This day in UFO history: Japanese Researcher Snaps A Metallic UFO Over His House In Yokohama

This day in UFO history: Japanese Researcher Snaps A Metallic UFO Over His House In Yokohama

yokohama-ufo-1957

17 January 1957; A UFO, about 20 to 30 feet in diameter, was caught on camera hovering for around one to two minutes at approximately 60-70 feet.

UFO researcher Yusuke J. Matsumura at Flying Saucer Research group in Japan had snapped a picture of the object before it was able to take off at an estimated Mach 152 in 70- degree elevation.

The witness was outside his resident at 1687 Hama Isogo Ku Yokohama at around 13 minutes to 10 in the morning when the incident took place. He said that he was leaving his house to go to Tokyo when he saw a metallic flash just above his house. He managed to get his primoflex automatic – Japanese rollei automat – camera and took a picture.

After hovering for a minute or two, the large UFO took off toward southeast in general direction of Tokyo Bay.

Alien hunter demands scientific inquiry after police helicopter captures sightings of a UFO

Alien hunter demands scientific inquiry after police helicopter captures sightings of a UFO


AN alien hunter has accused the police of withholding information about the recent, suspected, UFO sighting above the Bristol Channel.

Editor of the UFO Truth magazine, Gary Heseltine, has been investigating the recent sighting of the object that was capture by thermal cameras, 1000ft over the Bristol Channel in September 2016.

Mr Heseltine has demanded a thorough scientific inquiry into the sighting.

It is understood the footage was captured over Bristol on Saturday, September 17 2016, and shared online by NPAS St Athan, the National Police Air Service which is based in South Wales, more than a week later.

NPAS St. Athan tweets about possible UFO sighting

Some have suggested it could be a balloon or a Chinese lantern, but police have ruled out both ideas because of the heat and movement.

The mystery craft was said to be flying against the winds at the time and was said to be undetected by air traffic control.

Mr. Heseltine said his investigation has included several Freedom of Information Requests to South Wales police to obtain flight maps and audio from the cockpit.

He said: "I've waited until now to see how much information I could obtain from the police via the FOI requests I've submitted. What I can say is that in my opinion the police have not been as open and transparent as they could have been."

He claims the case bears a resemblance to another case in Chile where a Navy helicopter captured a UFO on infra-red.

Mr. Heseltine added: "I believe this British case is a major UFO event and should be the subject of a scientific enquiry."

REVEALED: US Military develops top secret weapon that PARALYSES cities but leaves NO MARK

REVEALED: US Military develops top secret weapon that PARALYSES cities but leaves NO MARK

A TERRIFYING new super-weapon is being developed by the United States Army that is capable of crippling an entire city without leaving a physical trace.

US military developing EMP super weapon

GETTY

PARALYSE: The weapon can shut down all electronic equipment in an entire city

A non-explosive electromagnetic pulse artillery shell would effectively make most electronic equipment and computer systems useless if it was detonated.

But despite the weapon destroying vital communications and defence systems, it doesn’t actually do any visible physical damage.

A new army research proposal has looked at ways the devastating instrument could be used against enemy cities.


“It is for the neutralisation of an adversary’s underlying industrial, civil, and communications infrastructure”

US Army report

It said: “[The weapon] provides an alternative attack vector for the neutralisation of an adversary’s underlying industrial, civil, and communications infrastructure without the destruction of the hardware associated with those systems.

“Advances in munitions-based microelectronics and power technologies make possible the implementation of non-kinetic cyber and electromagnetic or electronic warfare (EW) attacks that could be delivered via artillery launched munitions.”

The report release will stoke fears of an all-out conflict between the world's super powers after US tanks were sent to the Russian border just days ago.

The report goes on to state the military’s eventual goal after testing is to widely distribute it.

It reads: “The final NKE electronics system will support a number of commercial communications protocols.

“The ruggedised, hardened electronics subsystem may be transitioned to a wide variety of industrial and civil applications that call for operation in extremely harsh environments."

Just days ago, US military bosses unveiled plans for a number of science fiction-style weapons on warships.

The next generation killing machines involve everything from lasers to railgun, which is capable of hurling shells at 7300mph.

‘It’s UFOs leaving the MOTHERSHIP’ Bizarre ‘alien’ footage revealed

‘It’s UFOs leaving the MOTHERSHIP’ Bizarre ‘alien’ footage revealed

A GROUP of UFOs detach themselves from an alien mothership in bizarre footage, claims a shocked eyewitness.

The person filmed a giant bright light appear in Lake Country, in the US state of Illinois, this month.

It breaks apart into six identical miniature orbs of light, which the unnamed witness later described as being smaller UFOs breaking away from a larger ship.

The eyewitness said: "I then noticed an orb by it detach itself and then sporadically went left of the orb and then vanished.

“The object was in my sight for about two hours and then slowly vanished behind the treeline of my house.”

SPACESHIP: A witness has described seeing an unidentified object

“The complex structure and behaviour of the object rules out natural phenomena”

James Wolford, Mutual UFO Network

James Wolford, a director at paranormal investigation website Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), said the technology used to create the orb may be something too advanced to be man-made.

He added: “The complex structure and behaviour of the object rules out natural phenomena.” This is the second strange sighting in Illinois in just a few months.

Last year, a bloke filmed a UFO “communicating using Morse Code flashing” in the city of Joliet.

Joseph Tezek filmed the strange sighting from three different locations and uploaded the separate videos on YouTube in the hope of finding answers.

Days ago, so-called "truthers" claimed they had evidence of NASA hiding alien evidence after footage from the space agency appeared to show an unidentified white object near the international space station.

The truth IS out there – CIA documents on ALIENS and state-funded MIND CONTROL released

The truth IS out there – CIA documents on ALIENS and state-funded MIND CONTROL released

MILLIONS of top secret CIA documents have been made public, finally revealing the truth behind state-sponsored mind control, UFO sightings and classified operations deep in the Vietnamese jungle.

The CIA has made millions of secret UFO and mind control documents publicly available

The records, accessible online, cover 13 million hidden CIA records also relating to the Cold War and Korean conflict and even the agency's spokesman admits there's some "bad stuff" in there.

Some items relate to the mysterious Star Gate mind control project, which was the code name for a secret US Army unit established in 1978 at Fort Meade, Maryland, by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and SRI International to investigate the potential for psychic phenomena in military and domestic intelligence applications.

RELATED ARTICLES

The mystical military project was only founded because the Americans were convinced the Soviet Union was spending 60 million roubles annually on psychotic warfare.

The documents have only become available thanks to a long-running court case, which tackled the CIA over their failure to grant public access to historic material.

CIA headquarters released the information after coming under legal pressure

Newly released documents expose the CIA's activities spanning from 1940-1990 and also includes scientific research papers and intelligence reports.

Joseph Lambert, the CIA's director of information, said: "This is one of the things that we think improves transparency for us, and it's a simple thing."

He said he wanted to make the secretive documents "more widely available".

CIA spokesperson Heather Fritz Horniak said: "None of this is cherry-picked. It's the full history. It's good and bad."

A non-profit organisation called MuckRock took the CIA to task over their lack of obtainable information.

One of the agency's excuses for not releasing the information was it could not cope with printing costs, but when journalist Michael Best started a Kickstarter campaign to raise money to manually print off the documents, the CIA was forced to act.

Mr Best said: "The hope was that the financial pressure, the negative press and making it not only a legal but a practical inevitability that these files would be put online would force the Agency to speed up their timetable.

"The CIA isn't doing this out of the goodness of their hearts."

UFO 2017: CHILEAN NAVY RELEASE 10 MIN OF UFO FOOTAGE IN INFRARED

UFO 2017: CHILEAN NAVY RELEASE 10 MIN OF UFO FOOTAGE IN INFRARED

Unexplained UFO video just released from the Chilean Navy
 
The remarkable nine-minutes recorded by two Chileans from military showing an unidentified flying object (UFO) ejecting an unknown substance into the air, was introduced into the media society by Chilean government, after two years of long analyses and investigations.
 
 CEFAA, the Chilean government's UFO investigations branch, was the only one at that time released such type of images. CEFAA works under the auspices of Chilean Air Force, committees of military experts, technicians and academics from many disciplines. None of them have been able to reach a consensus about what that object is, an object observed by those two militaries from coastal patrol.
 
 
 When all the investigations among UFO's cases are accomplished, and the events are named as unidentified air phenomenas, the government's branch release them into the media. The General Ricardo Bermudez, the director of CEFAA in that period, explained: "We do not know exacly what that object was, but we do know for sure what that object wasn't." And "what that object wasn't" comes up with a long list of conventional explanations.

ROSWELL UFO CRASH - FIRST HAND WITNESS TESTIMONY - ONE ALIEN WAS ALIVE!

ROSWELL UFO CRASH - FIRST HAND WITNESS TESTIMONY - ONE ALIEN WAS ALIVE!

This is Gerald Anderson's story of the Roswell UFO crash. He was interviewed by famous UFO researcher Stanton Friedman (the same researcher who first obtained Major Jesse A. Marcel’s testimony about the Roswell incident. 
 
During this interview, Gerald Anderson tells of him as a young boy of walking up on a crashed UFO complete with its crew of 4 and with one alien creature still alive. 
 
THE ROSWELL INCIDENT WAS, IN FACT, A CRASHED UFO 
 
Anderson was out rock hunting with some family members on the Plains of St. Augustine near Socorro on the July 1947 morning that this event took place. 
 
His testimony was polygraph proved, which proves that the UFO phenomenon is real and the Roswell Incident was, in fact, a crashed UFO. 
 
When they were out rock hunting, they discovered a silver disk. There were three creatures, three bodies, lying on the ground underneath this thing in the shade. Two weren't moving, and the third one obviously was having trouble breathing. There was a fourth one next to it, sitting there on the ground. There wasn't a thing wrong with it, and it apparently had been giving first aid to the others.
 
 After a couple of minutes, Anderson investigated the UFO and the alien that was still alive turned and looked at him. Anderson had the feeling the creature was inside of his mind. He could hear his thoughts. 
 
A group of armed soldiers suddenly appeared. The extraterrestrial creature, which had calmed down after its initial fright, "went crazy" at the sight of the soldiers. Thinking back on the creature's plight today brings on the "most awful, horrible feeling," Anderson says.
 
 "His situation was hopeless. He was aware of it. He'd just lived through a nightmare that most of us wouldn't be able to psychologically stand. He'd watched two of his crew die. He knew there's no chance of rescue because our military is here and his people aren't going to be able to get him.
 
 "As a kid, I was aware of what being afraid of the dark was like., and the feeling I got from him at the moment was that feeling multiplied a million times. It was really scary. It was terrifying.

VREEMD GELUID BOVEN VLISSINGEN, NEDERLAND ( VIDEO )

VREEMD GELUID BOVEN VLISSINGEN, NEDERLAND ( VIDEO )

vg1.jpg

De vreemde geluiden die mensen soms waarnemen, overal ter wereld, stoppen niet en nemen zelfs in frequentie toe, zo lijkt het. 

Ook in ons land worden met de regelmaat van de klok vreemde geluiden gehoord en dit keer is het raak in Vlissingen. 



Via een lezer ontvingen wij de volgende video (dank!). 

Zijn commentaar: 


Afgelopen nacht was er in Vlissingen een mysterieus geluid te horen in de lucht, het leek op het blazen van een scheepshoorn. Maar dit kon uitgesloten worden omdat er nauwelijks tot geen scheepvaartverkeer op dat moment aanwezig was. 

Het geluid was 15 minuten lang te horen, daarna verdween het weer. Veel mensen uit het westen en zuiden van het land hoorden de afgelopen weken/jaren vreemde tonen in de lucht, maar ze weten niet waar die vandaan komen. 

Over de hele wereld worden vreemde geluiden uit de hemel waargenomen. Sommige van deze geluiden lijken heel erg op dat van een trompet. 



Vorig jaar was het ook al raak in de buurt van Vlissingen. Toen was er ook een mysterieus geluid te horen dat naar verluid wekenlang duurde. 

Bewoners van de Zeewijksingel in Oost-Souburg liggen 's nachts wakker van mysterieuze geluiden in hun wijk. En niemand weet wat het drietonige geluid is en waar het precies vandaan komt. 

De tonen zijn al wekenlang te horen. Met vaste prik, om de tien minuten. Eerst een lage toon, gevolgd door een iets hogere toon, daarna een pauze van enkele seconden en dan een nog schellere toon die zo'n vier seconden aanhoudt. Verslaggever Mark van Leijden was in de wijk en hoorde de vreemde tonen meermaals. 


 

Uiteindelijk kwam de gemeente Vlissingen met een “oplossing”. 

Een verkeerd afgestelde cv-ketel, is de enige oorzaak voor het mysterieuze geluid in Oost-Souburg die de gemeente Vlissingen nu kan bedenken. 


Leuk bedacht, maar vreemde trompet-achtige geluiden komen overal ter wereld voor en ook in gebieden waar ze geen CV ketels hebben. 

 

Dit fenomeen is eerder voorgekomen in de geschiedenis van de mensheid, zoals wij eerder schreven: 


Er wordt volop gespeculeerd, maar niemand heeft een antwoord. 

Maar er is dan ook niemand in mainstream-land en de aan hen geliëerde alternatieve media die teruggaat in de tijd en ontdekt dat dit eerder is voorgekomen. 

In de tijd waarin er in de Kolbrin bijbel wordt gesproken van de Verwoester. 

Ook in de Kolbrin Bijbel wordt gesproken over vreemde geluiden: “Zij zullen de trompetten horen en de strijdkreet van de Verwoester” en “De ster zong zoals nog nooit eerder was voorgekomen".

British triangle UFO transforms in white sphere

A British witness at Wolverhampton recalled a UFO incident from 2007 when a triangle-shaped object was seen hovering under 60 feet off the ground, according to testimony in Case 81208 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness first saw the object as having 40 feet in height and hovering under 60 feet off the ground. Pictured: Wolverhampton, United Kingdom. Credit: Google.

The witness was outside walking along a “previously busy lane” in an industrial area about 7:10 p.m. on October 25, 2007, when the incident occurred.

“Having just crossed over a railway bridge, I looked up across the land to my left and saw a triangular UFO,” the witness stated. “It was equilateral, around 40 feet in height and hovered vertically at about 50 or 60 feet. It was dark/black, had three lights at each apex and one in the center. They were mainly white though changed to rose gold and red pink at times and intermittently flashed on and off.”

The triangle UFO then moved and hovered over a timber yard. Pictured: Wolverhampton, United Kingdom. Credit: Google.

The witness described what happened next.

“The UFO, still in the vertical plane, hovered 100 feet to the east and more adjacent to my view. Now, clearly above a timber yard, it moved short distances, to the left, right, down and up. After around two minutes from the first sighting, the UFO, then stationary and still vertical, transformed into a giant spherical, white light, which disappeared and five lights shot upwards and outwards in different directions at great speed.”

The witness recalls handling the situation well.

“With hindsight, I realize I watched the whole thing very calmly and objectively, which surprises me as it was one of the most astonishing and life changing events I have witnessed and has led to an enormous fascination with the UFO phenomena. I feel very lucky indeed.”

Date of discovery: January 18, 2017
Location of discovery: Earths Moon, 
Method used: Google Moon
Coordinates: 83°55'14.20"S 121°31'6.46"E

Welcome to the shadow structures of Earths moon. These are large structures hidden in the shadows of the dark side of the moon and polar regions. Locations that are hard to view from Earth. The structures are proof that the moon is actually a hollow space station created by ancient aliens long before Earth was even created...moon samples concur with this conclusion. Look at the high perfect detail of the surrounding area and you will know that this is not pixilation, but 100% authentic structures found hidden within the shadows. All I did was added a smidgen of light to the photos, the rest is all moon.


