Deformed 'alien' skull found in Crimea belonged to a toddler who had his head bound in a Sarmatian tradition to create child warriors almost 2,000 years ago

• Archaeologists made the startling find at a burial site in Kyz-Aul, close to Kerch
• The artificially lengthened heads were a feature of the Sarmatian culture
• They were thought to alter the character and make warriors more aggressive
• The boy is believed to have been aged between 18 months and two years old

By Will Stewart for MailOnline

An 'alien boy' with a weirdly elongated skull found in a tomb in Crimea was in fact a a boy marked out to be an ancient warrior, say Russian archaeologists.

The artificially lengthened head was a feature of children being groomed as Sarmatian fighters almost 2,000 years ago, they say.

Archaeologists made the startling find at a burial site close to a giant £2.9billion ($3.8billion) bridge currently under construction.

It was immediately called an 'alien's grave', said the scientists. 

An 'alien boy' with a weirdly elongated skull found in a tomb in Crimea was in fact a trainee ancient warrior, say Russian archaeologists. The artificially lengthened head (pictured) was a feature of children being groomed as Sarmatian fighters almost two thousand years ago

The find was made at Kyz-Aul, close to Kerch, where Vladimir Putin has commissioned construction of the bridge.

It will connect the peninsula, annexed from Ukraine in a 2014 military operation, to mainland Russia.

One Russian state media outlet reported that 'some adherents of "ancient astronauts" theories claim that the owners of such lengthened skulls may be human-extraterrestrial hybrids'.

The boy warrior from the second century AD is believed to have been aged between 18 months and two years old when he died.

Nikolay Sudarev, a scientist from the Archaeology Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences, denied the grave was linked to alien civilisations.

'Elongated skulls were traditional for the Sarmatian culture,' he said, according to Moskovsky Komsomolets newspaper.

'They thought this was more beautiful.'

The artificially elongated skull was a sign of a 'true warrior' and the deformation process was practiced by a number of ancient cultures.

It began early in childhood when the bones were still soft, and no surgery was needed.

Special wooden planks were tied to the skull, pressing the bones and gradually altering the shape.

Such deformations were seen as altering the character, and making the warriors 'more aggressive'.

Near the skeleton was found a vessel made of clay, along with tiny beads.

On the boy's arm there was a copper bracelet.

While this infant was identified as male the Sarmatians were also famed for their female warriors who helped to conquer Crimea in ancient times.

The prominent role of the group's women in warfare was seen as an inspiration to the Amazons.

Retired USAF Employee spots UFO over Boysen Reservoir outside Shoshone Wyoming

A strange craft has been accidentally photographed just at the moment the unknown craft flew over a lake outside Shoshone Wyoming.

The photographer, a retired USAF employee said: On July 1, 2017 I was on my way home from Las Vegas when I had to use the restroom at Boysen Reservoir outside Shoshone Wyoming.

After returning to my vehicle I realized that I had locked my keys in the truck. I called my wife to bring me the extra set of keys. I was less than 90 miles from my house. It would take her around 90 minutes to get to me.

I snapped a couple of photos of the lake and sent them to my son. It was around 3pm. My wife arrived and was home around 7pm. I downloaded the pictures from my phone into the computer about 15 days later.

When I looked at them on the screen something caught my attention on the right side of the picture a little over halfway up.

I enlarged it and was not sure what I was looking at. I asked my wife to come look at it at normal size. She said "I see a lake and a UFO".

We both studied it and cannot explain what we were looking at. I am retired USAF and after 20 years of service I can't remember seeing anything that looked like it.

At the time I took the picture I did not see or hear anything. I would greatly appreciate any information that you could give regarding what this is. Mufon case 85445.

Explain This! Flying "Reptile" Head caught on camera over the River Tay, Scotland?

While visiting the river Tay in Scotland a family photographed a strange object in the sky described as a strange huge brown egg shaped object, but to me it looks like the head of a reptile or fish.

Now it is known that sometimes, fish falling from the sky once they get up into the weather system caused by severe weather conditions. It is common for example for tornados to suck up water and fish from rivers and drop them hundreds of miles away.

If such an event happens than mostly hundreds of fish falling from the sky at once, but in this case we only see a head which doesn't seem to fall out from the sky.

The photographer states: On July 28, 2017 I was at the beach with family and we saw dolphins in the river Tay. My girlfriend from Bulgaria doesn't believe that we have dolphins in the river in Scotland so I tried to snap some shots of them with my Sony Xperia x 23mp camera.

I took several pictures while focusing on the water and when I looked back to see if I had caught any dolphins emerging, one of the photos in the middle of the set taken had a strange brown egg shaped object in the sky.

Clearly the object is in the distance and is not dirt on or in my lens as my device is waterproof therefore airtight and nothing shows in the pictures before or after. I just can't explain it.

Can you explain it?

Gaat de zonne-auto - eindelijk - de markt veroveren?

Caroline Kraaijvanger

Een Nederlands bedrijf komt binnen een paar jaar met een auto die zichzelf oplaadt middels zonlicht. “Dit kan een gamechanger zijn.”

Zo snel mogelijk van de ene naar de andere kant van Australië reizen, is al een hele opgave. Maar stel je nu eens voor dat je daarbij ook geen brandstof mag verbruiken. Dan lijkt het een onmogelijke opgave te worden. Maar niet voor vindingrijke studenten. Herhaaldelijk reizen zij tijdens de Bridgestone World Solar Challenge met hun zelfgebouwde, rijkelijk met zonnepanelen bedekte auto’s van Darwin naar Adelaide. Bij de gratie van het gratis zonlicht haasten de auto’s zich dwars door de outback, terwijl ze meer energie opwekken dan ze verbruiken. De futuristische karavaan trekt vanzelfsprekend een hoop bekijks en je zou er hebberig van worden. Want: nooit meer tanken en tegelijkertijd zelden aan de oplaadpaal gekluisterd zijn, wie wil dat nu niet? Toch leek het een verre toekomstdroom te blijven. Want hoe gaaf de door studenten in elkaar geknutselde zonne-auto’s ook waren: echt praktisch waren ze niet. Vaak was er maar ruimte voor één (volslanke) persoon. En een kofferbak voor de boodschappen ontbrak.

De zonne-auto van het Nuon Solar Team van de TU Twente: leuk en superefficiënt, maar niet echt praktisch.

Tot 2012. Toen werd de Bridgestone World Solar Challenge uitgebreid met de Cruiserklasse. Binnen deze klasse moesten praktische zonne-auto’s (lees: ruimte voor meerdere passagiers en boodschappen) het tegen elkaar opnemen. Studenten van de TU Eindhoven gingen deze nieuwe uitdaging aan en bouwden Stella en een paar jaar later opvolger Stella Lux: gezinsauto’s die rijden op de zonne-energie die deze auto’s zelf opwekken. De studenten bleken met de Stella’s een gouden greep te hebben gedaan: in 2015 laten ze in de Australische outback alle andere zonne-auto’s in deze klasse achter zich en pakken goud. Het levert een hoop media-aandacht op en de studenten reizen van congres naar congres om hun succesverhaal te vertellen. En keer op keer klinkt daar vanuit het publiek dezelfde vraag: “Waar kunnen we de auto kopen?” “Op dat moment realiseerden de leden van het Solar Team zich dat er serieus vraag naar is,” vertelt Tessie Hartjes. Ze werkt voor Lightyear, een bedrijf dat is opgericht door een aantal van de studenten die in de Australische outback de overwinning behaalden. Die studenten zijn inmiddels afgestudeerd en vastbesloten om binnen een paar jaar de eerste zonne-auto’s op de markt te brengen. “Dit kan een gamechanger zijn.”

Stella Lux: een praktische zonne-auto.

Lightyear One
Die gamechanger heet Lightyear One en kost 119.000 euro (exclusief BTW). De auto biedt ruimte aan vier personen en rijdt op zonne-energie die de auto zelf opwekt. Wanneer er meer zonne-energie wordt opgewekt dan de auto nodig heeft, wordt het overschot opgeslagen in de accu aan boord van de auto. Daar kan de auto op bewolkte dagen of ’s avonds dan weer een beroep op doen. Met een volle accu zou de auto tussen de 400 en 800 kilometer moeten kunnen rijden. Ben je niet zo’n kilometervreter? Dan kun je het overschot aan energie dat de auto opwekt, bijvoorbeeld afstaan aan jouw woning. “Je kunt je ook voorstellen dat er straks bedrijven zijn die twintig van dit soort auto’s bezitten. Wanneer de auto’s op de parkeerplaats staan, kan de opgewekte zonne-energie dan bijvoorbeeld gebruikt worden om de airco in het kantoorpand van energie te voorzien,” vertelt Hartjes.

Aerodynamisch en licht
De actieradius die Hartjes en collega’s beloven, valt op. Deze is enorm. “Het is technisch gezien al mogelijk, hoor,” stelt Hartjes. Maar veel autofabrikanten zitten zichzelf nog in de weg. “Wanneer zij een nieuw model willen introduceren, gaan ze eerst ontwerpen en daarna pas optimaliseren voor de aerodynamica. Wij doen het andersom: onze auto wordt aangepast aan zijn functionaliteit.” Dat dat voor bestaande autofabrikanten lastig is, komt onder meer doordat mensen bepaalde verwachtingen van die fabrikanten hebben: een stukje herkenbaarheid dat ook in het ontwerp van nieuwe modellen terug moet komen. Die beperking hebben Hartjes en collega’s niet. “Wij kunnen het direct goed doen.” En dus wordt er momenteel een super-aerodynamische auto ontworpen. “Daardoor kunnen we maar een kleine accu nodig: ongeveer drie keer kleiner dan die van Tesla.” En dat betekent dat de auto weer een stukje lichter is, wat weer goed is voor het energieverbruik. “Het is sowieso een lichtgewicht auto, want we maken gebruik van carbonfiber.”

“ONDANKS ALLE GEHEIMZINNIGHEID ZIJN ER INMIDDELS AL TIEN LIGHTYEAR ONE’S VERKOCHT”

Tien verkocht
Op dit moment is Lightyear druk bezig met het ontwerp van de auto. Hoe deze er precies uit gaat zien, blijft tot begin volgend jaar in nevelen gehuld. “Het zal een robuuste auto worden,” zo licht Hartjes een tipje van de sluier op. Ondanks alle geheimzinnigheid zijn er inmiddels al tien Lightyear One’s verkocht. “En we hopen er de komende vijf jaar nog zo’n 1000 te verkopen.” De eerste tien exemplaren zullen vanaf 2019 geleverd worden. “Die eerste lichting is tamelijk exclusief,” vertelt Hartjes. “Het is een statement car: we willen hiermee vooral laten zien dat je op zonne-energie kunt rijden. Maar uiteindelijk moet die prijs natuurlijk wel omlaag.” Zeker als je denkt aan de uiteindelijke doelgroep die Lightyear voor ogen heeft. “Uiteindelijk willen we de auto gaan verkopen in developing countries, oftewel opkomende economieën. Zo willen we voorkomen dat de mensen daar straks in onze oude benzine- en dieselauto’s gaan rijden.” Dat een bedrijf met deze ambitie zich met de eerste lichting richt op het luxe segment is volgens Hartjes niet vreemd. “We moeten ons als merk zien te vestigen en aantonen dat we een goede auto kunnen leveren.” Dat is belangrijk als het bedrijf straks auto’s wil verkopen in bijvoorbeeld India, waar de mensen zeer merkgevoelig zijn. “Bovendien is de kans dat er nu dingen misgaan veel groter als we in dit stadium reeds proberen om een zo goedkoop mogelijke auto te bouwen,” denkt Hartjes. Dat de prijs in de toekomst omlaag kan: daar heeft ze alle vertrouwen in. “Als we de componenten straks groot in kunnen kopen, moet dat lukken.”

Nu ook commercieel aantrekkelijk
Het verhaal van Lightyear klinkt bijna te mooi om waar te zijn. Want als het technologisch gezien allemaal al lang mogelijk is en de consument erop zit te wachten: waarom heeft nog geen enkele autofabrikant zich dan aan de zonne-auto gewaagd? “Commercieel gezien is het allemaal nog maar kort haalbaar,” vertelt Hartjes. Eerder stonden de prijzen van zonnepanelen, carbonfiber en accu’s dergelijke experimenten nog niet toe. “Je ziet nu bijvoorbeeld pas dat ook Tesla gaat experimenteren met het integreren van zonnepanelen.” Maar dat ziet Hartjes niet als een bedreiging. “Wij bouwen de auto van onderen af op, om zoveel mogelijk rendement te maken. Je kunt wel zonnepanelen op het dak van een bestaande auto leggen, maar dan heb je te weinig oppervlak om echt alleen op zonne-energie te kunnen rijden.” Bovendien hebben deze oud-studenten iets in huis wat Tesla mist: ervaring. “De beste studenten van de Nederlandse technische universiteiten werken al heel lang met zonne-auto’s.”

