The sighting of a bizarre ‘object’ near Area 51 sent UFO hunters into a frenzy this week.

Now we can shed new light on the history of the site where a strange shape resembling an ‘alien ship’ was spotted on Google Maps. 

Historical images of the site show that the mysterious structure has been under construction for several years.

Using Google Maps, we found that the site was little more than a patch of empty desert in 2005, although what looks like the outline of a building or small channels of water are visible.

Satellite imagery shows that two shapes were then built in the ground, one of which appears to be either filled with water or covered with tarpaulin.

By last year, one of the two dual structures had assumed its strange new ‘UFO’ shape. 

This is the earliest satellite image of the site we have been able to find

Some building activity appears to be taking place in 2007

The structure has taken shape by 2010, along with its twin

Sand can be seen in the centre of one of the structures, suggesting it is an indentation in the ground

In 2013, the satellite images appear to show two large holes in the ground with central islands

Here’s how the site looked in 2017, which was the most recent satellite image available

Only the most hardcore UFO hunters actually believed the ‘object’ was an alien craft, but there’s every chance it’s been used to test out secret new weapons.

It was first spotted by the YouTube channel SecureTeam10, which said it was found in Area 51 – a world famous base linked to countless numbers of alien conspiracies.

The strange structure is actually located near the Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, which is used to test weapons and is located about 500 miles from Area 51.

Recent images show that the area is dotted with tanks, boats and even aeroplanes. Boats were also seen right next to the object, further suggesting it’s a body of water rather than a building.

Could the strange structure have been built to test out scary new weapons? Sadly, we’ll probably never know because if the military is involved, then there’s bound to be something top secret going on.

It could also have a rather unglamorous explanation. It’s been suggested the ‘object is a fish farm or even a boring old cesspit.

The object was spotted about 500 miles from Area 51

One reader got in touch to offer this suggestion: ‘It looks to me to be a lagoon, possibly for water storage. It seems to have started as a larger rectangular shape then changed to two round ones with a pointed side extension.

‘The excavations can clearly be seen and the black area looks like a lining material. The boat shows up in later shots, they needed access for some reason. Could it be a fish farm?’

We also revealed the existence of a creepy ‘death circle’ near the naval base.

Can you explain the weird sighting? Do you know what the object is? Get in touch with jasper.hamill@metro.co.uk.

Solar storm could strike Earth Thursday: What you need to know

By Jennifer Earl | Fox News

A solar storm is forecast to hit Earth on Feb. 15, 2018.

A solar storm is forecast to hit Earth early Thursday after the Sun unleashed a powerful solar flare — a burst of high-energy radiation — Sunday night.

NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory Satellite captured a solar flare on the Sun releasing a coronal mass ejection (CME) around 8:25 p.m. ET Sunday.

“[CMEs] are huge explosions of magnetic field and plasma from the Sun’s corona,” the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) explained in a post online. “When CMEs impact the Earth’s magnetosphere, they are responsible for geomagnetic storms and enhanced aurora.”

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOA) issued a G1 (minor) geomagnetic storm watch for Thursday.

Here’s what you need to know about solar storms — and how they can impact the Earth — before one hits the planet on Thursday.

What is a solar flare?

Magnetic storms on the surface of the Sun can cause what is known as “solar flares.”

“A solar flare is an intense burst of radiation coming from the release of magnetic energy associated with sunspots,” according to NASA. “Flares are our solar system’s largest explosive events.”

Why are we under a G1 Watch the next two days? Because of this solar storm seen here in this GIF. The Sun unleashed a long duration C class flare that also produced a coronal mass ejection (CME) towards Earth. Send all of your Aurora reports to @TweetAurora #CitizenScience

If the storm is strong enough it will cause a CME, which is what happened in this case.

“The strongest flares are almost always correlated with coronal mass ejections,” NASA points out.

How do solar storms impact Earth?

There are a variety of things that could potentially happen. 

• The storm could increase the brightness and visibility of auroras, also known as the Southern or Northern Lights. ”Aurora may be visible at high latitudes, i.e., northern tier of the U.S. such as northern Michigan and Maine,” the NOAA said in an alert Wednesday.

• Regions may notice weak power grid fluctuations, though that’s unlikely to happen in this “minor” storm.

• Minor damage Earth-orbiting satellites,”especially those in high, geosynchronous orbits” could occur, NASA says.

• High frequency radio waves could be “degraded,” NASA adds.

• A NASA study warns solar storms could confuse the internal compasses of marine mammals, causing an increase in strandings on beaches.

“Geomagnetic storms are more disruptive now than in the past because of our greater dependence on technical systems that can be affected by electric currents and energetic particles high in the Earth’s magnetosphere,” NASA explains.

Should we be worried?

Not really. This particular storm is catergorized as minor, but that doesn't mean it can't impact the Earth.

Solar storms are actually pretty common. On average, solar activity increases every 11 years, NASA scientists say, and there's an uptick in solar flares during these cycles.

Fortunately, Earth’s atmosphere and magnetic field keep us well-protected.

“Some people worry that a gigantic ‘killer solar flare’ could hurl enough energy to destroy Earth, but this is not actually possible,” NASA explained in a 2013 article online. "Even at their worst, the sun's flares are not physically capable of destroying Earth."

For years, people have lived through solar storms without harm.

"In general, the physical danger is low and controllable," CNET reported, citing the NOAA, after a solar storm struck Earth in March 2012. "The biological hazard inherent in solar and geomagnetic storms comes from the exposure to radiation, which is mainly a concern for astronauts and people flying at high altitudes."

The "explosive heat" from solar flares can’t directly hit our planet, but the flares can, however, cause plenty of disruptions (like the ones listed above).

Flying Triangles in 1965 ( ENGLISH )

Finally, if as some researchers contend, the Flying Triangles are a relatively modern day creation of the military, how is that an entire squadron of them – right down to the triangular shape, the underside-illumination, and the low humming sound – could have been seen flying over England almost 50 years ago?.

*****

Triángulos Voladores en 1965 ( SPANISH )

Nick Redfern

Como muchos estudiantes de la ufología saben, en el último par de décadas ,  se ha  visto un aumento en los informes de un tipo particular de Ovni que llegó  a ser conocido como el Triángulo negro volador . El  FTS es de forma triangular y muy a menudo de color negro, de ahí el nombre, ¡ por supuesto! . Emiten un  grave / bajo ruido / zumbido y tienen un trío de luces en su parte inferior.  Por lo general, tienen esquinas redondeadas también, en lugar de bordes muy angulados. Y, de alguna manera, no son   diferentes de la Grumman B-2 Spirit Northrop en el diseño. Esto, como es natural, ha dado lugar a la posibilidad de que los FTS sean aviones de sigilo de última generación, más que verdaderos ovnis.  Es una suposición razonable.Pero hay un problema con ese escenario: los FTS en realidad no son nuevos o  de aparición reciente, en absoluto.

Revisando  toda una serie de archivos anteriormente clasificados sobre OVNIs en los Archivos Nacionales de Kew , Inglaterra, en 1996, me encontré con un informe de una página del 28 de marzo 1965 que, lo confieso, casi he pasado por alto. En una inspección más cercana, sin embargo, me di cuenta de que era potencialmente uno de los documentos más importantes relacionados de ovnis que jamás había encontrado.  De acuerdo con los documentos del Ministerio de Defensa, en la noche en cuestión , un testigo vio aproximadamente  a las 21:30 hs , cerca de Richmond, North Yorkshire, Inglaterra, lo siguiente: "Nueve o diez objetos - en estrecha formación triangular, cada uno de aproximadamente 100 pies de largo  - con iluminación naranja abajo - siendo todos ellos de forma triangular con esquinas redondeadas  y que hacía un leve  zumbido ".

Curiosamente, como se ha señalado en el primer párrafo de este artículo: las "esquinas redondeadas" y " el  zumbido" ... es precisamente lo que muchos testigos de  encuentros OVNI con éste  tipo Triángulo están informando hoy en día  , nada menos.

Reconociendo la importancia de esto, hice una fotocopia del documento y me dispuse a localizar al testigo, que lleva el nombre de los archivos... he de destacar que no resultó sencillo .  Me presenté y le expliqué que había localizado en el Archivo Nacional una copia del informe original que se ocupa de su avistamiento de hace tantos años.  Es justo decir que el hombre se sorprendió, por decir lo menos, al saber que los detalles de su encuentro,   se habían mantenido en los archivos del Ministerio de Defensa por más de treinta años.

"Sí, yo envié en un informe  hace tantos años... Pero no imaginé que lo hubieran mantenido todo este tiempo ", me dijo, con asombro en su voz. Según explicó, el ​​28 de marzo de 1965, aproximadamente a las 21:30hs,  había estado conduciendo a través de  North Yorkshire Moors.  Al acercarme a  Skeeby , cerca de Richmond, el motor de su coche comenzó a fallar. "Era un  Ford 1951 ", afirmó y ​​añadió con humor "... Era un buen coche, pero un poco impredecible a veces.  Salí del coche para echar un vistazo a el motor y ahí fue  cuando vi esta luz".  

Y continuó: "Al principio,como estaba   muy oscuro, me preguntaba si podría ser un globo meteorológico. Pero luego de un buen vistazo por encima del seto   me di cuenta de lo grande que era y de que volaba muy bajo. Era de unos cien metros de extremo a extremo, a unos cien metros por encima de los páramos y  con forma de un gran triángulo de color blanco lechoso .

"Siguió avanzando hacia mí y se detuvo a unos doscientos metros de mí a través de los páramos. Voló por un tiempo,no salió nada de él, pero había una luz debajo  que sólo palpitaba como una bombilla. Podría haber habido un buen número de luces encendidas, pero desde la distancia la luz sólo se veía como un resplandor. Entonces, sin una advertencia  despegó a una velocidad que no se reconoce. ¡Dios mío, pensé, debe ser un OVNI!...

"A medida que se disparó, pero no verticalmente en un ángulo, se unió a un grupo  que eran idénticos y que estaban en una formación de V o triangular. Los otros estaban muy, muy alto, toda una flota de ellos. Todos ellos se dirigieron hacia el sur, creo, a una velocidad tremenda y desaparecieron por el horizonte. Vi a la principal por no más de un par de minutos ", recuerda," luego , después  todavía estaba de pie junto al páramo y vi desaparecer esta flota. Esperé en caso de que algo más emocionante pasara, pero por supuesto que nada más sucedió ".

Curiosamente, poco después del encuentro, y después de haber informado de los hechos al Ministerio de Defensa en Whitehall, la testigo comenzó a notar "marcas rojas horribles en mi piel, que eran como una estría, pero eran como un salmón rojo profundo que yo no tenía antes ".

El ángulo más extraño de todo el episodio estaba por llegar, sin embargo, como el hombre ahora ilustra gráficamente: "Desde hace unos dieciocho meses después de la observación, recibí  llamadas telefónicas extrañas  cada dos o tres meses. Ellos sólo dijeron que eran de alguna oficina u otro. No mencionaron el nombre de la oficina y preguntaron si no había visto nada extraño. "

El testigo nunca recibió la visita de cualquier persona con respecto a su encuentro con el Triángulo volador , ni el Ministerio de Defensa  ofreció una explicación de qué fue lo que vio en esa fatídica noche de marzo de 1965. Estaba, sin embargo, nervioso por las llamadas telefónicas misteriosas , principalmente porque aparte de informar al Ministerio de Defensa de lo que había ocurrido, no hizo ningún otro informe (ya sea oficial o no oficial) con nadie y guardó los detalles para  sí mismo: "El único informe que he hecho fue el que se envió al Ministerio de Defensa. Fue tan emocionante que se lo tuve que decir a alguien ".

Este importante testimonio suscita una serie de cuestiones vitales. ¿Por qué alguien estaba  tan decidido a averiguar si el testigo había recibido visitas de extraños con respecto a su encuentro? ¿Por qué el interés en saber si había tenido otros encuentros inusuales de carácter OVNI?... Y lo más importante de todo: ¿quién  era la  misteriosa persona que llamaba?.

Por último, si como algunos investigadores sostienen, los Triángulos Voladores son una creación relativamente moderna de las fuerzas armadas, ¿Cómo es que un escuadrón entero de ellos, de forma triangular, con la parte inferior iluminada y el sonido de grave  zumbido,pudo haberse   visto volar sobre Inglaterra hace casi 50 años?...

Archaeologists From India Ask NASA For Help To Investigate Paintings Of UFOs And Aliens

Is NASA set out to help India archaeologists to investigate 10,000-year-old paintings of what appears to be UFOs and beings wearing space suits? According to the Daily Star, the answer is yes.

All around the world, prehistoric cultures tried conveying a message through ancient rock art.

No matter where we look, whether its Northern, central, and South America, to Europe, Asia, and Africa, people who lived on Earth thousands of years ago created art, depicting what they had witnessed during their lifetime.

Some of these ancient rock carvings depict ordinary scenes of daily life like hunting while other illustrations challenge our very understanding of human history.

Do these ancient cave paintings really depict UFOs?

If we travel to India, for example, we will find a number of curious cave paintings, where some of the images appear to depict ‘figures’ that carry some sort of weapons and are dressed in what many consider are ‘space suits’.

A group of Indian archaeologists has approached NASA and the Indian Space Research Agency to help them decipher some prehistoric paintings found in 2014 in the Charama caves in the central state of Chhattisgarh. Many of these 10,000-year-old petroglyphs represent figures similar to extraterrestrials and UFOs as seen in modern-day science fiction movies.

Archaeologist JR Bhagat was perplexed by the images, reports Daily Star.

E.T. Is that you?

“The findings suggest that prehistoric humans could have seen or imagined beings from other planets, something that continues to arouse the curiosity of people and researchers today,” said the archaeologists according to the Daily Star.

JR Bhagat explains that in the city of Charma, there aren’t experts in the field who could help solve the mystery behind the curious depictions, and what ancient mankind wanted to say.

The researcher explained that some parts of the drawings are difficult to interpret and that some of the characters are represented by objects that look like weapons.

Are these Ancient Astronauts?