The moon's mean density is 3.34 gm/cm3 (3.34 times an equal volume of water) whereas the Earth's is 5.5. What does this mean? In 1962, NASA scientist Dr. Gordon MacDonald stated, "If the astronomical data are reduced, it is found that the data require that the interior of the moon is more like a hollow than a homogeneous sphere." Nobel chemist Dr. Harold Urey suggested the moon's reduced density is because of large areas inside the moon where is "simply a cavity." MIT's Dr. Sean C. Solomon wrote, "the Lunar Orbiter experiments vastly improved our knowledge of the moon's gravitational field... indicating the frightening possibility that the moon might be hollow." In Carl Sagan's treatise, Intelligent Life in the Universe, the famous astronomer stated, "A natural satellite cannot be a hollow object."


So, as you see, the theory of a hollow moon is more realistic than that of a solid authentic moon.

Date of sighting: January 17, 2017
Location of sighting: Earths orbit at ISS
Source: NASA Live Cams
 
Watch as this UFO rises up from earths atmosphere at the horizon and then moves closer for a few seconds, then moves away in the opposite direction. We not only get to see movement, but how smoothly these UFOs move, as if they were though controlled and move as the speed the pilots think. Excellent catch byStreetcap1 of Youtube.

Date of sighting: January 15, 2017
Location of sighting: Yueyang, China
This floating city in the sky was recorded over Yueyang, China a few days ago. That is a city of about 1 million people so I am sure loads of people noticed it. I believe that this is a UFO mothership that is using the China smog problem for its own benefit so that it can make a rare appearance by flying low and doing some serious research on the humans in Yueyang city. This is not the only time that such a strange event has ever occurred. It has been seen several times a year in China over various cities, last time a floating city was hovering above water. Also another floating city was seen in the sky that was 5 times bigger than the city below and very high up, looking more like an ancient castle than anything else. Aliens are highly interested in China as you can see.

Date of sighting: January 17, 2017
Location of sighting: Penvmpakan, China

This week in China there was a UFO sighting in downtown Penvmpakan, which as you can see, caused a crowd to gather as two or more UFOs flew near a contrail in the sky. In the video, two large white disks are seen moving to the right of the screen. The crowd is so in awe, most forgot they had cellphones, but you do notice them pointing at the sky. Lucky for us, one person managed to get a shot of them. Proof that UFOs are no strangers to China.

General Twining’s Air Material Command UFO Report

General Twining

Air Accident Report by General Twining to Headquarters, July 16, 1947.

 Twining was asked to study UFO reports; he recommended that a formal study of the phenomenon take place; Project Sign was the result. General Twining flight logs of 1947 have been recently released in the past few years. Also, Twining’s pilot flight logs have been reviewed, so his whereabouts between July 7th and July 9th 1947 have been confirmed and authenticate part of this document. This trip to New Mexico was Twining’s one and only trip during summer of 1947.

IPU Summary Page 4 states the following: – 7th July 1947 – Twinning went to Alamogordo AAF for a secret meeting with AAF Chief of Staff Spaatz and to view recovered remains of craft from crash landing site 20 miles northwest of Socorro.8th July 1947 – Twinning went to Kirtland AAF to inspect parts recovered from its power plant.    9th July 1947 – Twining & staff went to White Sands Proving Ground to inspect pieces of craft being stored there.   10th July 1947 – Twining made inspection of R&D facilities at Alamagordo and then returned to Wright Field.

This three page bureaucratic report provides the first glimpses of Lt. General Nathan F. Twining’s Air Accident Report originally published in Leonard Stringfield’s (now deceased) Status Report VII, in 1994.

Twining apparently describes in detail the inside of a “flying disc”, everything from typewriter-like keys that control the propulsion system to a thirty-five foot doughnut shaped one-inch tube inside the craft filled with a clear substance and a coil of copper-like material.

Twining’s  engineers  from Engineering Division T-3 scientific personnel from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and other educated experts report that the object was not manufactured by the US, Germany or the USSR for a variety of reasons including; lack of any known design resemblance, lack of external propulsion system and power plant, and the lack of identifying markings.

The experts theorized about how the craft is powered, how it moves, and how and where it is controlled from, but there is no real knowledge beyond the theories. The inability f or the experts to prove the object to be made in any of the advanced technological societies on Earth is intriguing and thought provoking. The significance and consistency of the technological societies is intriguing and thought provoking. The significance and consistency of the technical content has not been evaluated, although it is clear that the writing is consistent with 1947 state of the art, not modern.

Stanton Friedman met with Twining’s pilot from instruction with Twining’s wife, to find out information about Twining meeting with President Truman on 25th September 1947as reported in Humelsine dictation to President Truman on this date.   There was no record of meeting with Truman on Twining’s pilot flight log, but his pilot said Twining sometimes made secret flights himself, with Truman actually flying the plane. Twining’s personal flight log  does actually state that he flew to a meeting with Truman on that date  and also flew to Wright Field on same day. Why did Hummelsine send a memo to Truman dictated from Marshall?  Hummelsine was executive secretary to Marshall. Hummelsine’s office was in Washington, and on this date Marshall was miles away at the UN (building in progress) building in New York, so Marshall would have had to dictate his memo over the telephone to Hummel sine. Until this document came out, hardly anyone in Ufology had even heard of Hummelsine. 1st Annual Report of Majestic Twelve 1952 – Page 11  http://www.majesticdocuments.com/documents/pre1948.php

 Dr. Teller Claims Great Menace from Space Exists

Edward Teller, Ph.D., in memo to President Ronald Reagan states, “A menace greater than the nuclear arms race exists. It does not originate here on Earth, but comes from space itself.”

President Ronald Reagan awarded physicist Edward Teller, Ph.D., the National Medal of Science in 1983. Teller was Director of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (1958-1960) and then an Associate Director. He also served concurrently as a Professor of Physics at the University of California, Berkeley. He was a tireless advocate of a strong nuclear program. In 1975, he retired and was named Director Emeritus of the Livermore Laboratory.

President Reagan and  Dr. Teller

In the 1980s, Teller began a strong campaign for the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), also called “Star Wars”, the concept of using lasers or satellites to destroy incoming Russian ICBMs or possibly alien incursions. Teller lobbied with government agencies—and got the sanction of President Ronald Reagan—for his plan to develop a system using elaborate satellites which used atomic weapons to fire X-ray lasers at incoming missiles.

The project was eventually scaled back but now exists in altered form. Teller was later encouraged, however, by the Bush administration’s revitalization of the missile defense program in the early 21st century (known to its critics as “Son of Star Wars”) that is at least partially effective against some alien incursions. Fortunately, it has curbed North Korea and other nations from launching missile attacks on the US.

William Tompkins Reveals Solar Warden on the Jeff Rense Radio program

William Mills Tompkins

William Mills Tompkins is one of the most important witnesses to come forward revealing details about the Secret Space Program and human interactions with ETs. Due to his excellent memory and model building skills he was assigned to Naval Intelligence working for Admiral Rick Abatta during World War II and his unit had a series of US Naval spies who returned from Germany who had discovered that the Germans were working on advanced wingless aircraft or types of discs apparently with the help of extraterrestrials.

 Tomkins job was to take this information to various aviation companies, universities and research organizations. Later he worked for Douglas Aircraft Company from 1950 to 1963, in the late 1960s he was hired by TRW and off and on with NASA, Northrop, and Boeing. He worked in highly secret think tanks helping to develop advanced space ships. Tomkins revealed information about the space fleet he helped build the Jeff Rense Radio program as follows:

Tompkins States: Those are essentially cruiser-type shape craft carriers. They have also hangar decks for fighter aircraft. And versions of these two are what you would call a landing assault aircraft carrier the Navy uses now. And so these then are used as assault carriers with Marines on board and they have large hangars on underneath inside. But they also operate as attack vehicles so that if you would look at it as if it were a Marine mission on the Earth, they would have attack capabilities, and they would have the large hangar deck. And so they would have small boats that would take the tanks ashore

Rense: These are LSTs [Landing Ship, Tank or tank landing ship]?

Landing Assault Carriers Wasp Class

Tompkins: No, they are not landing tanks. These vehicles are what you would class as Marine aircraft carriers that we have which are called Landing Assault Carriers. And we have a lot of them. They are 800-feet long and they operate as Marine-attack vehicles. So they have hangar decks in the back.

Rense: They operate in the ocean and they operate in space. Is that what you’re saying?
Tompkins: Well, I’m saying what you’re looking at is the space version of your U.S. Navy Landing Assault Carriers that we have here. (Wasp Class)

Rense: Okay. That’s the space version. I got it, all right.

Tompkins: This is a space version. Now, you notice that it’s sort of streamlined. And, of course, everybody says, we don’t need streamlining out in the galaxy. We don’t need that.

Rense: You do if you’re in water though.

Tompkins: Well, yeah, but you’re not in water either. But if the vehicle is going to have to get into an atmosphere on some planet, that their misunderstanding is, they have to have a streamlined shape.

Rense: I see. Any planet atmosphere would require an aerodynamic capability, and that’s what you’re showing. Yes, okay.

Hillenkotter.jpg

Tompkins: That’s what you’re showing here. And so a lot of people say, on some of the other configurations that I’ve got of different ones that we did the design on, they’re streamlined. And so this is a space vehicle that would operate like Marines would out there and many of the missions that we designed for the Navy, for Navy-space, in that secret think tank, were landing assault space vehicles to land on planets that were part of the war. So that’s what you’ve got here are two versions of them. They’re not copies. They’re different. And they had similar weapon systems. Okay, could we go to the large tubular shape extraterrestrial

Rense: Yes, of course, USSS Hillenkoetter.
Tompkins: Yes. Hillenkoetter.

Rense: Hillenkoetter. All right, now, that looks like a traditional cigar-shaped craft with four . . . one, two, three, four, five domes on the end of it. Four are rounded, top bottom, side, side, and then the end is rounded as well. That’s what we’d call, I guess, a cigar, for lack of a better term. What is that we’re looking at?

Tompkins: Okay, it’s a spacecraft carrier, and when Frank Chille and I were talking about this earlier today, he on his computer blew up the hole in the side of it – the rectangular hole near the middle.

Rense: Uh huh.

Tompkins: And actually you’re looking, as you pull it up, you can see you’re in a hangar deck and you can see four vehicles in there.

Rense: I can barely see them. Yeah.

Tompkins: And so it’s an interesting illustration. And, again, you can count . . . I think there are nine sections that you can actually see. They’ve done an excellent illustration there. And you can see the various sections.

Rense: Excuse me, Bill. Are those sections put together like the Germans used to build their submarines in the war?

Tompkins: Yes, that’s the way we put together submarines. And it’s the way we put together ships.

Rense: Okay.

Tompkins: But you’ve got to realize that you’ve got almost a 1,000-foot long vehicle to play with here and so the tubular sections . . . This is very interesting that they used that one, because it’s the least expensive structure that you can come up with.

If you look at the old Lockheed 4-engine transports that we had in the earlier days here in this country, the fuselage was streamlined. It was four engines and three rudders and it was streamlined. And then you look at the Boeing . . .

Rense: Was that like the Super Constellation, the Lockheed?

Tompkins: Yeah a Super Constellation of Lockheed. Okay. Then if you look at the DC4 that Douglas had, it’s a big tube. You know? We didn’t need the thing to be streamlined, but they really didn’t check that at Lockheed. And at Douglas it was the cheapest thing to make. So that philosophy was carried right through to the design you’re looking at. It doesn’t have to be streamlined, because this is only operating out in the galaxy. So there’s no . . . This is never going to land.

Rense: I understand. They’d send the smaller ships down. Sure.

Tompkins: Yeah. So it’s different than the photographs of the two we just looked at.

Rense: Where did this picture come from, Bill? Do you know?

Tompkins: I don’t know where this one came from, but this is one of dozens of these that are sometimes quite different in shape.

Rense: Uh huh.

Tompkins: It’s the spacecraft carrier of the space and takes the mission of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier and it’s nice they showed you the new one down at the bottom of the picture, because you can compare the size.


Spaceship Video Over England

Rense: Wow! Well this reminds me . . . Yeah, I see the size comparison. This reminds me of images that a fellow in England was getting. Do you remember this guy, George Filer? I used to run his stuff all the time – his videos. He had a telescope and he hooked it up to a video making lots of footage of what appeared to be enormous craft in orbit around the Earth. Long. They weren’t quite as sleek as the Hillenkoetter, but they were big. They were different. They were, obviously, constructions of some type that were floating around up there. Do you remember that, George? That guy . . . I forgot the guy’s name. I used to run his footage all the time.

Major George Filer: Yes, I’ve seen some of those.

Rense: Yeah, they’re very interesting.

Note: I appear on the Jeff Rense Radio show the first Tuesday of each month at 10 PM eastern. .

The Final Revelation

In this new and controversial book, The Final Revelation; the Sun Project a group of former military and intelligence analysts break the code of silence and share their knowledge of what could be the most closely guarded secret in the history of mankind. And while some people may dismiss these claims, the evidence is growing every day that intelligent extraterrestrial life exists based on almost daily feedback from the fleet of space probes NASA has scattered throughout the solar system. In fact, NASA estimates there are conservatively 14 billion earth-like planets within our Milky Way galaxy alone. The questions regarding UFOs, UFOs and the US Government, alien abductions, and the truth about the Roswell incident, as well as secrets concerning Extraterrestrials on Earth, their relationship with the church, and ET involvement in the origins and destiny of  humankind are addressed here.

These highly regarded sources address some of the most popular topics concerning the UFO phenomenon including recently discovered Roswell Base Logs and Reports, what is real and what is not regarding some of the most infamous UFO Reports like the Hudson Valley sightings and the flying triangles as well as classified reports concerning UFO Abduction Cases such as Betty and Barney Hill and Travis Walton, the Apollo 13 mystery, the government sponsored archaeological Search for Extraterrestrial Artifacts (SETA) and the secret SETI missions assigned to every space probe, the government’s weapon’s initiatives for Managing an ET Threat including the Inspiration for the HAARP Project, the Church’s Long-Standing Involvement in the UFO Phenomena and association with the notorious Men in Black, secret programs for achieving Global Dominance using the ET Advantage, and Evidence of ET Involvement in Human Evolution and the Ecosystem.

The information presented will challenge the reader’s sense of reality.

 Fukushima Much Bigger Than Chernobyl

Japan’s nuclear disaster is “much bigger than Chernobyl” and could rewrite the international scale used to measure the severity of atomic accidents, a Russian expert said. “Chernobyl was a dirty bomb explosion. The next dirty bomb is Fukushima and it will cost much more” in economic and human terms, said Natalia Mironova, a thermodynamic engineer and anti-nuclear activist in Russia.

Chernobyl, which a 2005 report by UN bodies called “the most severe in the history of the nuclear power industry,” was ranked a seven on the International Nuclear Event Scale (INES). Mironova said, “Chernobyl was level seven and it had only one reactor and lasted only two weeks. We have now have years from Fukushima and we have four reactors which we know are in very dangerous situations,” she warned. Environmental groups such as Greenpeace say up to 100,000 people could die.

UFOs have a way of showing up before, during and after natural disasters. This recent earthquake of 2011 has seen an increase in UFO activity just prior to the disaster with many seen during and after Fukushima in Japan.

Two globes the size of beach balls, one black and the other fuzzy white, both opaque with short tails, were seen by a helicopter exiting the 20 foot wave onto the beach in Japan. See Videos of tsunami on YouTube.com/ Japan. Sincerely, Thomas G. Lee c

Japan’s Nuclear Plants Dumps Radioactive Water into Sea

Contaminated water pouring out of the Fukushima nuclear plant has raised concerns about the safety of seafood prompting the government to set limits for the first time on the amount of radiation permitted in fish. The company that owns the plant, Tokyo Electric Power Co., said that the leak of highly radioactive water had been stopped.

According to the Agence France –Presse TEMPCO was pumping 300 tons of groundwater for treatment before pumping into storage. It is tested for radiation and then pumped into the Pacific Ocean. The company has frequently been criticized for dumping large amounts of radioactive water into the sea.

The leak had lessened after the company began pouring liquid glass into gravel below the concrete pit that had been the source of the leak. Radiation is some 5 million times the legal limits. The Japanese built 40 percent of their coast with seawalls that were only 33 feet high. When the 9.0 quake hit and the Tsunami went over the seawalls the diesel-powered generators and water pumps on the ground floors of the nuclear power plants stopped. The temperature rose to 2200 degrees F that led to explosions and fire in the reactors. Workers the real heroes fighting the catastrophe tried to contain the overheating, fires, possible meltdowns and radioactivity. Five years later the radiation continues to flow into the Pacific Ocean causing the death of many types of sea life and danger to you if you eat the fish.

