A Man In Arizona Observes Reflective UFO Hiding Behind Cloud

A witness claimed he noticed a cloud hiding an alien spaceship. Anthony Sakowski said he observed the cloud surface to be reflective while driving along a country road in Arizona.

Anthony published the video to YouTube on January 6, but the exact date and time of the sighting is not stated. The video has received mixed comments or reactions from the viewers. Anthony said that a UFO reflected on haze above.

Most viewers suggested that Anthony has indeed caught on video something that’s not frequently seen. They stated that he just captured a video of a lenticular cloud, which has often been mistaken for UFO sightings. Lenticular clouds are stationary lens-shaped clouds in perpendicular alignment to the wind direction. They form in the troposphere- the lowest portion of Earth’s atmosphere.

However, some viewers offered a different view.  They said that the unidentified flying object appeared to the view of the witness when the sun lit it up, which caused a disk reflection above it on the clouds. They explained that only a metal reflective surface could do such thing. They further speculated that the actual UFO is the dark area of the cloud.

Two Types Of Invisible Terrestrial Entities Identified

Nuclear physicist Ruggero Santilli claimed to have detected invisible entities living in the atmosphere of the Earth. Harvard-educated Santilli published an article revealing the existence of these mysterious invisible entities, which are the black and bright type. The Italian-American said that they are completely invisible to the human eyes.  Dr. Santilli added that these beings could be spying on human activities.

Interestingly, Santilli, who runs an energy, nuclear physics, and optics company Thunder Energies Corporation, said that these entities appear to be performing unauthorized surveillance of sensitive military, industrial, and civil installations. He suggested that the government should answer the question about the real identity of those invisible beings.

President of the Corporation, Dr. George Gaines, said that they learned the reality is much bigger than they originally thought. He stated that there are things that are invisible even using a standard telescope.

Dr. Santilli said that they were able to identify two different kinds of invisible terrestrial entities or ITEs and added that more types of these beings might be identified in not so distant future.

Beyond Pluto: NASA's New Horizons Spacecraft Heads to Next Adventure

To Pluto and beyond!

Nearly two years after its historic encounter with the dwarf planet Pluto, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft is getting ready for its next big adventure in the icy outskirts of the solar system.

Now, the spacecraft is on its way to a small, ancient object located about 1 billion miles (1.6 billion kilometers) beyond Pluto in the Kuiper Belt. This distant region surrounds the solar system and is filled with trillions of icy rocks that have yet to be explored. The new target was discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope in June 2014, and it was dubbed 2014 MU69.

Pluto, which officially lost its planetary status shortly after New Horizons launched in 2006, is also a Kuiper Belt object (KBO), and the largest of its kind. New Horizons became the first spacecraft to visit the Pluto system when the probe flew by the dwarf planet and its moons on July 14, 2015.

A world of discoveries

It took the spacecraft about 16 months to beam back all of its data from the Pluto flyby, and planetary scientists have had a ball with that data. 

"The New Horizons flyby of the Pluto system was completely successful, and now we've got all the data on the ground and we're putting a bow around it," Alan Stern, the New Horizons principal investigator at Southwest Research Institute, said in a Facebook Live event on Thursday (Jan. 19). 

Thanks to New Horizons, scientists now have a global map of Pluto and the most detailed images yet of the dwarf planet's bizarre, mountainous landscape and icy volcanoes. Tall mountain ranges seen on Pluto also suggest recent geological activity on the dwarf planet's surface. 

New Horizons additionally beamed back a gorgeous photo of a huge, heart-shaped basin (unofficially called "Tombaugh Regio") that quickly became Pluto's most famous feature, taking the internet by storm and gracing the front page of hundreds of newspapers worldwide. The New Horizons science team has said Pluto's "heart" seems to indicate the presence of a subsurface ocean. 

The Pluto flyby also provided an opportunity to study Pluto's moons, particularly Charon. Researchers discovered that Charon and Pluto are both tidally locked, meaning the same side of the moon always faces the dwarf planet and vice-versa. As a result, Pluto's heart is always facing Charon. A giant red spot discovered on Charon's surface revealed that the moon is taking some of its atmosphere from Pluto.

"One thing that we discovered is that small planets can be just as complex as big planets, and that really blew away our expectations," Stern said, adding that all the new findings from Pluto "wet our appetite for future exploration of the Kuiper Belt."

Exploring beyond Pluto

While the team continues to analyze the plethora of data — something that could go on for decades — it's also busy planning for the next big stage of the mission, the flyby of 2014 MU69. That will occur in January 2019.

Pluto is the largest object known to exist in the Kuiper Belt, but MU69 is much smaller and more representative of the trillions of other KBOs, Kelsi Singer of the New Horizons science team told Space.com. Pluto is comparable to the size of North America at 1,475 miles (2,370 km) in diameter, while MU69 is less than 30 miles (about 45 km) across.

But MU69 isn't just any old KBO. Singer said that the object "has a special kind of orbit that makes it possibly a type of object that is primordial and left over from early solar system formation. So we think that we'll be able to look at what the building blocks of the solar system were like by going to this special object that has a special orbit."

Plutonium power

Part of the rationale for choosing MU69 as the next target was that it had a good location given the amount of fuel left on the New Horizons spacecraft. 

"MU69 turned out to be really interesting, but we also had limited options," Singer said. Using the Hubble Space Telescope, "we were searching the area of space where we had enough fuel left in the spacecraft to get to any objects that were there," she said. Three good potential targets were located, but the other two "were just on the edge of where [the spacecraft] had enough fuel to get to." 

New Horizons runs on a radioactive plutonium power supply that could keep the spacecraft going through the mid-2030s, Glen Fountain, the New Horizons encounter project manager at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory, said during the Facebook Live event.

But after the 2019 flyby of MU69, the spacecraft probably won't have much fuel left for special maneuvers, Singer said. "We won't be able to switch directions, but we'll still keep going out. It's possible that we'll be able to observe some other objects, but we haven't identified any of them yet. So we're going to keep an eye out to see what we can find."

Get ready for MU69!

For now, the team will remain focused on planning the MU69 flyby and sifting through data from Pluto. The researchers need to plan the spacecraft's every move far ahead of time; because of a 6-hour delay in communications with the distant spacecraft, they won't be able to tell the probe what to do in real time. Instead, the team must program New Horizons at least several months in advance to do every observation and data transmission. 

The spacecraft will take photos of MU69 along the way, starting out with pictures of a single-pixel speck from afar, Singer said. During the flyby, New Horizons will be able to get even closer to MU69 than it did with Pluto, because the small object has much less gravity. This means that the photos of MU69 will have a higher resolution than the photos of Pluto. Singer said that's something she and the team look forward to seeing. 

In April, New Horizons will be halfway to MU69 from Pluto, with 21 months of spaceflight left to go.

Microbes Could Survive Thin Air of Mars

Microbes that rank among the simplest and most ancient organisms on Earth could survive the extremely thin air of Mars, a new study finds. 

The Martian surface is presently cold and dry, but there is plenty of evidence suggesting that rivers, lakes and seas covered the Red Planet billions of years ago. Since there is life virtually wherever there is liquid water on Earth, scientists have suggested that life might have evolved on Mars when it was wet, and life could be there even now.

"In all the environments we find here on Earth, there is some sort of microorganism in almost all of them," said Rebecca Mickol, an astrobiologist at the Arkansas Center for Space and Planetary Sciences at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, and the lead author of the study. "It's hard to believe there aren't other organisms out there on other planets or moons as well." [Mars Methane - Could It Mean Life? (Video)]

Mickol and her team detailed their findings in the paper "Low Pressure Tolerance by Methanogens in an Aqueous Environment: Implications for Subsurface Life on Mars," which was published in the journal Origins of Life and Evolution of Biospheres.

Previous research detected methane, the simplest organic molecule, in the Martian atmosphere. While there are abiotic ways to produce methane — such as volcanic activity — much of this colorless, odorless, flammable gas in Earth's atmosphere is produced by life, such as cattle digesting food.

"One of the exciting moments for me was the detection of methane in the Martian atmosphere," Mickol said. "On Earth, most methane is produced biologically by past or present organisms. The same could possibly be true for Mars. Of course, there are a lot of possible alternatives to the methane on Mars and it is still considered controversial. But that just adds to the excitement."

On Earth, microbes known as methanogens produce methane, also known as natural gas. Methanogens typically live in swamps and marshes, but can also be found in the guts of cattle, termites and other herbivores, as well as in dead and decaying organic matter.

Methanogens are among the simplest and most ancient organisms on Earth. These microorganisms are anaerobes, meaning they do not require oxygen. Instead, they often rely on hydrogen for energy, and carbon dioxide is the main source of carbon atoms they use in creating organic molecules.

Methanogens contained in these test tubes, which also contained growth nutrients, sand and water, survived when subjected to Martian freeze-thaw cycles.

The fact that methanogens neither require oxygen nor photosynthesis means they could live just beneath the Martian surface, shielded from harsh levels of ultraviolet radiation on the Red Planet. This could make them ideal candidates for life on Mars.

However, the area just below the surface of Mars is exposed to extremely low atmospheric pressures, normally considered inhospitable to life. The surface pressure on Mars on average ranges from one-hundredth to one-thousandth that of the surface pressure of Earth over the course of the Martian year, too low for liquid water to last on the surface. In such thin air, water easily boils. (In contrast, the pressure at the highest point on Earth's surface, the top of Mount Everest, is about one-third that of Earth's surface pressure at sea level.)

To see if methanogens might survive such extremely thin air, Mickol and Timothy Kral, the senior author of the study and an astrobiologist at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, experimented with four species of methanogens. They included: Methanothermobacter wolfeii, Methanosarcina barkeri, Methanobacterium formicicum, and Methanococcus maripaludis. Previous experiments on these four species over the course of more than 20 years generated a lot of data on these organisms and their rates of survival in simulated Martian conditions. [Water on Mars: Wet Martian Discovery Explained (Infographic)]

The more recent set of experiments, which took about a year, involved growing the microbes in test tubes within liquids as a proxy for the fluids potentially flowing through underground Martian aquifers. The microbes were fed hydrogen gas, and the liquids were covered with cotton swabs, which in turn were covered with dirt simulating what might be found on the Martian surface. The insides of each test tube were then subjected to low pressures.

Oxygen kills these methanogens, and maintaining a low-pressure, oxygen-free environment "was a difficult task," Mickol said. Moreover, water evaporates quickly at low pressure, which can limit how long the experiments can last and can also clog the vacuum system with water.

Despite these problems, the researchers found that these methanogens all survived exposure of lengths varying from 3 to 21 days at pressures down to roughly six-thousandths of Earth's surface pressure. "These experiments show that for some species, low pressure may not really have any effect on the survival of the organism," Mickol said.

The scientists are also measuring methane to see whether methanogens are actively growing at low pressure and producing methane. 

"The next step is to also include temperature," Mickol said. "Mars is very, very cold, often getting down to -100ºC (-148ºF) at night, and sometimes, on the warmest day of the year, at noon, the temperature can rise above freezing. We'd run our experiments just above freezing, but the cold temperature would limit evaporation of the liquid media and it would create a more Mars-like environment."

Mickol stressed that these experiments do not prove life exists on other planets. "That being said, with the abundance of life on Earth, in all the different extremes of environments found here, it's quite possible there exists life — bacteria or tiny microorganisms — somewhere else in the Universe," she said. "We're just trying to explore that idea."

Anunnaki Base Discovered in the Bucegi Mountains — The Giant Aliens that Created Mankind

The article was originally published on November 30th, 2010, at 11:11 AM. It was improved, corrected and republished in May 2013.

I. Short Introduction 

In the summer of 2003, in an unexplored area of the Bucegi Mountains, a team from Zero Department (a top secret section of the Romanian Intelligence Service— SRI), had made an epochal discovery, which could had completely change mankind's destiny.
The United States of America exercised colossal diplomatic pressure on the Romanian Government, which intended to disclose the findings to the entire world. 

The implications became far more complex due to the brutal interference of the Order of the Illuminati, which sought to take control of both the location of the discovery, and the joint Romanian - American expedition.

The expert on strange phenomena, and also the leader of operations for the Romanian State, Cezar Brad, is the “hero” of the shocking events that occurred in the Bucegi Mountains. He also had two memorable meetings with a leading representative of the Illuminati, and top Bilderberg member.

The location of the alien base inside the 'Masivul Bucegi' mountain, Romania. Also, notice the locations of the Sphinx of Bucegi and the Babele monoliths above the alien base.

II. A Strange Visit From the Most Powerful Bilderberg Member

In May 2003, Cezar was visited by a highly important character. The meeting request came through SRI, as a result of the government's intervention. The person was a foreigner, but spoke the Romanian language very well. He was also familiar with the country. 

The SRI informed Cezar that the visitor was a high ranking member of a very important Masonic lodge from Italy, he was a noble, and had very strong financial influence in Romania.

His political influence was also very high, since he was able to penetrate the wall of SRI agents and reach the DZ.

Cezar felt a high pressure and a heavy weight around this person. He was surrounded by a cloud of heavy, unpleasant radiation which concealed his true intentions. For this meeting, Cezar prepared thoroughly, isolating himself in a room and falling into a state of deep meditation, to learn more about the person.

A SRI helicopter brought this arrogant, tall gentleman, wearing a black suit. He had a cane with ivory handle and gold inlay. His face expressed harshness and his green eyes had a strange effect, radiating unusual coldness. He presented himself as Senior Massini (probably not the real name). He was very confident of his power and created the impression of a person who was used to give orders. 

He was the leader of one of the most important Masonic Lodges of Europe and also to one of the most influential Masonic organizations in the world: the Bilderberg Group.

Massini was very direct and stated that humans are of two kinds: those who can be manipulated and ruled (these form the majority), and those who have certain virtues and strong personalities. He said that his group is part of the highest Masonic order and is very interested in the outcome of the discussion.

Mister Massini explained that the Bilderberg Group is not a Masonic lodge, and it means much more than that. He said that the lodges are just facades and the real power is much higher than the thirty-third hierarchical level. Massini invited Cezar to join the group, letting him understand that he will have many advantages. 
According to Cezar, Massini was both physically and psychical strong, which contrasted with his age. Unfortunately for him, his power was centered on a huge ego, arrogance and sense of superiority over the rest.
Massini informed Cezar that he requested him personally, using his political influence, because he was impressed by Cezar's psychic power.

            III. The Pentagon Spies With Satellites
     
A Pentagon satellite used for geodetic espionage, based on bionic technology and shape waves, discovered in 2002 a separate unit in a specific area of the Bucegi Mountains. The empty space inside the mountain had no correspondence with the outside, and looked like it was carved from the inside, by intelligent beings. It was definitely not a cave.

The satellite scan of the mountain revealed two major energetic blocks. These barriers were made of artificial energy. The first one was like an energetic wall, blocking the access to the tunnel, while the second one was shaped like a dome (or hemisphere), and was located at the opposite end of the tunnel, near the center of the mountain. 
Massini was sure that inside the dome they will discover something extremely important. 

He had deep knowledge about the origin of this discovery and had knew of the existence of at least one item located inside the great hemispherical hall. The tunnel and dome were strangely aligned with the rock formations from the top of the mountain, known as "Babele" and the "Sphinx of Bucegi".

The Romanian Sphinx of Bucegi

IV. A Similar Structure In Iraq

The Pentagon team noted that the hemispherical energy barrier had the same vibrational frequency and the same shape as one other top secret underground structure that they had discovered prior, near Baghdad, Iraq. 

Shortly after this discovery, the Iraqi war broke out and after a few months, the Americans had access to the biggest secret in the area -- which the Iraqis knew nothing of.   

