We are used to treating myths and legends as something that does not actually exist. However, if we have a closer look on the cultural inheritance of the people, we might notice remarkable things. For example, some peoples that live absolutely separately from each other, have legends that describe one and the same thing or event.
Almost all the nations of the world, there are myths and legends about giants, remarkably similar to humans. All the world's faiths and religions talk about them. On Earth, there are no inhabited land, where neither would live, according to legend, giants.
In the minds of people so deeply ingrained belief in them, even the huge stones of Europe (megaliths), or South America, and the pyramids of Egypt called cyclopean buildings.
There are hundreds of mysterious locations spanning the entire globe. Some are similar to the ones we’ve mentioned already, featuring stone circles and other megalithic structures—and others are entirely unique. All of them are ancient—and they hint at the strong possibility that we don’t know anywhere near as much about our distant past as we think we do.
UFO Over Mountains In Horseshoe Band, Idaho In Great Photo, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: 9-1-2014 but released today Location of sighting: Horseshoe band, Idaho, USA Source: MUFON #81381 This is a great capture of a UFO over a small area of Idaho back in 2014, but released today. Smaller UFOs will shoot past and examine any activity that stands out, like a human in a forest area. These smaller UFOs will later gather in a cloudy area and wait to be picked up by the main ship. Scott C. Waring Eyewitness states:
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.
UFO Over Arizona Causes Reflection Of Itself On Clouds Above, Arizona, Jan 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: January 6, 2016
Location of sighting: Arizona, USA
This UFO was noticed when the sun lit it up and caused a disk reflection above it on the clouds. Only a metal reflective surface could do this, and as you see, the dark area of the cloud is the actual UFO. The lighter parts are the thin cloud as the sun shines through it. Even cloaked in a cloud, this is clearly a UFO. Below is the negative colors, making the UFO stand out from all its surroundings. Its metallic surface is a different material than anything in the sky or the ground. Scott C. Waring
Mysterieuze signalen uit de ruimte komen van ver, heel ver
Astronomen zijn al geruime tijd in de ban van een raadselachtig fenomeen uit het heelal. Het gaat om zogeheten korte radioflitsen aan de hemel.
Wetenschappers hebben nu voor het eerst de exacte locatie vastgesteld van zo’n radioflits: een sterrenstelsel op drie miljard lichtjaar van de aarde.
Korte radioflitsen werden in 2007 voor het eerst ontdekt. Er zijn in totaal een twintigtal geregistreerd, maar slecht één – FRB 121102 – herhaalde zich geregeld.
Debat
De signalen duren slechts een fractie van een seconde en produceren in die tijd evenveel energie als de zon in 10.000 jaar.
Wat de radioflitsen precies veroorzaakt, blijft onderwerp van debat.
Sterrenkundigen van de Cornell University onderzochten de flits van 2 november 2012 door zes maanden lang de ruimte in de gaten te houden. Ze legden afgelopen jaar in totaal 13 flitsen vast.
Geen antwoord
“We weten inmiddels dat de flits afkomstig is van een klein sterrenstelsel op meer dan drie miljard lichtjaar van de aarde,” aldus het team.
De ontdekking biedt alleen geen antwoord op de vraag wat de mysterieuze signalen veroorzaakt.
Volgens sommigen zijn ze afkomstig van de overblijfselen van een zware ster, bijvoorbeeld een neutronenster.
Verschillende soorten
Anderen menen dat ze worden opgewekt in de nabijheid van een zwart gat dat gas uit zijn omgeving opslokt.
Duncan Lorimer van de Universiteit van West Viriginia, die de eerste snelle radioflits ontdekte, zei: “Voor zover bekend is dit de enige zich herhalende flits. Misschien zijn er wel verschillende soorten.”
The ultimate evidence: Earth has been visited by intelligent Alien civilizations
It’s very true that humans continue learning throughout their lives, but not only humans, society in general and even perhaps our civilization as one, has strived to evolve and develop through time, and if we have learnt one thing from the past is that we are continuously exploring our past, uncovering the true origin of mankind. As society and civilization on Earth develop, we seek to uncover the enigma of our origin, and just as we strive to understand where we come from, we have always wondered if we are the only ones out there, in the vast cosmos which was believed to be insignificantly small in the distant past when the Earth was believed to be flat, until Pythagoras asserted that our planet isn’t flat but spherical.
Major turnarounds have happened recently, and the best example is Mars.
Not so long ago, it was believed that Mars was a completely dead planet, without water, without any chance of life. Today, thanks to the rovers exploring our neighboring planet we have learnt that not only is Mars much different than what we thought, it has flowing liquid water on its surface, in the distant past, it had huge oceans lakes and rivers on its surface.
So, we continue to learn new things about our planet, solar system and the universe, and as we travel along this galactic path of knowledge we understand that it is very unlikely that we are the only ones out there. Those who have remained skeptical about the possibility of Alien life in the cosmos have changed their views in recent years, and it is very likely that the next major paradigm-shift that will change everything we know about life in the universe is the ultimate proof that life, intelligent life exists beyond Earth.
According to astronomers there could be over 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe that is if you don’t believe in the multiverse theory, which could prove to be another game-changer. Scientists say that the number of planets similar to Earth aren’t that rare as we believed before, and this increases the chance that life cold have developed elsewhere in the cosmos as it did on Earth.
So, what are the chances that Alien life exists, and Earth has been visited?
Well, according to experts in the field, it is nearly impossible that we HAVE NOT been visited by beings not from Earth.
Unrecognizable Alien technology
An intelligent Alien civilization capable of visiting other Solar Systems and galaxies must have very advanced technology at their disposal, technology that goes far beyond anything our civilization has. The chances that this kind of technology is present in our solar system and that we can’t even recognize it is something that according to researchers is a very likely possibility.
According to scientists from the University of Edinburgh there are possibilities that “self-replicating” robotic alien spacecraft are venturing into our solar system. If this turned out to be true, these probes would be product of such highly advanced technology to our understanding, that these probes would literally appear invisible to human perception, researchers said. And it isn’t that far-fetched is it? The idea that somewhere out there are alien civilizations which are so advanced in every aspect, that we could not even see their existence in our reality.
The mathematicians used computing power to inform their predictions, which might not sound out of place in a sci-fi novel. The two mathematicians analyzed the possibility that probes could travel through space in a study published in the Journal of Astrobiology.
In their work, Duncan Forgan and Arwen Nicholson affirm the possibility that highly advanced alien races are taking advantage of the gravitational field of the stars to speed up “their” spacecraft travelling through space. Interestingly, this “technique” would not be something exclusive to highly advanced alien beings: in fact, we use this technology for our own spacecraft. For example, the voyager probes are making use of the gravitational field of the planets to gain speed through space. According to a mathematical analysis, a fleet of alien probes, with highly advanced technology could self-replicate constructing new realities for themselves, making use of cosmic dust and gas, dividing into parent and child probes which would set off to explore a different star, in their goal to look for signs of life and so on in their never-ending journey through the universe.
Unclassified Secret documents about Alien Life
In the last couple of years, a number of secret documents about Alien life and UFOs have become accessible to the general public. These documents are considered by many as the ultimate proof that alien life exists elsewhere in the universe and that we have been visited by beings not from Earth for thousands of years.
NSA Top Secret Document about 29 Alien messages
On October 21, 2004 the National Security Agency (NSA) authorized the release of a then top secret document, NSA Journal Vol. XIV No 1, which is in fact a report presented to the NSA by Dr Howard Campaigne. The report addresses the decoding of extraterrestrial messages that were received from ‘outer space’. To verify the authenticity of the document, visit the following link: https://www.nsa.gov/public_info/_files/ufo/key_to_et_messages.pdf which will take you to the official website of the NSA. To download the document click here.
According to reports, the messages were intercepted by the Sputnik satellite but no one had the necessary knowledge to decode them at the time they were received.
FBI and visitations from Beings from other dimensions
In 2011 after some documents were “declassified” a report written by a special agent of the FBI in 1947 reached the public. The special agent of the FBI, a lieutenant colonel whose identity, remained anonymous because of “national security” gather numerous data on the UFO phenomena after interviewing and studying the phenomena for years. According to reports and “Declassified” documents, we have been visited by numbs extraterrestrial species, some of these, are not only from other planets, but from other dimensions. Some of these beings originate from an ethereal plane coexistent with our physical universe. These “entities” that could “materialize” on our planet appeared as giant translucent figures. The official document from the FBI vault can be found by clicking here.
There is a top-secret (now unclassified) document written by Robert Oppenheimer, an American theoretical physicist, and Albert Einstein, a German theoretical physicist who wrote a report about the “Relationship with Inhabitants of Celestial Bodies”. This enigmatic six-page document is one of the first to make reference to Extraterrestrial Biological Entities and states that the presence of UFOs is something accepted by the military for a long time. (You can read the entire document by clicking here).
Project Blue Book
The Project began in 1947 after a series of UFO sightings that shocked media and people across America. One of those cases that caught the attention of the government was when pilot Kenneth Arnold observed nine unidentified flying objects moving at high speeds through the skies over Washington’s Mount Rainier; a scenario that has not been explained and people today still wonder what happened.
Project Blue Book investigated 12,618 UFO sightings over a period of two decades. Huge amounts of data were collected, researched and analyzed, and even though we can get access to the data, some Ufologists believe that the truth has been hidden even though secret documentation has been declassified.
As a result, from 1947 to 1969, a total of 12, 618 sightings were reported to Project BLUE BOOK, where 90 percent of those sightings were attributed to explainable phenomena, caused by known astronomical phenomena, atmospheric or artificial (man-made) phenomenon, but out of the 12,618 sightings, 701 remain “Unidentified” meaning that there was insufficient information to assign or attribute the event to a known cause.
Surely 701 unexplained cases is a number that has something to say. What are those 701 unidentified cases? Is there a slight possibility that out of those 701 reports, some can be credited to extraterrestrial beings visiting Earth? While project blue book might seem at first as a real initiative that looks into the unexplained sightings over the U.S. some believe that this project is an actual marketing trick, or a public PR campaign created to calm people’s nerves.
If the above documents aren’t enough material to believe in Alien life, we can look at some of the statements made by highly-ranked officials in the military and government.
Official Transcript: How the CIA informed President Reagan about UFO’s
Transcript of Classified Tape Recording Made At Camp David, Maryland
During A Presidential Briefing RELEASE 27a – Reagan Briefing
Transcript of classified tape recording made at Camp David, Maryland during a presidential briefing regarding the subject of UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS and EXTRATERRESTRIAL VISITATION of EARTH. President RONALD REAGAN was present.
The recording was made between March 6 and 8, 1981. You can read the entire transcript here.
Many have made shocking comments about alien life and omitted information regarding alien life, here below are some of our favorite quotes
“Not every discovery has been announced.”
— Dr. Farouk El Baz, NASA scientist.
In a recent interview, renowned scientist Professor Stephen Hawking said: “To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational” (Source)
“I was testing a P-51 fighter in Minneapolis when I spotted this object. I was at about 10,000 feet on a nice, bright, sunny afternoon. I thought the object was a kite, then I realized that no kite is gonna fly that high.” As I got closer it looked like a weather balloon, gray and about three feet in diameter. But as soon as I got behind the darn thing it didn’t look like a balloon anymore. It looked like a saucer, a disk. About the same time, I realized that it was suddenly going away from me — and there I was, running at about 300 miles per hour. I tracked it for a little way, and then all of a sudden the damn thing just took off. It pulled about a 45 degree climbing turn and accelerated and just flat disappeared.” – Donald Slayton, Mercury astronaut, 1951
It was a little different when James Lovell on board the Apollo 8 command module came out from behind the moon and said for everybody to hear: ‘PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT THERE IS A SANTA CLAUS.’ Even though this happened on Christmas Day 1968, many people sensed a hidden meaning in those words. [B] ‘PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT THERE IS A SANTA CLAUS.’ – Astronaut James Lovell, Apollo 8. December 25th, 1968
“We thought they could have been Russian ¬ we regularly had MiG-15s over flying our base. We scrambled our Sabre jets to intercept and got to our ceiling of 45,000 feet . . . and they were still way above us traveling faster than we were.” “These vehicles were in formation like a fighter group, but they were metallic silver and saucer-shaped. Believe me, they weren’t like any MiGs I’d seen before! They had to be UFOs.” – Major Gordon Cooper
According toJames Godwell,an aerospace journalist who wrote for several publications like Jane’s Defense Weekly, Aviation Week and Space Technology, and Interavia, during some of his interviews with highly ranked individuals in the military and aerospace industry, some of his contacts said “we have things out there that are literally out of this world, better than Star Trek or what you see in the movies.”
UFO sightings of the past: the Ultimate Ancient Alien Evidence
According to experts, the Vedas speak about two categories of flying objects that visited ancient India in the distant past. These mysterious objects are described in Sanskrit writing, where you can find incredible devices and technologies that were not supposed to be present on our planet for thousands of years. In the Mahabharata, the Puranas, and the Ramayanas, we find more descriptions of mysterious devices that surpass technological understanding of ancient man.
The descriptions of highly advanced vehicles found in ancient texts are both incredible and confusing. In the ancient book of the Vaimanika Shastraor the Science of Aeronautics, there are texts which speak about crafts that are literally controlled with our minds, made possible because of extremely advanced technology which has been kept away from society in modern times.
According to Dr. V. Raghavam, a well-known a Sanskrit scholar and musicologist, who authored over 120 books and 1200 articles, ancient Indian texts speak about humans that lived on other planets and alien beings that visited our ancestors thousands of years ago. Dr. V. Raghavam won the Sahitya Akademi Award for Sanskrit in 1966.
We quote Dr. Raghavan:
“Fifty years of researching this ancient work convinces me that there are living beings on other planets, and that they were visiting the earth as far back as 4000 B.C.”
He further explains:
“There is a just a mass of fascinating information about flying machines, even fantastic science fiction weapons, that can be found in translations of the Vedas (scriptures), Indian epics, and other ancient Sanskrit text”.
Ancient Egypt and the Tulli papyrus: Evidence of a massive UFO sighting
In Ancient Egypt the Tulli papyrus tells an incredible story of a mass UFO sightings. It is believed that this ancient document, which in fact isn’t a papyrus actually, offers the earliest citation of flying saucers on the planet. The Tulli “papyrus” is a translation of a modern transcription of an ancient Egyptian document:
“In the year 22, of the third month of winter, sixth hour of the day […] among the scribes of the House of Life it was found that a strange Fiery Disk was coming in the sky. It had no head. The breath of its mouth emitted a foul odor. Its body was one rod in length and one rod in width. It had no voice. It came toward His Majesty’s house. Their heart became confused through it, and they fell upon their bellies. They [went] to the king, to report it. His Majesty [ordered that] the scrolls [located] in the House of Life be consulted. His Majesty meditated on all these events which were now going on.
After several days had passed, they became more numerous in the sky than ever. They shined in the sky more than the brightness of the sun, and extended to the limits of the four supports of heaven […] Powerful was the position of the Fiery Disks.
The army of the King looked on, with His Majesty in their midst. It was after the evening meal when the Disks ascended even higher in the sky to the south. Fish and other volatiles rained down from the sky: a marvel never before known since the foundation of the country. And His Majesty caused incense to be brought to appease the heart of Amun-Re, the god of the Two Lands. And it was [ordered] that the event [be recorded for] His Majesty in the Annals of the House of Life [to be remembered] forever.”
In Roman history numerous mysterious objects were reported in the sky. In 154 BC, in modern-day Italy people from the north reported seeing countless objects flying in the sky. In 217, people witnessed shiny disks- resembling shields in the sky. These mysterious UFO’s were reported in many parts of Europe not only over modern-day Italy. In 214 BC, Roman historian Livy wrote about ‘phantom ships gleaming in the sky.’
Aliens Existence: The Undeniable Proof that we are not Alone in the Universe
Photo Credits: via conspiracyclub.co
Wikileak’s founder Julian Assange recently got the attention of the world when he mentions the site plans to publish leaked cables that reference UFOs. Believe it or not, WikiLeaks released secret cables that disclosed information about ETs in our solar system and hardly anybody battered an eyelid!
The documents offered hints about aliens and extraterrestrial presence. NASA has been accused of hiding alien life. However, with the release of the new evidence, would they accept the fact that we are not alone in the universe?
If all goes as planned, we will meet aliens in a decade or two! Wikileaks documents did not mention any people from the government or agencies that have deceived us and have implicated in the cover-up, but it did tell us all one crucial thing, way before NASA breathed a word and that is the existence of extra-terrestrial beings.
We’re already halfway through 2013 and the world continues to wake up to the fact that we are not alone in the universe. This year alone we’ve seen a tremendous step forward regarding UFO disclosure. In early May, researchers, activists, political leaders and high ranking military/agency personnel from around the world testified to the reality of the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon in front of several former United States members of congress. To watch an interview with the former 2008 presidential candidate and ex-congressman Mike Gravel (who participated in the hearings) click here. You can watch interviews with all of the senators that participated in the event here.
For more CE articles on the subject of UFOs and extraterrestrials, click HERE.
Prior to the recent hearing on UFOs and extraterrestrial life, we’ve had explosive statements made by NASA astronauts and professors, you can watch some of those statements here and here. Not only has the world heard from all of these credible people, its also been privy to official documentation released by dozens of governments worldwide that outline the reality of the UFO phenomenon. Documents indicate that UFOs are of concern to governments, and they put a significant amount of time, effort and resources into studying them. Apart from governments, agencies like the National Security Agency also released official files regarding UFOs, you can view some of these previously classified documents here.
It’s now a fact that UFOs are tracked on radar, performing maneuvers that defy our idea of physics. Jets are constantly scrambled to take a closer look at them. This is no longer a conspiracy theory, it’s a fact. Release of files began early in 2007 with the UK, among others. Since then they’ve released thousands of pages every year, with the latest ones published in June 2013 made available at the UK’s National Archives. You can view them here.
Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense.
—Former CIA Director, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, 1960.
The UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon is extremely top secret, access to this type of documentation and the deeper truth behind it is almost impossible. CIA directors, presidents and other high ranking officials barely have any access to these programs. That being said, all of the information that’s already out in the public domain is overwhelming. It makes you wonder how far down the rabbit hole this topic goes.
As most of the world today already knows, Wikileaks is an international, online, non-profit organization that publishes secret information, news leaks, and classified material from anonymous sources. They’ve been a tremendous threat to the controlling elite for a number of years, and have gained the attention of major mainstream media outlets worldwide. For the most part, these mainstream media outlets have bashed Assange, pointing to the idea that the release of classified documents is a threat to national security. That’s not true, it’s more like a threat to the truth that the elite try to cover up on a daily basis that would threaten their ability to control the human race.
Since a large amount of official documentation has already been released, documents from the Wikileaks cables shouldn’t come as a big surprise. Assange has already mentioned that there are yet to be published cables that make reference to UFOs. This is no joke, below are quotations taken from official transcripts via the official Wikileak cables. You can view it here: http://wikileaks.org/cable/2010/01/10DUSHANBE82.html
On January 13 Ambassador called on Dushanbe Mayor and Chairman of the upper house of Parliament Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev at his parliamentary office. The Mayor began the meeting with a lengthy discourse on Afghanistan, thanking the United States for its contributions and sacrifices there, and saying that U.S. activities there were very important “as we enter the third millennium and the 21st century.” Ubaidulloev thought the main task there was to build a sense of national identity among ethnically disparate groups, and said the United States was an example for this. He noted that “war is very dangerous”, and said “we know there is life on other planets, but we must make peace here first.
In a platitude-ridden meeting, Dushanbe Mayor Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev said upcoming elections would be free and fair, that contributions to the Roghun Dam were voluntary, and that the losses suffered by the United States in Afghanistan were felt by Tajiks as their own. Ubaidulloev asked for help in getting Tajik students admitted to Harvard University, but effectively declined to help find a new location for an American Corner in Dushanbe. He asserted the existence of life on other planets, caveating this by noting that we should focus on solving our problems on Earth. End Summary.
Not only do these cables raise an eyebrow, but a statement given by Julian Assange himself raises the need for further inquiry. The audio on the video is delayed. What points to this interview being real? For one, if you can read lips it’s not hard to follow. Secondly, it sounds exactly like Julian. Thirdly, multiple mainstream media outlets (Telegraph, CBS news and more) published the original version of the video which was taken down immediately. One of the mainstream media outlets was Forbes, you can view that poorly written article here in which you will see access to the video has been cut off. Articles written by major media outlets are usually very poor, and do their best to ridicule the subject of UFOs. The original version had perfect audio, the same sound and was in the same setting.
“I have said in passing there is information about UFOs in Cablegate. And that is true, but these are only small passing references. Most of the material concerns UFO cults, and their behaviour in recruiting people. For instance, there is quite a large cable, which we’ll try and release in the next few days, concerning the Raelians, a UFO cult which has a strong presence in Canada and was of concern to the U.S. ambassador in Canada – Julian Assange”
It’s not surprising that that the U.S. ambassador in Canada was concerned with this group. High level agencies are also concerned with abductees and ET contactees. Their mail is stamped in a special way, they are constantly surveyed by army intelligence, phone tapping and are also confronted by ‘men in black’ (intelligence officers). Agencies that are active in the UFO phenomenon keep close tabs on UFO/extraterrestrial activity outside of their sphere of influence. That being said, again, it’s no surprise that the U.S. ambassador had an interest in this ‘UFO cult.’ Anything extraterrestrial would be a concern to the elite, as they are the ones active in the cover up.
We are living in an extremely unique time, our world has become much more transparent than ever before. One aspect of multiple realizations is the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon, but it seems to branch into every aspect of our reality depending on how far down the rabbit hole you want to go. Our perception of life on other planets largely comes from external sources like television programming. As a result, many are filled with fear when giving thought to this subject. Hopefully as we move through the shift in consciousness the planet is currently experiencing, fear will dissipate as it will no longer serve the human race. This is undoubtedly one of the largest realizations in human history. The only thing that goes beyond it, in my opinion, is the realization of humanities infinite potential to create a new experience from a place of peace, love, co-operation and understanding.
“There is abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been visiting us for a very long time. That their appearance is bizarre from any type of traditional materialistic western point of view. That these visitors use the technologies of consciousness, they use toroids, they use co-rotating magnetic disks for their propulsion systems, that seems to be a common denominator of the UFO phenomenon.” – Dr Brian O’leary, Former NASA Astronaut and Princeton Physics Professor (source)
“Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time” Apollo 14 Astronaut (source # 1)(source # 2)
“Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about the direction we were heading and offered to help. Instead, some of us interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after. It is ironic that the US should be fighting monstrously expensive wars, allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy when trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both congress and the commander in chief have been kept deliberately in the dark.” –