Celene Pascal of American University did a study of the content of 2100 articles and editorials published in the New York Times, Washington Post, Politico and Huffington Post. Pascal found only 6 % referred to the risk to the general public. This is a significant finding for the focus of the news media during the largest nuclear disaster in history does not protect the public. Thanks to Nexus Magazine

UFO Sightings in the United States

Arizona Lights

Scottsdale — I was working as a Licensed Armed Security Guard, at a residential community at around 11 pm on November 26, 2016, I saw an orb. It was a bright amber/red color far outside of the flight path for the nearby Sky Harbor International Airport. The orb did not move but had unusual solid color. I soon saw an airplane much closer to me that was not the orb.

So I began taking pictures of it, because I thought it might be a UFO. It was soon joined by two other similar craft – which also hovered in place near to it changing colors. After 15-20 minutes I watched them disappear, rapidly one after the other over the McDowell Mountain Regional Park. These photos are the original images with a “zoom” of the lights to the right.

Rancho Santa Margarita — On New Year’s Day, on January 1, 2017 at midnight to 1AM in the morning, I was going for a quick walk around the local lake, and I saw these “Lights” in the side of my vision, so then I looked and then I fully saw them, there was about 6 of these “Lights” at first, and they were going away from the local forest/mountains, they were flying away slowly, and THEY CHANGED DIRECTION RAPIDLY.

And after that, two more fast moving lights came from the forest/mountains on the same path of the others. These are not helicopters or airplanes. When they got about a mile away from the mountains they vanished from plain sight. Thanks to MUFON CMS

San Pedro/Long Beach – On January 3, 2017, I was closing our blinds for evening and noticed a bright “star” over the ocean at 9:15 pm. I decided to take out my binoculars and I was surprised to see this large energy ball. There were several orbs and the south orb was the brightest. I took video and still shots with my iPhone. It did not capture what I saw in detail. The orb actually danced with red, blue green and blue auras of lights. It looked like a round ball of DNA, changing to look like the New York crystal ball dropping on New Years. I watched it for about an hour just fascinated. The ball that was the brightest broke in three pieces and shot off. The next night at 7 pm, my husband saw what I saw and then it disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Lights

Saint Augustine —  On Friday night December 30, 2016, about 9:45, I saw what I believe to be a UFO making a beachside visit from the northwest to the southeastern sky. I was going out to my car to go into St. Augustine and glanced to the Northern Sky towards Jacksonville. I thought it might be a Coast Guard helicopter but noticed the lights did not flash, and there was no sound. It was not one object but at least 10 that I saw, almost in a row but still staggered. There was no sound at all, just an orangish globe like a giant lantern. Probably about 2000 feet up. It was not moving very fast. They appeared to be moving effortlessly and not really in a hurry. I was almost hyperventilating by this point as it was cold and I did not have a jacket on. I didn’t think I would be outside this long. My feeling was don’t go away. The objects finally disappeared heading southeast over the Atlantic. Our phone batteries died at the same time outside so we plugged them in, they “jumped” to 50 percent charged immediately.

Idaho Disc

Horseshoe Band — This is a short story. I was on Jerusalem Road outside of Horseshoe Bend ID. I stopped to take a picture of the landscape. I saw no planes in the air nor did I hear anything. There were no birds around. Later when I reviewed the picture an object was present. This photo was taken on a Samsung Galaxy 3

Note. A second photo of the same site showed nothing. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Kentucky Triangle

Louisville — My son was looking for his phone and picked it up and a Google satellite was somehow pulled up on his phone on January 7, 2017

He was like what the heck, so he started looking at what the satellite map was on. He realized it was on our house, he was shocked to see an object hovering over our house.

The object appears to be triangle in shape and brown in color. He snapped shots from different angles. I am not sure what this object is, it could be a leaf or something on the satellite lens, but looks to be a UFO. Was a UFO was really over our house? Thanks to MUFON CMS

Michigan Disc

Holland — Heavy overcast skies with snow falling with 19 degrees outside and a wind-chill of three degrees. We first thought it was a plane, however the object was disk shaped glow with a dome at the top-center. Glow was seen through grey skies with a blanket style cloud-cover at roughly 8:30 PM on January 4, 2017.

The light faded slightly and grew brighter, and lasted roughly 15 seconds then moved west slowly over Lake Michigan. It may have traveled upward slightly as it moved away. It was very, very large in size. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Sightings

Wrightstown — While standing at Gate 6 at McGuire Air Force Base looking into the woods I saw a small 4 foot entity with big eyes on January `1 1989, It was possibly naked  and climbed swiftly over a fence, stopped looked at me then proceeded to jump another fence and disappeared. It was humanoid but not human. Later when telling the story to another military serviceman he told me that the base’s water treatment plant operator saw an identical creature recently. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Shamong — On December 29, 2016, at 1:00 am, I was outside my home to take the dog out when I noticed a very bright, cross shaped “star”. It appeared brighter than any other stars in nearby constellations, which could be observed in the clear southern night sky. This anomaly appeared to pulsate, change color, and moved slowly, with abrupt changes in direction.

I immediately retrieved my cell phone and Nikon digital camera. With a clear view of this anomaly, and while holding the cameras steady, Over the course of two hours, I was able to capture 44 still digital pictures and several good videos. The anomaly remained at the time I went inside my home.

Over the past two years, I have observed, recorded, and reported similar anomalies in this same south/area of the night sky. Close ups reveal a multi-colored “chain” or tube like anomaly that moves at random and appears to morph as quickly as digital photos can be taken. Digital video shows a bright blue orb type anomaly, quickly moving about while appearing brighter or dimmer at random (possibly due to rapidly changing its distance from the observer).

Coincidentally, on this same evening two years ago, I observed and reported an identical appearing anomaly, in this same south/southeast area. Please note: I am a certified MUFON NJ Field Investigator. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Browns Mills – I was outside in my backyard looking at the bright moon on December 9, 2016, so I took a picture of it Weeks Later I looked at the picture and I see another light in the picture to the left side from the Moon so I enlarge the picture and I seen a triangular shaped object which looks to be a light in each corner of it. It looks like many of the other pictures people have sent in of triangular UFOs, I live close to McGuire Air Force Base but this does not look like a plane.

New York Lights

 New York — I was walking down West End Avenue after 5:00 PM on the first evening of the New Year January 4, 2017. I was photographing the young moon and Venus. The skies were clear, at first a deep Parish blue and then black, when I uploaded the photographs to my computer I observed a white shape above the moon and slightly to the west. It resembled a classic cylinder UFO. With the shape that seems to have a bubble top. The shape does not appear in any of the other photographs. I did not notice any objects in the sky when I took the photograph. I did have momentary trouble with the camera, and had to press the button several times before I got the picture. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Oklahoma Light

Tulsa – I was at work driving in the yard on January 3, 2017, and noticed some lights that I’ve never seen before.

I attempted to get a video of the lights but the picture was too dark. So I then tried to take some pictures with my phone.

The lights just hovered in the distance. As I changed to the black and white filter on my phone, the lights started to disappear one by one. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Pennsylvania Light

I was out walking our large high energy dog who is a Chesapeake Bay retriever around 6:30 pm and a few minutes into our walk she just suddenly sat down and would not move on January 9, 2017. This is completely unlike her, and it was then that I realized she was looking up into the sky at something and as soon as I looked up, I was suddenly mesmerized by this glowing, stationary orb like object that she was looking at as well. I have never seen anything like it. I have worked in aviation and with many airlines, and I know this object was not like anything that I have ever seen. I know this was a UFO. I can’t explain it but judging by the physical and emotionally overwhelming reaction that I felt during the sighting, I just “knew”. After several minutes, my dog nudged me to go back inside, but I just couldn’t. I took some videos and pictures, and as soon as I began recording, I suddenly saw two other lights in the sky. The original orb I saw continued to hover in the same position, while the other two were following what looked like normal flight paths. Then suddenly one made a strange maneuver that seemed very abrupt turned toward the object in question and seemed to have intentionally crossed into the area where the orb was that I had seen initially. It was at that moment that the orb started to slowly move “backwards” as if it were a car that was in reverse, and disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Big Object

League City — My son and I were on our way home when I noticed this huge object coming towards us on December 22, 2016. At first I thought it was a hand glider but as it got closer it clearly was not a hand glider. This object was big. It was not a drone. It did not make any noise. It was going at a steady pace. I was driving so I had my son take the picture. I have never seen anything like it. I do not even know how to describe.

Washington Lights

 Issaquah — I woke up in bed, and my cat was on the coffee table in my bedroom and I noticed something had her attention on January 4, 2017. I got out of bed and went over to her and noticed large orange/red lights moving south slowly towards Tiger Mountain. I became confused because there was no noise and it was dark. I felt anxious, as it was low and close!

I grabbed my cell phone to take a photo, when I looked back out the window the lights had vanished. The time was 3:30 am.

I wondered if what I saw was a stealth bomber or a large drone? I had a hard time getting back to sleep. The next day at work I had the worst headache ever. I took the following day off work; the pain in my head went away in the late afternoon. Attached is a drawing of what I saw and I have filed a report in Calgary, Canada. My first sighting was in Glasgow, Scotland where there was a mass sighting that made nationwide news. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Worldwide UFO Sightings

Australia Lights

Marino Rocks — On the 3rd of January 2016, at 7:55 pm a friend and I were driving in my hometown of Adelaide, and pulled up next to the ocean and noticed what I thought was a part of a rainbow shining through the clouds. It only contained three colors and I realized it wasn’t a rainbow but could have been some sort of reflection or refraction of the sun. My neighbors rushed out with his SLR to take some pictures. So everyone was photographing the strange object. When I studied the photos later I noticed the objects light was actually reflecting off the water in some photos so possibly was producing its own light?

Even stranger it wasn’t until I looked at the pictures later that I noticed a green ball. Initially it was in all the photos taken and was moving rapidly. My friend sent me his pictures appear to show four lights in the object that weren’t evident in my photos. He used a Samsung Galaxy S7 and I was using an iPhone 6 plus. Also the object looks rounder in his pictures. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Canada Cylinder

St-Alphonse-Rodrigue — My spouse and I remain in the country with low light pollution. We were on vacation in August 2016 and saw a particularly brilliant star which we had never noticed before. We could see that the star moved slightly and we saw some color chips. So I went to get my cell phone and a pair of binoculars. We saw it every night and drove higher into the mountain. The thing seemed to get closer to us and we were afraid. I took hundreds of photos. As of October, the observations become more intense when we note that there is more than one. One November night, there were 6. All were “posted” over lakes. There are over 40 lakes in the area. We went back to meet them, too overwhelmed by the event. We know that they are not stars. These “stars” remain stationary and are below the clouds. The object changes its shapes and colors, as if it makes us understands us. These are not stars, nor drone, nor anything known. My last observation was last night on January 6, 2017, at 3:30 AM; she was still in the same place. Thanks to MUFON CMS

China Light

Shanghai — I saw three blinking objects that formed triangle at “Oriental Pearl Tower” on September 26, 2016. It seems they were hovering in the same place about 30 minutes and keeping triangle formation.

All objects had several lights, and blinking up to down. The lowest position light has maximum size.  All lights were shining colored pink or purple.

Columbia Black Object

Columbia-Vallepou20Dec16.gif

Valledupar — An object of black color that was descending on the river bank of our city on December 20, 2016,

It did not make noise and was diamond-shaped and seemed like a kind of combat aircraft.

There is a battalion of engineers from the Colombian army in the area.

Israel Cloud

Jerusalem — On December 28, 2016, at 11:00 PM, a strange cloud was captured. The way I understand the case of these strange Jerusalem clouds, a mass of cool dense air happened to be sitting just above these cumulus clouds and began to sink. This created a vertical wind, a downdraft, a column of cold air that traveled downward through the center of the clouds.  The downward moving winds caused a low pressure condition, and that’s why the clouds surrounding the downdraft were drawn in toward the center, in a circular pattern. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EY88I8EepjE

Mexico Cylinders

Mexico City – On January 5, 2017 a tourist spotted a series of cylinder shaped craft flying above the city at high altitude.

Thanks to Tom

 Spain Lights

Alicante — We were sitting on our balcony looking out to sea across to Benidorm Island when a strange object suddenly appeared to the right of the horizon. It kept haphazardly pulsating and appeared to change shape and glowed. It moved from west to east and appeared to go over the top of Benidorm Island and then we could not see any more as our view was obstructed by several buildings, as shown in the picture taken the following morning. At first, we thought it was an airplane, but then realized it definitely was not as many airplanes pass over the island and none of them looked anything like what we saw. We both felt very excited at the thought that it could have been a UFO. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK/England Lights

Portsmouth — I had just finished work and for some strange reason something caught my eye moving very slowly west from the north on September 20, 2016. I called two people that were there to look at the object, we were all saying what is it as did not move like a plane, helicopter or balloon. It stopped and hovered for a good 5 minutes before going vertically up and disappearing into the clouds. I took photos of object and a few weeks later was watching a mufon tv program and freaked out when I a saw video clip of an object in Chile flying over a volcano that looked like it was the same object.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Corby – I was both filming the almost “full moon” taking single images and was not aware of anything unusual until I checked my nights total images of 215 actuations and 5 videos. On December 13, 2016, the light appeared to be flashing intermittently in the left top centre above the moon. The small odd shape not circular was clearly bright green and had a solid shape then changed to red. It seemed to become clearer and larger. I first thought it a background star, but the anomaly moved with the moon. I have two videos and about 30 single images at between 4-6 am. I imagine its shape changed as it revolved but the colours were very vivid and a bit of a mystery. The object seemed to be hovering over one crater. I used a Nikon d5000 camera and an Opteka 1300 mm lens. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Scientists ‘prove’ that the soul does not DIE: It returns to the UNIVERSE

Scientists ‘prove’ that the soul does not DIE: It returns to the UNIVERSE

the-soul-of-the-universe

According to two leading scientists, the human brain is in fact a ‘biological computer’ and the ‘consciousness of humans’ is a program run by the quantum computer located inside the brain that even continues to exist after we ‘die.’ As experts explain it; after people die, their soul comes back to the universe, and it does not die’.

The debate about the existence of the soul and whether it is immortal or dies with the person is an endless story that for centuries has occupied the time of the great thinkers of universal history. Its mysterious nature continues to fascinate different areas of science, but now a group of researchers has discovered a new truth about it: the “soul” does not die; it returns to the universe.

Since 1996, Dr. Stuart Hameroff, an American Physicist and Emeritus in the Department of Anesthesiology and Psychology, and Sir Roger Penrose, a mathematical physicist at Oxford University, have worked in a Quantum Theory of Consciousness in which they state that the soul is maintained in microtubules of the brain cells.

Their ‘provocative’ theory states that the human soul is be contained by the brain cells in structures inside them called microtubules.

The two researchers believe the human brain is in fact a ‘biological computer’ and the ‘consciousness of humans’ is a program run by the quantum computer located inside the brain that even continues to exist after we ‘die.’

Furthermore, both scientists argue that what humans perceive as ‘consciousness’  is in fact the result of ‘quantum gravity’ effects located within the so-called ‘microtubules.’ This process is named by the two scientists “Orchestrated Objective Reduction” (Orch-OR).

The theory indicates that when people enter a phase known as ‘clinical death,’ the microtubules located in the brain lose their quantum state but maintain the information contained within them. In other words – as experts explain it after people die, their soul returns to the universe, and it does not die’.

Speaking to the Science Channel’s Through the Wormhole documentary, Dr. Hameroff said:

“Let’s say the heart stops beating, the blood stops flowing; the microtubules lose their quantum state. The quantum information within the microtubules is not destroyed, it can’t be destroyed, and it just distributes and dissipates to the universe at large. If the patient is resuscitated, revived, this quantum information can go back into the microtubules and the patient says “I had a near-death experience.” If they’re not revived, and the patient dies, it’s possible that this quantum information can exist outside the body, perhaps indefinitely, as a soul.”