“The paintings are done in natural colors that have hardly faded despite the years. The strangely carved figures are seen holding weapon-like objects and do not have clear features. Especially, the nose and mouth are missing. In few pictures, they are even shown wearing space suits. We can’t refute the possibility of imagination by prehistoric men but humans usually fancy such things,” said Bhagat.

The video was uploaded to YouTube channel The Lost History Channel in February of 2018 has already received more than 7,000 views.

One comment read: “Evidence is everywhere, we need opened eyes, that’s all.”

And another claimed: “We don’t need to find aliens, they are already here all around us.”

India isn’t the only place where such rock art is found.

If we take a look at other ancient sites around the globe, we will notice how thousands of years ago, ancient people around the globe created a number of petroglyphs and cave paintings. Why ancient man depicted strange beings with 5 or 6 fingers, helmets, sandals, and what appear to be space suits is a mystery no one has been able to answer.

In Australia for example, ancient mankind created hundreds of mysterious cave paintings which are known today as the Wandjina Cave Paintings. This set of curious rock art depicts could be well over 100,000 years old, and shows mysterious beings which massive eyes, large heads, and strange construction.

Some authors suggest that the Wandjina Cave Paintings are some of the earliest examples of alien contact.

‘British Roswell’ UFO Wreckage Records Covered in Alien ‘Hieroglyphics Found In Museum Archives

After more than half a decade, ‘British Roswell’ UFO Records covered in Alien ‘Hieroglyphics have been rediscovered at a Science Museum in England.

Groundbreaking pieces of evidence of Britain’s Infamous Silpho Moor UFO Crash have been rediscovered inside London’s Science Museum

Last year, the British government decided to declassify the secret files on UFO sightings following a new law on freedom of information.

Among the documents that were published was the “Rendlesham Forest UFO incident”, which dealt with one of the best-known sightings in the country.

In addition to this, official documents also revealed that the British Ministry of Defense established a secret UFO research group in the 1950s, in which the Directorate of Scientific Intelligence and the Joint Technical Intelligence Committee participated.

This ‘hot’ declassified information showed how the British Government had great in the UFO phenomenon.

However, the most important testimony today is that of Nick Pope, who worked for more than 20 years for the Ministry of Defense as the head of official research on unidentified flying objects.

His job was to evaluate UFO reports in the country.

What he learned was that at least some UFOs were undoubtedly technological objects of unknown origin, potentially of great importance for the defense of Britain.

Today, when the UFO phenomenon is one of the most-discussed subjects in the world, great progress is being made towards disclosure, or at least that’s what leading Ufologists say.

Apparently, Aliens crash-landed in Britain as well.

Thanks to countless classified documents being released by various governments around the world, dealing with UFO’s and alleged alien visitations, progress towards uncovering the truth is being made nearly on a daily basis.

Now, the missing ‘wreckage’ of “Britain’s Roswell” has been found stored in a cigarette tin and kept away hidden in a storage room in a London museum. The recently ‘rediscovered’ remains are believed to be part of a UFO that crashed in England nearly 60 years ago.

The objects in question were originally discovered in Silpho Moor, near Scarborough, England, in 1957.

The disk-shaped object that had allegedly crash-landed in England was approximately 45cm in diameter and weighed 15kg, and inscribed with mysterious hieroglyphics similar to those found in the remains of the Roswell incident in 1947, the best-known UFO incident in history. It is considered the British answer to the American Roswell crash.

Apparently, the unidentified object that had crashed in England contained a book made of 17 thin sheets of copper, each covered with various undecipherable hieroglyphics.

A Local café owner by the name of Phillip Longbottom claimed the hieroglyphs translated into a 2000-word message sent by an alien civilization, and contained a warning that read: “You will improve or disappear.”

The alleged fragments said to belong to the wreckage of the Silpho UFO found in 1957.

Interestingly, tests carried out at Manchester University revealed the object’s shell contained lead and the copper parts were of unusually high purity. Despite this fact, experts from the Museum of Natural History in London quickly decided that the “UFO Silpho” was a well-crafted hoax, since there was no evidence that the metal was from another part of the solar system, and that the UFO remains did not show signs of having passed through the Earth’s atmosphere at high temperatures.

However, Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, who led the RAF Fighter Command in the Battle of England during World War II, personally examined the mysterious object in 1959 and concluded that it was a flying saucer of extraterrestrial origin.

For decades, conspiracy theorists claimed that the UFO was intentionally destroyed to cover up the incident.

But now it is known that the items were sent to the Science Museum in 1963, where the evidence was “lost” in the archives of the museum.

Dr. David Clarke, a professor at the University of Sheffield Hallam, discovered the remains of the strange unidentified object after giving a lecture at the museum about the publication of the UFO files of the Ministry of Defense.

Speaking about the recent discovery, Dr. David Clarke who has a Ph.D. in British folklore and cultural tradition said:

“One of the museum staff tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I was aware that ‘bits of a flying saucer’ had been kept in a cigarette tin in the museum group store for decades.

“I was absolutely amazed when later we opened the tin box and saw the wreckage. It was obvious these were the remains of the missing Silpho Saucer that some have claimed as Britain’s answer to the famous Roswell incident.

“It’s incredible to hear that pieces of this mystery object have been sitting in a museum archive for more than half a century.”

As noted by the Yorkshire Post, the artifacts sent to the museum included a section of the metal-plastic outer casing, a short length of copper tubing, and several shards of foil from the “booklet” found inside.

Have We Discovered Another Earth? 95 New Planets Outside Our Solar System Found By NASA

It’s a huge discovery which places the current number of alien planets confirmed close to 3,600. The discovery is important for astronomers to map the solar systems of the Milky Way.

Astronomers exploring the cosmos have confirmed the existence of 95 new alien planets after combing through 275 possible candidates provided by NASA’s Kepler Telescope.

The space probe, which is currently on its K2 mission has found thousands of candidates since it was launched nearly ten years ago, when it launched from Cape Canaveral on March 7th, 2009. As noted by mission specialists. In total, Kepler has found around 5,000 unconfirmed ‘candidate’ exoplanets.

One of the most significant discoveries made by Kepler took place in 2004 when it spotted exoplanet Kepler-452b, dubbed ‘Earth 2.0’, an alien world eerily similar to our planet, located 1,400 light years away.

The new discovery is of great importance as it is a huge step towards finding a new Earth, capable of hosting life as we know it.

The study was done by an international group of scientists led by Dr. Andrew Mayo from the National Space Institute at the Technical University of Denmark.

Dr. Mayo said in a statement that the investigation began with the analysis of 275 exoplanet candidates. These candidates are luminous signals whose origin can be related to other stars or errors of the telescope and that, therefore, must be analyzed in depth before being confirmed as exoplanets.

“We found that some of the signals were caused by systems of several stars and/or by the noise of the telescope. But we also detect planets of all sizes: from worlds smaller than Earth to larger than Jupiter,” Mayo said in a statement.

“By increasing the number of planets discovered with K2 by almost 50 percent, this work will help astronomers dive much deeper into analyzing and learning about individual planets, particularly smaller exoplanets,” Dr. Mayo said in an interview with Gizmodo.

One of the recently spotted worlds orbits a very bright alien star.

‘We validated a planet on a 10-day orbit around a star called HD 212657, }which is now the brightest star found by either the Kepler or K2 missions to host a validated planet. Planets around bright stars are important because astronomers can learn a lot about them from ground-based observatories,’ said Dr. Mayo.

‘Exoplanets are a very exciting field of space science. As more planets are discovered, astronomers will develop a much better picture of the nature of exoplanets which in turn will allow us to place our own solar system into a galactic context’.

The strange interstellar visitor to our solar system – dubbed ‘Oumuamua by astronomers – is tumbling as it moves through space. A new study suggests its chaotic tumble is likely to continue at least another billion years, and it suggests ‘Oumuamua’s tumble is the result of a violent collision with another asteroid in the past. This collision might have knocked ‘Oumuamua out of its original solar system and sent it toward our solar system.

Astronomer Wes Fraser of Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, led this new research. Fraser and his team analyzed all the available data from optical photometry; that is, they looked at the data on how ‘Oumuamua’s brightness varied over time. Then they used computer modeling to understand why ‘Oumuamua varied in brightness, and to spin out reasonable possibilities for its past and future. Their study was published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Astronomy on February 9, 2018. Fraser said:

Our modeling of this body suggests the tumbling will last for many billions of years to hundreds of billions of years before internal stresses cause it to rotate normally again.

While we don’t know the cause of the tumbling, we predict that it was most likely sent tumbling by an impact with another planetesimal in its system, before it was ejected into interstellar space.

‘Oumuamua’s tumbling isn’t new. The object was reported last fall to have a 7 or 8-hour spin period; different measurements showed slightly different results. The most likely explanation was that ‘Oumuamua’s spin isn’t regular, as is the spin of most (but not all) asteroids in our solar system. Instead, ‘Oumuamua tumbles.

Its complex tumbling motion means we see different views of the asteroid’s body at different times, and so the tumbling of ‘Oumuamua can explain the curious color change observed by astronomers. The cigar-shaped asteroid’s surface might be variously colored. Fraser said:

Most of the surface reflects neutrally, but one of its long faces has a large red region. This argues for broad compositional variations, which is unusual for such a small body.

It also settles the question of whether ‘Oumuamua is solid. Answer: it is. As Matija Cuk explained in an article for the SETI Institute, asteroids are often just piles of rocks and sand loosely held together by gravity. When this is the case, she wrote:

… internal motions of material inside asteroids … damp this tumbling relatively quickly (astronomically speaking), leaving only asteroids that suffered recent collisions as tumblers. ‘Oumuamua spent many millions of years in the interstellar void, so it should have damped its tumbling, but it apparently did not. This made planetary scientists conclude that ‘Oumuamua is likely a solid chunk of rock or metal, without any internal structure or loose material.

View larger. | This animation shows the path of ‘Oumuamua as it passed through our inner solar system in September and October 2017. Image via NASA/JPL-Caltech.

And so – despite its quick trip through our solar system – we continue to learn more about ‘Oumuamua. In case you weren’t following it last fall, some astronomers thought the object was a comet when the Pan-STARRS 1 telescope in Hawai’i first picked it up on October 19 as a faint point of light moving across the sky. Others thought it looked like a typical fast-moving small asteroid. As astronomers tracked its motion through space, they began to be able to calculate its orbit, showing beyond any doubt that this body did not originate from inside our solar system, like all other asteroids or comets ever observed.

Instead, this object was doubtless from interstellar space. It was the first such object known.

The question of whether it was a comet or asteroid was put to rest after astronomers looked at ‘Oumuamua’s location in the sky prior to its discovery and found no signs of cometary activity after the object passed closest to the sun in September 2017.

That’s when it was reclassified as an interstellar asteroid – the first ever observed – and named 1I/2017 U1 (‘Oumuamua). A statement from the Institute for Astronomy (IfA) at the University of Hawaii described the intricacies of naming this object:

Originally denoted A/2017 U1 (with the A for asteroid), the body is now the first to receive an I (for interstellar) designation from the International Astronomical Union, which created the new category after the discovery. In addition, it has been officially given the name ‘Oumuamua. The name, which was chosen in consultation with Hawaiian language experts Ka’iu Kimura and Larry Kimura, reflects the way this object is like a scout or messenger sent from the distant past to reach out to us (‘ou means “reach out for,” and mua, with the second mua placing emphasis, means “first, in advance of”).

Astronomers had been expecting to find interstellar asteroids. Before ‘Oumuamua’s discovery, they had estimated that an interstellar asteroid similar to this one passes through the inner solar system about once per year. Such objects are faint and hard to spot, and so they haven’t been seen before this.

But recent survey telescopes, such as Pan-STARRS, are powerful enough to discover them. Thus – although it’s the first – ‘Oumuamua is likely not the last known interstellar asteroid.

Bottom line: A study of ‘Oumuamua’s chaotic tumbling motion suggests it’ll tumble at least another billion years. It also suggests a violent past for this object – a collision with another object – which likely sent it careening toward our solar system.

DNA Ancient Skull Concludes Its Alien, Peru, Feb 2018, UFO Sighting News.

DNA test results on the elongated skulls discovered in Peru have been released by a researcher investigating if the bones could belong to an alien race. The 3,000-year old Paracas skulls, with elongated craniums, have long been held up by UFO hunters as evidence of ancient alien visitations due to their extraordinarily huge foreheads.

The Zimbabwe Incident (Zimbabwe UFO Kids TODAY)

The Zimbabwe Incident occurred a generation ago. The many kids who met a matched pair of extraterrestrials, have since grown into adults. What are they saying today, about their close encounters as the Zimbabwe UFO school children?

A very remarkable UFO visitation took place in 1994, in front of more than sixty witnesses… between the ages of five and twelve. On a playground outside their school, the children all stopped playing at the same time, to watch a large flying saucer, hovering over distant scrubland. That sight, however, was only the beginning of their nightmares.

Strange UFO lights filmed over Colorado 13-Jan-2018

Check out this amazing footage of a bright lights hovering in the sky above Colorado. This happened on 13th January 2018.

Witness report: 

Glowing red/orange objects stayed in the same place for 30 min. Colors went from dark orange to light orange from side to side and changed sequence. It started out with two. Then three. Then around6-7, Then would go back to smaller, Then start over again

8:00 pm, Tuesday, February 13th. We were driving home from the grocery store, on a road through the mountains. We noticed a series of orbs moving horizontally across the sky in front of us. Each orb would light up, and then would start to fade. As one would start to darken, the light next to it would light up, before they would all disappear. The first sighting of the same phenomenon, the lights appeared to be stacked in two horizontal rows, but went to only one row afterward. We pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road, as this happened again, and continued to watch. At one point, the orbs lit up and branched out to the left and right, before turning back and going toward the middle again. We turned the vehicle around and drove back toward the store, turned back and watched again. The video was taken, during the last series of light orbs. After that, the sky went black and nothing else was witnessed.

Antarctica Reveals Ancient Secrets As Researchers Explore 120,000-year-old Hidden Underwater World

A mysterious ancient seabed that has remained in total isolation for more than 120,000 years is set to be explored by researchers.

A team of scientists is heading towards Antarctica in order to explore a region that has remained covered in ice for more than 120,000 years. This rare opportunity came after an iceberg known as A68—four times the size of London—broke from the Larsen Ice Shelf in 2017, exposing an alien world that has never before been explored by scientists.