Chile Navy Release 10 Min of UFO Footage In Infrared, Gov Calls It 100% Real, 3 Videos, UFO Sighting Daily.
Date of sighting: Nov 11, 2014 but released this week Location of sighting: Along ocean area of Chile, Vina Del Mar This incredible raw military footage was captured by two naval officers on a military helicopter with a high tech infrared camera with computer target tracking. The footage was taken by Santiago when they were flying at an altitude of 4,500 feet up. They first noticed the UFO with the naked eye when they were 34 to 40 miles away from it. The helicopter pilots were a Navy captain and a camera technician who's specially falls into this area, so with an expert like him behind this high tech military grade IR camera...this UFO was not going to escape from being recorded. They captured ten full minutes of video that is absolutely mind blowing. The captain stated that the UFO was a "flat, elongated structure with two thermal spotlights-like discharges that did not coincide with the axis of motion." During this chase, the pilot contacted two different radar towers, but both were unable to track the UFO the pilot was recording. The pilots helicopter radar also failed to pick up this alien craft, and yet they it was big enough to notice 40 miles away and record for over 10 minutes! The pilot of the helicopter did attempt to contact the UFO with his radio, but there was not reply, probably because alien craft communicate in different ways than our old ancient radio waves. This ground breaking footage realised by the Chile government and their statement of it having been analysed and scrutinised for over 2 years before its release, only adds to the authenticity and importance of this sighting. Also something thats really amazing is that the helicopter records the UFO MAKING A CLOUD!!! Thats right. The UFO makes a long thick trail...which I knew it could because it has four cloud spray coming from it, but to see it, to get military confirmation about what I have been saying almost daily on this site feels really good. I believe this UFO made this cloud trail behind it, because it was releasing some drones...probes if you will that will collect the data and scans that the aliens want. It must have been very important, because the UFO itself was visible but the drones were hidden in the cloud cover. A simple magic trick of watching what the right hand is doing, while the the coin is really in the left hand. Simple and yet amazing. Scott C. Waring
Notice that the above photo of the UFO has four streams of clouds coming out. When this exits the UFO it quickly becomes a cloud.
Every year, the Consumer Electronics Show highlights the latest in tech, and this year's innovations include paper-thin televisions, autonomous cars, and advanced AI systems.
Though not all of the products showcased at the CES will make it to market, the event is an inspiring showcase of humanity's capacity for innovation and imagination.
It’s the first week in January, and that can only mean two things — painful hangovers from New Year’s revelries and the international Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas! Forget Christmas…for tech nerds, the CES is like dying and going to heaven — a heaven full of shiny new technology, self-driving cars, flying cars, vibrating pants, robots, smart beds, and loads of other neat stuff.
There’s a lot of new tech to get through, so let’s take a look at some of the coolest (and weirdest) offerings at the CES 2017:
NVIDIA’S SPOT AND SHIELD
NVIDIA founder and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang was the keynote speaker on Wednesday night, and he revealed some of the company’s big plans for the coming year. Among the most notable was the “Shield,” a 4K HDR streaming media player, but it’s NVIDIA’s new AI platforms that are really turning heads. NVIDIA’s SPOT device, which can be simply plugged into any outlet and linked with the Shield, is capable of natural language processing and voice recognition, and it even knows where you are in your house. Big Huang is watching you!
BOSCH CONCEPT CAR
Bosch’s new concept car gives us a preview of a world in which cars are personalized and, frankly, little more than big, expensive smart devices that can move you from place to place. Bosch’s futuristic vehicle concept includes facial recognition technology to customize the driving experience to an individual driver’s tastes, and the car’s haptic touch display, gesture control, and eye-tracking systems seem awfully “sci-fi” to us.

THE FF91
Faraday Future, meanwhile, launched its FF91 — a fully electric, fully connected self-driving car with a 1,050-hp engine that can take it from 0 to 60 mph in 2.39 seconds. And it even includes a smartphone-operated “driverless valet” that parks the car for you. Eat your heart out, Tesla!
DRIVERLESS AI
In other news, the German automotive company ZF has partnered with NVIDIA to create the ProAI, a deep-learning artificial intelligence (AI) program that represents a huge step toward “intellectualizing” our vehicles. According to an NVIDIA press release, the ZF ProAI “will be able to process inputs from multiple cameras, plus lidar, radar and ultrasonic sensors, in a process we call sensor fusion,” generating a 360-degree sensory sphere for the vehicle.
Looks like our vehicles are finally getting the futuristic smarts they’ll need to survive in the 21st century.
WALLPAPER TV
COMING SOON - LG SIGNATURE OLED TV W - 4K HDR Smart TV - 77" Class (76.7" Diag)
In the world of television (a perennial favorite), LG debuted the Signature OLED TV W — known on the street as “The Wallpaper TV.” It’s got a flexible screen with a depth of just 4 millimeters (.15 inches). You can hang it on the wall with magnets, and it comes in 65- and 77-inch versions. It’s slim, sleek, and futuristic, and you can have it in April for the low, low price of only $8,000.
VIBRATING PANTS
Easily the most anticipated product at the CES 2017 — and without question 2017’s most promising transformative technology — is Spinali Design’s vibrating short-shorts, which sync with your phone and translate directions from your favorite navigation app into goading twitches to your left or right cheeks. For the time being, however, the technology is limited to women who habitually go braless and have an unhealthy denim fixation.

Virtual reality shoes
Developed by Japanese firm Cerevo, the Taclim VR shoes allow you to use your feet to interact with what you see in virtual reality.
The shoes give haptic feedback and vibrations to the wearer to give them a sense of walking on the virtual surfaces they see in front of them.
Hypersuit
Another extension to a virtual reality headset, the Hypersuit is a wearable simulator from French firm THEORY that gives the wearer the impression they have wings or can fly like a superhero.
Intended for entertainment and gaming purposes, users lie on a movable exoskeleton platform and use their arms to control the direction of "flight", while a fan blows in their face to complete the illusion.
Smart cane
Created by French company Dring, this smart cane for the elderly is designed to learn the user's habits and detect any unusual activity, such as falling over.
It can then automatically alert carers and family, without any action from the user, and share their location over text or email.
Smart bed
The Sleep Number 360 smart bed is designed to keep you comfortable by sensing your movements and automatically adjusting your position to keep you sleeping blissfully.
It works even when there are two people in the bed, can warm your feet to help you fall asleep faster, and even raise you head to stop snoring.
Het Chandra-röntgenobservatorium heeft een fraaie opname gemaakt van een stukje hemel ter grootte van de volle maan. In totaal zijn er 5.000 röntgenobjecten te zien, waaronder heel veel supermassieve zwarte gaten.
De onderzoekers beweren dat zo’n zeventig procent van alle röntgenobjecten op deze opname supermassieve zwarte gaten zijn. Dit zijn zwarte gaten met een gewicht van 100.000 tot tien miljard zonnen.
Om de foto te maken keek de röntgensatelliet zeven miljoen seconden naar een klein stukje hemel. Dat komt overeen met 11,5 weken. “Dankzij deze foto kunnen we zien hoe zwarte gaten er in het jonge universum uitzagen en hoe ze de afgelopen miljarden jaren zijn geëvolueerd”, vertelt professor Niel Brandt van de Penn State universiteit.
Straling verraadt aanwezigheid zwarte gaten Een zwart gat trekt materie aan. Dit gas warmt op naarmate het dicht in de buurt komt van de waarnemingshorizon van het zwarte gat. Voorbij deze ‘grens’ kan licht niet meer ontsnappen. Het opgewarmde gas geeft op een bepaald moment röntgenstraling af. “Het is lastig om zwarte gaten in het jonge universum te vinden, omdat ze ver van ons verwijderd zijn en alleen straling produceren als ze actief materie naar zich toe trekken”, verklaart professor Bin Luo van de Nanjing Universiteit. “Maar wanneer we lang genoeg kijken – zoals Chandra nu heeft gedaan – zien we steeds meer zwarte gaten.”
Groeispurt Dankzij deze foto kunnen wetenschappers zien hoe supermassieve zwarte gaten een tot twee miljard jaar na de oerknal groeiden. Volgens astronomen groeiden deze zwarte gaten niet langzaam, maar hadden ze flinke groeispurts. Daarnaast waren de ‘zaadjes’ – waaruit de supermassieve zwarte gaten groeiden – vrij zwaar. Niet 100 keer het gewicht van de zon, maar eerder 10.000 tot 100.000 keer het gewicht van onze moederster.
Jonge sterrenstelsels Maar dat is nog niet alles. Astronomen zien ook röntgenstraling van massieve, jonge sterrenstelsels op een afstand van 12,5 miljard lichtjaar van de aarde. Waarschijnlijk is deze straling afkomstig van grote groepen stellaire zwarte gaten. Zo’n stellair zwart gat ontstaat nadat een extreem zware ster sterft. Een miljard jaar na de oerknal waren er veel reusachtige sterren in het jonge universum, dus dit kan verklaren waarom een jong sterrenstelsel veel stellaire zwarte gaten heeft en dus veel straling afgeeft.
Een miljard röntgenobjecten De foto laat een stukje hemel zien ter grootte van de volle maan. Stel, Chandra zou de volledige hemel in kaart brengen, dan zou dit resulteren in een foto met daarop een miljard röntgenobjecten. Er is dus nog genoeg om te ontdekken!
Banned Disney UFO Documentary - Unedited - Alien Encounters
Published on Apr 29, 2016
This film was shown only once, and with no advance notice on stations in only five US cities. The original Michael Eisner intro hit me right in the nostalgia.
Lost Walt Disney UFO Documentary, Alien Encounters: In March of 1995, Walt Disney Television aired an intriguing UFO special. This highly unusual UFO video special presents UFOs and alien visitation to our planet as a matter of fact.
At first glance, the special appears to be a promotion of the "New Tomorrowland" area, in particular the new "Alien Encounters" ride. This was in the mid 90's. (This venture was cancelled almost immediately)
However, upon closer inspection...it is much more. The entire program, which opens with a short segment by Disney CEO Michael Eisner, does not even question the existence of UFOs and a major UFO cover-up. In fact, at times it has A Tone Of ridicule Towards Those Who Still Deny That UFO's exist; quite unique ___ ""It's easily located today online, but the circumstances of its production and (highly limited) distribution, and its oddly firm view of the reality of the phenomenon, make it decidedly weird and unique.""
""If all Disney wanted to do was promote its new theme park ride with an alien theme, they needn't have gone to nearly as much trouble. As it is, it's almost like the ride-promo mission was used as a Trojan horse / excuse to deliver a lot more subversive and revolutionary information. Maybe this really was a disclosure exercise gone awry, maybe it was out-of-control filmmakers who produced an end product the Disney chiefs didn't know what to make of. But it sure is fun speculating, and the show has since become a UFO conspiracy' staple -- another tantalizing hint of the truth, allegedly.""

CEFAA/YouTubr
The Ars Files casts a skeptical eye on developments in the UFO community. Is the truth out there? Maybe. Maybe not. But we try to find it here.
Early on the afternoon of November 14, 2014, a Chilean Navy pilot and a technician were flying their helicopter along the coast when they saw something strange. They were going north at an altitude of 1.4km in a twin-engine Airbus Cougar when something appeared in the sky and matched their velocity of 130knots.
As part of the flight, which took place west of Santiago, the helicopter's technician was testing the thermal imaging properties of an infrared FLIR high-definition camera. Naturally, he turned the camera on the unidentified object. After several minutes the pilot and technician observed the object make two distinct discharges of some type of liquid, or gas, which produced a very hot signal captured by the infrared imager. The technician captured nearly 10 minutes of video, which shows both visible and infrared camera views.
After this sighting, the Navy turned the video over to the the Committee for the Study of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena, known as CEFAA. This is the Chilean government group that investigates UFO sightings, or Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon. On Friday, after a study by scientists, military officials, and even some photo analysis experts from France, the committee released its conclusion.
"The Committee for the Study of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena, comprised of leading scientists, analysts, and aviation technicians, after an extensive study of the case, determined that it was a UAP, or Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon," the agency stated in a news release.
Full video from the Chilean helicopter
A US-based journalist who investigates UFOs, Leslie Kean, has interviewed some of the principals and had access to the case files. She provided more details about the incident in a report for the Huffington Post, which she characterized as a "groundbreaking UFO video."
We're not ready to go that far, but the infrared video is intriguing. According to Kean, the French analysts explained the sighting as a medium-haul aircraft on approach to the Santiago airport, with the heat signals due to waste water being dumped from the cabin. The Chilean committee dismissed this explanation, however, because the "plane" in question was not seen on primary radar. (As he observed the object, the Chilean pilot radioed an air traffic control along the coast and another at Santiago, both of which failed to observe a plane on radar. Nor was any aircraft in the vicinity cleared for a landing at Santiago.) Moreover, the plume of heated material does not fall as one would expect water or other material to do at an altitude of about 1km above the surface.
Other hypotheses included falling pieces of space debris, which might possibly release compressed gases at a lower atmosphere, as well as a bird, flying insect, drone, parachute, hang glider, or some kind of hoaxed video. Those hypotheses were ultimately dismissed.
The significance of this sighting is that it was made by credible Navy officers, lasted nearly 10 minutes, and involved observation in both the visible and infrared portions of the spectrum. While this falls far short of providing any evidence of aliens, it nonetheless is well documented and worthy of additional consideration, if only because the explanation might reveal some kind of new US military stealth technology.
After a two-year investigation on an unidentified flying object, the Chilean government has thrown its hands up and said 'We don't fuckin' know' and asked the public for their opinion.
The video footage, spanning 10-minutes, was examined by the Comité de Estudios de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos [Committee for the Study of Anomalous Air Phenomena] but was failed to be classified.
"We do not know what it was, but we do know what it was not," CEFAA Director General Ricardo Bermúdez told the Huffington Post.
The video was taken by a Chilean naval helicopter on November 11th, 2014 as it patrolled the country's west coast.
The object, flying at approximately 4,500-feet in altitude - same as the helicopter - was not picked up on any ground radar systems. All attempts of contact failed.

"In two instances it discharged some type of gas or liquid with a high thermal track or signal," the helicopter technician reported.
So guys, it's up to us. The Chilean government even says so. What in the name of fuck is this?
Featured image credit: Chilean navy I guess? Scared pilot who might have been 40 miles away from aliens? Whoever it was, thank you.
Comité de Estudios de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos (CEFAA), a Chilean government agency within the civil aeronautics directorate (the DGAC, roughly equivalent to the United States’ Federal Aviation Administration) released a video taken by a Navy helicopter of a mysterious craft in 2014.
The remarkable footage was captured by two naval officers on a helicopter-mounted Wescam infrared camera, typically used in covert, aerial surveillance. If you’ve seen Predator drone footage, you’ve seen these cameras in action. Captured west of Santiago at an altitude of approximately 4,500 feet (far lower than commercial airliners), the Unexplained Aerial Phenomenon (UAP, the new preferred term for UFOs) was first observed with the naked eye from an estimated distance of 35 to 40 miles.
The helicopter crew — a Navy captain and camera technician — captured 10 minutes of some of the most baffling and well-sourced video ever taken of a UFO.
Described by the captain as a “flat, elongated structure” with “two thermal spotlights-like discharges that did not coincide with the axis of motion,” the UFO can be seen discharging a chemical plume at approximately eight minutes into the video. The darker color indicates high heat, as captured by the infrared lens.
In addition to the video itself, the pilots and subsequent investigation provide a number of additional reasons to view this as perhaps the most consequential UFO sighting of the past decade. During the encounter, the pilot contacted two separate radar stations who were unable to track the object (their on-board radar also failed to pick up the UFO) and confirmed that there was no other air traffic in the area. Multiple attempts to contact the craft received no reply.

For the past two years CEFAA has been sharing the video with experts, including a nuclear chemist, astrophysicist and video and image experts.
So far the only mundane explanation offered came from the French UFO organization GEIPAN, whose video analysts proposed the possibility of a “medium-haul aircraft” dumping cabin wastewater before landing. The Chilean researchers and witnesses pointed out a number of reasons this would be unlikely, including the lack of radar corroboration, the unlikelihood of an experienced pilot failing to recognize an airplane and the lack of any nearby flight path scheduled for a landing at either of the two nearby airports.
“This has been one of the most important cases in my career as director of CEFAA because our Committee was at its best,” General Ricardo Bermúdez, former CEFAA director, told Kean. “The CEFAA is well regarded partly because there is full participation from the scientists of the academic world, the armed forces through their representatives, and the aeronautic personnel from the DGAC, including its Director. I am extremely pleased as well with the conclusion reached which is logical and unpretentious… the great majority of committee members agreed to call the subject in question a UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon) due to the number of highly researched reasons that it was unanimously agreed could not explain it.”
The public release of the footage should bring new scrutiny to this fascinating 2014 sighting. After years of patently phony sightings, drone fakery and inadequate evidence, 2017 opens with a UFO sighting worthy of our attention.
Col. Charles Halt (Retired) revisiting Rendlesham Forest last summer
“The Rendlesham Forest incident can truly be regarded as the ‘perfect storm’ of a UFO case”, explains former Ministry of Defence investigator Nick Pope in his introduction to a new book on the 36-year-old mystery.
John Hanson's latest book, The Halt Perspective, tells the story of the Rendlesham Incident through the accounts of Colonel Charles Halt
John Hanson’s 800-page study promises “the truth” about what happened outside RAF Woodbridge over two nights in late December 1980 – as told by one of the highest ranking military officers embroiled in the debate.
The Halt Perspective opens in 1940s Pittsburgh – birthplace of the future US airforce commander whose name would be synonymous with an audio tape recording of the ensuing investigation.
As deputy commander of the twin bases of Bentwaters and Woodbridge, Colonel Charles I. Halt prepared a memo for the MoD describing “unexplained lights”, and recorded what became known as the Halt Tape – a documented analysis of the nearby forest scene, where Halt saw more mysterious lights, like those witnessed by airmen Jim Penniston and John Burroughs two nights earlier.
In 2010, the retired colonel signed an affidavit claiming the encounter was extraterrestrial and had been covered up by the government.
Rendlesham Forest UFO trail
Over three-and-a-half decades, the mystery has been variously explained away as an elaborate prank, a military training exercise, or even the result of confusion caused by beams from Orford Ness lighthouse – in response to which, Mr Halt said: “I’m tired of all the disinformation out there. It seems that every time I turn around, I hear more nonsense or am accused of something.”
Mr Halt claims his initial memo on the unexplained lights was passed to the United States intelligence service without his knowledge, and that exaggerated UFO stories were deliberately spread to camouflage the truth.
Before the incident, labelled himself a sceptic. “I was a non-believer,” he said. “I never really gave it a second thought before the incident.
“I still didn’t say much publicly until people started putting out all kinds of garbage and nonsense – so much disinformation out there – and people bugging me about what happened.
Press cutting from the incident in 1980
“I finally decided, it’s time to tell the truth. I believe the objects that I saw at close quarter were extraterrestrial in origin, and that the security services of both the United States and the United Kingdom have attempted, both then and now, to subvert the significance of what occurred at Rendlesham Forest and RAF Bentwaters by the use of well-practiced methods of disinformation.”
Mr Halt’s own version of events has been called into question by his then commanding officer, Col Theodore (Ted) Conrad, in a series of statements to Dr David Clarke, a Sheffield Hallam University academic and the UFO adviser to the National Archives. Meanwhile, Mr Halt has cast his own doubts over the credibility of another witness, Larry Warren, to whom he directed open criticism at a public conference in Woodbridge last July.
The book’s author and publisher, Mr Hanson, a former West Midlands police officer turned UFO investigator, has also written 11 volumes on the history of UFO sightings from 1939-1990.
He called the The Halt Perspective an “in-depth look at possibly the greatest UFO event in modern British history”.
Did a UFO land in Rendlesham Forest?
“The truth, that needs no added sensationalism, is that the deputy commander of a US Air Force base in Suffolk, along with others, observed what they believe to be an extraterrestrial craft,” he added.
“In late December, 1980, there was a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights near Rendlesham Forest, which became linked with claims of UFO landings.
“What’s more, the events occurred just outside RAF Woodbridge, at that time used by the US Air Force – a very strategic military base at the height of the Cold War.”
Among the many UFO sightings reported across East Anglia in the years before and after the Rendlesham Incident, Mr Hanson documents a succession in north Essex between 1978 and 1990, with triangular objects also seen over Sizewell nuclear power station, near Leiston.
The Halt Perspective is available via hauntedskies.co.uk.
A mind boggling video from the Chilean navy showing a UFO making unusual movements and omitting plumes of an unknown substance has been released causing swathes of speculation.
CEFAA, the Chilean government agency which investigates UFOs, have been studying the footage for two years but have failed to identify the object seen in the country's airspace.
A naval helicopter gathered the footage on a routine daylight coastal patrol in November 2014 when the camera operator noticed a flying object ahead.
The Chilean navy helicopter tracks the UFO which was an estimated 35-40 miles away
The technician aimed the camera at it immediately and zoomed in with the infra red (IR) for better clarity.
The pilots tracked the UAP (Unidentified aerial phenomena) from around 35 to 40 miles away and tried several times to communicate with it but received no response.
They then reported the unknown traffic to two radar stations either side of the UFO but neither could detect it on radar despite the object being well in range of both.
However the stations were able to detect by the navy helicopters.
Air traffic controllers confirmed that no traffic, either civilian or military, had been reported in the area, and that no aircraft had been authorized to fly in the controlled air space where the object was located, the Huffington Post reported on Friday.
The flying object starts to omit a gas or liquid substance. The pilots tried to engage with it but received no response
Despite being able to see it the helicopter's on-board radar was unable to detect the object
The helicopter's on-board radar was also unable to detect the object.
The UFO, which was said to be the same size as a helicopter, omitted a long plume of gas or liquid before disappearing into the clouds.
General Ricardo Bermúdez, Director of CEFAA during the investigation, said: 'We do not know what it was, but we do not know what it was not.'
General Bermúdez, accompanied by nuclear chemist Mario Avila, a CEFAA scientific committee member, conducted interviews with the two officers at their Navy base.
'I was very impressed by these witnesses,' he said.
'They were highly trained professionals with many years experience, and they were absolutely certain that they could not explain what they saw.'
The footage was captured on a sophisticated Surveillance & Reconnaissance (SAR) camera in broad daylight.
And despite two years of investigations the CEFAA with its committees of military experts, technicians and academics from many disciplines couldn't explain the flying object.

Une vidéo exceptionnelle de neuf minutes de la Marine à propos d’un OVNI affichant un comportement très inhabituel, étudié par les autorités chiliennes depuis deux ans, est maintenant diffusée au public. Le CEFAA – l’agence gouvernementale chilienne qui enquête sur les ovnis, ou UAP (phénomènes aériens non identifiés), a été chargé de l’enquête. Situé au sein de la DGAC, l’équivalent de notre FAA mais sous la juridiction de l’armée de l’air chilienne, CEFAA dispose de comités d’experts militaires, de techniciens et d’universitaires dans de nombreuses disciplines. Aucun d’entre eux n’a pu expliquer l’étrange objet volé et capturé par deux officiers expérimentés de la Marine à partir d’un hélicoptère.
L’agence gouvernementale chilienne rend toujours ses cas publics lorsque l’enquête est terminée et reconnaît l’existence de l’UAP lorsqu’une affaire mérite une telle conclusion. Le général Ricardo Bermúdez, directeur du CEFAA au cours de l’enquête, m’a dit: «Nous ne savons pas ce que c’était, mais nous savons ce qui ne l’était pas.» Et «ce qui ne l’est pas» comprend une longue liste d’explications conventionnelles.
Voici ce qui s’est passé:
Le 11 novembre 2014, un hélicoptère de la Marine Chilienne (Airbus Cougar AS-532) effectuait une mission de patrouille de jour en volant vers le nord le long de la côte, à l’ouest de Santiago. À bord se trouvaient le pilote, un capitaine de la Marine (avec de nombreuses années d’expérience en vol) , et un technicien de la Marine qui a testé une caméra infrarouge MX-15 HD Forward Looking Infra Red (FLIR) de WESCAM, utilisée le plus souvent pour » De la reconnaissance « , selon le site Web du produit. L’avion volait à une altitude d’environ 4 500 pieds ( 1371, 6 m ) par un après-midi clair avec une visibilité horizontale illimitée, la température de l’air à cette altitude était de 10 ° C (50 ° F). Il y avait une base de nuage au-dessus à 10.000 pieds(3048m) , et une couche de stratocumulus, des nuages situés en-dessous. L’hélicoptère volait à environ 132 nœuds( 244,464 km/h -245 km/h environ).
À 13 h 52, pendant le tournage sur le terrain, le technicien a observé un étrange objet volant se situant à gauche sur l’océan. Bientôt les deux hommes l’ont observée à l’œil nu. Ils ont remarqué que la vitesse et l’altitude de l’objet semblaient être à peu près identiques à celles de l’hélicoptère et ont estimé que l’objet se trouvait à environ 35-40 km (55-65 km). Il voyageait W / NW, selon le capitaine. Le technicien a orienté la caméra sur l’objet immédiatement et a zoomé avec l’infrarouge (IR) pour une meilleure clarté.

Peu de temps après, le pilote a contacté deux stations radar – l’une à proximité de la côte et l’autre qu est le principal système de contrôle de la DGAC (Ground Radar primaire) à Santiago – pour signaler le trafic inconnu. Aucune station ne pouvait le détecter sur le radar, bien que les deux aient facilement pris l’hélicoptère. Les contrôleurs de la circulation aérienne ont confirmé qu’aucun trafic, civil ou militaire, n’avait été signalé dans la zone et qu’aucun aéronef n’avait été autorisé à voler dans l’espace aérien où l’objet était situé. Le radar embarqué était également incapable de détecter l’objet, et le radar de la caméra ne pouvait pas le verrouiller.
Le pilote a essayé à plusieurs reprises de communiquer avec l’UAP, en utilisant la bande passante multi-nationale, civile conçue à cet effet. Il n’a reçu aucune réponse. Le technicien a filmé l’objet pendant neuf minutes et douze secondes, principalement en IR. Ce capteur produit une vidéo en noir et blanc dans laquelle les tons noir, blanc et gris sont directement liés à la température. IR détecte la chaleur, et plus la matière filmée est chaude, plus elle apparaît sur l’image. Les officiers ont arrêté la caméra quand ils ont dû retourner à la base et l’objet a disparu derrière les nuages.
La Marine a immédiatement remis les images à la CEFAA, et le général Bermúdez, accompagné du chimiste nucléaire Mario Avila, membre du comité scientifique de la CEFAA, a interrogé les deux officiers de leur base navale. «J’ai été très impressionné par ces témoins, m’a dit Avila. «C’étaient des professionnels hautement qualifiés ayant de nombreuses années d’expérience et ils étaient absolument certains qu’ils ne pouvaient pas expliquer ce qu’ils voyaient.» Les deux délégués ont également fourni des rapports écrits à la base, comme cela est requis, par le CEFAA.
Le capitaine de la Marine a déclaré que l’objet était une «structure plate et allongée» avec «deux projecteurs thermiques « comme des décharges » qui ne coïncident pas avec l’axe du mouvement». Le technicien l’a décrit comme «blanc avec une forme semi-ovale dans l’axe horizontal. »
Mais il y a une composante supplémentaire qui rend ces images particulièrement unique: «Dans deux cas, il a déchargé un type de gaz ou de liquide avec une piste thermique ou un signal thermique élevé», a déclaré le technicien. Après le tournage pendant environ huit minutes, l’éjection étonnante d’un énorme panache d’un matériau très chaud est capturé sur la vidéo, traînant derrière l’objet. (Le panache s’est mélangé dans les nuages quand vu en HD.) Une autre éjection s’est produite des moments plus tard. Il est en effet bizarre de regarder cela sur la vidéo.
Credit photo/COURTESY CEFAA La vidéo représente deux lumières circulaires blanches connectées ou des points chauds, libérant beaucoup de chaleur (à gauche). Cette image faisait partie d’une analyse réalisée par l’astrophysicien Luis Barrera. «Envoltura» signifie «enveloppe».
Les trois extraits vidéo ( captures) sont dans l’ ordre chronologique :
Plus tard, j’inclus la vidéo complète de dix minutes. Notez que l’appareil passe parfois du mode IR en mode HD. Je recommande de regarder ces clips vidéo silencieux sur un grand écran. Le premier montre l’objet en mouvement. La caméra a capturé cela pendant environ huit minutes avant l’affichage spectaculaire dans la prochaine vidéo.

Au cours des deux années suivantes, au moins huit rencontres quelque peu litigieuses ont eu lieu avec des membres du comité scientifique de la CEFAA déconcerté, parmi les membres présents il y avait le général de l’armée de l’air actif qui dirige la DGAC. Selon le directeur des affaires internationales du CEFAA, José Lay, le ton général des réunions a été l’étonnement: «Qu’est-ce que c’est que ça? Que diable est cela ? »» Aucun accord ne pourrait être atteint pour expliquer la vidéo – les théories que l’on a proposé ont été exclu par les données.
7 Pieces of Ancient Art that Prove the “Gods” Were Here
Art can be interpreted in numerous ways but sometimes it’s just plain obvious what the artist wanted to express: aliens and UFOs.
1. The Alien Statues on Nuku Hiva Island
Stone stands the test of time. Because of this, we have the unique opportunity to see through the eyes of the ancients and, in the case of the Nuku Hiva sculptures, we can also gaze into the large, almond-shaped eyes of what could easily be described as a race of extraterrestrials.
Nuku Hiva is the largest island in the Marquesas Archipelago in French Polynesia. European explorers reached the archipelago in the late 16th century but by then, the islands had been inhabited for close to 2,000 years by native Polynesians. This culture had left behind a number of intriguing works of art depicting beings with bulbous heads, large eyes; their appearance is eerily reminiscent of the Grey alien form we’re accustomed to.
Some sculptures appear to represent hybrid beings exhibiting a mix of human and alien features. There are ufologists who claim there are two alien races carved in stone at Nuku Hiva: reptilian and grey.
Could these ancient works of art be a testament of extraterrestrial involvement? Did ancient aliens come into contact with the native populations, impacting them in such a way the humans felt compelled to carve their masks in stone?
Whatever the case may be, one more thing needs to be said: in the South Marquesan dialect, the island was called Te Fenua ‘Enata, meaning “The Land of Men.” Maybe as opposed to aliens?
2. The magnificent spaceships of the Anunnaki
Myths and legendary accounts from all over the world offer an abundance of clues regarding the presence of an extremely advanced race of aliens in ancient times, their influence still pervasive today.
In all likelihood, these beings helped erect massive monuments that have survived millennia, many more still waiting to be discovered.
Known by different names and considered gods, these creatures once crisscrossed Earth’s sky in spaceships, immortalized in various works of ancient art. Flight was not just a dream in antiquity, it was a reality, as evidenced by sculptures and engravings of rockets, vimanas, spaceports, landing pads. The Sanskrit epic Mahabharata describes in rich detail great battles that took place in the sky. The Mayan ruler Pakal’s tomb features a bas-relief showing the king in a seated position, controlling what looks to us like a flying machine.
Is it wise to see these artifacts only in a symbolic light? Do they not offer insight into the reality of ancient flight? What will we gain by ignoring the obvious?
3. The ancient star map at Mount Satan, Indonesia
In 1992, a geologist exploring a cave in Indonesia’s Devil Hills made a remarkable discovery. On top of a strange pile of rocks, C.A. Castillo saw a mysterious stone that looked like it had been carved by the hand of man.
On the surface of the mysterious stone, Castillo noticed a series of patterns that have yet to be explained. The engravings appear to show stars, the Sun, humanoid fingers and arrows pointing in multiple directions. Ufologists were quick to notice the symbols look very similar to one of our modern star maps, the golden disc aboard the Pioneer space probe. Could this ancient rock have served a similar purpose? Is it a map and if so, where does it lead to?
If the markings show a star system, it is not ours; this stone shows seven planets and a sun, arranged differently than the solar system we inhabit.
Even stranger is the fact that, whenever placed near electrical equipment, the stone starts exhibiting weird magnetic properties.
This puzzling artifact raises more questions than it answers. Who were its creators? Did they possess astronomical knowledge and if so, where did they get it from? We may never find the answers to these questions so we are left only with speculation.
4. The Ubaid Lizardmen
The Ubaid Lizardmen is the name given to a collection of 7,000 year-old statuettes found in Mesopotamia, the region widely considered as the cradle of civilization. All of these sculptures show an uncanny resemblance to modern depictions of reptilian humanoids.
Most of these artifacts were uncovered in an archaeological site called Tell Al’Ubaid, a small settlement in modern-day Iraq. This ancient community predates the nearby Sumerian citadel of Ur by more than 1,000 years.
The ancient Ubaid culture remains an enigma to this day. No one knows where they came from, how they looked or where they got the idea to craft representations of reptilian beings.
The strange figurines show both males and females in a variety of postures ranging from mothers breastfeeding to dignified characters holding staffs and exuding an air of dominance. This variety of representations has led open-minded archaeologists to conclude that the statues do not show intangible gods, but rather flesh-and-bone creatures that shared the same space with the humanoid Ubaids.
Their reptilian characteristics are plain to see and include elongated heads, serpentine eyes, scales and lizard-like snouts.
Are these statuettes proof of reptilian hybrid and human cohabitation in the land where civilization arose?
Not only the US, but Brazil has its own city, where he had wrecked amount testimony unknown flying object, which, as it turned out later, was a minor alien ship. On board were some unfamiliar creatures that Brazilian army began to gradually catch.
Direct witnesses of the events were Although strictly forbidden to talk about it, but leaked information that shocked the world. Silence of the Brazilian Army and the Brazilian government is more than suspicious.
The whole mysterious event that is very similar to the American city of Roswell, began to take place on the night of 12 to 13 January 1996 still over the territory of Alaska. There currently caught radar station the US Air Defense formation of several unidentified flying objects that moved in the amount of 18 km at speeds of more than 6000 kilometers per hour. One of the flying objects over Arizona, he began to suddenly slow down, and it turns out that this is not machine failure on landing. Experts therefore calculated in Alaska, where could this unknown flying object crash. It turned out that it will be somewhere near the Brazilian city of Varginha, and US authorities are thus informed about it, and the Brazilian government and the army. The Brazilian Army immediately upon receipt of this information, trying to find an unknown object crashed. Events, however, after a few days gained rapid momentum, and clandestine military operation was revealed. Later it turned out that the object crashed and escaped alien creatures who scared locals.
The hunt for aliens Since this event already have passed more than 20 years, but many people about it’ve never even heard of. The entire incident, however, is very famous in Brazil, and there are witnesses who have met face to face with the unknown creatures have escaped from a crashed alien ship. Any information, however, try the Brazilian government, together with the army ututlávat. What are the direct and circumstantial evidence that the Brazilian city of Varginha really crashed alien spaceship?
The whole event was a continuation January 20, 1996, ie 7 days after being informed about the crashed object Brazilian army air defense USA, and described it in detail Brazilian journalist Vitorio Pacaccini. In the morning, the local fire brigade received a report that several girls had seen in the woods very strange animal. Firefighters immediately went there and actually also caught the creature – a humanoid that smelled very strange. But after catching he died, and was handed over to the Brazilian army.
In the morning, they saw a strange creature, and three young men – fourteen Valquiria Fatima Silva and his sister Liliana sixteen, twenty-two, and her boyfriend, Xavier Andrade. According to their description of the creature was about one meter tall, had dark brown skin, large red eyes and head three elongated growths. Once the creature he saw, he fled. On the site after it left an unpleasant odor that resembled ammonia. On the same day, however, the police turned the other frightened people who have also seen strange creatures fishing around Varginha. However, the police could not intervene because they all took the Brazilian army, which immediately came on the reported sites of unknown creatures.
Mysterious events that are etched in the memory of local residents continued on the same day but in the evening. The army had closed and occupied the local hospital, and most of the hospital staff, but the patients had to leave the building. Those patients who had a hospital stay, were locking in hospital rooms. According to witnesses, then arrived in front of the hospital several trucks and cars with unknown contents and men with briefcases. The whole area hospital was closed for almost two full days. Later, it became apparent from the son of one of the doctors who stayed in the hospital, he revealed that his father was in the operating room under the supervision of the army dissected unknown humanoid creature that smelled foul. Army autopsy after all the equipment of the operating room took.
One alien reportedly survived Journalist Vittorio Pacaccini found that one alien police caught up alive, but later it signed on the death of a young police officer, as evidenced by police records. Police received reports that at the edge of the woods is an unknown creature. Since the place was already outside the area which concluded the army, the police came to the place. Creature they have found and surrounded, but he jumped over their heads, and ran into the open police car. One of the officers twenty-three heres Marco Eli did not want to shoot, and alien caught right in the car. The young policeman but then after a few days ill unknown disease, he ceased to feel his arms and legs, lost appetite, had a high temperature and his skin turned purple. The doctors failed to save him already, and they killed him by some unknown pathogen. While the police officer was
Announcements There are a large number of Egyptian artifacts found in Jerusalem that have been Maintained under total secrecy, due to its great level of strangeness and relation with the extraterrestrials.
Egyptologist William Petrie was the discoverer of these strange relics, according to William these objects could “Rewrite the history of ancient Egypt.” According to the news portal Intellihub News, the alien objects were found hidden in a hidden room behind a shelf in the house of the Egyptologist. Mr. Petrie had apparently discovered evidence of extraterrestrial life on our planet just before his death in 1942, but he made the decision to keep these discoveries secret in his house in Jerusalem.
It is known that the artifacts were taken by the Rockefeller Museum and feared the possibility that they will never be taught to the world. Dwarf beings represented in hieroglyphics The physical details represented in mummified bodies would seem to support the idea that “they were probably extraterrestrials” according to the researchers the skeletons have a stereotype of “very large and elongated heads with huge ocular cavities and very long arms.
All kinds of incredible objects representing electronic and mechanical devices, with very complex and advanced features that reveal a great technological creativity. A strange gold object with a transparent lid and some hieroglyphs was found by researchers, this object makes speculate that it is directly the representation of the model of an alien ship.
Advertisements Strange gold disk could be a navigation device Some experts believe that they could be advanced interstellar extraterrestrial navigation devices. The representations of extraterrestrial ships are also noticed in the stones, it is not the first time that the archaeologists find very old tables with very suggestive Egyptian inscriptions that make direct think that they are extraterrestrial ships or some very sophisticated machinery.
Helicopters and advanced ships represented. Some of the most incredible hieroglyphics seem to intend to represent some kind of aircraft, but some scientists attribute this relationship to a psychological phenomenon called pareidolia. However there is a very strong and well-argued belief that ancient alien civilizations had contact with human beings and directly influenced cultural levels or even the technological advance of human civilizations at a more primitive level of development, some experts confirm this theory Based on the precocity of Egyptian civilization, which would seem to firmly support the idea of extraterrestrial contact.
We must remind you that to these evidences the mysterious constructions of the wonders in the Egyptian architecture like the Pyramids of Giza are added to him, some experts and investigators affirmed that the pyramids “They are not of our planet”.
DID NOSTRADAMUS PREDICT THE BLACK KNIGHT SATELLITE?
According to a quote attributed to Nostradamus, it is believed the French prophet said that ‘Mankind will discover objects in space sent to us by the watchers.
For years the Black Knight satellite has caused a huge debate among people on social networks, blogs, and websites.
This “Artificial Satellite” has caused major media interest since the late 50′s, and it has become one of the most talked about objects in space.
First thought to be an Russian spy satellite, the Black Knight satellite has gripped the interest of millions worldwide.
As the shadow of the 20th century loomed large, enigmatic scientist Nikola Tesla claimed to have received the most amazing message from the black Satellite.
The signal was decoded and they found a diagram of epsilon bootes star system.
In 1973, science fiction author Duncan Lunan wrote an article for Spaceflight Magazine that speculated that a 13,000-year-old alien object in orbit around the Moon could have been responsible for these otherworldly echoes.
Footage Of Marine Biologists Encountering A Huge Glowing Sea Creature
Pyrosomes are sometimes referred to as the unicorns of the sea because their habits are so mysterious and they are so difficult to find that they have achieved something of a mythical status for marine biologists which is why this new video of a glowing pyrosome is causing such a stir in scientific communities.
RARE GLOWING SEA CREATURE CAPTURED ON CAMERA.
Many scientists who specialize in marine life believe pyrosomes to be among a fascinating creatures to swim beneath the depths of the world’s oceans and it’s easy to see why.
Pyrosomes are not individual creatures but are actually colonies made up of thousands of clones of the same creature. These clonal colonies are sometimes incredibly small, but larger pyrosomes can grow to an astonishing sixty feet in length. No matter what the size, the colonies always adopt a bell-like shape which opens at one end. In the case of larger specimens, this opening can be large enough for an adult human being to fit comfortably inside.
Despite their formidable size, pyrosomes are fairly harmless filter feeders that sustain themselves by ingesting a huge volume of sea water containing the plankton they need for nourishment. After their bodies filter the plankton, they excrete the waste water through their natural opening which also serves the purpose of pushing the body of the pyrosome forward using jet propulsion. This process takes a long period of time which means that pyrosomes move incredibly slowly, according to R.R Helm.
But perhaps the most interesting thing about pyrosomes is the fact that they are bioluminescent. According to Helm, when the clonal colonies perceive a source of light or touch another colony they will respond by creating a bright blue-green light of their own. It appears as though they emit this light to attract other colonies, or perhaps even to communicate with them. Sailors have reported seeing dozens of illuminated pyrosomes swimming together underneath the surface of the ocean on calm nights.
Het Witte Huis heeft een plan in de steigers gezet om onze aarde voor te bereiden op een eventuele inslag van een meteoriet. Het heeft daarover deze week een rapport gepubliceerd. Daaraan werkten verscheidene organisaties mee, onder meer de NASA en het Amerikaanse ministerie van Defensie.
De meteoriet die in 2013 ontplofte boven Chelyabinsk in Rusland en waarbij naar schatting 400 mensen gewond raakten, deed de VS een versnelling hoger schakelen. In Rusland was in 1908 ook al eens een meteoriet ontploft net boven de grond in Tunguska, Siberië en daarbij was meer dan 2.000 vierkante kilometer bos verwoest. Hoewel een inslag beschouwd wordt als weinig waarschijnlijk, maar met een potentieel gigantische impact, werd er werk gemaakt van een uitgebreide strategie die de VS en bij uitbreiding de hele aarde moet beschermen mocht het ooit zo ver komen.
Doorsnede Er was overigens al nuttig werk geleverd. In 1990 vroeg het Amerikaanse congres de NASA al om alle potentieel gevaarlijke asteroïden in kaart te brengen. Daaronder werden alle objecten gezien met een doorsnede van groter dan 140 meter. En president Obama startte ook al een programma om astronauten naar een asteroïde te brengen in een oefening om die van koers te doen wijzigen.
Een van de belangrijkste factoren om te bepalen hoe we zullen reageren volgens het nieuwe rapport, is hoeveel tijd we hebben tot een potentiële meteoriet inslaat: dat kan gaan van een dag tot ettelijke decennia. Het eerste doel van het plan zal dan ook het bepalen zijn van hoe we de detectie van gevaar kunnen verbeteren en potentieel gevaarlijke asteroïden beter kunnen volgen.
Baan Een tweede doel is methodes te ontwikkelen om de baan van een gevaarlijke asteroïde te veranderen, zodat die onschadelijk wordt voor onze aarde. Verder komen ook het ontwikkelen van noodprocedures aan bod, wat te doen mocht een asteroïde ondanks alles tóch inslaan en hoe we van zo een inslag kunnen herstellen. Er moet ook een commandostructuur komen en internationale samenwerking, zo staat verder in het rapport van het Witte Huis te lezen.
De Amerikaanse overheid heeft al beloofd om een update te geven over de stand van zaken om de drie jaar.
Wetenschappers hebben na intensief onderzoek eindelijk de herkomst achterhaald van een mysterieus radiosignaal uit de ruimte dat tien jaar geleden voor de eerste keer werd opgevangen. Het buitenaardse bliepje blijkt, zo heeft een team internationale experts vastgesteld, afkomstig van een dwergsterrenstelsel dat 3 miljard lichtjaren van de aarde is verwijderd. Een ruimtesonde naar die locatie sturen is vooralsnog onmogelijk, omdat één lichtjaar al 9,5 biljoen kilometer (9.500.000.000.000) is.
Sterrenkundigen ging er in eerste instantie van uit dat het ultrakorte radiosignaaltje - het duurt maar drieduizendste van een seconde - uit de Melkweg afkomstig was waar ook de aarde deel van uitmaakt. En anders een sterrenstelsel vlak daarnaast. Wetenschappers die zijn verbonden aan de vooraanstaande Cornell-universiteit in Amerika hebben recent vastgesteld dat het bliepje met de werknaam FRB121102 het resultaat is van energie die moet zijn vrijgekomen in het dwergsterrenstelsel dat 99 procent kleiner is dan de Melkweg.
FRB121102 werd ontdekt in 2007 met een extreem geavanceerde radiotelescoop: een soort schotelantenne die zelfs de allerkleinste signalen uit het heelal kan opvangen. Momenteel zijn 18 van die FRB's die worden onderzocht, maar die zijn volgens de experts allemaal waargenomen met niet-officiële en vrij onnauwkeurige telescopen. "Radiosignaal FRB121102 kon echter wel worden herleid", aldus de wetenschappers die hun ontdekking hebben gepubliceerd in het vakblad Nature.
Volgens de astronomen was het niet eenvoudig om het petieterig bliepje te traceren. Het wordt namelijk maar sporadisch 'uitgezonden', waardoor ernaar zoeken zeer lastig is. "We wisten de globale plek en zijn daar vervolgens minstens 50 uur lang gaan peilen in de hoop dat we het weer zouden horen. Dat het lukte is puur geluk. Het was immers zoeken naar een de allerkleinste speld is de allergrootste hooiberg."
Chileense marine geeft opzienbarende beelden van UFO vrij
De Chileense marine heeft videobeelden vrijgegeven van een UFO die vreemde manoeuvres uithaalt.
Het voorval wordt al twee jaar bestudeerd door de Chileense autoriteiten, zo schrijft de Huffington Post.
Vele legerdeskundigen, technici en wetenschappers hebben zich al over het filmpje gebogen, maar geen van hen heeft een verklaring voor het vreemde vliegende object dat door twee officieren werd vastgelegd vanuit een helikopter.
Oceaan
“We weten niet wat het is, maar we weten wel wat het niet is,” zei generaal Ricardo Bermúdez, oud-hoofd van de CEFAA, het Chileense agentschap dat UFO’s onderzoekt.
Op 11 november 2014 vloog een helikopter van de Chileense marine ten westen van Santiago langs de kust toen de bemanning een vreemd object zag vliegen boven de oceaan.
Generaal Bermúdez (CEFAA)
Het object, dat zich op een afstand van zo’n 60 kilometer bevond, werd vastgelegd met infraroodapparatuur aan boord van de helikopter.
Communiceren
Er werd contact opgenomen met twee radarstations, maar die zagen het object niet op de radar verschijnen. Ook de radar aan boord van de helikopter pikte het object niet op.
Luchtverkeersleiders bevestigden dat er op dat moment verder geen vliegtuigen in het gebied vlogen. Er waren ook geen weerballonnen in de regio.
De piloot probeerde meerdere keren te communiceren met de UFO, maar kreeg geen antwoord.
Ovaalvormige structuur
“Dit object is waargenomen door getrainde professionals met vele jaren ervaring,” zei Bermúdez. “Ze konden niet verklaren wat ze hadden gezien.”
Het ging om een ‘witte, ovaalvormige structuur’ met twee schijnwerpers. Tot twee keer toe kwam er een soort gas of vloeistof uit het object.
“Dit is één van de belangrijkste cases geweest in mijn carrière als directeur van de CEFAA,” zei generaal Bermúdez, die in december met pensioen ging.
Bekijk hieronder de beelden van het vreemde object:
Internet in de ban van gevleugelde ‘demon’ in Arizona
Een foto van een ‘demonische’ verschijning is een regelrechte hit op internet.
Zondag plaatste Facebookgebruiker Richard Christianson een foto van iets wat lijkt op een duistere figuur met vleugels.
De foto, gemaakt in Arizona, toont een soort gevleugelde verschijning met op het hoofd hoorntjes, schrijft het AD. De verschijning zou net zo groot zijn als een huis.
Demon
“Wat zien jullie in deze foto? Iemand?” vroeg Christianson. Binnen de kortste keren werd de foto tienduizenden keren gedeeld.
Hoewel sommigen menen dat de maker een ‘demon’ heeft vastgelegd, denken anderen dat het beeld is gefotoshopt. Weer anderen geven de belichting de schuld.
Facebookgebruiker Danielle Holland zei dat de maker van de foto overdag nog eens dezelfde foto moet maken.
Palmboom
Iemand anders zei dat de vreemde figuur mogelijk een verwaaide palmboom is.
“Het is een palmboom,” schreef Gabriella Swedin. “Als je links kijkt kun je er nog één zien.”
Sommigen linken de verschijning aan de apocalyps. “Het bewijs dat het einde der tijden nadert,” schreef iemand.
Navy Releases Video Showing A UFO Spraying Chemicals Into Atmosphere
A Navy helicopter captured a video of a mysterious craft in 2014. The video was released by Comité de Estudios de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos (CEFAA), a government-based agency in Chile within the civil aeronautics directorate, DGAC – about the same to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration.
The naval officers captured the strange craft through a helicopter-mounted Wescam infrared camera, usually used for covert, aerial surveillance. These types of cameras are taken into action in Predator drone footage. The Unexplained Aerial Phenomenon (UAP) or popularly known as UFO, was first noticed by the naked eye from around 35 to 40 miles. Taken west of Santiago at an altitude of about 4,500 feet – far lower than commercial airliners – the video probably caught the most baffling and the well-sourced video ever taken of a UFO.
The captain described the object in question as a flat, elongated structure with chemical plume discharges at around eight minutes into the video. Captured by the infrared lens, the darker color indicates high heat.
The pilot contacted two separate radar stations during the encounter. The radar stations, however, reportedly failed to track the object as their onboard radar was unable to pick up the unidentified flying object. They further confirmed that there was no other air traffic in the area where the UFO was observed.
The CEFAA shared the video to experts, including astrophysicist, nuclear chemist, and image and video experts. Video analysts of French UFO organization GEIPAN offered a possibility of a medium-haul craft dumping cabin wastewater before landing.
However, Chilean witnesses and researchers have not accepted this mundane explanation. They pointed out three reasons; first, the lack of radar corroboration, second, the unlikelihood of an experienced pilot to identify an airplane, and third, the absent of nearby flight path for a landing at the two nearby airports.
Bright UFO caught on tape over Kampinos Forest, Poland 1-Jan-2017
Check out this interesting footage of a huge unidentified flying object that was hovering in the sky above Kampinos Forest, Poland. This was filmed on 1st January 2017.
This interesting photo of a bright apparition in the sky above Brooklyn church in New York was filmed from a moving bus. This happened in early January 2017.
Al een decennium lang zijn astronomen in de ban van een raadselachtig fenomeen uit het heelal: korte radioflitsen aan de hemel. Wetenschappers hebben nu de herkomst ervan ontdekt. Het gaat om een klein sterrenstelsel op 3 miljard lichtjaren afstand, schrijven ze in het vakblad Nature. Maar wat er precies flitst, is nog niet duidelijk.
De zogenaamde 'fast radio bursts' (of snelle radioflitsen, FRB's) werden voor het eerst ontdekt in 2007. Sindsdien zijn er nog achttien waargenomen, maar slechts eentje - waargenomen in 2012 in het Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico - deed zich talloze keren voor.
De flitsen duren een duizendste van een seconde en kunnen in die tijd evenveel energie uitstoten als de zon in 10.000 jaar. De onderzoekers schatten dat er elke tien seconden een dergelijke uitbarsting plaatsvindt. Maar omdat je op het juiste moment met een radiotelescoop in de juiste richting moet kijken, zijn er nog maar heel weinig waargenomen.
"We weten nu dat deze uitbarsting afkomstig is van een klein, zwak sterrenstelsel op meer dan 3 miljard lichtjaren van de aarde", zeggen de onderzoekers. De ontdekking biedt geen antwoord op de vraag wat de flitsen juist veroorzaakt.
EEN LANGE STROOM VAN ONVERKLAARBARE OBJECTEN OP MARS ( VIDEO )
Hoelang zou NASA het nog vol kunnen houden door simpelweg nergens op te reageren en alle vreemde vondsten op Mars volkomen naast zich neer te leggen?
De eigen camera’s van de organisatie leggen de ene na de andere bizarre ontdekking vast op beeld en de wereld doet net alsof het niet bestaat.
Bij het Youtube kanaal Paranormal Crucible zijn ze nogal gespecialiseerd in het beter zichtbaar maken van foto’s die door de NASA karretjes op Mars zijn genomen.
Vaak krijg je dan met het aanbrengen van wat kleur en contrast opeens een veel duidelijker beeld van wat iets zou kunnen zijn.
Zoals het volgende object wat vreemd uitsteekt in het anders vlakke Mars-landschap. In alle gevallen geldt, wat het ook moge zijn, duidelijk is dat we hier te maken hebben met iets dat door intelligente wezens is gemaakt en niet iets dat spontaan is ontstaan in de natuur.
Door de jaren heen zijn er talloze voorbeelden gevonden van mogelijke restanten van dieren, zoals de volgende:
Niet alleen restanten van dieren, maar ook iets dat verdacht veel lijkt op een soort skelet van een mens-achtige:
Of iets dat lijkt op een soort buitenaardse schedel:
Wat te denken van het volgende object dat veel lijkt op een pistool zoals wij die op aarde hebben en op geen enkele manier doet denken aan iets dat natuurlijk is gevormd.
En nog steeds komt NASA ermee weg door simpelweg alles wat er op Mars wordt gevonden te negeren.
Paranormal Crucible heeft een overzicht gemaakt van de meest opmerkelijke vondsten van het afgelopen jaar. Daarnaast zijn er natuurlijk de jaren daarvoor nog talloze ontdekkingen gedaan.
USS Enterprise UFO Seen Near Earths Sun On NASA Images Jan 3, 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Jan 3, 2017 Location of sighting: Earths Sun This UFO was near the sun this week and something amazing about it is that not only is it huge, but it has a visible steam of energy leaving its bottom. The craft silhouette looks similar to the side view of the USS Enterprise. This ship is as big as Earths moon. Compare the size of it with the size of the radius of the sun...I'm being conservative here. The size indicates its several times bigger than Earth, but I believe that the distance is closer to the SOHO satellite and that his craft is being used to harvest a rare energy particle from our sun. Awesome catch byTheWatcher252 of Youtube. Scott C. Waring
This alien hand seems impossible, but X-rays confirm that real bones are below the skin. Humans have three bones in each finger area, yet this has 6 bones, so we know its not human. DNA results cannot tell us its an alien since we have no aliens to compare it too. Instead DNA results will only say the DNA doesn't match any known species. Sure there is a skull, but it looks to be the size of an infant if its the same species as the hand, however several different kinds of aliens may have been working together and died in the Cusco cave tunnel where it was found.
Scott C. Waring
News states:
Though easy, initially, to call fake, a Hollywood prop or whatever, the above artifact was seen by us in person recently in Cusco Peru. It was presented to us, along with a small mummified elongated humanoid skull and body by a local person.
Above is the skull; it was x-rayed and examined by physicians here in Cusco who stated that it clearly was not a human, but was a life form of some kind. The skull is composed of bone and skin of some sort. Plans are in the works for radiocarbon and DNA testing early in 2017 in the US.
X rays of the “hand” show that each of the 3 fingers has 6 bones, while a human hand has 3. Once again, as with the skull, physicians in Cusco determined that clearly this is not the hand of a human, but is made up of bone and skin. They were unable to determine what kind of life form it is, or was.
The detailed photo of one of the ends of the fingers, seen above, shows the skin as well as a fingernail which is surprisingly human looking. The keeper of this and other artifacts does not want to sell them, he simply wants to know what they are.
And again, another x-ray of the ends of the fingers shows that under the skin there are well defined bones, looking quite mammalian. The artifacts were found in a secret location, in a tunnel in the southern desert of Peru; more details and perhaps artifacts will be discussed when available.
This UFO is made of energy, and has been seen around the world, but most notedly over the mountains of Colorado and was once seen by tens of thousands of people over the holiest place on Earth...dome of rock. They can change shape, and in our ancient history, these UFOs have been called angels when they appeared before people, because they can take any form, but when they do, they usually have a glowing aura around them. The holy place of Dome of Rock...has a story about an angle that ascended into heaven at that very place...just like the glowing UFO in the video below from Argentina. Angel or alien...it can be both at the same time. Scott C. Waring.
News states:
A family camping at El Chocón on the evening of Saturday, December 31 (2016) claims having seen a UFO floating over the lake. The video they recorded shows a round light that moves and changes shape. Dario Carrizo, one of the people at the site, said that his wife and a friend recorded a light in the sky for 25 minutes. It moved quickly and changed sizes. They believe it was an unidentified flying object. "We spent the evening in a rough campground beyond the dam. That's where we saw the light, and it caught our attention, as it was very bright and moved all the time. It was quite striking," Carrizo explained. He further added that the cellphone shows a spinning object, but this detail cannon be made out clearly on YouTube. He ended by saying that it was a "lovely sight" for the adults, but no so much for the children, who "refused to go to sleep alone."
Experts baffled by 'crashed UFO' discovered at bottom of sea
A MYSTERIOUS object found beneath the waves has had experts speculating whether they have discovered a crashed UFO.
By Douglas Patientµ
The huge 200ft-wide Baltic Sea Anomaly appears to be formed of pieces of metal and cuts out electrical equipment when you get too close.
Sitting at the bottom of the ocean, a mind-boggling 300ft down, it has had experts scratching their heads since they found it back in 2012.
Now explorers are set to head back to the object to finally work out what it is.
Swedish explorer Peter Lindberg and his Ocean X team found the "crash site" while diving to explore a shipwreck.
YOUTUBE/OCEANX/MYSTERY HISTORY
INCREDIBLE: The explorers could not believe what they discovered on the ocean floor
“It could be something really awesome that we’ve found”
Denis Asberg
Denis Asberg, who was in the search team, told Swedish TV: “There is a mountain, It could be 20-25 metres tall with a canyon in the middle, and below it there is a lot of loose rocks.
“We were really surprised and puzzled. We were thinking what is it that we have found here.
“We contacted geologists, marine biologists and when they said they had never seen anything like this, of course more thoughts were triggered. It could be something really awesome that we’ve found.”

ALIEN: The structure appears to be a crashed UFO
There has been an explosion of theories as to what the object actually is.
Some say it is a WW2 device designed to disable submarines, a battleship gun turret or – of course – an alien spaceship.
And Daily Star Online revealed a handy guide of what to do if – or indeed when – aliens invade Earth.
Stefan Hogerborn, a professional diver with Ocean X, said: “Anything electric out there, and the satellite phone as well, stopped working when we were above the object, then when we got away about 200 metres, it turned on again.”
Geologist Steve Weiner believes the structure is not natural and is made of “metals which nature could not reproduce itself”.
It is nearly 300ft below the surface and measures 26ft tall.

MYSTERY: The formation is made of metal, scientists claim
Mr Lindberg said: “I have been the biggest sceptic, I was kind of prepared for finding just stone. For me it has been an amazing experience.
“I think it is very odd in its shape. It is tough to give an explanation as to what it might be exactly, since different scientists have many different theories.
“Whatever it is, it is something we do not usually find in nature sitting in the dark cold depths of the Baltic Sea.”
Ocean X is expected to return to the wreck to continue investigating the discovery.
The telescope Clyde Tombaugh used when he first saw Pluto.
Lowell Observatory
After January 12, anyone going through Lowell Observatory will not be able to see the telescope Clyde Tombaugh used to discover Pluto. The telescope is being removed temporarily for a year-long renovation project on the instrument.
The telescope may be a popular instrument to visit at the observatory, but it is in need of some major work to repair and restore it. The dome of the telescope is rotting, some parts have worn out, and several areas need to be cleaned, stripped, and repainted. Lowell’s technical staff will make sure all these issues are addressed and will also clean and repair the control mechanisms and photographic plate holders, among other accessories.
The renovation, which will cost $155,000, will both restore and preserve the 1920’s era telescope.
The Pluto Telescope is designed specifically for taking pictures of space objects and was used to study comets, asteroids, and stars with detectable proper motions, as well as the famous Pluto discovery in 1930 by Tombaugh.
“Like the Alvan Clark refractor across campus, the Pluto Discovery Telescope is a national treasure,” said Lowell Director Jeff Hall in a press release. “People come to Lowell from all over the world to see these historic telescopes, and I’m so pleased to see them restored and preserved for decades to come.”
The money for the renovation was raised through crowdsourcing, private donations, and a grant from Crystal Trust.
“We can’t undertake major projects like this without external support, and we’re grateful to everyone who has donated to make this happen,” Hall said.
Orionnevel geeft zijn geheimen prijs op nieuwe foto
Caroline Kraaijvanger
De foto onthult wat de nevel en zijn directe omgeving achter dikke wolken stof allemaal voor ons verborgen houden.
Je ziet de bekende Orionnevel helemaal links op de foto. De nevel maakt deel uit van de moleculaire wolk Orion A. Dit is een reusachtige moleculaire wolk die relatief dicht bij de aarde in de buurt staat: Orion A is zo’n 1350 lichtjaar van ons verwijderd. Orion A maakt op zijn beurt – samen met de moleculaire wolk Orion B – weer deel uit van het Orion Molecular Cloud Complex.
Hoge resolutie Op de nieuwe foto is de reusachtige moleculaire wolk in zijn geheel en in zeer hoge resolutie te zien. De foto is een montage van opnamen, gemaakt door de telescoop VISTA van de ESO-sterrenwacht in Chili. Deze infraroodtelescoop kijkt dwars door het stof van de moleculaire wolk heen en onthult wat er achter dat stof allemaal schuilgaat. We zien bijvoorbeeld tal van jonge sterren. Maar ook schijven van materie waaruit weer nieuwe sterren kunnen ontstaan en nevelflarden die in verband kunnen worden gebracht met pasgeboren sterren en kleine sterrenhopen.
Op deze foto zie je tal van jonge sterren en andere objecten die normaliter schuilgaan achter het stof.

Geboorte van een ster Door diep in het stof van deze moleculaire wolk te turen, hopen onderzoekers meer te weten te komen over hoe sterren in dergelijke moleculaire wolken tot stand komen. Ook hopen ze meer inzicht te krijgen in de ontwikkeling van sterren van verschillende massa’s.
Hier zie je de hoogtepunten van de nieuwe infraroodopname van Orion A. Als je op die infraroodopname inzoomt, zijn tal van merkwaardige structuren te zien, waaronder donkere stofwolken, kleine afbeeldingen van zeer verre sterrenstelsels en rode straalstromen van piepjonge sterren.

Tijdens het bestuderen van de Orion-regio hebben astronomen verschillende bekende objecten in detail bekeken. Maar ze hebben ook nieuwe objecten ontdekt, waaronder vijf potentiële jonge stellaire objecten en tien mogelijke clusters van sterrenstelsels.
Astronomen weten mysterieuze snelle radioflitsen eindelijk thuis te brengen
Caroline Kraaijvanger
De flitsen vinden hun oorsprong in een sterrenstelsel hier heel, heel ver vandaan, zo blijkt uit nieuw onderzoek.
Zo’n tien jaar geleden spotten wetenschappers er voor het eerst eentje: een fast radio burst (FRB) oftewel een snelle radioflits. Wanneer zo’n snelle radioflits – die hooguit enkele milliseconden duurt – ontstaat, komt een enorme hoeveelheid energie vrij.
Herhaling Hoe een FRB precies ontstaat, is tot op de dag van vandaag onduidelijk. Sommige onderzoekers dachten dat zo’n snelle radioflits ontstond tijdens een botsing van neutronensterren. En daarmee namen deze onderzoekers automatisch aan dat zo’n radioflits een eenmalige gebeurtenis was. Die theorie kwam op losse schroeven te staan, toen astronomen op FRB 121102 stuitten. Deze radioflits gaf namelijk meerdere malen acte de présence. De radioflits ging de boeken in als de eerste zichzelf herhalende radioflits en heeft inmiddels al zo’n zeventien keer van zich laten horen. De theorie dat een radioflits ontstaat tijdens een eenmalige catastrofale gebeurtenis lijkt daarmee van tafel te zijn geveegd.
Dwergsterrenstelsel En nu krijgt het onderzoek naar FRB 121102 opnieuw een staartje: wetenschappers hebben de exacte locatie vastgesteld van de snelle radioflits. En wat blijkt? De radioflits vindt zijn oorsprong in een dwergsterrenstelsel op z’n drie miljard lichtjaar afstand. We kunnen nu dus met 100 procent zekerheid zeggen dat het een extragalactisch verschijnsel is. “We zijn de eersten die aantonen dat dit een kosmologisch fenomeen is,” vertelt onderzoeker Casey Law. “Het is dus niet iets in onze achtertuin. En we zijn de eersten die zien waar het ontstaat: in een klein sterrenstelsel. En dat is in mijn optiek heel verrassend.” Onderzoeker Shriharsh Tendulkar is het daar mee eens. “Men zou verwachten dat de meest snelle radioflitsen ontstaan in grote sterrenstelsels met het grootste aantal sterren en neutronensterren (resten van zware sterren).”
Hoe de radioflitsen precies ontstaan, blijft voor nu gissen. Wellicht zijn ze afkomstig van het ineengestorte overblijfsel van een zware ster. Een andere optie is dat ze gegenereerd worden in de nabijheid van een zwart gat dat gas uit zijn omgeving opslokt. Meer onderzoek zal uit moeten wijzen hoe de FRB’s precies ontstaan. Onderzoekers zullen daarvoor een beroep moeten doen op de beste radio-, optische, röntgen- en gammatelescopen die voorhanden zijn.
Tot wel 500 meter hoge penitenten ontdekt op Pluto
Caroline Kraaijvanger
Voor het eerst is er overtuigend bewijs dat deze ijzige pieken ook op andere hemellichamen dan de aarde voorkomen.
Penitenten zijn uit sneeuw of ijs opgebouwde pieken. Je vindt ze op grote hoogte, bijvoorbeeld in de Andes. De pieken – die allemaal in dezelfde richting wijzen – kunnen op aarde wel enkele meters hoog worden.
EUROPA
Onderzoekers vermoeden dat penitenten ook te vinden zijn op Jupiters maan Europa. Maar het bewijs daarvoor is lang niet zo overtuigend als het bewijs dat nu wordt aangevoerd voor het bestaan van penitenten op Pluto.
Pluto Nieuw onderzoek toont nu aan dat deze penitenten geen typisch aards verschijnsel zijn. We treffen ze namelijk ook aan op Pluto, zo is in het blad Nature te lezen. Het is voor het eerst dat er overtuigend bewijs is gevonden dat penitenten ook op plaatsen buiten de aarde voorkomen (zie kader).
Slangenhuid In september 2015 gaf NASA onderstaande foto vrij. We zien een heel bijzonder landschap op Pluto dat doet denken aan een slangenhuid: er zijn tal van ‘schubben’ zichtbaar die tot wel 500 meter hoog zijn en enkele kilometers uit elkaar liggen. Lang was onduidelijk hoe deze ‘slangenhuid’ was ontstaan. Maar onderzoekers stellen nu dat de ‘schubben’ penitenten zijn.
Je ziet hier Pluto’s ‘slangenhuid’, te vinden in een gebied dat informeel Tartarus Dorsa wordt genoemd.
Afbeelding: NASA / JHUAPL / SwRI.
Modellen en simulaties Ze trekken die conclusie onder meer op basis van modellen. Deze modellen tonen aan dat Pluto over alle ingrediënten en omstandigheden beschikt die nodig zijn om penitenten te laten ontstaan. Met behulp van computersimulaties gingen de onderzoekers bovendien na hoe penitenten op Pluto er dan uit zouden zien. En de gesimuleerde penitenten hebben exact dezelfde omvang als de ijzige ‘schubben’ die we op de foto’s van New Horizons zien. Ook de afstand tussen de gesimuleerde penitenten, hun oriëntatie en de leeftijd van de gesimuleerde penitenten komt keurig overeen met wat we op Pluto zien.
Zowel de aarde als Pluto beschikt dus hoogstwaarschijnlijk over penitenten. Best opmerkelijk als je bedenkt dat de verschillen tussen onze planeet en de dwergplaneet heel groot zijn. Zo is het op Pluto veel kouder, is de atmosfeer er dunner, het zonlicht minder sterk en bestaat sneeuw en ijs op het oppervlak van Pluto uit methaan en stikstof in plaats van water. En toch gelden hier dezelfde natuurwetten en kunnen dus ook hier penitenten ontstaan. En onderzoekers verwachten – op basis van dit onderzoek – dat penitenten op nog veel meer plekken in het zonnestelsel en zelfs buiten ons zonnestelsel te vinden zijn. “Zolang de omstandigheden maar goed zijn,” stelt onderzoeker John Moores. Zo wijst de ontdekking erop dat een atmosfeer nodig is om penitenten te laten ontstaan. “En dat kan verklaren waarom ze niet eerder zijn waargenomen op atmosfeerloze ijzige satellieten en dwergplaneten.”
We gaan voor het eerst een ijzeren planetoïde bezoeken!
Caroline Kraaijvanger
NASA heeft twee prachtige ruimtemissies aangekondigd: eentje naar een ijzeren planetoïde en eentje naar Jupiters Trojanen.
De missies – die de namen Lucy en Psyche dragen – moeten meer inzicht geven in hoe het er in de kinderjaren van ons zonnestelsel aan toeging. Lucy moet al in 2021 gelanceerd worden en voert naar de nog vrij mysterieuze Trojanen van Jupiter. “Terwijl Psyche een unieke ijzeren planetoïde zal bestuderen die nog nooit eerder bezocht is,” zo vertelt Thomas Zurbuchen namens NASA.
Psyche Zoals de naam al doet vermoeden, bezoekt Psyche de planetoïde 16 Psyche. Deze bijzonder grote planetoïde – met een diameter van zo’n 210 kilometer – bevindt zich in de planetoïdengordel tussen Mars en Jupiter en is zo’n drie keer verder van de zon verwijderd dan de aarde. In tegenstelling tot de meeste planetoïden is 16 Psyche niet opgebouwd uit steen of ijs. In plaats daarvan bestaat de planetoïde – net als de kern van de aarde – voornamelijk uit ijzer en nikkel. Astronomen sluiten dan ook niet uit dat 16 Psyche een restant is van een planeet die ongeveer net zo groot was als Mars, maar miljarden jaren geleden zijn rotsachtige buitenlaag tijdens gewelddadige botsingen met andere hemellichamen is kwijtgeraakt. “Dit biedt ons de kans om een nieuw type wereld te bestuderen – niet eentje van steen of ijs, maar van metaal,” stelt onderzoeker Lindy Elkins-Tanton. “Het is de enige manier waarop mensen ooit een kern kunnen bezoeken.” Psyche zou in oktober 2023 gelanceerd moeten worden en vervolgens in 2030 bij de planetoïde arriveren.
Een artistieke impressie van de twee ruimtemissies. Links zie je Lucy die zich ophoudt bij Euryabtes, één van de Trojanen van Jupiter. Rechts zie je Psyche en een stukje van 16 Psyche.

Lucy Lucy kiest naar verwachting twee jaar eerder – in 2021 – het luchtruim. Tussen 2027 en 2033 zal Lucy zes Trojanen van Jupiter bestuderen. Dit zijn planetoïden die in dezelfde baan als Jupiter draaien. Ze bewegen op 60 graden boogafstand met de planeet mee en komen dus nooit met de gasreus in botsing. Aangenomen wordt dat de Trojanen resten zijn uit een veel vroeger stadium in de geschiedenis van het zonnestelsel. En wellicht zagen ze ver voorbij de huidige baan van Jupiter het levenslicht. “Dit is een unieke kans,” vindt onderzoeker Harold F. Levison. “Omdat de Trojanen restanten zijn van oermateriaal waaruit de buitenste planeten zijn opgebouwd, bevatten ze aanwijzingen die ons kunnen helpen om de geschiedenis van het zonnestelsel te ontrafelen
Uiteindelijk moeten Psyche en Lucy zo – in aanvulling op andere ruimtemissies – meer inzicht geven in hoe de zon en planeten ontstonden en door de tijd heen veranderden. En hoe de aarde uiteindelijk een plek werd waar leven kon ontstaan en zich kon ontwikkelen.
Ancient Alien Stargate or Gate Of The Gods Discovered In Peru?
There are many people around the world that believe that the Large Hadron Collider at CERN is being used as some kind of portal/stargate to travel to other dimensions – as far fetched as this may seem, there is now also talk of some kind of Ancient stargate discovered in Peru, which has also been described as some kind of ‘Gate of the Gods’
This bizarre looking monument gives you an idea at the achievements of the ancient people who once lived in this area. This HUGE stone gate has an incredible history as the ancient people had once described, that is along with a mystical design that gives more credibility to the local legends.
It was actually a local guide named Jose Luis Delgado Mamanu who discovered this bizarre great door-like structure in the Hayu Marca mountain region of Southern Peru, mostly by coincidence/accident! The Gate of the Gods, or also known as the ‘Puerta de Hayu Marca’ was carved in a huge natural rock, which measures precisely seven meters in height, as well as in width and it has a small compartment in the center at the base of the monument.
Please check out below the full picture of this incredible gate way – looking very much unlike anything else ever discovered before:
It is believed by many researchers that the smaller entrance was created for earthly beings, whilst the bigger symmetrical entrance was used by deities (god or goddess) when they visited our realm. It is also believed that the larger entrance was designed for beings to pass through from other dimensions/parallel worlds.
What is even more bizarre about this discovery is the fact that the local guide, Luis Delgado has said that he actually had dreams which the mysterious gate was leading him too, sending him creepy visions of people of old who opened the gate while invited him to pass through it – so even though many people consider his finding a pure coincidence, Luis believes that a strange force guided him to the gate, because of the many visions he received, almost like he had been chosen in some strange way for making such an incredible discovery. He said:
“When I saw the structure for the first time, I almost passed out. I have dreamed of such a construction repeatedly over the years, but in the dream, the path to the door was paved with pink marble statues that aligned on both sides of the path. In the dream, I also saw that the smaller door was open and there was a brilliant blue light coming from what looked like a shimmering tunnel.
I have commented to my family many times about these dreams and so when I finally gazed upon the doorway, it was like a revelation from God…How do you make order of such a strange occurrence?”
WHAT lies beyond?
Similar to the famous film stargate, there are many people around the world that believe that there are stargates dotted around the universe, possibly used by Alien beings to travel the vastness of the Universe. Perhaps these are how some of the supposed Ancient Aliens managed to travel to earth, hence there are so many markings on walls/monuments of ET interactions (please click HERE for more).
If it was some kind of God or perhaps some unearthly alien/interdimensional being who set this potential path for this man, we can only presume, but the local Indian population has named the place the “City of the Gods.” Although no city has ever been discovered in this region, strangely many of the rocks surrounding the area resemble buildings and artificial structures, which helped shape the idea of yet another unknown and possibly unearthly civilization who once had inhabited the area in the far distant past.
There is actually a different legend which tells of the Spanish Conquistadors who arrived in Peru and once robbed the Inca temples at that time which supposedly full of gold and precious stones. As a result of the alarming situation, a Inca priest of the Temple of the Seven Rays named Aramu Maru, fled the temple with a revered disk known as “the key of the gods of the seven rays” and hid in the mountains of Hayu Marca. When he finally arrived at the Gate of the Gods, which at that point in time was guarded by shaman-priests, he revealed the sacred key and in the moments that followed a great ritual began. The performance triggered the golden disk which opened a portal into the gate, and according to the legends, blue light did come out of it. Aramu Maru offered the golden disk to the priests and went through the portal, never to return again.
To make things even stranger and to add up to the mystery, some important archaeologists at the time found a small depression on the right side of the entrance way designed for humans, and confirmed that in this compartment, a small disk could be placed tight to the rock – Could it possibly be that this particular spot could very well be the place where the mechanism was once activated?
To help give an impression of the sheer size of the entrance!
It will only be when the worlds leading archaeologists discover this supposed saced golden disk, that we can only presume that ‘something’ may happen when placed in the slot in the wall. Interestingly many people have actually told how when they placed their hands on the small rocky door, they felt sudden significant ‘wave of energy’ flowing through their bodies – it has also been said that some of these individuals also had several experiences based, which appeared to be some kind of ‘cosmic visions’ which involved stars, columns of fire and the sound of some kind of unexplainable strange rhythmic music.
Another very strange coincidence is that Gate of the Gods strongly resembles the other fascinating “Gate of the Sun” near Lake Titicaca. Another bizarre coincidence is that if you link up the two sacred gates and five other mystical archaeological sites by grid lines, they actually intersect each other exactly where Lake Titicaca is located.
The Gate Of The Sun
The figures that decorate the stone on the Gate of the Sun are believed to have astronomical connotations and resemble human-like beings with wings and curled-up tails, and appear to be wearing rectangular ‘helmets’, although interpretations differ. The ‘ Sun-God’ is in the centre and is sculpted with rays omitting from his face in all directions. He also appears to be holding a staff in each hand. The ‘Sun-God’ figure is also called the ‘Weeping God’ because things similar to tears are carved on its face. Many have believed for a long time that the Gates of the sun may have been some kind of gateway to another worlds, a bit like the Gates of Gods in Peru.
Interestingly many UFO sightings have been witnessed in the skies above Peru and Lake Titicaca, which have often been described as looking like blue sphere’s or white luminous discs, which have been suggested as being connected somehow with these prominent ‘mysterious’ sites.
Please check out one of the many strange sightings of UFO’s being captured around Peru, notice how it is frozen in one place:
If Extra-terrestrials once visited this area, and this ‘doorway’ was of some prominence to other worldly beings, it seems more than likely that they may return someday. It has been mentioned in the legends that speak about the reopening of the Gate of the Gods, that this time it would be a far more significant entrance from these Beings/Gods, claiming that; “many times bigger than it actually is”, allowing the Gods to return in their “sun ships.”
This theory has been accompanied by the native Indian which legends say discovered, only after the area where the gate stands was surrounded by archaeologists. The stories depict a gateway leading to the land of the gods, used by ancient heroes in order to join their deities and have a glorious new life on the plain of immortality. The adventurers sometimes returned from the mystical plain accompanied by their gods who “inspected all the lands in the kingdom” before going back through the gate.
U.I.P SUMMARY
Could it be that this supposed Gate of the Gods has been sealed until the beings from other Dimensions one day return? This truly is such a fascinating story, just by looking at the incredible structure you can tell there is something very different/mysterious about this area of Peru!
Perhaps it is possible that these supposed ‘gods’ were potentially advanced Alien beings from a parallel universe or some other reality?
It is according to the local stories in the area, that these supposed gods had actually revealed themselves to the old indigenous people and occasionally offered great visions on the night sky – perhaps showing visions of other worlds/times that these Beings come from!?
Perhaps the Large Hadron Collider as CERN is being used as some kind of portal to other dimensions, like some kind of modern day stargate equivalent!? They have already admitted to discovering Parallel Universes and other dimensions.
Perhaps the majority of strange sightings being seen over the world are Beings crossing over from other dimensions. Lets not forget that the FBI and leading Scientists have already admitted to this theory.
The Nazi Antarctic fortress: Base 211 and Operation Highjump
Numerous ‘alleged’ covert operations took place during the Nazi era, and one of the most memorable one’s is that of Neuschwabenland and their enigmatic Base 211 located within Antarctica.
Neuschwabenland or New Swabia is located on the Antarctic continent between 20°E and 10°W in Queen Maud Land. This faraway land was explored in great detail by the German Antarctic expedition which even came across parts with warm fresh-water, ice-free areas and vegetation, in an area where according to science, everything is frozen. According to geologists who participated in the German expedition, the areas where vegetation was present were due to hot springs or other geothermal sources.
One of the most interesting quotes about Neuschwabenland and Antarctica comes from German Navy Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz who said that: “The German submarine fleet is proud of having built for the Führer in another part of the world a Shangri-La on land, an impregnable fortress.”
For half a century, rumors about secret Nazi expedition and a secret base called ‘Station 211’ has existed among writers and researchers. But were the Nazis equipped to carry out such fascinating missions? And is the above-mentioned quote from Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz true?
According to a number of rumors, ‘Station 211’ did exist, and if it did, then it must have been (maybe till is) located inside the ice-free mountain range in the Muhlig-Hofmann Mountains of Neuschwabenland, aka Queen Maud Land.
However, today many people rush and dismiss the existence of secret bases on Antarctica suggesting there is no evidence to support such claims.
As always, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
Facts are though to track down since there is a mind-boggling amount of stories and ‘alleged’ witnesses who state the Nazis had created a Shangri-La on land, an impregnable fortress at Neuschwabenland.
Many authors propose that in 1946-47 Admiral Byrd, one fo the most famous American polar explorers searched for secret Nazi bases. Many authors propose that the so-called Operation Highjump when Admiral Byrd had at his disposal the largest armada ever to be sent to Antarctica.
Operation Highjump included a staggering 13 ships, an aircraft carrier, a submarine, two destroyers and a total of 4,700 men with full battle gear in what was officially called an ordinary ‘training exercise.’
However, many people believe that Operation Highjump was anything but a training mission.
The flotilla included:
Aan escort aircraft carrier (the Philippines Sea)
two seaplane carriers (the Pine Island and Curritich)
two destroyers (the Brownsen and Henderson)
two escort ships (Yankee and Merrick)
two fueling ships (Canister and Capacan)
A submarine (the Sennet)
Operation Highjump was curiously terminated six months earlier than expected. An excerpt from February 19, 1947, describes Admiral Byrd’s arrival over the pole at 1000 hours:
We are crossing over the small mountain range and still proceeding northward as best as can be ascertained. Beyond the mountain range is what appears to be a valley with a small river or stream running through the center portion. There should be no green valley below! Something is definitely wrong and abnormal here! We should be over Ice and Snow! To the portside are great forests growing on the mountain slopes. Our navigation Instruments are still spinning; the gyroscope is oscillating back and forth!
Conspiracy theories surrounding Byrd, Station 211 and other mysterious discoveries made by Admiral Byrd –like the existence of blue-skinned people—are endless.
Interestingly, many people believe Admiral Byrd made a number of cryptic comments while he was interviewed by the International News Service correspondent Lee Van Atta aboard the USS Mount Olympus. The article appeared on the March 5th, 1947 edition of Chilean newspaper ‘El Mercurio’:
“Adm. Byrd declared today that it was imperative for the United States to initiate immediate defense measures against hostile regions. The admiral further stated that he didn’t want to frighten anyone unduly but that it was a bitter reality that in case of a new war the continental United States would be attacked by flying objects which could fly from pole to pole at incredible speeds. Admiral Byrd repeated the above points of view, resulting from his personal knowledge gathered both at the north and south poles, before a news conference held for International News Service.”
While ‘El Mercurio’ is in fact a real newspaper, many people remain skeptical about the article and Admiral Byrd’s comments. Is it possible that a real danger did exist in the southernmost parts of Antarctica after World War II? If so, what were these threats? Were the Nazis involved?
No one can say for sure whether or not Admiral Byrd searched for the secret Nazi base, or if he ver stumbled across it.
However, researchers did find the so-called ice-free mountains. Between 1956 and 1960, a Norwegian exploration team mapped extensive parts of Queen Maud Land where they stumbled across areas with vegetation and to the surprise of many, they also discovered the mountains matching the description of the rumors behind Station 211.
What are your thoughts? Do you believe that the Nazis had the ability and means to construct secret bases around the globe? Among them Base 211 on Antarctica? Or are these stories just elaborate myths without conclusive evidence?
Spacecraft 'Sees' the Mysteries Buried Under the Polar Ice Caps of Mars
By Ian O'Neill, Seeker

Like Earth, Mars possesses north and south polar ice caps. Unlike Earth, however, the Martian versions not only contain water ice, there's there's a thick layer of carbon dioxide ice acting as a blanket. Frozen CO2, also known as "dry ice", is known to wax and wane in thickness depending on the Martian season. Though we have a pretty good understanding of the ice caps' surface features and how they interact with Mars' predominately carbon dioxide atmosphere, what lies beneath the most ancient layers of ice has been a mystery.
That was, however, until NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) arrived in orbit in 2006.
On board the veteran Mars satellite is an instrument called SHARAD — short for "Shallow Radar" — that has been bouncing radio waves off the planet's surface for over a decade. Individual observations by the instrument, for 2,000 orbits over the poles, have revealed some interesting icy findings over the years, but now, with a huge archive of data, planetary scientists have been able to build a 3-D view of the ice covering the north and south poles in the hope of better understanding the structures we cannot see inside the ice and how the ice changes over time. With this information they hope to build a picture of climatic changes over millions of years.
"We have applied industry-developed techniques in a very novel fashion to a Martian dataset, producing 3-D volumes that are each over 600 times larger than any terrestrial or planetary dataset of this kind," said senior scientist Nathaniel E. Putzig, of the Planetary Science Institute, in a statement.

Hidden within these data are previously unknown features, including possible impact craters and vast layers of ice that likely highlight eras of climate changes as the Red Planet's tilt precessed. There also appears to be a larger than expected volume of frozen carbon dioxide locked in the south pole's cap.
"It is gratifying to see so plainly in the SHARAD volumes structures that took years of effort to characterize with the single-orbit profiles," Putzig added. "I'm excited about what we will learn from newly revealed features such as the probable impact craters."
"While 3-D seismic and ground penetrating radar have become routine tools in terrestrial geophysical exploration, our 3-D treatment of the SHARAD data is a first in planetary geophysical exploration," said Frederick J. Foss of Freestyle Analytical & Quantitative Services. "The 3-D imaged SHARAD volumes significantly enhance the detectability and interpretability of features within the Martian polar ice caps."
These 3-D maps of Martian ice cap interiors will no doubt aid future discoveries of what lies beneath, in turn developing our understanding of how Mars' atmosphere evolved from an apparently habitable state into the harsh, dry climate we find today.

The White House has released a "National Near-Earth Object Preparedness Strategy" — a document developed by the Interagency Working Group (IWG) for Detecting and Mitigating the Impact of Earth-bound Near-Earth Objects (DAMIEN).
According to the strategy document, it "seeks to improve our nation's preparedness to address the hazard of near-Earth object (NEO) impacts by enhancing the integration of existing national and international assets and adding important capabilities that are currently lacking."
The strategy builds on efforts at NASA to better detect and characterize the NEO population, as well as recent efforts at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to prepare for and respond to a NEO impact. [Potentially Dangerous Asteroids in Images]
The document was published last month by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.
The document was published last month by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Seven strategic goals
There are seven main goals underpinning the effort to enhance the United States' preparedness for NEO impacts, the Strategy notes:
"Enhance NEO Detection, Tracking and Characterization Capabilities. Objectives include: developing a capability roadmap to inform a strategy for investing in both U.S. and foreign abilities for detection, tracking and characterization; improving observation capabilities for more complete and rapid observation of the entire population of NEOs; and updating existing observatories with capabilities to improve characterization assessments.
"Develop Methods for NEO Deflection and Disruption. Objectives include: developing capabilities for fast-response, focused reconnaissance and characterization; researching deflection and disruption capabilities for NEOs of varying size, mass, composition and impact warning times; and researching technologies required for deflection and disruption concepts.
"Improve Modeling, Predictions, and Information Integration. Objectives include: ensuring that adequate modeling capabilities are developed for each topical need, especially for modeling NEO trajectories to reduce orbit uncertainties and predicted impact effects; determining what outputs are required by whom; and establishing an organizational construct to coordinate the development and dissemination of modeling results.
"Develop Emergency Procedures for NEO Impact Scenarios. Objectives include: promoting a collaborative national approach to defend against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from a NEO impact event; and developing coherent national and international communication strategies to facilitate NEO impact preparations.
"Establish NEO Impact Response and Recovery Procedures. Objectives include: establishing national and international protocols to efficiently respond to a NEO impact, whether in deep ocean, coastal regions or on land; and facilitating international cooperation and planning to recover from a NEO impact in a timely manner with minimal disruption.
"Leverage and Support International Cooperation. Objectives include: building international support and policies for acknowledging and addressing the potential Earth impact of a NEO as a global challenge; fostering consultation, coordination and cooperation channels and efforts for the planning for, impact emergency preparedness before, and response to a NEO impact; increasing engagement with the international community on observation infrastructure, data sharing, numerical modeling and scientific research; strengthening international coordination and cooperation on NEO data and National Near-Earth Object Preparedness Strategy analyses; and promoting a collaborative international approach to preparedness for NEO events.
"Establish Coordination and Communications Protocols and Thresholds for Taking Action. Objectives include: coordinating the communication of detected impact threats within the U.S. Government, as well as with other governments, media and the public; developing a set of thresholds to aid U.S. decisions in whether to implement deflection or disruption missions; developing decision flowcharts for NEO hazard scenarios incorporating benchmarks and decision thresholds; and developing protocols for international interactions regarding NEO impacts outside of U.S. territory."
These seven high-level goals and associated objectives are intended to support a collaborative and federally coordinated approach to developing effective policies, practices and procedures for decreasing the nation’s vulnerabilities associated with the NEO impact hazard, according to the Strategy.
Significant and complex challenge
In a concluding statement, the Strategy document notes that, as with other low-probability, high-consequence hazards, "potential NEO impacts pose a significant and complex challenge."
The Strategy is seen as "a step in addressing the myriad challenges of managing and reducing the risks posed by both large and small NEOs."

What is dark matter? New detector results have left physicists in the dark.
Credit: sakkmesterke / Shutterstock.com
The early universe may have contained more dark matter than there is today, new research suggests. The findings could help scientists better understand what the universe was like just after the Big Bang, researchers said.
Most of the matter in the universe seems to be invisible and largely intangible; it holds galaxies together and only interacts with the more familiar matter through its gravitational pull. Researchers call the strange stuff dark matter, and one of the biggest questions for astrophysicists is what it actually is and how it might evolve or decay. [Twisted Physics: 7 Mind-Blowing Findings]
New work by a team of Russian scientists may offer insight into that question. Dmitry Gorbunov, of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology; Igor Tkachev, head of the of the Department of Experimental Physics at the Institute for Nuclear Research in Russia; and Anton Chudaykin, of Novosibirsk State University in Russia considered whether some unstable dark matter might have decayed since the universe's early days, turning from whatever type of particle or particles make up dark matter — that's still unknown — into lighter particles.
"We have now, for the first time, been able to calculate how much dark matter could have been lost and what the corresponding size of the unstable component would be," Tkachev said in a statement.
Their new calculations suggest that no more than 5 percent of the current amount of dark matter in the universe, could have been lost since the Big Bang.
Besides suggesting new properties for the elusive dark matter, the work could be important in helping scientists understand how the universe has changed over time, the researchers said. For example, the findings may show how the universe's rate of expansion has varied and what happened in the universe's first few hundred thousand years, when matter as we know it started to form into atoms.
Mysterious matter
Dark matter is a kind of matter that has mass, so it exerts a gravitational pull. However, it doesn't interact through electromagnetism with ordinary matter, so it is invisible. That is, it doesn't reflect or absorb light. The lack of electrical charge also makes dark matter intangible. Physicists are still debating what kind of particles make up dark matter, but most researchers agree that the substance accounts for some four-fifths of the matter in the universe.
Researchers have said Planck telescope data shows only about 4.9 percent of the universe is ordinary matter, about 26.8 percent is dark matter, and the remaining 68.3 percent is dark energy, which accelerates universal expansion.
The finding could be important in helping scientists understand how the universe changes over time. For example, the research could help reveal the change in the rate of expansion and what happened in the first few hundred thousand years of the cosmos, when matter as we know it started to form atoms. That was the first time photons (light) could start moving relatively freely through the universe.
Unstable universe
In its study, the team looked at data from the Planck space telescope, which studies the cosmic microwave background coming from a point located about 932,000 miles (1.5 million kilometers) from Earth. The cosmic microwave background is an "echo" of the Big Bang; it's the radiation from photons (light) that first started moving freely through the universe. By studying fluctuations in that radiation, it's possible to calculate the value of different parameters, such how fast the universe was expanding, at the time the radiation was emitted.
What they found was that the universe in its early days — about 300,000 years after it formed — behaved a bit differently than it does now. That conclusion comes from measuring the rate of expansion, as well as the number of galaxies in clusters, which are easier to explain if the amount of dark matter was anywhere from 2-5 percent greater than it is today.
To get that figure, the researchers compared the real universe with two models: one that assumed dark matter is stable and one that assumed the total amount of dark matter could change. The latter model did a better job of producing something like the universe seen today. So the early universe might have had two kinds of dark matter, the researchers said in a statement: one kind that decays into other particles and another that remains stable over billions of years.
"We are not currently able to say how quickly this unstable part decayed; dark matter may still be disintegrating even now," Tkachev said in a statement.
In addition, by looking at gravitational lensing – the bending of light by massive objects -- of the background radiation, the researchers found an upper limit for how much of that dark matter had to decay, the scientists said. The study appears in the journal Physical Review D.
The existence of dark matter is generally accepted by the sort of scientists who care about that kind of thing. After all, it’s a pretty robust explanation for why some stars and galaxies around the universe move around and accelerate in ways that can’t be explained simply by the gravitational effects of observable objects in the vicinity. Globs of an unseen substance, making up almost 85 percent of the total mass of the universe, have long been an integral part of our modern understanding of gravity.
But not everyone is buying it. There are quite a few alternative theories to gravity that don’t involve dark matter — some wilder than others — but the latest is worth lingering on because it’s a stickier idea. University of Amsterdam theoretical physicist Erik Verlinde is claiming that gravity isn’t an interaction or force as first described by Albert Einstein. Instead of being a static property since the Big Bang, gravity has, according to Verlinde, been an emergent phenomenon, constantly growing and expanding and adhering to the rules of increasing entropy as outlined by the second law of thermodynamics.
Verlinde first explained this theory of emergent gravity in 2010 and, in his latest paper, he doubles down and insists that the distribution of gravity throughout the universe doesn’t need to be explained by dark matter and dark energy. Verlinde studied Stephen Hawking’s and Jacob Bekenstein’s framework for black hole entropy and came to the conclusion that these principles might explain an observation about the connection between the acceleration scale in galaxies and at the cosmological horizon.
“I immediately realized that this should have a connection with my ideas on emergent gravity and entropy and that this implied a relation between the observed phenomena associated to dark matter and the presence of dark energy,” he tells Inverse.
At its core, Verlinde’s theory hypothesizes that gravity is driven by the entanglement of entropy in a vacuum. “Just like the normal laws of thermodynamics can be understood from the statistical treatment of the microscopic molecules that make up matter, gravity can be derived from the microscopic ‘molecules’ that make up the space time,” he says.
Those molecules are bits of quantum information, or qubits. As qubits aggregate and move around, they become more and more entangled with one another. This disorder increases the entropy of the quantum state of spacetime.
“When one assumes that this entanglement entropy grows like the area, one can derive the Einstein equations,” says Verlinde. “My insight was that in a universe with a positive dark energy there is a contribution to the entanglement entropy that grows like the volume. This contribution changes the laws of gravity from the ones by Einstein at large scale and low acceleration and precisely gives rise to the phenomena currently contributed to dark matter.”
In other words: Gravity is the root cause and an emergent property of the universe’s expansion.
There’s reason to believe Verlinde might be on to something. His theory helps resolve some unknown questions in physics that dark matter hasn’t been able to answer yet. It helps reconcile quantum mechanics with gravity in one description, consenting the laws of thermodynamics with black holes.
That’s why there are physicists out there currently trying to run tests to see whether emergent gravity is real. Margo Brouwer at Leiden Observatory in the Netherlands and her team have worked to compare gravitational distribution predictions based on Verlinde’s theory with actual astronomy observations, and found that the data matched remarkably well with the predictions.
This is simply the first step, but it’s critical for turning Verlinde’s theory from a fringe idea into a serious field of research. A lot more work will need to be done to prove it, but if Verlinde is right, we’re not just looking for dark matter in the wrong way — we shouldn’t be looking for it at all.
Il y a bien un mystère qui se cache sous l'Antarctique, mais les nazis et les extraterrestres n'y sont pour rien
Une vidéo vue de 3 millions de fois prétend que des bases militaires nazies et un monde paranormal seraient cachés sous les glaces. Son auteur serait-il complètement givré ?
La mer de Ross en Antarctique, le 12 novembre 2016. (MARK RALSTON/AP/SIPA / AP)
La chaîne YouTube conspirationniste Secureteam10 a publié le 27 décembre une vidéo prétendant qu'un objet massif était enterré sous les glaces de l'Antarctique. Elle suggère notamment que des bases nazies et un monde paranormal souterrain y seraient cachés. La vidéo a été visionnée plus de 3 millions de fois et a été relayée sur les sites internet de tabloïds anglo-saxons comme The Sun ou le New York Post. Franceinfo se penche sur cette démonstration, mais cette fois pour démêler le vrai du faux.
Ce qui est vrai : la découverte scientifique originelle
Oui, il y a bien eu des "anomalies" détectées en Antarctique. C’est en tout cas le constat d’une équipe de chercheurs dirigée par Ralph von Frese. Laquelle a observé des anomalies gravitationnelles mais aussi magnétiques dans la Terre de Wilkes, en Antarctique, et a publié plusieurs articles sur le sujet. Interrogé par franceinfo, le chercheur confirme que, selon lui, il s’agit d'"une des plus grandes anomalies de la planète". "Certaines personnes ont avancé qu’une activité volcanique aurait pu expliquer ces anomalies, raconte le chercheur. Mais il faut étudier la topographie (...) et la croûte à cet endroit se trouve être très fine ; une activité volcanique l’aurait rendue épaisse."
Selon lui, ces anomalies s’expliquent par l’impact d’une météorite géante, qui aurait provoqué l’apparition d’un énorme cratère, avec une remontée du manteau au centre et un épaississement anormal de la croûte sur les bords. "Ces anomalies sont très caractéristiques des réplétions que l’on observe sur Mars et sur la Lune", explique Ralph von Frese.
Cette interprétation est basée sur des données satellitaires, celles du programme Grace, lancé en 2002. Anthony Mémin, géodésien et géophysicien spécialiste de l’Antarctique, travaille depuis des années avecces données. Pour le scientifique, contacté par franceinfo, l'analyse de Ralph von Frese "semble tout à fait cohérente, c'est une explication qui se tient".
Mais cette théorie scientifique est-elle fidèlement rapportée dans la vidéo conspirationniste ? "La vidéo est assez exacte quant aux détails scientifiques de notre découverte d’un impact de météorite dans la Terre de Wilkes, estime von Frese. Ils soulignent ce que j’ai essayé de montrer". Même constat de la part d’Anthony Mémin pour qui "la première partie de la vidéo semble assez scientifiquement honnête".
Ce qui laisse planer le doute : un continent encore méconnu
A l’heure actuelle, l’existence du cratère est une interprétation, une déduction de données satellitaires. Si cratère il y a, il est enterré profondément sous la glace. Pour attester formellement de son existence, Ralph von Frese aimerait conduire une opération d’excavation, mais ce n’est pas pour demain : "L'effort déployé sur le terrain coûterait très cher", explique le chercheur, citant notamment les conditions de travail particulièrement rudes. "Tant qu'il n'y aura pas d'échantillonnage géologique, cela restera des théories, corrobore Anthony Mémin. L'Antarctique est un continent qui est tellement grand, avant d'en avoir fait le tour il va falloir quelques décennies."
La difficulté et la taille du terrain empêchent l'Antarctique de livrer tous ses secrets.Et quand on connaît peu de choses sur un sujet, notre imagination peut s’emballer. "Les pôles ont toujours beaucoup intrigué", confirme Frédérique Rémy, directeur de recherche au CNRS, spécialiste des zones polaires et auteur d’Histoire des pôles, mythes et réalités polaires au XVIIe et XVIIIe siècle (éd. Desjonquères). "Entre la boussole qui indique les pôles et les aurores boréales, on se disait autrefois qu'il s'y passait forcément quelque chose.""En Antarctique, on peut imaginer beaucoup de choses",analyse aussiAnthony Mémin.
Ce qui est faux : les théories complotistes et paranormales
Ralph von Frese se veut prudent quant à la partie finale de la vidéo, dans laquelle l'auteur suggère que des bases nazies et un monde paranormal seraient enterrés sous la glace : "Je ne peux pas commenter les affirmations militaires de cette vidéo, car je n’en sais rien." "La transition est tellement mal faite qu'on a l'impression que ce sont deux reportages différents", réagit de son côté Anthony Mémin. Effectivement, la greffe des théories conspirationnistes sur les travaux de Ralph von Frese paraît grossière.
"Si vous tapez 'Hitler' et 'Antarctique', c'est dément tout ce que vous allez trouver", souligne Frédérique Rémy. Des auteurs du mysticisme nazi ont en effet exploité le décor de l’Antarctique. Le diplomate chilien Miguel Serrano, figure de l'ésotérisme d’extrême droite, avance par exemple qu’Hitler aurait survécu et se serait réfugié dans la Terre de la Reine-Maud en Antarctique. Dans la vidéo de Secureteam10, le narrateur montre des photos de prétendues fentes dans la terre donnant sur un monde souterrain et de supposées bases nazies.

Des photos qui sont loin de constituer des preuves tangibles. "En sciences, on ne montre jamais une photo comme ça sans donner une idée de l'échelle", décrypte Anthony Mémin. "Ça peut être aussi une photo d'une roche avec un trou."
L’auteur de la vidéo ne s’arrête pas seulement à la théorie du complot nazi, mais il saupoudre aussi le tout de paranormal. Il utilise notamment les propos de l’amiral Richard Byrd à son retour de l’opération Highjump, une expédition américaine lancée en 1946. "L'amiral Byrd est rentré de l'Antarctique et il était complètement fou", raconte Frédérique Rémy à franceinfo. "Il a dit qu'il avait vu des extra-terrestres."
A l’époque, la taille de cette expédition américaine, composée de plus de 4 000 hommes,a laissécertains penser que son but n’était pas uniquement scientifique. Il s'agissait, d'après l'auteur de la vidéo, vu leur nombre et leur équipement, de trouver une entrée vers un monde paranormal souterrain. "Ils sont effectivement partis comme pour faire la guerre, mais d'abord parce que c'est un milieu très dur, explique Frédérique Rémy. Il y a plein d'explorateurs qui sont morts là-bas. Par ailleurs, s'ils étaient si nombreux, c'est qu'on était à la fin de la guerre et qu'il fallait occuper les jeunes de retour."
Si autant de thèses farfelues s'agrègent en Antarctique, c’est aussi parce qu’"il y a pas mal de photos qui sont assez ambiguës", note Frédérique Rémy. Le soleil rasant peut causer des déformations optiques alors que la glace peut provoquer des mirages froids. Du pain béni pour les conspirationnistes ; l'Antarctique n'a pas fini de nourrir leurs théories les plus folles.
Silent triangle UFO observed low over California town
A California witness at Manteca reported watching a low flying, black triangle UFO crossing the sky silently, according to testimony in Case 81275 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The triangle UFO was seen over Manteca, CA, about 70 miles northeast of San Jose.

The witness stepped into his backyard about 11:10 p.m. on December 31, 2016, to look for the New Year’s comet with a green laser pointer.
“Moon had already set,” the witness stated.“I just stopped playing with the laser and in the darkness and I noticed movement directly above me out of the corner of my eye.”
The witness first thought he was seeing a flock of geese flying in triangle shape.
The object was blocking out the sky behind it. Pictured: Manteca, CA.

“It was very difficult to see; just triangle edges blocking out stars, and maybe not as dark as the sky behind it. It was completely silent, moving at a perfectly slow pace without a sound. I just kept moving.”
Still thinking it might be a flock of geese, the witness lit it up with a green laser.
“I was completely shocked when it bounced off the bottom of it – similar to how a laser reflects off a stop sign, but not as bright. I think I moved the laser around quickly like drawing in the sky to reveal the shape of the craft. It was a triangle – long angled front, and appeared to be a slightly curved back. I yelled for my wife to come out and look. She did, but didn’t have her glasses. I was still able to reflect the laser off the bottom and pointed it out to her as it disappeared behind the trees. I looked for several minutes just in case it would return. It did not. It moved behind the treeline.”
The object was silent and shaped like a triangle. Pictured: Manteca, CA.

The witness indicated in the MUFON report that the object was under 500 feet.
Manteca is a city in San Joaquin County, California, population 71,948. California MUFON State Section Director Nancy Felipe is investigating. Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
“Alien: Covenant zal geheime missie van de Illuminati onthullen”
De film Alien: Covenant zal de geheime missie van de Illuminati uit de doeken doen. Dat zegt althans de bekende complottheoreticus Alex Jones, schrijft AOL News.
De Illuminati is een geheim genootschap dat het menselijk ras tot slaaf zou willen maken.
Jones, presentator van The Alex Jones Show en eigenaar van de website Infowars.com, staat bekend om zijn radicale theorieën.
Nieuwe Wereldorde
In een nieuwe video geeft hij tekst en uitleg over zijn complottheorie over Alien: Covenant.
Volgens Jones opereren de ‘globalisten’ vanuit de Illuminati en werken ze aan een Nieuwe Wereldorde die over alle mensen zal heersen, weet mediabedrijf Vocativ.
De Illuminati bestaat uit wereldleiders, zakenmagnaten, kunstenaars en andere invloedrijke mensen.
Petrischaaltje
In zijn video legt Jones uit dat de globalisten die deze planeet besturen geloven in directed panspermia, de theorie dat organismen naar aarde zijn gebracht door een buitenaards ras.
Hij legt uit dat de Illuminati geïnspireerd is geraakt door dat ras en de menselijke evolutie probeert over te nemen.
“Ze veranderen de hele planeet in een petrischaaltje, waarin ze experimenteren op de bevolking en een superras creëren,” zei Jones.
Methode
Hoe sluit dit aan op een film van Ridley Scott? Volgens Jones onthult de regisseur de strategie van de globalisten.
“Ridley Scott gaf toe dat het schip een wapen was en biomechanische wezens aan boord had die door een hoogontwikkeld ras werden gebruikt voor een oorlog,” aldus Jones.
“Dit is precies waar de globalisten naar verluidt aan werken,” voegde hij toe. “De Alien-films onthullen de methode die ze gebruiken.”
Anunnaki
In Alien: Covenant verkennen mensen een planeet die op het eerste oog aandoet als een paradijs.
Niets is wat het lijkt: Jones claimt dat het ‘een reusachtige reageerbuis is waarin van planten en dieren bizarre nieuwe vormen worden gemaakt – een religieus experiment van de Anunnaki’.
Complottheoretici menen dat de Anunnaki in werkelijkheid aliens waren die op Nibiru of Planeet X leefden en het mensenras hebben gemaakt, schrijft Vocativ.
Biotechnologie
De manier waarop het buitenaardse ras in Alien: Covenant nieuwe organismen creëert lijkt volgens Jones erg op de biotechnologie waarmee globalisten op aarde genetisch gemodificeerde organismen (ggo’s) maken.
“We worden opgeofferd in dit enorme experiment,” zei hij.
“Er zijn de afgelopen 20 jaar duizenden studies gedaan waaruit blijkt dat ggo-gewassen en ggo-vaccins doelbewust ons DNA veranderen en ons muteren,” voegde hij toe.
Trump
In december 2015 was Donald Trump te gast in zijn show. De aankomend president zei: “Je reputatie is geweldig. Ik zal je niet teleurstellen.”
Zowel Clinton als Obama noemden Jones tijdens campagnetoespraken. De huidige president van Amerika vertelde aan het publiek dat hij geen demon is, zoals Jones had gesuggereerd.
NASA spot mysterieus voorwerp dat op koers is richting Aarde
NASA heeft twee grote voorwerpen gespot die op koers zijn richting de Aarde. Het Amerikaanse ruimteagentschap kon een van de objecten identificeren als een komeet, maar over het andere bestaat meer onduidelijkheid.
Het eerste object is de komeet C/2016 U1 NEOWISE. Ruimteagentschap NASA ontdekte de komeet in oktober 2016 met behulp van NeoWISE, een ruimtetelescoop die asteroïden en kometen die de baan van de Aarde kruisen moet opsporen.
In december 2016 bevond de komeet zich het dichtst bij onze planeet, maar het voorwerp zal “tijdens de eerste week van dit jaar mogelijk te zien zijn met een verrekijker”. Toch zeggen de wetenschappers van NASA daar geen zekerheid over te hebben “aangezien de helderheid van een komeet compleet onvoorspelbaar is”.
Mysterieus voorwerp
Over het tweede object 2016 WF9 bestaat meer onzekerheid. Het voorwerp werd op 27 november 2016 gespot door NeoWISE. Met een geschatte diameter tussen een halve en één kilometer, is het een van de grootste voorwerpen uit de recente geschiedenis die in de nabijheid van de Aarde komt.
Wat 2016 WF9 precies is, is nog niet geweten. Het voorwerp is donker - net zoals een komeet - maar zou geen stof of gas bevatten, wat karakteristiek is voor een komeet. “Dat toont aan dat de grens tussen een asteroïde en een komeet soms heel vaag is”, aldus Paul Chodas van NASA.
Het mysterieuze voorwerp zal de Aarde op 25 februari 2017 passeren op een afstand van 51 miljoen kilometer. NASA zegt dat het geen enkele bedreiging vormt in de nabije toekomst.
Groundbreaking UFO Video Just Released from Chilean Navy
An exceptional nine-minute Navy video of a UFO displaying highly unusual behavior, studied by Chilean authorities for the last two years, is now being released to the public. The CEFAA - the Chilean government agency which investigates UFOs, or UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena), has been in charge of the investigation. Located within the DGAC, the equivalent of our FAA but under the jurisdiction of the Chilean Air Force, CEFAA has committees of military experts, technicians and academics from many disciplines. None of them have been able to explain the strange flying object captured by two experienced Navy officers from a helicopter.
The Chilean government agency always makes its cases public when an investigation is complete, and acknowledges the existence of UAP when a case merits such a conclusion.
General Ricardo Bermúdez, Director of CEFAA during the investigation, told me that “We do not know what it was, but we do know what it was not.” And “what it is not” comprises a long list of conventional explanations. Here is what happened:
On November 11th, 2014, a Chilean Navy helicopter (Airbus Cougar AS-532) was on a routine daytime patrol mission flying north along the coast, west of Santiago. On board were the pilot, a Navy Captain with many years of flying experience, and a Navy technician who was testing a WESCAM’s MX-15 HD Forward Looking Infra Red (FLIR) camera, used most often for “medium-altitude covert intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance,” according to the product website. The aircraft was flying at an altitude of approximately 4,500 feet on a clear afternoon with unlimited horizontal visibility, and the air temperature at that height was 50 degrees F (10 C). There was a cloud base above at 10,000 feet, and a layer of stratuscumulos clouds below. The helicopter was flying at about 132 knots, or 152 mph.
EVOGOL AT ENGLISH WIKIPEDIA
A Chilean Navy AS 532SC Cougar helicopter in Mejillones, Chile.
At 1:52 pm, while filming the terrain, the technician observed a strange object flying to the left over the ocean. Soon both men observed it with the naked eye. They noticed that the velocity and the altitude of the object appeared to be about the same as the helicopter, and estimated that the object was approximately 35 to 40 miles (55-65 km) away. It was traveling W/NW, according to the Captain. The technician aimed the camera at the object immediately and zoomed in with the infra red (IR) for better clarity.
COURTESY CEFAA
The route of the helicopter derived from the displayed geographic coordinates displayed on the camera.
Shortly thereafter, the pilot contacted two radar stations - one close by on the coast, and the other the main DGAC Control system (Ground Primary Radar) in Santiago - to report the unknown traffic. Neither station could detect it on radar, although both easily picked up the helicopter. (The object was well within the range of radar detection.) Air traffic controllers confirmed that no traffic, either civilian or military, had been reported in the area, and that no aircraft had been authorized to fly in the controlled air space where the object was located. The on-board radar was also unable to detect the object and the camera’s radar could not lock onto it.
The pilot tried several times to communicate with the UAP, using the multi-national, civilian bandwidth designed for this purpose. He received no reply.
The technician filmed the object for nine minutes and twelve seconds, mainly in IR. This sensor produces a black and white video in which the black, white and grey tones are directly related to temperature. IR detects heat, and the hotter the material being filmed, the darker it appears on the image. The officers stopped the camera when they had to return to the base and the object disappeared behind the clouds.
The Navy immediately turned over the footage to the CEFAA, and General Bermúdez, accompanied by nuclear chemist Mario Avila, a CEFAA scientific committee member, conducted interviews with the two officers at their Navy base. “I was very impressed by these witnesses,” Avila told me. “They were highly trained professionals with many years experience, and they were absolutely certain that they could not explain what they saw.” Both offiicers also provided written reports at the base, as is required, and for CEFAA.
The Navy Captain stated that the object was a “flat, elongated structure” with “two thermal spotlights like discharges that did not coincide with the axel of motion.” The technician described it as as “white with a semi-oval shape on the horizontal axis.”
COURTESY CEFAA
The video depicts two connected white circular lights or hot spots, giving off much heat (left). This image was part of an analysis by astrophysicist Luis Barrera. “Envoltura” means “envelope.”
But there is one additional component that makes this footage particularly unique: “In two instances it discharged some type of gas or liquid with a high thermal track or signal,” the technician stated. After filming for about eight minutes, the stunning ejection of a massive plume of a very hot material is captured on the video, trailing behind the object. (The plume blended into the clouds when seen in HD.) Another ejection occurred moments later. It is indeed bizarre to watch this on the video.
COURTESY CEFAA
The object moved away from the massize plume it ejected just moments earlier.
Following are the three key video excerpts in chronological order; later I include the full ten minute video. Note that at times the camera switches from IR to HD mode. I recommend watching these silent video clips on a large monitor.
The first one shows the object in motion. The camera captured this for about eight minutes prior to the spectacular display in the next video. (Click “back to youtube video” at the end to prevent a new unrelated video from starting.)
This clip shows the first expulsion of the hot material from the object and the object’s movement away from the plume:
The second expulsion occurred at the end of the video:
During the following two years, at least eight somewhat contentious meetings were held with members of the baffled CEFAA scientific committee, some of which included the active Air Force General who directs the DGAC. According to CEFAA international affairs director Jose Lay, the general tone of the meetings was astonishment: “What the hell is that?” No agreement could be reached to explain the video - theories that were proposed were ruled out by the data.
COURTESY CEFAA
A rather somber meeting of the CEFAA scientific and military committee to discuss the Navy video. The DGAC Director presided (with his back to the camera).
Written reports or video analyses were provided by the well-known astrophysicist Luis Barrera; an image expert from the Air Force photogrammetric service; photo and video analyst Francois Louange and colleagues from France, arranged through the French agency GEIPAN; Luis Salazar, Chilean Air Force meteorologist; a DGAC aeronautic engineer; a digital images specialist from the National Museum of Aeronautics and Space in Santiago; and Mario Avila, a nuclear chemist. All radar, satellite weather data, and details of air traffic in that sector at that time were provided.
COURTESY CEFAA
DGAC’s Director, Air Force General Victor Villalobos, attended two committee meetings on the case.
The French analysts proposed that the object was a “medium-haul aircraft” coming in for a landing into the Santiago airport, and “the effluent trail observed on two occasions probably results from dumping some cabin waste water, forming a plume oriented along the local wind blowing from the west.” They based this on their calculation that the distance between the two hot spots was “consistent with the standard distance between the two jet engines of a medium-haul aircraft.”
Chilean experts knew that this would have been impossible, for a number of reasons: This plane would have been seen on primary radar; it would have had to be cleared for landing in Santiago or at another airport; it would likely have responded to radio communications. Airplanes do not throw out water when landing. In fact, in Chile a plane wishing to eject any material must request permission from the DGAC before doing so; that regulation is widely known and respected. And, it seems unlikely that this experienced pilot would not have recognized this as an airplane, or at least kept that option open afterwards if it were a possibility.
In fact, if - hypothetically - water was expelled, it would have immediately plummeted to the ground given the warm air temperature. According to NASA, “Contrails are human-induced clouds that usually form at very high altitudes (usually above 8 km - about 26,000 ft) where the air is extremely cold (less than -40ºC). Because of this, contrails form not when an airplane is taking off or landing, but while it is at cruise altitude.” The plume ejected from the object must have been some kind of gas or energy, and was not something tangible like water.
The French calculations confirmed that the UAP’s altitude was the same as the helicopter’s, and that “the helicopter’s velocity along its linear trajectory was constant (120 kt),” just as the witnesses had stated. In addition, Louange and his colleagues determined that the average distance between the helicopter and the object was “almost exactly the estimated value reported by the Navy (55 km).” Clearly the two witnesses were competent and accurate observers.
Data from the various reports eliminate other conventional explanations. Meteorologists determined that no weather balloons were in the sky at that time, and noted that a ballon would not move horizontally along with the plane because the wind was blowing from the west towards the shore. Comparing the footage to similar IR satellite imagery with known temperature values, they stated that the object’s temperature must have been higher than 122 degrees F (50 C). The object was not a drone; all drones require registration with the DGAC and whenever flown, the DGAC is informed, just like it is with aircraft. Also, radar would register drones. CEFAA staff went up the chain of command to a Navy Admiral who informed them that there were no joint Naval exercises underway with the US or any other country. The Admiral confirmed that this could not have been a US drone, or any type of espionage or secret vehicle from a foreign country.
Astrophysicist Barrera explored the possibility of space junk re-entry - especially Russian - which somehow may have broken and released compressed gases at this low altitude. It was confirmed that no space debris entered the atmosphere on that date in that location, and in any case, such an object would have fallen rapidly and not flown horitzontally. Two independent experts on explosives told CEFAA staff that in such a scenario, the rounded vehicle would explode in the air due to the high internal pressure, and that the gas would catch fire in a flash. And any such re-entries would have been communicated to the Chilean government so that aircraft can be warned, as is the protocol.
Barrera also noted that when the first ejection event occurred, the material came out from two different parts of the object and then joined in space making one wake. The first was massive and dark in the IR (meaning very hot); the second lighter and semi-transparent.
Air Force photo analysts confrmed that the object was a real, three dimensional form with volume and that it “has control in its movements.” It was not affected by the winds, reflected the light, and threw out “some kind of energy.” They established that there was no evidence of hoaxing or of “alteration of the video by any computer application in the editing and processing of the images.” They also ruled out a bird, flying insect, drone, parachute or hang glider. “It can be concluded that the object has all the characteristics to be classified as an unidentified aerial phenomenon” wrote Alberto Vergara, the lead analyst from the Air Force Photogrammetric Department.
It is unclear how much of the apparent horizontal motion of the object may be the clouds moving or the relative motion of the camera on the helicopter, but the witnesses reported that the object kept pace with the chopper and the French analysts confirmed this. Also noteworthy is the fact that when in HD mode, the large plume looked like part of the cloud and would never be noticed as anything unusual by an observer. Without the IR camera, it would have been difficult to see the white object against the sky and impossible to capture this remarkable footage. It makes one wonder what kind of actiivites may take place within clouds that are unknown to us.
Here is the full ten minute video of the sighting:
“This has been one of the most important cases in my career as director of CEFAA because our Committee was at its best, “ General Bermúdez said in an email. “The CEFAA is well regarded partly because there is full participation from the scientists of the academic world, the armed forces through their representatives, and the aeronautic personnel from the DGAC, including its Director. I am extremely pleased as well with the conclusion reached which is logical and unpretentious.” The official conclusion was that “the great majority of committee members agreed to call the subject in question a UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon) due to the number of highly researched reasons that it was unanimously agreed could not explain it.”
This case represents one of the most puzzling and fascinating of all cases in the CEFAA files, according to Jose Lay. “It is our first video taken with a sophisticated camera in the infra red; the first time we have ever seen the ejection of a substance from a UAP; the first time we have a sighting lasting over nine minutes with two highly reliable witnesses,” he said when we spoke.
OPENMINDS.TV/CEFAA
General Ricardo Bermúdez has directed the CEFAA since its inception in 1997. He retired on Jan. 1, 2017, but will remain an advisor to the agency.
The CEFAA has been a world leader in official and open investigations of UFOs. I have been priviledged to work closely with the staff there for about five years, learning a great deal. At the end of December, General Bermúdez retired, and although he remains an external advisor to the agency, Lay has assumed the duty of interim director until another General is appointed by the DGAC. I am grateful to General Bermúdez for giving me access to the outstanding CEFAA case files, inviting me to attend meetings there, and for his time in answering my questions. He has left a tremendous legacy with regards to the serious study of UAP and the official recognition of a real unexplained phenomenon in our skies.