According to this theory, the human souls are more than just ‘interactions’ of neurons in our brain and could have been present since the beginning of time.

MUFON, America's UFO Experts, Discuss Roswell And Possible Cover-Ups

MUFON, America's UFO Experts, Discuss Roswell And Possible Cover-Ups

The subject of UFOs has always been controversial – still is. To get a look at the subject from the perspective of MUFON, America’s premier investigator of the phenomenon, we sat down with its executive director, Jan Harzan. You may know MUFON from Hangar 1, a popular TV series recently on the History Channel about the organization and its work with unexplained UFO sightings. In part 1 of our chat below, Harzan discusses two big UFO cases, possible cover-ups, Roswell, NM, and his own encounter with a UFO. You and I may or may not agree with Harzan but his arguments are interesting.

A purported UFO over New Jersey in 1952.

(Courtesy of Wikipedia)

Jim Clash: Briefly, what is MUFON?

Jan Harzan: A membership-based 501.c.3 non-profit whose mission is, “the scientific study of UFOs for the benefit of humanity.” We offer a place for the public to report UFO sightings, and then we assign trained MUFON field investigators to contact the witness(es) and investigate the reports and determine exactly what happened. The information is then available to the public. We have over 100,0000 cases on file now, with that number growing rapidly. We are 100% publicly funded through two primary sources, memberships and donations.

JC: Give us two compelling UFO cases.

JH: One of the best-documented cases of an extraterrestrial encounter is Travis Walton from Nov. 5, 1975, near Snowflake, AZ. Travis and six co-workers had just finished clearing brush in the mountains and were heading back to town when they encountered a glowing, silvery disc-shaped craft in the forest. Travis exited the cab of the truck they were in, and approached the craft. In doing so, he was struck by a beam of light knocking him to the ground unconscious. His buddies filled with fear high-tailed it out but returned a while later to find both Travis and the saucer gone. Five days passed when Travis suddenly reappeared to tell the story of where he had been. He reported being aboard a craft and seeing creatures that did not look human. All seven of the crew and Travis took, and passed, lie-detector tests regarding their ordeal.

The second is known as the Rendlesham Forest case involving the U.S. military in Suffolk, England. Around 3 a.m. on Dec. 26, 1980, strange lights were reported by a security patrol near the east gate of RAF Woodbridge apparently descending into nearby Rendlesham Forest. Servicemen initially thought it was a downed aircraft but, upon entering the forest to investigate, they saw a strange glowing object, metallic in appearance, with colored lights. As they approached, it moved through the trees and left three impressions in the ground that were visible the next day. One of the servicemen, Sgt. Jim Penniston, later claimed to have encountered a "craft of unknown origin" and to have made detailed notes of its features, touched its "warm" surface and copied the numerous symbols that were on its body. The object flew away after their brief encounter.

JC: Why do you think governments have been buttoned up regarding the possibility of visits to Earth?

JH: Well, the real answer is we don’t know. One possible reason is because they believe, rightly or wrongly, that Earth’s population is not ready for such a revelation. Other thoughts are that the knowledge would create widespread panic, cripple the stock market and end religion as we know it. Another possible reason is that the technology these beings have is so far advanced - whether it be faster-than-light travel, time travel or other far-advanced technology - that it poses a national security threat to America, especially if these capabilities were to fall into enemy hands. I tend to think it is this latter reason.

JC: Roswell, NM - real or hoax?

JH: Real. Get a copy of the video presentation of “Recollections of Roswell” filmed by MUFON member and well-known UFO researcher Stanton Friedman. It is interviews with some 30 survivors of Roswell, including first-hand witnesses, their spouses and their children. What they tell you will send chills up your spine. If you don’t believe something extraordinary happened after watching this video, then nothing will convince you. I can tell you this: It was no weather balloon.

JC: Have you seen a UFO yourself?

JH: I had the good fortune of having a close encounter with a UFO as a kid. I was 10 years old at the time with my brother Jeff (age 9) when we witnessed a landing craft in our backyard in Thousand Oaks, CA. It was 30 feet from us, hovering 10 feet off the ground, making a humming noise much like a transformer on a telephone pole. There were four landing gear on the craft, and it was completely smooth and seamless. It was a life-changing experience, to say the least.

JC: Why should we believe extraterrestrials are interested in our planet?

JH: Well, first off I don’t think one has to believe. Just read our sighting reports - it’s happening. Why is anyone’s guess. If I had to make an educated guess, I would say first that our planet is unique, at least in our solar system, as three-quarters of it is water. And second, we are abundant in resources and rare-earth metals. Another thought is we might be known as the "vacation spot" of the universe. Seriously though, it could be for any number of reasons, perhaps even just wanting to observe and study us as humans.

(Editor's Note: For more of our interview with MUFON's Jan Harzan, including the possibility of re-engineering UFO technology, Area 51, famous people who have seen UFOs and Hangar 1, stay tuned to the Forbes channel.)

ALIENS took my eggs to create ET-human hybrids, claims ‘abducted woman’

ALIENS took my eggs to create ET-human hybrids, claims ‘abducted woman’

A WOMAN claims she was abducted by aliens, who took some of her eggs, as part of a shocking programme to create a race of alien-human hybrids.

Alien-Hybrids

GETTY

The Close Encounters Conference in Byron Bay heard claims of human-alien hybrids.

The woman, who refused to be identified and was only known as Anna, said she believes she was taken onto a spacecraft where the bizarre operation took place.

Anna is one of thousands of people, including doctors, lawyers, and pilots, who claim to have been taken by aliens.

She said: "They wanted some help with their hybrid project, so they chose me.

“I discern who I tell and who I don't because I can tell who's ready for that information and who's not.

"I don't want to freak people out."

RELATED ARTICLES

The woman spoke out at the world’s first conference which intended to convince the globe that alleged alien abductions are a positive thing.

The Close Encounters Conference in Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia, saw believers turn up to share stories.

The results of a survey of nearly 3,000 people who claim to have been abducted were also reported at the conference which ended yesterday.

The survey was conducted by the Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial Encounters (FREE), set up by the late astronaut who walked on the Moon.

FREE board member and researcher Mary Rodwell presented the survey's initial findings at the conference.

Alien abductee Anna

She said: “They've talked about seeing strange craft in the sky, being taken to a spacecraft, procedures being done to them, being educated on the craft.

"And what we're finding is that 85 per cent of people change their lifestyle after these experiences.

"What we're finding is that people are speaking about their experiences in an overwhelmingly positive way.

"Their attitude to the materialistic world changes, they become more ecologically minded, they feel more empathy for the planet and themselves, and they are being changed in ways that many people can't understand.

"When you hear doctors, nurses, social workers, pilots, celebrities, lawyers, farmers, children, talking about this experience … when they're all talking about similar things and similar patterns and you hear the emotion and the feeling, all of that is an authenticity you cannot dismiss.”

RELATED ARTICLES

Kathryn Hand organised the conference and said people had previously feared speaking out for fear of being called insane.

She said: “We found that by organising this, people have started to feel more comfortable talking about it. We're giving them a platform to talk about it.

"People are scared that if they start talking about it too openly other people might think they're crazy.

"We're bringing people together who have had encounters, and trying to make it something that can be discussed in an environment where they won't be ridiculed and where they can discover they're not alone."

'Aliens DID crash UFO at Roswell' and THIS is 'why it was covered up' A RETIRED professor says he is convinced aliens HAVE visited Earth and did crash at Roswell in the 1940s. By JON AUSTIN

'Aliens DID crash UFO at Roswell' and THIS is 'why it was covered up'

A RETIRED professor says he is convinced aliens HAVE visited Earth and did crash at Roswell in the 1940s.


Don Donderi of McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, said the US Government did recover a crashed extraterrestrial craft in the New Mexico desert near Roswell in 1947.

Mr Donderi, who has a PhD in psychology from Cornell University, even claims people have been abducted by aliens.

He is behind a course at McGill University called UFOs: History and Reality. The course argues “UFOs are real and extraterrestrial.”

He told the Montreal Gazette he believes aliens exist “beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Referring to Roswell, he said: “The US government recovered the remains of a crashed unidentified flying object or to be more correct, an extraterrestrial vehicle.

“It is believed that they also recovered bodies of dead aliens.”

Roswell has been at the heart of the UFO scene since the military announced in a press release it had found the remains of a crashed flying saucer in the nearby desert, in July 1947.

But the following day it retracted the statement, saying it was in fact a damaged US Air Force air balloon.

Witnesses later came forward to say there had been alien bodies within the "crashed craft", which along with the wreckage were then taken to the mysterious top-secret Area 51 military base in Nevada.

Mr Donderi explained why the events had been covered up.

He said: “The technology involved is extremely advanced; the implications for human society are incredible and possibly upsetting because we are under surveillance by technologically superior beings from other planets.

“We don’t know how to do what they do. We don’t know what their motives are or their interests are. 

“And at the moment, as far as I know, we don’t have any active defences or preparations to deal with the situation. 

“So it’s obviously upsetting. Secrecy is because when governments, any government, gets hold of new technology, and want to figure out how it works, their first interest is protecting their own turf on this and not sharing it with the world.”

Asked if he was certain of aliens existing, he said: “I’m 100 per cent certain of that.

“Some of what people report as UFOs are extraterrestrial vehicles. That proposition, I believe, is established beyond reasonable doubt. 

“Proposition two is that some of the extraterrestrial vehicles have ET crews, and proposition three is that some of these ET crews ‘catch and release’ humans to study them, so-called alien abductions. 

“Proposition two, I think, is established beyond a reasonable doubt, and proposition three is bound on probabilities.

“I know many people. I’d say 10, at least, who have claimed to be abducted. And in many cases, I respect their claims because I think they’re based on sound evidence.”

New ‘Mothman’ Documentary Recounts Actual Events in the 1960’s

New ‘Mothman’ Documentary Recounts Actual Events in the 1960’s

mothman3

I’m obsessed with the “Mothman”, a winged creature with beaming red eyes that typical appears before a major disaster. They once made an excellent movie about it, The Mothman Prophecies, which starred Richard Gere as a reporter who is drawn to a small West Virginia town to investigate a series of strange events, including psychic visions and the appearance of bizarre entities.

The Mothman of Point Pleasant chronicles the historic happenings that took place over the span of 13 months in 1966-67 in West Virginia. After a late-night run in with a freakish flying “thing” near an abandoned munitions factory, four people report their sighting to local police which sparks a “media frenzy”. Over the following year more strange happenings take place as Men in Black and UFOs descend on the town.

But what actually happened in Point Pleasant? Learn the true story behind the infamous motorman accounts from the people who lived them in this follow-up to STM’s award-winning “Boggy Creek Monster”.

[Related] How Can We Not Talk About This Real Photo of an Alleged Demon Monster?

The documentary film looks to retell the Mothman legend through eyewitness testimony and the perspective of Point Pleasant citizens. The Mothman was first sighted in 1966 and sightings continued until around the time a bridge that connected the West Virginia town of Point Pleasant to the Ohio town of Gallipolis collapsed in 1967. The documentary will tell not only the Mothman stories but the entire thirteen month span between the first sightings and the bridge collapse.

Seth Breedlove, the film’s director promises recently-discovered history connected to the Mothman legends as well as new, untold encounter stories. He goes on the say that the collapse of the Silver Bridge is integral to the story but does not believe the tragedy was connected to the Mothman stories.

Small Town Monsters has produced three award-winning films including the recent, Boggy Creek Monster which took all honors at the annual Hollywood International Independent Documentary Awards. Production of The Mothman of Point Pleasant was entirely self-financed though, a Kickstarter campaign to help fund post-production (as well as a fifth STM film, already in the works) will launch on February 2nd.

The Mothman of Point Pleasant has tapped Brandon Dalo to compose an original score (heard briefly in the teaser) and author and television personality, Lyle Blackburn, to executive produce and narrate. Zac Palmisano has returned as director of photography while Seth Breedlove directs, writes, and produces the film. Famed poster artist, Sam Shearon will contribute a brand new take on the Mothman in the official one-sheet

Are Aliens The Same As Machines Of The Future? Find Out As A Group Of Astronomers Claim Machines And Aliens Are Nothing But Similar

Are Aliens The Same As Machines Of The Future? Find Out As A Group Of Astronomers Claim Machines And Aliens Are Nothing But Similar

Considering that no one exactly knows what aliens look like and whether they really exist or not, a number of UFO enthusiasts believe that aliens might not be the typical humanoid creatures that we've been expecting it to be. On Neil deGrasse Tyson's science show "Star Talk," SETI Astronomer Seth Shotsak and comedian Michael Ian Black have recently discussed alien sightings and the way aliens are portrayed in the media nowadays. Shotsak claimed that aliens do have the ability of sending signals that can be detected by the Earth's most advanced set of technologies and will likely transcend beyond the biological form to live instead as intelligent machines. Hence, it is not impossible that an all-digital civilization will soon take place, he adds.

Are Aliens The Same As Machines Of The Future?

In one of his statements reported by CNet, the SETI astronomer was quoted to have said that one-third of the US population are allegedly hooked into the UFO phenomena. He explains that there are roughly 10,000-20,000 sightings reported every year in the US, so that's considerably a lot. Shotsak has also added that with the forms of technology the humanity has, he believes that aliens have already done that way past ahead of us which makes him even more convinced that the real aliens probably look like machines.

Furthermore, as Daily Mail reports it, futurist Ray Kurzweil has also claimed that the idea of singularity, when humans will merge with technology, was apparently projected to take place in 2045. On the other hand, it was found that the SETI astronomer believes that the time when it will take place doesn't actually matter anymore because the bottomline is, the phenomenon is inevitable. The expert also added that this is also the same path that we should be expecting for intelligent alien life as well. Ultimately, the researcher explained that the machines humans create for themselves will just eventually continue to get smarter at an accelerated rate, which would then mark the creation of better and better technologies.

A series of images that has been taken in quick succession has recently been the talk of the town as it has went viral online. The discussion surrounds a seemingly mysterious object being taken under a spooky full moon's night which has then been linked and spawned ghost theories on Reddit. On the first photo, it looks like it was just an empty lawn and a full moon, while in the second picture, most of the people who have seen the photos say that it's somewhat showing the same scene only with a small, ghoulish figure appears running across the grass.

Another UFO Sighting Under A Spooky Full Moon Caught On Cam

In one of his statements reported by Daily Mail, the uploader, whose Reddit name is MeTarzanYouJane, has allegedly posted the two images on the website while asking other users to help him figure out what might have happened in the photo. While being unsure of what might be the image in the photo, the said Reddit user has assured the people that the photos are not edited and has even claimed that there were no smudges on the lens at the time when the photos were taken.

Furthermore, according to Daily Star, the uploader of the images have also explained that the mere fact that it produces a shadow makes him rule out the possibility of it being something like a smudge on the lens. It also is opaque all except for what he would suppose as a human face. While some remain skeptics about the said image, others can't help but to agree with the uploader. One user said that by basing it to the size and stature, they are on the paranormal spectrum. Ultimately, the uploader adds that the creature wasn't seen by the photographers, and only noticed when they later viewed the pictures.

Alien hunter demands 'scientific inquiry' after police helicopter captures UFO over Bristol Channel

Alien hunter demands 'scientific inquiry' after police helicopter captures UFO over Bristol Channel

Alien hunter demands 'scientific inquiry' after police helicopter captures UFO over Bristol Channel


An alien hunter has accused police of withholding facts about a suspected UFO sighting by a helicopter above the Bristol Channel.

Gary Heseltine, editor of UFO Truth magazine, has been investigating the sighting of the invisible object, which was capture by thermal cameras 1000ft over the Bristol Channel.

He has demanded a 'scientific inquiry' into the sighting in September 2016.

Read more: Bristol man claims to have spotted UFO on camera - can you see it in this video?

Footage shared on Twitter by the National Police Air Service shows an object which could not be seen with the naked eye, accompanied by the caption, 'Any suggestion??' and an alien emoji.

