the being and the poltergeist experiences there is too much additional information to say that is something in nothing.” He said

Some have suspected that this was the Tall White Aliens that the Officer had witnessed. The Tall whites have even been acknowledged by Edward Snowden, who believes that they are very much in contact with Planet Earth and watching our every move.

Date of sighting: June 17, 2016
Location of sighting: Mexico volcano

This UFO was caught on infrared video over a volcano in Mexico last month and shows a long UFO shooting away fast from the volcano area. Although it didn't come from the volcanos mouth, it only means that aliens are now using alternate exists around the volcano to slow down the attention that they have been getting.

NASA Stream Catches A UFO Entering Into Earth’s Atmosphere

NASA Stream Catches A UFO Entering Into Earth’s Atmosphere

nasa-ufo

A massive UFO was observed on the live ISS stream entering the atmosphere of the Earth on July 9, 2016. According to the witness, who also uploaded the video to YouTube titled “UFO Enters Earth’s Atmosphere, July 9, 2016,” the UFO could be an alien craft in the sense that NASA cut live transmission as the mysterious object was about to enter Earth’s atmosphere.

The UFO hunter indicated in the video description that the apparent UFO could have been a meteor, but the video cut off when the UFO appeared to stop.

The YouTube user’s observations sparked contradicting comments among enthusiasts.

One user wrote that after a closer look, he was convinced that it was an artificial space object, such as space debris or junk, re-entering the atmosphere from orbit.

Another user agreed to the video uploader saying that if it was just a natural, identified object, then NASA could just let the streaming to continue and not cut it off.

Another UFO blogger said that the bizarre object was not a meteor or the Moon, but more likely the Chinese space station Tiangong-1 – a space station cargo ship from China. It is China’s first space station, which was launched unmanned into orbit in 2011.

Earlier in April, a NASA spokesperson denied allegations of cutting off their live feed every time a UFO or UFOs enter into the frame. The agency explained that the loss of video could be due to loss of signals from the ISS.

Was a 'creepy' UFO spotted over Devon this morning?

Was a 'creepy' UFO spotted over Devon this morning?

Is this a UFO?

A SOUTH Devon man has described the moment he spotted a UFO which 'gave him the creeps' over the town on Sunday morning.

John Mooner, who lives in Newton Abbot, spotted a bright light hanging above a nearby housing estate in at 1.20am on Sunday.

When he noticed the light, he ran to get his camera, hoping to get a better look at the object. Through the viewfinder of his camera, he could make out the object, and explained that it was like nothing he'd ever seen before.

http://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/images/localworld/ugc-images/276351/binaries/ufoo.jpg

He said: "I looked out the kitchen window and saw a bright object hanging above a nearby housing estate and thought to myself that looks strange.

"I ran to get my Nikon P900 Camera and open the window wide and lent out to get a better look at the object. Looking through the viewfinder of my camera I began to zoom in and I could see the object clearly.

"The object was definitely not any type of known aircraft. The object was glowing bright orange and had a white pulsing light on the top left side. The object was large and just hung there silently over the housing estate it gave me the creeps."

After a while of watching the object something started to happen; the shape of the object started to change as a 'tube' emerged from underneath it.

John continued: "A tube began to extend from the middle of the object and when it was fully extended it glowed with a yellowish tinge. While making my observations I had been taking photographs and managed to capture the strange unknown object.

"I then felt tired and closed the kitchen window and put the camera on the side and went to bed. In the morning I was confused to why I had gone bed. Why didn't I take more photographs, why did I go to bed?

"What is this large object? It's not a helicopter or a plane what is it?

Aliens in the 21st century: More and more people are starting to believe in UFOs again
(Credit: Wikimedia Commons)

This piece originally appeared on The Conversation.

The 1990s were a high-water mark for public interest in UFOs and alien abduction. Shows like “The X-Files” and Fox’s “alien autopsy” hoax were prime-time events, while MIT even hosted an academic conference on the abduction phenomenon.

But in the first decade of the 21st century, interest in UFOs began to wane. Fewer sightings were reported, and established amateur research groups like the British Flying Saucer Bureau disbanded.

In 2006 historian Ben Macintyre suggested in the Times that the internet had “chased off” the UFOs. The web’s free-flowing, easy exchange of ideas and information had allowed UFO skeptics to prevail, and to Macintyre, people were no longer seeing UFOs because they no longer believed in them.

Data seemed to back up Macintyre’s argument that, when it came to belief in UFOs, reason was winning out. A 1990 Gallup poll found that 27 percent of Americans believed “extraterrestrial beings have visited Earth at some time in the past.” That number rose to 33 percent in 2001, before dropping back to 24 percent in 2005.

But now “The X-Files” is back, and Hillary Clinton has even pledged to disclose what the government knows about aliens if elected president. Meanwhile, a recent Boston Globe article suggests that belief in UFOs may be growing again.

She points to a 2015 Ipsos poll, which reported that 45 percent of Americans believe extraterrestrials have visited the Earth. So much for reason.

Why does Western society continue to be fascinated with the paranormal? If science doesn’t automatically kill belief in UFOs, why do reports of UFOs and alien abductions go in and out of fashion?

To some extent, this is political. Even though government agents like “Men in Black” may be the stuff of folklore, powerful people and institutions can influence the level of stigma surrounding these topics.

Sociologists of religion have also suggested that skepticism is countered by a different societal trend, something they’ve dubbed “re-enchantment.” They argue that while science can temporarily suppress belief in mysterious forces, these beliefs will always return — that the need to believe is ingrained in the human psyche.

A new mythology

The narrative of triumphant reason dates back, at least, to German sociologist Max Weber’s 1918 speech “Science as a Vocation,” in which he argued that the modern world takes for granted that everything is reducible to scientific explanations. “The world is disenchanted,” he declared.

As with many inexplicable events, UFOs were initially treated as an important topic of scientific inquiry. The public wondered what was going on — scientists studied the issue and then “demystified” the topic.

Modern UFOlogy — the study of UFOs — is typically dated to a sighting made by a pilot named Kenneth Arnold. While flying over Mount Rainier on June 24, 1947, Arnold described nine disk-like objects that the media dubbed “flying saucers.”

A few weeks later, the Roswell Daily Register reported that the military had recovered a crashed flying saucer. By the end of 1947, Americans had reported an additional 850 sightings.

During the 1950s, people started reporting that they’d made contact with the inhabitants of these crafts. Frequently, the encounters were erotic.

For example, one of the first “abductees” was a mechanic from California named Truman Bethurum. Bethurum was taken aboard a spaceship from Planet Clarion, which he said was captained by a beautiful woman named Aura Rhanes. (Bethurum’s wife eventually divorced him, citing his obsession with Rhanes.) In 1957, Antonio Villas-Boas of Brazil reported a similar encounter in which he was taken aboard a ship and forced to breed with a female alien.

Psychologists and sociologists proposed a few theories about the phenomenon. In 1957, psychoanalyst Carl Jung theorized that UFOs served a mythological function that helped 20th-century people adapt to the stresses of the Cold War. (For Jung, this did not preclude the possibility that UFOs might be real.)

Furthermore, American social mores were rapidly changing in the mid-20th century, especially around issues of race, gender and sexuality. According to historian W. Scott Poole, stories of sex with aliens could have been a way of processing and talking about these changes. For example, when the Supreme Court finally declared laws banning interracial marriage unconstitutional in 1967, the country had already been talking for years about Betty and Barney Hill, an interracial couple who claimed to have been probed by aliens.

Contactee lore also started applying “scientific ideas” as a way to repackage some of the mysterious forces associated with traditional religions. Folklore expert Daniel Wojcik has termed belief in benevolent space aliens as “techno-millennarianism.” Instead of God, some UFO believers think forms of alien technology will be what redeems the world. Heaven’s Gate — whose members famously committed mass suicide in 1995 — was one of several religious groups awaiting the arrival of the aliens.

You’re not supposed to talk about it

Despite some dubious stories from contactees, the Air Force took UFO sightings seriously, organizing a series of studies, including Project Blue Book, which ran from 1952 to 1969.

In 1966, the Air Force tapped a team of University of Colorado scientists headed by physicist Edward Condon to investigate reports of UFOs. Even though the team failed to identify 30 percent of the 91 sightings it examined, its 1968 report concluded that it wouldn’t be useful to continue studying the phenomenon. Condon added that schoolteachers who allowed their students to read UFO-related books for classroom credit were doing a grave disservice to the students’ critical faculties and ability to think scientifically.

Basing its decision off the report, the Air Force terminated Project Blue Book, and Congress ended all funding for UFO research.

As religion scholar Darryl Caterine explained in his book “Haunted Ground,” “with civil rights riots, hippie lovefests and antiwar protests raging throughout the nation, Washington gave its official support to a rational universe.”

While people still believed in UFOs, expressing too much interest in the subject now came with a price. In 2010, sociologists Christopher D. Bader, F. Carson Mencken and Joseph O. Baker found that 69 percent of Americans reported belief in at least one paranormal subject (astrology, ghosts, UFOs, etc.).

But their findings also suggested that the more status and social connections someone has, the less likely he or she is to report paranormal belief. Single people report more paranormal beliefs than married people, and those with low incomes report more paranormal belief than those with high incomes. It may be that people with “something to lose” have reason not to believe in the paranormal (or at least not to talk about it).

In 1973, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics surveyed its membership about UFOs. Several scientists reported that they had seen unidentified objects and a few even answered that UFOs are extraterrestrial or at least “real.” However, physicist Peter A. Sturrock suggested that scientists felt comfortable answering these questions only because their anonymity was guaranteed.

Harvard psychiatrist John Mack came to symbolize the stigma of UFO research. Mack worked closely with abductees, whom he dubbed “experiencers.” While he remained cagey about whether aliens actually existed, he advocated for the experiencers and argued that their stories should be taken seriously.

His bosses weren’t happy. In 1994, Harvard Medical School opened an investigationinto his research — an unprecedented action against a tenured professor. In the end, Harvard dropped the case and affirmed Mack’s academic freedom. But the message was clear: Being open-minded about aliens was bad for one’s career.

Reason and re-enchantment

So if Hillary Clinton is running for president, why is she talking about UFOs?

Part of the answer may be that the Clintons have ties to a network of influential people who have lobbied the government to disclose the truth about UFOs. This includes the late millionaire Laurence Rockefeller (who funded John Mack’s research) and John Podesta, the chairman of Clinton’s campaign and a long-time disclosure advocate.

But there may also be a broader cultural cycle at work. Sociologists such as Christopher Partridge have suggested that disenchantment leads to re-enchantment. While secularization may have weakened the influence of traditional churches, this doesn’t mean that people have become disenchanted skeptics. Instead, many have explored alternate spiritualities that churches had previously stigmatized as “superstitions” (everything from holistic healing to Mayan prophecies). The rise of scientific authority may have paradoxically paved the way for UFO mythology.

A similar change may be happening in the political sphere where the language of critical thinking has been turned against the scientific establishment. In the 1960s, Congress deferred to the Condon Report. Today, conservative politicians regularly challenge ideas like climate change, evolution and the efficacy of vaccines. These dissenters never frame their claims as “anti-science,” but rather as courageous examples of free inquiry.

Donald Trump may have been the first candidate to discover that weird ideas are now an asset instead of a liability. In a political climate where the language of reason is used to attack the authority of science, musing over the possibility of UFOs simply doesn’t carry the stigma that it used to.

This is the last image a Japanese satellite sent to study black holes took before it was lost

This is the last image a Japanese satellite sent to study black holes took before it was lost

black-hole-1-455007[1]

Earlier this year the Japanese Space Agency sent a $273-million satellite into space to study black holes and other celestial objects. Before being lost, the Satellite gathered data and this is these are some of the images it managed to beam back before eventually falling apart. Earlier this year, Japan launched a revolutionary and expensive satellite called Hitomi with the aim of studying black holes and other mysteries of the universe. In strange circumstances, mission specialists soon lost control over the ship. Now, experts have managed to recover some of the data and  finally see what Hitomi found out before its destruction.

Hitomi managed to obtain just three days worth of observations

Earlier this year, Japan launched a revolutionary and expensive satellite called Hitomi with the aim of studying black holes and other mysteries of the universe. In strange circumstances, mission specialists soon lost control over the ship. Now, experts have managed to recover some of the data and  finally see what Hitomi found out before its destruction.

The Japanese satellite Hitomi is an X-ray observatory that was launched by the Japanese space, JAXA, last February.

The spacecraft functioned for just over a month before contact was lost.

A series of unfortunate events caused both by human error and software malfunction caused the satellite to begin spinning out of control and despite attempts to recover it, Hitomi continued spewing its remains into space and eventually disintegrate. Ultimately JAXA issued a statement saying their $ 273 million mission was lost.

When Hitomi was destroyed, researchers announced that they had managed to recover a small fraction of satellite data that they would share with the public eventually. Now,  some of these data were published in the Journal Nature.

During the satellites short life, Hitomi had enough time to take a look at the Perseus cluster, an enormous group of galaxies gravitationally bound, located about 240 million light-years from Earth, and managed to obtain new data about how giant black holes lurking inside galaxies shape them acting as a kind of “thermostat”.

The Japanese satellite  found that the Perseus cluster includes not only ordinary matter to form galaxies, but also an “atmosphere” of hot plasma with a temperature of tens of millions of degrees, and a halo of invisible dark matter.

Previous studies, some of them dating back to the 60s, have shown that each of the galaxies in the cluster- and indeed most of the galaxies in the universe probably contain supermassive black hole at their center.

“These giant black holes are among the most efficient power generators of the Universe, a hundred times more efficient than a nuclear reactor,” says Brian McNamara,a  researcher at the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Waterloo in Canada. “The matter falling into the black hole is torn, releasing enormous amounts of energy in the form of particles at high speed and thermal energy.”

This heat is eventually released from the event horizon of the black hole, the limit of no return. The matter that remains is absorbed by the black hole, adding to its mass. The energy released heats the surrounding gas, creating bubbles of hot plasma that travel through the group, like air bubbles rising in a glass of champagne.


Black Hole Hitomi


‘The plasma can be thought of forming an enormous atmosphere that envelopes whole clusters of galaxies,’ he said.

‘These hot atmospheres represent the failure of the past – the failure of the universe to create bigger galaxies.

‘But it’s also the hope for the future. This is the raw material for the future growth of galaxies.

‘It’s the raw material that in the next several billion years is going to make the next generation of suns and solar systems. And how rapidly that happens is governed by the black hole.’

The new research sheds light on the crucial role of hot plasma in galaxy evolution.

When researchers study the formation of the structure of the universe they wonder: why is most of the gas not cooled as stars and galaxies form? The answer seems is in the bubbles created by the outbursts of energy from black holes which keep temperatures too high for such structures take shape.

Filer’s Files # 28 – 2016 Are the Ancient Nephilim our Ancestors - PART I

FF28

In special reports, this week’s files cover: Air Force’s Chief Public Relations Officer Says UFOs are Real; Are the Ancient Nephilim our Ancestors? The Missile Defense Agency and Jupiter Promises Surprises.

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Arizona, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, Washington, and Virginia.

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Argentina, Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, Germany, Indonesia,  and Wales in the United Kingdom.

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

Air Force’s Chief Public Relations Officer Says UFOs are Real

WilliamTColeman

Colonel William T. Coleman is a retired Air Force bomber pilot, former Public Information Officer for Project Blue Book, and Air Force’s Chief Public Relations Officer during the early 1970s. He was also the Producer of a series called “Project UFO” that ran on NBC for two seasons. (1978-79)

In June of 1978, while promoting his new TV show on the Merv Griffin show, Coleman spoke about a UFO sighting he had experienced while a bomber pilot in the fifties. I spoke several times to Colonel Coleman who knew a great deal about UFOs and had chased one over Georgia.

Colman states, 

“We were cruising at 10,000 feet when we spotted a target somewhere around 20,000 to 25,000 feet. It was about seven miles in front of us to our right, and we were overtaking it. It then started descending across our flight path, and I decided to check it out. Therefore, I advanced power and began closing a little faster and descending. We kept getting closer and closer and pretty soon we were within a mile of the object, flying over trees at 345 MPH.”