This is a never-before-seen rare opportunity that will allow experts to study an alien ecosystem that is about 6,000 square kilometers in size.

When the massive block of ice moved, it revealed a region that had not seen the light of day for a long time, and now experts will delve into its mysteries and begin searching for any life that may have remained trapped there.

It’s a rare opportunity to explore a hidden, alien ecosystem.

Speaking about this rare opportunity, BAS marine biologist Katrin Linse said to the Independent: “We don’t know anything about it, it has been covered by an ice shelf that is several hundred meters thick.”

“It’s important we get there quickly before the undersea environment changes as sunlight enters the water and new species begin to colonize.”

During the exploration which is planned to last for three weeks, seabed animals, microbes, plankton, sediments and water samples will be collected, in addition to documenting the evidence of new marine mammals or birds that may have migrated to the exposed waters.

While their plane is spot on, researchers acknowledge that they really do not know what to expect when they get there.

“We need to be bold on this one,” says BAS science director David Vaughan.

“Larsen C is a long way south and there’s lots of sea ice in the area, but this is important science, so we will try our best to get the team where they need to be.”

This trip represents a unique and unprecedented opportunity for scientists to look into an isolated region on Earth that has never before been explored.

“We’re going into an area where we don’t know what we’re going to find, and this is an exciting thing,” Linse told BBC News Radio.

“I expect to find animals similar to animals we find in the extreme deep sea, so animals that are not used to feeding on green food, because there was no phytoplankton in the water above… We don’t know until we’ve seen it.”

All of the researchers taking part in the new survey are aware of the importance of their mission since observational windows like this one sometimes take more than 100,000 years to open.

“I cannot imagine a more dramatic shift in environmental conditions in any ecosystem on Earth,” said in an interview with Nature, marine ecologist Julian Gutt from the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Germany – one of the participating institutions on this voyage.

As noted by the Independent, besides studying any life that may be inhabiting the region,  climate scientists will try and establish whether or not the breaking apart of the Larsen Ice Shelf was induced by climate change.

Scientists Say Aliens Could Try And Hack Us By Sending Malicious Messages To Earth

A recently published study looks into the potential threats of receiving an alien message from the stars. Scientists say how the contents of a potential alien message could be malicious in nature, resulting in many problems for our civilization.

The research suggests how humanity could protect itself against spam or malicious viruses from a hypothetical extraterrestrial message.

As explained by Michael Hippke from the Sonneberg Observatory in Germany, and John G. Learned from the High Energy Physics Group, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Hawaii; “A complex message from space may require the use of computers to display, analyze and understand. Such a message cannot be decontaminated with certainty, and technical risks remain which can pose an existential threat. Complex messages would need to be destroyed in the risk-averse case.”

The recently published study has warned that if humans ever receive a message from an extraterrestrial civilization, apart from the fact that this would be the largest event in the history of mankind, we would be at great risk.

The study published on arXiv and titled ‘INTERSTELLAR COMMUNICATION. IX. MESSAGE DECONTAMINATION IS IMPOSSIBLE’ analyses the risk of potential alien messages.

Hippke and Learned note in their study how there are “several possible threats from an ETI message. On the most basic level, a message might represent a statement like “We will make your sun go supernova tomorrow”. True or not, it could cause widespread panic.”

“More realistically, a longer text could have a demoralizing cultural influence. For example, it is debated whether the Roman Empire was destroyed by the bible. We now follow along with the (perhaps more likely) case that the hypothetical message is not very short, and non-trivial in content.”

In their paper, multiple possibilities of a hypothetical contact with an extraterrestrial civilization are analyzed in detail.

The research considers how humanity could protect against spam or malicious viruses that could contain a message from the stars, for example.

Speaking in an interview with Universe Today, Professor Learned said:

 “There is no compelling reason at all to assume benevolence (for example that ETI is wise and kind due to their ancient civilization’s experience). I find much more compelling the analogy to what we know from our history… Is there any society anywhere which has had a good experience after meeting up with a technologically advanced invader? Of course, it would go either way, but I think often of the movie Alien… a credible notion it seems to me.”

Scientists suggest that any potential alien messages spotted by SETI are examined and “decontaminated” previously, to avoid potential damage, since, as researchers point out, to eradicate an entire civilization it would be much easier for aliens to send us a malicious message (virus) than an alien armada.

The study takes a look at the different dangers that an extraterrestrial message could contain. As noted by Universe Today, beyond the likelihood that a message could convey misinformation designed to cause a panic or self-destructive behavior, there is also the possibility that it could contain viruses or other embedded technical issues (i.e. the format could cause our computers to crash).

Hippke and Learned assure that neutralizing a possible computer threat that could arrive in the form of a message coming from an extraterrestrial civilization with more advanced technology would be very difficult, so they recommend being cautious and applying security measures to try to avoid greater risks.

AI Expert Claims Artificial Intelligence Will Become ‘Billions Of Times’ Smarter Than Humans

According to an expert in Artificial Intelligence, machines will become billions of times smarter than humans, and mankind needs to fuse with machines in order to survive.

Artificial intelligence could evolve to become “billions of times smarter” than humans according to Ian Pearson, a futurist at Futurizon who says people will need to merge with machines to survive.

The fact is that AI can go further than humans, it could be billions of times smarter than humans at this point,” said Pearson during a panel hosted by CNBC at the World Government Summit in Dubai.

“So we really do need to make sure that we have some means of keeping up.”

Will AI destroy the human race?

Pearson continued, “The way to protect against that is to link that AI to your brain so you have the same IQ… as the computer. I don’t actually think it’s safe, just like Elon Musk… to develop these superhuman computers until we have a direct link to the human brain… and then don’t get way ahead.”

Pearson’s comments echo the ex-engineer of Uber and Google, Anthony Levandowski, who formed the first church that worships an artificially intelligent being.

The futuristic religion, known as the “Way of the Future,” states that our species can improve itself by following the instructions of a robot that is “a billion times smarter than humans.”

WOTF will eventually have a gospel called ‘The Manual’, as well as rituals and even a physical place of worship.

Levandowski named himself “WOTF” dean, giving him total control until his death or resignation.

Interestingly, Pearson’s comments echo those made by Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk who spoke about Artificial Intelligence saying: “Over time I think we will probably see a closer merger of biological intelligence and digital intelligence.”

Musk continued, “It’s mostly about the bandwidth, the speed of the connection between your brain and the digital version of yourself, particularly output.” Musk has since founded a startup company called Neuralink which aims to explore linking human brains to computers.

Numerous experts have spoken out about the dangers of Artificial Intelligence, as well as its benefits.

Should we be worried about AI?

Professor Stephen Hawking, for example, says how we should be very careful when dealing and developing AI. The world-renowned scientist has said that Artificial Intelligence could become the worst event in the history of our civilization, urging experts to “employ best practice and effective management.”

In 2017, during a talk at the Web Summit technology conference, Hawking said that AI can in theory not only emulate human intelligence but greatly exceed it. Hawking also said that there is a danger that Artificial Intelligence could become so advanced that it may develop a will of its own.

Despite the fact that many people welcome AI into society, experts in the subject remain worried.

Elon Musk seems to agree with Hawking when it comes to AI. Mr. Musk warns we must tread carefully when it comes to AI, and called for companies developing AI systems to slow down in order to ensure they don’t unintentionally create something extremely dangerous for humans.

UFO hunters struggle to explain mystery ‘alien object’ spotted on Google Maps near Area 51

Jasper Hamill

This is the strange ‘UFO’ seen near a military base

Yesterday, we revealed the location of a strange object resembling an alien craft that was spotted on Google Maps.

But we’re still no closer to knowing explaining the mysterious sighting of a structure which looks like it could be an alien ship – or just a boring old cesspit.

The object was first noticed by the YouTube channel SecureTeam10, which claimed it was in Area 51 – a top-secret military research base which has long been at the centre of wild alien conspiracy theories.

We discovered the coordinates of the ‘anomaly’ – which is actually 500 miles away from Area 51 – and have now been contacted by several readers keen to offer their own explanation about the object

‘While I do not have a definitive explanation, I would like to point out that the exact same shape of the ‘ship’ is mirrored and imprinted into the ground across from it,’ one man wrote.

The object was spotted about 500 miles from Area 51 (Photo: Google Maps)

‘That, plus the boat, leads me to believe this is a man-made body of water which caused a visual glitch.’

Another shared a picture of an object he claimed was a Mayan relic, showing an object in the sky which looks remarkably like the Google Maps sighting.

However, we have been unable to verify the authenticity of this image so have not published it.

Another reader pointed out what appears to be tanks nearby, which you can see in the images below.

He wrote: ‘There are a lot of what appear to be tanks covering every road to the south leading up to it. Some even look like they have embankments built around them. Weird!’

Are the objects in this Google Maps screenshot taken nearby actually tanks?

A close-up of one of the ‘tanks’

The ‘UFO’ was actually spotted near Naval Weapons Center China Lake, which is about 500 miles away from Area 51.

Some observers have suggested it’s a water reservoir or even a cesspit.

There is a boat nearby, which indicates that it could be used for sailing or perhaps testing boats.

However, this rather prosaic explanation was not enough for some Twitterers.

There are boats and other vehicles located near the ‘anomaly’

‘That, my friends, is one of the ships that’ll be used in a fake alien invasion,’ one nervous chap tremored.

‘Will be used to scare the masses. Remember this pic.’

Others questioned why you would test boats in a desert – and also whether the site was a military testing zone.

One person said: ‘It’s for boats. There is a boat nearby. That is a large pool of water with a launch ramp. Why is the question? WHY?’

It was later suggested that the object could be the result of some sort of glitch in Google Maps.

After the publication of this article, a reader wrote in and said: ‘While I do not have a definitive explanation I would like to point out that the exact same shape of the ‘ship’ is mirrored and imprinted into the ground across from it. That, plus the boat, leads me to believe this is a man-made body of water which caused a visual glitch.’

Can you explain the weird sighting? Do you know what the object is? Get in touch with jasper.hamill@metro.co.uk.

Discovering the Saturn Moon Extraterrestrial Control System

Australian contactee George Kavassilas is interviewed about his lifelong experiences with different extraterrestrial civilizations and shadow government operatives. In this first installment of a two part Exonews TV interview conducted in Australia’s Gold Coast, George explains how his contacts began, how these evolved over the years involving several different groups, and the torture he received at the hands of shadow government authorities attempting to suppress his experiences and silence him. Finally, he describes a global control system comprising the planet Saturn, the Moon and extraterrestrials that has resulted in a Matrix-like illusory reality that manipulates humanity. He asserts that discovery of the Saturn Moon Extraterrestrial control system is the first step to human freedom.

Part 1 — Discovering the Saturn Moon Extraterrestrial Control System (S06E01)

In part two of this Exonews TV interview conducted in Australia’s Gold Coast, George Kavassilas explains the key components of a Saturn Moon Extraterrestrial control matrix used to limit human potential and growth. In particular, he identifies the roles of the chakra system and the pineal gland in creating false synthetic light experiences that entrap many individuals. He asserts the creation of synthetic light experiences is the favored manipulation technique used by unscrupulous extraterrestrials and higher dimensionals. He outlines his Heart -Centric/Core-Self method of how to overcome the global control system that creates a Matrix-like illusory reality that continues to manipulate most of humanity. He insists that overcoming the Saturn Moon Extraterrestrial control system is the necessary step we all have to take in attaining human freedom and achieving our highest potential as universal beings having a physical experience.

BEWARE! Aliens could destroy life from Earth without even visiting it!

According to the researchers, the aliens will not be sending any flying saucers to destroy the life. They will be simple sending messages through Artificial Intelligence to wipe out the human life.

New Delhi:

A joint study by two researchers at the University of Hawaii and Sonneberg Observatory in Germany has revealed that aliens are able to wipe out the life from Earth with just AI messages, and do not even need to visit us.

According to the researchers, the aliens will not be sending any flying saucers to destroy the life. They will be simple sending messages through Artificial Intelligence to wipe out the human life.

If humans get message or mail which cannot be decoded, from the aliens, they should delete the communication without reading it as the mail may result in the destruction of the planet. Responding or replying to the messages could prove costly as it might alert the extra-terrestrial beings, said the researchers.

The Academic paper, which is titled “Interstellar Communication. IX. Message decontamination is impossible’, discusses a possible alien invasion. The research was carried out by Michael Hippke of Sonneberg Observatory, and John G. Learned from the University of Hawaii.

According to the scientists, the messages will be impossible to decode, and thus, there is no reason to open any such mail or message. They also warn that these emails or messages might contain malware or virus which could be so strong that it can destroy the technologies which exist on the planet.

The researchers wrote in their academic paper, “A complex message from space may require the use of computers to display, analyze and understand. Such a message cannot be decontaminated with certainty, and technical risks remain which can pose an existential threat. Complex messages would need to be destroyed in the risk-averse case.”

With the paper going viral, several theorists claim that Artificial Intelligence can be a possible way in which the aliens can cause the end of our planet.

WOLKEN DIE GEEN WOLKEN ZIJN EN VREEMDE PAARSE LUCHTEN ( VIDEO )

Wanneer je in een ruimteschip van bijvoorbeeld een verre beschaving naar de aarde komt en je wilt dat min of meer anoniem doen, hoe verberg je je dan het best voor nieuwsgierige blikken? 

Je vermomt je als wolk en ook al ziet die wolk er dan soms een beetje vreemd uit, de meeste mensen merken dat toch niet op want ze kijken naar de grond of zien wat ze willen of verwachten te zien. 

Al jaren schrijven wij over (grote) ruimteschepen die zich vermommen als wolken zodat ze niet opvallen voor het doorsnee publiek. Het Engelse woord voor dit soort vermomming is cloaking/cloaken en dat is wat deze grote schepen heel regelmatig doen.

Soms gaat er even iets mis en worden ze tijdelijk zichtbaar, zoals we onlangs aantoonden in een artikel. Dit heeft alles met lichtval te maken en dus het tijdstip. Het schijnt dat rond zonsopkomst en -ondergang dat cloaken het moeilijkst is en dat zijn ook de momenten dat deze schepen nogal eens zichtbaar zijn.