Is dit dan de revolutie waar we al die tijd op gewacht hebben? Het zou zomaar kunnen, denkt Hartjes. “De zon is er elke dag en dankzij zonlicht kun je gratis schone kilometers maken. Dus ja, ik denk dat dit een gamechanger kan zijn.” Tegelijkertijd blijft er alle ruimte voor Hollandse nuchterheid. “Maar we moeten het natuurlijk nog wel laten zien.”

Tides on exoplanets could drive alien biological clocks

Time and tide help to get life going

Micha Pawlitzki/Getty

By Abigail Beall

Worlds with a permanent day and night side aren’t obvious places to look in the search for extraterrestrial life. Apart from having extremes of temperature, such planets would make it hard for a biological clock to get going.

But now it seems that if these worlds also have oceans, then tides could drive a biological clock just like a rising and setting sun would, according to a simulation by Avi Loeb and Manasvi Lingam at Harvard University.

We used to think that not having a day-night cycle would make it harder for life to emerge, because of the lack of a circadian clock. On Earth, these built-in timekeepers play an important role in several biological contexts, including reproduction.

Learn more about the hunt for alien life: At New Scientist Live in London

Of course, it’s possible to imagine aliens without biological clocks, but how life could evolve without one is difficult to imagine.

“There is abundant evidence that biological clocks are essential to modern life on Earth, and that biological clocks may have evolved very early in the history of life on Earth, either in cyanobacteria or in other single-celled organisms,” says Jennifer Macalady at Pennsylvania State University.

Tides make life tick

Loeb and Lingam’s study shows tides could play the role of timekeeper. If a planet with one side always facing its star has an elliptical orbit, the change in distance as it circles the star would create the back and forth pull needed for tides.

“Because of the small size of the habitable zone around stars like TRAPPIST-1, the tides are orders of magnitude larger than on Earth,” Loeb says.

Tides would form ponds as they go out, and can also help dissipate heat caused by volcanic activity or proximity to the planet’s star, mimicking periodic evaporation caused by a rising and setting sun. Each cycle would concentrate chemicals essential for the emergence of life. Eventually, life could evolve with its days and nights governed by the flow of the ocean.

This might sound alien, but even on Earth some animals’ biological clocks are set by the tides rather than the sun. So-called circatidal rhythms govern the lives of certain fish and crabs.

What kinds of worlds are likely to have a permanent day and night side? Some planets orbiting dwarf stars, like the nearby Proxima Centauri or TRAPPIST-1, are much closer to their host stars than we are to our sun. Because of this proximity, gravity from the star tugs much more at one side of a planet than the other, causing it to show the same face to its star throughout an orbit.

On such a “tidally locked” planet, the side facing away from the star would never receive light and could be too cold for life, while the side facing it could be too hot. The areas where life might develop would be on the border – the zone experiencing a constant “sunrise” or “sunset”.

“Work like this is important to inform our understanding of how life might evolve on the planets around other stars,” says Matt Burleigh at the University of Leicester, UK. “Oceanic tides may well be another factor that needs to be taken into account when speculating on life on planets around red dwarf stars like Proxima Centauri.”

Algal signals

Loeb and Lingam say these planets might be revealed to us through algal blooms that would change how the planet reflects its star’s light, in sync with the tides. But even if there is a signature there, seeing it might be tricky, says Jaymie Matthews at the University of British Columbia in Canada.

“Even if tidal blooms in an alien ocean are more extensive than in Earth’s, they are unlikely to be global,” he says.

“And they are not long-lasting, so the signature in the spectrum of exoplanet light will be diluted and intermittent.”

Mass UFO sighting reported in Serbia. Video

In Serbia, a local resident made a video of unidentified flying objects in the sky over the city of Doni Milanovac.

The video shows five bright UFOs lining up in triangles, changing the configuration and then disappearing. None of the objects looked like a star, and it is hard to ascribe the sighting to a natural phenomenon.

Earlier, another UFO sighting was reported in the sky over Chile. A V-shaped unidentified flying object was hovering in the night sky. The strange phenomenon was noticed by Roberto Antezana.

He is not the first to witness unusual manifestations from outer space. At first, the scientist decided that this was a Japanese satellite. However, the UFO was hovering in the sky for 35 minutes, which made the astrophysicist doubt its earthly origin. Inside the V-shaped nebula, there were other objects of unknown origin.

Watching the skies for mysterious UFOs

Do you believe in little grey men?

Blackpool is now a growing hub for those who want to believe, as a network for reported UFO sightings opens in the resort.

Tim Bartrop, 52, founded the Lancashire UFO Sightings Network in his youth, and now hopes to revive the club to provide the people of Blackpool with a viable alternative to the Ministry Of Defence’s UFO desk, which closed down in 2009.

He said: “The Ministry of Defence closed down its UFO service in 2009 and since then nobody has had anything to report UFO sightings to.

“That’s why I have opened this up in Blackpool.”

Tim, who lives off Central Drive, was inspired to form a group for believers to report their findings after his first and only encounter with the unexplained while growing up in Darnall, Sheffield.

He said: “I decided to call for my best friend at the time , who lived three doors up from me.

“As we were both star gazers we decided to go to the bottom of the street where the park is to get a better view of the sky above Darnall.

“We both had noticed this bright light in the sky, as well as other stars moving towards us.

“They were rectangle in shape and three of them joined up. It was very bright, with no sound. They must have been about 500 yards above the houses.

” He now hopes to encourage the people of Blackpool to come forward with stories of their own UFO sightings.

He said: “Blackpool and Lancashire is a hotspot for UFO sightings.”

Two UFOs were said to have been spotted in the sky over Fleetwood in 2015, and one over Lytham and St Annes the year before.

People who wish to report a UFO sighting to the Lancashire UFO Sighting Network (LUFOS) can email report.lufos@gmail.com.

Why looking for aliens is good for society (even if there aren't any)

by Ian Crawford, The Conversation

The search for life elsewhere in the universe is one of the most compelling aspects of modern science. Given its scientific importance, significant resources are devoted to this young science of astrobiology, ranging from rovers on Mars to telescopic observations of planets orbiting other stars.

The holy grail of all this activity would be the actual discovery of alien life, and such a discovery would likely have profound scientific and philosophical implications. But extraterrestrial life has not yet been discovered, and for all we know may not even exist. Fortunately, even if alien life is never discovered, all is not lost: simply searching for it will yield valuable benefits for society.

Why is this the case?

First, astrobiology is inherently multidisciplinary. To search for aliens requires a grasp of, at least, astronomy, biology, geology, and planetary science. Undergraduate courses in astrobiology need to cover elements of all these different disciplines, and postgraduate and postdoctoral astrobiology researchers likewise need to be familiar with most or all of them.

By forcing multiple scientific disciplines to interact, astrobiology is stimulating a partial reunification of the sciences. It is helping to move 21st-century science away from the extreme specialisation of today and back towards the more interdisciplinary outlook that prevailed in earlier times.

By producing broadminded scientists, familiar with multiple aspects of the natural world, the study of astrobiology therefore enriches the whole scientific enterprise. It is from this cross-fertilization of ideas that future discoveries may be expected, and such discoveries will comprise a permanent legacy of astrobiology, even if they do not include the discovery of alien life.

It is also important to recognise that astrobiology is an incredibly open-ended endeavour. Searching for life in the universe takes us from extreme environments on Earth, to the plains and sub-surface of Mars, the icy satellites of the giant planets, and on to the all-but-infinite variety of planets orbiting other stars. And this search will continue regardless of whether life is actually discovered in any of these environments or not. The range of entirely novel environments opened to investigation will be essentially limitless, and so has the potential to be a never-ending source of scientific and intellectual stimulation.

Beyond the more narrowly intellectual benefits of astrobiology are a range of wider societal benefits. These arise from the kinds of perspectives – cosmic in scale – that the study of astrobiology naturally promotes.

It is simply not possible to consider searching for life on Mars, or on a planet orbiting a distant star, without moving away from the narrow Earth-centric perspectives that dominate the social and political lives of most people most of the time. Today, the Earth is faced with global challenges that can only be met by increased international cooperation. Yet around the world, nationalistic and religious ideologies are acting to fragment humanity. At such a time, the growth of a unifying cosmic perspective is potentially of enormous importance.

In the early years of the space age, the then US ambassador to the United Nations, Adlai Stevenson, said of the world: "We can never again be a squabbling band of nations before the awful majesty of outer space." Unfortunately, this perspective is yet to sink deeply into the popular consciousness. On the other hand, the wide public interest in the search for life elsewhere means that astrobiology can act as a powerful educational vehicle for the popularisation of this perspective.

Indeed, it is only by sending spacecraft out to explore the solar system, in large part for astrobiological purposes, that we can obtain images of our own planet that show it in its true cosmic setting.

In addition, astrobiology provides an important evolutionary perspective on human affairs. It demands a sense of deep, or big, history. Because of this, many undergraduate astrobiology courses begin with an overview of the history of the universe. This begins with the Big Bang and moves successively through the origin of the chemical elements, the evolution of stars, galaxies, and planetary systems, the origin of life, and evolutionary history from the first cells to complex animals such as ourselves. Deep history like this helps us locate human affairs in the vastness of time, and therefore complements the cosmic perspective provided by space exploration.

Political implications

There is a well-known aphorism, widely attributed to the Prussian naturalist Alexander von Humboldt, to the effect that "the most dangerous worldview is the worldview of those who have not viewed the world". Humboldt was presumably thinking about the mind-broadening potential of international travel. But familiarity with the cosmic and evolutionary perspectives provided by astrobiology, powerfully reinforced by actual views of the Earth from space, can surely also act to broaden minds in such a way as to make the world less fragmented and dangerous.

I think there is an important political implication inherent in this perspective: as an intelligent technological species, that now dominates the only known inhabited planet in the universe, humanity has a responsibility to develop international social and political institutions appropriate to managing the situation in which we find ourselves.

In concluding his monumental Outline of History in 1925, HG Wells famously observed: "Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe." Such an observation appears especially germane to the geopolitical situation today, where apparently irrational decisions, often made by governments (and indeed by entire populations) seemingly ignorant of broader perspectives, may indeed lead our planet to catastrophe.

THE FERMI PARADOX: WHY HAVEN’T WE FOUND ALIEN LIFE ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE UNIVERSE?

The Search for Extraterrestrial Life

The case for UFOs in North Yorkshire

Posted by: Philip Mantle 

When I first decided to take an active role in UFO research and investigation I consider myself very fortunate to join the Yorkshire UFO Society (YUFOS) which was formed in the early 1980’s by brothers Graham and Mark Birdsall. Many of you may well know that Graham went on to publish and edit the hugely successful newsstand publication UFO MAGAZINE.

Graham and Mark Birdsall (Credit: Philip Mantle)

Graham and Mark were extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic and I leaned a lot from the both of them. I also consider it very fortunate that at the same time as joining YUFOS that we were literally swamped with UFO reports. In the early 1980’s we had more reports than we knew what to do with. A lot of these sightings came from areas in North Yorkshire and especially around the moors above the village of Carleton near Skipton.

Much of our work and UFO case files from that era have been lost along the way but some information does still exist. In the early days of YUFOS we printed the small publication the YUFOS JOURNAL.  What I would like to do is to re-publish an article written by mark Birdsall which featured in the May 1983 YUFOS JOURNAL – VOLUME 2 Number 2.

YUFOS Volume 1

The Following article by Mark Birdsall shows exactly what I have been talking about and will hopefully give you some idea of what we were dealing with at the time.

The Case For North Yorkshire:

During the last 24 months we have received no fewer than 30 reports of unusual objects observed in North Yorkshire. We have on record, reports of objects coming within 50ft of experienced police officers. In fact we have been able to collect a number-of UFO reports, and build a careful picture of what is really happening in North Yorkshire. But first let us look at the information these cases contain. It is only fair to point out that a very large percentage .of sightings are made from experienced police officers. We have signed statements from many o£ the officers and all lead us to believe, that without a shadow of doubt, something unusual is taking place in and around the moors of North Yorkshire. However, through careful” research there are as many as 90% of the cases we cannot explain. We could state that it might have been a helicopter, or an aircraft. We cannot overlook who are making the observations.

Every possible cause for the sighting of an UFO has to be examined. The area, the description, weather conditions etc.  But after researching all of these possibilities we cannot give a viable explanation. Many people then came forward to offer a possible answer. We again examined these, but even as objective researchers we must rule out these. For the reports we have, “contain diagrams and information, which if authentic (and we have no doubts that they are) leads .us to believe that, there is something highly unusual being observed in North Yorkshire. In fact there have been times when we have not been able to grasp the enormity of the situation we have found ourselves in. Is it coincidence that our only photographic evidence came from North Yorkshire, and as yet, has eluded all possible attempts by experts to conclude the photograph explainable hoax etc? Can we reach the position when we can confidently state, that all the information, statements, and photographic evidence is explainable; the answer must be NO.