B-25

(The plane closed to within an eighth of a mile of the disc-shaped object.) “It was about 60 feet in diameter and 10 or 11 feet thick through the center,” he said. “It had what looked like a titanium-type finish (silver gray). I pulled up and made a hard turn that put it out of sight for roughly for four seconds. We whipped back to pull up alongside of it and it wasn’t there. I zoomed up to 1500 feet. `There it is!’ I said. It was about 2 miles in front of us going across a field leaving a red dusty trail behind it. I guessed its speed at about 170 MPH.” After another dive, the crew lost sight of the object. “We never saw it again.” Thanks to Grant Cameron Website

Note: I spoke with Colonel Colman who was quite convinced UFOs were real and had written a book that was published in Japan in Japanese and was trying to get it cleared to publish in the United States.

Are the Ancient Nephilim our Ancestors?

Colony Earth and the Dolichocephaloids

Skull

 From Museo De National. Lima, Peru

“Francis Crick, the discoverer of DNA, subscribed to the theory of intelligent design, that our universe was not simply the result of a series of chemical accidents. He states, “Life did not evolve first on Earth, a highly advanced civilization became threatened so they devised a way to pass on their existence.” The Bible refers fourteen times to giants who lived prior to the flood that were called Nephilim, or, as

Genesis, Chapter 6, describes them as those, “Who have come down, from Heaven to Earth and found the women of Earth fair and took them as wives.” Archaeologists and anthropologists have discovered a distinct “race” of people who died off during the last several thousand years, but were leaders in civilizations in Peru, Samaria, Malta, India, Ecuador, and Egypt in the past. Across every habitable continent, completely isolated cultures have practiced skull elongation for thousands of years. New DNA evidence has raised the attention of not only archaeologists, but medical scientists as well.

There are questions whether they represent a pre-human evolutionary lineage, alien intervention, or some unknown civilization. While Noah and his sons were 100% human, we are not told the same about the wives of his three sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth. What is clear is that one or more of these women were carrying the Nephilim gene. This is the source of the post-flood Nephilim. Nowhere in the Bible is it ever stated that angels once again cohabited with human women.

CaveUFOLascaux

Possible UFO painting in 17,000 year old French Lascaux Cave

If you make the assumption the UFOs in our skies represent visitors from another world the actual recorded history of mankind starts making more sense. We are provided with a detailed history of cavemen whose advanced technology was art paintings and various flint stone knives and spears. Then suddenly mankind is constructing cities including sophisticated pyramids that engineers claim could not be duplicated today. The Egyptian historical records state the gods called Ptah or Osiris who came to Earth from space gave knowledge to write and build structures was passed onto common people in a master to initiate relationship. These gods are almost always represented as having exceedingly large heads. They taught engineering and religion to the common people.  Often serving as priests and kings we discover a race of people with extremely large heads known as Dolichocephaloids.

RamsesEgypt

Ramses II at Abu Simbel’s rock bluff showing elongated heads

It happens the Martian gravity is much less than our own and that a high speed train or aircraft could easily launch into space. It also possible aliens traveled from another planet to Earth.  If we assume an expedition arrived from Mars or some other planet 5000 years ago, they would land among cavemen with limited technological ability.  Almost overnight metals were mined and forged, pottery was made, crops were planted, and writing, symbols and religion were taught to caveman. Ancient writings repeatedly claim the Gods came from space providing this education.

MarsStatue

Mars bluff showing elongated heads of statues

There is plausible logic that Akhenaten was genetically related to the visitors. Assuming the aliens were from Mars or another planet, they would likely bring a belief system, and engineering knowledge with them. On Mars we have located structures such as pyramids, symbols such as Y, E, G,^, on a regular basis. I suggest that these symbols found both on Mars and Earth suggest this knowledge was brought to Earth.

The statue shown at right was found on Mars and shows a strong similarity to Egyptian statues of the Pharaohs. The aliens with greater technological knowledge would certainly become the key leaders in the ancient world probably mating with the natural native leaders. Dolichocephalic skulls may have gradually reduced in size and prominence as intermarriage between the two continued. Royalty through the ages has declared divine right, the right of Kings to even kill their subjects.

The leaders possessing the advanced knowledge are known to us as Wira Kocha, Quetzalcoatl, Yahweh, Kukulcan, Osiris, Sargon of Agade, and Pharaohs such as Akhenaten who believed in one god. These leaders generally claimed the right to lead because they were the children of the gods and had the Divine Right to rule and choose who could live or die.  They ordered the, temples, pyramids, and cities to be constructed. These may have had a purpose unknown to us today such as a power station as proposed by mechanical engineer Christopher Dunn who reverse-engineered the Great Pyramid at Giza to discover its use. He claims the Giza Pyramid is a technological remnant of a highly advanced pre-historic civilization? His startling conclusions destroy the traditional Egyptologist notion that it was built with copper tools by a society that lacked the wheel.

Christopher Dunn sees the pyramid as the power source that fueled a great civilization using the technology of harmonic resonance. The author shows how the pyramid’s numerous chambers and passageways were positioned with deliberate precision to maximize its acoustical qualities. This may be the same technology discovered by Nikola Tesla and the solution to our own clean energy needs. I ask where did primitive man suddenly gain the social organization, technology and workmanship to build the pyramids.

DggptSawedStone

Dunn shows proof that giant stones were cut with machined tools and saws

The Island of Malta in the Mediterranean Sea has prehistoric temples, some of the most ancient on the planet, which were built to have both astronomical and religious functions. There are also subterranean temples which have certain acoustic properties and some researchers even say could have been portals to other dimensions.

The Austrian artifact collector, Klaus Dona, has been to this island to do research concerning elongated skulls in historical museums on the island. There are also underwater archaeological structures here like a passage way and an arch.

MaltaSkull

In skull samples taken from Peru, several DNA markers associated with mental capacity showed similar traits to modern humans with IQ’s of over 140. This high intelligence and large size would tend to make these people into natural leaders. These are apparent ancestors that helped improve the human race.

Missile Defense Agency

MissleDefenseAgency

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is the section of the United States government’s Department of Defenseresponsible for developing a layered defense against ballistic missiles. The agency has its origins in theStrategic Defense Initiative which was established in 1983 and was headed by Lt. General James Alan Abrahamson. Under the Strategic Defense Initiative’s Innovative Sciences and Technology Office, headed and engineer Dr. James Lonson, the investment was predominantly made in basic research at national laboratories, universities, and in industry.

These programs have continued to be key sources of funding for top research scientists in high-energy physics, supercomputing/computation, advanced materials, and critical science and engineering disciplines. The current commander is U.S. Navy Vice Admiral James D. Syring. These missiles could also be used to down UFOs and was often referred to as Star Wars. It is interesting to note that when President Reagan announced the program he offered to share it with the Soviet Union.

The Missile Defense Agency’s mission is to develop, test and prepare for deployment of a missile defense system. Using complementary interceptors, land-, sea-, air- and space-based sensors, and battle management command and control systems, the planned missile defense system will be able to engage all classes and ranges of ballistic missile threats. Our programmatic strategy is to develop, rigorously test, and continuously evaluate production, deployment and operational alternatives for the ballistic missile defense system. Missile defense systems being developed and tested by MDA are primarily based on hit-to-kill technology. It has been described as hitting a bullet with a bullet – a capability that has been successfully demonstrated in test after test.

PatiotMissile

MIM-104 Patriot Surface-to-air missile (SAM) with anti-ballistic missile capabilities

Ballistic Missile Defense Systems (BMDS) must be able to be operated in different regions of the world in order for the success of the MDA mission.

BMDS is shared with key allies and partners. During the Cold War with the Soviet Union they had produced large numbers of ballistic missiles that could strike targets in the US. William Tomkins and other engineers helped develop early Missile Defense Systems that discouraged the Soviet Union from launching an attack.

Ballistic missile systems using advanced liquid- or solid- propellant propulsion are becoming more mobile, accurate and capable of striking targets over longer distances and are proliferating worldwide.

IsraeliArrowmissle

Arrow 3, a joint effort between the U.S. and Israel was launched in January 2014

Iran currently has short- and medium- range missiles with guidance systems. Iran’s launch of a medium range, solid fuel ballistic missile demonstrates its ability to hit targets in Israel and southern Europe. Iran also successfully launched the Safir Space Launch Vehicle on Feb 2, 2009. It was then speculated that development of an ICBM was not far behind. Intelligence reports that a missile could be built sometime between 2010 and 2015 perhaps using help from Russian and North Korean technology.

North Korea currently deploys a Nodong ballistic missile capable of hitting Japan and South Korea, and is developing a new intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) which could reach Guam and the Aleutian Islands. They also successfully demonstrated the staging and separation technologies required to launch a Taepo-Dong 2 ICBM which has the capability to reach the United States. MDA divides its systems into four phases, boost, ascent, mid-course and terminal, each corresponding to a different phase of the threat ballistic missile flight regime. Each phase offers different advantages and disadvantages to a missile defense system. The geography of each defended area dictates the types of systems that can be employed, thus the flexible and layered defense approach concept should improve overall defense effectiveness. The more opportunities you have to shoot it down, the better the chance of success.

The most advanced missile system on the planet can hunt and blast incoming missiles right out of the sky with a 100% success rate — and it appears to be headed to North Korea’s backyard, according to CNN.

On the heels of last month’s purported hydrogen-bomb test and a long-range rocket launch in February, the US has apparently agreed to equip South Korea with

Thaadmissile

theTerminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile defense system,

THAAD’s protective range would almost eliminate all threats from North Korea. With its unmatched precision, Lockheed Martin’sTHAAD can equalize tensions around the world with its mobility and strategic battery-unit placement.

In order to deter North Korean provocations and further defend the Pacific region, the Pentagon deployed aTHAAD battery to Guam in April 2013.

However, after the rogue regime’s most recent launch, the US has reportedly agreed to deploy the THAAD to South Korea — which would counter almost all incoming missiles from North Korea.

The pressure to deploy THAAD is rapidly mounting, as US defense officials have cited North Korean missile developments that are attempting to build intercontinental missiles that could reach the United States.

In October, Admiral Bill Gortney, commander of the North American Aerospace Defense Command, assessed that North Korean has “the capability to reach the [US] homeland with a nuclear weapon from a rocket,” Discussions to equip South Korea with THAAD were held during South Korean President Park Geun-hye’s visit to the White House last October. The Korean Defense minister Han Min-koo said THAAD would be under the operational control of the USFK Seventh Air Force and the South Korean air force.   THAAD’s  Missiles

Activities are categorized in five “blocks”. For example, block 4.0 is “Defend Allies and Deployed Forces in Europe from Limited Iranian Long-Range Threats and Expand Protection of U.S. Homeland”. It included theUS missile defense complex in Poland to be constructed, and the European Mid-course Radar (EMR) currently located at the Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site at Kwajalein Atoll, which was to be modified and relocated to the Czech Republic. That plan, however, was scrapped by the Obama administration on September 17, 2009. Thanks to Missile Defense Agency.

Jupiter Promises Surprises

Jupiter

This photo of Jupiter was taken on September 20, 2010 when Jupiter made its closest approach to Earth since 1963. (Uranus [insert] was visible through telescopes near Jupiter.).Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. Fittingly, it was named after the king of the gods in Roman mythology. Jupiter helped revolutionize the way we saw the universe and ourselves in 1610, when Galileo discovered Jupiter’s four large moons — Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto, now known as the Galilean moons that may house various forms of life. This was the first time celestial bodies were seen circling an object other than Earth, major support of the Copernican view that Earth was not the center of the universe.

Jupiter is the most massive planet in our solar system, more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined, and had it been about 80 times more massive, it would have actually become a star instead of a planet. Its atmosphere resembles that of the sun, made up mostly of hydrogen and helium, and with four large moons and many smaller moons in orbit around it, Jupiter by itself forms a kind of miniature solar system. All told, the immense volume of Jupiter could hold more than 1,300 Earths. Thanks to Jimmy Eubanks

Sightings in the United States

Arizona Triangle

AZjun16

Phoenix – It was about 10:30 PM, and it started to storm. I had been watching clips of UFO’s forming in storms so that’s what had glued my eyes to the skies, like I always do to look for such things. A fireball or glowing object appeared and hovered. This was the first time in 40 years I had seen such a sight. I followed the ball outside in the storm and filmed until it disappeared. A half hour later my girl and I witnessed more of the same craft appearing and then floating west. The craft have appeared nightly from June 26, to July1, 2016 so far. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 Arkansas Light

ARGfeb16
Berryville — I was at a location performing duties for my job which included taking photos of subject properties on June 6, 2016. I took 16 photos of various subjects at this location and noticed that there was an object above a building in one of the photos after I had left the location.

It did not appear to be an airplane or any known aircraft. After noticing this object in the photo, I isolated the object in a photo editor and filtered the image to gain some perspective about what was in the photo. It appears to be an unidentifiable object. I did not notice this object when I was at this location but do know that there was no noise as one would expect with an airplane, helicopter, etc. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 California Light

CalifActon3ululy16

Acton — My husband and I were taking the dogs out on July 3’rd 2016 at 9:30 p.m. when we saw just South of us by the Angeles Crest Forest a very bright white light growing in intensity and then dimming. My husband saw it first and called me out excitedly to see it. We scrambled around for our video recorders but batteries were dead. We did manage to take some long exposure pictures with our manual camera, which does not show the shape but captures the movement patterns as well as the intensity of the light. No shape was apparent until my husband viewed it through his infrared night vision scope. It was a Saturn-shaped craft that appeared translucent with tentacle-like ‘legs’ similar to a jellyfish. Its surface was dull lead grey but also cloud-like at times. There were three round lights on the craft. It was 500 feet from us, and lower than any plane but then moved higher and farther away. It had no path, bouncing around, up, down, sideways, circular, and hovering. All while this intense white light grew larger and brighter, then slowly died down. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 Connecticut Lights

CTwalcot2Jul16

Wolcott — A couple was outside relaxing on their porch and noticed some fireworks July 2, 2016. They then noticed several groups of high flying yellow-red-orange objects flying rapidly to the southeast. The objects would appear and vanish in groups of two to four. Fifteen silent objects were seen in a twenty-minute period. Several photos were taken in the clear skies. The objects emitted constant light. The witnesses were familiar with helicopters and local air traffic and said that the objects were very different.

Note: A check of winds aloft showed that winds were from the Northwest in the lower 5,000 feet of the atmosphere at speeds of up to 30 MPH. The witnesses said that surface winds were very light. The movement of the objects would be consistent with flotation devices. The witnesses did not believe that the objects were Chinese lanterns. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Website

Hawaii Light

Hawaii

Honolulu –– I was sitting on a beach in Hawaii at 10 PM, just looking up at the beautiful night sky as I do often. On June 26, 2016, at about 70 degrees in the horizon over the ocean I saw a green flashing light moving in the sky. I watched it for a few minutes just assuming it was an airplane, but when it started to change direction abruptly I started to film it. I became more and more shocked at what I was seeing. There was a green flashing light, not like any green I’ve ever seen on any airplane moving in a western direction.

Then it started to move back to the east with very abrupt movements. The video appears as if I’m moving the camera, but I am not, it is the object that is moving around so radically. It made a sudden switch to a red quickly flashing light from green. It was jetting around in the sky like nothing I’ve ever seen before and finally disappeared into the Eastern Sky. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois Light

IL3Jul16Waconda

Wauconda — I was waiting for the fireworks to start on July 3, 2016, and I was looking around and something caught my eye to the left. I looked and I noticed objects floating through the sky so I picked my phone up and started filming. The reddish glowing object did not move in a straight pattern. I was not scared at all and I thought it was cool. I thought they were a fleet of UFOs and they just disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

  Maryland Triangle Close Encounter

MDedgewater29June16

Edgewater — The sighting happened a few miles south of Annapolis, MD on the early morning hours of Wednesday June 29th 2016. I had taken a vacation to Ocean City and left to go back home. I headed south on Route 2, and when I got past Edgewater I saw a very bright light in the sky. I at first thought it was a planet shining brightly, but looked more like a forward facing search light with some smaller lights around it. I kept watching low light and kept losing it behind the tree line. When I got closer to the light I saw two glowing balls of light come out of the bottom, drop down and fly off. Another ball of light dropped from the craft. I kept getting closer to the craft until I got directly under it and pulled off the road to look. It was only about 500 feet high, silent, air and took off at a high rate of speed. The craft looked like a triangle about 50-75 feet across with a large searchlight at the front and small lights at the corners facing down. I have lived near the Patuxent River Naval Air Station my entire life, where they test aircraft, and I can identify aircraft but have never seen a craft like that before. NOTE: The above image is CGI. Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ Website

New Mexico Disc

NMdeming24

Deming — My partner and I were driving Route I10 from Las Cruces to Lordsburg and spotted three bright lights in the sky at about 9 pm.