Nu is er wederom een vreemde opname opgedoken die is gemaakt door een dame genaamd Wendy Wagner, boven New Mexico in Amerika.

De foto ziet er als volgt uit en hoewel men ook dit formeel een wolk noemt, lijkt welhaast overduidelijk dat we hier niet te maken hebben met een natuurlijk gevormde wolk, maar met een moederschip dat even tijdelijk de cloak niet goed hanteert. 

Wanneer je wat verder inzoomt, zie je heel duidelijk dat het hier om een constructie gaat in plaats van een door de natuur gevormd iets.

Het is een hele goede manier om dit soort schepen te verbergen, want in 99 procent van de gevallen worden ze niet opgemerkt, omdat men de vage omtrek van een wolk ziet en deze nooit in verband zal brengen met een ruimteschip.

Op onderstaande foto zie je een voorbeeld hoe soms wolken totaal niet thuis horen in het landschap. De volgende is genomen in Turkije en laat een kleinere UFO zien naast een wolk die overduidelijk niet thuis hoort in het landschap.

In de volgende video de bewegende beelden van diezelfde wolk met UFO: 

Een ander vreemd verschijnsel doet zich de laatste tijd voor op de Filipijnen waar mensen soms een paarse lucht zien. Waar het vandaan komt weet niemand, maar duidelijk is wel dat de lichtbron niet van de grond afkomstig is.

De lucht ziet er dan uit zoals te zien op de volgende afbeeldingen.

De volgende opname is gemaakt op 11 februari en wanneer je naar de bewegende beelden kijkt, zie je dat de lichten plotsklaps verdwijnen, alsof iemand een schakelaar heeft omgedraaid.


Dit is niet de eerste keer dat deze vreemde lichten te zien waren, want ook op 26 januari dit jaar was er iets vergelijkbaars te zien.

Origins of Earth's Weird 'Pulsating Auroras' Nailed Down

Was there a highly advanced civilization prior to all other known civilizations?

I believe this is the biggest conspiracy of all, and one in which, you must dive deep down the rabbit hole to truly understand all other conspiracies, especially modern era ones.

I think in order for you to be able to see the full picture and fully grasp the complexity of TPTB, you need to go all the way back and research history (real history - not the propaganda they teach in schools), mythology, lost civilizations, symbolism, occult, mystery schools, etc etc, and then move forward. Once you have done this, the bigger picture will come into focus, imo.

i hate that word "mythology" ...mainstream loves it...they use it to reference shit they dont understand and shit that isnt in the governments version of history...

ancient peoples did not waste their time carving fairy tales in stone...they carved their versions of history...more people need to wrap their head around that fact and dig a little deeper then the bible..

Being able to travel in time is something that has often been discussed, and it has been the focus of many movies. So far it has been seen as nothing more than a theory but would anyone believe a person if they said that they had traveled to a different time and come back?

Time Travel proof: 'British intelligence worker' reveals truth behind Mandela effect

Time travel is something that has fascinated many people for decades, and now a man from England by the name of William Taylor has come forward to say that he has been to the future on many different occasions and come back to tell the tale.

"Time travel was first successfully accomplished in 1981," Taylor claims. "There is an infinite number of alternate universes, it's possible every one of these universes exist and it's possible to move between these universes. We developed a machine to not only time travel, but move between these parallel universes."

Here is what Taylor - the time traveler - has to say to the world:

Taylor has realized that not everyone believes his story about being able to travel into the future and this does not seem to bother him. What bothers him more is fear of reprisal for telling his story. This is because he claims to have worked for the government in Britain along with the British Intelligence agency.

Taylor said that there are many advanced technologies being kept secret. He went on to say that in time they will be released to the public but for the time being, they are highly classified. He claimed that “they” would be coming after him for releasing the video and telling the truth and that he was putting himself at risk for speaking up. According to Taylor time travel was first accomplished in 1981, and there is an infinite number of alternate universes out there. He went on to say that it is possible that the universes exist and they can be moved between. Taylor claims that a machine was developed for time traveling and to allow people to move between the parallel universes.

In The Year 3000 Humans Live Underwater

Taylor spoke out above visiting the year 3000 and said that not a great deal had changed, other than humans lived under the water and he talked in detail about the things that he had seen during his time in the future. Taylor described looking up and seeing flying transportation in the sky above but only being able to see lights through what he claimed was thick smog. He went on to talk about going to 8973 and said that this was when the British government thought that machines and men would fuse together as one.

The video goes on and the longer that Taylor speaks about his time in the future and time travel the stranger it seems to get. He starts by talking about going into the future and time traveling and then goes on to talk about parallel universes and to travel to them. He then goes on to talk about invisibility and more. Whether you believe what Taylor has to say or you are skeptical about it, the video is rather entertaining to watch, and it may have some people wondering.

There are vast quantities of mercury in the permafrost. With global warming, it’s now seeping away

 BY MIHAI ANDREI

Researchers found surprisingly large quantities of mercury in the permafrost of the northern hemisphere. As temperatures rise and ice continues to melt, the mercury can be released, with significant consequences for both wildlife and mankind.

Maps of mercury concentrations (micrograms of mercury per square meter) in Northern hemisphere permafrost zones for four soil layers: 0-30 centimeters, 0-100 centimeters, 0-300 centimeters, and permafrost. The permafrost map represents the mercury bound to frozen organic matter below the Active Layer Depth (ALD) and above 300 cm depth.

The tentacles of climate change are long and far-reaching. As temperatures rise, it brings along a number of unforeseen changes. Rising temperatures are threatening the oceans, causing more hurricanes, and even causing a coffee crisis. Now, we can add mercury to that long list of problems.

A new study reports that permafrost soils contain more mercury than the rest of the planet’s soils, atmosphere, and oceans combined.

In the new study, geologists assessed the concentrations in permafrost cores from Alaska. They found that permafrost soils contain two times more mercury than soils elsewhere in the world — an unexpected discovery with important consequences.

“This discovery is a game-changer,” said Paul Schuster, a hydrologist at the U.S. Geological Survey in Boulder, Colorado and lead author of the new study. “We’ve quantified a pool of mercury that had not been done previously, and the results have profound implications for better understanding the global mercury cycle.”

This wouldn’t normally be a very high concern, but the problem is that temperatures are now rising.

Permafrost in Alaska is thawing, and a new study finds northern permafrost soils are the largest reservoir of mercury on the planet, storing nearly twice as much mercury as all other soils, the ocean, and the atmosphere combined.

Mercury tends to bind with organic material in the soil and gets stuck with that soil. As it gets buried by sediment, it becomes frozen into permafrost, where it can remain for thousands of years. But if temperatures rise, all that can change. When temperatures rise and the permafrost melts, mercury isn’t fixed in place anymore. Instead of being frozen in the permafrost, it can also be transported by waters or microorganisms, or it can slowly seep on its own.

“There would be no environmental problem if everything remained frozen, but we know the Earth is getting warmer,” Schuster said. “Although measurement of the rate of permafrost thaw was not part of this study, the thawing permafrost provides a potential for mercury to be released—that’s just physics.”

Locally, the effects could be dramatic. From microorganisms, things can slowly move up the food chain, and like most toxins, they tend to gather higher up the food chain — and potentially end up on our plates.

The release of mercury could also have far-reaching global consequences. If released into the atmosphere, it could travel quickly at the mercy of air currents, possibly ending up as far as thousands of kilometers away.

But we don’t really know how much and how far the mercury can travel. Scientists are also unsure how much of the stored mercury would affect ecosystems if the permafrost were to thaw.

Schuster hopes to analyze that those issues in further studies, understanding how the mercury can affect humans and natural environments.

“24 percent of all the soil above the equator is permafrost, and it has this huge pool of locked-up mercury,” he said. “What happens if the permafrost thaws? How far will the mercury travel up the food chain? These are big-picture questions that we need to answer.”

Huge Antarctic iceberg exposes mysterious marine ecosystem hidden beneath the ice for 120,000 years

 BY TIBI PUIU

Last year, one of the largest icebergs in history broke off broke off from the Larsen C ice. The massive 2,200-square-mile iceberg called A-68 has exposed an ecosystem that has been hidden beneath the ice for thousands of years. Now, a diverse team made up of scientists from nine research institutes around the world is urgently traveling to the area where the iceberg calved to probe the seabed before it’s too late.

A daring expedition and lifeforms removed from time

The researchers are supposed to leave from the Falkland Islands to the calving site on 21 February, where they will spend three weeks until March 2018 on board the research ship RRS James Clark Ross.

The A-68 iceberg is one of the largest ever observed on Earth. It’s about as big as the state of Delaware and holds four times more ice than what gets melted from Greenland’s ice sheet in a year. Scientists had been preparing for A-68’s split from Larsen C for months before the calving, ever since they witnessed a crack in the ice shelf extending over 100 miles in length.

Ice shelves encircle the Antarctic continent, extending thick floating ice from the land glaciers. Due to warming temperatures, Antarctica’s ice shelves are starting to thin or collapse. An iceberg such as A-68 won’t raise sea levels because the detached ice was already afloat in the ocean. That’s very good news since A-68 holds enough mass to raise global sea levels by 3 millimeters had the ice been added anew to the ocean. However, events such as these can destabilize the ice shelf.

If an Antarctic ice shelf such as Larsen C collapses, it can free the ice it’s currently holding back on the Antarctic Peninsula. It’s this terrestrial ice flowing out that can raise sea levels, and by no negligible amount. On the upside, icebergs such as A-68 can make room for human explorers who can now witness what ecosystems which have been isolated for thousands of years look like. Perhaps, they will find totally new, strange life forms that have adapted to total darkness, completely isolated from other ecosystems.

The team of daring researchers led by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) will collect seafloor animals, microbes, plankton, and water samples from the now-exposed seafloor. They will record video footage and document whatever marine mammals and birds might have moved in the area.

The expedition is somewhat fortunate — it’s the first to benefit from an international agreement signed in 2016 by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). Under this agreement, exposed marine areas following the collapse or retreat of ice shelves in Antarctica, such as the one targeted by BAS, are designated Special Areas for Scientific Study.

“The calving of A-68 offers a new and unprecedented opportunity to establish an interdisciplinary scientific research programme in this climate-sensitive region. Now is the time to address fundamental questions about the sustainability of polar continental shelves under climate change,” said Professor David Vaughan, Science Director at BAS.

Vaughan and colleagues are in a hurry to get to the calving site and get to work as quickly as possible. They’re concerned that sunlight will alter the ecosystem too much, at least at the surface layer.

Large icebergs have broken off Antarctic ice shelves before, such as those that separated from the Larsen A and B ice shelves in 1995 and 2002, respectively. However, it took five to 12 years for expeditions to make it to those areas. When they got there, they reported sparse signs of life.

This time around, researchers hope to be there quick enough to possibly surprise some of the supposed alien-like life lurking in the depths.

“We need to be bold on this one. Larsen C is a long way south and there’s lots of sea ice in the area, but this is important science, so we will try our best to get the team where they need to be,” Vaughan said.

Five years ago today, a small asteroid with an estimated size of 65 feet (20 meters) entered Earth’s atmosphere. The February 15, 2013, asteroid was moving at 12 miles per second (~19 km/sec) when it struck the protective blanket of air around our planet, which did its job and caused the asteroid to explode. The bright, hot explosion took place only about 20 miles (30 km) above the city of Chelyabinsk in Russia and carried 20 to 30 times the energy of the Hiroshima atomic bomb. Its shock wave broke windows and knocked down parts of buildings in six Russian cities and caused some 1,500 people to seek medical attention for injuries, mostly from flying glass.

Large and small bodies from space strike Earth’s atmosphere continuously. The Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization, which operates a network of sensors that monitors Earth around the clock listening for the infrasound signature of nuclear detonations, said in 2014 that it had recorded 26 atom-bomb-scale asteroid impacts to Earth’s atmosphere since 2000.

Still, the February 15, 2013 Russian superbolide was extremely powerful. It was later said to be the most powerful explosion caused by an asteroid since the Tunguska event, which flattened a wide area of forest and killed reindeer in Siberia in 1908.

The Tunguska event happened in a sparsely populated part of Siberia. It remained mysterious to scientists throughout the early part of the 20th century. By contrast, across a wide swath of Russia on February 15, 2013, dashboard cameras and amateur photographers captured images of the incoming meteor.

After the 2013 meteor exploded, it’s said that local residents and schoolchildren found meteorite fragments left in its aftermath, many located in snowdrifts. An informal market emerged for meteorite fragments.

A large number of small meteorites fell on areas west of Chelyabinsk, and, within hours of the visual sighting of the meteor, a 20-foot (6-meter) hole was discovered on the frozen surface of Lake Chebarkul in the Russian Ural Mountains. Scientists from the Ural Federal University collected 53 samples from around the hole that same day.

In June 2013, Russian scientists reported further investigation by magnetic imaging below the location of the ice hole in Lake Chebarkul. They had identified a larger meteorite buried in sediments on the lake floor.

Following an operation lasting a number of weeks, on October 15, 2013, a large fragment of the meteorite was lifted from the bottom of Lake Chebarkul. It had a total mass of 1,442 pounds (654 kg) and to date remains the largest found fragment of the Chelyabinsk meteorite.

NASA satellites were also able to track the meteor plume in Earth’s atmosphere. As the video below describes, they tracked and studied the meteor plume for months.

Bottom line: On February 15, 2013, a small asteroid created a bright meteor over Russia, which exploded over the city of Chelyabinsk.

Unexplained Mystery Booms Continue Across America

Seriously though: what is causing all of these unexplained booms all across North America? From coast to coast, the sounds of thunderous explosions in the sky have rattled windows and shaken homes without any definitive official explanation. Is something strange going on overhead? Then again, when is something strange ever not going on overhead? 

Case in point.

The first of this week’s unexplained booms happened on February 6th in Midwest City just outside of Oklahoma City. Residents described what sounded like dynamite going off as their homes shook violently. One Midwest City woman, Donna Hood, described the ensuing vibration to local news as earthquake-like:

We thought we’d had an earthquake and we waited and looked on the news and everywhere else and nobody posted anything. So, we had no idea what it was.