The UFO was filmed by a police helicopter 1000ft above the Bristol Channel

Some have suggested it could be a balloon or a Chinese lantern, but police have ruled out both ideas because of the heat and movement.

The mystery craft was said to be flying against the winds at the time and was said to be undetected by air traffic control.

Mr Heseltine said his investigation has included several Freedom of Information Requests to South Wales police to obtain flight maps and audio from the cockpit.

He said: "I've waited until now to see how much information I could obtain from the police via the FOI requests I've submitted. What I can say is that in my opinion the police have not been as open and transparent as they could have been."

He claims the case bears a resemblance to another case in Chile where a Navy helicopter captured a UFO on infra-red, the Mirror reports.

Gary added: "I believe this British case is a major UFO event and should be the subject of a scientific enquiry."

It is understood the footage was captured over Bristol on Saturday, September 17 2016, and shared online by NPAS St Athan, the National Police Air Service which is based in South Wales, more than a week later.

Rabbijn: “Sterrenexplosie in 2022 zal gepaard gaan met wederkomst van Jezus”

Rabbijn: "Sterrenexplosie in 2022 zal gepaard gaan met wederkomst van Jezus"

Rabbijn: “Sterrenexplosie in 2022 zal gepaard gaan met wederkomst van Jezus”

De dodelijke dans van dubbelster KIC 9832227 eindigt in 2022 met een enorme explosie. Beide sterren zullen dan op elkaar botsen en met elkaar versmelten.

Door de supernova die deze botsing tot gevolg heeft, zal de ster ongeveer 1000 keer helderder worden aan de nachtelijke hemel.

Astronomen van het Amerikaanse Calvin College voorspellen dat de explosie van de dubbelster in het sterrenbeeld Zwaan 1800 jaar geleden heeft plaatsgevonden en dat het licht ervan in 2022 de aarde bereikt.

Wederkomst

Vanaf onze planeet zal er dan een rode flits te zien zijn waarbij een nieuwe, massieve ster ontstaat.

“De kans om zo’n explosie te voorspellen is één op de miljoen,” aldus astronoom Larry Molnar. “Zoiets is nog nooit eerder gedaan.”

Rabbijn Yosef Berger claimt dat de explosie in 2022 gepaard zal gaan met de wederkomst van Jezus Christus, meldt de Daily Express.

Rambam

Rabbijn Berger wijst op een Bijbelse profetie die de verschijning van een nieuwe ster linkt aan de wederkomst:

Wat ik zie is niet in het heden, wat ik waarneem is niet nabij. Een ster komt op uit Jakob, een scepter uit Israël. Hij verbrijzelt Moab de slapen, de kinderen van Set slaat hij neer. (Numeri 24:17)

Berger citeerde ook de 12e-eeuwse rabbijn Maimonides, ook bekend als de Rambam, wiens filosofische werk tot op de dag van vandaag een grote invloed heeft op het joodse denken.

“Volgens de Rambam is dit vers over een ster die verschijnt bewijs dat Jezus op een dag zal komen,” zei Berger tegenover Breaking Israel News.

Kijken: Mysterieuze lichtzuilen verlichten avondhemel boven Canada

Fotograaf Timothy Joseph Elzinga zag op 6 januari dit adembenemende natuurverschijnsel vanuit het raam van zijn badkamer.

Eerst dacht hij dat het om het noorderlicht ging, maar het bleek om een ander fenomeen te gaan.

“De lichtstralen deden me denken aan Star Trek of Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” zei hij tegenover nieuwssite Mashable.

Spiegels

Door de vrieskou konden de lichtzuilen ontstaan die hij waarnam.

Door de lage temperatuur bevroren waterdeeltjes in de lucht zo snel dat ze niet opstegen om wolken te vormen of in sneeuw te veranderen.

Ze bleven als kleine spiegels in de lucht hangen waardoor ze licht konden reflecteren.

Schouwspel

De lichtzuilen worden meestal gezien in het poolgebied, maar ze kunnen ook voorkomen op lagere breedtegraden.

Elzinga woont in Ontario en zei dat de temperatuur in de nacht van 6 januari was gedaald tot -18 graden Celsius.

Hij legde het schouwspel vast met zijn Samsung Galaxy S6 en plaatste een filmpje op YouTube:

SpaceX Rocket Lands on a Droneship in First Mission Since August

Falcon 9 launch January 14

SpaceX Rocket Lands on a Droneship in First Mission Since August

Descending from the cloudless sky and touching down in a burst of flames and cloud of gas, the first-stage booster of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket landed safely on the droneship landing pad Just Read the Instructions (named for one of the starships in Iain M. Banks’ novel The Player of Games) today at just after 10 a.m. Pacific time. You could almost hear Elon Musk unclench his jaw. This successful mission was a much- needed win for the private spaceflight company, whose last launch ended before it began. In September of 2016, one of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rockets exploded on the launchpad during a routine pre-launch test. This was a serious setback for a company that’s been at the forefront of an industry effort to recover and reuse rockets instead of ditching them in the ocean, as had been the custom since the beginning of spaceflight. This landing today was the first successful one on Just Read the Instructions.

Today’s launch and landing weren’t just about getting to space and back, though. In addition to SpaceX’s ongoing attempts to recover and reuse their rockets, the mission of this launch was to deploy ten Iridium Communications satellites.

The mission was the first of seven scheduled launches, creating a satellite communication network that will cover the entire globe. The satellites’ successful deployment is important for SpaceX, especially in light of recent news that the company has suffered millions in financial losses since 2015. Today’s success bodes well for SpaceX, as the company has bet heavily on these satellite contracts.

In addition to launching other companies’ communications satellites, SpaceX plans to make its own internet-providing satellites a major source of revenue in the near future. According to financial documents obtained by The Wall Street Journal, the company projects that its internet business will eclipse its launch division in profitability, earning $30 billion in revenue by 2025, eventually helping to fund missions to Mars.

The live video was typically choppy, but here’s a clip of the landing:

Airbus Hopes to Test Autonomous Flying Car This Year

Airbus Hopes to Test Autonomous Flying Car This Year

Airbus has a big plan to conquer the skies with an array of vertical takeoff and landing machines (VTOL), starting as soon as this year with a prototype. The company wants to use its Vahana project to solve the problems of traffic congestion that plague major cities, with users booking trips using a smartphone app in a similar fashion to Uber.

“One hundred years ago, urban transport went underground, now we have the technological wherewithal to go above ground,” Airbus CEO Tom Enders at the DLD Conference in Munich. “We are in an experimentation phase, we take this development very seriously.”

He added that he expects a prototype to take to the skies this year, Reutersreported.

And beyond this year, Enders offered this prediction for 2031:

“We are thinking that in fifteen years, we can do 90-100 passengers with an electric or hybrid aircraft,” Enders said, noting that “this is not yet an intercontinental-range aircraft, this is not an A-380 or something like that, but it’s good progress.”

Airbus has previously expressed an interest in bringing a flying car to consumers by 2020, but it now seems to have made the project greater a priority. The Urban Air Mobility division, which is working on the project, was set up last year as a way to explore ambitious transportation concepts for the future.

“If we ignore these developments, we will be pushed out of important segments of the business,” Enders said.

The Airbus concept will use a four-rotor design for the VTOL capabilities, which are seen as useful in urban environments — they don’t require the same size spaces as traditional aircrafts.

The big hurdle remains autonomous technology. Manufacturers are only just beginning to work autonomous technology for land-based vehicles, and even then, automakers aren’t expected to hit the mainstream with self-driving cars for another few years, when more data is gathered that can help the vehicles navigate.

Despite this trajectory, Enders did observe that’s sort of backward. Flying should come first.

“Autonomous flying is easier than autonomous driving and I think more and more people realize that, never the less, I think it might be autonomous driving, or partially autonomous driving, is implemented first,” he said.

Airbus is not the only company that believes the way forward is VTOL transport. Uber released a white paper on its plan for flying car service late last year, explaining that the vehicles are ideal for longer journeys where traditional cars would have to tackle traffic in and out of the city.

And what did Uber project would be its Prius or Camry for the skies? The Airbus Vahana, of course.

How to (seriously) read a scientific paper

How to (seriously) read a scientific paper

highlighting text

Adam Ruben’s tongue-in-cheek column about the common difficulties and frustrations of reading a scientific paper broadly resonated among Science Careers readers. Many of you have come to us asking for more (and more serious) advice on how to make sense of the scientific literature, so we’ve asked a dozen scientists at different career stages and in a broad range of fields to tell us how they do it. Although it is clear that reading scientific papers becomes easier with experience, the stumbling blocks are real, and it is up to each scientist to identify and apply the techniques that work best for them. The responses have been edited for clarity and brevity.

Do you have your own tips or other questions you’d like answered? Leave them in the comments section.

How do you approach reading a paper?

I start by reading the abstract. Then, I skim the introduction and flip through the article to look at the figures. I try to identify the most prominent one or two figures, and I really make sure I understand what's going on in them. Then, I read the conclusion/summary. Only when I have done that will I go back into the technical details to clarify any questions I might have. 

- Jesse Shanahan, master's candidate in astronomy at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut

I first get a general idea by reading the abstract and conclusions. The conclusions help me understand if the goal summarized in the abstract has been reached, and if the described work can be of interest for my own study. I also always look at plots/figures, as they help me get a first impression of a paper. Then I usually read the entire article from beginning to end, going through the sections in the order they appear so that I can follow the flow of work that the authors want to communicate.

If you want to make it a productive exercise, you need to have a clear idea of which kind of information you need to get in the first place, and then focus on that aspect. It could be to compare your results with the ones presented by the authors, put your own analysis into context, or extend it using the newly published data. Citation lists can help you decide why the paper may be most relevant to you by giving you a first impression of how colleagues that do similar research as you do may have used the paper.

- Cecilia Tubiana, scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Göttingen, Germany

 

If I’m aiming to just get the main points, I’ll read the abstract, hop to the figures, and scan the discussion for important points. I think the figures are the most important part of the paper, because the abstract and body of the paper can be manipulated and shaped to tell a compelling story. Then anything I’m unclear about, I head to the methodology.

If I want to delve deeper into the paper, I typically read it in its entirety and then also read a few of the previous papers from that group or other articles on the same topic. If there is a reference after a statement that I find particularly interesting or controversial, I also look it up. Should I need more detail, I access any provided data repositories or supplemental information.

Then, if the authors' research is similar to my own, I see if their relevant data match our findings or if there are any inconsistencies. If there are, I think about what could be causing them. Additionally, I think about what would happen in our model if we used the same methods as they did and what we could learn from that. Sometimes, it is also important to pay attention to why the authors decided to conduct an experiment in a certain way. Did the authors use an obscure test instead of a routine assay, and why would they do this?

- Jeremy C. Borniger, doctoral candidate in neuroscience at Ohio State University, Columbus

 

I always start with title and abstract. That tells me whether or not it’s an article I’m interested in and whether I’ll actually be able to understand it—both scientifically and linguistically. I then read the introduction so that I can understand the question being framed, and jump right to the figures and tables so I can get a feel for the data. I then read the discussion to get an idea of how the paper fits into the general body of knowledge.

I pay attention to acknowledgement of limitations and proper inference of data. Some people stretch their claims more than others, and that can be a red flag for me. I also put on my epidemiologist hat so that I can try to make sure the study design is adequate to actually test the hypotheses being examined.

As I go deeper into the argument framing, figures, and discussion, I also think about which pieces are exciting and new, which ones are biologically or logically relevant, and which ones are most supported by the literature. I also consider which pieces fit with my pre-existing hypotheses and research questions.

- Kevin Boehnke, doctoral candidate in environmental health sciences at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

 

My reading strategy depends on the paper. Sometimes I start by skimming through to see how much might be relevant. If it is directly applicable to my current topic, I’ll read the paper closely, apart from the introduction that is probably already familiar. But I always try to figure out if there are particular places or figures that I need to pay close attention to, and then I go and read the related information in the results and discussion.

I also check if there are references that I may be interested in. Sometimes I am curious to see who in the field has—or more likely has not—been referenced, to see whether the authors are choosing to ignore certain aspects of the research. I often find that the supplementary figures actually offer the most curious and interesting results, especially if the results relate to parts of the field that the authors did not reference or if they are unclear or unhelpful to their interpretation of the overall story.

- Gary McDowell, postdoctoral fellow in developmental biology at Tufts University in  Medford, Massachusetts, and visiting scholar at Boston College

 

When reading papers, it helps me to have a writing task so that I am being an active reader instead of letting my eyes glaze over mountains of text only to forget everything I just read. So for example, when I read for background information, I will save informative sentences from each article about a specific topic in a Word document. I'll write comments along the way about new ideas I got or questions I need to explore further. Then, in the future, I’ll only need to read this document instead of re-reading all the individual papers. 

Likewise, when I want to figure out how to conduct a particular experiment, I create a handy table in Excel summarizing how a variety of research teams went about doing a particular experiment. 

- Lina A. Colucci, doctoral candidate at the Harvard-MIT Health Sciences and Technology program

 

I usually start with the abstract, which gives me a brief snapshot of what the study is all about. Then I read the entire article, leaving the methods to the end unless I can't make sense of the results or I'm unfamiliar with the experiments.

The results and methods sections allow you to pull apart a paper to ensure it stands up to scientific rigor. Always think about the type of experiments performed, and whether these are the most appropriate to address the question proposed. Ensure that the authors have included relevant and sufficient numbers of controls. Often, conclusions can also be based on a limited number of samples, which limits their significance.

I like to print out the paper and highlight the most relevant information, so on a quick rescan I can be reminded of the major points. Most relevant points would be things that change your thinking about your research topic or give you new ideas and directions. 

- Lachlan Gray, deputy head of the HIV Neuropathogenesis Lab at the Burnet Institute and adjunct research fellow in the Department of Infectious Disease at Monash University inMelbourne, Australia

 

What I choose to read is based on relation to my research areas and things that are generating lots of interest and discussion because they are driving the way we do psychology, or science more widely, in new directions. Most often, what I am trying to get out of the papers is issues of methodology, experimental design, and statistical analysis. And so for me, the most important section is first what the authors did (methods) and second what they found (results). 

It can also be interesting to understand why the authors thought they were doing the study (introduction) and what they think the results mean (discussion). When it is an area that I know a lot about, I don't usually care much about these sections because they often reflect the authors' theoretical predilections and one of many ways to think about the method and results. But when it is an area that I know very little about, I read these closely because then I learn a lot about the assumptions and explanatory approaches in that area of research.

- Brian Nosek, professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Virginia and executive director of the Center for Open Science in Charlottesville

 

First I read very fast: The point of the first reading is simply to see whether the paper is interesting for me. If it is I read it a second time, slower and with more attention to detail.

If the paper is vital to my research—and if it is theoretical—I would reinvent the paper. In such cases, I only take the starting point and then work out everything else on my own, not looking into the paper. Sometimes this is a painfully slow process. Sometimes I get angry about the authors not writing clearly enough, omitting essential points and dwelling on superfluous nonsense. Sometimes I am electrified by a paper.

- Ulf Leonhardt, professor of physics at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel

 

I nearly always read the abstract first and only continue on to the paper if the abstract indicates that the paper will be of value to me. Then, if the topic of the paper is one I know well, I generally skim the introduction, reading its last paragraph to make sure I know the specific question being addressed in the paper. Then I look at the figures and tables, either read or skim the results, and lastly skim or read the discussion.

If the topic is not one I know well, I usually read the introduction much more carefully so that the study is placed into context for me. Then I skim the figures and tables and read the results.

- Charles W. Fox, professor in the Department of Entomology at the University of Kentucky in Lexington

 

It is important to realize that shortcuts have to be taken when reading papers so that there is time left to get our other work done, including writing, conducting research, attending meetings, teaching, and grading papers. Starting as a Ph.D. student, I have been reading the conclusions and methods of academic journal articles and chapters rather than entire books.

- Rima Wilkes, professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver

 

As editor-in-chief of Science, I have to read and comprehend papers outside of my field all the time. Generally, I start with the corresponding editors’ summaries, which are meant for someone like me: a science generalist who is interested in everything but dives deeply only into one field. Next, I check to see if someone wrote a News article on the paper. Third, I check to see if there is a Perspective by another scientist. The main goal of a Perspective is to broaden the message of the paper, but often the authors do a great job of extracting the essence of the article for non-specialists at the same time.