They formed a triangle – the brightest was the one to the left. Around half an hour later, we noticed that they hadn’t moved at all. We first noticed the lights as they were very bright noticing them, as they weren’t appearing to move. We didn’t know what they were. We were on holiday in America from the UK taking photos of cool road signs. We were joking that it might be aliens as I was zooming in. When I got a better look at the zoomed photo, I got a shiver and started shaking. It looked like they had flames or trails coming from them. The two less bright lights seemed to blink off and the last and brightest one shot straight up into the air at speed. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Disc

NJ

 Sea Isle City – I was heading out on my boat and was taking a picture of the sunrise on June 14, 2016.

The object was over the bay and saw it through my phone camera. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ohio Objects

OhioMiamisberg2Jul16

Miamisburg — I love to be outside on my porch and we are on the flight path of some aircraft heading into Dayton Airport and Wright Patterson Air Force Base. I used to fly when I could.
On June 23, 2016, I was outside looking at the stars and saw what I thought was an inbound aircraft, It had a red light on the right like a directional light. As a white light was to the left of the red one, I thought landing light immediately, but soon realized that it was not near bright enough. I noticed the flight path was way too low and it got really close and stopped.The white light moved slightly left, appeared to get stringy, then moved up and down rapidly making the actual shape hard to determine.
I am hollering for my son to come and he sees it make a straight line exit speeding up as it went. I was trying desperately to get pictures with no luck. The neighbor guys were sitting in their car while the craft was going almost over top of them. I asked if they saw that? He says, ” you mean that there? ” Yep it came back, flew straight and level, stopped , reversed direction and looked like it was sort of leaving a vapory string behind as it went. But the leading spot got laser red as it increased in speed. It was surreal.

Later, on July 2, 2016, in the far distance I see a red light starting to form a shape as it goes from far left to the right. They begin to travel to a distant point as they disappeared.There were some small white lights as well. I took a picture as they faded. At 11:17 pm, a white light was closer and higher up, so I take a picture but it disappeared quickly. My son asked me,why is it green? Then it came to me, some lights are incandescent some are mercury vapor. In the one photo, it may just be me, but I think I see counter rotation happening. When I took the photo all I saw was a white light momentarily move quickly and to the right and out.I believe it captures a transformation of matter or light itself into a cloaking phase shift.

 Oregon Lights

Oregon

Eugene – At 9:45 PM, on June 18, 2016, watching TV in Living room. To the right of my TV is my vaulted ceiling Dorm window. A super bright solid orange oval passes right through the window frame. A second exact same thing goes pass the window. Sure enough there was more coming from the west over the house tops. I ran back inside and pulled my wife out to see. She saw two coming at us from the west still in our direction. They were all in line and beginning to turn away towards as they neared. I asked my wife to get her cell as were still coming from the west toward us. I grabbed her phone and held the camera up way high as it flew above the trees. The shot is attached. I went back outside and my neighbor and his daughter was coming and also saw the objects as well. I called Eugene Police and 911 and asked both if anyone else reported anything. They said no. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Object

mOONbASE

I was out at the outdoor gun range 10:30 pm, I was able to see the type of cloud cover from the UFO appearing under the cloud.
No sound, just a huge white circle of light at least two football fields across. It looked like a giant light bulb. This month was the first time ever it rained every day in Dallas and Fort Worth, this was history making. I stood there looking at it thinking I am getting ready to see what no one else has ever seen. It was going to come by me very close. I was going to be able to see the front and back. I was able to see it for five seconds then the light it went off, I looked down and saw a light on the ground in front of me. I realized they saw me. I left my head light on which
was on top of my cap. I was even then more aggrieved at myself. Once I got to my camera I then said—Listen to this: ok you owe me for what you did two nights ago. I know you brought in the clouds so I could not see the moon.
The next thing the cloud cover started opening up and I said I need five minutes I then took my camera and started taping the moon. I realized it was time for me to go. I am very Lucky to have been able to see that UFO very lucky. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Fredericksburg — I was on my break at work on July 5, 2016, and was looking at the clouds before the storm. I took a picture and there was a background that appeared to be four balls of light just sitting there.  I captured the photo on my cell phone. I took my phone down and nothing was there.

Argentina

La Rinconada — The members of a family from Cutral Co claim having been able to see an unidentified flying object (UFO) for fleeting seconds not far from Junín de los Andes on February 9,-2016. They took photographs of the event, which frightened them.  The Cutral Co al Instante web portal conveyed the statements made by Verónica, one of the protagonists of the incredible story. She stopped on the banks of the Collon Cura River. Verónica says that she took a photo of a group of bikers crossing the bridge when she saw the strange object in the sty.  “I screamed; everyone looked and we saw it some 50 meters away, for an instant, just when I took the photo. After that, it was no longer there,”she explained. Their initial reaction was to run and get into the car. “We took off immediately. We shut everything because it truly frightened us,” said the resident of Cutral Co, who shared the photo that went viral over the weekend through social media. Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ Website

Australia Light Triangle

Australia

 
Mount Sheila
 — I had just left my room and was walking to work when in front of me something moving in the sky caught my eye. I observed three lights the size of stars moving in a southerly direction in formation at about half the speed of what a plane would travel at cruising altitude. The three lights were approaching a single star so I double checked to see which lights were moving by identifying the positions of the nearby stars and building structures that were in my view. I could confirm that the three lights were moving and the single star, nearby stars and the building was stationary.

I stopped walking and continued to observe the three lights for several seconds as they passed over the single star. The single star remained visible as the triangle of three lights passed over it. About ten seconds later the three lights dimmed out until I could no longer see them in the sky any more. This further confirmed that the three lights were moving independently in the sky. The sky was black with nil cloud cover with bright stars. I continued to look upwards in the same direction every now and then as I walked to my car and didn’t see it any longer. The photo attached is from a Google search but is exactly what I saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Canada Sphere and Triangle

CanadaDisc

Surrey, BC — Work colleague observed this object while traveling to work via a sky train line from Surrey on June 26, 2016.

I do not believe the UFO was visible by naked eye and only appeared on Android device Camera. Thanks to MUFON CMS

CanMartinFalls15

 Marten Falls/Ogoki Post — I’m 24 and my two friends were just sitting outside of my house having a smoke, when one of my friends noticed it. He asked me “Do you know what that is? I replied, “Yes it’s a UFO with three white lights at each corner of the triangle.” As it flew over my house, I was in awe, excited, and amazed. I knew now we weren’t alone. The UFO just hovered overhead and made no noise at all. I chased it to the top of the hill and had sight of it until went into a cloud and disappeared. The cloud was not even that big. I watch Ancient Aliens and Hangar 1 UFO files and where I am located there is mining sites not too far from here. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Czech Republic Object

CZBoskovice15

 Boskovice — I found these objects recently when looking back on photos from a trip to the Czech Republic last year. I do not remember whether or not I was aware of the objects while the photos were taken, but I do seem to remember thinking they were quite odd.

They could have been birds, or perhaps foreign objects on the lens, but all pictures before and after do not have any such objects, and the passage of time in between the photos would suggest that these objects were not birds or known aircraft. The town where these photos were taken has some history of ufos and the paranormal, including a crop circle that appeared in 2014. Thanks to MUFON CMS 

Germany Disc

Germany

Schöngeising – On July 2, 2016, as I was hiking the lands, I have seen an UFO next to the Electrosmog-tower.

The tower is there to activate chemtrails. I see UFOs there, sometimes! Please help me! Thanks to MUFON CMS

Indonesia Object

Indonesia

Tanjung, Billiton Island,–This photo comes from my friend when she took a picture of a total solar eclipse in Indonesia on March 9, 2016.

I saw something in conjunction with the position of the moon covering the sun. The object was something that is round. Who can help me explain the phenomenon or whether it is a hot-air balloon or UFO? Thanks to MUFON CMS

 UK/North Wales Triangle

UK wales6Jul16

Tywyn — I have seen the most bizarre thing this afternoon over Tywyn in Gwynnedd, North Wales on July 6, 2016. We regularly see RAF and US jets training in the mountains and valleys here during the working week, and they frequently fly something called the ‘Mach Loop’ that is a well known circuit they follow.

However, today at 12:30 pm, we heard this weird humming noise in the sky almost like electro static energy or a sub-station would make. We look out over the sea and saw this weird looking triangle shaped craft. It was moving slowly about 5-10 mph about 200 meters off the coast like just to the south of Tywyn off the beach moving in a northern direction. I was walking my dogs in the sand dunes at the time. Now I am ex RAF and I have a very good knowledge of all military aircraft, but I have never seen anything like this. It was no drone or UAV and was the size of a RAF Typhoon fighter jet. As it moved up the coastline, it dropped two bright red colored glowing spheres down into the sea and they disappeared. I quickly got this shot on my iPhone of the craft as it moved off and just after I took this image. It stopped in mid air, moved upwards and then just disappeared. I called the coastguard, but they said nothing had been reported.  I think this was a UFO because it was certainly nothing the Americans or we have in terms of military aircraft. It was intelligently controlled.  My wife and I saw this as well as two other dog walkers’ one of which called the local police to report it. I definitely thing this is a UFO or something not from this world. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Wetenschappers aan de universiteit van Harvard hebben een robot ontwikkeld die hen meer inzicht moet verschaffen in de werking van het menselijk hart. De kunstmatige pijlstaartrog, die slechts een tiende zo groot is als de echte vis, beweegt  zich voort dankzij hartcellen van een rat.

De wetenschappers hopen dat de robot nieuwe inzichten zal verschaffen in de manier waarop het hart bloed rondpompt en wat hartfalen kan veroorzaken. 

"Het blijkt dat het spierstelsel van de pijlstaatrog hetzelfde moet doen als het hart: het moet vloeistoffen rondpompen," vertelt professor Kevin Kit Parker, die het onderzoek aan Harvard leidt. 

Het team analyseerde en ontleedde de vis om te begrijpen hoe hij zich voortbeweegt in water. Vervolgens bouwden ze dit prototype, dat een gouden skelet heeft, omgeven door een laag van 200.000 hartcellen die verpakt zijn in een gelachtig materiaal dat vergelijkbaar is met de gel die gebruikt wordt voor borstimplantaten. 

De kleine, synthetische pijlstaartrog weegt tien gram en is 1,6 centimeter lang.

Volg het licht

De hartcellen werden genetisch gemanipuleerd zodat ze zouden reageren op licht. "Als we licht voor de rog houden, activeren we een elektrisch signaal in het weefsel en dat beweegt zich als een golf door het spierstelsel," aldus professor Parker. "Je krijgt een golfbeweging in de vinnen en het lijkt alsof [de rog, red.] het licht volgt." 

Iedere helft van de robot is samengesteld uit verschillende hartcellen die gevoelig zijn aan specifieke lichtgolflengtes. 

Aan de hand van de gekozen golflengte zijn de wetenschappers in staat om de robot in een bepaalde richting te bewegen.  

De onderzoekers hopen dat de robotrog kan helpen om de fysiologie van het hart te begrijpen. "Op basis van onze handboeken fysiologie gaan we ervan uit dat een hart bij elke slag hetzelfde klopt," vertelt Parker aan de BBC. "Maar als je met cardiovasculaire chirurgen praat, dan zouden ze je zeggen 'nee, het klopt altijd anders'." 

Hetzelfde laboratorium ontwikkelde eerder al een artificiële kwal.

Dwergplaneet ontdekt ver voorbij Neptunus - HLN.be

Een internationaal team van astronomen heeft een nieuwe dwergplaneet ontdekt in de buitenste regionen van ons zonnestelsel. Het object van ruwweg 700 kilometer groot, tot een echte naam is bepaald aangeduid als RR245, maakt deel uit van de gordel 'ijsklompen' ver voorbij Neptunus.

De ontdekking is gedaan met de telescoop op de vulkaan Mauna Kea op Hawaii. "De ijswerelden voorbij Neptunus geven een beeld van hoe de reuzenplaneten zijn gevormd en daarna van de zon af bewogen. Ze helpen ons de geschiedenis van ons zonnestelsel te reconstrueren. Maar al die ijzige objecten zijn erg klein en vaag. Daarom is het zo opwindend er een te vinden die groot en helder genoeg is om in detail te bestuderen'', zei de Canadese astronoom Michele Bannister.

RR245 staat tot wel 120 keer verder van de zon dan de aarde en beschrijft een sterk elliptische baan, die de komende jaren precies wordt berekend. Dan wordt ook meer duidelijk over het oppervlak en de samenstelling. Van de tot dusver bekende dwergplaneten zijn Pluto en Eris de grootsten.

STERRENKUNDE De ruimtetelescoop Hubble is er voor het eerst in geslaagd een foto te maken van de binnenzijde van de Krabnevel. De nevel bestaat uit de spectaculaire restanten van een supernova op zo'n 6.500 lichtjaren van onze aarde.

Zo'n duizend jaar geleden explodeerde er een ster in de constellatie Taurus (Stier). Het licht was zo helder dat het wekenlang zelfs overdag zichtbaar was. 

In de loop der jaren zwakte het licht af en intussen is het enkel nog met een telescoop waarneembaar. Maar de overblijfselen van de supernova vormen wel een van de meest spectaculaire objecten in onze Melkweg: de Krabnevel.

Regenboog

In de kern van de nevel bevindt zich een neutronenster - dat is een ster in het eindstadium van zijn leven - die liefst 30 keer per seconde roteert. Daardoor blaast de dode ster nog steeds leven in de materie eromheen. De Hubble-foto brengt dat op indrukwekkende wijze in beeld.

De buitengewone foto is samengesteld uit drie hogeresolutiebeelden. De snelle bewegingen van de gassen rond de ster zijn zichtbaar als een regenboog van kleuren. "Dat effect ontstaat door de beweging van het materiaal in de periode tussen één beeld en een ander", staat te lezen in een persbericht.

Complottheoreticus die in gedaanteverwisselende aliens gelooft staat in Australië voor uitverkochte zalen

Complottheoticus die in gedaanteverwisselende aliens gelooft staat in Australië voor uitverkochte zalen

Complottheoreticus die in gedaanteverwisselende aliens gelooft staat in Australië voor uitverkochte zalen

David Icke is momenteel in Australië, waar hij voor uitverkochte zalen vertelt dat 9/11 een inside job was en dat de maan een ruimtestation is. In gesprek met News.com.au stelt de 64-jarige Icke dat de aanslagen in 2001 in New York onderdeel waren van een groot plan om het volk onder controle te houden.

Hij meent dat de aanslagen zijn uitgevoerd door de Amerikaanse overheid om de oorlog tegen terrorisme te kunnen rechtvaardigen. “Hoeveel mensen weten dat op dezelfde dag, op 11 september 2001, militaire oefeningen werden gehouden waarbij vliegtuigen werden gekaapt en in een gebouw in Washington werden gevlogen?” vroeg Icke.

Verslaafd aan technologie

Toen werd gemeld dat bij het World Trade Center een paspoort van een kaper was gevonden, wist hij zeker dat het hele gebeuren in scène was gezet. “De FBI had een paspoort van één van de kapers gevonden naast één van de Twin Towers,” zei hij. “Dat is te belachelijk voor woorden. Een paspoort bestaat uit papier. Zie je die vuurbal?”

Toen Icke zijn Worldwide Wake Up Tour zaterdag begon in Perth, sprak hij uitvoerig over slimme technologie. “Waar we op den duur naartoe gaan is dat er technologie in ons lichaam wordt geïmplanteerd,” vertelde hij aan News.com.au. “Het eerste stadium: maak mensen verslaafd aan technologie die ze kunnen vasthouden. Stadium twee: draagbare technologie. Google Glass, smartwatches. Stadium drie: implantaten.”