Local meteorologists, meanwhile, say there’s nothing to worry about, just a case of the ol’ cryoseism, or frost quake. These rare seismic events occur when groundwater tables freeze rapidly and expand against one another underground, cracking under immense pressure. 

Cryoseisms can sometimes be powerful enough to crack the earth.

Two days later, police in Wheat Ridge, Colorado received numerous calls after homeowners heard a loud boom in the night. Residents of the Denver suburb told police they in fact regularly feel and hear what sounds like an unexplained explosion at 3:00 a.m., mostly on weekends. According to CBS4 Denver, Wheat Ridge residents are left frightened and mystified by the lack of answers. Some believe the noise could be caused by something industrial like a malfunctioning electrical transformer, while others worry the noise is “something not so easily explained.”

Local news eats this stuff up. As do I, of course.

Wheat Ridge Police department spokesperson Sara Spaulding says police are likewise baffled:

We’ve had descriptions that are everything from a transformer blew, to a sonic boom that you might hear with an airplane passing overhead or a jet passing overhead, fireworks sometimes, those loud booms without the crackly noises associated. The challenge for us is that there isn’t any evidence of what this could be.

Are the Wheat Ridge or Oklahoma City booms related to the other booms heard and felt around the country? What is behind this phenomenon? I’m going with secret military activity. The world sure seems to be getting weird and dangerous again.

Nothing attracts conspiracy theories like a SpaceX launch. From UFO sightings at failed launches to rumors of corporate espionage, all kinds of speculation have been cast at the enigmatic Elon Musk and his sometimes secretive private space program. After Musk and co. recently launched the first Falcon Heavy rocket into space carrying Musk’s red Tesla roadster and its supposed empty spacesuit driver, the internet realized that, well, you know there could be a body in that suit and we’d never know. But come on, would Elon do something like that? I mean, if anyone had the cojones to put a dead body in orbit on live TV, it’s that dude. The Falcon Heavy launch didn’t just contain the empty spacesuit, though. Riding along beside the convertible was a disc of quartz crystal containing a hologram upon which was etched a massive library of data encoded using some of the most advanced storage methods possible, all designed to last billions of years. Strangest of all, no one really knows what exactly is written on them.

I bet whoever is in this spacesuit knows.

The disc is part of what is being called the Arch, created by the The Arch Mission Foundation, a non-profit group which statestheir goal is to “permanently archive human knowledge for thousands to billions of years. We exist to preserve and disseminate humanity’s knowledge across time and space, for the benefit of future generations.” To do this, the foundation helped develop a “5D optical storage” method using discs of quartz crystals inscribed with laser nanostructuring to create afreaking hologram inside the structure of the crystal disc. Yeah, we’re living in the future. These discs will be readable 14 billion years and can hold 360 terabytes of data, or around 7,000 Blu-Ray discs.

Plus they look like they’re straight out of Blade Runner.

According to the Arch foundation, the first arch disc contains Isaac Asimov’s Foundation, an epic series of deeply philosophical science-fiction novels. Throughout those novels, the protagonist seeks to preserve humanity’s knowledge in the face of an impending galactic disaster. The Arch Mission foundation says that we live in an uncertain age where planetary chaos and disaster seems ever more likely. Thus, the need to preserve the collected knowledge of humankind is dire. And, of course, shoot it into space on a really big rocket that goes boom. Oh, and in the most American fashion possible, by putting it orbit alongside a red convertible piloted by a single spacesuit, making it the most conspicuous thing in space possible:

This Arch library will orbit the Sun for at least millions of years alongside Elon’s Tesla Roadster. The Roadster will likely be the oddest object in the solar system, and thus is the perfect place to put an Arch library so that it can be noticed and retrieved in the distant future.

Of course, it might just look like a rock to any passing aliens. It is made of metals.  While the goals of the Arch Mission Foundation sounds well-intentioned (at least on the surface), calling any set of data the “collected knowledge of humankind” makes you really wonder who chose what to include in that library and what not to. The group’s founder has stated he wants to “put Wikipedia in space.” Sounds great. I’m sure the Pirahã people of the Amazon will love having their entire existence being summed up in 1600 words. The photos on the “crew” page of the foundation’s website don’t exactly represent the collective demographics of the entire human race, if you know what I mean. 

Is this really representative of the entirety human experience?

It also makes you wonder what could be on those discs that we don’t know about. The entire Foundation series wouldn’t take up more than a few hundred megabytes, tops. What about the other hundreds of terabytes? Is some group trying to seed space with a very specific vision of what human knowledge should be preserved in space and create a new human civilization where you can, I don’t know, marry your attractive cousins? Is Elon Musk trying to send a message to his home planet after landing here and benevolently giving us the technology of the future like Thomas Jerome Newton in The Man Who Fell to Earth? Is he going to fly away with all our water?

David Bowie could have easily played him in a movie, too.

I mean, if anyone is an alien, it’s that dude. It’s like he’s not even trying to hide it anymore. Or at least a Bond villain who hasn’t had his horrific accident that turns him evil yet. We’re still just living in his origin story.

Dark UFO Over Crete, Does The World Need To Worry About Invasion? Jan 11, 2018, UFO- Sighting News.

Date of sighting: January 11, 2018

Location of sighting: Rethymno, Crete

News source: http://china.greekreporter.com/希腊克里特岛惊现怪异飞碟云/

 

This UFO cloaked in a cloud was seen over Crete last week. You can see that its breaking through the clouds. Don't be fooled by these cloaked craft. Aliens are highly intelligent and often believe that human intelligence is incredibly inferior to them. Thus, humans will often assume the cloud is just a cloud. However, we at UFO Sightings Daily know different. Here it almost looks like an invasion. Very dark, almost sinister looking. 

Scott C. Waring

 

News states: 

Photographer Yiannis Gkikas snapped a rare scene on January 11 in Rethymno, Crete, Greece, when a huge cloud of disk-shaped aircraft appeared in the sky. The group's photos were subsequently posted on the Greek weather website Meteokrites.

Teotihuacan: An Ancient City That Resembles A Circuit Board When Viewed From Above

“From the air, Teotihuacan’s city layout mysteriously resembles a computer circuit board with two massive processor chips, which in this case are represented by the Pyramid of the Sun and the Moon.

The ancient city of Teotihuacan is one of the oldest Pre-Columbian cities in the American continent.

Built by an unknown civilization, the mysterious city was found devoured by vegetations when the ancient Aztecs arrived.

Excavations have shown that the structures of Teotihuacan have abnormal amount of Mica embedded into them, a fact that raises numerous questions.

Teotihuacan, the city of the gods

Teotihuacan from Nahuatl: Teōtihuācan, is the ”place where men become gods,” the “place where the gods were made, or city of the gods”. The name of Nahuatl origin was used by the Mexica, Aztecs, to identify this city built by a civilization before them and which was already in ruins when the Mexica saw it for the first time.

To date the name given by its original inhabitants is unknown.

The remains of the city are located northeast of the Valley of Mexico.

The city is shrouded in mystery for a number of reasons. Despite the fact that it was one of the most influential cities in the American continent, we know very little about it. In fact, the origins of Teotihuacán are still the subject of research among experts.

Around the beginning of the Christian era, Teotihuacan was a village that gained importance as a center of worship in the Anáhuac basin.

The first significant constructions are believed to have been erected at that time, as shown by excavations performed at the Pyramid of the Moon.

The city grew in importance during the Classic Period (3rd to 7th centuries AD).

At that stage, the city was an important commercial and political node that reached an area of almost 21 km2, with a population ranging from 100,000 to 200,000 inhabitants.

The influence of Teotihuacan was felt in all the directions of Mesoamerica, as shown by the discoveries in cities such as Tikal, Monte Albán, and other sites that had an important relationship with Teotihuacan.

Scholars are unsure of the ethnic identity of the first inhabitants of Teotihuacan.

Among the candidates are the Totonacs, and the Nahuas.

The most recent hypotheses suggest that Teotihuacan was a cosmopolitan city in whose flourishing groups of diverse ethnic origin were involved.

However, these are mere assumptions.

As noted previously, the identity of the people who founded Teotihuacan is a mystery.

Teotihuacan had long been abandoned before the arrival of the Spaniards to Mesoamerica. This means that the few references to the city that were preserved in the historical sources produced in the years after the Conquest of Mexico do not speak properly about the inhabitants of Teotihuacan but of the representation of those who lived after the Teotihuacan collapse.

The Nahua informants of Bernardino de Sahagún thought that Teotihuacan was the place where the gods met to give rise to Nahui Ollin, the Fifth Sun according to native mythology, a period which illuminates the contemporary era.

According to colonial sources, the Nahuas thought that Teotihuacan was built by the quinametzin, a race of giants that populated the world during the previous era and whose survivors hid away.

The temples, the pyramids of the city were imagined as massive tombs of the Gods who founded the city, a sacred place where after death, men would become gods.

For reasons that have not yet been fully elucidated, Teotihuacan collapsed towards the middle of the 8th century, giving rise to the Mesoamerican Epiclassic Period.

Teotihuacan was also apparently built mimicking the three stars of Orion.

According to archaeologists, the advanced design of Teotihuacansuggests that the ancient builders had the knowledge not only of architecture but of complex mathematical and astronomical sciences. One of the most amazing details about Teotihuacan, and what makes it different from other ancient sites is that when observed from the air, Teotihuacan’s city layout strangely resembles a computer circuit board with two large processor chips— the Sun Pyramid and the Moon Pyramid.

Researchers have also found numerous and remarkable similarities to the Great Pyramids of Egypt.

However, if the idea of Teotihuacan resembling a modern computer board doesn’t arouse your imagination, perhaps large amount of mica embedded into the monuments of Teotihuacan will.

Archaeologists have found that Teotihuacan’s structures are embedded with mica.

This mineral is found 3,000 miles away in Brazil and is found in nearly all buildings, housing complexes, temples and along the roads of Teotihuacan.

Excavations have revealed that the pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan contained considerable amounts of mica in layers up to 30 cm.

Certainly, Mica was not included in these constructions for decoration because you couldn’t actually see it, so it is clear that this mineral was incorporated into the monuments for another purpose.

Mica is stable when exposed to electricity, light, moisture, and extreme temperatures. It has superior electrical properties as an insulator and as a dielectric, and can support an electrostatic field while dissipating minimal energy in the form of heat; it can be split very thin (0.025 to 0.125 millimeters or thinner) while maintaining its electrical properties, has a high dielectric breakdown, is thermally stable to 500 °C, and is resistant to corona discharge.

At Teotihuacan, we basically have a massive ancient city, whose builders are unknown to history, with pyramids and surrounding structures that resemble a computer board when seen from the air.

In addition to that, we know that the builders of the ancient city incorporated Mica into the structures of the city. Mica wasn’t placed there for aesthetic purposes, which raises numerous questions. Is there perhaps an otherworldly influence behind Teotihuacan? And, is it possible that the entire city was not only built to serve as city, but to harness some sort of energy?

Scientists Find Sea Level Could Increase More Than Double By 2100

A study published on Monday noted that the rise in sea level is accelerating and could reach 66 centimeters by the end of the century, enough to cause significant problems in coastal cities and put millions of lives at risk.

The annual rate of increase in sea level, which is three millimeters, could reach 10 millimeters per year by 2100, according to a report published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS).

According to the study, based on 25 years of satellite data, the findings are “more or less consistent with the projections of the fifth evaluation report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)”.

The author of the analysis, Steve Nerem, said the acceleration, driven mainly by the accelerated melting of Greenland and Antarctica, “has the potential to double the rise in sea level by 2100, compared to projections that calculate a constant rate: more than 60 centimeters instead of 30.“

The professor of aerospace engineering sciences at the University of Colorado said that “it is almost certainly a conservative estimate.”

Climate change causes sea level rise in two ways. First, the higher concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere increase the temperature of the water, so the warm water expands.

“This thermal expansion in the oceans has already contributed to half of the seven centimeters average increase in sea level in the last quarter of the century,” explained the researcher.

In addition, the oceans rise with the increasing flow of water because of ice that melts rapidly at the poles.

“This article highlights the important role that satellite records can play in the validation of climate model projections,” added co-author John Fasullo, a climate researcher at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in the United States.

The scientists who were part of the study also come from the University of South Florida, NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Old Dominion University and the National Center for Atmospheric Research.

Melting, Melting and more melting

If sea levels rising isn’t a danger, researchers have recently also highlighted another worrisome fact.

 Scientists warn that climate change could accelerate the release of toxic Mercury. 

As melting permafrost releases mercury, eventually some of it will make it into the food chain—and into animals such as the Alaskan caribou. As noted by National Geographic, “in some forms, mercury is a powerful neurotoxin, and in children it can harm brain development, affecting cognition, memory, language and even motor and visual skills. Even in adults, excessive amounts can hamper vision, speech and muscle movements, compromise the reproductive and immune systems, and cause cardiovascular problems.”

If global warming ends up melting the permafrost—the permanently frozen surface layer of the northern hemisphere—it could trigger a global ecological catastrophe, since this area contains more than 15 million gallons (58 million liters) of mercury buried according to a group of researchers.

Puma Punku: Evidence Of Laser-Like Tools Used By Ancient Civilizations?

Located 45 miles west of La Paz high in the Andes mountains, lie the mystifying ancient ruins of Puma Punku.

The megalithic stones found there are considered among the largest on the planet. Some boulders measure up to 26 feet long and weighing more than 100 tons each.

Puma Punku is a massive temple complex part of the Tiwanaku Site near Tiwanaku, Bolivia.

Tiwanaku is vital in Incan legends since it is believed to be the site where the world was created by the Gods.

Puma Punku, in turn, means “The Door of the Puma.”

As noted by the Andean specialist, Binghamton University Anthropology professor W. H. Isbell,  a radiocarbon date was obtained from organic material from lowermost and oldest layer of mound-fill forming the Puma Punku. This segment was deposited during the first of three construction epochs and dates the initial construction of the Puma Punku at 1510 ±25 B.P.

Puma Punku is so unusual in the way that it was constructed, shaped and positioned, that many scholars consider it is the most intriguing ancient site on the planet.