Then I tackle the abstract, which has been written to broadly communicate to the readership of the journal. Finally, I move on to the paper itself, reading, in order, the intro, conclusions, scanning the figures, and then reading the paper through.

- Marcia K. McNutt, Editor-in-Chief, Science journals 

                                                                       

What do you do when there is something you don’t understand?

I like to read online so that I can easily cut and paste words I don’t know into a browser to check what they mean.

- McNutt

 

If it's only a few things in the article, I'll make a note to look them up later. If I am really struggling to proceed through the paper, I try to look up a review article or a textbook chapter to give me the necessary background to proceed, which I generally find much more efficient.

There are a lot of acronyms and jargon that can be subfield-specific, so I usually don't wade through the details unless it's for my own research. But I always try to take my time to really understand the methods being used.

- Shanahan

 

I will typically pause immediately to look up things I don’t understand. The rest of the reading may not make sense if I don’t understand a key phrase or jargon. This can backfire a bit, though, as I often go down never-ending rabbit holes after looking something up (What is X? Oh, X influences Y. … So what’s Y? etc…). This can be sort of fun as you learn how everything is connected, but if you’re crunched for time this can pull your attention away from the task at hand.

Sometimes, all the jargon in a paper can cloud the whole point of the experiments in the first place. In such cases, it helps to ask yourself, “What question were the authors trying to answer?” Then you can determine whether they succeeded or failed.  

- Borniger

 

It depends on how much the non-understandable bits prevent me from following the main ideas. I usually do not try to understand all the details in all the sections the first time I read a paper. If non-understandable parts appear important for my research, I try to ask colleagues or even contact the lead author directly. Going back to the original references to get all the background information is the last resort, because time can be limited and collaborations and personal contacts can be much more efficient in solving specific problems.

Sometimes, you can just read through a paper and any terms you're not familiar with will become clearer by the end. If it is very heavy going, then stopping and seeking additional information is usually the way to go. I do a quick Google search on the topic, theme, method, jargon, etc. If it is a very dense article, sometimes it will require a few read-throughs before it all starts to make sense.

- Gray

 

The question I ask myself is, “Do I need to understand what that means in order to get what I need from this paper?” I now read articles in research areas well outside of my expertise, and I often don't need more than superficial knowledge of the substantive content. If I can't do anything with the paper unless I don't understand that depth, then I do more background research.

- Nosek

 

Lately, I have had to read a number of papers outside my area of expertise with a lot of unfamiliar jargon. In some cases, I am able to directly extract the information I need from the results or figures and tables. In other cases, I use Google searches to define terms and concepts in the paper or read the cited references to better understand the points being made. Occasionally, papers are so incomprehensible (to me, at least) that I don't bother reading them.

- Fox

 

Do you ever feel overwhelmed reading papers, and how do you deal with that?

All the time. If the paper is relevant to a problem I am trying to solve, you can be sure that there are key things in the paper that I do not understand. That confusion is not a threat; it is an opportunity. I am ignorant; I need to become less ignorant. This paper may help me.

Simultaneously, some papers are written terribly and are not worth the effort. Someone else has surely written about the concepts more clearly so that I can keep my confusion focused on understanding substance rather than poor grammar.

- Nosek

 

I especially get overwhelmed if it's not in my subfield, if it's long, and if it's full of technical jargon. When this happens, I break it down into chunks and will read it over the course of a few days, if possible. For really difficult papers, it also helps to sit down and work through it with a colleague.

- Shanahan

 

Yes, many times. This is why I developed my own reading strategies, by talking to other scientists and by trial and error. I also have thrown up my hands in frustration and tossed the offending papers away, never to read them again.

- Boehnke

 

Yes, and in these cases you have to realize that some papers are the result of years of work by dozens of scientists. Expecting to digest and understand everything in it in one afternoon is a far-fetched idea.

- Borniger

 

I have often felt overwhelmed! But certain sections might not need as deep an understanding as others. You also need to know your own limits: Are there some parts of the paper that you would like to emulate but are not part of your expertise and might become “accessible” through collaborations?

- Tubiana

 

If I feel the paper is very important to what I’m doing, I’ll leave it a while and go back to it again a couple of times. But if it’s too overwhelming, then I have to leave it aside, unless someone among the colleagues I have contacted has been able to interpret it.

- McDowell

 

Do you have any other tips you’d like to share?

If there is a seminal paper I want to thoroughly understand, I find some way to give a journal club-style presentation about it. Speaking about a particular paper and answering questions is the best way for me to learn the material. 

Also, get a good reference manager. Mendeley helps me do my research, read literature, and write papers. 

- Colucci

 

At the beginning, new academic readers find it slow because they have no frame of reference for what they are reading. But there are ways to use reading as a system of creating a mental library, and after a few years, it becomes easy to slot papers onto your mental shelves. Then you can quickly skim a paper to know its contribution.

- Wilkes

 

Be patient. Don’t be afraid or ashamed to use Wikipedia or other, more lay-audience sources like blog posts to get a feel for your topic. Ask many, many questions. If you can’t get a clear understanding of the paper, talk with people in your circle. If you are still confused and it's really important to understand the concepts, email the authors.

- Boehnke

 

Don’t hesitate to talk to more experienced scientists. You will be doing THEM a favor by having them explain to you in terms you understand what a complex paper means. All scientists need more experience translating complex concepts into common terms.

- McNutt

 

If at all possible, read often. Try to keep a bibliography file with a summary of the article, any important points, even a figure or two, along with citation information. Pay attention to different ways of structuring an article, and pay attention to different styles of writing. This will help you develop a style that is effective and also unique.

ROSWELL UFO CRASH - FIRST HAND WITNESS TESTIMONY - ONE ALIEN WAS ALIVE!

ROSWELL UFO CRASH - FIRST HAND WITNESS TESTIMONY - ONE ALIEN WAS ALIVE!

700_ab746ddfccaa6ee5ba774dc4551684cf.jpg?v=1484643978

This is Gerald Anderson's story of the Roswell UFO crash. He was interviewed by famous UFO researcher Stanton Friedman (the same researcher who first obtained Major Jesse A. Marcel’s testimony about the Roswell incident. 

During this interview, Gerald Anderson tells of him as a young boy of walking up on a crashed UFO complete with its crew of 4 and with one alien creature still alive. µ

THE ROSWELL INCIDENT WAS, IN FACT, A CRASHED UFO

Anderson was out rock hunting with some family members on the Plains of St. Augustine near Socorro on the July 1947 morning that this event took place.

His testimony was polygraph proved, which proves that the UFO phenomenon is real and the Roswell Incident was, in fact, a crashed UFO.

When they were out rock hunting, they discovered a silver disk. There were three creatures, three bodies, lying on the ground underneath this thing in the shade. Two weren't moving, and the third one obviously was having trouble breathing. There was a fourth one next to it, sitting there on the ground. There wasn't a thing wrong with it, and it apparently had been giving first aid to the others.

After a couple of minutes, Anderson investigated the UFO and the alien that was still alive turned and looked at him. Anderson had the feeling the creature was inside of his mind. He could hear his thoughts.

A group of armed soldiers suddenly appeared. The extraterrestrial creature, which had calmed down after its initial fright, "went crazy" at the sight of the soldiers. Thinking back on the creature's plight today brings on the "most awful, horrible feeling," Anderson says.

"His situation was hopeless. He was aware of it. He'd just lived through a nightmare that most of us wouldn't be able to psychologically stand. He'd watched two of his crew die. He knew there's no chance of rescue because our military is here and his people aren't going to be able to get him.

"As a kid, I was aware of what being afraid of the dark was like., and the feeling I got from him at the moment was that feeling multiplied a million times. It was really scary. It was terrifying.

UFOs are a common thing in the skye of Mexico and have been since ancient times. The live cam feed only gives us one photo every 20-30 seconds, but still thats helpful. Here we have a UFO thats very big, about the size of a 727 compared with the width of the mouth of the volcano. When you add light to it, the UFO does take a fat disk shape to it. There are no wings, no strings, no jet trail and its gone in the next photo 20 sec later. It is probably heading from or to the mouth of the volcano.

UFO sighting in 1897 excites Tippecanoe County

UFO sighting in 1897 excites Tippecanoe County

Bob Kriebel, For the Journal & Courier

You want a famous date in Lafayette history? How about April 12, 1897?

That's when our newspaper ancestor, the Lafayette Evening Courier, told its first UFO story.

It went like this:

"Nearly every town in this part of the United States claims to have seen the phantom airship, the 'Flying Dutchman' of the midnight air. ... Some strange object is being seen in the air (with) funny little lights, red, white and green, (that) flit about ..."

This led the Courier's rival, the Morning Journal, to report in early May 1897 that "a well-known young man told of seeing a cigar-shaped flying ship with lights and two men aboard. It landed in a meadow on a dark road between Stockwell and Crane Station while the man was bicycling about 9 p.m."

This eyewitness said he had been "wheeling" (bicycling), presumably on country roads now numbered 560 South, 900 South, 500 East, 525 East, 700 South and Stockwell Road, near today's Woodland Elementary School.

The "well-known young man" (call him WKYM) continued:

"It was dark, I was alone and moving. ... All at once there was a loud, hissing noise similar to the escape of steam from a locomotive. ... My hat was almost lifted from my head by the wind of an object passing over my head. I threw my hands up to catch my hat. My wheel struck a rock or something and I fell on my back on the road.

"Only a few yards away in a small meadow I saw the strangest object that any mortal has ever seen.

"It looked like a perfecto-shaped cigar about 20 feet long and perhaps 8 feet in diameter at the biggest point. A box or car was suspended from the cigar-shaped arrangement by a network of tubular wires. The cigar-shaped affair was pointed toward me. From the end there flashed a large light. It was a scintillating blaze and different colors came and went with startling rapidity.

"Two men were standing on the ground by the side of the strange object and seemed to be busy with several of the wires. I heard one say, 'I wonder where we are?' He spoke with a foreign accent and I thought at the time he was some French scientist. His companion replied in excellent English, and I supposed he was an American."

When WKYM decided to overcome his fright and make friends with the strangers, he told the Journal: "The men saw me. Lights flashed from both ends of the cigar-shaped arrangement. In another instant it rose like a thing of life and was many hundred feet high in the time it takes to tell it."

But the Courier created its own credibility gap when it quoted WKYM as having said: "I picked up my wheel, took a small pull at an amber-colored fluid I had purchased at Lebanon, and pedaled for home as fast as I could."

About this series

Each week, the Journal & Courier is reprinting some of the best of Bob Kriebel's Old Lafayette columns. Today is a look at an 1897 reported UFO sighting in Tippecanoe County. This is taken from a column published April 12, 2009.

BLOGS Triangle UFOs Over New York State

Triangle UFOs Over New York State

skies

Columnist Cheryl costa discusses triangle-shaped UFO sightings in New York state.

They are big, black and triangular in shape. They’ve been reported to be 75-100 feet long and 45-60 feet wide. Some witnesses suggest that they are two stories high. These are triangle UFOs over New York state.

Many people think the triangle UFOs are strictly occurrences reported in the 20th and 21st centuries. Yet in Charles Fort’s 1919 work The Book of the Damned, there are accounts of triangle sightings from various far-flung parts of the world from the early as 1880s. The earliest-known sighting in New York state dates from June of 1962 in Bethpage in New York’s Nassau County.

Triangle UFOs rank fifth among the most commonly reported UFO shapes. Nationally, triangle UFOs are 9.14 percent of the total triangle sightings of about 11,000, from 2001 through 2015. California ranks first with 1,454 reported triangle sightings or about 13 percent of the national sightings.

New York state ranks sixth for triangle sighting reports, about 3.74 percent, with 414 from 2001 to 2015. New Yorkers have reported as little as 12 triangles in 2005 and 42 in 2014, with an average of about 27 per year.

triangles-new-york-1-12-2016

The map above shows New York state’s top 14 counties for triangle sightings. These 14 counties represent 62 percent of New York’s triangle sightings from 2001-2015.

Austin Backyard Becomes a Haven for UFO Searchers

Austin Backyard Becomes a Haven for UFO Searchers

Reporting Texas

Members from the Austin Skywatchers observed the starry sky and waited to catch some UFOs at a private helipad on a Friday night in Southwest Austin.

On a breezy fall evening in Southwest Austin, a group gathered around a stone circle in a backyard as dusk fell.

Yvonne Self, a spiritual counselor who founded Austin Skywatchers in 2014, welcomed new members as they prepared to search the sky for UFOs.

The organization brings together people who say they have interacted with beings from outer space. According to the group’s MeetUp profile page, over the past few years, it has attracted more than 200 “first-contact ambassadors” to facilitate interaction with extraterrestrial civilizations.

The members meet fortnightly to share their UFO experiences and to practice meditation while they observe the night sky.

The idea that we may not be alone in the universe, and a fascination with outer space, dates back centuries. The belief in UFOs persists, despite the absence of scientific evidence.

“It’s not impossible that you could have visitors from outer space to the Earth. But if you are going to claim that’s true, you should present some good evidence,” said Peter Shostak, senior astronomer for the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California, which conducts exploratory research into the possibility of intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, among other astronomy topics. “It’s like ghosts. People report ghosts, and I am sure that you can find tens of thousands of reported cases every year.”

His organization — the acronym stands for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence — is among the professional scientific groups that look for evidence that other parts of the universe may have had conditions that could support life, such as water. Several large radio telescopes, including one in Puerto Rico associated with the National Science Foundation, search for signals that could indicate intelligent life in the great beyond.

Self and other UFO enthusiasts say they have the evidence they need, and that others would believe them if they only saw the research, which they think the government suppresses.

“All of you are here because even though you may not be aware of it at the moment, you are very likely interacting with them (aliens) now and assisting them as well to establish the first contact,” Self told the group in October.

Self said she has been interacting with what she calls “off-world beings” since she was a toddler, and that it’s time to embrace them “in a more open and physical way.”

“We’ve come to a time as a species where we are moving away from being planetary-centric beings, and moving towards becoming galactic beings,” said Self.

She established the group to provide people a platform to share their UFO sighting experiences and to prepare themselves for further contact with beings from outer space. She believes that can be achieved through meditation and feeling the connection deepens with these beings.

As the sky darkened that fall evening, the group switched into a meditative pose. A mellow-sounding meditation guide played on Self’s laptop as she instructed the group to close their eyes and focus their attention inwards.

After a 15-minute session, the group walked to a private helipad nearby. Carrying lawn chairs, blankets and binoculars, they were ready for the UFO-gazing experience. They keenly watched every blinking object in the sky.

“Don’t flash at it!” someone shouted, when one man aimed a laser to pinpoint at a flying object.

“It’s a great bunch of folks,” said Emin Navarro, 64, an Austin-based guitarist and Army retiree. “Everyone accepts what is being said and stays positive about the possibilities.”

Navarro joined the group two years ago after he said he spotted a UFO shaped like a Chinese box kite in Dallas. However, he seldom talks about his experience with his family or friends because he thinks they will belittle his encounter.

“People are not very accepting of the unusual,” he said.

Robert Powell is director of research and field investigator in Texas for the Mutual UFO Network. or MUFON, based in Newport Beach, California, investigates UFO sightings and has a weekly “traffic report” digital radio show.

“If you meet a friend in a coffee shop, he might want to talk with you about his UFO experience,” said Powell. “But if you met him in a classroom and the teacher asked if anyone had a UFO experience, he would probably not raise his hand.”

While there has been stigma and mystery surrounding UFOs, on a national level, more than 90,000 UFO sighting cases have been curated at the National UFO Reporting Center, a Seattle-based organization. Texas is one of the top states for UFO reports, according to the organization’s website.

UFO enthusiasts have different opinions about why the topic has been marginalized. Some claim that it is a government conspiracy, while others believe it has to do with the belief system.