Massini explained Cezar that the content of that discovery had to do with Earth's mysterious past and the history of their secret organizations. 

When the Pentagon investigation noted the similarities between the underground structure of Baghdad and the one from the Bucegi Mountains, Massini and his masonic lodge became extremely agitated. Initially, they've almost panicked. The panic was due to the fact that this structure - much larger and more complex than the one from Iraq - is on Romania’s territory.

The location of the alien base, on Romania's map

[Apparently, Romania is probable to play an important role in the downfall of the secret societies that control the world and enslave mankind. It was also suggested that somewhere above the Bucegi Mountains, an energetic pyramid is located, which is invisible to the naked eye, and contains the real history of our planet. One can imagine their panic]. 

Massini brought to the drilling site an ultra sophisticated, hard rock drilling machine, used by the US military. The device used a strong plasma jet and a sort of rotating magnetic field, literally melting the rock with no visible effort. 

V. The Secrets of the Bucegi Mountains -- Year 2003    
They were able to achieve penetration about 60-70 meters away from the first energetic barrier, and reached the first gallery, which looked like a subway tunnel. Its walls were perfectly polished. 

At the end of the tunnel there was a massive stone gate, which was protected by an invisible energetic barrier. 

Three members of the first special intervention team tried to touch the door, and immediately died of cardiac arrest.

Any object (rock, plastic, metal or wood) threw at the barrier, immediately turned into fine dust. Two generals from the Pentagon and the U.S. presidential adviser arrived on the spot.

VI. The Grand Gallery    
Beyond the formidable energy barrier, which caused the deaths of three people, there was also the solid rock gate. On the tunnel’s wall, just in front of the gate, there was an area of 20 square cm, on which there was precisely drawn an equilateral triangle pointing up. The square was located between the huge grinding stone gate and the invisible energy barrier. 

Tunnel and dome inside the Bucegi Mountains

Cezar felt that there is some kind of compatibility between the energetic barrier and himself, something like a mutual “sympathy”. 

His hand lightly touched the surface of the energetic barrier and he felt a tingling on the skin. The shield was completely harmless to him, so he stepped forward, passing right through it. The U.S. officials were absolutely stunned. 

Cezar estimated the barrier to be no more than an inch thick. 

He touched the triangle drawing located in the center of the square, and the gigantic stone door silently slid to the left, into the wall. That command also cancelled the energetic barrier, giving them access to a huge room, which was later named "The Grand Gallery".

Even though there was no visible light source, the Grand Gallery was perfectly lit. 

After turning off the first energetic barrier, the huge hemispherical shield at the other end of the room, suddenly tuned to a higher vibration and started emitting higher radiations.
On a closer analysis, the wall inside the Grand Gallery seemed synthetic but also felt like something organic was part of it. It had the color of oil, but the reflections were green and blue. 

Later tests revealed that the wall's material was somewhat rough to the touch, but it could not be scratched or bent. It withstood any attempt of breaking, piercing or cutting it. Later, the scientists tried to burn the material, but in a mysterious way, the flames were somehow absorbed within it, leaving it untouched.

The American scientists agreed that the material is a mysterious combination of organic and inorganic matter. After 280 feet, the gallery suddenly turned to the right in a sharp angle. Further ahead a blue, sparkly, light could be seen. The blue light at the end of the gallery was the reflection of the protective shield of energy.

VII. A Similar Base in Iraq    
The U.S. adviser on national security issues received a call and he was notified that the energetic shield from Baghdad, Iraq, had been suddenly activated, and it was also pulsating at a higher frequency. 

In front of the shield from Baghdad, a hologram of our planet appeared, which sequentially and progressively depicted the European Continent, then moved to the south-east, then it showed the Bucegi Mountains from Romania and, finally, it showed their own location within the structure’s corridor. It was obvious that the two hemispherical energy shields were in a direct connection. 

Basically, the Iraqi base had been notified about the presence of people inside the Romanian base.

The bad news was that the U.S. presidency was notified and it contacted the Romanian diplomacy. In just a few minutes, the whole operation had been disclosed, and Lord Massini's plan went down the drain. 

The U.S. presidency demanded to take control over the secret base and the entire operation. The Romanian politicians, who knew nothing of the undergoing secret operation, panicked.

The Pentagon's generals present at the scene, had been informed that Washington demanded an urgent meeting. 

VIII. CSAT (Supreme Defense Council) Emergency Meeting 
An emergency session of the Supreme Defense Council (CSAT) had created a huge wave of sympathy for the Zero Department. 

Most were shaken by the news they’ve received. The CSAT's decision was to continue the research, but under Zero Department's complete control. They've had also demanded an inventory of everything found in the Great Room. 

From Bucharest (Romania's capital), the orders came in waves, canceling each other. Some were very vehement and strict, while others were elusive -- denoting the huge tension. 

CSAT's members were in continuous session, keeping in touch with the Bucegi Mountains team. After discussing everything for hours, they had decided to make the discovery public. The Romanian government was to make a formal statement to the entire world. Some CSAT members vehemently opposed the decision.

IX. Romania's Official Statement    
When the U.S. diplomacy had been informed that Romania will disclose the discoveries, everything tuned into chaos. The President was called for a direct phone conversation with the White House. 

Within hours, the U.S. blocked all financial transactions with Romania and its access to all other financial institutions. Romania was about to declare “State of emergency” in the Bucegi Mountains and the capital. 

The talks between the U.S. officials arrived in Bucharest and the Romanian Emergency Department took place without a translator. The U.S. officials were verbally violent, constantly shouting and uttering threats to Romania and its officials. 

Romania's official disclosure to the world would have provided photographic evidence and anything else essential for a complete clarification. Leading scientists and researchers from all over the planet were to be invited for in depth studies. 

But most importantly, it would have revealed the truth about mankind's distant past and the real history -- which according to what Cezar witnessed inside the Grand Gallery, is almost entirely counterfeit.

The reaction of the U.S. government was so brutal because that disclosure would have shattered their global influence and power, in a instant. 

The official reason cited by the U.S., was not to create panic in the world, but they had omitted to acknowledge that the current state of global anguish is a direct result of deliberate deceit and manipulation conducted by the Freemasonry and other secret societies, for millenia. 

There was also an intervention from the Vatican (if you wonder how did the Vatican found out about this discovery, then you should know that they are at the very top of the world's control pyramid, and their religious piety is merely a facade — read: The Darkest Secrets of the Vatican), in which the Pope (!) called for moderation before this great, fundamental, step for mankind. 

The Pope promised to make certain documents available to the Romanian state from the ancient papal secret archives, which were of great importance for Romania. The documents were backing up the discoveries (yes, that's how powerful a Pope is).

After 24 hours of negotiations, a final agreement occurred between Romania and the USA. The Romanian state was to postpone the disclosure, and gradually present everything to the people.

X. The Projection Room
The Grand Gallery ended abruptly with a giant auditorium, 30 meters in height (98,5 feet) and a length of 100 meters (328 feet). The Projection Room was smaller in size and it was protected by an energetic shield. 

Advancing towards the shield, a portion of it disappeared, in the shape of a door, allowing access inside it. The shield protected the room by any outside influences. Once inside the room, the shield became compact and looked like a white-golden wall.

Basically, the shield formed this dome-shaped room, with curved walls and ceiling. At the back of the room, at a height of a about 10-12 meters (33-39,5 feet), the shield ended where it touched the room's stone wall. 

In this wall there were three enormous tunnel holes: one located straight ahead, and the other two were symmetrical on both sides. They were lit by a diffuse light in a greenish tint. Both sides decided to prohibit the access to these tunnels and a protocol was signed between them.

XI. Tables For Giants    
A series of huge stone tables were arranged along the right and left walls (five on each side), following their curvature. The tables were about 2 meters in height (6,6 feet). 

The table tops had precision cut-in reliefs, different signs of an unknown writing and characters that resembled ancient cuneiform.  

The writing also contained more general symbols, such as triangles and circles. Although the signs were not painted, they've had a fluorescent light radiating in various colors, different for each table.

On some of the tables there were different objects, which appeared to be technical tools. From many of these tools, translucent-white wires descended to the floor, and entered inside shiny, silver-like, rectangular boxes. These boxes were placed directly on the floor.

At a closer inspection, the cables were extremely flexible and lightweight, and light pulses could be seen circulating along their length. Each time someone approached the tables, a holographic projection was automatically activated, presenting aspects of a particular scientific field. 

The three dimensional images were perfect and had height of almost two and a half meters (8,2 ft). 

The projections were automated and ran by themselves, but at the same time they were interactive, and changed according to the signs touched on the tables' surface.

XII. A Great Discovery: Holographic DNA Combinations Between Extraterrestrial Species  
Because of the great height of the tables, the scientists used special tripods to climb at a comfortable height. At a closer investigation they've observed a dark-glassy material covering the table tops. The material was divided into several large squares, bounded by straight lines, which formed some kind of a grid.
One of the tables contained information from the field of biology, and it projected images of plants and animals, some of which were completely unknown to the scientists. 

After touching one of the squares, a hologram presenting the structure of the human body was activated. The hologram was constantly rotating, highlighting various areas of the human body.

Touching other squares activated holographic projections of extraterrestrial beings, from other planetary systems. Simultaneously touching two different squares, a complex scientific analysis was projected, showing the DNA of both species, and compatibility possibilities between the two.

On the sides, in vertical lines, there were written explanations in the same, alien alphabet. At the end of the simulation, a crossbreed between the two species was displayed.

XIII. Real Giants   
Judging by the size of all the objects within the Projection Room, the creators of the edifice were probably very tall beings.  

A confirmation of giant humanoid skeletons found in Romania could be found in a newspaper called “Ziarul”:  

"The team from the newspaper is accompanied by researcher Vasile Rudan, who noted that the people of the Bozioru village have concrete evidence: a cemetery with skeletons of giants. It was discovered by chance over 20 years ago, when the authorities decided to plant apple trees in the village of Scaieni. Digging on a hill, the villagers discovered huge skeletons, measuring more than 2,40 m (7 ft 10 in).

"Dragoi Ilie, one of those who worked in the apple orchard, takes us to the spot. Mister Ilie shows us around the orchard: 'Everywhere are tombs of giants. We were making holes, to plant saplings, when we found a human head as big as a pumpkin. Neither one of us had ever seen anything like that. We were all amazed. Digging further, we've found some bones of the feet, as big as the vineyard poles. The dead one must have been very big.'"

The Projection Room contained detailed information from fields like: physics, cosmology, astronomy, architecture, technology, biology, genetics, and even religion. Because it contained so much information, the room was compared to a library.

In the middle of the room, there was a podium-like area which contained an interesting device. The scientists speculated that it might have been a device to enhance various cerebral functions.

XV. Romania's Control Panel  
Next to it there was a command panel, covered with various geometric symbols, in different colors. There were also two sliding levers and a red button, in the center of the panel, above all other commands. A holographic simulation explained the purpose of the button.

It showed an image of the Carpathian Mountains as seen from 25 km (15,5 miles) above them and next, an enormous quantity of water flooded the lowlands and plains.

Next, from the territories of Romania, Hungary and Ukraine, more streams of water appear, heading towards the Transylvanian plateau, in the form of huge rivers. The image focused on Romania's territory and showed most of its surface covered by the waters of a great sea. Some of the tallest mountain peaks could now be seen as small, floating islands.

Next, the waters begun to withdraw, as soon as the leavers found on the panel were activated, leaving sunk only a small area near the Retezat Godeanu mountain. A true manual.

XVI. A Mysterious Amphora
Behind the control panel there was a square pedestal, of about three meters (9 ft 10 in) per side, on which a mysterious amphora was resting. Lord Massini had knowledge of its existence and, for him and his Masonic elite, this was the most important discovery.

The amphora contained a very fine white powder. The researchers were dismayed to find that the powder was a high purity formula of monatomic gold, with an unknown crystalline structure. 

The gold powder in its pure form greatly stimulates certain waves and energy exchanges at cellular and neural level. This causes an accelerated process of rejuvenation. 

Theoretically, a man can live in the same physical body for several thousand years, provided they consume from time to time, a well-defined quantity of monatomic gold powder. This explains many puzzling aspects about the incredible longevity of some important figures and uncovers part of the hidden intentions of the global elite.

XVII. The Real History of Our Planet 
Behind the amphora, in the middle of the square, there was a huge dome that projected holograms. It displayed the main aspects of humanity's most distant past, from its very beginning. Cezar explained that according to the images projected by the hologram, about 90% of mankind's official history is false and counterfeit. Darwin's evolutionary theory is also incorrect.

In the middle of the square is a huge dome which projects a hologram of moving parts. It contains the main aspects of the very distant past of humanity, from its very beginning. Cezar explained that according to the images projected by the hologram, Darwin's evolutionary theory is completely false. 

Read: Mankind's Forbidden History Holds the Answer for the "Missing Link" 

The true origin of man is depicted in a condensed holographic form. After these lessons of truth, we can say that 90% of the official history of mankind is false and counterfeit. Unbelievable, but what is now considered to have really happened in our history, never did, while the so called "myths" and "legends" are almost entirely true. 

Also, most archaeological theories are false. For example, the dinosaurs did not went extinct 65 million years ago, and the old continents of Lemuria and Atlantis existed. This strange inversion caused many problems and conflicts between people in our past. For a correct dating of the presented events, a star map corresponding to that period was projected on the background.

Although the time period covered by the projections was very large (several hundred thousand years), and the procession cycle of the Earth is 25,920 years, by observing the number of “Platonic years” (the 25,920-year cycle) the exact dating of the events was possible. The Bucegi Mountains are 50-55 thousand years old. 

XVIII. Shocking Revelations 
Cezar saw what happened during the so called Great Flood and where the human civilization originated, but he decided not to reveal this, as the revelations are too shocking for the mentality, ideas and knowledge of the contemporary man. 

Personally, I think people like him are also responsible for the current state of unawareness and latency of the human species. We have been lied and manipulated for millenia, and as soon as we are close to the truth, someone decides that we are not yet ready to hear it. 

This is an arrogant and selfish approach! The people are as ready today as they will ever be, and the sooner the truth will be released, the better. Having more pieces of the puzzle will make them accept the truth easier and, more importantly, will make convince them to take action against the manipulators and enslavers.

In a disturbing display of images, the existence of Jesus and his crucifixion was also presented. The projections revealed that many of those who witnessed the crucifixion came there from other historical periods. 

They were wearing the same kind of clothing as the rest of the people, but their facial features were different, hence they were constantly covering their faces. The hologram also presented fragments from the spiritual lives of other exceptional characters of mankind's distant past, including people that we know nothing of. 

In those times, the social and population distribution were completely different from what is known today, so the archaeologists and anthropologists should review their theories from scratch.

XIX. The Three Mysterious Tunnels 
The discovered tunnels are thousands of miles in length and lead to three different areas of the planet. The one in the left connected the Romanian base to a yet to be discovered underground base somewhere in Egypt (which was definitely discovered and explored by now).

The right tunnel led to a similar but smaller structure, in the "Tibetan Plateau". This tunnel had three secondary ramifications. One led to an underground area near the Romanian city of Buzaru (close to the "Carpathian Bend"). Another one led to the already mentioned Iraqi base, while the final ramification led to an underground base in the "Gobi Desert", in Mongolia.

XX. The Third Tunnel -- A Secret World
The middle tunnel was the most important to both Lord Massini and the U.S. Government, which strongly requested to be kept secret to the public. This tunnel descended to extreme depths towards a veritable underground world, located near the center of our planet. 

Those of you who are not familiar to the hollow earth theory, please note that there are important figures who support the theory that all planets are probably hollow on the inside, and bring interesting scientific arguments to support their claims. 