Mainstream experts believe the blocks found at Puma Punku were formed by hand with primitive stone tools.

However, some researchers point to the intricate stonework as evidence of the use of advanced precision technology.

How could primitive people, living thousands of years ago, have produced such flawless stonework, without access to any form of technology? Did they use sticks and stones?

Or, is it possible that the ancient constructors of Puma Punku manufactured the megalithic stones with advanced technology?

Perhaps with the use of precision tools that could have facilitated them to achieve these marvels of engineering and construction, displaying clean cuts, and precise angles.

If we look at the stones at Puma Punku carefully, you can see amazing intricate stonework, almost as if they used machine tools or even lasers.

It’s incredible.

At Puma Punku you will find mystifying stones with perfect right angles, and some rocks at Puma Punku have small drill holes that were evenly spaced along the groove. This has driven many authors to suggest that power tools may have been used on this unusual block of stone.

After years of research, archaeologists have concluded how the massive stones were cut at quarries nearly one hundred kilometers away and then rolled to Puma Punku on logs, supposedly.

However, what scholars seem to forget and what researchers rarely talk about is that Puma Punku is positioned at an altitude of 12,800 feet. This means the ancient complex was built above the natural tree line, meaning that NO trees grew in that area, which in turn signifies that no trees were cut down in order to use wooden rollers. This leads us to the following question: What did they use?

How did ancient mankind transport these supermassive blocks of stone to their destination?

Mainstream scholars have too many questions about the technology used by its builders, the transportation, and logistics, etc..

It is difficult to believe that all of this was accomplished without the use of power tools and sophisticated means of transportation.

This is precisely why ancient astronaut theorists and many authors say that transporting these massive blocks of granite from their quarries and moving them to Puma Punku would have required some type of advanced technology, huge lifting vehicles. In other words, technologies and means which ancient civilizations simply did not possess at that time, or at least that is what we think.

Puma Punku is without a doubt one of those places where, when you observe incredible ancient constructions, shaped with that much perfection, your imagination lights up. There are so many possibilities at one point, and conventional archaeological explanations just do not fit in one’s logic at that point.

In 1549, while seeking the capital of the ancient Inca Empire, Spanish conquistadors led by Pedro Cieza de León crossed into Bolivia and discovered the ruins of an ancient settlement called Tiahuanaco.

Located less than a quarter-mile northeast of Puma Punku, scientists believe that Tiahuanaco was once the center of a prosperous ancient civilization with more than 40,000 inhabitants.

Tiahuanaco is reasonably the greatest Native American civilization that many people haven’t heard of.

It was one of the most important predecessors of the ancient Inca and their history. They accomplished the unimaginable in architecture, in political development, in agriculture, and in many other craft industries which were on a very high level. Most scholars agree that Tiahuanaco was mysteriously abandoned around 1100 AD, just like other ancient civilizations like the Maya.

In the 1960s, the Bolivian government excavated the Subterranean Temple at Tiahuanaco. Inside the walls of the squared sunken courtyard are hundreds of stone heads with a diverse range of features. It’s a mixture of different races.

It’s believed that depicted inside the walls of the squared sunken courtyard are all the races of mankind, even elongated skulls. Furthermore, we have people wearing turbans, people with broad noses, people with thin noses, we have depictions of people with thick lips, people with thin lips, and some of the statues are particularly unusual since they do not seem to represent the native population.

In other words, and as put by many researchers who have visited the ancient site, they seem to symbolize every type and shape of human heads existing on the planet.

Two of them, which are very intriguing, is white in color, look very much like grey alien heads.

Researchers say that a large statue at the center of the sunken temple depicts the creator god, known as Viracocha.

Was Viracocha an ancient alien God?

However, Viracocha is depicted with extremely rare facial features.

The ancient inhabitants and builders of Tiahuanaco depicted their most prominent god with features unlike their own.

Viracocha is depicted having a beard and a mustache, and that is a very unusual thing because American Indians do not have beards and mustaches.

One of the most significant archaeological artifacts ever found in Tiahuanaco is the Fuente Magna Bowl.

It’s a ceramic bowl, and it has Sumerian cuneiform and Proto-Sumerian hieroglyphic script written on it.

But wait a minute, these two civilizations weren’t anywhere near one another!

In fact, they were separated by more than 8.000 miles, and yet this draws a direct connection between the ancient Sumerians and Tiahuanaco, and Puma Punku.

The idea of Sumerian writing exists at Puma Punku, and Tiahuanaco would seem to relate to the late Zecharia Sitchin and his ideas that the Sumerians were interacting with these “space beings” called the Annunaki.

Interestingly, in that case, the Annunaki were in Sumeria but also at Puma Punku and Tiahuanaco in South America.

Formerly SECRET memo shows how the Air Force investigated UFO sightings

In the Central Intelligence Agency’s declassified archives is a formerly SECRET memo, dated February 17th, 1967, from the Chief of the CIA’s Technical Intelligence Division entitled “Photo Analysis of UFO Photography.”

That memo served as a response to a request by the Deputy Director of The National Photographic Interpretation Center to analyze photographic evidence of what was purported to be an unidentified flying object, provided by the Aerial Phenomenon Office of the Foreign Technology Department at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio.

Of the nine photographs referenced in the memo, only three remain in the declassified document: two low-resolution, photocopied scans …

and an artist’s interpretation of the UFO. A fourth photo of a helicopter is referenced but not included.

The first two photos were taken by Major Raymond Nyls of the U.S. Air Force as part of an initial investigation of the UFO “exposure station.” Nyls visited the site on the shore of Lake St. Clair, Michigan in an attempt to duplicate the exact position of the camera in the original photographs. The investigation provided measurements of the area and the surrounding objects in the hopes of providing an accurate scale to estimate the size of the UFO.

Due to an overall lack of data, the analysis was heavily based on the measurements Nyls made during his visit to the exposure site. The accuracy of the report was dependent on the accuracy of his measurements. Investigators operated under a number of assumptions, the first being that the UFO was 0.25 miles away from the camera. Among the other assumptions were that Nyl’s measurements were accurate, the photographs were in full format, the UFO was circular, and that adjustments to the camera’s focal length were unimportant to the analysis.

The memo contains multiple references to the shaky foundation of the data, admitting that their entire investigation of the photographs was built on estimates and faith in Nyls’ accuracy. Due to the lack of solid quantitative data, the results were inconclusive.

Nyls was no stranger to photographic UFO investigations. In fact, according to The Detroit News, a month after the investigation at Lake St. Clair, Nyls recreated a photograph of a UFO taken by brothers Grant and Dan Jaroslaw of Harrison Township, MI using a block of wood hanging from a swingset. A lie detector failed to support the brothers’ story.

Crypto-currency craze ‘hinders search for alien life’

Scientists listening out for broadcasts by extra-terrestrials are struggling to get the computer hardware they need, thanks to the crypto-currency mining craze, a radio-astronomer has said.

Seti (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) wants to expand operations at two observatories.

However, it has found that key computer chips are in short supply.

“We’d like to use the latest GPUs [graphics processing units]… and we can’t get ’em,” said Dan Werthimer.

Demand for GPUs has soared recently thanks to crypto-currency mining.

“That’s limiting our search for extra-terrestrials, to try to answer the question, ‘Are we alone? Is there anybody out there?’,” Dr Werthimer told the BBC.

“This is a new problem, it’s only happened on orders we’ve been trying to make in the last couple of months.”

Mining a currency such as Bitcoin or Ethereum involves connecting computers to a global network and using them to solve complex mathematical puzzles.

This forms part of the process of validating transactions made by people who use the currency.

As a reward for this work, the miners receive a small crypto-currency payment, making it potentially profitable.

GPUs are high-performance chips and aren’t just used for powering video games – they may be stacked together by Bitcoin miners, radio-astronomers or others interested in processing large amounts of data for certain applications.

“At Seti we want to look at as many frequency channels as we possibly can because we don’t know what frequency ET will be broadcasting on and we want to look for lots of different signal types – is it AM or FM, what communication are they using?” explained Dr Werthimer, who is chief scientist at the Berkeley Seti Research Center.

“That takes a lot of computing power.”

He added that at some telescopes, Seti has around 100 GPUs crunching data from large listening arrays.

These arrays can pick up the faintest of radio frequencies that have been flung across our solar system from elsewhere in the universe – often from natural phenomena such as collapsing stars.

Seti is currently trying to improve its capacity for analysing such data at two observatories – Green Bank in West Virginia and Parkes in Australia.

But the institute has been hit by the GPU shortage.

“We’ve got the money, we’ve contacted the vendors, and they say, ‘we just don’t have them’,” said Dr Werthimer.

Earlier this year, there were reports that video gamers had been hit by a sudden rise in the cost of GPUs, thanks in particular to a rise in Ethereum mining, which can be done with chips aimed at consumers.

At the time, major chip-maker Nvidia said that retailers should make arrangements to make sure gamers’ demands were met.

Star search

Other radio-astronomers have been affected.

A group looking for evidence of the earliest stars in the universe was recently shocked to see that the cost of the GPUs it wanted had doubled.

“We’re in the process of expanding our telescope – we got a grant from the National Science Foundation here in the United States to do so,” said Aaron Parsons at the University of California at Berkeley.

Prof Parsons’ radio telescope array, the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionisation Array (Hera) project, is an American, British and South African venture located in South Africa’s western plains.

It has been designed to listen to low frequency radio waves emitted by the reionising hydrogen gas that permeated the universe before the first stars and galaxies formed.

GPUs are needed in order to bring together data from Hera’s many small radio telescopes – this synthesises a much larger array, offering an especially wide field of view peering out into the universe.

Three months ago, the Hera team had budgeted for a set of GPUs that cost around $500 ($360) – the price has since doubled to $1,000.

“We’ll be able to weather it but it is coming out of our contingency budget.” added Prof Parsons.

“We’re buying a lot of these things, it’s going to end up costing about $32,000 extra.”

He also said he was concerned that future work could even be stopped in its tracks, should the GPU shortage worsen.

Mining’s meteoric rise

Thanks in part to a recent boom in the price of crypto-currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, mining crypto-currencies has never been more popular.

While Bitcoin miners have largely moved on to specialised “Asic” chips that have been designed from scratch to support mining, it’s still possible to use GPUs on the Ethereum mining network to lucrative ends, according to cyber-security expert Matthew Hickey at Hacker House.

“[You can] use GPUs effectively to turn a small profit, you’re not going to make millions but if you put 12 or 24 GPUs together, you’ll make back the cost in six months,” he told the BBC.

GPUs are versatile, he added, pointing out that cyber-security experts sometimes use them for password-cracking experiments, in which computers make many millions of attempts at breaking into a system.

But Mr Hickey has also noticed that GPUs are now being sold on sites such as Ebay at inflated prices.

“It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find suppliers and cards,” he said.

Strange UFO lights filmed over Colorado 13-Jan-2018

Check out this amazing footage of a bright lights hovering in the sky above Colorado. This happened on 13th January 2018.

Witness report:

 Glowing red/orange objects stayed in the same place for 30 min. Colors went from dark orange to light orange from side to side and changed sequence. It started out with two. Then three. Then around6-7, Then would go back to smaller, Then start over again

8:00 pm, Tuesday, February 13th. We were driving home from the grocery store, on a road through the mountains. We noticed a series of orbs moving horizontally across the sky in front of us. Each orb would light up, and then would start to fade. As one would start to darken, the light next to it would light up, before they would all disappear. The first sighting of the same phenomenon, the lights appeared to be stacked in two horizontal rows, but went to only one row afterward. We pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road, as this happened again, and continued to watch. At one point, the orbs lit up and branched out to the left and right, before turning back and going toward the middle again. We turned the vehicle around and drove back toward the store, turned back and watched again. The video was taken, during the last series of light orbs. After that, the sky went black and nothing else was witnessed.

Britain’s most mysterious UFO sightings revealed for first time

Harley Tamplin

Is the north of England a UFO hotspot?

Three eyewitness accounts of mysterious UFO sightings that have never been explained have emerged for the first time.

Never-before-heard reports describe the close encounters, all of which happened in the north of England in the 1980s.

UFO researchers including investigator Philip Mantle looked into all three cases at the time – but they were left to lie on file as no explanation for them could be found.

While most sightings are quickly and easily identified by experts, the three cases left Mr Mantle ‘scratching his head’.

He said: ‘No aircraft, balloons or meteorological phenomenon could account for them and this is a time long before Chinese lanterns.

‘There are of course some similarities in these sightings the most notable one being the lack of any noise made by the objects. Whether this is relevant or significant is debateable but it’s a curiosity nonetheless.

‘The one thing that is for certain is that UFOs were the last thing on the mind of any of these witnesses prior to their observations.’

Darwen, Lancashire, in November 1985

The woman who saw the object later provided this drawing of it

Over the span of eight minutes – an unusually long time for a UFO sighting – a woman claimed she saw a diamond-shaped object in the sky about 200-300 feet above her.

She told the researchers that she saw two round red lights as she walked to her car at 7.30pm, adding that there was no noise as the object moved through the air.

Describing the scene, she said: ‘I could not see the lights as it moved overhead but I could see the underneath of the object.

‘This object was very large and seemed to be very heavy looking. I kept wondering how something so big and heavy looking could move so slowly and not make a noise.

‘I kept watching and took in as much detail as I could. The object was huge and its underneath had what looked like round-headed studs.

‘The object moved overhead and I kept watching it until it was almost out of sight at which point it seemed to tilt upwards and shoot off at a great speed and was gone.’

Bonsall Moor, Derbyshire, in December 1986

A couple described seeing a ‘star-shaped’ object

John Stoddard and his family were about to leave the cottage where they had spent a holiday on New Year’s Eve, 1986.

He was gazing at the stars at 7.22am when he noticed one of the ‘stars’ moving – in the direction of the family from over hills in the distance. 

Mr Stoddard was joined by his wife – who also reported seeing the same object – it was just above some trees in a nearby field.

The couple described the object flying up to them at a low speed of about 5-10mph, and opening up into a giant triangle with white lights surrounding it.

Mr Stoddard, who said it was the size of a double-decker-bus, said both he and his wife were excited but also scared by what they saw.

The object moved slowly out of view of the family over the moors.