Geprogrammeerd

Die implantaten kunnen volgens Icke worden gebruikt om het menselijk brein te beïnvloeden. Dat gebeurt volgens hem overigens al vanaf onze geboorte. “Je komt uit de baarmoeder en gelijk wordt je perceptie beïnvloed door je ouders, die al hun hele leven in het systeem hebben geleefd,” zei hij. “En al snel kom je in een systeem terecht waarin autoriteiten bepalen wat je kunt eten, wanneer je ergens naartoe mag, wanneer je mag spreken en wat echt is en wat niet.”

Je wordt als het ware geprogrammeerd, aldus Icke. En als je buiten de gebaande paden treedt, ben je vreemd of eng. Hij zegt geregeld te horen te krijgen dat mensen hem vreemd vinden. Dat weerhoudt hem er echter niet van om zijn boodschap te blijven verspreiden. Meer informatie over zijn tour is te vinden op www.theworldwidewakeup.com.

ONBEKEND OBJECT KOMT ATMOSFEER AARDE BINNEN (VIDEO)

ONBEKEND OBJECT KOMT ATMOSFEER AARDE BINNEN (VIDEO)

mm.jpg

Afgezien van alle andere misschien nuttige zaken die worden uitgevoerd in het ISS, het internationale ruimtestation, zijn de opnames van daaruit ook vaak interessant. 

Zo werd er deze week een onbekend object vastgelegd dat zich richting aarde bewoog en op het moment dat het object halt hield, deed NASA de camera uit. 



Het is wederom de bekende Youtube gebruiker Streetcap1 die weer eens iets bijzonders heeft geconstateerd. 

Dit keer is het een opname gemaakt door de camera’s op het ISS, waarbij heel duidelijk zichtbaar een vreemd onbekend object afdaalt richting de atmosfeer van de aarde.

NASA maakt zichzelf hoogst verdacht met al haar acties. 

Misschien is het object dat uit de ruimte neerdaalt richting aarde niets bijzonders; wie weet is het een meteoriet of een Chinese satelliet of iets dergelijks. 

Zoals te zien in de video, stopt het object op een gegeven moment met de afdaling. Dat is natuurlijk vreemd, maar niet alleen dat, op het moment dat het object stopt of lijkt te stoppen, verbreekt NASA de verbinding en krijgen kijkers een mededeling voorgeschoteld dat ze problemen hebben met de verbinding. 

Gezien alle eerdere pogingen van NASA om zaken vanuit het ISS verborgen te houden, vermoeden wij dat het hier toch om iets meer gaat dan alleen een meteoriet.

GELUIDSOPNAME VAN ONTMOETING TURKSE BEMANNING BOEING 737 MET UFO

GELUIDSOPNAME VAN ONTMOETING TURKSE BEMANNING BOEING 737 MET UFO

737.jpg

Er zijn opgeteld vele waarnemingen gemeld van UFO's door professionele cockpitbemanningen.

Vaak gaat het dan om verklaringen die verder niet ondersteund worden door beeld of geluid van het moment van de gebeurtenis. Als dat er wel is dan is daarmee eigenlijk uitgesloten dat er misinterpretaties zijn. 



Een klein deel uit een artikel dat we enkele weken geleden schreven: 

De waarneming van de piloten van Turkish Airlines was echter een dag later, op 20 mei 2016 tijdens een vlucht met een Boeing 737 van Bodrum naar Istanboel. 

Op een hoogte van 17.000 voet rapporteerden beide vliegers een groen licht dat hun baan kruiste en met een hoogteverschil van een paar duizend voet over hen heen vloog. Het voorval gebeurde rond half twaalf ’s nachts toen het vliegtuig bezig was met de nadering van het vliegveld van Istanboel. 

Wat de waarneming bijzonder maakt is dat beide vliegers dit zagen en dat beiden zeiden dat ze vermoedden dat ze te maken hadden met een UFO. 

Dat is iets wat in Turkije kennelijk wel kan. Daar kunnen piloten klaarblijkelijk gewoon vertellen wat ze zien, zonder dat ze bang hoeven zijn om hun baan kwijt te raken. Dit zien we KLM piloten voorlopig nog niet doen. 

De verkeersleiding zegt echter niets op de radarschermen te hebben gezien op die bewuste avond. 


De volgende foto van de twee piloten Gokhan K. en Loyal K. werd door de Turkse media gepubliceerd.


xxx

Wat ze die avond precies zagen, is te zien in de volgende reconstructie. 

 

Volgens een aantal bronnen is de volgende video een originele geluidsopname tussen de bemanning van de Turkish Airlines Boeing 737 met registratie TC-JHD en de verkeerstoren op het moment dat ze de UFO rapporteren. 

Alhoewel de officiële voertaal in de luchtvaart Engels is, wordt er waarschijnlijk in alle opwinding Turks gesproken waardoor het geheel iets minder goed te verstaan is. 

Maar, waar het om gaat, is dat we hier bewijs hebben dat een professionele bemanning van een verkeersvliegtuig dingen ziet vliegen in de lucht die er officieel niet horen te zijn.

Just an amazing eyewitness testimony about a Karl Wolfe having seen with his own eyes structure on Earths moon.  The buildings he describes match a lot of the structures that UFO researchers have been finding and reporting to the public over the years. Especially interesting is the mushroom-like buildings. Yeah...how much evidence is enough? How many eyewitnesses is enough? What status does the eyewitness have to be to be enough for the world to believe? Presidents have seen UFOs and given their testimonies, astronauts have done it too. So, is there a Schwarzschild radius for disclose?
Scott C. Waring
www.ufosightingsdaily.com 

UFO Case Book States: 
 The following account has been addressed several times before, and I have had it in my notes for quite some time. The recent interest in the Space program, and questions about our future goals in space have caused me to dust it off. I believe it will be of interest to our viewers. This extraordinary story comes to us from one Karl Wolfe. Wolfe worked for the Director of Intelligence at Headquarters Tactical Air Command, Technical Group. The fantastic events explained here occurred while he was stationed at Langley Field, Virginia. Langley Field was center for information received from the Lunar Orbiter Project. Satellite receivers from around the world waited for information from the Orbiter, and it was then channeled to Langley, where the information was transformed into photographic images, and other top-secret data. The photographic imaging was done at a secure military lab ran by NSA. In an interview for UFO magazine, Wolfe asserted that he was one of only two technicians at Langley with high enough security clearance to work with the high-tech photographic equipment which processed info from U-2 spy planes, and other military intelligence hardware. Wolfe, in his own words: ... At any rate, I was in a color lab one day when my boss, Staff Sergeant Taylor, came over to me and said that they were having a problem with some equipment on the base an it was the first lunar orbiter program, where thy had a mission to pretty much locate the first landing sites for the 1969 lunar mission for the astronauts. So he said they were having some problem with equipment over there. it was similar equipment to what we had- it was computerized contact printing equipment. He wanted to know if I would go over and take a look at it. He said to me, It's an NSA facility. At the time, I didn't Know what the NSA was--I was pretty naive. I thought he said NASA. So in my mind, for a long time I thought it was a NASA facility that I had gone to, but I remembered him saying NSA and converting it in my own mind to NASA... Wolfe claims that one day when NSA photographic equipment failed, he was called in to assist them with the critical repair work needed to keep the machines on the job. Coincidentally, Wolfe was the only individual available at the time trained in the type of equipment that had failed. He normally would be crossing lines by venturing into NSA territory. His security clearance status was raised to enable him to even enter the highly secure laboratory. Wolfe's heart raced as he entered the here-to-fore forbidden hangar that day, and he was shocked to see the frantic activity in the lab, activities carried out by individuals of many different nations. Wolfe had naturally thought that only American citizens would be in the NASA lab, but there were many individuals with guest name tags on, and obviously from foreign countries present this day, inferring that they were there on a temporary basis for some special occasion. He felt a sense of panic as to his mission. Whatever he was called in for was of the utmost importance. He was told that the equipment in question was in a nearby dark room. As he was led into the room, only the red glow of a safety light greeted him at first, but in a moment, he could make out the figure of one airman who manned the dark room. Wolfe knew that the image processing equipment would have to be removed to be repaired, and he also knew that the diagnostics on this type of equipment would take some time to finish. Arrangements were quickly made for the photographic equipment to be taken to another secure location for Wolfe to begin the painstaking task of troubleshooting the problem. As Wolfe waited for transport to arrive, he began to chat with the other airman. Wolfe carefully asked why the NASA work was being done at Langley and not NASA in Houston. It was then that he was told that all of the NASA image information was downloaded to Langley, enhanced and made into the finished photographs that were then studied by different branches of the Armed Forces. The dark room attendant began to explain to Wolfe just what all the secrecy was about. Wolfe was told that recent enhanced images had surprisingly, yet clearly shown structures on the surface of the dark side of the Moon. Structures that definitely were not created by natural means, such as meteors, or ancient collisions with other heavenly bodies. The structures were created by intelligent beings. "We discovered," the airman said, "a base of the back side of the Moon." Wolfe was obviously stunned by this extraordinary disclosure. He remembers literally "shaking" trying to take in the enormity of what he had been told. Seeing Wolfe's disbelief, the dark room attendant continued; "Yes, a base on the dark side of the Moon." Although the attendant had not actually said that the structures were not created by inhabitants of Earth, it seemed to go without saying. Wolfe was still in amazement as he was now looking down at the very photographs he was trying to envision in his mind. Bending down under the red glowing lamp, he was seeing what so very few would see. He could clearly make out geometric shapes, well organized, and well designed. Most noticeable to him were what looked exactly like radar antennas, very similar to what one could see on Earth. There was no doubt now in Wolfe's mind why the odd complement of scientists and investigators were in attendance at this place on this day. They had arrived to see and study what he was looking at now; structures made by intelligent beings on the Moon. Questions flooded his mind now; Could Russia have made these structures, putting the first flag on the lunar surface? Could this be a joint venture of some kind? If so, by whom? Americans and aliens? Whomever was the creator, Wolfe felt like he had been caught stealing, or with his hand in the cookie jar. He was NOT supposed to see these photographs. He could be arrested, or worse. He just wanted to do his job, leave, and never mention it again. Wolfe did finish the job he was commissioned to do, keeping the memories of that day dormant in his mind, and went on with his life. Wolfe, however, was haunted by the images he saw that day for many years to come. After he left the active service, his security clearance prohibited him from leaving the United States for five years, and he was sworn to keep what he had seen to himself. It would be thirty years before he told anyone about that unforgettable day. For the year that Wolfe saw the remarkable structures on the dark side of the Moon was 1965, four years before Neil Armstrong put the first footprint on the lunar surface. Or was it the first?

Glowing UFOs in Alaska Spotted by Security Guard

Glowing UFOs in Alaska Spotted by Security Guard

alaska-ufo

With the economic crisis and daily challenging obligations that take most people’s time, money, and energy, the average person is not that concerned about extraterrestrials and UFOs. However, if more attention was paid to the topic, the public may be intrigued over the relevance of the topic to the world affairs. As a matter of fact, humans would be probably shocked to uncover the misconceptions that have been spread about them intentionally.

Spotted and recorded by a security guard in Alaska, the four-minute footage shows a large brightly-glowing light flying in the clear night. The strange object glows brightly and then fades, later on, flashing before turning orange. Before it disappeared, the object fragments and a there is an appearance of a circular light zooming out. Halfway through the clip, the primary circular light divides into three smaller objects to form a perfectly shaped triangle. People who saw the object were left flabbergasted due to its odd apparition effects that are apparent in the sky.

According to one YouTube user Mike Samoyloff, the strange object looked drone at the first phase. However, as it gets closer, it appeared something different. William Cleary added that such object looks similar to the object seen in Colorado, US. The strange flashing object seems to be an odd star. Even before this sighting occurred, sightings of UFOs are very much common in secluded areas like mountainous regions of Colorado and Alaska since low light pollution makes the night sky very easy to observe.

As sightings continue to rise, and questions increase, just know that truth is always around to this worldwide phenomena. The more you are serious about this subject, the more you will realize that more and more people saw the same things, but due to lack of resources, timing or other circumstances, they were not able to get clear resolutions.

Child Witness Speaks Up About Zimbabwe UFO Encounter

Child Witness Speaks Up About Zimbabwe UFO Encounter

UFO Zimbabwe

On September 16, 1994, one of the most popular UFO encounters involving a group of children had taken place. On the outskirts of the Zimbabwe capital, around 60 children ages from 5 to 12 years were playing outside their school building when they noticed a giant spaceship and a group of smaller craft over them.

When the spacecraft landed on one of the sides of their playground, the children claimed to have seen strange beings from the ships which approached them. The children estimated the entire encounter lasted approximately 15 minutes.

One of those children was a young student named Emily Trim. She was at the Ariel primary school close to the town of Ruwa in the country. Until today, Emily says the incident still affects her. Emily stated that she was just a few feet away from the strange beings, which she believed gave her messages.

She has been making painting and drawing of images that she believes manifestations of messages she acquired.

Emily recalled that she was playing with other schoolchildren during recess when they heard a high pitch frequency sound. They then saw a flash and a craft. Two beings were reportedly hopping along beside Emily and her friend Lisa. These entities looked curious and somewhat mimicked them.

All of a sudden, they were in front of the children – about arm’s reach. The children were frozen, and Emily claimed that telepathic images began across her face. She described the encounter as communication through the eyes.

With the help of X-ray videos, scientists have developed a new robot that mimics the way salamanders walk and swim.

The amphibious machine could shed light on the evolutionary leap that vertebrates made from the water to the land, the researchers said. The salamander-inspired robot could also one day be used for search-and-rescue missions or inspection operations, the scientists added.

In general, scientists investigate animal locomotion for insights that could, among other things, help people recover from devastating losses of mobility, said study senior author Auke Ijspeert, a bioroboticist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne. [The 6 Strangest Robots Ever Created]

Increasingly, scientists are creating robot copies of animals to perform such investigations of animal locomotion. One of the benefits of using robots is that the machines' actions are relatively easy to repeat, Ijspeert and his colleagues said. In addition, researchers can tinker with robot shapes in a methodical way, and the bots can perform movements that are unnatural or dangerous for animals, the scientists added.

The researchers focused on salamanders to shed light on the evolution of animal locomotion. "Salamanders have a body structure that is very close to the fossils of the first terrestrial vertebrates — that is, the first animals that switched from swimming to walking," Ijspeert told Live Science.

To create robo-salamanders, the researchers began by studyingPleurodeles waltl, a salamander about 7 inches (18 centimeters) long that moves both on land and in the water. The scientists took X-ray videos of two P. waltl specimens from the top and sides, tracking up to 64 points along the skeletons of the salamanders as they performed a variety of motions, such as walking on the ground, crawling underwater and even swimming.

The scientists then used a 3D printer to manufacture the skeleton of the robot. Onto this machine, they added 27 motors and a waterproof dry suit that was tailor-made to keep the robots' electronics from getting wet.

The so-called Pleurobot has fewer bones and joints than real-life salamanders. For instance, whereas the real amphibian has 40 vertebrae, the robot has only 11 segments along its spine mimicking vertebrae. [Super-Intelligent Machines: 7 Robotic Futures]

Still, the researchers said Pleurobot could imitate many salamander movements, especially at the limbs. This is because during the design of Pleurobot, the research team's computer models identified the minimum number of motorized segments needed to copy salamander motions, as well as the optimal placement of these parts along the robot's body.

The researchers have built salamander robots before. However, "what excites me most about Pleurobot is that for the first time we can test behaviors with a physical body that has the ability to move like the real animal, as never before," Ijspeert said.

"The robot can serve as a scientific tool to investigate how a newer mode of locomotion, walking with limbs, can be added to an older mode of locomotion, swimming," Ijspeert said. "Like the real salamander, the robot is able to perform both modes of locomotion. Both involve body undulations, but with different properties. During swimming, the undulations travel along the body like in lampreys and eels, with limbs folded backwards, while during walking, they stay in place and are well-coordinated with the limb movements in order to optimize forward speed."

In addition to providing insights on the evolution of animal locomotion, Pleurobot may also show how robots can move well in disorderly environments, Ijspeert said. "With improved control and sturdier mechanics, I hope to see Pleurobot helping in search-and-rescue scenarios in the near future," he said.

The scientists detailed their findings online June 29 in the journal Interface.

Red Planet Impact: Huge Moons May Have Crashed Into Mars

Red Planet Impact: Huge Moons May Have Crashed Into Mars

Mars' two moon,s Phobos (shown here) and Deimos, may have formed from a ring of debris around the Red Planet. Larger moons formed in the same debris ring may have crashed into Mars.

The moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos, may be the only survivors of a giant impact that created many short-lived, but now-absent moons around the Red Planet, a new study finds.

Phobos and Deimos are both small for moons — about 14 and 7.7 miles (22.5 and 12.4 kilometers) wide, respectively — and sort of potato-shaped. Compared to other satellites in the solar system, they look more like asteroids. As a result, astronomers previously hypothesized that these moons were asteroids captured by Mars' gravitational pull.

But if that were the case, previous research suggested that Phobos and Deimos would have relatively irregular orbits. In reality, these moons have nearly circular orbits positioned near the Martian equator. [Photos of Mars' Moon Phobos Up Close]

This diagram shows the collision model for the formation of Mars' two moons. A giant collision (top left) creates a disk of material around Mars (top right), and large moons emerge from the disk of material. More moons form. Eventually, the large moons fall back into Mars, and two small moons remain.

Another possible origin story for the Martian moons is that they coalesced from the debris of a giant impact, similar to the one largely thought to have formed Earth's moon. This rubble would have first formed a ring around Mars, and as moons emerged from this ring, they would have ended up with similarly circular orbits. However, this possibility raises the question of why Mars would end up with two moons instead of a single moon like Earth did, according to the new research paper.

To learn more about the potential origins of Phobos and Deimos,study lead author Pascal Rosenblatt, lead author on the new study, and a planetary scientist at the Royal Observatory of Belgium in Brussels, and his colleagues investigated scenarios "left on the side until now," Rosenblatt told Space.com. "I rapidly discovered they were left not always for justified reasons."

The scientists focused on the huge impact that previous research suggested created the gigantic Borealis basin in the northern lowlands of Mars, which covers two-fifths of the Red Planet's surface. Prior work suggested that this basin is an impact crater, created when an impactor about 1,200 miles (2,000 kilometers) wide struck Mars, generating a ring of debris around the Red Planet with a mass of about 110 quadrillion tons (100 quadrillion metric tons), or about 10,000 times the combined mass of Phobos and Deimos.

The research team's computer models suggested that, over time, in the inner part of this debris ring where the rubble was most densely packed, large moons up to hundreds of miles in diameter would have clumped or accreted together. In contrast, in the outer part of the debris ring, dust and rocks were thinly dispersed, making it difficult for this material to accrete into moons.

However, the scientists found that gravitational tugs from one or more large moons from the inner debris ring could have stirred up rubble in the outer ring, shepherding rock and dust to form smaller outer moons, such as Phobos and Deimos. The researchers calculated that after about 5 million years, Mars' gravitational pull would have doomed the other moons, sending them crashing to the Red Planet's surface and leaving Phobos and Deimos as the sole survivors.

"Our results pave a new path to re-understand the Martian system in a context of formation similar but not identical to [that of] our own moon," Rosenblatt told Space.com.

After a large moon forms from the disk of material around Mars (following a collision with a second body), the gravitational influence of that large body spurs the formation of smaller moons, like Phobos and Deimos.

If a giant impact did create the Martian moons and the Borealis basin, that might help explain many other aspects of early Martian history, such as how Mars got its current rate of spin and lost its atmosphere and surface water, Rosenblatt said.

Although the orbit of Deimos is stable, previous research found that Phobos will one day crash against Mars as well. Indeed, a 2015 study found that Phobos already has stretch marks from the Red Planet's gravitational pull.

This model suggests that Phobos and Deimos are composed of a mix of material from Mars and the impactor that created the Borealis basin. Future research can test this model by returning samples from Phobos or Deimos to Earth for study, Rosenblatt said. He noted that Japan's space agency, JAXA, and the European Space Agency (ESA) are considering missions to these moons that "could be launched as soon as 2022 or 2024."

The scientists detailed their findings online July 4 in the journal Nature Geoscience.

Cosmic Fireworks: Hubble Snaps Stunning Photo of 'Skyrocket' Galaxy
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured this image of the dwarf galaxy Kiso 5639, which from this angle resembles a skyrocket, with a blazing head and a long, star-studded tail.

The Hubble Space Telescope has captured a stunning view of a fireworks display blazing up in deep space.

The celestial show comes courtesy of the dwarf galaxy Kiso 5639, which lies 82 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Ursa Major and hosts a frenzy of star birth.

"The dwarf galaxy is shaped like a flattened pancake, but because it is tilted edge-on, it resembles a skyrocket, with a brilliant blazing head and a long, star-studded tail," officials with the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, which operates Hubble's science program, wrote in a statement.

The majority of Kiso 5639's star-forming action is taking place in the galaxy's head, which is about 2,700 light-years wide. This ramped-up star birth has apparently been triggered by the accretion of gas in this region from surrounding space, researchers said.

The dwarf galaxy's head also features a number of large "holes," which are cavities in the gas blasted out by powerful supernova explosions.

Elongated galaxies such as Kiso 5639 are known as "tadpoles." There were much more abundant in the universe's early days than they are today, scientists said.

"I think Kiso 5639 is a beautiful, up-close example of what must have been common long ago," Debra Elmegreen, of Vassar College in New York, said inthe same statement. "The current thinking is that galaxies in the early universe grow from accreting gas from the surrounding neighborhood. It's a stage that galaxies, including our Milky Way, must go through as they are growing up."

Elmegreen is lead author of a new study that's based on observations of Kiso 5639 Hubble made with its Wide Field Camera 3 instrument. The paper has been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal.

The new photo, which was released on June 28, combines Hubble images taken in February 2015 and July 2015.

How Can the Universe Expand Faster Than the Speed of Light?

How Can the Universe Expand Faster Than the Speed of Light?

How Can the Universe Expand Faster Than the Speed of Light?
As dark energy causes the universe to expand ever-faster, it may spur some very distant galaxies to apparently move faster than the speed of light. This Hubble Deep Field Image shows some of the most distant galaxies ever observed.

Paul Sutter is an astrophysicist at The Ohio State University and the chief scientist at COSI Science Center. Sutter is also host of the podcasts Ask a Spaceman and RealSpace, and the YouTube series Space In Your Face. 

How can the universe expand faster than light travels?

It seems like it should be illegal, doesn’t it? Over and over (and over and over) we're told the supreme iron law of the universe: Nothing — absolutely nothing— can go faster than the speed of light. Done. Nothing further needs to be said about the issue.

And then come the astronomers, always excited by the chance to mess up your comfort zone. They come barging in with a simple observation: Some galaxies are moving away from us…wait for it…faster than the speed of light. What gives?

First off, it's important to note that we live in an expanding universe. Every day the galaxies get farther apart from each other — on average. There are slight motions on top of that general expansion, leading to instances such as the Andromeda Galaxy heading on a collision course for the Milky Way. But in general, in the biggest of pictures, the galaxies are getting farther away from each other.

A key feature of this expansion is how uniform it is. Imagine a bunch of folks standing around the edges of a stretchy piece of fabric, tugging at it. Let us assume they're choreographed well and are able to walk backward and pull at the same rate. You, standing in the middle, would correctly observe that your "universe" is expanding: any objects placed on that fabric would slowly move away from you.

Because stretchy stuff is stretchy, the objects on the fabric close to you would appear to move away with some speed, but the farther objects would appear to move faster. Even though the folks doing the pulling are moving at a constant speed, the apparent stretch changes with distance. I swear this is true; you can even try it for yourself at home!

Now, let's jump to the universe. It's as if a bunch of folks are at the edge of the cosmos, gently tugging at the fabric of space-time, stretching it. Edwin Hubble was the first to measure the expansion rate. The number he got was way wrong, so I won't bother mentioning it, but good on him for trying. The more modern value is 68 kilometers per second per megaparsec, plus or minus a couple, but close enough.

I know, I know. You were probably following along just fine until that odd "per megaparsec" popped up. It's a distance: One megaparsec is 1 million parsec, which is 3.26 million light-years.

It means that if you look at a galaxy 1 megaparsec away, it will appear to be receding away from us at 68 km/s. If you look at a galaxy 2 megaparsec away, it recedes at 136 km/s. Three megaparsec away? You got it! 204 km/s. And on and on: for every megaparsec, you can add 68 km/s to the velocity of the far-away galaxy.

So it's easy enough to compute: At some point, at some obscene distance, the speed tips over the scales and exceeds the speed of light, all from the natural, regular expansion of space.

Yes, the movement of that galaxy can be interpreted as a "speed": you can measure the distance to it, wait awhile (to be fair, a really, really long while), and measure it again. Distance moved divided by time equals speed, and I guarantee you that the speed you measure can be faster than light.

No, this isn't a problem. [Watch as I explain in this video.]

The notion of the absolute speed limit comes from special relativity, but who ever said that special relativity should apply to things on the other side of the universe? That's the domain of a more general theory. A theory like…general relativity.

It's true that in special relativity, nothing can move faster than light. But special relativity is a local law of physics. Or in other words, it's a law of local physics. That means that you will never, ever watch a rocket ship blast by your face faster than the speed of light. Local motion, local laws. 

But a galaxy on the far side of the universe? That's the domain of general relativity, and general relativity says: who cares! That galaxy can have any speed it wants, as long as it stays way far away, and not up next to your face.

It goes deeper than this. Concepts like a well-defined "velocity" make sense only in local regions of space. You can only measure something's velocity and actually call it a "velocity" when it's nearby and when the rules of special relativity apply. Stuff super-duper far away, like the galaxies we're talking about it? If it's not close, it doesn't count as a “velocity” in the way that special relativity cares about.

Special relativity doesn't care about the speed — superluminal or otherwise — of a distant galaxy. And neither should you.

NASA’s Supercomputer Upgraded to Solve the Origin of Stars

NASA’s Supercomputer Upgraded to Solve the Origin of Stars

nasasupercomputersocial-750x300-1468184236.png
IN BRIEF

NASA's supercomputer Pleiades has been upgraded to help it run higher simulations that could shed light on the origin of stars. And they've got even bigger plans for the future.

PLEIADES UPGRADED

One of the most powerful computers in the world, NASA’s Pleiades, just got a massive upgrade. “Another 14 racks containing Intel Broadwell processors were incorporated into Pleiades on July 1, bringing the total number of Broadwell racks to 28 and increasing the theoretical peak performance of Pleiades from 6.28 to 7.25 petaflops,” they reported on their website.

Astrophysicists at the University of California, Berkeley, and Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (LLNL) need all the computing power they can get in order to run simulations that will lead to a more profound understanding of the origin of stars, and star clusters in our galaxy and beyond.

The NASA Advanced Supercomputing (NAS) facility at Ames Research Center combines data from the Hubble Space Telescope as well as other observatories with the capabilities of Pleiades, which runs on state-of-the-art 3D code ORION2.

“Our simulations, run on Pleiades and brought to life by the visualization team at the NAS facility at Ames, were critical to obtain important new results that match with Hubble’s high-resolution images and other observations made by a variety of space and Earth-based telescopes,” says Richard Klein, adjunct professor at UC Berkeley and astrophysicist at LLNL.

Watch this simulation of the evolution of a giant molecular cloud over 700,000 years, made possible by the Pleiades.

“Without NASA’s vast computational resources, it would not have been possible for us to produce these immense and complex simulations that include all the output variables we need to get these new results and them compare with observations,” Klein explained.

Pleiades

MORE UPGRADES TO COME

According to NASA, ORION2 has been consistent thus far. “The ORION2 simulations incorporate a complex mix of gravity, supersonic turbulence, hydrodynamics (motion of molecular gas), radiation, magnetic fields, and highly energetic gas outflows. The science team conducted many independent tests of each piece of physics in ORION against known data to demonstrate the code’s accuracy.”

To go further with their study, Pleiades has been upgraded in order to run higher resolution simulations of star formations, which could also help shed light on planetary formation.

“Higher resolution in the simulations will enable us to study the details of the formation of stellar disks formed around protostars. These disks allow mass to transfer onto the protostars as they evolve, and are thought to be the structures within which planets eventually form,” said Klein.

And based on their statement, the aforementioned upgrad es definitely won’t be the last for Pleiades: “Achieving this goal will require at least double the amount of processor time on Pleiades and several hundred terabytes of storage over the next couple of years,” NASA states.

Dulce, New Mexico is not about aliens…..it’s about humans and a lingering problem that has been kept from the public

Dulce, New Mexico is not about aliens…..it’s about humans and a lingering problem that has been kept from the public

maxresdefault

WATCH THE FOLLOWING VIDEO:
Underground nuclear explosion near Dulce, New Mexico in 1967:

It’s about the likelihood that the government conducted tests on radiation by selectively choosing particular cows in the Dulce area, beginning in the mid 1970s. This type of research may have involved analyses of certain organs and tissues and may also have involved clandestine operations utilizing some prototypes of unmanned aerial vehicles or even unmarked helicopters.

But more important than that, there is a lingering problem that must be dealt with, i.e., the lingering physical effect on Native Americans from that 1967 experiment, as one can see from the high rate of cancer as well as problems withinfertility among women in the Dulce area. This type of condition may continue through the next generation of residents that were affected.

This issue must come out in the open.

NASA's New Horizons Pluto probe isn't done exploring the far outer solar system just yet.

NASA has approved a mission extension for New Horizons, which performed the first-ever flyby of Pluto in July 2015. The spacecraft is now set for a Jan. 1, 2019 flyby of a small object called 2014 MU69, which lies about 1 billion miles (1.6 billion kilometers) beyond Pluto in the dark and frigid Kuiper Belt.

"The New Horizons mission to Pluto exceeded our expectations, and even today the data from the spacecraft continue to surprise," Jim Green, NASA’s Director of Planetary Science, said in a statement Friday (July 1). "We’re excited to continue onward into the dark depths of the outer solar system to a science target that wasn’t even discovered when the spacecraft launched." [Destination Pluto: NASA's New Horizons Mission in Pictures]

Though 2014 MU69 and Pluto occupy roughly the same realm of space, they are very different objects. For example, Pluto is 1,474 miles (2,372 km) wide, whereas 2014 MU69 is thought to be just 13 to 25 miles (21 to 40 km) across.

"This places [2014 MU69] in a key intermediate size regime to better understand planetary accretion," New Horizons principal investigator Alan Stern wrote in a blog post in April, when the New Horizons team officially submitted the mission extension proposal. "And given its 4-plus-billion-year existence in cold storage so far from the sun, MU69 will be the most pristine object ever visited by any space mission."

New Horizons should come within 1,900 miles (3,000 km) of 2014 MU69 during the 2019 flyby, Stern wrote — about four times closer than the probe got to Pluto during last year's historic encounter.

"If I do say so myself, the flyby of MU69 would be a landmark event, shattering all distance records for deep-space exploration, and yielding an impressive scientific bounty," added Stern, who's based at the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

NASA’s Dawn Spacecraft Completes Primary Mission

https://youtu.be/lGo4xiBfz_o

While New Horizons will keep zooming outward, NASA's Dawn spacecraft will stay put at the dwarf planet Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt, agency officials announced today.

Dawn's primary science mission just ended, and team members hadproposed sending the probe on to study an asteroid in the belt called Adeona. But NASA nixed that idea.

“The long-term monitoring of Ceres, particularly as it gets closer to perihelion — the part of its orbit with the shortest distance to the sun — has the potential to provide more significant science discoveries than a flyby of Adeona," Greensaid in the same statement.

A visit to Adeona would have marked the third cosmic body studied up-close by Dawn, which also orbited the protoplanet Vesta from July 2011 through September 2012. The spacecraft has enough fuel left to keep operating at Ceres through early 2017, mission team members have said.

NASA has also approved mission extensions though fiscal year 2018 for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter; Mars Odyssey Orbiter; MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN) orbiter; the Opportunity and Curiosity Mars rovers; and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, agency officials announced Friday. NASA has also greenlit further support for the European Space Agency’s Mars Express orbiter mission.

These decisions were based on a report by the 2016 Planetary Mission Senior Review Panel, NASA officials said. The extensions are all contingent on the availability of resources, which will be determined by budget processes.