If we now turn to the collection of reports we have assembled for this publication. On the map, vie have eight positions o It would be impossible to print all our ·cases, so we have selected these complete with diagrams and drawings. The area is proximately 3 miles by 2. The prominent lines across the map are other sightings, relating to the direction in which these objects were seen.

Sighting 1:

The information behind this sighting has yet to be released, however. This particular object was observed by a policeman and a member of the public. At approximately 12.30am both people noticed a large ball of light moving very slowly in their direction. The object was slightly yellowish in colour and was approximately 500ft above the ground. At this moment both persons noticed an aircraft possibly 20,000ft heading in, and over the UFO. At this precise moment the object moved off its original course and after seemingly heading towards the witnesses, altered its course. The object was now parallel to the observers, and it was at this moment one of the witnesses trained his binoculars on the yellow mass. He could clearly see that the yellow ‘oval was in fact the front of a large cigar shape. A red light which had been hidden by the yellow glow was now defined through, use of the binoculars. It was on the side of the object, yet the witness mentioned the red light slowly moved closer to the main yellow light. One can note the comparison in size to the yellow light. Also note the dark area on the underside of the main body of the object. As the object moved slowly away from the witnesses, a ‘small band of yellow lights’ flashed across the centre of the object, giving the impression that the UFO was revolving.  The sighting lasted approximately 2 minutes.

Sighting 2:

This very detailed description was given, again by police officers from North Yorkshire. At approximately 5.20 am on Oct 24th, 1982, three police officers who had just 5 minutes earlier observed at close range an array of circular lights noticed a bright strip of light moving very close to the policemen’s original position. (The officers had tried to follow the circular of lights and had driven down the hill a few hundred yards). The object was crescent shaped, and although very bright it did not give off a beam. The UFO moved directly over the officers and one officer commented “it was so low you could have thrown a rock at it”.  The object was in fact, just 75-100ft above their heads. At this point the full, length of light intensified, but again did not give off a beam. There are two points to make note of at no time during the sighting was any sound a heard, and notably, an array of red and white lights was clearly around the perimeter (underside) of the object.

Sighting 3:

Illustration of sighting by MODO.

As mentioned in the last report (sighting 2), this particular sighting was made 5 minutes earlier than the object witnessed is sighting 2. However the officers did not see the UFO approach, nor did they hear any sound. One policeman just looked up into the dark sky and observed the lights slowly moving over their patrol car. The officers state the object was very low. Is it conceivable that the officers had made an error in their observation? Three men, so close to an object they could clearly define, the answer must again be no, even to more objective or sceptical researchers. We now turn our attention to a member of the public, who along with his family experienced a terrifying encounter.

Sighting 4:

Illustration of sighting by MODO.

Mr. X and his family were traveling along the road that leaves the village of Carlton near Skipton. The road rises up and over the moors near Elslack. The family were heading for the supermarket in Colne, a journey they made once a week. They had reached an are known as Standrise Plantation, Mr X then looked through his mirror and noticed 2 coloured balls of light (red & green) moving closer to the car. The balls then buzzed’ the family before moving level with the car. The balls then started to pace the car. The objects themselves were no larger than footballs and both were situated on either side of the car. They continued to fly alongside the car at window height. The occupants in the car became extremely frightened; Mr X was now finding it very hard to keep the car under control. Mrs X was shouting at her husband to turn the car round and return home. The two children were now screaming with fright, and their pet dog was cowering in the back seat. The dog then tried to get beneath the footwell in the car. Mr X had, had enough, he turned the car around and headed back home, the balls of light, also decided to turn around and follow the car. The lights again tracked the family for a short while, before disappearing. Mr X and his family returned home in a very poor state, and since the incident took place, they have not travelled along the moors again.

They use a road which takes them around the area. This particular incident took place in March 1980, and again we cannot find a plausible explanation. The investigator of this case was Alwyn Rogers and he made an interesting comment when typing the report up. He pointed out that Mr X was finding it difficult to control his car was the caused by fright or outside interference? Most members will remember the encounter involving Mrs X, at Coniston Cutting, although the case has almost ended due to circumstances which we are not in the position to control. It is hoped that one day we will be able to start the case moving again. Due to the fact that every member has detailed knowledge of this case, I will just present the outlying factors. Mrs X was followed by a small cluster of lights, shortly after she had left her mothers home. Although she could not define the object which was following her, she was adamant it was not a vehicle. Although at first she mentioned in the report, ‘that she felt· the lorry was taking a long time to overtake her.’ The lights were pacing the car and then she noticed a beam of light strike the side of the car from above her. The incident occurred in March 1982, and as most members are aware our investigation led us to use hypnotic regression for the first ·time. Mrs X had lost approximately 40 minutes on her journey home from her mother’s house in Morecambe. During the investigation, many efforts were made to explain the missing minutes; as yet the loss of such a large amount of time remains a mystery, not only to us, but also to the witness.

We are totally convinced that the initial report and information received is true, however we cannot possibly state that the information which we received .through the regression is fact. Again we have a case which involves a high degree of strangeness, and again in North Yorkshire.

Sightings 5 & 6:

Moving to sightings which most researchers would class as nocturnal lights. We have had no fewer than 60 reports of these objects. And I stress the word object. For I myself have observed them on no fewer than three occasions. These objects are quite clearly oval and circular depending on the angle they are viewed at. A number of investigators have seen these particular objects at close range. Sceptics pour .scorn on these sightings and declare them nothing more than· helicopters or aircraft. I agree that probably a number of sightings are explainable. But through careful research we find that on no occasion has any sound ever been heard, and also the majority of these objects are traveling just 400 feet above the ground. Many of the witnesses state that the object seemed to be following the contours of the moors.

Carleton moors.

Would it be conceivable to find aircraft flying at such a dangerous height? One must also note the speed of these objects, most observers’ state that they were traveling at speeds of no more than 40 – 50 mph. One interesting case involving one of these objects occurred in November last year. Two witnesses were on moors near Carlton, when they noticed a bright yellow light moving slowly over the hills. The approximate height of the object was 400ft. Both witnesses then observed an aeroplane heading towards the object (20,000ft). The object then changed course and moved behind a nearby hill. The witnesses watched the aeroplane move quickly out of sight. They were then amazed to see the yellow ball of light move from behind the hillside and continue its silent journey across the moors. These particular sightings are difficult to assess, and the in formation which they contain is limited. A comment by the witnesses who see these objects repeats it’ self throughout the statements made by the witnesses, this is, that on· no occasion did the observer see any other lights. Or in fact a solid body beneath the· glow however if we return to object one on the diagrams, the witnesses state that until they observed the object with binoculars they could see only the brilliant yellow glow. It would seem that the intense light .of the object distorted the actual shape; however this all remains conjecture at the moment.

Sighting 7:

Illustration of sighting by MODO.

One of the most spectacular sightings we have on record is this observation made by two North Yorkshire police officers. This sighting occurred on the moors just East of Cononley. The time was 3.20 am when both officers noticed an extremely bright light moving directly towards their position. No definition could be seen and the UFO moved directly over their position. The height of the object was approximately 200ft it was then that the object turned slightly to one side· (tilted). The officers were startled with regard to the actual shape and size of the object. Both· men estimated the length of the object to be approximately 100ft. The entire object was glowing and the lower ‘skirt’ was revolving. Three large balls on the underside could clearly be seen. ‘Portholes’ which were darker than the rest of the object were also seen. From an objective point of view, this case is almost too good to believe. But we have no doubts whatsoever regarding the information in this report, that the officers did in fact observe an unusual craft. It would be difficult not to relate such a ·detailed account if the object passed over your head at just 200feet. Many similarities have been made with the ‘Adamski’ photographs; however the witnesses state the object they observed appeared more streamlined than the alleged photographs taken by George Adamski. In any event, serious investigators do· not lay much foundation with regard to Adamski ‘s claims. However; critics would find it very difficult to try and explain to the officers involved with this sighting, that what they had observed was an IFO.

Sighting 8:

One of the most famous UFO cases in Britain was the Livingston close encounter, in Scotland. The witness (Robert Taylor) was apparently ‘attacked’ by two circular spiked objects. These small objects have led researchers to drawn up similarities with this sighting and the Livingstone incident. Three witnesses observed a small object zig – zagging across Elslack Moor. A series of rods and white lights could. Be seen revolving around the small body of the 0bject. It was approximately 4ft above the ground. They then noticed a beam of light being emitted from the underside directly onto the ground. At one point the object came within 50ft of the witnesses. Due to the circumstances which were about to follow we feel this object was in some way connected to the objects which were observed a few minutes later. We did send a ground team to the area, and one or two marks were noticed, but it would be difficult to relate them to this sighting. All we can say is that they were quite similar to marks found in the ground with regard to the Livingston case.

In this study we have just scraped the surface on the information which our case files contain. But our attention has been drawn to the area, not just because of the amount of sightings, but also the high strangeness of the cases.

END

I have to say that I personally remember many of these sightings being reported to us at YUFOS and I also participated in the research and investigation of some of them. There is no doubt in my mind that many of them still remain unexplained. Carlton moor and surrounding areas near Skipton in North Yorkshire was a hot bed for UFO sightings. In those days it was termed a ‘window area’ while today you might call it a ‘portal’. I prefer window area personally. Our research also uncovered UFO sighting in the area going back decades so one this was for sure and that was that the wave of sightings in the area in the 1980’s was nothing new.

To be actively involved in UFO investigations during this time period was the ideal apprenticeship for any would-b UFO enthusiast and I consider myself to be very fortunate to have been there at the time. There was a period that we had more sightings reported that we could handle.

Of course all things must come to an end and YUFOS did but Graham went on with his brother Mark to publish UFO MAGAZINE and stage many highly successful UFO conference the like of which have not been seen again since Graham’s untimely death. I just hope I’m still around when the next ‘flap’ occurs around the moors above Skipton as I am in no doubt it will happen one day.

Witness says cloaking ‘UFO’ had USAF insignia

A California witness at Moorpark reported watching an odd object with cloaking abilities with the words “USAF 003” on its tail stabilizer, according to testimony in Case 84601 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was sitting in a restaurant drive-thru lane at 11:24 a.m. on June 25, 2017, when the incident occurred.

“Looking right at it, my eyes hurt to look at it,” the witness stated. “It is using some kind of neural confusion. It was like trying to look at a needle coming at your eye. It gave off some type of electrical interference, and seemed to rotate radially even though it was stationary. It looked big enough to hold one or two people.”

But the witness stated that there were letters and numbers on the object that were readable.

“I could see very clearly on the tail stabilizer, USAF 003, in white paint. There were bright, silver fixtures and they had solid beacon lights that were white. The tail moved independent of the fuselage. There was a cockpit windscreen/canopy. It was non-reflective, silver material, that had a very odd indentation. It looked like a cookie sheet with a larger section around it to extend it, like a top hat.”

The witness seemed to think that the object was cloaking itself.

“The electrical interference seemed to pick up. It disturbed another one just like it in formation next to it and I could see an illusion effect and then nothing as the cloak reengaged and they were gone. There was an inaudible, pulse-like concussion as well. I said, ‘holy (blank)’ and it went over the microphone to the drive-thru guy, and he said, ‘hold on.’ And it definitely changed the electromagnetism around us. Something felt off. The air was empty. It felt like a rug had been pulled out from underneath the air. It’s hard to explain. They were about 400 feet above the 118 overpass in Moorpark, California. I swear by this statement and its truth. The metal looked old, and was matte-like. It did not pick up light like high gloss paint. I’ve been going through books since I came home. It’s good to know it’s us that has this stuff.”

The witness included three illustrations with the report, which was filed on June 25, 2017. California MUFON Field Investigator Rick Browman is investigating. Moorpark is a city in Ventura County in Southern California, population 34,421. 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.

Cracking The Mystery Of The ‘Worldwide Hum’

{ http://www.iflscience.com/ }

Our world is a noisy place. Everywhere we go there is a veritable cacophony of noise pervading our surroundings, ranging from the sound of civilization, with its factories, construction, airplanes, and myriad vehicles with their roaring engines and speaking their language of honks and beeps, to the natural sounds of the wind, animals, and the earth’s various activities. Even in the realm of things we cannot physically hear there is noise, with the atmosphere saturated by all manner of low-frequency sounds both artificial and natural, as well as the countless waves and transmissions that give us our radio, TV shows, satellite information, and cell phone usage. Yet even beyond this there seems to be something more creeping about in the background, some ill-defined and persistent noise that only some can hear and which remains unexplained.