Also, there are some very interesting and beautiful stories about people who allegedly traveled to this world. The realm is commonly known as Agartha, and the third tunnel was probably leading straight to it. It only makes sense that the shadow elite were not interested to make the discovery known to the people.

Intense preparations begun for expeditions inside all 3 tunnels, as following: the first one to Egypt, the second to Tibet, and the third one to Earth’s core.

I base my statement on the extremely similar writing style and the fact that the author had direct access to this above-Top Secret alien base -- something that couldn't have happened unless the person was an insider.)
 
In 2009, a local television “Antena 1” briefly presented these events: 

After the program, they've received an anonymous phone threat:
The following is a transcript of the phone call. The reporter from "Antena 1" answered the phone:
Reporter: Hello, good afternoon!

Anonymous caller: We’re sending you a warning: be very careful! Stop talking about the Bucegi [Mountains]!

R: Who are you?

A.c.: This information must remain at the level of some structures and must not be made public! You've entered a dangerous game. You are young, you have families... there are enough subjects in this country to speak about.

R: Mister, who are you?

A.c.: Don’t wish to know us and to be yourselves interviewed by us! That’s all I've had to say.

Thank you for reading and always remember: "the truth is out there". Never stop searching...

Attack of the Eggs: Odd Encounters with Ovalular UFOs

 Micah Hanks

Modern UFOlogy, at least since its formalization in the early 1950s under the USAF’s Project Bluebook, has been rife with varied reports of unusual aerial objects. The sheer variety of shapes attributed to these UFOs, ranging from the famous “flying saucers” of yesteryear, to the modern reports of massive, looming triangles sneaking through the night skies, do little to help with understanding what such objects may be, let alone their possible sources.

If anything, the UFO mystery has derived more problems from the varieties of the experiences contained within; often, no two reports are alike enough to be able to account for the appearance of mystery that they imply.

Amidst the varieties of UFO descriptions and shapes are, however, varieties that do appear frequently enough that they can fall within categories. The aforementioned flying discs or “saucers” are among the best examples, along with the equally compelling flying triangles that are still often reported. Other varieties include deltoid or chevron-shaped objects, long cigar or torpedo-shaped aircraft, missiles or rockets, spheres, cylinders, and perhaps more often than all the rest, amorphous nighttime illuminations that imply little else but some illuminative energy source.

Another variety of object which has appeared time and time again involves flying egg-shaped objects. The famous Socorro, New Mexico incident of April 24, 1964, is widely regarded as one of the most convincing UFO cases of the last century; while some believe it had involved a Bell helicopter with an experimental lunar landing module attached, the description given by the primary witness, a State Police Officer named Lonnie Zamora, seemed to indicate little more than a massive egg-shaped object with three or four landing legs, which produced flames and a loud roaring sound as it flew through the sky.

A similar aircraft was described to me by veteran researcher and friend Christopher O’Brien, author of The Mysterious Valley and, more recently, his exhaustive Stalking the Herd, which examines the cattle mutilation phenomenon. O’Brien described his encounter as follows:

“I had a daylight sighting of what appeared to be a 30′-40′ in diameter flying chicken egg on March 27, 2005 in Sedona, AZ. It was matte white colored; appeared to be 1-1200′ in altitude; flying about .6 -.7 miles away about 70-80 mph and it was headed south-to-north up Oak Creek Canyon. The following day I found out that a group of hikers in the canyon also saw and reported a strange, silent, flying egg that flew above them. They estimated its size as 50-60′ in diameter.”

A more recent encounter involving a egg-shaped UFO, which I managed to discover in the archives of NASA’s Aviation Safety Reporting System, described a near collision between pilots of a small engine aircraft with what they described, once again, as resembling a “flying chicken egg”. The pilots who filed the report suspected the craft had been some unidentified hobby or experimental plane.

However, perhaps one of the most unusual UFO reports detailing so-called “flying eggs” is notable not just for the objects it describes, but for the era in which it took place. The observation in question here occurred from aboard the USS Supply, a Naval World Warschooner-rigged iron steamer built in the late nineteenth century. It was commissioned in April of 1898 by the U.S. Navy following it’s purchase from the International Navigation Company for a sum of $325,000.00. The Supply would go on to see service during the Spanish-American war, serving as a supply ship for U.S. fleets in Cuban waters.

Following the war, after a short period removed from service, the USS Supply would be recommissioned for service in the Asiatic Station of the Pacific. An anomalous incident occurred on February 28, 1904, at which time three members aboard the USS Supply had claimed to see a trio of large, illuminated objects coasting along through the sky as the vessel sailed approximately 300 miles west of San Francisco. One of the the three witnesses, a lieutenant aboard the ship named Frank Schofield, wrote a description of the three illuminated craft, which recalled them as “three bright red egg-shaped and circular objects.” The strange craft appeared to be traveling in formation; at the time of their appearance to Schofield and his company, the objects had been moving beneath the cloud deck, eventually swooping upward and moving above the ceiling and “away from the earth.” The sighting lasted a total of about three minutes.

Schofield, who would later be promoted to position of Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Battle Fleet, also claimed that the largest of the three objects, which presumably took the lead position amidst the three travelling objects, had appeared roughly six-times the size of the sun in the sky. Again, taking into consideration that this encounter took place in 1904, there are extreme limitations placed on what, precisely, the craft observed from aboard the USS Supply could have been. One possible solution might envolve a variety of plasma phenomenon, such as ball lightning; although the description of their flight behavior (namely their flying formation) presents difficulties in terms of reconciling with this explanation.

Does this early UFO report illustrate one of at least a handful of early twentieth century UFO incidents that occurred prior to the advent of more advanced wartime technologies, the likes of which would appear during the World Wars to come in the following years? Alternatively, could the three men, despite Lieutenant Frank Schofield’s eventual rise in stature, have merely fabricated the story?

Even taking into consideration the advances of the coming decades, the greatest known technologies to arise during World War II could not provide a technological explanation for the appearance of the strange, anomalous craft witnessed by the crew aboard the USS Supply in February of 1904. Perhaps their ultimate purpose and origin will remain mysterious, as UFO cases like this so often (and frustratingly) tend to do.

What’s in the Newly Released CIA Files on Psychics and UFOs?

 Paul Seaburn

The American public can access these documents from the comfort of their homes.

Approximately 13 million pages of declassified documents from the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) were released online this week and are available for viewing in the CIA’s Electronic Reading Room on its website, which can be accessed by anyone. The documents include formerly classified information on UFO sightings, psychic experiments and other paranormal subjects.

Where should you begin your search? Start with Uri Geller. According to his files, the self-proclaimed psychic was tested by the CIA in 1973 and “demonstrated his paranormal perceptual ability in a convincing and unambiguous manner.” That meant he was able to reproduce pictures of grapes drawn by agents in a sealed room.

Uri Geller’s drawings from the declassified CIA files

The next thing to look for in the database is how this related to the development of the Stargate Project in 1978 whose purpose was to investigate the use of such psychic abilities, especially over long distances, in military and intelligence operations. One document details how the CIA recruited subjects and attempted to train them to become a psychic weapon for which there is “no known defense.”

In view of the obvious military value of being able to disturb sensitive enemy equipment, it is to the advantage of the Army to assess the validity of the claims.

The CIA didn’t just investigate celebrity psychics and human mental weapons. One report called “Magician Walks Into The Laboratory” describes questioning a magician from Tbilisi, Georgia, who claimed his hands had healing powers. Why?

It would be well to register (for example, photograph) this strange phenomenon.

Once you’ve satisfied your thirst for psychic secrets, move on to the UFO files. One document estimated there have been at least 1,500 official reports of UFO sightings from 1947 up until the early 1990s (documents less than 25 years old are still classified) and 20 percent of them were listed as unexplained. One such unsolved event occurred in June 1966 on the border between Iran and what was then the USSR and the document included the eyewitness’ description.

We suddenly observed a brilliant white sphere approximating the colouration and intensity of [a] full bright moon. The sphere appeared suddenly and at the first sighting was approximately three times the size of a full moon. Toward the end of this period it became very faint and its enormous size seemed to fill the sky.

The CIA files include numerous photographs of UFOs

That witness might have benefited from reading the CIA’s now-declassified document on “How To Investigate a Flying Saucer.” Many other reports from around the world are more descriptive, including “two fiery disks” seen in 1952 above uranium mines in the former Belgian Congo that made a “penetrating hissing and buzzing sound” and another 1952 UFO in Spain seen “leaving a wide smoke trail.”

This is just the tip of the 800,000-document iceberg and you haven’t even begun to look at the Kissinger, Castro and Kennedy files.

Leave that to the political conspiracy theorists. Just type “UFO” in the search box and read what you’ve been missing.

Roswell UFO Thief Gets Severe Punishment

 Paul Seaburn

What put Roswell, New Mexico, on the map? If you said, “The UFO that crashed there in 1947,” you’d be wrong … because the UFO crashed (allegedly, of course) many miles away. However, the debris was brought to the Roswell Army Air Field, linking its name to the incident forever. Roswell residents take pride in their UFO heritage and no place shows it better than the International UFO Museum And Research Center.

Built in 1991, the museum welcomed visitors with a large flying saucer mounted to the wall out front. That is, until March 19th, 2016, when it was stolen from a back lot where it was being repaired. Roswell may love UFOs but it’s not good for their health – the flying saucer had been damaged by a recent snowstorm.

Fortunately, Roswell cared enough for its UFO to keep it under surveillance and the camera caught three individuals loading it into a pickup truck at 3 am. The saucer was later found two miles from the museum – damaged again and this time beyond repair. One thief was identified by the video and 17-year-old Newman Seely was arrested and charged with one felony count of larceny and one felony count of conspiracy. That’s right … conspiracy. Roswell is definitely serious about its UFO, as Eric and Carolyn Jackson pointed out in media reports after the theft.

You think of things like that happening only in large metropolitan cities not small ones like this… People want to see these things… then you just take the spaceship away? That’s terrible.

Residents like Marvin Myers took it personally in Facebook posts.

I don’t care for all this alien stuff here in Roswell, but this was just stupid. In a way, this was an assault on every person in Roswell.

Inside the Roswell museum

Prosecutors may have been upset because Seely refused to divulge a motive for the crime and would not reveal the identities of his accomplices. Or they could have been angry at the fact that the flying saucer cost $500 in 1991 but the price of its replacement will be many times that. In fact, nearly a year after the original was found destroyed, a new one has not yet been commissioned.

The original UFO was beyond repair

According to Roswell TV station KRQE, justice has finally been served and the punishment was severe. Newman Seely pleaded guilty to the crimes of conspiring to and stealing the Rosewell flying saucer and was sentenced to up to a year in a juvenile facility.

A year! Let that be a lesson to anyone thinking of committing a crime that affects the lifeblood of the city of Roswell, New Mexico. They will find you and lock you up. Don’t mess with Roswell.

A Crashed UFO And Telephone Weirdness

 Nick Redfern

Back in 1991, UFO researcher Leonard Stringfield published his then-latest of many reports on crashed UFOs. I had read all of Stringfield’s earlier reports, booklets and books, but this one stood out for me. The reason being that it referenced the alleged crash of a UFO, in 1964. The location was an area of woodland and fields near the Staffordshire, England market-town of Penkridge. It’s a town only a short drive from where I grew up as a kid. At the time, however, I was down in the south of England, in Harlow, Essex. But, I made a note to look into the affair next time I was back in the Staffordshire area.

As for Stringfield’s story, it was an intriguing one. Unfortunately, and as was the case with so many of Stringfield’s informants, the name of the person who provided the story was not listed. Or, rather, it was, but in the form of a pseudonym: “S.M. Brannigan.” According to the story, back in early 1964 “Brannigan” was serving in the US military aboard “…a specially rigged LST, a flagship that was attached to a naval amphibious force at an unspecified point in either the Caribbean or the Atlantic…”

Stringfield’s source informed him that it was his job to intercept and translate Soviet military transmissions. One such transmission – of early 1964 – stood out. Reportedly, the US Navy monitored Soviet chatter concerning the tracking and spiraling to Earth of nothing less than a UFO. Supposedly, the malfunctioning UFO split into two segments: one coming down somewhere in Germany and the other in a wooded/field area near to Penkridge. There were rumors of “remains” and of “bodies” hastily and secretly recovered by UK and German forces.

Well, it was quite a story! But, it lacked a real name for “Brannigan.” And it also lacked solid data, back-up sources, and a specific date. Nevertheless, I have found myself faced with less material to work with – and on more than a few occasions, too. I looked into it for a while, but I could not find a single piece of data to support the story. Now, we move on to 1995. That was the year in which a woman with a deep interest in UFOs, Irene Bott, established the Staffordshire UFO Group. One year later, in September 1996, Irene had a first anniversary SUFOG conference in the area, at which I spoke.

During the booze-quaffing session after the gig, I told Irene about the 1964 affair and she found it all very interesting. To the extent that she made mention of it in the local (but now defunct) newspaper, The Chase Post (which covered the towns and villages in and around Staffordshire’s Cannock Chase). It was an article that led an elderly man named Harold South to contact Irene with a startling story. According to South, he was on-site shortly after the 1964 crash occurred and while hordes of British military personnel were racing around, closing roads through a particular part of the Cannock Chase, and loading a small, delta-shaped vehicle (or parts of it) aboard a large, transporter vehicle.

South also claimed he was later visited by local police, who, he believed, had seen him as he drove close to the makeshift cordon and tracked him down by the license-plate of his vehicle. He also said they confiscated his camera, which he eventually got back, minus the film – which allegedly showed shots of the crash-site. Well, that was quite as story, too! It was not until December 1996 that me and Irene were able to arrange to meet with South in person – which we did, at his small apartment in the town of Brownhills. We called him, around the end of November, to see if one particular date was suitable. It was. Then, on the morning of that particular date (December 11, 1996), we called him again, just to make sure a meet was still cool. Yes, it was.

Well, that was all good. Or, at least, we thought it was. When we got to South’s apartment, his entire demeanor had changed. He didn’t want to talk to us – at all. He was clearly a worried man. He did, at least, invite us in. If nothing else, that was something positive. We asked South what was wrong and, for a few moments, he hemmed and hawed. Finally, however, he told us about the reason for his sudden change of heart. According to South, in between us phoning him and arriving at his home he had received a phone call from the British Ministry of Defense, warning him not to talk to us!

Yes, you know what I’m going to say: that was quite a story too! I have heard a lot of similar such controversial claims over the years, many of which led nowhere. This one, however, was a bit different. We asked South if anyone had called since the MoD phoned. He replied, “No.” So, we asked if we could use his phone and dial 1471. It’s a UK service that allows the caller to obtain the number of the previous, incoming call. Providing, that is, it’s not withheld by the caller.

Sure enough there was a number. We dialed it as South looked on, not unlike someone awaiting a firing squad or castration without anaesthetic. Or both. Not only did we dial, but someone answered. It was a woman who was very cagey about identifying herself by name. We were, however, able to prove the number had taken us to an operator-service that was run by the military. It was responsible for channeling calls to and from military establishments in the West Midlands and Staffordshire regions of the UK. In other words, the call to South could have come from any number of military bases in the area. But, all we had was the operator-number that called South, rather than the originating source that was connected to South by the operator.

Needless to say, it didn’t take us anywhere. But something did. South added that as well as the Ministry of Defense warning him not to speak with us, rather oddly they gave him a number to call in the event that he “might want to speak with” them again. So, we asked for the number and dialed it. This one took us to an office of the Ministry of Defense Guard Service at Whittington Barracks, near the city of Lichfield.

The voice on the other end of the line was cordial (throughout the brief conversation the man at the other end genially called Irene “flower”), but careful about what he said. He gave up nothing at all and the conversation was soon ended. He clearly reacted when we phoned though, since he wanted to know how we had got an internal number at the Guards Service, rather than their main-line. Well, he told us nothing, so we did likewise and said our goodbyes. “Bye, flower,” he said to Irene.

Over the next couple of years, Irene got a few more snippets of data, which collectively suggested there may have been some truth to the story that originally surfaced via “S. M. Brannigan” and Leonard Stringfield, and which was later expanded on by Harold South. It’s an episode that I still occasionally think about, nineteen years after we met that worried old man. Of course, none of what happened on that freezing cold, winter’s morning in December 1996 confirms aliens crashed near Penkridge 51 years ago. All I can say for sure, is that we were able to 100 percent prove that on the day in question – when we were due to speak with him about his crashed UFO claims – Harold South had a call directed to his home from a military operator-based service, and he was given an internal number at the MoD Guard Service, in case he might “want to speak” with someone about his experience.

All of this begs a couple of questions: (A) why was it made so easy for me and Irene to find the military operator’s number via the 1471 service? And (B) why was South even given a number at Whittington Barracks at all? Irene and I wondered if we had a hidden whistle-blower somewhere in our midst. One who was feeding us a few snippets of data (in the form of odd but easily traceable phone calls), in an attempt to try and convince us of the validity of the 1964 crash. But, in a way that didn’t compromise his or her identity.

Admittedly, I have no firm opinion on what went down on that day in December 1996, except to say it was very strange, deeply memorable, and extremely intriguing. Beyond that? Nothing but a mass of questions that are unlikely to ever be answered.

6 upcoming space missions worth keeping an eye on

By Ryan Whitwam

Having pretty thoroughly explored the Earth, humanity has since turned its attention to the stars. There are a myriad of missions already in the history books, and many more underway. We’re at a pivotal time in our exploration of space. With a bit of luck and science, we may soon be able to explore more freely and understand the nature of the universe — it’s a bright future. These are six of the most important upcoming missions that will get us there.

1. Mars 2020 rover

The Curiosity rover has been a huge success. After landing on mars in 2012, the rover has lasted much longer than the original design life, and has traveled farther on mars than any robot before it. The next step is the as-yet unnamed Mars 2020 rover. As the placeholder name implies, NASA wants to launch this mission in 2020. The rover will be based on the incredibly successful design of Curiosity, but the instruments it takes along for the ride will be vastly improved.

The Mars 2020 rover will be equipped to investigate the geology of Mars with an eye toward detecting the signs of past (or present) life on the Red Planet. It will use Raman Spectroscopy and x-ray lithochemistry to identify elemental components and organic materials on Mars with much more sensitivity than Curiosity can. It may also carry an experiment to produce breathable oxygen from Mars’ predominantly carbon dioxide atmosphere. This could have major implications for future manned missions.

2. James Webb Space Telescope launch

We’ve been talking a lot about the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) lately — NASA has completed construction of the hardware, and is currently testing it on the ground. It has also asked astronomers to begin submitting proposals for time on the telescope after it’s online. This telescope will be much more powerful the Hubble, which has a mere 48 square feet of reflective surface compared with JWST’s 270 square feet.

The James Webb Space Telescope will be able to seem further into the infrared than Hubble, meaning it can study objects that are obscured by dust or gas. In order to avoid avoid contaminating heat, the telescope will be placed in the L2 Lagrange point with the Earth permanently between the telescope and the sun. The launch is currently on track for October of 2018.

3. New Horizons Kuiper Belt Extended Mission

NASA’s New Horizons mission was big news in 2015 when it reached Pluto after nearly a decade in space. It’s not over for the plucky little probe—NASA has added a Kuiper Belt Extended Mission (KEM) to the schedule. The plan is to send New Horizons onward into the Kuiper Belt to examine these frigid balls of rock and ice.

New Horizons will make a flyby of an object known as 2014 MU69 on January 1st 2019. This object is 20 or 25 miles in diameter and has an unknown composition. This will be the first time we’ve gotten a close-up look at a Kuiper Belt object (other than Pluto). Their similarities or differences could tell us a great deal.

4. ExoMars, part 2

Okay, the first part of ExoMars (a joint effort of the ESA and Russia’s Roscosmos) didn’t go super-well when the stationary Schiaparelli lander delivered by the Trace Gas Orbiter crashed into the surface. The second phase of ExoMars is set to launch in 2020, and hopefully it goes better. This will include a new surface platform and a rover.

The new ExoMars surface station will be used to monitor the planet’s orbit and atmospheric variables over the course of a year. Meanwhile, the rover will have an advanced exobiology module to search for signs of life. A core drill will also allow the rover to dig deep into the surface to obtain its samples. The ESA and Roscosmos expect the landing to take place in 2021.

5. SpaceX Dragon 2 crewed flight

SpaceX is one of two companies currently participating in NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, the other being Boeing. There’s nothing wrong with Boeing’s plans, but SpaceX has a lot more interesting new technology in the crewed version of the Dragon capsule. Like the current cargo Dragon, the Dragon 2 capsule will be launched by a Falcon 9 rocket that can land back on Earth after sending the second stage into space.

Dragon 2 will have space for seven astronauts, and NASA has already contracted for six crewed flights to the ISS. The next few years will include milestones for the Dragon 2 — the one to watch is in May of 2018. That’s when the Dragon 2 will ferry two astronauts up to the ISS, marking the first time humans have ridden an American spacecraft since the Space Shuttle was retired.

6. Asteroid Redirect Robotic Mission (ARRM)

There are thousands of near-Earth asteroids, and we can only learn so much about these objects from robotic exploration. Sending people to an asteroid is still outside our capabilities, but maybe we can bring part of one here. NASA’s JPL is working on a plan to visit a nearby asteroid with a probe, and bring a piece of it back.

The Asteroid Redirect Robotic Mission (ARRM) is currently planned for a 2021 launch, but there’s still a lot of planning that needs to be done. The probe would land on an asteroid like 2008 EV5 and pick up a 4-meter boulder. The mission could also include an analysis of gravity deflection — testing to see if the mass of the probe and boulder can affect the orbit of the asteroid. The boulder would pose no danger to Earth if it were to get away on the return trip. The idea is that it could be deposited in orbit of the moon and astronauts could visit it at a later date in the mid 2020s.

If you're from south west Wales and have seen alien activity then make yourself known

Emlyn Williams UFO hunter

Can you help prove that the truth is out there?

UFO spotters in Swansea are looking for people who have witnessed unexplained flying objects in our area to take part in a special conference next month.

Whatever you experience – from seeing bright lights in the sky to believing you have come face to with an interplanetary traveller – the Swansea UFO Network wants to hear from you.

The event will take place in the Pembrokeshire seaside village of Broad Haven the scene of, 40 years ago to the day, one of the most infamous UFO sighting Wales has ever seen.

An Evening Post reader sent this image of an unidentified object hovering in the sky over Swansea in 2014.

Emlyn Williams, of Swansea UFO Network, said: "We are holding a special conference in Broad Haven to mark the 40th anniversary of a famous UFO sighting when on Saturday, February 4, 1977, a whole class of school children from Broad Haven Primary School saw a landed craft in a field next to the school, including a figure walking about.

"The case was extensively investigated at the time and sparked world-wide interest in what turned out to be the start of a major series of sightings in the area - dubbed The Welsh Triangle.

"We are looking for witnesses to UFO sightings in South-west wales during the 1977 flap to tell us what they saw and experienced."

A series of keynote speaks and UFO experts have been lined up to appear at the event.

Mr Williams added: "The speakers confirmed so far arew Neil Spring (The Watchers), David L Richards (UFO Wales) and by special video link will be Peter Paget, author of the Welsh Triangle and UFO-UK. We hope to have witnesses present too."

Swansea UFO Network was founded last year by Emlyn Williams and Steve Drewson to document and investigate sightings.

The group has been collecting strange sightings across the bay in the hope that one day, something may come of it all. Among their collection is an "alien" spotted in St Thomas, Swansea, and an object resembling a jellyfish seen over Langland Bay.

VLIEGTUIG DONALD TRUMP BEGROET DOOR UFO'S 

Het lijkt dat buitenaardsen bijzondere belangstelling hebben voor de nieuwe Amerikaanse president Donald Trump. 

Toen hij in Air Force Two onderweg was van New York naar zijn inhuldiging in Washington werd het vliegtuig begroet door verschillende UFO’s. 

Afgelopen vrijdag werd iedere stap die de nieuwe Amerikaanse president Donald Trump deed nauwlettend gevolgd. 

Alles werd op beeld vastgelegd, zo ook zijn korte vliegtrip van New York onderweg naar de inhuldiging in Washington. 

Voor het vervoer werd niet gebruikt gemaakt van de eigen Boeing van Donald Trump, maar van het regeringsvliegtuig Air Force Two, het vliegtuig dat normaal gesproken door de Vice president wordt gebruikt. 

Je kunt in de onderstaande videoclip van Fox News het vliegtuig volgen vanaf de startbaan en dan op 1 minuut 50 in de video zie je plotseling een witte UFO onder het vliegtuig doorschieten.

Dan op 2 minuut 55 komt er van links een donkere UFO die met enorme snelheid langs het vliegtuig schiet.

Zijn twee incidenten met een UFO op zo'n korte vlucht op het moment dat Donald Trump onderweg is naar zijn inhuldiging als president nog toeval te noemen? 

 

Dit is trouwens niet de eerste keer dat UFO’s bijzondere belangstelling aan de dag leggen voor Donald Trump. 

In september 2015 werd een UFO waargenomen naast de helikopter van Donald Trump en de inmiddels bij ons bekende ufoloog Scott Waring schreef toen dat wanneer buitenaardsen dergelijke belangstelling tonen voor Donald Trump, hij zeker de verkiezingen zal winnen. 

Waring schreef dat op een moment dat volgens de officiële mediakanalen Trump geen schijn van kans had om ooit de verkiezingen te winnen van Hillary Clinton.

Wie weet waren het dus wel buitenaardsen die de Amerikaanse verkiezingen hebben beïnvloed in plaats van degene die daar (onbewezen) nog altijd de schuld van krijgt: Poetin.

Area 51, Facts, Secrets, Things You Did Not Know AboutUpdated October, 2016

AREA 51 FACTS & SECRETS

With all the secrecy shrouding Area 51, it's time for some light to be shed. Learn more about the nicknames, entertainment, food, spy planes, and rumors surrounding this infamous site.

On August 15, 2013 the CIA finally acknowledged the existence of Area 51. After repeated freedom of information request made by George Washington University the CIA lifted the veil of secrecy on Area 51. 

On December 8, 2013 President Obama makes an off hand comment about Area 51, becoming the first President to publicly acknowledge its existence. This does not mean they are talking openly about UFOs and military secrets but it does open the door for lawsuits and additional freedom of information request from the public. 

The name ‘Area 51’ derives from its marking on 1950’s Nevada Test Site maps. Today, the official name of Area 51 is Air Force Flight Test Center, Detachment 3, or AFFTC Det. 3 for short. For years even our own government denied its existence until Soviet pictures confirmed what many knew all along. The base did exist. The facility was originally designed for the testing of U-2 spy planes, and ultimately Stealth technology would be born there. The secret site has grown to many times its original size. The USAF took over command of Area 51, and its airspace in 1970.

• Area 51 was also referred to as Groom Lake (the name of the dry lake Area 51 was built around), Paradise Ranch (a half-serious way to entice employees to accept positions at the remote, rustic base), Watertown (the official name of the test site, given in 1956), and Dreamland (after an Edgar Allan Poe poem).
• Area 51’s nickname DREAMLAND was allegedly derived from an Edgar Allan Poe poem by the same name. It admonishes that “the traveler, traveling through it, may not-dare not openly view it; Never its mysteries are exposed, to the weak human eye unclosed.”
• The first known use of the area was the construction in 1941 of an auxiliary airfield for the West Coast Air Corps Training Center at Las Vegas Air Field. Known as Indian Springs Airfield Auxiliary No. 1, it consisted of two dirt 5000' runways.
• Under President Dwight Eisenhower the Groom Lake facility was put in the hands of the CIA for Project Aquatone, for the development of the Lockheed U-2 reconnaissance aircraft in April 1955.
• This mysterious fortress and its surrounding grounds are strictly off-limits. What secrets are kept inside this highly guarded facility? The rumors abound. Yes, there have been pictures of craft doing amazing maneuvers over these guarded skies and pictures and video smuggled from inside have become legend. These smuggled articles show living and dead aliens, spacecraft of futuristic design, but still the government denies these claims.
• Helen Frost, whose husband Robert died in 1988 from the fumes, filed a lawsuit against the government in 1996 but the case was dismissed by the judge because the government could neither confirm nor deny the allegations, and it was also stated that the base is exempt from any environmental laws.
• During the 70's and 80's the workers at Area 51 were exposed to jet fuel toxins like JP7. Supposedly old computer parts were also burned in trenches. The workers were ordered to go into the trenches and mix up the material and were only allowed to wear protection up to their waist.

The A12 Oxcart

• When Area 51 was chosen as the testing site for the A-12 OXCART, a new, 8,500-foot runway had to be built. So as not to draw attention, contractors worked under cover of night.
• Flying at 2,200 mph, it took OXCART pilot 186 miles just to make a U-turn. To accommodate the plane, an additional 38,400 acres of land around the base had to be withdrawn from public access and the restricted airspace expanded to create a 440-square mile box.
• Early on, the only entertainment at Area 51 consisted of a single cement tennis court and a small bowling alley. There was no television, and radio signals only made it through the surrounding mountains in the evening.
• The Area 51 mess hall sometimes served lobsters and oysters. Once a week it was steak night.
• There is a sliver of truth to the conspiracy theory that the moon landing was staged at Area 51. Various space equipment – including land rovers and life support systems – were tested by the astronauts at the adjoining nuclear testing grounds.
• Area 51 has not been spared by the downturn in the economy, it is estimated that there are 1600 to 2000 employees working at the  military facility involving at least a dozen defense contractors as of 2013. This is down by 200-400 employees since 2012. 
• A recent poll showed that 70%+ of Americans believe that UFOs are real.
• After an increase in UFO sightings in 1952, the CIA concluded that “there is a remote possibility that they may be interplanetary aircraft,” and that it was necessary to investigate each sighting.
• 90% of reported UFO sightings could be easily debunked, while the other 10% were “a number of incredible reports from credible observers.”
• Over half of all UFO reports from the late 1950s through the 1960s were accounted for by manned reconnaissance flights (namely the U-2) over the United States, virtually all originating from Area 51.

• The A-12 OXCART required special fuel in order to fly at such extreme speeds and heights. The fuel was made to withstand extremely high temperatures and would not ignite even if someone threw a match into a barrel full of it.
• The OXCART cruised at 2200 miles per hour, but because the plane was secret it was kept out of official speed competitions.
• The A-12 OXCART consisted of more than 90% titanium. It was the world’s first titanium plane.
• An A-12 spy plane was used when the USS Pueblo was captured by North Korea to photograph the area and determine the ship's location.
• The OXCART's engines acted as vacuum cleaners, sucking up any debris left on the runway. So personnel would vacuum the runway before each test flight.
• The Air Force has acknowledged the existence of the Nellis Range Complex near the Groom Dry Lake for many years now. There are a variety of activities, some of which are classified, throughout the complex.
• The range is used for the testing of technologies and systems training for operations critical to the effectiveness of U.S. military forces and the security of the United States.
• Some specific activities and operations conducted on the Nellis Range, both past and present, remain CLASSIFIED and cannot be discussed.