The Possible Reality of Artificial Gravity

The Possible Reality of Artificial Gravity

WATCH-Could-we-actually-create-artificial-gravity-A-750x300.jpg
 NASA
IN BRIEF

The prospect of artificial gravity on space stations is actually possible, but highly expensive and resource-demanding

MAKING SCIENCE FICTION, FACT

Working to make astronauts lives easier and less health damaging is a pretty big goal for NASA. The real problem is actually limiting the effects of zero gravity on the human body. Science Fiction has posited the solution of artificial gravity. However, as this video shows, that is no easy feat.

Artificial gravity could certainly be a possibility with current technology. Sadly, we are limited by the expense and availability of materials. Through the use of centrifugal force, a spinning space station would be able to generate artificial gravity. However, it would have to be spinning at a very fast rate. Alternatively, it’d have to be big enough to not need speed. The trade-off is between being too big to build or spinning too rapidly to be practical.

Building something as huge as science fiction models would certainly cost. Building the eponymous space stations from the 2013 film Elysium would require 500,000 people contributing $10 million each. Even more, aluminum would have to be mined from asteroids as Earth’s supply would not be enough.

Saturn’s Moon Enceladus May be Our Best Shot at Finding Extraterrestrial Life

Saturn’s Moon Enceladus May be Our Best Shot at Finding Extraterrestrial Life

 Scientists-are-meeting-to-discuss-looking-for-life-on-Enceladus-A-750x300.jpg
NASA/JPL-Caltech
IN BRIEF

Astronomers gathered by a NASA scientist met to discuss how to conduct the search for alien life on Saturn's moon, Enceladus.

LIFE ON A GLOBAL OCEAN

With everything we know about Saturn’s moon Enceladus, it has been said to be among the best shots we have at finding extraterrestrial life. Now, leading scientists are pushing for a mission to probe the moon in search of life. The group was gathered by planetary scientist Carolyn Porco – leader of the imaging team on NASA’s Cassini mission currently orbiting Saturn. Cassini is winding down her voyage in 2017, and Porco wants the group’s findings to guide the next spacecraft mission to be sent to Enceladus.

Enceladus is a tantalizingly habitable world: it has a subsurface global ocean, a heat source from friction with Saturn, and organic compounds – the building blocks for life. Enceladus’ global ocean sends up plumes of water vapor due to hydrothermal activity. It has 90 of these plumes, and the group wants to focus on these in the search for life. The upside for this is that the spacecraft would not need to land. Instead, it will just have to pass over the plumes and collect the samples. The downside is that such a pass could kill microbes in the water.

LIFE AND ITS MEANING

Cassini_Saturn_Orbit_Insertion JPL/NASA

Even faced with such odds, the prospect of discovering life so near to Earth is actually worth the struggle. Other than the great milestone of human evolution of finding life outside Earth, microbes in Enceladus could unlock previously unfathomable discoveries.

Finding life nearby means that life could very well be prevalent around the Universe since it formed twice in the same Solar System. If the biochemistry is radically different, life could spring easily—by multiple means. If life on Earth is similar to any found in Enceladus, it is possible that we could even share extraterrestrial ancestors

Hard UFO Evidence: The Ted Phillips Story

Hard UFO Evidence: The Ted Phillips Story

ted-philips

By Joe Harvat

It has become a bit of a cottage industry to rail against the current state of UFOlogy. The phenomenon seems beset with talking heads, poseurs and outright charlatans. So much so, it occasionally brings even the best of us to the brink of despair. But just when I thought there were no good men left to fight for answers to the UFO conundrum, I met up with Ted Phillips.

Ted Phillips is part of a rare breed. He is a UFO investigator – not a writer, not a theorist – a hard-core, old-school investigator. For the past forty-five years, he has traversed the United States, doing the arduous work of turning UFO testimony into hard, quantifiable evidence. He’s sifted through dirt, climbed trees, measured, photographed and measured again. The fruits of his efforts, some almost totally unknown to modern audiences, are nothing short of startling.

Phillips grew up in the great American Midwest, his radio tuned to the likes of Frank Edwards and Long John Nebel. A fascination grew within the man that, in 1964, finally prompted him to take action. He packed up his Chevy and headed southwest for his very first UFO investigation – a trip that put him smack in the middle of the Lonnie Zamora sighting in Socorro, New Mexico. The then 22-year-old Phillips was one of the first serious researchers to talk with Zamora and the numerous other people who witnessed the now classic egg-shaped UFO. Phillips retains what must be considered the definitive collection of analysis and evidence from that case – one he still considers among the most compelling of all time.

While in Socorro, Phillips crossed paths with an astronomer from Northwestern University who was investigating UFOs for the U.S. Air Force. That man, of course, was Dr. J. Allen Hynek. This meeting proved to be the start of a professional relationship and close friendship that would last until Hynek’s death in 1986.

In the years that followed, Phillips honed his skills as a painstaking investigator. “My approach is the same one you now see on television shows like CSI,” he told Department 47. “You must always handle a UFO scene with care, as though it were a crime scene.”

He would need all of those skills in 1966 when he examined a harrowing close encounter at Roaring River State Park in Missouri. Three hunters observed a daylight object in the park and, upon returning to their camp site, found all of their camping equipment incinerated. Whatever caused the fire was hot enough to melt aluminum tent poles but selective enough not to ignite the dry trees overhead. As the hunters surveyed the damage, they heard a humming noise. To their amazement, a bizarre disk-shaped object came into view a mere 300 feet away. As the men watched, a tree near the object burst into flame. The UFO finally made a quick exit but not before one of the hunters snapped two photographs.

Phillips called in his friend Dr. Hynek to help interview the witnesses and analyze the Roaring River evidence. Despite their combined efforts, no prosaic explanation for the event has ever been determined.

“Afterwards, Dr. Hynek admitted to me that the UFO phenomenon was bigger than he thought and that people were needed who were willing to specialize,” Phillips explained. “It was he who encouraged me to focus on physical trace cases.” 

Phillips took that advice to heart and, over the years, he’s been directly or indirectly involved with over 3000 UFO incidents that produced physical trace evidence. He has personally investigated hundreds of these, including the famous 1971 Delphos, Kansas incident and a 1979 case in which a UFO collided with a Minnesota sheriff’s patrol car.

All that careful analysis and attention to detail has paid dividends. Patterns and connections emerged in the evidence Phillips collected. For example, he learned from repeated compression tests on various landing marks that these alleged vehicles weighed from seven to fourteen tons. Similar tests of footprints found at UFO sites indicated that the entities who made them weighed about sixty pounds. All of this pointed to physical creatures with nuts-n-bolts technology – a hypothesis that, even in 2008, still strikes Phillips as the most logical answer.

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

The 1970s proved to be a hectic decade with so many cases that the tireless Phillips barely kept up. However, his investigations came to an abrupt halt with Dr. Hynek’s death in 1986. “It just wasn’t any fun without my friend,” he recalled.

Phillip’s self-imposed retirement continued until 1998 when he had a conversation with another icon of UFOlogy, Jacques Vallee. Vallee had known Phillips for years since he had included him as a member of the Invisible College, a blue-ribbon panel of UFO researchers. Vallee expressed concerns about the direction of UFOlogy and ultimately convinced Phillips to resume his important work.

So, that year, Ted Phillips founded The Center for Physical Trace Research (www.ufophysical.com). To his profound surprise, however, he discovered that, during his years of retirement, the phenomenon had undergone a radical change.

“Sometime during the late 1980s, the number of incidents involving large flying objects dropped considerably.” Phillips states. “At the same time, reports involving very small UFOs increased dramatically.”

Phillips also noticed that these miniature UFOs tended to appear repeatedly in a given area. This was a new facet of the phenomenon – one that may yet yield long-awaited answers. He knew only so much can be done with isolated, one-time UFO encounters. However, if an area of recurring activity could be identified, scientific methods and instruments might be brought to bear to measure and analyze the objects as never before.

To respond to this new opportunity, Phillips formed a Special Investigations Unit (SIU) within the CPTR. This small group of dedicated researchers functions like the Navy SEALS in that they are inserted into UFO hotspots armed with electronic and imaging equipment. In recent months, the SIU has been actively involved with an on-going investigation of a place that goes by the pseudonym of Marley Woods. Marley Woods has been visited on numerous occasions over the years by small, inexplicable lights. The lights vary in size, color, behavior and performance characteristics. More often than not, however, they appear to be the size of a beach ball. The objects have been seen by multiple, independent witnesses at close range. They have exhibited electromagnetic effects well known to most students of the phenomenon, including interfering with car ignitions, video cameras and even cell phones.

On several occasions in 2007, the SIU spent time in the Marley Woods. They are hoping to conduct additional research at the site later this year. Members of the SIU team include: Tom Ferrario, Adam Johnson, Debbie Ziegelmeyer and Chuck Zukowski. Ferrario and Ziegelmeyer are both certified divers, a skill that will be put to the test during the team’s next visit. Phillips explains that anomalous objects have, on more than one occasion, been seen to enter large farm ponds in the vicinity. The SIU divers will search those ponds to see if traces of the objects’ activity can be found.

 Phillips admits he’s particularly intrigued by this component of the case. He cites a recent Michigan encounter where a small UFO purportedly bounced off the top of a woman’s car. That object left a strange, yellow residue, which the witness had the foresight to preserve. The substance was then subjected to chemical and bacteriological analysis indicating that, strangely enough, this object may also have spent time in a farm pond.

Funding for such projects is always scarce but the group is working to bankroll the purchase of new, more sophisticated imaging equipment. They also look to add an electromagnetic field generator to their arsenal – one that just might attract one of the Marley Woods’ objects. Phillips is somewhat philosophical about the funding challenges faced by his organization. “After all, Dr. Hynek only managed one, $4000 grant during his entire career,” he mused.

To that end, the Center is accepting monetary donations on its website. Just this month, the group began marketing a DVD of its first investigation at Marley Woods, the proceeds of which will go toward future expeditions.

 ********************************

You’d think that, after forty-five years, Ted Phillips might want to slow down a bit. However, one conversation with this man reveals an energy and enthusiasm equal to that of his much younger colleagues. The veteran investigator says he’s holding leads on three new sites, much like Marley Woods, that are just begging to be investigated. Somehow, I can’t help but think Ted Phillips is still the man to get the job done.

(VIDEO)WHISTLEBLOWER FROM NASA HAS EVIDENCE OF MOON PHOTOS BEING MANIPULATED TO HIDE UFOS!

A lot of today's most discussed conspiracies originated from the well known 1947s Roswell UFO crash. There have been several claims from many ex NASA and Government employees about suspicious cover ups and Alien conspiracy.
 
 People in a worldwide scale have been reporting UFO sightings for a while now so it's definitly not a secret anymore. But there's always some skepticism, so it's nice to have new information every now and then. 
 
STRANGE "ANOMALIES" ON MOON PICTURES 
 
Former NASA consultant Dr Ken Johnston, was in charge of storing Apollo lunar mission photos so it could be sent to the respective science labs (all this back in 1971). 
 
He claims photos and films that he viewed first hand, contained strange "anomalies" that were edited out so it could be shown by NASA to the public. 
 
Dr Ken Johnston also donated a lot of evidence and pieces of information regarding these "anomalies" to the Roswell’s International UFO Museum and Research Center.

(VIDEO) ARE YOU ONE OF THEM? REAL ALIENS ARE LIVING AMONG US!

Whatever your opinions, you may well find that the following evidence have some impact on this.
 
 As former Canadian defence minister has claimed that aliens are real and has accused world leaders of keeping their presence on Earth, as secret. 
 
ALIENS ARE REAL 
 
Hellyer described several types of aliens including "Tall Whites" who are working with the US air force in Nevada. 
 
"They're able to get away with that; they had a couple of their ladies dressed as nuns go into Las Vegas to shop and they weren't detected," he claimed. 
 
What all this boils down to though is that there are more types of aliens around than you might think of at first. 
 
If we're talking about alien races, then there seem to be a few which appear to be the most well-known or talked about. This is because they appear in films, or have books written and promoted about them or there appears to be more evidence to support their existence. Briefly, Here they are down on the video listed:

The remains of a 200,000 year old advanced civilization found in Africa

The remains of a 200,000 year old advanced civilization found in Africa

The incredible discovery was made in South Africa, around 150 km west of port Maputo. There, we find the remains of a huge metropolis that measures, according to tests, around 1500 square kilometers. This ancient city is, according to researchers, part of an even larger community with about 10,000 square kilometers and is believed to have been constructed 160,000 to 200,000 years before Christ.
 
The region is somewhat remote and the “circles” have often been encountered by local farmers who assumed they were made by some indigenous people in the past. But, oddly, no one ever bothered to inquire about who could have made them or how old they were. This changed when researcher and author, Michael Tellinger, in association with Johan Heine, a local fireman and pilot who had looked at these ruins for years, decided to investigate them. Heine had the unique opportunity to see these incredible structures from the air and knew that their significance was not appreciated.
 
 
“When Johan first introduced me to the ancient stone ruins of southern Africa, he had no idea of the incredible discoveries we would make in the following years. The photographs, artifacts and evidence we accumulated, point towards a lost civilization that has never before been and precedes all others – not for a few hundred years, or a few thousand years … but many thousands of years.” – Tellinger
 
According to Tellinger, these discoveries are so incredible that It will need a complete paradigm shift in how we view our human history.
 
The surrounding geology is interesting due to the numbers gold mines located in the vicinity. Researchers have proposed that a vanished civilization from the distant past, could have lived and proposed in that part of the world while mining gold. They point to the Ancient Anunnaki:
 
The Anunnkai Timeline – Coming to Earth: (According to Sitchin)
 
450,000 B.C.
After long wars, the atmosphere of Nibiru began to deteriorate and became a hostile place for life, The Anunnaki needed gold to repair their atmosphere. According to researchers, we can use gold nano particles to repair our damaged ozone layer.
 
445,000 A.C.
The Anunnaki aliens landed on Earth and established their base in Eridu, wanting to extract gold from the Persian Gulf. They were led by Enki, son of Anu.
 
416,000 B.C.
Gold production fell, which made Anu come to Earth. Beside him his other son Enlil arrived. Anu decided that mining would take place in Africa and promoted Enlil in charge of the Terran mission.
 
400,000 A. C.
In southern Mesopotamia were seven developed nations. Among the most important were:  “Sipar”, “Nippur” and “Shuruppak”. After the metal was refined, the ore was transported from Africa with ‘ships’ and sent into orbit
 
 
You can take look at these incredible structures with Google Earth using the following coordinates:
  • Carolina: 25 55 ‘53.28? S / 30 16 ‘13.13? E
  • Badplaas: 25 47 ‘33.45? S / 30 40 ‘38.76? E
  • Waterval: 25 38 ‘07.82? S / 30 21 ‘18.79? E
  • Machadodorp: 25 39 ‘22.42? S / 30 17 ‘03.25? E
These incredible ruins mostly consist of stone circles, most have been buried in the sand and are only observable by plane or satellites. Some have been exposed to climate change that has removed the sand, revealing the walls and foundations.
 
“I see myself as someone quite open-minded but I admit that it took me over a year to figure it out, and I realized that we are actually dealing with the oldest structures ever built by man on Earth.
The main reason for this is that we have been taught that nothing of significance has ever come from South Africa. Powerful civilizations all emerged in Sumeria and Egypt and other places. “- Tellinger
 
 
According to Telling: It shows that the Sumerians and even the Egyptians inherited all their knowledge from an earlier advanced civilization that lived at the southern tip of Africa more than 200,000 years ago… mining gold.
 
These were also the people who carved the first Horus bird, the first Sphinx, built the first pyramids and built an exact stone calendar right in the heart of it all. Adam’s Calendar is the flagship among millions of circular stone ruins, ancient roads, agricultural terraces and thousands of ancient mines, left behind by a vanished civilization which they now call the FIRST PEOPLE. These were the ancestors of all humans today with an advanced knowledge of energy fields through planet Earth.
 
 
They carved detailed images into the hardest rock, worshipped the sun, and are the first to carve an image of the Egyptian Ankh – key of life and universal knowledge, 200,000 years before the Egyptians came to light. Tellinger presents this groundbreaking new evidence in which is released in his latest book Temples Of The African Gods. It graphically exposes these discoveries and will undoubtedly be the catalyst for rewriting our ancient human history.