Rochdale, Lancashire, in August 1987

A dog walker saw these flying objects, before they disappeared after 10 seconds

A dog walker gave an extremely detailed description of unidentified objects of ‘tremendous’ size that flew through the night sky at more than 100mph.

John Doherty was on one of his late night dog walks at about 10pm  he first noticed shimmering lights in the distance, through broken clouds.

He claimed to have seen them passing in and out of the clouds, and said they may have been rotating, causing them to ‘shimmer’.

Mr Doherty added that each object had three bright lights on its underside, that were so powerful they shone through the clouds.

He watched them until they disappeared after about 10 seconds.

UFO Near Clouds Over Hungary On Feb 11, 2018, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Feb 11, 2018
Location of sighting: Hungary

This UFO was caught using an infrared camera during the day. ColourUFO of Youtube caught it. He is an expert that catches UFO orbs on almost a daily basis with his infrared camera. The advantage of using a camera like this is that it can see light that they human eye cannot, thus any cloaked craft will become visible.

'Oumuamua had a violent past and has been tumbling around for billions of years

Queen's University Belfast

'Oumuamua flew through our solar system in October and was originally thought to be a comet, then it was later revealed as a cucumber-shaped asteroid.

Since October, Dr. Wes Fraser, alongside Dr. Pedro Lacerda, Dr. Michele Bannister, and Professor Alan Fitzsimmons, all from Queen's University Belfast's School of Mathematics and Physics, have been analysing the brightness measurements of the object. They have been working with an international team, including Dr. Petr Pravec from the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Dr. Colin Snodgrass from The Open University and Igor Smolic ́from the University of Belgrade.

Straight away, they discovered that 'Oumuamua wasn't spinning periodically like most of the small asteroids and bodies that we see in our solar system. Instead, it is tumbling, or spinning chaotically, and could have been for many billions of years.

While it is difficult to pinpoint the exact reason for this, it is thought that 'Oumuamua impacted with another asteroid before it was fiercely thrown out of its system and into interstellar space.

Dr. Fraser explains: "Our modeling of this body suggests the tumbling will last for many billions of years to hundreds of billions of years before internal stresses cause it to rotate normally again.

"While we don't know the cause of the tumbling, we predict that it was most likely sent tumbling by an impact with another planetesimal in its system, before it was ejected into interstellar space."

Until now, scientists had been puzzled that 'Oumuamua's colour varied between measurements. However, Dr. Fraser's research has now revealed that its surface is spotty and that when the long face of the cucumber-shaped object was facing telescopes on Earth it was largely red but the rest of the body was neutral coloured, like dirty snow.

Dr. Fraser explains: "Most of the surface reflects neutrally but one of its long faces has a large red region. This argues for broad compositional variations, which is unusual for such a small body."

The research findings, which have been published in Nature Astronomy, have helped to build a more accurate profile of 'Oumuamua.

"We now know that beyond its unusual elongated shape, this space cucumber had origins around another star, has had a violent past, and tumbles chaotically because of it. Our results are really helping to paint a more complete picture of this strange interstellar interloper. It is quite unusual compared to most asteroids and comets we see in our own solar system," comments Dr. Fraser.

Since 'Oumuamua was spotted in October, a team of researchers at Queen's University Belfast have been analysing the object in detail. This is the third paper to be published by their team, which includes Ph.D. students Meabh Hyland and Thomas Seccull. Dr. Wes Fraser, Dr. Michele Bannister, Dr. Pedro Lacerda and Professor Alan Fitzsimmons have been supported by funding from the Science and Technology Facilities Council for their research.

QAnon Corroborates Hawaii Missile Attack & Hunt for Rogue CIA Submarine

WRITTEN BY DR MICHAEL SALLA 

On February 11, the anonymous whistleblower “QAnon” posted information that corroborates claims that a false flag ballistic missile attack was launched against Hawaii on January 13, and that a submarine linked to the CIA is currently being hunted by the U.S. and other regional military forces.

QAnon has quickly grown in popularity since first appearing in late October, 2017 discussing the “coming storm” of revelations, document dumps, trials, events, etc., linked to Trump White House pledges to “Drain the Swamp”.

Today QAnon has an estimated audience of millions who closely follow his/her posts. Major media sources such as Newsweek have published highly critical stories attempt to dismiss QAnon as just the latest incarnation of unsubstantiated right wing conspiracy theories.

QAnon’s cryptic style of communication involves questions, links, photos, acronyms and codes, which are used as breadcrumbs for the reader to learn about highly classified efforts underway by White Hats in the government/military opposed to Deep State corruption and human rights abuses in the U.S. and around the world.

The most telling official document that substantiates QAnon’s claims to date is an extraordinary Executive Order passed by President Trump on December 21, 2017 declaring a national emergency and freezing the financial assets of anyone involved in human rights abuses and corruption anywhere around the world.

The mainstream media has strangely ignored Trump’s “Executive Order Blocking the Property of Persons Involved in Serious Human Abuse or Corruption”, and its deep significance, especially given what QAnon has previously stated. If Trump’s Executive Order was indeed targeting the Deep State, it’s not surprising that it would provoke a strong reaction by powerful groups suddenly cut off from their financial assets.

That’s where the ballistic missile alert on the morning of January 13 in Hawaii becomes relevant. As discussed in three previous articles (see here, here and here), there have been a number of whistleblowers, witnesses and analysts who have all said the missile alert was genuine, and not a false alarm at all, as public officials contend.

QAnon followed the Hawaii missile alert the next day warning about an upcoming week of false flag attacks by the Deep State. This implied that the Hawaii incident was part of a series of false flag attacks, and not a false alarm.

Source: https://qcodefag.github.io/

Since January 14, however, QAnon has not said much to cast light on the Hawaii ballistic missile alert. That is until February 11 when QAnon provided a long post referring to a recent false flag missile attack intended to start a war. The relevant post appears below and the section of comments relevant to the Hawaii missile alert is highlighted in red.

Source: https://qcodefag.github.io/

It is worth examining QAnon’s questions in light of what has been previously learned about the Hawaii missile alert and Trump’s December 21 Executive Order. QAnon wrote:  

Ask yourself, who is trying to start a war?

The most obvious answer is those targeted by Trump’s Executive Order. Individuals and groups responsible for human rights abuses and corruption in the U.S. and globally, have the most to lose if their financial assets are frozen.

QAnon then wrote:

Ask yourself, if a missile was launched by rogue actors, what would be the purpose?

The purpose would be to create a false flag attack where blame would be pinned on a credible state actor capable of launching a ballistic missile that could hit Hawaii: North Korea. The “rogue actors” really responsible for the attack, would thereby have created a scenario where the U.S. military would have been forced to respond.

QAnon next pointedly asks:

Ask yourself, what would/should immediately start a WAR?

We know from World War II history that the December 7, 1941, surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, home of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, was the catalyst for America entering the war. The next day, the U.S. Congress overwhelmingly voted to declare war on the Empire of Japan.

QAnon is here telling us that a successful nuclear missile attack on Pearl Harbor would have triggered a similar War Declaration by the U.S. Congress against the alleged perpetrator. North Korea.

Were the “rogue actors” behind the attack, also hoping that an unsuccessful nuclear missile attack, in the event the missile was shot down, would also trigger war?

This possibility arises from what an anonymous Hickham Air Force Base fusion analyst says he overheard after the missile was shot down. In a post to a website protecting the anonymity of posters, s/he said:

Most significant here is what the analyst says he overheard a Federal Investigator and a Hawaii state official say about Trump’s refusal to order a retaliation “that this “Demonstrated weakness in the Trump admin and a refusal to protect the people”.

QAnon’s next question is very important for identifying who was behind the missile Hawaii attack:

Ask yourself “would the PUBLIC understand the following statement: Rogue actors (Clowns/US former heads of State) initiated a missile launch in order to ‘force’ the US into a WAR/conflict against X?”

QAnon has previously referred to the CIA as “Clowns in Action”, and has described former Presidents Bush (Snr), Clinton and Obama as Deep State/CIA assets. In short, “Clowns” is QAnon’s codeword for the CIA.

In a previous article, I provided documentary evidence supporting insider claims that the CIA’s clandestine services division created a shadowy Navy with its own aircraft, ballistic missile carrying submarines, and even an aircraft carrier battle group that all together comprises a “Dark Fleet”.

This is where QAnon’s cryptic references in other February 11 posts to “Red October” become pertinent. 

Source: https://qcodefag.github.io/

In response to a question seeking clarification on what he means by “Red October”, QAnon wrote:

Source: https://qcodefag.github.io/

QAnon is quite clear that s/he is referring to the famed 1990 movie, “The Hunt for Red October”. The plot of the movie described how the major powers were all hunting for a rogue Soviet submarine equipped with ballistic nuclear weapons whose captain and officers wished to defect with their new stealth technology.

QAnon’s repeated references to Red October is telling us that a similar scenario is currently occurring with the U.S. and other major world powers all seeking a rogue CIA submarine equipped with ballistic nuclear missiles and advanced stealth technology. Rather than the captain and crew wishing to defect however, the CIA submarine may be seeking a new opportunity to launch a false flag attack designed to precipitate a major regional war.

While QAnon remains controversial in the major media, multiple sources have claimed s/he is the real deal and deserves serious consideration. Many alternative media sites closely follow QAnon’s information including Dr. Jerome Corsi who has become the resident Infowars.com expert on QAnon. 

QAnon’s references to a recent missile attack by rogue actors wishing to start a major war needs to be considered with what we know about the January 13 Hawaii missile alert.

QAnon is telling us that it was not a false alarm, and that it was a genuine attempt to start a major war by pinning the blame for a contrived nuclear attack, successful or not, on North Korea. The CIA linked submarine involved is apparently still at large, and capable of attempting further false flag attacks using ballistic nuclear missiles.

The UFO hotel that'll leave you starry-eyed! Stunning renderings emerge of spaceship-style lodge that's set to open beneath a glacier in the Arctic Circle

• Hotel Svart will sit in a breathtaking location at the foot of Svartisen - Norway's second largest glacier 
• Architects went about crafting the unusual structure so it will use 85 per cent less energy than a regular hotel
• The eco-friendly building will be rigged up to a geothermal well so naturally-heated water will run throughout

By Sadie Whitelocks for MailOnline

You'll be left starry-eyed at this UFO-style hotel, set to touch down in the Arctic Circle.  

Incredible renderings have emerged of the spaceship-style lodge, which is scheduled to open in 2021 in northern Norway just above the Arctic Circle.

The images show how hotel Svart will sit in a breathtaking location at the foot of Svartisen - Norway's second largest glacier - and it will be set above the water on stilts. Architects went about crafting the unusual structure so it will use 85 per cent less energy than a regular hotel would.

Scheduled for a 2021 opening, hotel Svart will sit in a breathtaking location at the foot of Svartisen - Norway's second largest glacier. Pictured above, a computer rendering showing an aerial view of the finished design

They plan on using wood for the most part - instead of steel and concrete - to build the ring-shaped inn and it will be adorned with solar panels to harvest sunlight for power.

The walls of the eco-friendly building have been strategically designed to insulate in the winter and allow for ventilation in the summer. 

And the hotel will be rigged up to a geothermal well, so naturally-heated water will run throughout.

Topping it off, all of the furnishings will be made from recycled or natural materials. 

According to Hotel News Now, energy is the second largest spending category for hotels after employment. 

The walls of the building have been strategically designed to insulate in the winter and allow for ventilation in the summer. And the hotel will be rigged up to a geothermal well, so naturally heated water will run throughout

According to a study conducted by Hotel Energy Solutions in 2011, energy is the second largest spending category for hotels after employment.

The firm’s analysis revealed that energy in hotels is mainly consumed by temperature regulation, which includes heating, hot water and air conditioning. 

Hotel Svart was designed by a team from the Oslo-based architecture firm Snøhetta.

Commenting on the novel design idea, Snøhetta's co-founder Kjetil Trædal Thorsen, said: 'Building in such a precious environment comes with some clear obligations in terms of preserving the natural beauty and the fauna and flora of the site.

'It was important for us to design a sustainable building that will leave a minimal environmental footprint on this beautiful Northern nature. 

Along with being eco-friendly, another draw for visitors will be the hotel's location. Situated just above the Arctic Circle in a remote patch of untouched countryside, stays at Svart will provide the perfect opportunity to see the ethereal Northern Lights

The hotel is set to offer various outdoors activities including hiking, kayaking and mountain biking

'Building an energy positive and low-impact hotel is an essential factor to create a sustainable tourist destination respecting the unique features of the plot; the rare plant species, the clean waters and the blue ice of the Svartisen glacier.'  

Along with being eco-friendly, another draw for visitors will be the hotel's location.

Situated just above the Arctic Circle in a remote patch of untouched countryside, stays at Svart will provide the perfect opportunity to see the ethereal Northern Lights.

Other outdoor activities set to be on offer include hiking, kayaking and mountain biking.

Mysterious UFO ‘object’ spotted near Area 51 on Google Maps

Jasper Hamill

Is this an alien craft – or just a boring old cesspit?

A strange and unidentified object has been spotted outside a military base near Area 51.

Pictures of the weird object were first posted to Twitter by SecureTeam10, a YouTube channel which describes itself as ‘the number one source for breaking news and exposure of the alien phenomenon’.

'What the heck is this at Area 51?’

SecureTeam10 asked. We have been given the Google Maps coordinates of the object by a Twitter user named Joshua B, who lives in California.

He also posted a screenshot from a different mapping service which shows a similar shape dug from the sand nearby as well as sand in the middle of the object.

The bizarre shape was spotted in a remote area near a military base

The ‘UFO’ was actually spotted near Naval Weapons Center China Lake, which is about 500 miles away from Area 51.

Some observers have suggested it’s a water reservoir or even a cesspit.

There is a boat nearby, which indicates that it could be used for sailing or perhaps testing boats.

However, this rather prosaic explanation was not enough for some Twitterers.

There are boats and other vehicles located near the ‘anomaly’

‘That, my friends, is one of the ships that’ll be used in a fake alien invasion,’ one nervous chap tremored.

‘Will be used to scare the masses.