What has come to be mostly referred to as simply “The Hum,” or sometimes “The Worldwide Hum,” is a blanket term for a series of mysterious, inexplicable auditory phenomena that has emerged all across the world, and which typically entails a low frequency, persistent bass droning or rumbling noise, heard both indoors and outdoors and with no readily identifiable source or origin. It has been described as sounding like different things by different people, but a common description is that it sounds rather like an idling truck or industrial fan, and can vary in intensity from a general low bass background grumble to an invasive, ear piercing symphony of noise, depending on the person and location. This hum is most typically reported from rural or sparsely populated areas, but not always, and it is usually most noticeable in the evening hours, although this also depends on the person hearing it.

It is difficult to track down just when the phenomenon started, but it has apparently been around since at least the 1940s, when hundreds of people in the London and Southampton areas of Great Britain complained of a noticeable drone, and probably since much earlier. The 1950s and 1960s also saw the hum become widely publicized in the news and entering the public consciousness with various other reports from all over Great Britain, and in the 1970s there was a veritable media circus over the odd, persistent sound in Bristol, England, where complaints flooded in when many residents reported hearing it. The phenomenon would continue in Great Britain into the 1980s, where it was widely heard by residents in Largs, Scotland, a coastal town about 31 km west of Glasgow.

The Hum made perhaps its most famous debut in North America in 1992, when people in and around the town of Taos, New Mexico, began to report the sound, which has since become known as the “Taos Hum” and is probably the most well-known location for the phenomenon. The Hum also appeared in the United States in Kokomo, Indiana, in 1999, where it seems to have had a particularly potent effect, allegedly causing various negative physical symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, and joint pain, to the point that many who heard it purportedly moved away to escape it. An in-depth investigation into the source of the Kokomo Hum by the Board of Public Works and Safety could not determine exactly what caused it. In the years since, the Hum has gone on to be reported from numerous other locations from all over the world, in such far-flung places as Italy, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico, among others, to the point where an attempt to chart the phenomena, called The World Hum Database and Mapping Project, was launched in 2012, containing a huge database of hum reports and locations all over the planet.

The hum phenomenon cannot be heard by everyone, and it has been estimated through studies in the U.S. and Great Britain that only about 2 percent of the population are actually susceptible to it, both male and female and usually those of middle age or older. For those who do hear it, often referred to as “Hummers,” the description of the hum is often very similar, and it is claimed that earplugs do nothing to stop the relentless drone or reduce its volume in any way. Although the description of the sound itself is mostly consistent, the situations in which these people can hear the sound can vary, for instance with some hearing it more often indoors while others are more prone to picking it up outdoors, and some hearing it more at night while others are affected only during the day. The volume and intensity of the Hum can vary between individuals as well, with some only faintly picking it up as an annoying but harmless static of sorts, while for others it can be absolutely blaring and some even reporting feeling it vibrate through their bodies or homes.

For the people who are very sensitive to the noise, it can supposedly be a deeply unsettling, life-altering experience; a nightmare in a sense. It can apparently cause a wealth of symptoms, ranging from ear pain, headaches, nosebleeds, and nausea, to more debilitating problems such as fainting or chronic pain in various parts of the body. It also allegedly alters emotional states, causes memory loss, impaired speech, and diminishes overall energy levels. The Hum has caused people to do drastic things, like sell their homes and move away, quit their jobs, spiral into depression, and in some extreme cases has even driven people to suicide. One sufferer named Hugh Witherington began to hear the Hum upon moving away from his home of London, England, to the quiet countryside of Hertfordshire, and has been continuously terrorized by it ever since, explaining it thus:

It sounded like a lorry had stopped outside my window and left its engine idling. No amount of exposure ever gets me used to it. It stops me from thinking, even now. I cannot accept it.

Another example of a sufferer whose life has been deeply affected by The Hum, 46-year-old Rosemarie Mann, of Romsey, England, claims that she is so plagued by the potent and nonstop noise that it has profoundly changed her life in the worst of ways. She says that it had dragged her down into depression, for which she now takes medication, diminished her will to live, and has strained her marriage. It is something she has to wrestle with every day, and she has said of the harrowing experience:

I can only describe it as a kind of torture. For the first few years I lost sleep, couldn’t concentrate and was unable to do anything. I was constantly in tears, which put a great strain on my husband. It has changed me from an active, creative person to a stifled, angry pessimist. The Hum still has a terrible draining effect. It is the invasiveness and relentlessness of the noise and having no understanding or control of it which makes it so distressing.

There have been numerous theories on what The Hum could be, ranging from the rational to the truly outlandish. One of the simplest explanations that has been offered is that these people are suffering from a fairly common condition called tinnitus, which is a perceived noise or ringing in the ears with no external cause and which can be caused by factors as varied as noise induced deafness, ear infections, head injuries, or mental conditions such as emotional stress or depression. The problem with this is that Hummers are adamant that the noise is produced externally, also saying that it is a much different sound than tinnitus, and furthermore the hum seems to be generally heard in clusters tied to certain locations.

Similar to this theory is that The Hum could be the result of various internal physical or mental causes which are causing some sort of auditory hallucinations, or perhaps it is caused by medication or toxins. The hum has also been speculated to perhaps be the result of sudden noises generated by our own inner ears, called “spontaneous otoacoustic emissions.” It has also been suggested that the hum is merely all in these people’s heads and that it is a combination of over-imagining and mass hysteria or mass delusion fueled by the Internet. In this scenario, these people are just imagining it all, or are having their senses and perceptions colored by what they have read about the mysterious Worldwide Hum.

There is also the widespread idea that The Hum is caused by some mechanical source, such as cooling towers, industrial plants, ventilator fans, generators, and so on. While this may be true in some cases, and has even been shown as such in some instances, in others The Hum has persisted even when such factors were eliminated, and additionally in many cases the sound has not been successfully tracked down to any particular mechanical source. Another manmade potential cause for The Hum put forward has been electrical grids or cell phone towers, but even if these are the origin in some more modern cases, cell towers were not around when the hum phenomenon started taking off. Also, even if the cause is somehow mechanical in nature it still does not explain why only a small percentage of human beings even seem to be affected by the hum, and to varying degrees.

Very Low Frequency (VLF) radio transmissions (between 3 kHz and 30 kHz), could also be the answer to the phenomenon, especially as it has been surmised that the human body can sometimes register electromagnetic waves as actual sounds. It could also be the result of any number of low or ultra-low frequency sounds or infrasound, those just on the threshold of human hearing, either human generated or by natural phenomena such as earthquakes or other seismic activity, and volcanic or tectonic plate activity, as well as pressure waves reverberating across the seafloor. Another natural source that has been proposed is that the sound is caused by the mating calls of certain species of fish, but in most cases any significant drone caused by this requires a boat hull to amplify it, and it has been argued that these sounds on their own would be insufficient to be a convincing candidate. With any of these explanations, we are still faced with the apparent fact that only some people can hear it.

If there is such a mundane cause for The Hum, then it seems fairly clear that whatever it is mostly likely stems from a combination of all of these, depending on the person, place, and the situation, with no one theory fitting every case. Of course with a phenomenon as mysterious and still largely unexplained as The Hum, there are certainly more far-out theories floating around as well. For some The Hum is indicative of a deep dark, government conspiracy complete with secret, shadowy experiments, mind-control devices, and cover-ups. Some have suggested that it is even a secret weapon utilizing focused ultra-low frequency waves and perched upon a satellite, which can beam down to target individuals or groups of people. For others it is the result of someone or something tunneling through the earth. There are also, of course, aliens. Why not? Still others claim that this is just something that originates in forces that currently lie outside of our understanding, but which we may someday fathom.

One of the problems posing an obstacle to coming to any real answers with the Worldwide Hum is that there have only been a handful of people who have ever tried to seriously study it, and those who have claimed to have experienced it are still largely dismissed and thought to be just “hearing things,” even as the number of reports and complaints from such people has been steadily increasing in recent years. Those who have looked into the problem with open eyes have been unable to come to a clear conclusion that can totally explain the breadth of the phenomenon. They simply don’t know what causes it or why it happens. It seems to be for now a strange phenomenon that is doomed to be just an anomaly that we may never fully understand, and that those who hear it will most likely just have to deal with it, to live with the incessant drone echoing through their head, possibly without ever knowing just exactly what it is they are hearing.

What is at the heart of the Worldwide Hum phenomena? Is this the result of artificial or natural frequencies or phenomena that some people are just more inclined to be sensitive to, or maybe some effect that we have yet to come to a clear understanding of? Is it some sort of radio waves or electromagnetic or sonic interference? Is it secret government experiments or weapons, aliens, or something more paranormal in nature? Perhaps at some point we will have more of an idea of what lies behind this strange background noise that seems to permeate some locations throughout the world and unravel its mysteries, but until then it will rumble on with its origin and purpose unknown.

BOER UIT ARIZONA, USA, IN HEFTIGE STRIJD GEWIKKELD MET GRAY ALIENS ( VIDEO )

Op een grote ranch in Arizona ziet men aliens liever gaan dan komen, want de ervaringen die men daar tot nu toe heeft met deze entiteiten zijn niet echt prettig. 

Boer John Edmonds heeft genoeg van deze wezens die zijn dieren aanvallen en verwonden en gaat ze te lijf met een Samoerai zwaard. 

Via een lezer (dank!) werden wij opmerkzaam gemaakt op een bijzonder verhaal. 

Het begint bij een interview in 2015 van Project Camelot met een boer uit Arizona, John Edmonds. 

In dat gesprek claimt John dat zijn ranch in Rainbow Valley waar hij met zijn vrouw woont, is geïnfiltreerd door Gray aliens. Deze vallen zijn dieren aan en richten nog meer ander kwaad ook aan. Edmonds zegt dat hij acht van die Grays heeft gedood door hen te doorboren met een Samoerai zwaard. Wanneer hij ze doorsteekt met dat zwaard, dan verdwijnen ze, dus wordt het een moeilijke zaak om te bewijzen dat hij deze Gray’s heeft gedood. Wel zegt hij te beschikken over hun lichaamsvloeistoffen en heeft deze laten onderzoeken. Daaruit blijkt ontegenzeggelijk dat ze “niet van deze wereld zijn” en niet menselijk. 

In de volgende video de hoogtepunten uit dat eerste interview dat in totaal ongeveer twee en een half uur in beslag nam. 

 

Vrij snel na dit interview kwam er een update op de site van Project Camelot met enkele foto’s die zouden zijn genomen op de ranch van Edmonds. 

Deze zegt dat degene die de foto’s heeft genomen honderd procent betrouwbaar is en dat de beelden echt zijn. Hij zegt verder niet te weten of deze Gray’s daar echt rondliepen op dat moment of dat het een soort hologrammen waren omdat hij daar op de ranch acht van hen heeft gedood. 

Hoe dan ook, de foto’s zijn echt.

Tijdens een ander interview enige tijd later gebeurde er ook iets bijzonders zoals te zien in de volgende korte clip. 

John Edmonds zit voor de camera te praten via Skype, terwijl er een Gray om de hoek komt kijken. 

 

Kerry Cassidy van Project Camelot vond het verhaal dermate interessant dat ze besloot om zelf een bezoek te brengen aan de ranch. 

Tijdens dat bezoek filmde de crew de volgende UFO boven de ranch.

Een fascinerend verhaal over vortexen, verminkte dieren, het doden van Grays en nog veel meer.

Two Large UFOs Spotted In The Sky Over Chelmsford

A man claimed to have spotted two large UFOs in the sky above Chelmsford. The unnamed resident allegedly saw the objects over Manor Road where he resides on Monday afternoon, July 17.

According to the witness, the two UFOs were in different shapes, which were first spotted by a group of people outside the city centre. The reporting witness said he saw a small group of passersby looking up in the sky from his garden. He also looked up and saw two large objects in the air.

The UFOs were reportedly black underneath and quite big and high up. They were allegedly kind of rolling over and over in the air.

The reporting witness first thought they were giant balloons, but later realised that they should not move like the UFOs. His second thought was bits of plastic, but the UFOs were moving faster than the wind. He stated that one of the strange objects was a cylinder shape and the other one was longer. He also did not think that they were aeroplanes.

The witness rushed inside to get his camera, but when he came back outside, the UFOs had moved further away, but he still managed to get a few snaps.

The witness added that the two mysterious aerial objects appeared to be nearly linked together as they kept at around the same distance apart the entire time.

The witness watched them moved into the distance towards the cricket ground and lost sight of them.

The Government Cover Up Case: UFO Disabled 10 US Nukes in Silos

Fifty years of fabricated alien sightings faked cover-ups, and false alien abductions have discredited the aliens in the individuals’ mind, to the extent that when the real ones appear, may be neglected. In fact, the brainwashing activity of the masses was so successful that if an actual alien spacecraft were to come forward, and then hover directly on top of the skies, they would succeed in explaining it as a secret experiment or any other usual objects.