UFOs like this one have been known to either be the cause of the lighting in some clouds, or be attracted to it, because around the globe, UFOs have been seen in the clouds when the lighting flashes. This is not a first time ever. Just here in Taiwan in the last 10 years, they saw UFOs in clouds two times, on two different storms. So...everhwere there is a storm, there is the potential that it could be a UFO causing it, or attracted to it. Excellent video by UFOvni2012.

An excellent find by Streetcap1 of Youtube. Although this could be a giant UFO, I believe it to be something else. Its just my opinion, but I have watched the International Space Station a lot over the last 6 years and I can tell you that this is not the moon, nor a meteor. It may be the Chinese space station cargo ship, called Tangong 1, or the other one Tangong 2. Both are advanced space laboratories and a cargo ship, but I don't believe they hold astronauts. In 2020 the Chinese will have a 20 ton section that will hold up to 3 astronauts for a period of time. Thats just my thoughts on this. Its been seen in many ISS videos.

Streetcap1 states: 

Remember a ufo is an unidentified flying object. This could well be a meteor or the like. What made it interesting was the camera cut off when the ufo seemed to stop. Streetcap1.

Do I believe in Mermaids? Yes, such creatures do exist and must be alien species that made a base below our ocean. The evidence is overwhelming, bodies dried out, caught by fishermen and kept in a glass case with the old 1950s newspaper clipping tapped to it. Yeah, I saw such a thing in an old store along the coast here in Taiwan. I looked it over and could find no evidence to point to it being fake. I even talked to the son of the person who caught it, and he attested its real. When going back, I could not find the store any longer. Maybe the closed, but its just gone. That is why I have never talked about it until now. Mermaids are real and I believe them to be aliens. 
Scott C. Waring
 
News states:
This drone footage has been featured in many YouTube videos that claim it shows real mermaids caught on tape. These videos make the claim that the humanoid figures seen swimming in the footage are mermaids that have been caught on tape by the drone. Some people have gone as far as to say that this depicts a pack of mermaids caught on tape by the drone. The footage is investigated further in this video.

Two UFOs Captured Over Seattle, Findings Still Under Investigation

Two UFOs Captured Over Seattle, Findings Still Under Investigation

ufo-seattle

If you are one of the thousands of people who witnessed aliens and extraterrestrial beings, you have seen the best of both worlds. As you know, the alien is too far from reality in public’s perspective. The fact that you have experienced and encountered it, the story will not lie. A witness from Washington reported seeing and recording two highly reflective strange objects. The encounter took place during daylight on June.21, 2016, and the witness was outside when two stationary points of light were noticeable. As soon as it came to the attention, the witness told a co-worker to get a camcorder while the witness kept an eye to the two objects. As soon as the camcorder was turned on, the witness attempted to zoom the objects. Unfortunately, the object was so small that the camera had a hard time focusing on them.

While the witness was able to zoom the object, it appeared highly reflective and had squared appearance. In other words, the flying object does not come in curvy shape, but is square in shape and has sharp edges. It also comes with a short bar in the middle part and bears exactly a capital H.

The witness continued to record the strange objects when they slowly hid behind a building. The witness puts the recorder tool away only to see the objects again to the right. Because of this, the witness has concluded that they either came back to the point where they were originally seen, or there were two more strange objects. Apparently, the new two vessels drifted to the building as well.

While the sighting sounds and looks genuine, some experts it is too good to be true. Meanwhile, Timothy Ward, the Washington State Director is still investigating. Therefore, the case has not been debunked as a hoax or fictional story yet.

World leader 'to confirm aliens are visiting Earth by end of this year'

World leader 'to confirm aliens are visiting Earth by end of this year'

 JON DILLON

https://youtu.be/g9_Wdtlg6PE

President Barack Obama or David Cameron are among the names that have been tipped to reveal the information conspiracy theorists have long sought-after

Bookies have slashed the odds on a world leader revealing before the end of this year that aliens are visiting us.

Activists are stepping up calls today for governments around the world to formally acknowledge that extra-terrestrials are engaging the human race.

World Disclosure Day is being held to raise awareness of the so-called Roswell incident 69 years ago and end the 'truth embargo', say organisers.

It is claimed an alien spaceship crashed on a remote ranch in New Mexico in the first week of July 1947.

Barack Obama could reveal that aliens are visiting us

The Roswell Army Air Force issued a press release saying the military had recovered the remains of "flying disc" which made front page news around the world.

But on July 8, General Roger Ramey announced at a press conference that the object was just a weather balloon, sparking claims of a cover-up.

Stephen Bassett, America's only registered lobbyist on the UFO /ET issue, spoke at the Alien Cosmic Expo late last month: "World Disclosure Day is not a prediction that disclosure will happen on July 8.

"It is a designated day to draw focus on the issue. Think Earth Day.

Getty
David Cameron
David Cameron has previously stated he would be open with the public

"However, on the day the first nation comes forward to finally and formally acknowledge the alien presence, that date will then become World Disclosure Day historically recognising the most profound event in human history."

The video was later uploaded to YouTube by Jo-Anne Eadie .

William Hill has now slashed the odds of a UK prime minister or US president announcing aliens are visiting the planet from 1000/1 to just 25/1.

It follows Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton's pledge to "get to the bottom" of "unexplained aerial phenomena" if she is elected president. She also vowed to send a "task force" into Area 51 in Nevada where craft are said to be kept hidden away.

Bookies have now slashed the odds on a world leader revealing the presence of aliens

Bassett, executive director of Paradigm Research Group, worked with Earth Mystery News and is so convinced President Obama will disclosure before the end of the year, he has put his money where his mouth is by placing a 100/1 wager - dubbed the 'Disclosure bet' - which has a $30,000 payout.

And he believes the UK Prime Minister, which looks odds-on to be Theresa May, would back up the US commander in chief.

He added: "It is notable that not too many years back, similar wagers received odds of 1000 to 1 odds. The odds are much lower now."

A William Hill spokesman said: "There has definitely been a decent number of bets in recent weeks but with the election around the corner we expect loads more.

There are questions about the suspected alien crash at Roswell

"The last bet was 100/1 but we are now just 25/1 and will be offering maximum bets of £50.

"Over the years we have had many bets for aliens but this is the first time that we have been worried. If we are truly going to find out then this year's American election looks like the catalyst."

READ MORE

Paul Hellyer, a former deputy Prime Minister and ex-defence minister of Canada, spoke out at the First Canadian National Inquiry into UFOs last week, claiming that a 'cabal' of bankers, oil cartels, industrial corporations, the military and intelligence agencies were behind the cover-up.

He also believes an alien craft did crash at Roswell and the US and Canadian governments signed a deal not to tell the public about visitations.

Notorious Area 51 Secured by Snipers, Unmarked Choppers (VIDEOS)

Area 51

Notorious Area 51 Secured by Snipers, Unmarked Choppers (VIDEOS)

As the promise of declassifying whatever information there might be regarding the visitation of Earth by extraterrestrials is yet to be fulfilled, Area 51 in Nevada, a place that has excited UFO seekers for decades, has increased its security, employing snipers and unmarked helicopters to patrol the region’s perimeter.

Several viral YouTube videos suggest that an entrance into the restricted US Air Force base is being kept safe from prying eyes.

One video, recorded May 18, depicts curious travelers who stray too close to the restricted area. A person claiming to be an author of the footage states during the video that there is a sign at the Area 51 entrance, warning off anyone from wandering onto the base.

“It says use of deadly force authorized," the voice in the footage says. “We have been to every other gate and this is the only one that says use of deadly force.”

The videographers claim to have observed what they describe as a “sniper man” on a rocky hilltop who, they believe, is standing guard.

Another video, recorded on May 15, documents a tour group prowling around the vicinity of the air base’s main entrance. A Black Hawk helicopter appears, flying low enough that a man could “hit it with a rock," one of the witnesses notes. The helicopter circles the tourists closely.

The observer in the video asserts that the helicopter is a “black ops” aircraft, a term commonly used by conspiracy theorists to describe covert operations by a government.

According to Andre Milne, founder of defense technology firm Unicorn Aerospace, the Area 51 operations aren’t about aliens. In an interview with Express.co.uk, Milne statesthat the US military tests classified aircraft at the remote facility.

"Area 51 is a highly-secured facility for the painfully obvious necessity to restrict any and or all witness observations of the classified aircraft," he said.

Area 51 became notorious in 1947, when representatives of the US military claimed that they had discovered a crashed alien spacecraft outside the town of Roswell, Nevada. Subsequent statements claimed  that the ‘UFO’ was a crashed weather balloon, but many insisted that the remains of a spaceship had been moved to Area 51 for examination.

Earlier this year, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton µ

promised to declassify all data about encounters with extraterrestrials,

if she’s elected as President of the United States in November.

Roswell & The US Military: The Truth Really Is Out There

Roswell & The US Military: The Truth Really Is Out There

Roswell & The US Military: The Truth Really Is Out There

by John-Paul Tooth

M*A*S*H - The Series
Ever wanted to find out what really happened at Roswell? Well now you can.
 
In 1947 there was a crash at a ranch near the city of Roswell, in New Mexico.
 
And that's pretty much the only thing that's been universally agreed upon ever since.
 
It all started when a foreman, William Brazel, noticed clusters of debris around 30 miles north of Roswell.
Brazel told the Roswell Daily Record that he and his son saw a "large area of bright wreckage made up of rubber strips, tinfoil, a rather tough paper and sticks."
He paid little attention to it at the time but later returned with his family to gather up the material.
 
The next day, after hearing reports about 'flying disks', the foreman began to wonder if that was what he had picked up.
During a visit to the local sheriff, Brazel "whispered kinda confidential like" that he may have found a flying disc.
Sheriff Wilcox then called Major Jesse Marcel from the nearby Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF), at which point a "man in plainclothes" accompanied Brazel back to the ranch. But what they found doesn't really sound very alien at all..
 
As reported in the July 9, 1947 edition of the Roswell Daily Record:
 
"The balloon which held it [the 'flying disk] up... must have been 12 feet long, [Brazel] felt, measuring the distance by the size of the room in which he sat. The rubber was smoky grey in colour and scattered over an area about 200 yards in diameter.
 
"When the debris was gathered up, the tinfoil, paper, tape, and sticks made a bundle about three feet long and 7 or 8 inches thick, while the rubber made a bundle about 18 or 20 inches long and about 8 inches thick. In all, he estimated, the entire lot would have weighed maybe five pounds. 
"There was no sign of any metal in the area which might have been used for an engine, and no sign of any propellers of any kind, although at least one paper fin had been glued onto some of the tinfoil."
"There were no words to be found anywhere on the instrument, although there were letters on some of the parts. Considerable Scotch tape and some tape with flowers printed upon it had been used in the construction.
 
"No strings or wires were to be found but there were some eyelets in the paper to indicate that some sort of attachment may have been used."
 
The object was flown to Fort Worth Army Air Field, where the object was identified as being a weather balloon and its "kite", a nickname for a radar reflector used to track the balloons from the ground.
 
Public attention was grabbed, however, after the RAAF issued a press release stating that military personnel had recovered a "flying disc" which had crashed on a ranch near Roswell.
 
But interest subsided pretty quickly after the military informed the public that the crash was of a standard weather balloon; with a press conference held featuring debris (foil, rubber and wood) said to be from the crashed object, which matched the weather balloon description.

And the desired effect was achieved - historian Robert Goldberg describes the story as having "died the next day" - but the story didn't end there, and the military hadn't in fact told the whole truth (but we'll come to that later).
 
It was over 30 years until interest was reignited - with conspiracy theories surrounding the event starting to take hold amongst UFO enthusiasts (known as 'ufologists') in the late 1970s.
 
UFO researchers began to interview hundreds of people who claimed to have had a connection with the events at Roswell, while hundreds of documents were obtained via Freedom of Information Act requests, and 'government documents' supposedly leaked by insiders. 
 
Books, articles and television shows were produced, and by the mid-1990s a poll revealed that most people interviewed believed aliens had landed at Roswell, and that a government cover-up had taken place.

Many also believe that alien bodies were recovered, with film footage causing an international sensation in 1995 that claimed to show an alien autopsy and have been taken by a US military official shortly after the Roswell incident. 
 
Its creator admitted in 2006 that the film was 'mostly a reconstruction', although he claimed it was based on since-lost genuine footage, with some original frames having allegedly survived. A fictionalised version of the story of the footage then became the subject of the 2006 comedy film Alien Autopsy (2006).
 
 
It's been reported that as many as 11 'alien recovery sites' have been identified, with some of these having possibly confused accounts of the several known recoveries of injured and dead service personnel from four military plane crashes that occurred in the area from 1948 to 1950. 
 
In fact, there's no evidence that a UFO crashed at Roswell. 
B. D. Gildenberg has called the incident "the world's most famous, most exhaustively investigated, and most thoroughly debunked UFO claim".
There have been a number of explanations for the hold Roswell has taken over the public imagination. Former CIA intelligence officer and author Karl T. Pflock said:
"[T]he case for Roswell is a classic example of the triumph of quantity over quality. The advocates of the crashed-saucer tale […] simply shovel everything that seems to support their view into the box marked 'Evidence' and say, 'See? Look at all this stuff. We must be right.' Never mind the contradictions. Never mind the lack of independent supporting fact. Never mind the blatant absurdities."
Others point to a public preoccupation in the 1980s with "conspiracy, cover-up and repression" following the Watergate scandal of the previous decade, while it's also been suggested that people may have had motives for promoting the idea of aliens at Roswell. Author Kal Korff says:
"[The] UFO field is comprised of people who are willing to take advantage of the gullibility of others, especially the paying public. Let's not pull any punches here: The Roswell UFO myth has been very good business for UFO groups, publishers, for Hollywood, the town of Roswell, the media, and Ufology […] [The] number of researchers who employ science and its disciplined methodology is appallingly small."
It's also been argued that the Roswell story has all the hallmarks of a traditional folk narrative, with a core narrative having been built upon as it was shared and passed on.
 
Other 'witnesses' were then sought out to expand the core story, with any accounts not in agreement with it not being included. The story was then retold, and the process started again.
 
Most of the supposed witnesses, meanwhile, were repeating the claims of others, which would be considered as hearsay in a court of law and therefore inadmissible as evidence.
Indeed, by the 2000s physicist and sceptic Dave Thomas commented: "Is Roswell still the 'best' UFO incident? If it is, UFO proponents should be very, very worried."
Things should have been cleared up in the mid-90s - when the US military admitted that it hadn't, in fact, told the whole truth.
 
After the global spread of reports on the incident, the US Air Force was instructed to conduct an internal investigation.
 
It resulted in two reports, the first of which admitted the true purpose of the crashed device - nuclear test monitoring.
 
It concluded that the material recovered in 1947 was likely debris from Project Mogul, a top secret US military operation which involved microphones flown on high-altitude balloons to detect sound waves generated by Soviet atomic bomb tests.
 
Click below to see President Barack Obama's reaction when asked about his knowledge of aliens...
 
 
Carried out from 1947 until early 1949, the project was ultimately superseded by a cheaper, more reliable network of seismic detectors and air sampling for fallout, which were easier to deploy and operate.
 
The second report, released in 1997, concluded that reports of recovered alien bodies were probably in part caused by innocently transformed memories of military accidents involving injured or killed personnel.
 
Memories of the recovery of anthropomorphic dummies used in 1950s military programs and hoaxes perpetrated by various witnesses and UFO proponents were also offered as explanations.
 
UFO believers, meanwhile, dismissed the reports, attacking their credibility or claiming they were released as disinformation.
 
So we're agreed - a cover-up of a top secret military operation led to allegations of a cover-up of an unimaginable scale further down the line. Case closed. Or is it?

Mysterious St. Elmo’s fire ignites blue sparks on finger tips at Lake Monona, Wisconsin

Mysterious St. Elmo’s fire ignites blue sparks on finger tips at Lake Monona, Wisconsin

Look at this! These guys are experiencing small blue sparks on their finger tips as well as a static noise at Lake Monona, Wisconsin.
 
Yes, that’s the rare and mysterious St. Elmo’s fire phenomenon.
 
The St. Elmo’s fire phenomenon occurs when tiny charges in electricity from an object meet the naturally occurring charges in the air.
 