“We’ve built our society over the last 2,000 years on certain beliefs to come to what we have today,” said Ken Jordan, director of MUFON’s San Antonio Chapter. “It took us a while to accept that we are not the center of the universe, and we’ll get used to the fact that we are not the only ones in the universe eventually. In many major religions, there is still a stigma attached to the fact that somebody else might be out there.”

During her campaign, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said in a radio interview that she would open government files on the subject of UFOs and Area 51, a restricted part of Edwards Air Force Base in Nevada that has been the topic of numerous conspiracy theories. Clinton’s statement led some UFO enthusiasts to declare her the “ET candidate.”

Jordan wasn’t buying it. “She is a member of the secret organization that is committed to keeping information quiet,” he said.

Diana McManus, 65, one of the original members of Austin Skywatchers, said she became a believer after seeing something hovering over her backyard in Austin three years ago.

“I was trying to meditate and I thought to myself, ‘If you are really out there, then show me’,” said McManus.

When she looked up, McManus suddenly saw a white ball of light, half the size of the moon, darting across the sky and then disappearing.

“I was amazed,” said McManus. “I feel that they must have heard me.”

VIDEO: “ISS-astronauten verbergen bewijs voor mysterieuze lichten bij ruimtestation”

VIDEO: "ISS-astronauten verbergen bewijs voor mysterieuze lichten bij ruimtestation"

VIDEO: “ISS-astronauten verbergen bewijs voor mysterieuze lichten bij ruimtestation”

Alien-jagers claimen dat astronauten aan boord van het internationale ruimtestation ISS doelbewust bewijs voor UFO’s verbergen. Dat schrijft de Britse Daily Mirror.

In een video op YouTube is een astronaut van het ISS te zien met op de achtergrond de aarde.

Op het moment dat in de verte mysterieuze lichten in beeld verschijnen, doet de astronaut zijn hand voor de camera.

Liegt

Hetzelfde gebeurt in een ander fragment waarin een oplichtend object voor de aarde langs zoeft. Opnieuw wordt het beeld afgedekt door een witte handschoen.

Complottheoretici zien hier bewijs in dat we niet alleen zijn in het heelal en dat de overheid tegen ons liegt.

“Dit zijn indrukwekkende beelden,” zei iemand. “Ik heb zoiets nog nooit gezien. Hoe kan iemand dit debunken?”

Onverklaarbaar object

Afgelopen maand werd nog een UFO vastgelegd boven het centrum van de stad Sheffield.

Daarnaast heeft de Chileense overheid opmerkelijke videobeelden vrijgegeven van een onverklaarbaar object.

De UFO werd eind 2014 bij daglicht gespot door de bemanning van een legerhelikopter die boven zee vloog.

DE GEHEIME WERELD VAN UFO'S EN ONDERGRONDSE BASES ( VIDEO )

DE GEHEIME WERELD VAN  UFO'S EN ONDERGRONDSE BASES (  VIDEO )

dumbs.jpg

Er zijn verschillende werelden op de planeet waarop wij leven. 

Er is de “normale” wereld die voor iedereen zichtbaar is en er is de verborgen, geheime en vaak ondergrondse wereld waar zich dingen afspelen die onze stoutste dromen overtreffen.



Zo is ondertussen bekend dat er voor, tijdens en direct na de Tweede Wereldoorlog een deel van de Duitse wetenschapswereld met hun kennis is vertrokken naar Antarctica, waar ze tot op de dag van vandaag nog de nodige bases hebben. 

Niet alleen in Antarctica zijn ze zeer actief, ook in Zuid Amerika en dan met name in Brazilië. In dat land wordt volgens sommige onderzoekers een versie gebouwd van de zogenaamde retro vliegende schotel, dat wil zeggen een soort schijf met platte onderkant. 

In de volgende video wat ouderwetse polaroid foto’s van de Duitse basis in Brazilië. 

 

Iemand die zich bezighoudt met onderzoek naar geheime (ondergrondse) basis is Dr. Richard Sauder. Hij heeft hierover een boek geschreven met de titel “Hidden in plain sight”, wat zoveel betekent als “verborgen in het volle zicht”. 

Jarenlang heeft Sauder door vrijgegeven overheidsdocumenten gespit en met vroegere insiders gesproken over hun kennis van alle verborgen installaties en bases. Van de dingen die Dr. Sauder heeft ontdekt, val je van je stoel. 

Er is een complete ondergrondse wereld, bestaande uit een enorme experimenteel wetenschappelijke en militaire infrastructuur. Een wereld die specifiek is ontworpen voor geheime operaties. 

Met overheidsinstanties die aan niemand (publiekelijk) verantwoording afleggen, onbeperkte begrotingen en zonder media-aandacht bestaan deze enorme complexen compleet in het geheim. 

Het begon allemaal weer met de Nazi’s die al de gewoonte hadden om hun geheime militaire industriële bases onder de grond te bouwen. Van daaruit zijn we tegenwoordig terechtgekomen bij de DUMBS (Deep Underground Military Bases). 

Volgens Sauder hebben de zogenaamde schaduwregering die hij noemt de US National Security State, enorme wat men noemt Black Budgets tot hun beschikking. Geld dat zo zwart is als de nacht en helemaal nergens voor komt in de officiële boeken van de overheid. 

Met al dat geld hebben ze een enorme ondergrondse infrastructuur opgezet met commando- en controle centra die, zoals ze zeggen, nodig zullen zijn voor het overleven van de mensheid in een eventueel rampscenario en om te zorgen dat de overheid kan blijven functioneren, de zogenaamde Continuity of Government (COG) in geval van een nucleaire oorlog. 

Naast deze mainstream verklaring voor alle ondergrondse activiteiten is er ook nog de verborgen agenda van het ontwerpen, testen en ontwikkelen van UFO’s, net zoals de Duitsers dat doen op Antarctica en in Brazilië. 

De benodigde toegang tot dit soort faciliteiten vereist een nog hogere classificatie dan die van de mensen die werken aan nucleaire zaken. 

Hieruit concludeert Sauder dat men er alles aan zal doen om de verkregen geheimen van UFO-technologie voor zich te houden en te zorgen dat deze niet onder ogen van onbevoegden komen. 

Bovenstaande en nog veel meer komt aan de orde in het hiernavolgende interview dat Dark Journalist Daniel Liszt had met Dr. Richard Sauder.

We Can Learn a Lot From the Changing Night Sky

This article was originally published at The Conversation. The publication contributed the article to Space.com's Expert Voices: Op-Ed & Insights.

You cannot feel or hear the world turning. It does not rumble through space. But you can see it turn with your own eyes every day and night. And, with patience, you can see Earth travel around the Sun.

As the globe turns and night falls, stars appear to travel from east to west across the night sky. Or do they?

How stars move across the sky is a touch more complicated than you may first imagine. And the motion of the stars tells us about our place on the world and our travels around the Sun.

We live on a spinning globe, and as we turn different swathes of the universe come into view. However, what you see depends on where you are.

Almost directly above the North Pole is the star Polaris. As the world turns on its axis, Polaris remains above the North Pole. If you had the misfortune of being at the North Pole in midwinter, Polaris would be a constant companion overhead.

Imagine an alien looking down from Polaris at Earth. What would they see? They would see Earth’s Northern Hemisphere, spinning anticlockwise around the North Pole. A Polarisian would never see Earth’s Southern Hemisphere, with its red Australian deserts and frozen Antarctic wastes.

Who can see Polaris from Earth? People across the Northern Hemisphere can see Polaris, and it never rises nor sets.

However, while Polaris is high in the sky when viewed from inside the Arctic circle, as you move towards the Equator, Polaris gets closer and closer to the northern horizon. If you travel into the Southern Hemisphere, Polaris falls below the northern horizon, and never rises at all.

So which stars you see and how high they get in the sky depends on where you are. Indeed, navigators have used the stars for centuries to determine how far they are from the Equator.

In the Northern Hemisphere, Polaris allows you to find north. Unfortunately, people in the Southern Hemisphere are not blessed with a bright star above the South Pole, making navigating by the stars a tad trickier.

Of course some stars do rise and set. The stars in the constellation Orion, the hunter, are almost directly above the Equator. From almost anywhere on Earth, the stars of Orion rise and then set roughly 12 hours later.

Orion-Constellation-Feb26-7pm-et.jpg?1456458110?interpolation=lanczos-none&downsize=*:1400
Use the stargazing app on your mobile device to spot the constellation Orion, The Hunter. His famous three-star belt is well placed due south in the evening. Your app should show you the bright reddish star Betelgeuse at his eastern shoulder, the bright-blue star Rigel at his western foot and the beautiful Orion Nebula, also known as Messier 42, in the sword hanging below his belt.

However, our view of Orion depends on where we are. If you are in London, and looking at Orion when he's highest in the night sky, then you see Orion towards the south (because Orion is directly above the Equator). Orion's feet are sensibly pointing towards the southern horizon.

If you are in Melbourne and looking at Orion when he's highest in the night sky, then you see Orion towards the north. Now Orion has his head pointing towards the northern horizon, with his feet in the air.

I actually prefer the fun-loving breakdancing Orion of the Southern Hemisphere to the more staid Orion seen from the Northern Hemisphere.

Our view of constellations can also change throughout the night. The Southern Cross isn't directly above the South Pole, instead being 60 degrees above the South Pole's horizon at all times. From southern Australia, the Southern Cross is above the horizon all the time, moving clockwise in a giant circle every day.

On a summer's evening in Melbourne (or Wellington, or Patagonia), the Southern Cross starts near the southern horizon and is "upside down" (at least compared to the Australian Flag). But by morning twilight it has risen high in the sky and is (roughly) the right way around. Of course, the "motion" of the Southern Cross isn’t caused by the constellation moving, but by us being spun around on a turning world.

A time lapse taken at La Silla Observatory in Chile, showing stars moving clockwise above the southern horizon.

The world isn't just turning on its axis, but also orbiting the Sun. This means we see different stars during the middle of the night at different times of year.

During early January, the Sun is in the direction of the constellation of Sagittarius, while Gemini is visible at midnight.

Six months later, the Earth has moved 180 degress around the Sun. Now the Sun is in the direction of Gemini, while Sagittarius is visible at midnight. The stars and planets we see change as the months go by.

More critically, the seasons and length of day change as we move around the Sun. Earth's axis is tilted with respect to its orbit. Between late September and late March our Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, while the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun for the remainder of the year.

Between late September and late March, the Sun is directly above the tropics of Earth's Southern Hemisphere. Across the Southern Hemisphere, daylight extends beyond 12 hours per day. Indeed, at the South Pole the Sun is above the horizon 24 hours a day. In January, the Southern Hemisphere is basking in summer.

Between late September and late March, the opposite is true in the Northern Hemisphere. Across the Northern Hemisphere, the Sun is relatively low in the sky and daylight is less than 12 hours per day. In January, the Northern Hemisphere is in the depths of winter.

We may not feel the globe spinning and our motion around the Sun, but we can experience it. We spin beneath the stars each night, and as the months pass different stars come into view. Which stars we see changes as we move across the world. And the changing length of the days and seasons are driven by our orbit around the Sun.

The daylight side of the Earth over an entire year. For months at a time, the North or South Pole experiences sunshine 24 hours a day.

Sky-high spectacular: The BEST places in the world to see the Northern Lights

Sky-high spectacular: The BEST places in the world to see the Northern Lights

THE NORTHERN lights are one of nature’s greatest displays - a mysterious, colourful show that lights up the night sky.

The BEST places in the world to see the Northern Lights

These auroras occur near the magnetic poles of the earth - so the closer you can get to the poles, the more chance you will have to see them.

They appear when solar wind particles collide with air molecules in the earth’s atmosphere.

When this happens their energy is transferred into light, which is known as the aurora borealis or Northern Lights.

The best time to see the nature’s greatest show is under clear, dark skies between the months of September to April.

According to Discover the World, no month guarantees better sightings, but December to February have the longest hours of darkness whilst in the spring or autumn, the weather conditions are more stable.

One of the best places to see the northern lights, especially for Brits, are countries around the North Pole.

Iceland in the winter is known for the stunning auroras and is one of the most convenient and affordable destinations to visit from the UK.

Sweden is another country where the captivating show is best seen. In particular, the Swedish Lapland where visitors can enjoy a unique experience of staying in an ice hotel whilst watching the northern lights.

The Finnish Lapland is also a popular destination for seeing the auroras.

A stunning white snowy background is set against the showstopper lights, making Finland the ideal spot for snowmobiling, reindeer safaris or sitting in a sauna whilst enjoying the view.

Northern Norway offers dramatic northern light scenes thanks to the wide open spaces and minimal light pollution.

Visitors wanting to experience a polar night should head to Spitsbergen and those just wanting to explore vast open skies should go to North Cape.

The northern provinces of Canada extend deep into the Arctic Circle, making for some fantastic locations to see the northern lights.

Discover the World recommends the town of Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory as the ideal spot as it allows visitors to combine a host of winter activities in the picturesque snowy scenes.

Alaska - most people see it as the place to go for a winter adventure, but it is also one of the greatest places to the auroras. Dalton Highway is the most popular, where visitors can set up camp right beneath the auroral oval.

Greenland has some beautiful spots to view the lights. It is difficult to get to during the winter months but East Greenland during September or between March and April offers some exciting shows in the sky.

Astronauts HIDING aliens on ISS? NASA cover-up claims as spaceman covers lights on stream

Astronauts HIDING aliens on ISS? NASA cover-up claims as spaceman covers lights on stream

A GROUP of UFO hunters have made the bizarre claim that astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) are hiding aliens.

Are astronauts on board the international Space hiding aliens in a massive cover up?

The claims were made after UFO aficionados Secure 10 uploaded video of an astronaut filming the view near the ISS.

The video clearly shows earth in the background before glowing lights suddenly appear.

But conspiracy theorists claim that a cover-up took place because the astronaut quickly uses his hand to hide the lights.

RELATED ARTICLES

It is also claimed that the spaceman tried to use his hand to hide another light that was seen flashing across the earth.

One commentator wrote: “These are some incredible clips, I've never seen any of them.

“How could anyone possibly debunk these?”

The claims were made after the UFO hunters spotted strange flashing lights in a video

Another conspiracy theorist said: "I bet aliens are actually truthful to their people that we 'aliens' do exist while our government lies to us.”

However, Nasa has previously addressed what causes these kinds of lights.

A Nasa spokesperson said: “Reflections from station windows, the spacecraft structure itself or lights from Earth commonly appear as artefacts in photos and videos from the orbiting laboratory.

“Alien' objects near the ISS appears to be a favourite topic among conspiracy theorists who often scour Nasa feeds to find what they believe to be evidence of ET.”

GoPro Camera Snaps Up UFO Near ISS: Are Aliens Watching Us?

GoPro Camera Snaps Up UFO Near ISS: Are Aliens Watching Us?

By Amy Gordon Tech Times

ufo.jpg

UFO hunters have spotted a new video footage that supposedly shows off aliens intervening and maneuvering humans from their spacecrafts. The UFO was near the ISS and was captured by a GoPro Camera.  

( Acid Pix | Flickr )

UFO hunters are claiming that aliens are monitoring humans on the International Space Station (ISS). Researchers have drawn this conclusion after rare objects were spotted via an astronaut's live camera.

The video which exposes technologically advanced alien species observing ISS in low Earth orbit has gone viral.

"This amazing footage was shot from an astronaut's GoPro while outside the space station this week. The GoPro was hooked up directly with the live Internet link for all to see," shared Scott C. Waring, a well-known UFO blogger.

According to the ET chasers, the footage was taken using a GoPro camera which was mounted outside the ISS. It is here that the alien spacecraft is seen taking an incredible 180-degree turn while flying close to the center.

Revelations By UFO Hunters

An astronaut who was out on a space odyssey captured the video by using a GoPro Camera. The GoPro Camera houses some of the finest features in terms of visual display and audio coverage. The advanced video stabilization lets one capture rare moments like these in the best way possible.

The footage was uploaded by Just Gaz on YouTube on Jan. 5, 2017. Once uploaded, the video became quite popular as it attracted the attention of viewers. However, whether the video is authentic is circumspect.

This is not the first time that UFO hunters have chanced across a mysterious alien intervention close to or having some connect with the ISS.