In past times, people were burned at stake for merely believing in the existence of extraterrestrial life. Today, there seems to be less burning at stake, but other than that, nothing has significantly changed. Then, as now, extraterrestrial intelligence remains an obstacle for war-minded humans. It is normal for the US government to take measures in protecting its military activities from all harm.

A former US Air Force captain revealed an extraordinary alien incident allegedly involving the destruction of the nuclear weapons. Captain David D Schindele used to be a Minuteman I intercontinental ballistic missile launch crew commander working in the Minot Air Force Base missile field situated in North Dakota. The incident took place in December 1996 when he was at the launch control facility. He claims that extraterrestrials destroyed ten nuclear missiles, making them useless in the facility. He was in charge of the nuclear weapons. Days after the incident, it was reported that UFOs are seen in the area. Unfortunately, air force officials ordered him to mum about the incident, and beg to erase the incident from his memory.

He admitted that many of his colleagues experienced unearthly incidents at the Minuteman facilities, but they were all instructed to keep silent. He then decided to write a book after hearing similar incident encountered by another missileer. The rationale behind his exposure is the idea that there can be no moral, ethical, or crucial reason to keep the happening a secret from humankind.

His book is available at Amazon.com, and the proceeds will go to the Seattle Chapter of the Air Force Association.

Filer’s Files #30 – 2017 UFO the Greatest Story Ever -  PART II

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND Returning To Theaters - And Here's The New Trailer

Credit: Sony Pictures

Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind is returning to theaters nearly 40 years to the day it was originally released in 1977. Spielberg's own director's cut of the film was restored with 4k resolution, and will hit theaters this fall.

Here is a new trailer:

‘THEIR SHIPS WERE FAR SUPERIOR TO OURS – BOY, WERE THEY BIG! – NEIL ARMSTRONG [VIDEO]

Armstrong: I can’t go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours both in size and technology – Boy, were they big! … And menacing … No, there is no question of a space station.

Is there an occult reason why NASA hasn’t returned to the moon in decades? There are so many mysteries connected with the Apollo missions and the programs’ abrupt end. Many Ufologists have claimed throughout the years that the real reason why NASA decided to end the Apollo program are the numerous structures and alien objects the astronauts found while touching down on the lunar surface.

According to reports, Armstrong stated in an interview with an unnamed professor at a symposium that the Astronauts presence on the moon during the Apollo missions was immediately noticed by advanced alien civilizations who addressed mankind’s visitation to the moon during the Apollo 11 mission upon touchdown. These alleged ‘beings’ immediately revealed themselves occupying lunar space making it very clear mankind was not welcome on the surface of the moon.

Armstrong: It was incredible … of course, we had always known there was a possibility … the fact is, we were warned off. There was never any questions then of a space station or a moon city.

Professor: How do you mean “warned off”?

Armstrong: I can’t go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours both in size and technology – Boy, were they big! … and menacing … No, there is no question of a space station.

Armstrong: Naturally – NASA was committed at that time, and couldn’t risk a panic on earth…. But it really was a quick scoop and back again. (Above Top Secret, p. 186)

Interestingly a video posted on YouTube allegedly recorded in 1969 by Neil Armstrong backs up the story about mankind and their ‘alien’ encounters on the surface of the moon. According to the video posted online, the alleged footage was filmed in 1969 by Neil Armstrong and shows ancient ‘alien’ structures on the surface of the moon. Many people around the globe argue that it isn’t a question anymore whether or not there are mysterious ‘Alien’ structures on the moon. This video, according to many is the ultimate proof.

Armstrong wasn’t the only astronaut to come forward claiming mankind was ‘intercepted’ on the moon.

Dr. Edgar Mitchell, ScD., former NASA astronaut and the 6th man to walk on the moon said: “Read the books, read the lore, start to understand what has really been going on, because there is no doubt that we are being visited. . . . The universe that we live in is much more wondrous, exciting, complex and far-reaching than we were ever able to know up to this point in time. . . . [Mankind has long wondered if we’re] alone in the universe. [But] only in our period do we really have evidence. No, we’re not alone.”

Is there life on Titan? Cassini finds molecule 'instrumental' to life in the hazy atmosphere of Saturn’s moon

• Cassini found molecules said to be 'vital stepping stone' to complex molecules
• The researchers say these may be the building blocks for life-creating molecules
• The discovery could help to explain the processes that led to life on Earth

By Cheyenne Macdonald For Dailymail.com

In the hazy atmosphere of Saturn’s moon Titan, scientists have discovered molecules thought to be the building-blocks of the complex organic compounds that make life possible.

The surprise new find from the NASA/ESA Cassini mission means the massive moon is now a key target in the search for primitive alien lifeforms – and, it could help to explain the reactions that allowed first life to emerge on Earth.

These molecules are thought to be a ‘vital stepping-stone’ on the way to more complex molecules, and scientists say their presence at Titan suggests the process previously only known to exist in the interstellar medium may actually be universal.

In the hazy atmosphere of Saturn’s moon Titan, scientists have discovered molecules thought to be the building-blocks of the complex organic compounds that make life possible. The surprise new find means the massive moon is now a key target in the search for alien lifeforms

Titan’s atmosphere has a complex chemical makeup, and is thick with nitrogen and methane, ESA explains.

In the upper atmosphere, these compounds are subjected to energy from sunlight and particles from Saturn’s magnetosphere, spurring chemical reactions between nitrogen, hydrogen, and carbon.

While it’s thought that the large molecules eventually float down to the surface, how the simple molecules at higher altitudes become more complex lower down has largely remained a mystery.

But, in a new study on data from Cassini’s plasma spectrometer (CAPS), scientists discovered a type of negatively charged molecule previously thought unable to exist in Titan’s atmosphere.

These molecules, called anions, are highly reactive, and would quickly combine with the other materials in this environment.

Using the data collected as Cassini flew through the upper atmosphere, at about 950–1300 km (590-807 miles) above the surface, the researchers identified what are known as ‘carbon chain anions.’

And, these are thought to be the building blocks of more complex molecules.

According to ESA, carbon chain anions may even have been key ingredients in the processes that led to the earliest life forms on Earth.

‘We have made the first unambiguous identification of carbon chain anions in a planet-like atmosphere, which we believe are a vital stepping-stone in the production line of growing bigger, and more complex organic molecules, such as the moon’s large haze particles,’ says Ravi Desai of University College and lead author of the study.

TITAN: EARTH'S 'TOXIC TWIN'

Aside from Earth, Titan is the only place in the solar system known to have rivers, rainfall and seas - and possibly even waterfalls.

Of course, in the case of Titan these are liquid methane rather than water on Earth.

Regular Earth-water, H2O, would be frozen solid on Titan where the surface temperature is -180°C (-292°F).

Aside from Earth, Titan is the only place in the solar system known to have rivers, rainfall and seas - and possibly even waterfalls. These features are composed of liquid methane 

With its thick atmosphere and organic-rich chemistry, Titan resembles a frozen version of Earth several billion years ago, before life began pumping oxygen into our atmosphere.

Because Titan is smaller than Earth, its gravity does not hold onto its gaseous envelope as tightly, so the atmosphere extends 370 miles (595km) into space.

With Titan's low gravity and dense atmosphere, methane raindrops could grow twice as large as Earth's raindrops. 

‘This is a known process in the interstellar medium, but now we’ve seen it in a completely different environment, meaning it could represent a universal process for producing complex organic molecules.

‘The question is, could it also be happening within other nitrogen-methane atmospheres like at Pluto or Triton, or at exoplanets with similar properties.’

The researchers say the data suggest the carbon chains ‘seeded’ larger molecules at Titan, as they were found to dwindle closer to the moon, while precursors to larger aerosols underwent rapid growth.

Not only does the discovery suggest Titan may contain molecules that drive prebiotic chemistry, but it could also help to explain how life sprung up on Earth.

Breakthrough lofts the smallest satellites ever

by Matt Williams  , Universe Today

In 2015, Russian billionaire Yuri Milner established Breakthrough Initiatives, a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). In April of the following year, he and the organization be founded announced the creation of Breakthrough Starshot, a program to create a lightsail-driven "wafercraft" that would make the journey to the nearest star system – Alpha Centauri – within our lifetime.

This past June, the organization took a major step towards achieving this goal. After hitching a ride on some satellites being deployed to Low Earth Orbit (LEO), Breakthrough conducted a successful test flight of its first spacecraft. Known as "Sprites", these are not only the smallest spacecraft ever launched, but prototypes for the eventual wafercraft Starshot hopes to send to Alpha Centauri.

The concept for a wafercraft is simple. By leveraging recent developments in computing and miniaturization, spacecraft that are the size of a credit card could be created. These would be capable of carrying all the necessary sensors, microprocessors and microthrusters, but would be so small and light that it would take much less energy to accelerate them to relativistic speeds – in the case of Starshot, up to 20 percent the speed of light.

As Pete Worden – Breakthrough Starshot's executive director and the former director of NASA's Ames Research Center – said in an interview with Scientific American:

"This is a very early version of what we would send to interstellar distances. In addition, this is another clear demonstration that it is possible for countries to work together to do great things in space. These are European spacecraft with U.S. nanosatellite payloads launching on an Indian booster—you can't get much more international than that."

Professor Abraham Loeb also has some choice words to mark this historic occasion. In addition to being the Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science, the Chair of the Astronomy Department and the Director of the Institute for Theory and Computation at Harvard University, Prof. Loeb is also the chairman of the Breakthrough Starshot Advisory Committee. As he told Universe Today via email:

"The launch of the Sprite satellites marks the first demonstration that miniaturized electronics on small chips can be launched without damage, survive the harsh environment of space and communicate successfully with earth. The Starshot Initiative aims to launch similar chips attached to a lightweight sail that it being pushed by a laser beam to a fifth of the speed of light, so that its camera, communication and navigation devices (whose total weight is of order a gram) will reach the nearest planet outside the solar System within our generation."

The craft were deployed on June 23rd, piggybacking on two satellites belonging to the multinational technology corporation OHB System AG. Much like the StarChips that Starshot is proposing, the Sprites represent a major step in the evolution of miniature spacecraft that can do the job of larger robotic explorers. They measure just 3.5 by 3.5 cm (1.378 x 1.378 inches) and weight only four grams (0.14 ounces), but still manage to pack solar panels, computers, sensors and radios into their tiny frames.

The Sprite were originally conceived by Zac Manchester, a postdoctorate researcher and aerospace engineer at Cornell University. Back in 2011, he launched a Kickstarter campaign (called "KickSat") to raise funds to develop the concept, which was his way of bringing down the associated costs of spaceflight. The campaign was a huge success, with Manchester raising a total of $74,586 of his original goal of $30,000.

Now a member of Breakthrough Starshot (where he is in charge of Wafer design and optimization), Manchester oversaw the construction of the Sprites from the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Cornell. As Professor Loeb explained:

"The Sprites project is led by Zac Manchester, a Harvard postdoc who started working on this during his PhD at Cornell. Sprites are chip-size satellites powered by sunlight, intended to be released in space to demonstrate a new technology of lightweight (gram-scale) spacecrafts that can communicated with Earth."

The purpose of this mission was to test how well the Sprites' electronics systems and radio communications performed in orbit. Upon deployment, the Sprites remained attached to these satellites (known as "Max Valier" and "Venta") and began transmitting. Communications were then received from ground stations, which demonstrated that the Sprites' novel radio communication architecture performed exactly as it was designed to.

With this test complete, Starshot now has confirmation that a waferocraft is capable of operating in space and communicating with ground-based controllers. In the coming months and years, the many scientists and engineers that are behind this program will no doubt seek to test other essential systems (such as the craft's microthrusters and imagers) while also working on the various engineering concerns that an instellar mission would entail.

In the meantime, the Sprites are still transmitting and are in radio contact with ground stations located in California and New York (as well as radio enthusiasts around the world). For those looking to listen in on their communications, Prof. Loeb was kind enough to let us know what frequency they are transmitting on.

"The radio frequency at which the Sprites that were just launched operate is 437.24 MHz, corresponding to a wavelength of roughly 69 cm," he said. So if you've got a ham radio and feel like tuning in, this is where to set your dials.

Alien UFO sighting SOLVED: Mysterious lights seen from plane may have innocent explanation

A UFO enthusiast thought he spotted three flying saucers from a plane window.

By David Trayner 

YouTube user Carmelo Valone filmed three bright lights from a plane window as he flew from Alquerque, New Mexico to Oakland, California.

He suggested the glowing orbs could be an alien spacecraft – and asked the internet for explanations.

YOUTUBE/GETTY

“You can see the far right object discharging something very bright”

chillagalet98

Some were impressed by the footage – claiming one of the “UFOs” discharged “something very bright, almost cloudish ball”.