If the charges in the air are unusually high, often caused by a nearby storm, the clash can be so great that currents ionize and, when combined with nitrogen and oxygen, produce a blue color.
 
In this case, a snowstorm close by filled the air with the buzz of electricity.

Site of famous alleged UFO landing in Wales up for sale

In 1977, there were a string of UFO sightings in Wales that included alleged UFO landings and alien visitation. The incident is referred to as The Broad Haven Triangle, and now, one of the primary locations of the incident is up for sale.

Formerly the Haven Fort Hotel, the building looks like it is out of a period television show. It is right off the cliffs of the picturesque Pembrokeshire coastline. While it does not look like a place where an alien visitation might have occurred, if they were in town for recreation, it is a great choice.

According to Wales Online, the current owner, Francis Granville, says she first heard about the alien visitations when her father wrote her a letter while she was in Spain. Granville says her father’s letter claimed that her mother had seen a UFO and two aliens.

“It was early morning and mum was woken by a buzzing noise and she thought she’d left the gas boiler on. Once downstairs she realized the noise was from outside,” recalled Granville.

“She looked out and saw about 100 feet away an oval object she could only describe as a ‘space craft’ with lights, slowly land and two figures emerge in silver suits,” Granville continued. “She was terrified because the figures, although reminiscent of men, had exceptionally long arms and legs. Their heads were covered by helmets. She called them creatures.”

After Granville’s mother called her father over, the craft and the aliens had disappeared. However, upon examination of the area, they found a small crater in the ground.

Fortunately for Granville’s mother, she was not the only witness. 14 students at nearby Broad Haven Primary say they also saw the UFO land, and they all drew pictures of what they saw.

Others also claimed to have had strange experiences. Francine says, “At the farm across St Bride’s Bay the farmer’s wife said she heard scratching at the window and saw the two creatures looking in! Lots of people in the county saw the craft.”

According to a book on the sightings titled The Watchers, written by Neil Spring, a local Minister of Parliament, Nicholas Edwards, commented on the events. Apparently, Edwards reported at the time, “I am being inundated at the present time with representations about UFOs said to have been seen in Pembrokeshire.”

Granville’s property looks a bit like a small castle. It is on 4.6 acres and the sale includes the pebble shoreline and beach at the base of the cliffs. The beach even has its own name, Settlands Bay. The home has a lounge area, a restaurant, a commercial kitchen and 14 guest rooms. It is perfect for the enterprising UFO enthusiast who would like to get into the UFO tourism business.

Little Big Splat: Giant Impact May Have Formed the Moons of Mars

Little Big Splat: Giant Impact May Have Formed the Moons of Mars

mars-2moons_A-750x300.png
IN BRIEF

An international team of researchers have proposed a solid theory that may explain the nature of Mars' two moons, Phobos and Deimos.

THE CHILDREN OF MARS

While much attention, time, and effort have been given to the Red Planet, less attention has been given to its two diminutive moons, Phobos and Deimos. Even their origin and composition remain a mystery.

But that may soon change.

A multidisciplinad.ry study involving French, Belgian and Japanese researchers has proposed a model that may explain the origins of the two satellites and shed light on how moons develop in the Solar System.

In the past, two theories dominate the debate on the satellite’s history. One proposes capture, where the two are asteroids trapped by Mars’ gravity well. The other is that the moons formed from the debris of a collision between Mars and a protoplanet. This is the same theory proposed for our Moon’s formation (colorfully known as the “Big Splat”)—but how two satellites could form from such a process constituted a major hole in this argument, at least as far as Phobos and Deimos were concerne

PATCHING HOLES

But the new model fills the void in the impact argument. It contends that the two satellites formed because of a much slower axial rotation than what was the case with the Earth and Moon.

The study, published in Nature Geoscience, proposes the following chain of events:

Some 4 to 4.5 billion years ago (i.e., very early in the Solar System’s history), Mars suffered a colossal impact with a body about a third of its size. The debris, captured by Mars’ gravity, formed into a disk à la Saturn’s glorious adornment. Here an enormous moon a thousand times the mass of Phobos gradually formed. This is exactly the scenario that created our Moon.

But the divergence occurs because of the slower rotation speeds. Earth took less than 4 hours to spin on its axis whereas Mars rotated very slowly over a 24-hour period. The slower rotation allowed the debris to coalesce into smaller moons. These moons were all forced by Martian tidal action to fall back onto the planet’s surface (including the largest one), leaving only the two most distant moons: Phobos and Deimos.

The theory may also explain another longstanding Martian mystery: why its northern hemisphere is lower in altitude than its southern.  The Borealis Basin, it turns out, may be the remnant of this primordial, moon-forming impact.

However, while this establishes a concrete theory, it is still speculation until future missions collect images and samples that prove that the moons are composed of a mixture of Martian mantle and debris.

Lost Japanese Spacecraft Shares Groundbreaking View of Galaxy Group

Lost Japanese Spacecraft Shares Groundbreaking View of Galaxy Group
This image illustrates how supermassive black holes at the center of galaxy clusters could heat intergalactic gas, preventing it from cooling and forming stars. The black hole inflates bubbles (dark areas) of ultrahot, ionized gas, called plasma. The bubbles, which reach tens of thousands of light-years into space, drag gas (blue clouds) from the cluster center, which explains the long streaks of gas, or filaments, seen in optical images. In the outer regions, the bubbles cause turbulence, which heats the gas. The hot gas emits bright X-rays detected by X-ray satellites.

Like a confectioner trying to reach the right consistency in a sweet concoction, a supermassive black hole is vigorously stirring the gas within a collection of galaxies to keep star formation at a minimum. The new finding, revealed bythe doomed spacecraft Hitomi, may help solve the question of why so few stars form within collections of hundreds or thousands of galaxies.

Hitomi measured the motion of gas in the center of the Hitomi measured the motion of gas in the center of the the Perseus galaxy cluster with unprecedented precision, as much as 50 times better than previous instruments, said Andrew Fabian, a professor of astronomy at the University of Cambridge in England. The black hole, by stirring the gas, keeps the material from cooling down and forming new stars. 

Without that mixing activity from the black hole, "the central galaxy would be much brighter and have a much higher stellar mass," Fabian told Space.com by email. Fabian is chairperson of part of Hitomi's science working group, an international collaboration headed by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). That group published the results of the only science completed by the HItomi spacecraft before it disintegrated in orbit last April. [Images: Black Holes of the Universe]

"We already knew that supermassive black holes, which are found at the center of all galaxy clusters and are tens of billions of times more massive than the sun, could play a major role in keeping the gas from cooling by somehow injecting energy into it," Norbert Werner, a research associate at Stanford University in California who analyzed data from Hitomi, said in a statement. "Now we understand this mechanism better and see that there is just the right amount of stirring motion to produce enough heat."

Galaxy clusters are made up of anywhere from 50 to thousands of galaxies. Hot gas reaching tens of millions of degrees Fahrenheit makes up about 15 percent of a cluster, causing it to shine brightly in the X-ray spectrum. Studying the gas helps astronomers make estimates of how massive the cluster is, but these estimates can change based on how quickly the gas is stirred, a process that can also affect the birth of stars. 

Other instruments have studied the Perseus cluster, the brightest X-ray cluster in the sky, and one of the most massive. These glimpses revealed enormous bubbles of gas thousands of light-years wide, spat out by thesupermassive black hole at the center of the cluster. 

For the first time, Hitomi was able to link the movement of the gas to the bubbles. As they rise from the black hole, the bubbles drag gas from the center of the cluster, stirring it up and heating it. Because the gas can't cool, it is unable to form new stars. (Visible-light images reveal streaks of colder gas pulled away from the galactic center).

"Although the motions heat the gas at the center of the Perseus cluster, their speed is only about 100 miles [160 kilometers] per second, which is surprisingly slow considering how disturbed the region looks in X-ray images," Hitomi's co-principal investigator Roger Blandford, a physics professor at Stanford University and a professor of astrophysics and particle physics at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

While understanding how the gas moves can affect estimates of mass in the cluster, Blandford said the new measurements haven't led to significant changes in previous mass calculations. 

Unfortunately, Hitomi was able to study the Perseus cluster only briefly before the satellite was lost.

Due to the spacecraft failure, "We are not able to make these measurements in other clusters and galaxies and so understand better how the feedback process operates," Fabian said.

The research, along with an accompanying perspective piece, was published online today (July 6) in the journal Nature.

Launched in February 2016, Hitomi carried an X-ray detector that was designed to spot objects 10 to 100 times fainter than those visible to previous spacecraft, according to JAXA. By probing high-energy objects such as black holes, galaxy clusters and supernova remnants from space, Hitomi was able to observe in X-ray and gamma-ray wavelengths that can't make it through Earth's atmosphere.

But after a little more than a month in space, a glitch resulted in Hitomi spinning wildly out of control. The high-speed rotation caused several pieces of the satellite to snap off, permanently disabling the spacecraft. As many as 11 fragments were detected flying through space. By the end of April, JAXA ended its efforts to reconnect to the spacecraft, well before the end of what was supposed to be a three-year mission.

Despite its early destruction, Hitomi managed to perform significant science. In its first week after launch, the spacecraft spent three days observing the Perseus cluster, making a total of four observations. Hitomi began its fateful position change before the craft had completed all of the studies that researchers had intended it to make.

"Eventually, it would have mapped much of the cluster over a total of a month or more, and much longer on many other clusters," Fabian said.

He told Space.com that only a handful of other sources were observed for calibration purposes, and these would be "much less interesting scientifically."

"Being able to measure gas motions is a major advance in understanding the dynamic behavior of galaxy clusters and its ties to cosmic evolution," study co-author Irina Zhuravleva of the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology, said in the same statement from SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. "Although the Hitomi mission ended tragically after a very short period of time, it's fair to say that it has opened a new chapter in X-ray astronomy."

IN BRIEF

The brown dwarf known as WISE 0855 has fascinated astronomers. Now they've begun to study its composition—with surprising results.

The brown dwarf WISE 0855 has piqued the interest of astronomers since it was first detected in 2014. It is 7.2 light-years away from Earth and is known to be the coldest object outside the Solar System. When viewed using ground-based telescopes, it is just barely visible at infrared wavelengths.

Using the Gemini North telescope in Hawaii, astronomers at UC Santa Cruz succeeded in getting an infrared spectrum of the brown dwarf which gives the first set of details regarding its composition and chemistry. Included among the details is the strong evidence that clouds of water or water ice exist on the object. These are the first water ice clouds to be detected outside of the Solar System.

“The spectrum allows us to investigate dynamical and chemical properties that have long been studied in Jupiter’s atmosphere, but this time on an extrasolar world,” said Andrew Skemer, assistant professor of astronomy and astrophysics at UC Santa Cruz.

The Fabulous Lives of Nebulas

The Fabulous Lives of Nebulas

Paul Sutter is an astrophysicist at The Ohio State University and the chief scientist at Columbus, Ohio's Center Of Science and Industry (COSI) . Sutter is also host of the podcasts "Ask a Spaceman" and "RealSpace," and the YouTube series "Space in Your Face."

Glittering, glamorous, graceful. The latest red-carpet fashion statement? No, of course not. I'm talking about nebulas, the wispy clouds of gas and dust scattered through each galaxy. Earthly fabrics can't come close to the heavenly, tenuous beauty of these objects.

Peppered throughout the Milky Way, they provide amateur astronomers an eyeful of delight and give professional astronomers plenty to ponder. We see these objects in all sorts of shapes, sizes, colors and configurations, from almost-perfect spheres and shells to dazzlingly complex helices to tangled wrecks. But where exactly do they come from? And, perhaps more importantly, where are they going?

[Watch this video where I describe Messier's catalog of nebulas.]

To get a good look at nebulas, let's first look at the stars. Tiny, compact and dense — at least, astronomically speaking — a star is pretty much the opposite of a nebula. The power of a star comes from nuclear fusion, which occurs because of the intense pressures shoving elements together way past their personal comfort zones. That fusion creates heavier elements and a tiny bit of leftover energy, which is enough to maintain the star for millions (in the case of huge stars) to trillions (in the case of teensy-tiny-barely-above-brown-dwarf stars) of years. [50 Fabulous Deep-Space Nebula Photos]

No matter how long they last, stars are finite creatures. Thus, they must have come from somewhere and will end up going to somewhere else. Presumably, they didn't start life as tiny, dense balls and they won't end life the same way either. So where do stars come from, and where are they going?

Based on this article's topic, you can probably guess what the answer is: nebulas. Stars come from nebulas and end up turning into nebulas. Likewise, nebulas can generally be classified into two categories: about-to-be-stars and used-to-be-stars.

One could argue that the natural state of matter is clouds of stuff. In fact, I'm about to make just that argument. Stars depend on a specific process, nuclear fusion, to survive, and once that process ends, they quit being stars. The objects known as stars are altogether temporary. But a cloud of gas and dust? It can just hang out being a cloud of gas and dust for as long as it wants. If no forces nudge it one way or the other, it's perfectly happy just being what it is.

That will change only when a nebula does get nudged, say by a chance gravitational interaction with a neighbor, or by being too close to a nearby supernova (you gotta hate it when that happens). Once nudged, the nebula can become unstable, its natural self-gravitational pull overwhelming its equally natural gas pressure (an event marked by reaching a threshold dubbed the "Jeans instability"). Very quickly, pieces of the nebula branch and break off, smashing down in on themselves to get the fusion party started and make some stars.

The smashed-down bits turn into "dark nebulas" (hint: they're kind of black) as their high densities shroud the light coming from any newly forming stars. Fortunately, radio and infrared radiation penetrate even the densest of these nebulas, allowing astronomers to peer into these clouds' stellar wombs.

A typical cloud of gas, once unsettled, might make hundreds or even thousands of stars in a single batch. The largest and brightest of those stars will spew out tons of hot, heavy, high-energy radiation, exciting the molecules in the remaining nebula and causing it to glow rosy red.

Called "emission nebulas" — because their material is, well, emitting light — they won't last long. Those big, bright stars spewing radiation are sure to go supernova, ripping apart the already-tenuous veils of dust and gas and spreading this material so thin even the keenest observers are unable to distinguish it from the general spacey background.

And that brings us to where nebulas come from in the first place. The answer, of course, is stars. When stars die, it's not pretty — or it's very pretty, depending on your point of view. [Supernova Photos: Great Images of Star Explosions]

The largest stars go off in spectacular fashion, unleashing almost all their unspent energy in a blast that can outshine entire galaxies (to be fair, the blast will last only a few days or weeks, while galaxies keep on shining for trillions of years). That blast naturally carries a lot of "stuff" far from the original star; basically, the whole star is turned inside out and goes from point-like to cloud-like in one fantastic event.

The ejected material rides the shockwaves at a healthy fraction of the speed of light, so it doesn't take long for a decent-size nebula to form. Even supernovas that occurred only hundreds of years ago (which in astronomical terms might as well be yesterday) have already become beautiful artistic displays. One such example is the Crab nebula, which is itself lit by the intense radiation still pouring out of the hot, left-over core of its dead star.

Stars like Earth's sun don't go off as intensely, but that doesn't mean they don't get to create their own masterpieces. Near the ends of these stars' lives, the switchover from hydrogen- to helium-based fusion in the cores leads to complex interplay in the stellar interiors. This causes the outmost layers to swell, expand and eventually slough off. The erratic nature of the star during this time pushes the outward-moving gas in weird directions.

The result: planetary nebulas, which unfortunately have absolutely nothing to do with planets. They come in a wild variety of shapes and patterns. They don't last long. Like their supernova cousins, they're lit by the remaining core of the star, and once that peters out after a few thousand years, the fireworks show is over.

But since stars like the Earth's sun are so common, this galaxy continues to produce new planetary nebulas, decorating the galactic disk like Christmas ornaments.

[Watch this video where I explain the life cycles of stars.]

So that's it: Nebulas turn into stars, and stars turn into nebulas. It's a cycle that has persisted for over 13 billion years, starting when the first nebula scrunched down into a star. And it will continue to last for trillions more. Eventually, though, the nebulas will win: You need to pack enough stuff into a small enough space to make a star, and once you run out of opportunities you run out of stars, and the universe will return to its natural, long-term state: a bunch of gas and dust floating around.