The A12 - Spy Plane could travel at 2200 MPH

• Suspended upside down, a titanium A-12 spy-plane prototype is prepped for radar testing at Area 51 in the late 1950s. 
• But pushing the limits came with risks—and led to the catastrophic 1963 crash of an A-12 based out of Area 51.
• After a rash of declassification's and the acknowledgement of the existence of Area 51, details of Cold War workings at the Nevada base, are coming to light—including images of an A-12 crash and its cover-up pictured publicly for the first time in May.

• Remnants of a crashed A-12 spy plane—including two engines and the shattered rear fuselage—litter the ground near Wendover, Utah, in a 1963 picture recently declassified by the CIA and published here for the first time.
• After pilot Ken Collins had parachuted to the ground, he was stunned to be greeted by three civilians in a pickup, who offered to give him a ride to the wreckage of his plane. Instead, Collins got them to give him a ride in the opposite direction, by telling them the plane had a nuclear weapon on board—a prearranged cover story to keep the Area 51 craft a secret. 
• Nearly undetectable to radar, the A-12 could fly at 2,200 miles (3,540 kilometers) an hour—fast enough to cross the continental U.S. in 70 minutes. From 90,000 feet (27,400 meters), the plane's cameras could capture foot-long (0.3-meter-long) objects on the ground below. 

 

You won't find it on any geological or aeronautical maps and yet like a place in the Twilight Zone, flights to it leave Las Vegas' McCarran Airport every day. Some say alien aircraft are stored there and reverse-engineered to create new aircraft and weapons, or it's the site of genetic testing or other diabolical plots. Others say it's just a very secret aircraft development site. No matter, what it is, Area 51 remains shrouded in mystery.

A Fascinating timeline of Events at Area 51 from it's inception to the present. 

The closest you will get to Area 51 without getting arrested.

Why Are Aliens Visiting Earth? The Answer May Surprise You

UFOs Have Been Visiting Earth For a Long Time, Why?

While many acknowledge the presence of extraterrestrials in our world they are at a complete loss to explain why they are here. As with most things in life the explanation is fairly straightforward and not that difficult to comprehend. Understanding the primary motive for extraterrestrials visits will help explain theUFO Phenomena.

Most people believe that extraterrestrials are visiting Earth to monitor the progress and behavior of humanity.  To a certain extent that might be true, but it is much more likely that they are periodically coming here to examine the health of Planet Earth. After all, even our scientist are beginning to come around to the idea that Planet Earth is a living sentient being. In the greater cosmos, human and extraterrestrial life may be fairly common. On the other hand what little we know about other planets, and the universe at large, indicate that our home planet is an extremely desirable and rare occurrence within the cosmos.

People have wondered for a long time why ET has not made their presence known. If we are not the primary reason why they are here, why would they disclose their existence. The survival of mankind is probably very far down their list of priorities. For that matter survival of humanity may not even be on their list of priorities. Have you ever stopped to consider that Planet Earth has more value to an alien race if there were no humans inhabiting the planet. 

Everything we need to sustain life has been provided for us on Planet Earth. We are blessed with an abundance of water, sunshine, breathable air, enough land and food to house and feed 7 billion people. We share Earth with  millions of species of plant, animal and insect life, each playing an important role in the ecosystem, that in itself is remarkable. It makes our planet an astonishing place, a very rare and unusual gem among the stars.

 

Those that follow UFOs closely, know the largest wave of UFO sightings in modern time coincided with the discovery of splitting the atom and the use of Atomic Energy during WWII. In other words, when we discovered how to manipulate nuclear energy we triggered an unprecedented wave of UFO sightings.

There are well documented cases of UFOs hovering over nuclear military facilitiesin both the United States and Russia. Reliable witnesses state that the craft were tampering with the nuclear armament control systems. This behavior by UFOs and their occupants was not an accident and it was clearly a message to humanity.

 

Many people 'want' to believe that if things get out of control and WWIII gets under way our extraterrestrial brethren will step in and save humanity, nothing could be further from the truth. ET may step in and save Planet Earth, but they will have little time and no admiration for a species that never understood how good they had it in the first place. 

 

There is little doubt that Earth's oceans, forest and species of plants and animals are worth saving. The living, breathing, self-regulating sentient being that we are living on is at the core of their mission.

 

 

UFOs have a long and documented history of appearing just after natural or man-made catastrophic events. There is not much question that they are keeping their eye on the prize we call Earth.

CIA releases millions of documents, sparking fresh alien speculation

Mark Gambino

Journalist@timewaster2000

Conspiracy theorists unite!

Last week the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) released 13 million previously classified Top Secret documents, including detailed investigations of UFO activity.

Available now via the CIA online library, the declassified documents include reports on: investigations into UFOs; top secret cables from government executives; the agency’s behaviour control program, MK-ULTRA; and reports from experiments carried out with renowned TV psychic and ‘spoon bender’, Uri Geller.

While many of the reports have sensitive information blacked out, there is still a surprising amount of detail that outlines events, locations and people.

Little grey men

UFO conspiracy theorists have long held that governments around the world are covering up evidence of the existence of aliens and UFOs, and even collaborating in secret with beings from another planet.

Ideas such as this entered the public mind decades ago, with the supposed crash landing of a UFO at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947.

Legend has it the US Air Force moved the crashed flying saucer and its occupants to a testing facility near Groom Lake, called Area 51 – a site the US government has denied existed until 2013.

Stories like this were then popularised in the 1990s, in television series like The X-Files – a science-fiction drama where FBI Special Agents Fox ‘Spooky’ Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) investigate unsolved cases of a paranormal nature, with UFOs, aliens and government conspiracies playing the central role in the series.

While the declassified CIA documents don’t provide any definitive evidence of alien encounters or alliances, they do show the very real acknowledgement that UFOs were a source of concern.

One document, dated January 2000, declared that:

Since 1947, approximately 1500 official reports of sightings have been received and, of these about 20% remain unexplained.

Ignoring the 17 years since that report, that’s 300 events a government agency with an annual budget of around $US15 billion is unable to explain.

Threat analysis

Many of the declassified reports explore the security issues posed by UFOs to the United States, with a number concluding that secret scientific advisory panels, committees and ad hoc research groups be convened to draw up proposals for yet more secret scientific advisory panels, committees and ad hoc research groups.

Ultimately, there were a number of scientific advisory groups who determined that UFO phenomena posed “no direct threat to national security”, and that they “did not find any evidence that related the objects sighted to space travel”. Sorry to disappoint you, Spooky.

Incidentally, there are a number of documents on Area 51, but, sadly, these are nothing more than attendance records and staffing reports. Apparently, it was hard to get good help at super-secret airforce bases in 1963.

There is no spoon

It appears the CIA also enjoyed a brief period of fascination with Uri Geller – a television illusionist and self-proclaimed psychic who came to public attention in the 1970s.

Despite being the focus of numerous lawsuits, accusations of fraud and very public debunkings, Geller volunteered his psychic services to the CIA, who performed various interviews and practical experiments to determine his authenticity.

The CIA were fascinated with Uri Geller’s abilities. Photo: Getty

The newly-declassified experiments show Geller demonstrated inconsistent psychic abilities. In one experiment, the psychic was asked to determine the result of a six-sided dice roll – Geller guessed correctly roughly half the time.

In another report, Geller successfully copied various line drawings contained within sealed envelopes, despite some of his productions being mirror images of the original.

Ultimately, it was stated: “There is serious doubt that Geller’s accomplishment transcends the range of activities of a skillful magician can perform …”

Geller was passed off as a very talented magician and mentalist, and sent back to a life of luxury and lawsuits.

Pink UFO Caught During Sunset Over Slovakia On Jan 11, 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: January 11, 2017

Location of sighting: Slovakia

 

This pink disk was caught over Slovakia this week. Its a bit out of focus, but I noticed that as it passed behind this one bush, it suddenly jumped into perfect focus for a few seconds. It is a disk, perfectly round and has the appearance of a pink cloud that moves incredibly fast. The ship is incredibly beautiful and looks pink because it was caught during sunset. The eyewitness who filmed it says its a Pleiadian ship, which are often a pinkish orange in color.

Four UFO Disks Sucking Data Over Communication Towers In Mexico, Photo, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: 2-5-2006

Location of sighting: Mexico

Source: MUFON #81662

I think I report more UFO sightings from Mexico than any other country in the world. Here is a UFO report that came in today, but occurred back in 2006. Look closely, you can even see into the clear dome on top of the ships. Four glowing green disks were recorded near some telecommunication towers. The UFOs were obviously recording data and information being sent around the globe from those towers. One photo caught them, but by the time the second photo was taken, the UFOs self monitoring systems had already detected the person and camera and altered their cloaking shields to once again appear invisible. AI probably runs these functions on their ships so it can react lightening fast. All photos are untouched, original. At first, the UFOs might be mistaken for a reflection, but in all actuality, the UFOs were revealed by the powerful lights below, some of which contain infrared lights which can see at night, and it was night, so this caused them to become visible to the camera for a few moments until shield harmonics were altered to hid them. 
Scott C. Waring

Eyewitness states:

Take a photograph with a long exposure of the telecommunications towers, about 800 m away, seeing the photograph in my house I discovered those lights, the exhibition was 3 minutes. Return to the following week and take another with the same parameters and this time did not appear anything.

Explained: Chilean Navy "UFO" video - Aerodynamic Contrails, Flight IB6830

If you are short on time, then I made a one minute video explaining this:

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bFfuIidCK0

Background: Infrared footage from the Chilean Navy appears to show some kind of flying object that briefly leaves a trail behind it.µ

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry..._us_586d37bce4b014e7c72ee56b?lciacn1ruwjkmx6r

(Full footage can be seen here)

This looks like a plane, flying away from the camera considerably higher than the helicopter (somewhere around 15,000 to 25,000 feet), that briefly creates an aerodynamic contrail.

Based on analysis by @Trailblazer, @Trailspotter, myself, and others, There were only two planes possibly involved: IB6830 and LA330. The plane that initially seems to fit best is LA330, a two engined A320, which was reported to be climbing through 20,000 feet at that exact visual position at 14:01:39.

https://planefinder.net/flight/LXP330/time/2014-11-11T17:01:39 UTC/speed/15.00

While this seemed like a good fit just based on this overhead view, subsequent 3D analysis revealed that IB6830 (a four engined A340) is actually a perfect match. IB6830 left earlier, and was climbing out more to the south, nearer to the helicopter. At the time this was spotted (the very first sighting on the video, at 13:52:34) IB6830 was actually around 35 miles away. However it would very quickly get further away. By 13:57 IB6830 would be 65 miles away. This explain why it was not seen on radar (IB6830 was on radar, just not where they thought it was)

Initially I had to extract the data for the track from Planefinder, but then I located the FlightAware GPS track. Using this, multiple other examples of IB6830's departure, and the official departure charts, I was able to create a track in google earth using actual GPS coordinates (blue) and estimated positions (orange).

 

Since we have timestamped GPS locations, we can now geolocate IB6830 and LA330 in Google Earth, and create views of frames from the helicopter video using the coastline and mountains to get the exact heading.

IB6830 is in exactly the right position. We can position both the planes and the chopper precisely with the GPS data, match the camera direction from the wide shot, and the position of IB6830 then matches exactly. 



Here's a video showing how it matches up:

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uoqxr6AI7VQ


The two large blobs are flared images from the heat of the engines (much smaller in reality). You can see this effect with some candles if you view them from a distance with an IR camera. I used the FLIR ONE to do this:

(Here's a video of the above experiment)

We can see how large the flares look at various stages of the path.



The flaring is more apparent if you look at it uninverted. The engines appear as two very bright lights

The aerodynamic contrail starts ands stop in a similar way to the trail in this video (not a "chemtrail" though, this just a regular aerodynamic contrail)

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjy0NcUCTEc



There are a few different relevant images from the video:

This is a close-up of the object early in the video:

 
This shows that the plane is banked at this point - i.e. it is turning to the right. This matches the part of the track for IB6830 where it turns to the north, based on the time.

Compare it with this video of a plane taking off. It is much closer, however at the end of the video you see the two engines tilted at about the same angle as the "UFO" while the plane turns right.

At one point (9:08) they switch between the IR camera and a regular (visible light) camera. you can see the trail qute distinctly. It looks very like a contrail.




Why is it showing up as warmer? Aerodynamic contrails are essentially clouds, and at this altitude they will be ice clouds, below below freezing. They show up as darkly colored for the same reason that other clouds in the scene show up dark. It's simply the camera adjusting the exposure for the very cold sky. The engines are small so they don't effect the exposure much (and hence they flare). So the net result is that anything warmer than radiation coming from clear sky will appear dark.

A few seconds later



It also seems a bit odd that there is very little change in the heading and elevation angles in the video. This becomes clear if you look at the angles and distances involved

 

The thin white lines here connect the chopper and the plane at equal times, as you can see the heading angle between them does not change much.

The altitude of the plane varies from ~5000m to 9000m, while the distance varies from 70km to 170km, the chopper is about 1400m, we can draw a diagram to see the angles

As you can see there is very little change from the start (2.93°) to the end (1.94). Basically it should vary from about 3° to about 2° (appearing to be descending faster at the start)

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: If it was a plane then why did it not respond to hailing
A: A pilot familiar with Santiago departure responds:

Q: Why did it not show up on radar?
They were looking for a low flying object south of the airport about 35 miles away, by the time they looked it was at a high altitude and 65 miles away. The plane actually does show up on radar in data supplied by CEFAA

Q:How can it be a contrail cloud if it's as hot as the engine?
A: It's not as hot as the engines, it's a similar color in the IR to other clouds in the images. It's just a dense cloud which is a lot warmer than the far background sky. Even if they were dumping boiling water it would have been atomized by the 300 mph wind into a cloud and cooled to ambient temperature in seconds.

Q: Don't contrails only form above 30,000 feet?
A: That's where exhaust contrails are most frequent. However this appear to be a semi persistent aerodynamic contrail which often form on climbing aircraft between 20,000 to 30,000 feet (and sometimes lower).

Q: Why did you change from LA330 to both IB6830 and then to just IB6830?
There were only every two possible planes. LA330 looked better when simply viewing the tracks from above. But later 3D recreation showed that IB6830 (flying a similar path) was a better fit. LA330 still looked like a good fit for the final shot, but more detailed analysis of the path eventually showed it could only be IB6830

Q: Why should we trust your theory over the experts?
A: I could argue I'm an expert too (at identifying planes and contrails), or that the CEFAA lacks expertise in some areas, or that even experts make mistakes. However let's drop that "Argument for authority", and look at facts you can verify yourself.

We have some very solid verifiable evidence in

1. The helicopter video with timestamps and GPS coordinates.
2. The IB6830 and LA330 ADS-B tracks with timestamps and GPS coordinates.

1 matches 2 in every way

• IB6830 is in the right place at the right place
• IB6830 is going in the right direction
• IB6830 banks when the "UFO" banks,
• IB6830 would create a visual thermal signature the same size as in the video.
• IB6830 engine configuration matches the flares seen in the banking
• The size of IB6830's thermal signature shrinks proportional to its distance, matching the video.
• Contrails derived from the IB6830's track would have the same apparent size as in the video.

This is not my theory. These are verifiable facts that I (and others) simply discovered. Unless there was a UFO flying between the plane and the helicopter, mimicking the motion, the banking, the size and and the thermal signature of the plane, then it's a plane.

CIA releases INCREDIBLE top secret image of UFO flying over the Eiffel Tower

IS this finally proof of the existence of extra terrestrial life?

By George Martin 

CIA

The CIA has released a mind-boggling image of what appears to be a UFO flying over the Eiffel Tower.