But users of web forum Reddit may have solved the mystery.

YOUTUBE

Viewers spotted the lights appeared to be stationary – or keeping pace with the plane so they didn’t move.

Some suggested they could be lights in the plane cabin, reflected in the window.

One said they might be irrigation sprinklers.

But several others said the lights looked like bright light reflecting off the mirrors of a solar power plant.

Reddit user IWILLCALLYOUOUT wrote: “They resemble solar mirror arrays.

“They are extremely bright and have an other-worldly appearance when viewed from the air.”

YouTube user Arman Peirce said: “I think I may know what that is.

“About five miles south of the Nevada/California border on the west side of Interstate 15, there is a huge solar project.

GOOGLE

“It's one of those project where thousands of mirrors are all designed to focus on the top of a particular tower that is in the middle of all these mirrors.

“I believe this type of solar project is the one where they have salt in the tower, and it heats to several hundred degrees celsius.

“There are three towers in a row, each about half mile from each other.

GOOGLE

Each tower is 200 to 300 feet tall, starting with one that is about a quarter to a half mile from the interstate.

“Each of the towers is super bright – they literally glow like a mini-sun during the day because of all the heat.

“Those objects look stationary. [It doesn’t look] like they are following [the plane] but looks like they are on the ground.

“It is probably this – although [I] could be wrong.”

GETTY

Arman Peirce appears to be referring to the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System – which does look like the video.

Carmelo Valone guessed he was flying over northern Arizona when he spotted the “lights” – but the Ivanpah Solar plant is fairly near northern Arizona.

The mystery appears to have been solved.

But not everyone is convinced.

Reddit user chillagalet98 said: “At 0.26 [in the video] you can see the far right object discharging something very bright – almost cloudish ball-like.

“So I don't think these are solar mirrors.”

Several bright lights were spotted over Siberia earlier this week, sparking fears of an alien invasion.

• Sand dunes and water deposits spotted on Mars spark fresh hope for alien life
• Astronomers stunned as massive GALACTIC EXPLOSION lights up night sky
• James Bond star reveals he has met 'ALIENS' in shock revelation

Big, Dangerous Comets Are More Common Than Previously Thought

Not Aliens: Weird Radio Signal from Star Likely Has Duller Explanation

Shuttle-Era Cargo Module to Become Deep Space Habitat Prototype

Donatello was one of three MPLMs that was designed to fly in the space shuttle payload bay to transfer cargo to the station. Built by the Italian Space Agency under a contract with NASA, two modules, Leonardo and Raffaello, flew on 12 shuttle missions between 2001 and 2011.

In February 2011, Leonardo became a permanent storage module for the station, in part by using insulation that was stripped from the never-flown Donatello.

Lockheed Martin will build its full-scale habitat prototype in the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, where the Donatello module has been located. The MPLM measures 21 feet long by 15 feet in diameter (6.4 by 4.6 meters).

Over an 18-month period, Lockheed Martin will build upon its deep space habitat concept it developed during the first phase of NASA's Next Space Technologies for Exploration Partnerships, or NextSTEP, program by using virtual and augmented reality prototyping in an effort to reduce costs and schedule, as well as identify and address issues while early in the design process. The results, to be shared with the space agency, will help to further understanding of the systems, standards and interfaces needed to make living in deep space possible.

"It is easy to take things for granted when you are living at home, but the recently selected astronauts will face unique challenges," stated Pratt, referring to NASA's 2017 class of astronauts, who may be assigned to deep space missions. "Something as simple as calling your family is completely different when you are outside of low Earth orbit."

"While building this habitat," Pratt continued, "we have to operate in a different mindset that is more akin to long trips to Mars."

The deep space habitat is intended to be part of the Deep Space Gateway, a planned crew-tended spaceport in lunar orbit under development by NASA. In addition to the living module, the gateway, as proposed, includes a power bus, docking capability, an airlock and a propulsion module.

To be launched within he first few missions of the Space Launch System (SLS) heavy-lift rocket, the gateway could also eventually serve as a staging point for a transport for astronaut missions outward into the solar system, or as a staging ground for missions to the lunar surface.

In addition to the deep space habitat prototype, Lockheed will also build a deep space avionics integration laboratory in Houston to demonstrate command and control between the Deep Space Gateway and the Orion spacecraft, also being developed by the company. According to Lockheed Martin, the lab will "help reduce risk associated with critical data interfaces" between gateway elements and "provide an environment for astronauts to train for various mission scenarios."

"We zijn allemaal immigranten": mens is samengesteld uit atomen van andere sterrenstelsels - HLN.be 

Bron: The Independent, The Guardian

Uit onderzoek blijkt dat tot de helft van de materie in onze Melkweg uit andere sterrenstelsels komt. Daarom stellen wetenschappers dat we onszelf moeten beschouwen als 'immigranten uit andere sterrenstelsels'.

 © rv.

De mens is samengesteld uit atomen die afkomstig zijn van andere sterrenstelsels dan het onze. Net als zowat de helft van heel onze Melkweg overigens. "We zijn dus allemaal ruimtereizigers of immigranten uit een ander sterrenstelsel", stelt de wetenschapper achter de nieuwe studie.

Die studie stelt dat de mens is samengesteld uit materie die vanuit andere sterrenstelsels miljarden kilometers aflegde. 

Galactische winden
Wetenschappers gebruikten computermodellen om uit te vissen hoe de materie die ons omringt in ons sterrenstelsel terechtkwam. Daaruit bleek dat supernova explosies (waarbij een ster op spectaculaire wijze explodeert) grote hoeveelheden materie verspreiden dankzij krachtige galactische winden. 

Dat betekent dat dezelfde materie waaruit de mens is samengesteld wellicht heel lang geleden en ver van ons sterrenstelsel is ontstaan. 

"Gezien de hoeveelheid materie waaruit we zijn samengesteld afkomstig is van andere sterrenstelsels, kunnen we onszelf beschouwen als ruimtereizigers of immigranten uit andere sterrenstelsels", stelt astrofysicus Daniel Anglés-Alcazar. 

Intergalactische transfer
"Het is heel waarschijnlijk dat heel wat van de materie uit de Melkweg afkomstig is uit andere sterrenstelsels, waar het door een krachtige wind werd weggeblazen en door de ruimte reisde om uiteindelijk een nieuwe thuis te vinden in de Melkweg".

Deze intergalactische transfer, het verplaatsen van materie van het ene sterrenstelsel naar het andere, is een pas ontdekt fenomeen en kan ons begrip van hoe sterrenstelsels worden gevormd fundamenteel wijzigen.

Miljoen lichtjaren

"Dit impliceert dat tot de helft van de atomen die ons omringen, zowel die in het zonnestelsel, op aarde als in ons allemaal, niet van ons eigen sterrenstelsel komt maar van andere sterrenstelsels die tot een miljoen lichtjaren verwijderd liggen", stelt co-auteur van de studie Faucher-Giguère.

Hoewel deze materie zich met honderden kilometers per seconde door het universum verspreidde, waren de afstanden zo groot dat het toch nog miljarden jaren duurde. 

De simulaties toonden aan dat de materie zich van kleinere sterrenstelsels naar grotere verplaatste. Dat gas vormde vervolgens sterren en zorgde voor bijna de helft van de materie in sterrenstelsels zoals het onze.

“Getting into character” as a method actor has an extra level of challenge when the plot of your movie includes encounters with extraterrestrials. Do you spend time begging to get into Area 51 or some secret Air Force base with the promise of helping those who let you in meet Sigourney Weaver? Or do the film’s producers only hire actors who have had close encounters – thus giving all of the good parts to Dan Aykroyd? Fortunately for the makers of the original Alien movie, they got both in Yaphet Kotto.

“I’ve never talked to anyone about it man, this is the first time. I’ve only told my wife, my rabbi, and a psychologist. This is the first time I’m talking about it.”

Yaphet as Parker (Syfywire)

According to a new interview with Vice, the 77-year-old Kotto was well-prepared to play Parker, the chief engineer who eventually (spoiler alert – you REALLY haven’t seen the original Alien?) gets killed by the alien. He claims he’s been seeing 6-foot tall beings with “elongated heads” since he was nine and the visits, along with other strange experiences, occurred on a regular basis into adulthood.

“Every time I moved into a house, above it at some point, there would be a circle of what looked like smoke. I’d wonder where it came from because it sure as hell didn’t look like clouds. Those sightings continued for a good ten to 15 years. I’ve also had time loss. I have a big loss of time between some of these moments, and I’d often wonder if I was taken”

Kotto’s encounters weren’t limited to the U.S. – his most moving experience took place in the Philippines. It occurred after being told by his wife and others that they had seen a “a UFO as big as the Yankee Stadium turned upside down” followed by a circle of smoke.

“They were freaking out. Two or three nights later, I saw it. The thing blotted out the entire sky. The moon and everything, it was huge.”

Since Kotto says he’s never told anyone in the media before about his alien and UFO experiences, it didn’t play a part in helping get cast as Parker in Alien. However, it affected him during the shooting.

“Now, I’ll admit, there were things that I alone found on the set of Alien—the spaceship. That mechanism that Sigourney Weaver throws to put the Sulaco (fictional spacecraft) on automatic destruct. There were symbols there. Symbols that had nothing to do with the ship in the film and I kept finding these symbols. They were like Egyptian symbols and I started trying to decipher them, which I was able to do.”

Sigourney and Yaphet  ( The Viewer’s Commentary)

Speaking of Sigourney Weaver, while it doesn’t come up in Kotto’s interview, the star of the movie said in an interview in 2011 that she believes in aliens too.

“I think there are extraterrestrial life forms in the cosmos. I think it’s more likely than not. The cosmos is a pretty big place.”

She also believes in conspiracies.

“I think there’s a department in our (the US) government which is exclusively dedicated to quashing reports about aliens. And that’s so unfair. It would be nice if we weren’t just able to read about it in the tabloids.”

Kotto feels the same way.

“The former Canadian defense minister Paul Hellyer came out and said America is playing around. He’s got some video tapes out there talking about a number of species that come here. He puts America down for not admitting the fact that aliens are a reality. That gave me a lot of comfort.”

Perhaps it’s time for Yaphet and Sigourney to get together again, this time to discuss real aliens.

Can a day go by without an update on the three-fingered allegedly alien mummies of Peru? As the cries of “Hoax!” increase, so apparently do the new releases of fee-for-view videos from Gaia.com and journalist Jamie Maussan, the go-to guy for all things 3-fingered. Yesterday, it was revealed that the mysterious cave where the mummies – at least five at last count – were supposedly found must be kept secret but the identity of the finder was revealed to be a guy named Mario, whose identity apparently must also be kept secret. However, new discoveries about the mummies are coming fast and furious to the patrons of Gaia.com. Fortunately, one of them is express.co.uk and they have revealed that a female 3-fingered mummy was going to be a mommy. That’s right, she was carrying eggs!

“In the pelvic cavity we see the presence of eggs. They are translucent meaning they consist of an organic substance.”

The eggs (credit: express.co.uk)

José de la Cruz Rios, who is identified as a ‘biologist’ and is known to have worked with Jamie Maussan before, came to this interesting conclusion that “translucent” means “organic” when looking at a CT scan of the alleged mummified remains of an alleged female 3-fingered aliens. Also, Dr. Edson Salazar Vivanco, who is identified as a ‘doctor’ and was involved in the analysis of an alleged 3-fingered alien hand last year, described how they found the ‘eggs’:

“The physical examination revealed that in the pelvic cavity there was a bump. This may have been its last meal, it may be something else, or it maybe gestation.”

A last meal? He obviously didn’t take the class that the biologist did where they explained that a bump with translucent oval objects means organic eggs. He must have also skipped the math class where they showed how you put two and two together and it adds up to “reptilians.” The Gaia.com videos have been alluding to the theory that these mummies may look like 3–fingered, big-headed, small humans with slit eyes but are actually more like reptiles or alien Reptilians and the eggs prove it because humans don’t lay eggs …right?

What next … babies?

Funny you should mention that. In the previous video where it was revealed that five mummies have been found so far, one of them was said to be a baby, which the ‘researchers’ named Wawita, which means … go ahead, guess. Give up? It means ‘baby’ in the local Cashua language. It’s nice to keep the locals involved, especially when many of them are upset that unidentified remains of ancient people – aliens or ancestors – are being shown for profit and possibly desecrated. Don‘t even get them started on the archeologists and mummy experts who are convinced this is all an elaborate hoax.

Is it? As the ‘researchers have been saying all along in previous videos:

“… now it is necessary to perform a DNA test …”

In the meantime, there were originally just six (that’s two 3-fingered hands worth) videos in the series but the attention this is getting may convince them to add another season or two … or some spinoffs. “Three-Fingered Men and a Baby” for the guys and “Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s a Dead Mummy” starring the egg woman.