In July 2016, Tech Times reported that NASA had intentionally cut ISS video feeds as a mysterious object - a UFO - was spotted descending from Space.

In November 2015, an ISS astronaut posted a phot on Twitter which showed off a UFO-like object, spurning UFO hunters into action that it evidenced alien life.

Rumors And Speculations

Skeptics have debunked the claims made by UFO hunters and deem the video farcical. The video footage in their opinion is a mere reflection of light on camera lenses, such as lights from earth, meteors in space or possibly even man-made junk.  Some are of the belief that the video is not of aliens but simply debris.

UFO hunters, however, dismiss any such allegations.  They believe there is ET life and humans are being watched. They feel it is their duty, as well as that of the government, to not keep people in the dark about these facts.

They stress that humans are not alone in the universe and that the solar system is teeming with ET's who are busy conducting explorations in their advanced spacecrafts. Skeptics, on the other hand, maintain that the footage is inaccurate and merely an image glitch.

Opinions are divided but you can judge for yourself by checking out the video below.

For the First Time, We Can Watch Storms on the Sun in Real Time

For the First Time, We Can Watch Storms on the Sun in Real Time

Zon.jpg

[Foto: NASA]

IN BRIEF
  • Scientists used a device called multi-conjugate adaptive optics, which captures light from different altitudes on Earth’s atmosphere, to see a real-time view of solar activity.
  • This not only marks the very first time that solar storms were observed in real time by scientists, it also gives us an opportunity to learn more about how solar storms work.

MULTI-CONJUGATE ADAPTIVE OPTICS

For the first time, scientists were able to get real-time images of the Sun using the world’s highest resolution telescope in Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) in California.

The images, gathered after the telescope was given a critical upgrade, gave researchers the opportunity to view solar activity in real time. A macro view is critical when it comes to observing and understanding solar storms because large flares occur across various points and nearly all at the same time.

According to Philip Goode, a research professor of physics from the New Jersey Institute of Technology:

To understand the fundamental dynamics of the Sun, such as the origin of solar storms, we need to collect data from as wide a field of view as possible. During large flares, for example, magnetic field changes appear to occur at many different places with near simultaneity. Only by seeing the comprehensive array of eruptions all at once will we be able to accurately […] analyze the forces that propel the star’s magnetic fields to twist around each other until they explode, spewing massive amounts of radiation and particles that, when directed earthward, can cause disruptive space weather.

The team used a device called multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO), which captures light from different altitudes on Earth’s atmosphere via three mirrors, guided by cameras capturing images at two thousand frames per second. To accommodate the Earth’s atmospheric light distortions, the mirrors adjust to provide a corrected and real-time view of solar activity. The result was a view three times wider than what was possible before this upgrade.

“Over the years, we had reconfigured the mirrors scores of times, waiting for that ‘Wow!’ moment,” Finally, late last July, we saw what we had long sought – a continuous stream of sharp, wide-field corrected, but essentially identical images,” he adds.

REAL-TIME SCIENCE

This not only marks the very first time that solar storms were observed in real time by scientists, it also gives us an opportunity to learn more about how solar storms work. Solar storms are large explosions that take place in the Sun’s atmosphere. Once the radiation and particles from the storm interact with Earth’s magnetic field, they can cause a geomagnetic storm that can wreak havoc on critical technologies.

A world like ours, where everything runs on electricity and is dependent on the reliability of our telecommunications systems, is particularly vulnerable to geomagnetic storms, as they could kill the Earth’s power grid and shut down telecommunication systems for years.

Having the ability to observe the solar flares simultaneously thus gives scientists the chance to “accurately measure the size, strength, and sequencing of these magnetic events,” says Goode.

A New Jetpack is About to Take to the Skies

A New Jetpack is About to Take to the Skies

 jetpack-aviation-first-civilian-pilot-4-750x300.jpg
Jetpack Aviation
IN BRIEF
  • A jetpack is finally looking for its first civilian test pilot but only the "well qualified" need apply to ensure safety.
  • The pack can take a ride up to 914 meters (3,000 feet) but only for a short period of five to ten minutes.

The New Wave of Personal Flight

In November, we wrote about a jetpack that was being made available to the general public – well, for those who have $250,000 to spare.

It’s called the JB-10, and it was fabricated by Jetpack Aviation. A month prior, CEO David Mayman successfully flew the jetpack off the coast of Monaco.

Regarding specs, this jetpack comes packed with twin jet engines and 7 percent more power than it’s former JB-9 model. It can ascend to 305 meters (1,000 ft) per minute and lasts about 5 to 10 minutes per ride.

“It’s like a Segway,” Mayman described. “If you want to go forward, you just lean forward. If you want to stop, you just lean back. It’s incredibly simple. If you wanted to fly a helicopter, you’d need 150 hours of training — but with this, you can learn everything you need to know in about 3 hours.”

Ready to buy one? Not just yet. The JB-10 might be available for consumers, but only to “well-qualified buyers.” It’s a company tactic to prevent people from flying recklessly. So they announced a contest to award one lucky person the special opportunity to test fly the JB-10 as Jetpack Aviation’s first civilian guinea pig. This is an incredible occasion, knowing that Mayman is the only one to have flown one as of yet.

Mayman hopes to include safety training for potential customers as part of the sales process in the near future. If this civilian flight is successful, it will pave the way for a new era of personal flight. Also on his radar is an all-electric jetpack that will be used to train test pilots without the gas-guzzling feature.

WANT MORE JETPACK IDEAS? 

Other options for a good time in the air include BW-Air, a golf cart jetpack that was released by the Martin Aircraft Company. It can rise up to 914 meters (3,000 feet), and can reach speeds of up to 46 mph (74 km/hr). Only hurdles: a mere $200,000 and a permit to ride from authorities.

Martin Aircraft Company also engaged in another project, partnering with Dubai officials in order to tackle the issue of fighting fires from skyscrapers. These jetpacks accelerate up to speeds of 75 km/hr (46 mph) and can reach up to 914 meters (3,000 feet). That’s slightly taller than the Burj Khalifa. 

With all these technological advancements, what will they come up with next? We’re excited to find out.

Is Nasa hiding aliens? Astronaut covers up evidence of mystery flashing lights moving past the space station, UFO hunters claim

Is Nasa hiding aliens? Astronaut covers up evidence of mystery flashing lights moving past the space station, UFO hunters claim

  • Lights seen in video uploaded by conspiracy theorist group Secure 10
  • Claim it was filmed from the ISS by an astronaut filming the view of Earth 
  • When the lights appear, the astronaut places his hand in front of the camera

Astronauts on board the International Space Station are hiding evidence of aliens.

At least that's the latest wild claim made by a group of UFO hunters who believe they have spotted strange flashing lights near the ISS.

The 'mystery lights' were seen in video uploaded by conspiracy theorist group Secure 10.

They claim it was filmed from the ISS by an astronaut filming the view of Earth from outer space. 

When the glowing lights appear, the astronaut places his hand in front of the camera, Secure 10 claims.

A similar 'cover up' takes place when a light is seen crossing Earth. At around the same time, the astronaut covers the camera with his hand.

One commentator wrote: 'These are some incredible clips, I've never seen any of them.

'How could anyone possibly debunk these?'

While it isn't always possible to determine exactly what these objects are during the brief period they appear in the stream, there are a number possible explanations for these types of sightings.

Is this proof astronauts on the ISS are hiding evidence of UFOs?

'Alien' objects near the ISS appears to be a favourite topic among conspiracy theorists who often scour Nasa feeds to find what they believe to be evidence of ET.

In November, a fast-moving object was spotted flying by the International Space Station moments before its livestream went dead.

BELIEVE IN CONSPIRACY THEORIES? YOU'RE PROBABLY A NARCISSIST

People who doubt the moon landings are more likely to be selfish and attention-seeking, according to a study earlier this year.

Over the course of three online-based studies, researchers at the University of Kent showed strong links between the belief in conspiracy theories and negative psychological traits.

Writing in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science, the team explained: 'Previous research linked the endorsement of conspiracy theories to low self-esteem.'

In the first study, a total of 202 participants completed questionnaires on conspiracy beliefs, asking how strongly they agreed with specific statements, such as whether governments carried out acts of terrorism on their own soil.

Alongside this, they were asked to complete a narcissist scale and a self-esteem assessment.

The results showed that those people who rated highly on the narcissism scale and who had low self-esteem were more likely to be conspiracy believers.

Conspiracy theorists argued this provided evidence that Nasa is covering up proof of a UFO. 

In the footage from the ISS channel uploaded to YouTube by user ColdPyro, a white speck can be seen emerging from the darkness just above Earth's horizon.

Before the 'UFO' travels out of view, the feed cuts to a grey screen, followed by a statement asking users to 'please stand by' due to technical issues. 

ISS feed cut off as possible UFO flies by space station 

 

This was found on the official ISS channel it appears a UFO comes into frame and the feed it then immediately cut,' wrote YouTuber ColdPyro.

The object in question can only be seen for a moment – it emerges around the 5-second mark, just to the left of center

in the frame, and then the feed cuts out to grey just two seconds later.

A blue screen follows this, and then a statement: 'Please stand by. The High Definition Earth Viewing experiment is either switching cameras, or we are experiencing a temporary loss of signal with the International Space Station.'

This isn't the first time UFO hunters have spotted something strange near the ISS.

While many viewers may not have noticed anything out of the ordinary, UFO hunters claim the ‘amazing footage’ shows the appearance of a mysterious spacecraft

THE 1947 RICHARD BYRD EXPEDITION TO ANTARTICA: CLUES TO RECENT HEIGHTENED INTEREST FOR THIS CONTINENT?

THE 1947 RICHARD BYRD EXPEDITION TO ANTARTICA: CLUES TO RECENT HEIGHTENED INTEREST FOR THIS CONTINENT?

Recently there has been a lot of news reports of strange sightings at Antartica and there seems to be a high interest in the continent from lots of high profiled people.
 
Pyramides have been spotted on Google Earth, pictures of UFO above the ice have emerged,... It seems that strange things are happening at Antartica at an increasing pace. 
 
Maybe if we dive into history we'll find an explanation for recent events.
 
 Richard Evelyn Byrd, Jr., (October 25, 1888 – March 11, 1957) was an American naval officer who specialized in feats of exploration. He was a recipient of the Medal of Honor, the highest honor for valor given by the United States, and was a pioneering American aviator, polar explorer, and organizer of polar logistics. 
 
In 1947 he flew directly to the North Pole with his plane. Some believe that instead of going over the pole, he actually entered the Inner Earth. His diary reports of his experience of entering the hollow interior of the Earth, and traveling 1700 miles over mountains, lakes, glaciers, rivers, green vegetation and animal life. 
 
Admiral Byrd stated that the North and South Poles were actually only two of many openings to the center of Earth.
 
 Admiral Byrd also stated that the inner Earth has an inner Sun. His theory and that of earlier scientists, is that the poles of the Earth are convex, rather than concave. Ships and planes could float or fly into an opening.

US NAVY'S SECRET SPACE PROGRAM & NORDIC EXTRATERRESTRIAL ALLIANCE

US NAVY'S SECRET SPACE PROGRAM & NORDIC EXTRATERRESTRIAL ALLIANCE

Will disclosure take place to bring about a better future for all of us? There is extraordinary hope in our midst. The Los Angeles Air Raid on February 24/25, 1942 opened an unprecedented chapter in the evolution of the U.S. Navy. 
 
In response to this incident, a covert research program to investigate the feasibility of exotic antigravity propulsion technologies was developed. 
 
Navy operatives learn about the nazi advanced saucer programs, and they discovered the Nazis were receiving assistance from two extraterrestrial groups. 
 
The Washington Post reports, “As proof that aliens were secretly behind the Nazis, the report explains that Germany built hundreds of submarines toward the end of the war, far more than would have been possible with mere human technology.” 
 
Nordics are typically described as six to seven feet tall with long blond hair and blue eyes, and are commonly reported as being female. Their skin is said to range from fair colored to tanned, and they are sometimes reported to wear skintight clothing. Purported contactees claim to have witnessed the Nords beaming down from gold or silver colored crescent-shaped UFOs or from gigantic bright cigar-shaped UFOs.

ALIENS CAPTURED ON NASA HUYGENS DESCENT IMAGER

ALIENS CAPTURED ON NASA HUYGENS DESCENT IMAGER

The Huygens Probe landed on the surface of Titan in January of 2005, after a 7 year journey.
 
This movie was created with data collected by the Huygens Descent Imager, and depicts the view from Huygens during the last few hours of it's descent. The mission was a joint effort between NASA and The European Space Agency.
 
 It was the first time the surface of Titan was seen in visible light. These are the only surface images ever taken of a body so far away from the sun. 
 
As the probe plunges through the moon's hazy atmosphere and the strange alien landscape is revealed,an anomalous feature can be seen. It's odd shape captures our attention. At first it seems as if it could be a cave, closer inspection however shows that it is a stand alone structure in what appears to be a clearing. 
 
The moon's atmosphere is hazy and the imager is taking images in motion making it difficult to see. As the object gets closer, we zoom in on it to explore further. Once a good visual is established we can clearly see that the object looks like a tent. A white tent with two beings standing outside of it to the right.
 
 They look very much like alien grey's with large bulbous heads and long arms. . They even appear to be clothed, with the taller one wearing white and the small one wearing red. 
 
Perhaps the small one is a child. There are objects in the interior of the tent. 
 
A tent on a grassy clearing. With two very human looking figures. Does life thrive throught the universe? Has it taken a similar course on other planetary bodies within our solar system and elsewhere? Or is it possible that we have never left earth?

US PREDATOR DRONE ATTACKED BY UFO

US PREDATOR DRONE ATTACKED BY UFO

Recently a video appeared that shows a US predator drone an a mission that is being attacked by a UFO.
 
The drone was flying true a landscape of high mountains when it suddenly notices a unknown object. The drone starts to track the drone untill it gets out of sight.
 
 The predator drone tries to track the object but the UFO decides it's time to shut down the drown. It seems to shoot some sort of energy beam towards the drone and the video stream gets messed up.
 
 The object appears to be pretty small but it does not want to be tracked by the drone. 
 
The weapon used by the UFO seems to be some sort of energy weapon. It does not stop the drone from working, but it clearly affects the video capabilities of the drone.
 
 It's not clear what the source of this video is. 
 
By the look of the drone interface, it seems to be a recent military drone. 
 
According to multiple sources this footage was leaked to the public. No other information could be found on the origin of this video.

The UFO was probably scouting the backyards of the community and was surprise that in the other yard when it noticed someone playing with their dog. Lucky for him he had a camera or he would most defiantly have missed it ever being there.

Eyewitness states: 
I was trying to make my dog jump into the air to get an action shot of her, I do this often & end up with alot of bad photos. I was about to delete this off my camera when I noticed what looks like a large rock in the sky with a blue glow. I did not see this with my naked eye but wish I had so I could have zoomed in on it!

Skeptic Turns A Believer After Seeing A Star Trek UFO Above A Lake

Skeptic Turns A Believer After Seeing A Star Trek UFO Above A Lake

UFO-photo

A UFO that can be likened to the Star Strek Enterprise was observed apparently hovering over a lake. Former Skeptic Chad Haines was left convinced on the existence of aliens after taking the image of the bizarre of UFO above Clarenville in Canada.

He claimed that he saw the strange aerial thing moving up and down before shooting out of sight. Mr. Haines pointed out that the UFO was too big to be a drone and definitely not a plane. The UFO stayed there for two or three hours, according to the witness.

The still photo was featured in a video by Tyler Glockner of SecureTeam10. Glockner says in the video that something is observed flying in the skies above Canada. He describes it as saucer-like with similarities to the Star Trek ship.

Mr. Glocker adds that the unidentified flying object was noticed in the same place back in 1978.The mysterious cigar-shaped craft was caught hovering above Random Island by a police officer.

However, skeptic Scott Brando, who runs ufoofinterest.org, concluded that the apparent flying object could be just a bird that had been backlit by sunlight. He also pointed out that the image is low quality and does not have metadata to identify the UFO.