Remember this pic.’ Others questioned why you would test boats in a desert – and also whether the site was a military testing zone.

One person said: ‘It’s for boats. There is a boat nearby. That is a large pool of water with a launch ramp. Why is the question? WHY?’

Can you explain the weird sighting on Google Maps?

NASA Wants to Build a Super Quiet Supersonic Jet

Long March 3B launches BeiDou-3 MEO-3 & MEO-4

Monday saw the seventh orbital launch of the year by China, with a Long March-3B/YZ-1 orbiting a new pair of navigation satellites. The launch took place at 05:03 UTC from the LC2 Launch Complex of the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, Sichuan province. It took over four hours to complete the mission.

It is expected that the Beidou-3MEO3 (Beidou-28) and Beidou-3MEO4 (Beidou-29) satellites were onboard. The MEO satellites are the Medium Earth Orbit component of the third phase of the Chinese Beidou (Compass) satellite navigation system. The satellites are part of a fleet that will expand the system to a global navigation coverage.

The satellites are using a new bus that features a phased array antenna for navigation signals and a laser retroreflector, with a launch mass 1,014 kg. Spacecraft dimensions are noted to be 2.25 by 1.0 by 1.22 meters. Usually, the satellites reside in a 21,500 – 21,400 km nominal orbit at 55.5 degrees.

The previous launch on the series took place on January 12th, when the Long March-3B/Y1 (Y45/Y5) launch vehicle orbited the Beidou-3MEO7 (Beidou-26) and Beidou-3MEO8 (Beidou-27) satellites. On November 5, 2017, the Long March-3B/Y1 (Y46/Y4) orbited the Beidou-3MEO1 (Beidou-24) and the Beidou-3MEO2 (Beidou-25) satellites.

BeiDou-3 satellite, as rendered by J Huart.

In March another Long March-3B/Y1 launch vehicle should orbit the Beidou-3MEO5 (Beidou-30) and the Beidou-3MEO6 (Beidou-31) satellites.

The Beidou Phase III system includes the migration of its civil Beidou 1 or B1 signal from 1561.098 MHz to a frequency centered at 1575.42 MHz – the same as the GPS L1 and Galileo E1 civil signals – and its transformation from a quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation to a multiplexed binary offset carrier (MBOC) modulation similar to the future GPS L1C and Galileo’s E1.

The Phase II B1 open service signal uses QPSK modulation with 4.092 megahertz bandwidth centered at 1561.098 MHz.

The current Beidou constellation spacecraft are transmitting open and authorized signals at B2 (1207.14 MHz) and an authorized service at B3 (1268.52 MHz).

Real-time, stand-alone Beidou horizontal positioning accuracy was classed as better than 6 meters (95 percent) and with a vertical accuracy better than 10 meters (95 percent).

The Compass Navigation Satellite System (CNSS) is China’s satellite navigation system, approved by the Chinese government in 2004, capable of providing continuous, real-time passive 3D geo-spatial positioning and speed measurement.

The Chinese navigation system is being developed and deployed in three phases. Phase 1 (starting in 2003), consisted of an experimental regional navigation system, BeiDou-1, which provided active navigation service.

Phase 2 (started in 2012), consisted of a reduced satellite constellation and provides open service over China. This phase aimed at deploying a system with passive positioning and timing capability over a regional area.

Phase 3 aims for full operational capability by 2020 with a constellation of 27 MEOs plus 5 GEOs and the existing 3 IGSOs satellites of the regional system. CNSS would provide global navigation services, similarly to the GPS, GLONASS or Galileo systems.

CNSS is expected to support two different kinds of general services: RDSS and RNSS. In the Radio Determination Satellite Service (RDSS), the user position is computed by a ground station using the round trip time of signals exchanged via GEO satellite. The RDSS long-term feature further includes short message communication (guaranteeing backward compatibility with Beidou-1), large volume message communication, information connection, and extended coverage.

The Radio Navigation Satellite Service (RNSS) is very similar to that provided by GPS and Galileo and is designed to achieve similar performances.

The long-term goal is to develop a global navigation satellite network similar to the GPS and GLONASS by 2020 eventually consisting a constellation of 35 vehicles, including 27 MEO (21,500 km orbits) satellites, three IGSO satellites (inclined at 55 degrees) and five GSO satellites.

The system will be dual-use, based on a civilian service that will provide an accuracy of 10 meters in the user position, 0.2 m/s on the user velocity and 50 nanoseconds in time accuracy; and the military and authorized user’s service, providing higher accuracies. The first phase of the project will involve coverage of the Chinese territory. However, the future Compass constellation will cover the entire globe.

This mission is also the second flight of the Long March-3B/YZ-1 (Chang Zheng-3B/YZ-1) version of the Long March-3B.

Long March 3B – via ChinaNews.com

The launcher was developed from the Chang Zheng-3A. The CZ-3B features enlarged launch propellant tanks, improved computer systems, a larger 4.2 meter diameter payload fairing and the addition of four strap-on boosters in the core stage that provide additional help during the first phase of the launch.

The rocket is capable of launching an 11,200 kg satellite to a low Earth orbit or a 5,100 kg cargo to a geosynchronous transfer orbit.

The CZ-3B/G2 (Enhanced Version) launch vehicle was developed from the CZ-3B, increasing the GTO capacity up to 5,500kg. The CZ-3B/E has nearly the same configurations with CZ-3B bar its enlarged core stage and boosters.

On May 14, 2007, the first flight of CZ-3B/G2 was performed successfully, accurately sending the NigcomSat-1 into pre-determined orbit. With the GTO launch capability of 5,500kg, CZ-3B/G2 is dedicated for launching heavy GEO communications satellite.

The rocket structure also combines all sub-systems together and is composed of four strap-on boosters, a first stage, a second stage, a third stage and payload fairing.

The first two stages, as well as the four strap-on boosters, use hypergolic (N2O4/UDMH) fuel while the third stage uses cryogenic (LOX/LH2) fuel. The total length of the CZ-3B is 54.838 meters, with a diameter of 3.35 meters on the core stage and 3.00 meters on the third stage.

Long March 3B

On the first stage, the CZ-3B uses a YF-21C engine with a 2,961.6 kN thrust and a specific impulse of 2,556.5 Ns/kg. The first stage diameter is 3.35 m and the stage length is 23.272 m.

Each strap-on booster is equipped with a YF-25 engine with a 740.4 kN thrust and a specific impulse of 2,556.2 Ns/kg. The strap-on booster diameter is 2.25 m and the strap-on booster length is 15.326 m.

The second stage is equipped with a YF-24E (main engine – 742 kN / 2,922.57 Ns/kg; four vernier engines – 47.1 kN / 2,910.5 Ns/kg each). The second stage diameter is 3.35 m and the stage length is 12.920 m.

The third stage is equipped with a YF-75 engine developing 167.17 kN and with a specific impulse of 4,295 Ns/kg. The fairing diameter of the CZ-3B is 4.00 meters and has a length of 9.56 meters.

The Yuanzheng-1 (“Expedition-1″) uses a small thrust 6.5 kN engine burning UDMH/N2O4 with a specific impulse at 3,092 m/s. The upper stage should be able to conduct two burns, having a 6.5 hour lifetime and is capable of achieving a variety of orbits.

It will be adapted for use on the CZ-3A/B/C series mainly for direct MEO/GEO insertion missions (mostly for the navigation satellites of the Beidou GNSS).

A previous Long March 3B launch via the control center.

The typical flight sequence for the LM-3B launch vehicle in a standard GTO mission starts with the ignition of the first stage engines together with the ignition of the four liquid strap-on boosters. General launch profile sees the launch vehicle doing the pitch over maneuver at 10 seconds after leaving the launch platform. At two minutes 27 seconds into the flight, boosters shutdown occurs and separation follows one second later.

First stage shutdown takes place at 2 minutes 25 seconds, and stage separation two seconds later with the second stage ignition. The separation of the fairing occurs 3 minutes 35 seconds into the flight.

Second stage main engine shutdown takes place 5 minutes and 25 seconds into the flight and second stage Vernier engines shutdown takes place five seconds later, followed by the separation between the second and the third stage, and third stage first ignition.

This will end at 10 minutes 16 seconds into the flight. At this time begins a coast phase that ends 20 minutes 58 seconds after launch with the second ignition of the third stage. This ends three minutes later, starting then a 20 seconds velocity adjustment phase. Separation of the cargo usually takes place 25 minutes 38 seconds after launch.

The Xichang Satellite Launch Centre is situated in the Sichuan Province, south-western China and is the country’s launch site for geosynchronous orbital launches.

Xichang Satellite Launch Center.

Equipped with two launch pads (LC2 and LC3), the center has a dedicated railway and highway lead directly to the launch site.

The Command and Control Centre is located seven kilometers south-west of the launch pad, providing flight and safety control during launch rehearsal and launch.

Other facilities on the Xichang Satellite Launch Centre are the Launch Control Centre, propellant fuelling systems, communications systems for launch command, telephone and data communications for users, and support equipment for meteorological monitoring and forecasting.

The first launch from Xichang took place at 12:25UTC on January 29, 1984, when the Chang Zheng-3 (CZ3-1) was launched the Shiyan Weixing (14670 1984-008A) communications satellite into orbit.

Once again, due to the location of the launch site, locals had to dodge the expended stages. Dramatic photos of the booster impacting a local village are now online, although there are no reports of casualties.

A new satellite in the Ludikancha Weixing series should be riding into orbit at the end of February from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

The Ludikancha Weixing satellites are very high-resolution earth observation satellites. Operating in 500 km polar orbits, the satellites are possibly military in nature.

The next launch from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center should take place on March 15 with a Long March-3B/G2 orbiting the APStar-6C communications satellite.

Gigantische lavakoepel op Japanse zeebodem blijft maar groeien en dat baart onderzoekers grote zorgen

Wereldwijd zijn er meer dan 1.500 vulkanen actief. De Etna in Italië, de Eyjafjallajökul en andere onuitspreekbare vulkanen in IJsland, de Pinatubo in de Filipijnen en Mount Agung in Bali: het zijn slechts enkele voorbeelden. Die laatste is momenteel erg actief en veroorzaakte al massale evacuatie, maar het kan erger: als de supervulkaan bij de Osumi-eilanden in het zuidelijkste punt van Japan uitbarst, kunnen er miljoenen mensen sterven.

Uitbarsten zonder waarschuwing

De studie, uitgevoerd door onderzoekers van het Kobe Ocean-Bottom Exploration Center (KOBEC), bevestigde dat er zo’n 7.300 jaar geleden een gigantische lavakoepel ontstond na de uitbarsting van de Kikai-vulkaan. Maar ze ontdekten ook iets nieuws: de veranderingen in het oppervlak. Dat zou kunnen betekenen dat de vulkaan zich voorbereidt op een comeback.

De lavakoepel is momenteel ongeveer 10 kilometer breed en 600 meter lang, en zou zo’n 32 kubieke kilometer magma bevatten, en dat onder water. De wetenschappers geloven nu dat er een uitbarsting van de koepel zit aan te komen, zonder waarschuwing, en dat het een dodelijke ‘vulkanische winter’ zou kunnen veroorzaken.

‘Vulkanische winter’ en tsunami

Supervulkanen zijn anders dan bovengenoemde actieve stratovulkanen. Ze zijn zeldzamer, maar des te gevaarlijker. Als ze uitbarsten zijn de gevolgen vaak catastrofaal en vooral mondiaal. Als de enorme massa lava, die borrelt onder het oppervlak van de lavakoepel in Zuid-Japan, uit de oppervlakte barst, kan het de planeet voorgoed veranderen.

Een zogenaamde vulkanische winter is een fenomeen dat alleen supervulkanen kunnen veroorzaken. Hun as komt dan in de stratosfeer terecht, waardoor de zon wordt geblokkeerd. Dat zorgt dan weer voor een grote temperatuurdaling. In 1816 was een dergelijke uitbarsting van de vulkaan Tambora in Indonesië de aanleiding voor ‘het jaar zonder zomer’: in Amerika vroor het nog in juni, in Europa stierven toen naar schatting zo’n 200.000 mensen.

De superuitbarsting kan ook verwoestende tsunami’s veroorzaken die zuidelijk Japan en de kusten van Taiwan en China treffen, om dan zelfs de kust van Noord- en Zuid-Amerika te bereiken.

1% kans binnen 100 jaar

“Veel van deze supervulkanen herhalen hun superuitbarstingen, ook al is dat na miljoenen jaren”, klinkt het in het rapport. Het is niet de eerste studie van Kikai: sinds KOBEC in 2015 werd opgericht, heeft het al drie studiereizen uitgevoerd. De lavakoepel steeg al tot 600 meter boven de zeebodem en is nu nog maar ongeveer 30 meter van het oppervlak verwijderd. De ontdekte veranderingen op het oppervlak van de koepel, doen de onderzoekers geloven dat lava zich onder de koepel ophoopt en de massa stilaan stuwt.

Het team deed de observaties met onderwaterrobots, stalen en analyses van de gesteenten met behulp van onderwaterseismografieën en elektromagnetometers. De onderzoekers zijn van plan om terug te gaan. Dan gebruiken ze seismische reflectie en onderwaterrobots om het vormingsproces van de krater verder te onderzoeken.

10% bevolking leeft bij vulkaan

Japan zit bovenop vier verschillende tektonische platen, waardoor het een van de meest seismisch actieve regio’s van de aarde is. Waarom blijven daar dan zoveel mensen wonen? “Zo’n 10% van de bevolking leeft in vulkanisch gebied”, zegt vulkanoloog Sam Poppe aan onze krant. “De voordelen wegen vaak op tegen de nadelen. Zo is de vruchtbaarheid van de grond er erg goed, waardoor ze uitstekende landbouw kunnen verrichten. De gevaren die het met zich kan meebrengen, worden genegeerd of kennen ze gewoonweg niet.”

De kans dat die mensen een uitbarsting meemaken in hun leven, is dan ook klein. “Maar als er echt 1% kans is op een superuitbarsting binnen dit en 100 jaar, is dat geen kleine kans”, zegt hij verwijzend naar de huidige ontdekking in Japan. Mogelijk weten we in maart meer, wanneer het team verder op onderzoek gaat.