Stranger things have happened, but not by much. Stay tuned for the next update.

MASSALE UFO-VLOOT BOVEN SERVIË

Nadat we onlangs zagen dat er een soort UFO-invasie plaatsvond in Zuid Amerika, schijnt nu hetzelfde te gebeuren in Europa. 

Op verschillende plaatsen in Servië hebben bewoners opnames gemaakt van een indrukwekkende vloot UFO’s. 

Zonder enige twijfel vindt er de laatste tijd een nogal spectaculaire toename plaats van UFO waarnemingen. 

En die is eigenlijk onder te verdelen in twee hoofd categorieën. 

De eerste is de meest voorkomende en dat is de witte ronde UFO of orb die nu echt overal ter wereld wordt waargenomen. 

Een mooi voorbeeld hiervan enkele dagen geleden in de Amerikaanse staat North Carolina, waar een man zich vol verbazing afvraagt wat hij nu in vredesnaam ziet. 

 

Een tweede mooi voorbeeld hiervan in ons eigen land waar op 25 juli het volgende object werd waargenomen boven Zuid Holland. 

 

Naast dit soort eenzame orbs zien we zo ook regelmatig in formaties langskomen. Onlangs publiceerden we een aantal voorbeelden hiervan in Zuid Amerika en nu komen ze voor in Europa. 

De volgende opname is gemaakt in de Servische stad Jagodina waar iemand met een mobiele telefoon een vloot van deze witte ronde UFO’s filmt boven de stad. 

 

Drie dagen later is het weer raak als boven het plaatsje Donji Milanovac wederom een aanzienlijke UFO-vloot wordt waargenomen. 

 

En wie denkt dat het nu afgelopen is in Zuid Amerika, die heeft het helemaal mis. Want de inwoners van de Chileense stad Santiago keken raar op toen ze op 17 juli ’s avonds naar de lucht keken. 



En dat UFO's soms gewoon te verklaren zijn blijkt uit het volgende bericht dat wij ontvingen van een lezer (dank!):

Jullie postten een video van de engelse dame Kat Kinny van zogezegde ufo's gefilmd vanuit de laatst geplaatste cropcircle in Warminster. Ik was die dag daar aanwezig en op dat moment onderweg van de cropcircle naar Alton Priors . We merkten ook de lichten op en reden er naar toe. Ter plaatse gekomen ontdekten we dat het om vuurwerk ging. Zeer indrukwekkend van op afstand maar helaas geen ufo's. Dit ter info en verduidelijking.

ROSWELL UFO SHOCK CLAIM: 'I drove crashed flying saucer away on back of truck'

SHOCK new details of a previously unknown "witness" to the alleged Roswell UFO crash have surfaced.

UFO arrives through Interdimensional portal in the skies over Alexandria, Louisiana

Incredible images captured by a couple apparently show a UFO coming out from a portal in the skies over Alexandra, Louisiana.

A couple coming back from their job spotted a strange ring-shaped cloud in the sky which then slowly changed into a very spherical ball.

They stated: "Me and a boyfriend stopped our car on the side and watched the huge spherical ball which remained stationary so we had time to take pictures, before it disappeared after a few minutes."

The strange object under the bright spherical ball looked pretty big and did not look like an airplane or a helicopter. It was 12:45 and the visibility was still good."

The images, taken on 2017/01/15, were submitted to Mufon for further investigation and registered under case nr. 85382.

The Night of Phelegethon! Strange Space Phenomenon observed in Australia and Hawaii

The Night of Phelegethon!

In Greek mythology, the river Phlegethon "fire-flaming" was one of the five rivers in the infernal regions of the underworld, along with the rivers Styx, Lethe, Cocytus, and Acheron.

 

Image left: Gigantic Jet Hawaii - Image right: Sprites Australia.

Plato describes it as "a stream of fire, which coils round the earth and flows into the depths of Tartarus". It was parallel to the river Styx. It is said that the goddess Styx was in love with Phlegethon, but she was consumed by his flames and sent to Hades. Eventually when Hades allowed her river to flow through, they reunited.

Dozens of rare bright Sprites (space lightning) triggered by the discharge of positive lightning between an underlying thundercloud and the ground have been filmed by amateur astronomer David Finlay who witnessed the space phenomenon from Kiama in Australia on the night of July 18, 2017.

David who was really surprised by the strange space phenomenon said: “It was a Sprite Phlegethon.”

The strange sky phenomenon not only appeared in Australia, a cloudcam located at the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii captured another amazing lightning-like phenomenon known as a Gigantic Jet.

Gigantic Jets are related to sprites, but more powerful and they are true space weather phenomena.

Frankie Lucena of Puerto Rico, who processed the video said: The thunderstorm was north of the observatory on the night of July 24, 2017. There were several Gigantic Jets captured by the cloudcam but not all of them were complete. The ripples in the sky high above. ( Gigantic Jet around the 0.05 mark in the second video.)

Chester Bennington saw a UFO before he Died (Real Story - Linkin Park Video Interview)

Chester Bennington saw a UFO at Arizona before he died. There are many conspiracies going on in this matter.

During an interview with a presenter from KIISFM.com, the 41-year-old Linkin Park frontman made the confession that he witnessed a UFO in the skies over Arizona.

When the presenter asked Chester Bennington if it was true, Chester said that it was a million percent true and although he couldn’t put a logical explanation together, he remembered what he saw knowing it wasn’t man-made.

It seems more and more celebrities begin to reveal their ‘UFO encounters’, what to think about the recent interview where Keshna an American singer and songwriter talks with the presenters of the Zach Sang show about her recently experienced UFO sighting.

We may wonder whether they speak spontaneously about their ‘UFO encounters’ or there's a reason behind their confessions.

It is known that celebrities are easy targets for mind control programs. There is a mind control program within MK Ultra known as ‘last days programming’ and it is said that celebrities are prominently involved in this MK Ultra mind control program.

It is believed Chester Bennington was facing some problems in his life after the UFO incident and God knows what was his reason to commit suicide.

FORMATIE UFO'S GEFILMD VANUIT NIEUW GEVORMDE GRAANCIRKEL ( VIDEO )

Naarmate de zomer voorbij glijdt en we langzaam maar zeker richting herfst gaan, blijven er bijzondere dingen gebeuren in de lucht. 

Overal om ons heen blijven mensen vreemde dingen zien in de lucht en een vrouw filmt een groep van vijf UFO’s vanuit een net gevormde graancirkel. 

De herfst die sowieso bijzonder zal worden omdat er op 23 september 2017 een unieke stand van sterrenbeelden is aan het firmament die zo uniek is en zo weinig voorkomt dat deze zelfs in de bijbel wordt genoemd in het boek Openbaringen. 

Mensen die én de bijbel hebben bestudeerd én de stand aan de hemel komen tot de conclusie dat op die bepaalde dag de maagd iets zal baren, terwijl er een soort monster klaarstaat of wat het dan ook is, om het te verslinden. 

Datgene dat geboren gaat worden, zou natuurlijk heel goed de onbekende planeet in ons zonnestelsel kunnen zijn waar de afgelopen jaren opeens weer heel veel over wordt geschreven. 

Deze planeet of beter gezegd planeten omdat we praten over een mini zonnestelsel worden steeds beter zichtbaar zoals te zien op de volgende foto die een paar dagen geleden is gemaakt in Engeland.

Misschien is er na 23 september een tweede planeet (zon) zichtbaar naast onze zon en is dat wat wordt bedoeld in de bijbel. 

Ondertussen blijven mensen vreemde luchten of dingen in de lucht zien. Hier een paar voorbeelden.

Over vreemd gesproken. De volgende opname werd op 15 juli 2017 gemaakt in de Amerikaanse staat North Carolina.

Niet alleen zijn daar duidelijk twee zonnen zichtbaar, maar deze zonsondergang is ook nog eens in het oosten. 

Tegelijkertijd gaat de gewone zon onder in het westen, zoals we de laatste tijd al veel vaker hebben gezien. 

 

En dan, alsof we bepaalde tekenen krijgen van buitenaardsen, gebeurt het volgende: 

Op 18 juli 2017 verschijnt er in Cley Hill bij de Engelse stad Warminster in het graafschap Wilthshire een monumentale graancirkel.

Linda Moulton Howe: Alien Binary Code Contains a Shocking Warning for Mankind

Linda Moulton Howe translated some of the binary code from an Army Sergeant who had received a downloaded message from alien intelligence of which included a cryptic warning about star systems in Orion and Zeta Reticuli. Binary code symbols and codes have also been recovered from crashed UFOs.

It has been independently confirmed both by Linda Moulton Howe and another researcher (Dr. Horace Drew) that C.J.’s symbols are in fact a message written in binary code that can be translated via a standard ASCII table.

C.J.’s message reads as follows:

Continuous protection of humanity 49.27n
11.5e. Expose Hidden Knowledge to ALL ` citizens
Advancement imperative for planetary survival
Beware of Orion 1350.3 and Z Ruticuli 39.170
Avoid (signal) messages sent

Beyond the X-Files: Aliens, Underground Bases for the ‘Elite’ and the New World Order

Phil Schneider, a very brave man, has lost his life due to what appeared to be a military-style execution in January 1996. He was found dead in his apartment with piano wire still wrapped around his neck. 

According to some sources, he had been brutally tortured repeated before being killed. Phil Schneider was an ex-government engineer who was involved in building underground bases.

He was one of three people to survive the 1979 fire fight between the large Greys and U.S. intelligence and military forces at Dulce underground base.

In May 1995, Phil Schneider did a lecture on what he had discovered. Seven months later he was tortured and killed by those for whom he had previously worked. This man’s final acts should not go unnoticed.

“It is because of the horrendous structure of the federal government that I feel directly imperiled *not* to tell anybody about this material. How long I will be able to do this is anybody’s guess.

“However, I would like to mention that this talk is going to be broken up into four main topics. Each of these topics will have some bearing on what you people are involved in, whether you are patriots or not.

“I want you to know that these United States are a beautiful place. I have gone to more than 70 countries, and I cannot remember any country that has the beauty, as well as the magnificence of its people, like these United States.

“To give you an overview of basically what I am, I started off and went through engineering school. Half of my school was in that field, and I built up a reputation for being a geological engineer, as well as a structural engineer with both military and aerospace applications.

I have helped build two main bases in the United States that have some significance as far as what is called the New World Order.

The first base is the one at Dulce, New Mexico. I was involved in 1979 in a firefight with alien humanoids, and I was one of the survivors.

I’m probably the only talking survivor you will ever hear. Two other survivors are under close guard. I am the only one left that knows the detailed files of the entire operation.

Sixty-six secret service agents, FBI, Black Berets and the like, died in that firefight. I was there.

“Number one, part of what I am going to tell you is going to be very shocking. Part of what I am going to tell you is probably going to be very unbelievable, though, instead of putting your glasses on, I’m going to ask you to put your “skeptical” on.

But please, feel free to do your own homework. I know the Freedom of Information Act isn’t much to go on, but it’s the best we’ve got.

The local law library is a good place to look for Congressional Records. So, if one continues to do their homework, then one can be standing vigilant in regard to their country.

Deep Underground Military Bases and the Black Budget

“I love the country I am living in more than I love my life, but I would not be standing before you now, risking my life, if I did not believe it was so. The first part of this talk is going to concern deep underground military bases and the black budget.

The Black Budget is a secretive budget that garners 25% of the gross national product of the United States. The Black Budget currently consumes $1.25 trillion per year.

At least this amount is used in black programs, like those concerned with deep underground military bases. Presently, there are 129 deep underground military bases in the United States.

“They have been building these 129 bases day and night, unceasingly, since the early 1940’s. Some of them were built even earlier than that.

These bases are basically large cities underground connected by high-speed magneto-leviton trains that have speeds up to Mach 2.

Several books have been written about this activity. Al Bielek has my only copy of one of them. Richard Souder, a Ph.D architect, has risked his life by talking about this.

He worked with a number of government agencies on deep underground military bases. In around where you live, in Idaho, there are 11 of them.

“The average depth of these bases is over a mile, and they again are basically whole cities underground. They all are between 2.66 and 4.25 cubic miles in size.

They have laser drilling machines that can drill a tunnel seven miles long in one day. The Black Projects sidestep the authority of Congress, which as we know is illegal.

Right now, the New World Order is depending on these bases. If I had known at the time I was working on them that the NWO was involved, I would not have done it. I was lied to rather extensively.

Development of Military Technology, Implied German Interest in Hyperspacial Technology, and More

“Basically, as far as technology is concerned, for every calendar year that transpires, military technology increases about 44.5 years.

This is why it is easy to understand that back in 1943 they were able to create, through the use of vacuum tube technology, a ship that could literally disappear from one place and appear in another place.

My father, Otto Oscar Schneider, fought on both sides of the war. He was originally a U-boat captain, and was captured and repatriated in the United States.