The black and white photo shows what looks like a flying saucer hovering over the famous landmark in Paris.

It is unclear who the photographer was, or even when the snap was taken, but the grainy photo will be heralded as a huge discovery for UFO-believers.

The photo was revealed as part of a mass “de-classification” by the CIA.

A huge haul of documents were released - consisting of 800,000 files with 12 million pages

The CIA uploaded the trove of material following a battle against freedom of information campaigners and a lawsuit taken out against it.

The files include records of credible UFO sightings, controversial psychic experiments that were carried out and intelligence briefings.

Some of the most shocking documents include those about a top secret programme that was codenamed the “Stargate Project”.

They also contain spy-like instructions on formulas used to make “secret ink” and how to open sealed letters.

CIA files: Uri Geller has real powers

The documents include, amongst other things, research documents, intelligence briefs, UFO sightings, psychic experiments, and others.

Among the documents there are records of Henry Kissinger, secretary of state under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, hundreds of thousands of pages of intelligence analysis, and other scientific studies. There are also documents from the "Star Gate" program, which dealt with mental powers and extrasensory perception.

According to the papers, scientists from Stanford University tested Israeli mentalist Uri Geller in 1973. Geller was already famous all over the world by this point.

The scientists said of Geller that he had “proven his supernatural perception unequivocally.”

A 2013 documentary claimed that the CIA asked Geller to use his powers, but that he refused the request once he was instructed to stop pigs’ beating hearts. He worried that he will be requested to do this on a human. Geller said that he refused to do several other “dark” experiments, and only would do positive tasks.

Some of the other tasks requested of Geller were to levitate plates, and to recreate a drawing drawn by researchers in a separate, closed room. Geller, having never seen the drawings, was able to reproduce them to a high degree of accuracy.

Jimmy Carter's UFO Sighting - Was it Venus, or a Space Cloud?

A NASA rocket launch with a barium payload.

A UFO sighting was reported in 1973 by at-that-time future president president Jimmy Carter. It didn't attract much attention at the time. I began investigating the case in 1976, when Carter was running for president. However, there was no accurate information available to make it possible to find out what Carter saw. I began making various inquiries, looking for someone who might be able to provide some facts on the case. Finally, someone suggested that I contact Hayden Hewes, director of the International UFO Bureau, who had written a brief piece on the Carter sighting for Argosy UFO [Nov., 1976]. I reached Mr. Hewes by telephone at his home in Oklahoma City, and it was he who provided the first significant lead. When brief press reports appeared during the big UFO flap of 1973 to the effect that Governor Carter had previously spotted a UFO, the International UFO Bureau mailed a UFO sighting report to Carter at the State Capitol in Atlanta. Carter apparently filled out the form in some haste, his handwritten replies brief and not easily legible. He then mailed it back to Oklahoma. Mr. Hewes was kind enough to lend me a photographic transparency of the 1973 report in Carter's own handwriting.

It turns out that the sighting occurred in Leary, Georgia, about forty miles from Carter's home town of Plains, on the evening of January 6, 1969. (Carter mis-remembered the date as sometime on October, 1969, but I contacted the Lions Club headquarters in Illinois, which established the date as January 6). The future president was then the local district governor of the Lion's Club, and had come to Leary to boost the local chapter. While standing outdoors at approximately 7:15 pm, waiting for the Lion's Club meeting to begin, Mr. Carter reported seeing a single "self-luminous" object, "as bright as the moon," which reportedly approached and then receded several times. A reporter taped Carter's exact words in 1973 describing the UFO sighting. Carter said, 

There were about twenty of us standing outside of a little restaurant, I believe, a high school lunch room, and a kind of a green light appeared in the western sky. This was right after sundown. It got brighter and brighter. And then eventually it disappeared. It didn't have any solid substance to it, it was just a very peculiar-looking light. None of us could understand what it was. I've never made fun of people who've seen other things of that kind (From the documentary recording Factual Eyewitness Testimony of UFO Encounters, Chicago: Investigative Research Associates, Inc., 1978).

A copy of Carter's hand-written UFO sighting report, that I obtained from Hayden Hewes.

Although Carter reports that "ten members" of the Leary Lion's Club also witnessed the event, attempts to locate ten other witnesses proved fruitless. No one else seems to have paid much attention to the "UFO." While most Leary residents I interviewed did recall Mr. Carter's visit, even those who attended the meeting had no recollection or knowledge of any unidentified object being sighted.

I began making inquiries of various UFO researchers, looking for someone who might be able to provide some facts on the case. Finally, someone suggested that I contact Hayden Hewes, director of the International UFO Bureau, who had written a brief piece on the Carter sighting for Argosy UFO [Nov., 1976]. I reached Mr. Hewes by telephone at his home in Oklahoma City, and it was he who provided the first significant lead. When brief press reports appeared during the big UFO flap of 1973 to the effect that Governor Carter had previously spotted a UFO, the International UFO Bureau mailed a UFO sighting report to Carter at the State Capitol in Atlanta. Carter apparently filled out the form in some haste, his handwritten replies brief and not easily legible. He then mailed it back to Oklahoma. Mr. Hewes was kind enough to lend me a photographic transparency of the 1973 report in Carter's own handwriting.

Mr. Carter reports that his "UFO" was in the western sky, at about 30 degrees elevation. This almost perfectly matches the known position of Venus, which was in the west-southwest at an altitude of 25 degrees, azimuth 237 degrees. It was shining brilliantly at Magnitude -4.3, brighter than anything else in the sky. Weather records show that the sky was clear at the time of the sighting. Given the long history of Venus as "Queen of the UFOs," it seemed that we had the clear solution on hand. I wrote in  The Humanist magazine (then edited by Paul Kurtz), July-August, 1977 (p.46)

President Carter's "UFO" Is Identified as the Planet Venus

President Jimmy Carter's widely-reported "UFO sighting," which he made public while Governor of Georgia, was in fact a misidentification of the planet Venus. Several errors of identification within Mr. Carter's report demonstrate that the eyewitness testimony of even a future president of the United States cannot be taken at face value when investigating UFO sightings.

The incident occurred in Leary, Georgia, about forty miles from Plains, on the evening of January 6, 1969. Mr. Carter was the local district governor of the Lion's Club, and had come to Leary to boost the local chapter. While standing outdoors at approximately 7:15 pm, waiting for the Lion's Club meeting to begin, Mr. Carter reported seeing a single "self-luminous" object, "as bright as the moon," which reportedly approached and then receded several times. Mr. Carter reports that his "UFO" was in the western sky, at about 30 degrees elevation. This almost perfectly matches the known position of Venus, which was in the west-southwest at an altitude of 25 degrees. Weather records show that the sky was clear at the time of the sighting.

No other object generates as many UFO reports as the planet Venus. Venus is not as bright as the moon, nor does it actually approach the viewer, or change size and brightness, but descriptions like these are typical of misidentifications of a bright planet. Every time Venus reaches its maximum brilliance in the evening sky, hundreds of "UFO sightings" of this type are made. At the time of the Carter UFO sighting, Venus was a brilliant evening star, nearly one hundred times brighter than a first-magnitude star.

And for the most part, serious UFO researchers accepted this identification. After all, Jacques Vallee, who is certainly no debunker, had written,

No single object has been misinterpreted as a "flying saucer" more than the planet Venus. The study of these mistakes proves quite instructive, for it shows beyond all possible dispute the limitations of sensory perception and the weakness of accounts relating shapes and motions of point sources or objects with small apparent diameters. (Challenge to Science, 1966, p. 110).

The southwest sky as seen from Leary, Ga, at 7:15 PM January 6, 1969. The Bull's Eye shows the calculated position where a barium cloud might have been visible, quite close to Venus. (Sky chart generated using the free open-source program Cartes du Ciel.)

So there the matter stood for forty years. Then just a week ago, an associate of space writer and skeptic James Oberg contacted him, suggesting the possibility that what Carter might have seen was a bright barium space cloud from a NASA rocket, launched to study the behavior of the upper atmosphere. In fact, this possibility was discussed in episode 561 of the popular skeptics' podcast Skeptics Guide to the Universe on April 9, 2016, although neither Oberg nor I was aware of this. I was familiar with such launches, and even saw one in the 1970s when I was living in Maryland. (Frankly, the one I saw was not all that bright or spectacular.) 

James Oberg made this map, showing the location of Leary, Georgia, and the path of the rockets.

It turns out that there were in fact two rocket launches from Eglin AFB in the Florida panhandle on the evening of January 6 that might possibly have been seen from Leary. The first one was launched at 6:41 PM, and contained Barium, which would usually appear red. The second was launched at 7:35 PM, and contained Tri-methyl aluminum (TMA), which would appear white or blue. Each would have become visible about 3-4 minutes after launch, and might have remained visible for 30 minutes or more. Carter said that he was "Outside waiting for a meeting to begin at 7:30 PM." If that information is correct, it would seem to rule out them seeing the second launch. However, the cloud that became visible about 6:45 PM might still be visible at 7:15. And that cloud would have been right next to the brilliant Venus!

Supporting the Barium cloud hypothesis are Carter's statements that the object "Seemed to move tow(ard?) us from a distance - Sto(p?) move partially away Return then depart Bluish at first - then reddish - Luminous - not solid.

Against the Barium cloud hypothesis is Carter's statement that the object was "sharply outlined."

More research needs to be done before we can conclude that a Barium space cloud was definitely responsible for this famous sighting. But it seems an intriguing possibility.

Marsrover Curiosity heeft mogelijk sporen van opgedroogde modder in het vizier

By 1983, the fundamental elements of American stealth innovation were at the point of being public knowledge.

After the war, the latest scientific improvements prompted the idea of planning an airframe that could sidestep radar. It was found that a jet-powered, flying wing design, just like the Horten Ho 229 will have a little radar cross-area to traditional contemporary twin-motor aircraft. This is because the wings were merged into the fuselage and there were no extensive propeller disks or vertical and horizontal tail surfaces to give a locatable radar signature.

Reimar Horten said he blended charcoal dust with the wood paste to soak up electromagnetic waves (radar), which he accepted could shield the aircraft from identification by British early warning ground-based radar that worked at 20 to 30 MHz (the top end of the HF band), which is called Chain Home radar.

Engineers of the Northrop-Grumman Corporation had a great interest on the Ho 229, and a few of them went to the Smithsonian Museum’s office in Silver Hill, Maryland in the 1980s to learn about and study the V3 airframe. A group of engineers from Northrop-Grumman did some electromagnetic experimentation the V3’s multilayer wooden middle-area nose cones.

The cones are 3/4 of an inch (19 mm) thick and made up of thin sheets of veneer. The group inferred that there was surely some type of conducting element within the paste, as the radar signal lessened extensively as it passed through the cone.

So it turns out Hitler was far along with developing a plane that was far ahead of its time!

Marsrover Curiosity heeft mogelijk sporen van opgedroogde modder in het vizier

Caroline Kraaijvanger

De rover heeft gesteente met daarop kleine richeltjes ontdekt die mogelijk een heel interessant verhaal vertellen.

Wat nu richeltjes zijn, waren in een grijs verleden waarschijnlijk scheuren in opgedroogde modder, zo stelt NASA. De opgedroogde modder met daarin de scheuren zou zo’n drie miljard jaar geleden met sedimenten bedekt zijn. Veel later werden die sedimenten door toedoen van erosie verwijderd. Materialen die de scheuren in de modder gevuld hadden, konden die erosie beter hebben dan de opgedroogde modder eromheen. Vandaar dat we de scheuren nu als hogergelegen richeltjes aantreffen. NASA heeft de plek waar de vermoedelijke sporen van opgedroogde modder zijn aangetroffen Old Soaker gedoopt.

Curiosity doet onderzoek in de Gale-krater en heeft diverse aanwijzingen gevonden dat deze krater in het verleden gevuld was met water. Maar Old Soaker suggereert dat dit meer ook periodes van droogte kende, zo stelt NASA. Eerder zijn in gesteentelagen die lager liggen dan Old Soaker sporen gevonden van een oud meer. Hetzelfde trof de ruimtevaartorganisatie aan in gesteentelagen die jonger zijn dan Old Soaker. Die gesteentelagen – die elk uit een andere periode in de geschiedenis van Mars stammen – lijken van elkaar gescheiden te worden door een gesteentelaag die getuigt van een periode van droogte. Blijkbaar varieerde de diepte en omvang van het meer van tijd tot tijd en verdween het meer zelfs zo af en toe compleet. “We zien meer bewijs voor droge perioden,” stelt onderzoeker Ashwin Vasavada.

Onderzoekers zullen de komende tijd gebruiken om de gegevens die Curiosity over Old Soaker heeft verzameld te analyseren. De rover heeft Old Soaker inmiddels weer verlaten. De rover zoekt het nog altijd hogerop op Mount Sharp, de berg in het hart van de Gale-krater. Binnenkort zou Curiosity één van de gesteentelagen die deze berg rijk is nader moeten bestuderen met behulp van zijn boor. Onderzoekers kijken momenteel hoe de rover dat het beste aan kan pakken, aangezien er vorige maand een probleem met de boor ontstond.

THE MYSTERIOUS MONCHEGORSK OBJECT

{ https://www.youtube.com/ }

Is this a UFO coming out of the ocean in El Salvador?

According to Vladimir Azhazha, former navy officer and a famous Russian UFO researcher “Fifty percent of UFO encounters are connected with oceans.”

So UFOs tend to stick to the oceans and flying in and out of the water? 

Now look at this satellite image of the Gulf of Fonseca near the Island of Meanguera in El Salvador, it shows a very strange unknown object in the sea that generates strange patterns on the water.

According to researchers it is a natural maritime phenomenon but I don’t buy it. What kind of a natural phenomenon can create such strange patterns and ripples in a further perfectly calm ocean?

There is much discussion as whether it is a natural phenomenon or a UFO coming out of the water or going into the water.

Any idea what it could be? Check it out yourself:

Cassini Gets Up Close and Personal With Saturn's 'Wavemaker' Moon Daphnis

Credit: NASA/JPL/Space Science Institute

Cassini's daring ring-skimming orbits of Saturn are already paying off, producing some beautiful and awe-inspiring views that have, until now, been too far away to see. But now, as this almost surreal observation of Saturn's tiny moon Daphnis shows, we're finally getting a really good look at the small-scale processes that are at work in Saturn's rings.

Orbiting the Saturnian system since 2004, NASA's Cassini mission has enriched us incredible views of the seemingly flat ring plane. Beyond the robotic probe's camera resolution, however, are the ripples and waves that are inevitably caused by the gravities of small moons embedded in the many ring gaps. In one 26-mile-wide gap, called the Keeler Gap, a 5-mile-wide moon roams and it has a pretty dramatic effect on the tiny particles at the gap's borders.

The oblique viewing angle is a little misleading; we're not looking directly down on the ring plane, we're actually looking at the moon from the side. The waves in the foreground are therefore rippling up and down as the moon goes about its orbit. The ring gap also looks more narrow than its 26-mile width, an optical effect known as foreshortening. Cassini was 17,000 miles from the moon when this image was captured on Jan. 16.

RELATED: Cassini's Last Days at Saturn Will be Science Gold

Previously, in 2009, Cassini was able to spot these waves in Saturn's rings, albeit from afar, when the ringed gas giant was passing through its equinox. At this time, the ring plane was parallel to the direction of sunlight, allowing any vertical structures in the rings to cast a long shadow:

Viewing Daphnis so close means that previously unseen details pop into view. Of particular note is the narrow ridge that seems to run around the moon's equator and the smooth layer that covers its surface — traits shared by other ring moons Atlas and Pan. These features are likely a build-up of ring particles that have collided with the moon and accumulated during its orbits. Also, small craters are evident, proving that even the smallest of moons are not immune from impacts.

Another feature is a thin wisp of dusty material to the left of the moon, likely a clump of dust pulled from the gap's edge, which is now trailing the moon and spreading out.

Although Cassini's mission will end in September, with a fiery farewell into Saturn's atmosphere, as this latest observation shows, there's a lot more surprises in store as it sets itself up for a sequence of polar orbits that will take the spacecraft through the ring plane — a feat that has never before been attempted.

NASA's Curiosity Mars rover has been a busy little bot of late. NASA released a photo from the rover showing shallow crevices in the Martian soil, perhaps formed from ancient mud cracks, indicating the presence of water. Curiosity also recently spotted a rock on the Red Planet's surface that likely fell from space. The gray, iron-nickel meteorite, dubbed Ames Knob, looks distinctly different from the typical red-hued Martian rocks. It is not the first meteorite that Curiosity has identified on the Martian surface. If the rock hit the planet long ago, scientists could use the meteorite to learn something about the ancient Martian surface.

THE ABDUCTION HEARD ROUND THE WORLD

While the idea of alien life touching down on Earth has been around since the earliest of civilizations, no one had really been addressing any occurrences in our lifetime until the abduction of Barney and Betty Hill.

On September 19th,1961 while driving up Route 3 towards Portsmouth, NH from a Niagara Fall vacation, Betty had noticed something in the sky. It appeared to be a falling star, only its trajectory was abnormal and seemed to be getting bigger and brighter as they kept driving.

Since it moved so erratically, Betty’s curiosity grew to the point she urged Barney to stop the car for a closer look. They stopped just south of Twin Mountain. Here Betty observed the flying craft, through binoculars, and noticed flashing multi-colored lights as it traveled across the face of the moon.

When Barney first observed the craft, he came to the reasoning that it was just a commercial airliner. This conclusion changed however once the object changed course and descended, accelerating towards him without turning around. With the realization that no plane could maneuver in such a way, he quickly returned to the car and drove toward Franconia Notch, a narrow mountainous stretch of the road.

Driving slowly through the isolated road of Franconia Notch, the Hills observed the object as it came even closer. They watched as it passed over a restaurant, a signal tower on top of Cannon Mountain, and even near the Old Man of the Mountain.

Betty had stated that compared to the mountain profile, it was at least one and a half times its length, which was 40 feet (12 m) long. She also stated that it seemed to be rotating. The Hills kept watching the ever changing movements of the craft as it bounced through the night sky.

Just south of Indian Head, Barney had to stop in the middle of the highway as the object instantly descended toward their vehicle. As the enormous, inaudible craft hovered over the Hills’ 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, Barney grabbed the binoculars and pistol he kept in the car and headed towards the object by foot. Looking through the binoculars, Barney saw 8 to 11 humanoid figures who seemed to looking back at him from the windows of the spacecraft.

As if all at once, all but one figure moved towards a panel on the rear wall of the hallway that encircled the front section of the craft. While the others went to the panel, the one stationary figure stayed looking at Barney and conveyed a message telling him to “stay where he was and keep looking.”

At this point, batwing-like fins with red lights began to telescope out of the sides of the craft and a long structure descended from the bottom of the craft. The spacecraft, still silent, approached Barney with an estimated distance of 50–80 feet (15–24 m) overhead and 300 feet (91 m) away from him.

The spacecraft, still silent, approached Barney with an estimated distance of 50–80 feet (15–24 m) overhead and 300 feet (91 m) away from him.

Ripping the binoculars from his face, Barney ran back to the car. As he rushed into the car he told Betty, with frantic hysterity, “They’re going to capture us!” At that same moment he saw the object shift its location to directly above their vehicle. With great urgency, Barney drove away post haste, alerting Betty to keep an eye on the object.

This is where the Hills would finally hear the craft make its first sounds. They recalled hearing a rhythmic series of beeping, buzzing sounds which seemed to bounce off the trunk causing the whole vehicle to vibrate and send a tingling sensation through the Hills’ bodies. From this point, the Hills remember going through an altered state of consciousness that left their minds dulled.

The couple were returned to consciousness with a second series of melodic beeping, buzzing sounds. When coming to, they found that they had traveled somewhere around 35 miles (56 km) south. Their recollection of their trek down this road was vague and muted. One thing that stuck out was an unplanned turn, encountering a roadblock, and observing what appeared to be a fiery orb in the road.

This is where the Hills would finally hear the craft make its first sounds. They recalled hearing a rhythmic series of beeping, buzzing sounds which seemed to bounce off the trunk causing the whole vehicle to vibrate and send a tingling sensation through the Hills’ bodies.

TRUMP TO NASA: 'FORGET MARS. I WANT YOU TO FIND ALIENS! GO TO JUPITER'S MOON EUROPA.'

During the presidential campaign, neither of the two candidates made space exploration or the American space exploration NASA a primary part of their agenda, and no questions were put to them on the topic during the presidential debates.

TRUMP ANNOUNCES HIS PLANS FOR NASA: SPACE EXPLORATION AND MINING

Reporters working specifically in the field of space said that when they directed questions towards the two candidates that Hillary Clinton showed herself to be a keen supporter of NASA and was very knowledge on the topic. Donald Trump, on the other hand, was described as giving vague and perfunctory answers. However, now Trump has been declared the President-elect, he has come out with a more detailed plan for NASA’s activities for his time in office, and his agenda promises to be the most ambitious in recent decades.

Trump has expressed his desire for NASA to move from a primarily Earth-monitoring agency to one that is more dedicated to space exploration. He has said that he would like NASA to be capable of exploring the farthest reaches of the solar system by the end of the century.

• Nasa is confident about finding life on Europa in its next mission

“I will free NASA from the restriction of serving primarily as a logistics agency for low Earth orbit activity… Instead we will refocus its mission on space exploration.”

He has also spelled out specific plans for mining valuable minerals from the asteroid belt, visiting Europa (one of Jupiter’s moons which are believed to be a likely habitat for extra-terrestrial life) and perhaps even discovering planets close to our solar system which is home to alien life forms.

Robert Walker, a Republican congressman who sat on the Science, Space, and Technology Committee in the 1990s, is believed to have been instrumental in drawing up Trump’s plans for NASA. In public statements, he has focused more on the kind of technology the Trump administration hope that NASA will be able to create. He said;

“If you’re looking at technology that looks for the solar system, you are then likely to move toward plasma rockets, toward nuclear-powered rockets, certainly toward solar sails.”

Trump’s ambitious program for American space exploration has been compared to the goals set by President Kennedy in 1961 when he expressed a desire for the United States to overtake the Soviet Union in the space race.

“We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”

If the words of Jim Bridenstine, who has been shortlisted to take over as the head of the space agency, are anything to go by then this patriotic line of thought is also prevalent in Trump’s plans for NASA.

“The United States of America is the only nation that can protect space for the free world and for responsible entities, and preserves space for generations to come, ”

said Bridenstine,

“America must forever be the preeminent spacefaring nation.”

NEVER HEARD OF THE BALTIC SEA ANOMALY? GET READY TO HAVE YOUR MIND BLOWN

If there's one place that is still full of wonder, containing many different mysteries, it's probably the bottom of the ocean.

The deep, dark depths are a final frontier of sorts, and there is still much to see down there.

As an example of what's potentially waiting for us thousands of leagues under the sea, I'd like to introduce you to the so-called Baltic Sea Anomaly...

THE BALTIC SEA ANOMALY

The Baltic Sea Anomaly is an unidentified structure that was discovered via sonar and radar by a Swedish diving team back in 2011. 

The Swedish-based "Ocean X Team" was looking for a shipwreck somewhere between Sweden and Finland when they found the anomaly.

AN ANCIENT CRASHED UFO?

Since its discovery, theories about exactly what it is and where it came from have run the gamut. Most of the extreme opinions are based around the idea that what we're seeing is actually an ancient crashed UFO.

Conspiracy theorists postulate that the UFO must have crashed sometime during the Ice Age, though they aren't certain why it's there. 

Sadly there is an extreme lack of evidence to support these claims. Rock samples of the structure collected by the Swedish diving team found nothing anomalous about the structure. 

This has led many reputable authorities to brand the Baltic Anomaly a hoax. But that still hasn't stopped the conspiracy theory community from making videos like this about the anomaly. 

I really want one of these "mysteries" to turn out to be a real alien one day, but I'm patient. I won't sacrifice logic and critical thinking just because I want something bad enough ( via viralnova.com ).

Science ‘Finally’ Proves That We Are DEFINITELY NOT Alone In The Universe!

Even though most of know that it is impossible for us to be the only advanced(ish) beings in an infinite Universe(s) Science has finally proven that we are very much not alone in the Universe, in fact it is impossible for us to be the only ones!

A New York Times article, by Adam Frank, published in the Sunday Review points out that “the Odds Are Less One in 10 BILLION TRILLION That We Are Not The First” advanced civilizations, and that the possibility of communicating with extraterrestrials and proving the the existence of an alien society can be viewed with the aid of the “Drake Equation”. Here are excerpts from Frank’s outstanding article.

“LAST month astronomers from the Kepler spacecraft team announced the discovery of 1,284 new planets, all orbiting stars outside our solar system. The total number of such “exoplanets” confirmed via Kepler and other methods now stands at more than 3,000.

This represents a revolution in planetary knowledge. A decade or so ago the discovery of even a single new exoplanet was big news. Not anymore. Improvements in astronomical observation technology have moved us from retail to wholesale planet discovery. We now know, for example, that every star in the sky likely hosts at least one planet.

But planets are only the beginning of the story. What everyone wants to know is whether any of these worlds has aliens living on it. Does our newfound knowledge of planets bring us any closer to answering that question?

A little bit, actually, yes. In a paper published in the May issue of the journal Astrobiology, the astronomer Woodruff Sullivan and I show that while we do not know if any advanced extraterrestrial civilizations currently exist in our galaxy, we now have enough information to conclude that they almost certainly existed at some point in cosmic history.

Among scientists, the probability of the existence of an alien society with which we might make contact is discussed in terms of something called the Drake equation. In 1961, the National Academy of Sciences asked the astronomer Frank Drake to host a scientific meeting on the possibilities of “interstellar communication.” Since the odds of contact with alien life depended on how many advanced extraterrestrial civilizations existed in the galaxy, Drake identified seven factors on which that number would depend, and incorporated them into an equation.

Just imagine he wonders out there!

You might assume this probability is low, and thus the chances remain small that another technological civilization arose. But what our calculation revealed is that even if this probability is assumed to be extremely low, the odds that we are not the first technological civilization are actually high. Specifically, unless the probability for evolving a civilization on a habitable-zone planet is less than one in 10 billion trillion, then we are not the first.

To give some context for that figure: In previous discussions of the Drake equation, a probability for civilizations to form of one in 10 billion per planet was considered highly pessimistic. According to our finding, even if you grant that level of pessimism, a trillion civilizations still would have appeared over the course of cosmic history.

In other words, given what we now know about the number and orbital positions of the galaxy’s planets, the degree of pessimism required to doubt the existence, at some point in time, of an advanced extraterrestrial civilization borders on the irrational.

In science an important step forward can be finding a question that can be answered with the data at hand. Our paper did just this. As for the big question — whether any other civilizations currently exist — we may have to wait a long while for relevant data. But we should not underestimate how far we have come in a short time.”

Basically people, we are VERY much not alone in the Universe and it is now pretty much impossible to think we are! Perhaps this is part of the drip feeding of disclosure!?

U.I.P SUMMARY

There was a time when the human race as a whole believed that we were completely alone in the Universe and that you would be crazy to think anything different – NOW, you would have to be crazy to think that we are alone in the Universe!

What with Sightings on the rise across the planet of UFO’s and Scientists now confirming the existence of Alien Beings and the Universe being infested with life, perhaps this is all part of the big build up to official disclosure, educating the masses that we are very much not alone in space.

If you read in between the lines of the above article it is clear that the odds are now changing as to whether or not the Elite are going to tell us the Truth about the ET’s – Thanks to people like all of us, we are all dragging the truth out kicking and screaming!

Wonder what other announcements will be coming out in 2017?

Astronomers estimate 100 billion habitable Earth-like planets in the Milky Way, 50 sextillion in the univese!

Alone in the Universe…..Yeah right!

Astronomers at the University of Auckland claim that there are actually around 100 BILLION habitable, Earth-like planets in the Milky Way — significantly more than the previous estimate of around 17 billion. There are roughly 500 billion galaxies in the universe, meaning there is somewhere in the region of 50,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (5×1022) habitable planets. I’ll leave you to do the math on whether one of those 50 sextillion planets has the right conditions for nurturing alien life or not.

The previous figure of 17 billion Earth-like planets in the Milky Way came from the  Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in January, which analysed data from the Kepler space observatory. Kepler essentially measures the dimming (apparent magnitude) of stars as planets transit in front of them — the more a star dims, the larger the planet. Through repeated observations we can work out the planet’s orbital period, from which we can usually derive the orbital distance and surface temperature. According to Phil Yock from the University of Auckland, Kepler’s technique generally finds “Earth-sized planets that are quite close to parent stars,” and are therefore “generally hotter than Earth [and not habitable].”

The University of Auckland’s technique, called gravitational microlensing, instead measures the number of Earth-size planets that orbit at twice the Sun-Earth distance. This results in a list of planets that are generally cooler than Earth — but by interpolating between this new list, and Kepler’s list, the Kiwi astronomers hope to generate a more accurate list of habitable, Earth-like planets. “We anticipate a number in the order of 100 billion,” says Yock.

Gravitational microlensing, an effect theorized by Einstein back in 1936, is exactly what it sounds like. Essentially, light emitted by a star is bent by the gravity of massive objects, ultimately allowing astronomers to work out just how large those objects are. Gravitational microlensing has been used in recent years to detect planets the size of Neptune or Jupiter, and now Yock his colleagues at the University of Auckland have proposed a new method for detecting Earth-sized planets. The astronomers hope to use this new microlensing technique with a huge suite of telescopes — located in Chile, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, and Texas — to confirm their estimate of 100 billion Earth-like habitable planets.

Suffice it to say, if the Milky Way contains 100 billion Earth-like planets, and there’s somewhere in the region of 500 billion galaxies, then there’s an extremely high chance of other planets harbouring life. As for how we’ll get to those planets, though — or, alternatively, how the residents of those planets will get to us — remains a very big question. The nearest probably-habitable planet is Tau Ceti e, which is 11.9 light years from Earth. The fastest spacecraft ever, Helios II, traveled at 43 miles per second (70km/s), or 0.000234c (the speed of light). At that speed it would take 51,000 years for a spacecraft to reach Tau Ceti e.

It gets worse: Helios II was only travelling that fast because it was orbiting close to the Sun; Voyager, for example, travels at just 8 miles per second (so, about 200,000 years to reach Tau Ceti e). To reach another star within a reasonable time period (say, 50-100 years) we would need a propulsion system that’s capable of around 0.1c (10% light speed). There are a few proposed methods for reaching such insane speeds (antimatter rockets, fusion rockets), but nothing that’s being immediately (and seriously) considered for interstellar travel. Who knows, maybe NASA’s warp drive will pan out? If they can work out the whole annihilating-the-star-system-upon-arrival issue, that is…

[The image at the top of the story is an infrared image of the core of the Milky Way, captured by NASA’s Spitzer space telescope. Infrared imaging allows you to see many stars which are normally obscured by intergalactic dust.]

UIP Summary

---

I remember as a child always being led to believe that we are alone in the vastness of the Universe and that we are all just some kind of a ‘miracle’ and out there in the darkness of space is just lots of dying stars and planets! How VERY wrong were they….The Galaxy we live in is infested with life! Out of a 100 Billion habitable planets there is going to be a lot of other planets out there that are inhabited, much like planet earth, but perhaps some far more sophisticated.

With all of these Scientists coming out with such amazing news such as this, it really does make me thing that perhaps this is part of the drip feeding of disclosure like everything else we have been presented with in the last few years! So that in the near future our so called world leaders can say “hell, we told you there was life out there” (even though they probably know where and who ‘some’ of the ET beings are!).

I don’t know about you, but this makes us here at UIP pretty damn excited about the prospect of meeting some of our 100 Billion neighbours out there….lets hope we meet the friendly neighbours first!

And some people think we are still alone in the Universe!!

UFO Comes In Close To Space Station, Totally Fearless Of Being Seen, Video, Jan 2017, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: January 2017
Location of sighting: Earths orbit at ISS
Source: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/live-iss-stream

Watch as a UFO comes exceptionally close to the space station, totally not caring if they are noticed or not. On Earth, aliens are suppose to respect our rules, but in space, its their rules. I love the detail on the UFO, and it looks like the same UFO we reported last week, just much closer this time. How often do UFOs appear near the space station? They are there 24/7 but usually they are not seen on the camera due to the camera angles and NASA often turns away from the blackness of space, because its easiest to spot a glowing UFO amid the darkness, so instead, NASA puts the cams on the Earth below. But believer you me, NASA is highly aware of them and even communicating with some of them from the space station. Excellent capture by Streetcap1.

CIA Releases UFO Documents To Waste Your Time And Make You Give Up The Subject, Jan 2017, UFO Sighting News.

Date of doc release: January 2017
Source of announcement: 

https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/

For some unknown reason, probably just out of the kindness of their iron hearts, the CIA has released some ancient CIA intelligence gathered from past UFO sightings and decided to ALLOW the public to read over them. You see, we the UFO researchers around the world have put so much pressure on the world governments by us getting in the news daily and different UFO facts and sightings, all of which are the latest sightings and news, that the CIA must have figured that these old documents from a time before most of us were born would some how appease our appetite for the truth, but, and I say this with laughter...why did they even waste their time posting this old information? Its a pile of garbage documents that have been picked out as being the least important and least revealing, and then they edit them until its so unreadable that no one will ever learn anything from them. The documents are not with the paper they were copied onto. 

Things you wont find in these documents...

1. No Roswell information. 
2. No info about the March 1969 UFO crash in Russia
3. No info about the Brazil UFO crash of 1996 (USAF was gifted the UFO as a token of Brazil friendship.)
4. No info about the Kecksburg UFO crash in Dec 1965
5. No info about the UFO fleet the US Army shot at and had no effect on over Los Angeles in Feb of 1942
6. No info about the UFO crash in New Mexico in 2003
7. No info about the UFO crash in Needles, California in 2008
8. No info about the alien base below Los Alamos Labs 

Look, I can go on and on with this list. What I'm saying is that the CIA documents are only good for carrying to the outhouse. Don't waste your time going though them. They want you to find nothing so you will give up on the subject, but we already know there their plan. So we keep on keeping on, doing what we do daily, trudging forward no matter what. We are already winning and the CIA and aliens know it too.

Aliens Give Escort To US President Donald Trumps Plane In Washington DC, Jan 19, 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: January 19, 2017
Location of sighting: Washington DC, USA

Another UFO was seen near trump, but this time it was seen nearly colliding with the jet itself. As you can see the UFO shot past at such a speed even the camera had difficulty focusing on it. Fox News was lucky enough to catch it and show it on national TV today. It looks like Fox News has found proof that aliens have a deep interest in Americas new president and what he has destined for the world. 

The jet flies over a white disk at 1:50 into the video, then at 
2:55 in the original Fox News video, there is another dark UFO that shoots past the jet and nearly hits it. I found the original and am placing it at the bottom of the post, but pause at the times I stated, and you will see them.

Last year we reported a UFO that was seen near the Trump helicopter and I told you then, and no one believed me, that if aliens were watch Trump, then it means he will get elected. It happened as I said it would. And now, again, we see Trump landing at the airport with a alien escort to watch over him. Now, the big question is, is Trump where he is today, because aliens were helping him achieve it? The alien power of metal manipulation of controlling others thoughts could make an average person into a Trump very fast.

NASA Claim “Dozens” Of Advanced Civilisations Existed Before Us

A new NASA study reveals that dozens of ancient advanced civilisations much like ours once existed on Earth, but they all came to an abrupt end. 

The study suggests that humanity as we know it could come to an end in the next few decades based on the patterns observed with these previous civilisations.

Fabweb.org reports:

If we look back in history, 3000 – 5000 years, we will find a historical record that clearly shows us how advanced and complex civilizations were just as susceptible to collapse as we are today. This ongoing pattern has led researchers to question the future existence of society and civilization as we know.

If we were to look back further back in time, over 10,000 years, we would encounter evidence of advanced civilizations that possibly predate the Pre-Inca, Olmec, and Ancient Egyptian civilization, not to mention other advanced ancient civilizations in ancient Mesopotamia.

It is difficult to overlook the repeating patterns identified by scholars in most of these civilizations and the NASA funded study is clear evidence of the path ancient civilizations on EArth have taken for thousands of years. This is considered by many people as a sign that clearly states that ancient civilizations have reset a number of times.

These factors have kept on repeating themselves and have been the culprit for ancient civilizations before us.  In the report, applied mathematician Safa Motesharri and his “Human and Nature Dynamical” model claims that “the process of rise-and-collapse is actually a recurrent cycle found throughout history.”

“The fall of the Roman Empire, and the equally (if not more) advanced Han, Mauryan, and Gupta Empires, as well as so many advanced Mesopotamian Empires, are all testimony to the fact that advanced, sophisticated, complex, and creative civilizations can be both fragile and impermanent.”

The study came to the conclusion that there are two key social features that contributed to the collapse of every single advanced civilization from the past: “the stretching of resources due to the strain placed on the ecological carrying capacity”; and “the economic stratification of society into Elites [rich] and Masses (or “Commoners”) [poor]” These social phenomena have played “a central role in the character or in the process of the collapse,” in all such cases over “the last five thousand years.”

Even though our civilizations is at a very advanced technological stage, this does not necessarily mean that we are saved from imminent chaos. In the study we find that “Technological change can raise the efficiency of resource use, but it also tends to raise both per capita resource consumption and the scale of resource extraction, so that, absent policy effects, the increases in consumption often compensate for the increased efficiency of resource use.”

One of the best examples of advanced ancient civilizations disappearing can be found in Mesoamerica.

If we take a look at the ancient Maya who were an extremely advanced ancient civilization we find that several factors played a crucial role for this once great empire to crumble eventually. While most researchers would agree that Deforestation, Famine and Drought where some of the key components in the failure of the ancient Maya, we find a similar pattern in other civilizations, not only I the Americas, but around the globe.

Motesharrei and his colleagues conclude that under conditions “closely reflecting the reality of the world today… we find that collapse is difficult to avoid.” In the first of these scenarios, civilization:

“…. appears to be on a sustainable path for quite a long time, but even using an optimal depletion rate and starting with a very small number of Elites, the Elites eventually consume too much, resulting in a famine among Commoners that eventually causes the collapse of society. It is important to note that this Type-L collapse is due to an inequality-induced famine that causes a loss of workers, rather than a collapse of Nature.”

Roswell teen sentenced to a year in juvenile detention for stealing UFO

The Sahara was ‘green’ for over 6,000 years and had 10 times more rain than now

Based on erosion marks, several researchers and geologists have suggested that the Great Sphinx was built thousands of years earlier than the official story suggests.

According to a new study recently published in the journal Science Advances, evidence shows that humans occupied much of the Sahara during the ‘wet period’ around 8,000 years ago.

Through an analysis of marine sediments, researchers at the University of Arizona have determined rainfall patterns in the Sahara over a period of 6,000 years obtaining fascinating results. The UA-led team has identified the climate pattern that generated a “Green Sahara” from 5,000 to 11,000 years ago. The region had 10 times the rainfall it does today.

As it turns out, what is now the Sahara Desert was the home of hunter-gatherers who lived off the animals and plants present in the savannas of the region and off the wooded prairies sometime between 5,000 and 11,000 years ago.

“It was 10 times as wet as today,” said lead author Jessica Tierney of the University of Arizona. Annual rainfall in the Sahara now ranges from about 4 inches to less than 1 inch (100 to 35 mm).

Although other research has already identified the existence of a “Green Sahara” period, Tierney and colleagues managed to compile a continuous record of rainfall in the region that existed 25,000 years ago.

Interestingly, archaeological evidence shows that humans occupied much of the Sahara during the wet period, but gradually withdrew some 8,000 years ago.

Other researchers have suggested that the Sahara became drier by the time people left, but the evidence was inconclusive, says Tierney, an assistant professor of geosciences at the UA, whose work was published in Science Advances.

According to the new study, rainfall records gathered by the team indicate a period that lasted for one thousand years, some 8,000 years ago, in which the Sahara became drier, which coincides with the time when people left.

“It looks like this thousand-year dry period caused people to leave,” Tierney said.

“What’s interesting is the people who came back after the dry period were different — most raised cattle. That dry period separates two different cultures. Our record provides a climate context for this change in occupation and lifestyle in the western Sahara.”

According to UA News, Instead of lake sediments, Tierney and her colleagues used cores of marine sediments taken off the coast of West Africa at four different sites. Because the cores were taken over a north-south distance of about 800 miles (1,300 km) — from offshore Cape Ghir, Morocco, to the northwestern corner of Mauritania — the cores revealed both the ancient rainfall patterns and the areal extent of the Green Sahara.

Has the CIA proved aliens exist? Top secret documents reveal the STRICT guidelines around UFO national security

The declassified papers report on UFO sightings in Norway, Spain and North Africa and the former USSR

BY CHRISTOPHER BUCKTIN

Conspiracy theorists claim documents released by the Central Intelligence Agency prove aliens exist.

The CIA released millions of previously top secret documents this week under the Freedom of Information Act following mounting pressure from activists.

Among the eye-opening discussions featured are Uri Geller , Nazi War criminals, assassinating Fidel Castro and Cold War surveillance.

But the one that has got alien hunters most excited are the numerous documents on UFOs .

There are a number of documents relating to sightings in Norway,Spain and North Africa and the former USSR, but none of these were proven.

The organisation emphasises the importance of rapid response to any sightings as a matter of national security, following its four phases of air defence; detection, identification, interception and destruction.

It also reveals that The Unidentified Flying Object Program requires that all US Air Force (USAF) commanders to adhere to strict guidelines that calls for them to report all UFO sightings, including any they have been

The guidelines dictate reports have to contain data points and as much detail on the look of the object as possible- including size, colour, sounds it may have made and any "unusual features."

Despite the excitement over the release, conspiracies theorist Tyler Glockner said in one of his latest Secure Team 10 videos: "When it comes to the intelligence agencies, specifically the CIA, you have to be very suspicious of them - especially any time they are making documents known to the public."

He says this is because the organisation is well-known for "keeping secrets, lying and ousting dictators"

Also revealed in the documents, spanning from the 1940s to the 1990s, is information on spoon bending aficionado Geller.

US spooks ran tests on Geller to see if his supposed psychic abilities were real – and could be weaponised.

CIA files reveal the Israeli, famed for his ability to seemingly bend spoons with his mind, was taken to Stanford Research Institute in the 1970s.

Following the documents’ release Geller told the Mirror how he was repeatedly tested between 1972 to 1976 including at NASA ’s Goodard Space Laboratory, the Naval Surface Warfare Centre and a nuclear laboratory.

He claimed the Americans went on to successfully use his telepathic skills to force the Russians to sign the nuclear arms reduction treaty.

And he says he was flown to Geneva where he ‘bombarded’ the mind of a top Russian nuclear official to make him sign the treaty.

According to the papers, during a week-long series of tests, scientists placed Geller in a sealed room covered by monitors.

Once inside a random word was selected from the dictionary. The first chosen was ‘fuse’.

To illustrate the word a research assistant drew a firecracker away from Geller before then taping the sketch to a wall outside the room.

Geller, now 70, was then asked to use his psychic power to draw what he thought the word was.

The CIA documents say: “His almost immediate response was that he saw a ‘cylinder with noise coming out of it’.

“His drawing to correspond with it was a drum, along with a number of cylindrical-looking objects.”

The second word chosen was “bunch” and a scientist drew a bunch of grapes.

The report states: “Geller’s immediate response was that he saw ‘drops of water coming out of the picture’.

“He then talked about ‘purple circles’.

“Finally, he said that he was quite sure that he had the picture. His drawing was indeed a bunch of grapes.

Scientists concluded Geller had “demonstrated his paranormal perceptual ability in a convincing and unambiguous manner”.

The tests formed part of the Stargate Project, which dealt with psychic powers and extrasensory perception.

Speaking to the Mirror on Wednesday from his home in Israel, Geller said: “The release of these secret documents surprises me because I continued working for the CIA after those experiments and I am very surprised they allowed such information out.”

Explaining why he felt he was targeted by US intelligence, he said: “They probably made a deal with Mossad, the Israeli secret service, to get me out of Israel in 1972.”

Recalling the tests, said he was tested at numerous facilities before then going on to work abroad for the CIA.

“The CIA tested me at Stanford Research Institute, and I passed all the sets under laboratory controlled conditions, and I did that twice, so there was no way of cheating or hoodwinking them.

“Although I am very controversial, the controversy around me was actually very good for me, in a way it was intentional because I had to have a cover. It was like an in built safety device for me, the controversy.

“The CIA then tested me at the American Surface Weapons Centre, which very people few people know, that was in Maryland.

“Then the most extraordinary tests were done at the Lawns Livermore Radiation Labs, where they carry out nuclear research. They wanted to see if my mind could trigger a nuclear weapon.”

Detailing how he helped broker a nuclear arms deal with Russia claimed: “Washington wanted me to convince the Russians to sign the nuclear arms reduction treaty telepathically.

“So Senator Claiborne Pell, who was the head of the American foreign relations committee flew to my house in England and convinced me to do that.

“Then he sent Ambassador Max Kempleman, who was presidential star winner, and they took me to Geneva.

“I got very close to Yuli Vorontsov who was the head Russian nuclear negotiator. I know it sounds fantastical, scene fiction, but I actually bombarded his mind to sign the treaty and they signed.

“Of course, I cannot take full credit, but there is no doubt in my mind I convinced him telepathically.”

also claimed he was responsible for seeing the Americans ploughing millions of dollars into telepathic research after meeting President Jimmy Carter.

“A high-ranking agent called Kit Green called me,” he explained.

“He said to me “I want to test to your personally’. He was sitting in Langley, Virginia.

“Green said ‘I want you to tell me something. Convince me’. So I said to him. ‘well grab a book in your office, any book?” and I described the picture in the book. I said ’I am getting the word ‘architect’.

“The agent freaked out as I described the picture. That convinced him, and that is why the CIA got millions of dollars in finance.

“Then the CIA asked me to convince President Carter.

“So they managed to get me into the White House, I grabbed President Carter by the hand on his inauguration day, I looked directly into his eyes, and telepathically I ordered him to let millions of dollars into physic research which he did.”

The release of the secret documents came after lengthy efforts from freedom of information advocates and a lawsuit against the CIA.

The full archive is made up of almost 800,000 files.

They had previously only been accessible at the National Archives in Maryland.

The trove includes the papers of Henry Kissinger, who served as secretary of state under presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, as well as several hundred thousand pages of intelligence analysis and science research and development.