He was involved with different kinds of concerns, such as the A-bomb, the H-bomb and the Philadelphia Experiment. He invented a high-speed camera that took pictures of the first atomic tests at Bikini Island on July 12, 1946.

I have original photographs of that test, and the photos also show UFO’s fleeing the bomb site at a high rate of speed.

Bikini Island at the time was infested with them, especially under the water, and the natives had problems with their animals being mutilated. At that time, General MacArthur felt that the next war would be with aliens from other worlds.

“Anyway, my father laid the groundwork with theoreticians about the Philadelphia experiment, as well as other experiments. What does that have to do with me?

Nothing, other than the fact that he was my father. I don’t agree with what he did on the other side, but I think he had a lot of guts in coming here. He was hated in Germany.

There was a $1 million reward, payable in gold, to anyone who killed him. Obviously, they didn’t succeed. Anyway, back to our topic – deep underground bases.

The Fire Fight At Dulce Base

“Back in 1954, under the Eisenhower administration, the federal government decided to circumvent the Constitution of the United States and form a treaty with alien entities.

It was called the 1954 Greada Treaty, which basically made the agreement that the aliens involved could take a few cows and test their implanting techniques on a few human beings, but that they had to give details about the people involved.

Slowly, the aliens altered the bargain until they decided they wouldn’t abide by it at all. Back in 1979, this was the reality, and the fire-fight at Dulce occurred quite by accident.

I was involved in building an addition to the deep underground military base at Dulce, which is probably the deepest base. It goes down seven levels and over 2.5 miles deep.

At that particular time, we had drilled four distinct holes in the desert, and we were going to link them together and blow out large sections at a time. My job was to go down the holes and check the rock samples, and recommend the explosive to deal with the particular rock.

As I was headed down there, we found ourselves amidst a large cavern that was full of outer-space aliens, otherwise known as large Greys. I shot two of them. At that time, there were 30 people down there.

About 40 more came down after this started, and all of them got killed. We had surprised a whole underground base of existing aliens.

Later, we found out that they had been living on our planet for a long time, perhaps a million years. This could explain a lot of what is behind the theory of ancient astronauts.

“Anyway, I got shot in the chest with one of their weapons, which was a box on their body, that blew a hole in me and gave me a nasty dose of cobalt radiation. I have had cancer because of that.

“I didn’t get really interested in UFO technology until I started work at Area 51, north of Las Vegas. After about two years recuperating after the 1979 incident, I went back to work for Morrison and Knudson, EG&G and other companies.

At Area 51, they were testing all kinds of peculiar spacecraft. How many people here are familiar with Bob Lazar’s story? He was a physicist working at Area 51 trying to decipher the propulsion factor in some of these craft.

Schneider’s Worries About Government Factions, Railroad Cars and Shackle Contracts

“Now, I am very worried about the activity of the the federal government. They have lied to the public, stonewalled senators, and have refused to tell the truth in regard to alien matters. I can go on and on. I can tell you that I am rather disgruntled.

Recently, I knew someone who lived near where I live in Portland, Oregon. He worked at Gunderson Steel Fabrication, where they make railroad cars. Now, I knew this fellow for the better part of 30 years, and he was kind of a quiet type.

He came in to see me one day, excited, and he told me “they’re building prisoner cars.” He was nervous. Gunderson, he said, had a contract with the federal government to build 107,200 full length railroad cars, each with 143 pairs of shackles. There are 11 sub-contractors in this giant project.

Supposedly, Gunderson got over 2 billion dollars for the contract. Bethlehem Steel and other steel outfits are involved. He showed me one of the cars in the rail yards in North Portland. He was right.

If you multiply 107,200 times 143 times 11, you come up with about 15,000,000. This is probably the number of people who disagree with the federal government. No more can you vote any of these people out of office.

Our present structure of government is “technocracy”, not democracy, and it is a form of feudalism. It has nothing to do with the republic of the United States. These people are god-less, and have legislated out prayer in public schools.

You can get fined up to $100,000 and two years in prison for praying in school. I believe we can do better. I also believe that the federal government is running the gambit of enslaving the people of the United States.

I am not a very good speaker, but I’ll keep shooting my mouth off until somebody puts a bullet in me, because it’s worth it to talk to a group like this about these atrocities.

America’s Black Program Contractors

“There are other problems. I have some interesting 1993 figures. There are 29 prototype stealth aircraft presently. The budget from the U.S. Congress five-year plan for these is $245.6 million.

You couldn’t buy the spare parts for these black programs for that amount. So, we’ve been lied to. The black budget is roughly $1.3 trillion every two years.

A trillion is a thousand billion. A trillion dollars weighs 11 tons. The U.S. Congress never sees the books involved with this clandestine pot of gold.

Contractors of sleuth programs: 

• EG&G
• Westinghouse
• McDonnell Douglas
• Morrison- Knudson
• Wackenhut Security Systems
• Boeing Aerospace
• Lorimar Aerospace
• Aerospacial in France
• Mitsibishi Industries
• Rider Trucks
• Bechtel
• *I.G. Farben*

…plus a host of hundreds more. Is this what we are supposed to be living up to as freedom- loving people? I don’t believe so.

Star Wars and Apparent Alien Threat

“Still, 68% of the military budget is directly or indirectly affected by the black budget. Star Wars relies heavily upon stealth weaponry.

By the way, none of the stealth program would have been available if we had not taken apart crashed alien disks. None of it. Some of you might ask what the “space shuttle” is “shuttling”.

Large ingots of special metals that are milled in space and cannot be produced on the surface of the earth. They need the near vacuum of outer space to produce them. We are not even being told anything close to the truth.

I believe our government officials have sold us down the drain – lock, stock and barrel. Up until several weeks ago, I was employed by the U.S. government with a Ryolite-38 clearance factor – one of the highest in the world.

I believe the Star Wars program is there solely to act as a buffer to prevent alien attack – it has nothing to do with the “cold war”, which was only a toy to garner money from all the people – for what? The whole lie was planned and executed for the last 75 years.

Stealth Aircraft Technology Use by U.S. Agencies and the United Nations

“Here’s another piece of information for you folks. The Drug Enforcement Administration and the ATF rely on stealth tactical weaponry for as much as 40% of their operations budget.

This in 1993, and the figures have gone up considerably since. The United Nations used American stealth aircraft for over 28% of its collective worldwide operations from 1990 to 1992, according to the Center for Strategic Studies and UN Report 3092.

The Guardians of Stealth and Delta Force Origins of the Bosnia Conflict

“The Guardians of Stealth: There are at least three distinct classifications of police that guard our most well-kept secrets.

Number one, the Military Joint Tactical Force (MJTF), sometimes called the Delta Force or Black Berets, is a multi-national tactical force primarily used to guard the various stealth aircraft worldwide. By the way, there were 172 stealth aircraft built.

Ten crashed, so there were at last count about 162. Bill Clinton signed them away about six weeks ago to the United Nations.

There have been indications that the Delta Force was sent over to Bosnia during the last days of the Bush administration as a covert sniper force, and that they started taking pot shots at each side of the controversy, in order to actually start the Bosnia conflict that would be used by succeeding administrations for political purposes.

Thoughts on the Bombings in the United States

“I was hired not too long ago to do a report on the World Trade Center bombing. I was hired because I know about the 90 some- odd varieties of chemical explosives. I looked at the pictures taken right after the blast.

The concrete was puddled and melted. The steel and the rebar was literally extruded up to six feet longer than its original length. There is only one weapon that can do that – a small nuclear weapon.

That’s a construction-type nuclear device. Obviously, when they say that it was a nitrate explosive that did the damage, they’re lying 100%, folks.

The people they have in custody probably didn’t do the crime. As a matter of fact, I have reason to believe that the same group held in custody did do other crimes, such as killing a Jewish rabbi in New York.

However, I want to further mention that with the last explosion in Oklahoma City, they are saying that it was a nitrate or fertilizer bomb that did it.

“First, they came out and said it was a 1,000 pound fertilizer bomb. Then, it was 1,500. Then 2,000 pounds. Now its 20,000. You can’t put 20,000 pounds of fertilizer in a Rider Truck. Now, I’ve never mixed explosives, per se. I know the chemical structure and the application of construction explosives.

My reputation was based on it. I helped hollow out more than 13 deep underground military bases in the United States. I worked on the Malta project, in West Germany, in Spain and in Italy.

I can tell you from experience that a nitrate explosion would not have hardly shattered the windows of the federal building in Oklahoma City.

It would have killed a few people and knocked part of the facing off the building, but it would have never have done that kind of damage. I believe I have been lied to, and I am not taking it any longer, so I’m telling you that you’ve been lied to.

The Truth Behind the Republican Contract With America

“I don’t perceive at this time that we have too much more than six months of life left in this country, at the present rate. We are the laughing stock of the world, because we are being hoodwinked by so many evil people that are running this country.

I think we can do better. I think the people over 45 are seriously worried about their future. I’m going to run some scary scenarios by you.

The Contract With America.

It contains the same terminology that Adolph Hitler used to subvert Germany in 1931. I believe we can do better. The Contract With America is a last ditch effort by our federal government to tear away the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Some Statistics on the Black Helicopter Presence

“The black helicopters. There are over 64,000 black helicopters in the United States. For every hour that goes by, there is one being built. Is this the proper use of our money?

What does the federal government need 64,000 tactical helicopters for, if they are not trying to enslave us. I doubt if the entire military needs 64,000 worldwide.

I doubt if all the world needs that many. There are 157 F-117A stealth aircraft loaded with LIDAR and computer-enhanced imaging radar.

They can see you walking from room to room when they fly over your house. They see objects in the house from the air with a variation limit of 1 inch to 30,000 miles.

That’s how accurate that is. Now, I worked in the federal government for a long time, and I know exactly how they handle their business.

Government Earthquake Device, AIDS as a Bioweapon Based on Alien Excretions

“The federal government has now invented an earthquake device. I am a geologist, and I know what I am talking about. With the Kobe earthquake in Japan, there was no pulse-wave as in a normal earthquake. None.

In 1989, there was an earthquake in San Francisco. There was no pulse wave with that one either. It is a Tesla device that is being used for evil purposes. The black budget programs have subverted science as we know it.

Look at AIDs, invented by the National Ordinance Laboratory in Chicago, Illinois in 1972. It was a biological weapon to be used against the people of the United States.

The reason I know this is that I have seen the documentation by the Office of Strategic Services, which by the way is still in operation to this day, through the CDC in Atlanta.

They used the glandular excretions of animals, humans and alien humanoids to create the virus. These alien humanoids the government is hobnobbing with are the worst news.

There is absolutely no defense against their germs – none. They are a biological weapon of terrible consequence. Every alien on the planet needs to be isolated.

“Saddam Hussein killed 3.5 million Kurdish people with a similar biological weapon. Do we, the people of this planet, deserve this?

No, we don’t, but we are not doing anything about it. Every moment we waste, we are doing other people on the planet a disservice. Right now, I am dying of cancer that I contracted because of my work for the federal government.

I might live six months. I might not. I will tell you one thing. If I keep speaking out like I am, maybe God will give me the life to talk my head off.

I will break every law that it takes to talk my head off. Eleven of my best friends in the last 22 years have been murdered. Eight of the murders were called “suicides.”

Before I went to talk in Las Vegas, I drove a friend down to Joshua Tree, near 29 Palms.

I drove into the mountains in order to get to Needles, California, and I was followed by two government E-350 vans with G-14 plates, each with a couple of occupants, one of which had an Uzi.

I knew exactly who they were. I have spoken 19 times and have probably reached 45,000 people. Well, I got ahead of them and came to a stop in the middle of the road.

They both went on either side of me and down a ravine. Is this what its going to take?

I cut up my security card and sent it back to the government, and told them if I was threatened, and I have been, that I was going to upload 140,000 pages of documentation to the internet about government structure and the whole plan. I have already begun that task.

“Thank you very much.”

Bob Lazar: 25 Years After Spilling the Beans on Anti-Gravitational Flying Saucers Inside Area 51

It has been 25 years to the day since a live interview with a shadowy guy named “Dennis” changed everything for America’s most secret military base

“Dennis” turned out later to be a man named Bob Lazar, who claimed he worked at a secret facility built into a mountainside just south of Area 51’s main facilities.

Lazar claimed to have worked in 1988 and 1989 as a physicist at S4, which was allegedly located at Papoose Lake southwest of top secret Area 51 near Groom Dry Lake, Nevada.

According to Lazar, S4 serves as a hidden military location for the study and research of extraterrestrial spacecraft, or flying saucers using reverse engineering.

Lazar says he saw nine different extraterrestrial vehicles there and has provided detailed information on the mode of propulsion and other technical details of a disc-shaped vehicle he called the sport model.

Here is the latest Bob Lazar interview:
