The US government made a pact with Aliens for otherworldly technology

There are numerous Ufologists who claim that extraterrestrial beings have worked with our government for years. This theory, which has been seriously ridiculed by many, might actually be true since numerous scientists and governmental official have come forward suggesting that there is more to alien life on Earth than previously believed.

Philip Schneider was a man who is believed to have come forward with highly classified information. He was a geologist and structural engineer of the Government of the United States and was involved in the construction of deep underground military bases in the United States with the Army Corps of Engineers. He was one of three people to survive the 1979 fire fight between the large Greys and U.S. intelligence and military forces at Dulce underground base. At Dulce, Schneider maintained, “gray” humanoid extraterrestrials worked side by side with American technicians. In 1979, a misunderstanding arose. In the ensuing shootout, 66 Secret Service, FBI and Black Berets were killed along with an unspecified number of “grays”.

Philip Schneider’s father, Oscar Schneider was a medical advisor to the US Navy. During the last two years of his life, Phil Schneider gave over 30 lectures to a variety of audiences around the world talking about highly classified information of the government involving alien technology, alien weapons, experiments and pacts between governments worldwide and aliens.

Many people remained skeptical about what Schneider had brought forward and much of his life was seriously questioned by people worldwide. He was ridiculed by many, but there were many who believed that what Schneider was telling was the absolute truth, something that no one dared to talk about.

Mysteriously in 1996, Schneider was found dead in his apartment. Authorities said it was a suicide, but many people believe that Schneider was killed because he had leaked extremely classified information to the public.

In 1954, former President Dwight Eisenhower, made a pact with three species of aliens, Schneider said at a conference in 1995. n exchange for alien technology, Eisenhower allegedly gave permission for the aliens to abduct a limited number human beings to perform numerous experiments on Earth and in space.

Schneider said that many of the thousands people who have gone missing around the world, may have been taken by aliens. He said there are nine races of aliens who see the human race as “a bag of food.”

According to Schneider, the technology that aliens gave us as part of this exchange includes a type of metal that is almost indestructible. Schneider showed the audience what he said was a piece of this metal. It is made of niobium, an element that we have in the periodic table, and Marinite, a strange element which is not found on Earth.

But there were other technological utilities that aliens gave to humans thanks to the pacts. The government was able to develop a spy satellite with help of aliens that can detect a penny on the floor of your kitchen according to Schneider. This spy-satellite uses some sort of infrared technology with a resolution factor of 99.99961.

But this pact was broken by the aliens since they have abducted way more aliens than agreed. According to Schneider, since the pact was broken there have been tensions among alien races and humans.

The debate over who arrived in the New World first is a contentious one. Their identities aside, nobody can quite decide how those first Americans traveled or how they dispersed once they arrived. But now, a new study published in Cell, illuminating the genetic history of some of those early travelers, reveals a unifying thread.

An international team of scientists announced Thursday that the majority of people in Central and South America can be linked to a single ancestral lineage of humans who journeyed across the Bering Strait at least 15,000 years ago. After their journey southward into the new world, this source population broke into at least three branches, which diversified and spread, some of them back toward the north.

Two of those branches are new to science. One is unexpectedly connected to the Clovis people — who were thought to be the first Americans until the early 2000s— whereas the other links ancient North Americans to people who lived in Southern Peru and Northern Chile at least 4,200 years ago.

“These [findings] are fascinating as they open new gateways into archeological and genetic research,” explains co-author and Harvard Ph.D. candidate Nathan Nakatuska to Inverse. “It was previously not known that the Clovis culture extended into South America, and it is incredible that these people were able to migrate all the way through North, Central, and South America. In addition, the new migration into the Southern Andes was not previously known, and we are unsure what historical events led to this.”

Nakatuska and his colleagues analyzed DNA from 49 ancient individuals who once lived in what is now Belize, Brazil, the Central Andes, and the southernmost parts of Chile and Argentina and died between 10,900 and 8,600 ago. The team worked with government agencies and indigenous people to identify the samples, extract powder from skeletal material, and extract the DNA necessary to created double-stranded DNA libraries.

The use of DNA is one of the most novel aspects of this research. When studying migration of ancient peoples, other scientists often have to rely on other factors, such as old footprints or lice.

This broad dataset allowed the team to link genetic exchanges between people in North and South America and confirm the common origin of North, Central, and South Americans. The analysis made it clear that the original “source” population, fresh off the Bering Strait, diversified before they spread into South America.

What surprised the study authors most was the genetic connection they found between the Clovis culture and South America. About 13,000 years ago, the Clovis were distributed across North America. Though they were long thought to be the first Americans, findings of even older remains stripped them of that title. In the new paper, the team links DNA from a Clovis boy who lived in Montana about 12,800 years ago to some of the data set’s oldest individuals, who lived much farther south, in modern-day Belize, Chile, and Brazil.

“This [previously unknown gene flow event] suggests that, surprisingly, the genetic ancestry of people who produced the Clovis culture expanded further south,” explains first author and Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History researcher Cosimo Posth, Ph.D. to Inverse. “However, this ancestry was replaced at least by 9,000 years ago from another lineage, which left a long lasting population continuity until today, in multiple South American regions.”

The second previously unknown population links ancient individuals who lived on California’s Channel Islands to individuals who lived at least 4,200 years ago in Southern Peru and Northern Chile. Posth notes that “this might be linked to a population expansion in the region seen in the archeological record around that time.”

Nakatuska hopes the team’s research will stimulate further investigation into these genetic bonds and emphasizes the need for researchers to respectfully work with indigenous people. While strides have been made in the past two decades, archeology has a history of cultural imperialism.

“We hope the findings will facilitate greater collaboration and engagement with indigenous communities where the communities are deeply engaged and provide their insights to help drive the science and complement the studies with their own indigenous epistemologies,” Nakatuska says.

“We must ensure that our studies benefit indigenous people, particularly those currently living in the areas near the ancient individuals from our studies.”

Study Summary from Authors:

We report genome-wide ancient DNA from 49 individuals forming four parallel time transects in Belize, Brazil, the Central Andes, and the Southern Cone, each dating to at least ∼9,000 years ago. The common ancestral population radiated rapidly from just one of the two early branches that contributed to Native Americans today. We document two previously unappreciated streams of gene flow between North and South America. One affected the Central Andes by ∼4,200 years ago, while the other explains an affinity between the oldest North American genome associated with the Clovis culture and the oldest Central and South Americans from Chile, Brazil, and Belize. However, this was not the primary source for later South Americans, as the other ancient individuals derive from lineages without specific affinity to the Clovis-associated genome, suggesting a population replacement that began at least 9,000 years ago and was followed by substantial population continuity in multiple regions.

For a long time, it wasn’t known if organic compounds – compounds containing carbon – existed on Mars. They are ubiquitous within living things on Earth, but – due to its thinner atmosphere – these compounds would be destroyed on Mars’ surface by strong incoming ultraviolet radiation. Still, scientists have thought that there should be some organics on Mars – hidden within rocks or perhaps just under the surface – even if just very simple ones from the meteorites that strike Mars regularly. Various landers and rovers found hints of organics, but nothing too substantial. Then, earlier in 2018, the Curiosity rover finally hit pay dirt, finding evidence for abundant organics in the ancient mudstone rocks in Gale Crater, which used to be a Martian lake billions of years ago. These carbon molecules ranged from simple to fairly complex, but their actual origin was still unknown. They could be created by abiotic processes (without life). Or they could be the molecular remains of once-living organisms.

• The 2019 lunar calendars are here! Order yours before they’re gone. Makes a great gift.

Now, a new study by scientists at the Carnegie Institution for Science has shown one possible way that these or similar organics might have been created on Mars. The new peer-reviewed paper – by Andrew Steele and his colleagues – has been published in Science Advances.

The researchers studied organics found in three Martian meteorites – Tissint, Nakhla, and NWA 1950 – and compared them to the organics discovered by Curiosity. They found that both sets of organic carbon were quite similar, suggesting a possible similar origin. From the paper:

Here, we show that Martian meteorites Tissint, Nakhla, and NWA 1950 have an inventory of organic carbon species associated with fluid-mineral reactions that are remarkably consistent with those detected by the Mars Science Laboratory mission[with its Curiosity rover]

Earlier this year, NASA’s Curiosity rover found organic carbon compounds in ancient mudstones, similar to ones previously discovered in Martian meteorites.

Previously, in 2012, Steele led another team that determined the organics found in 10 different Martian meteorites was indigenous to Mars, not contamination from Earth, but also was not biological in origin. But if those carbon deposits were not biological, then how did they form? According to Steele:

Revealing the processes by which organic carbon compounds form on Mars has been a matter of tremendous interest for understanding its potential for habitability.

Basically, according to the paper, Mars’ organics may have originated from a series of electrochemical reactionsbetween briny liquids and volcanic minerals – in other words, natural “batteries.”

So what about the organics found by Curiosity? Steele and his team looked closer at the organics in the meteorites – using advanced microscopy and spectroscopy – and found that they were likely created by electrochemical corrosion of minerals in Martian rocks by a surrounding salty liquid brine. As Steele noted:

The discovery that natural systems can essentially form a small corrosion-powered battery that drives electrochemical reactions between minerals and surrounding liquid has major implications for the astrobiology field.

A high-resolution transmission electron micrograph (scale 50nm), from a transmission electron microscope, of a grain from the Martian meteorite Nakhla. The organic carbon layers are found between the intact “tines.” This texture is created when the volcanic minerals of the Martian rock interact with a salty brine and become the anode and cathode of a naturally occurring battery in a corrosion reaction. This reaction would then have enough energy – under certain conditions – to synthesize organic carbon.

Does this prove the Curiosity organics were created in the same way? No, but it is a viable answer. Curiosity itself is somewhat limited in being able to determine whether any organics are biological in origin or not. The upcoming 2020 rover will be able to do that, NASA has said.

The team further postulates that similar processes could also occur on Jupiter’s moon Europa, Saturn’s moon Enceladus and other bodies in our solar system – anywhere that igneous rocks are surrounded by salty brines. This could also have a bearing on their potential habitability as well.

Bottom line: The origin of organics on Mars is still unknown, but this new study from the Carnegie Institution for Science may hold some important clues for how at least some of them were created.

What landed here – a UFO or a meteorite? This 40 meter high geological formation was never thoroughly investigated until the 2000s but Russian scientists seem to have found an explanation.

A gloomy dark mount towers over the bright green landscape of the dense Russian taiga. Looking like a giant speaker – 40 meters high and 100 meters wide – it’s an unexpected site to see in a remote area in the north of Irkutsk region, some 210 km north of the town of Bodaibo.

Until 1949 only a few locals knew about it. They call it the “Fire Eagle’s Nest” and used to think of it as a bad place that even animals avoided. Some who visit this place die a strange death and household animals vanish without a trace. What’s the mystery behind this crater and is there a rational explanation for the all the mysterious activity?

How it was discovered

The scientist who first chanced upon this unique formation was Russian geologist Vadim Kolpakov. In 1949 he came here to conduct research and couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the crater.

“I thought I was mad,” he recalled. “From a distance it reminded me of a giant pit mine and I even wondered if people were there. Why would they be? This is a dense area of the taiga. Plus there were no NKVD labor camps around here – I knew it for sure. Secondly, I thought that it might be an archeological artefact, but the local Evenk and Yakut people were not ancient Egyptians. They can’t built rock pyramids.”

A closer examination showed that the crater was a large mound made of shattered limestone blocks with a diameter of around 160 meters, with an estimated weight of about one million tons. The crater was coined “Patom” (the name of a nearby river), but wasn’t examined thoroughly until the 2000s due to a lack of funding.

Theories

The mystery of “Fire Eagle’s Nest” has fueled various theories, from an alien ship landing to an underground nuclear reaction. Some, including Kolpakov himself, supported the idea that the crater was formed by a meteorite falling on the Patom Highland – people thought it might be a fragment of the Tunguska meteorite that fell in the Siberian taiga in 1908. Others suggested that the crater is a volcanic structure that formed due to gas steam jets from a significant depth along fault zones.

The first complex scientific expedition that visited the site in 2005 didn’t get any answers. The head of the expedition died of a heart attack – a tragedy that some believed was a bad omen.

Still, the scientists continued to examine the area. Subsequent expeditions in the years that followed (2006, 2008, 2010) were more successful. Gathered material from the site showed that the crater formed around 500 years ago (way earlier than the Tunguska meteorite) and that it has a zoned ring structure with individual zones formed at different times.

The scientists eventually discarded the meteoritic theory and cryogenic formation hypothesis (suggesting that the cone formed by the freezing of aquifer sequence) and came to the conclusion that the Patom Crater formed by a phreatic (steam) explosion, that happened either during magma emplacement into hydrous rocks or due to the faulting and decompression of heated hydrous rocks.

Despite this, some prefer to believe in more exciting, farfetched explanations like a tiny fragment of a neutron star falling to Earth – so massive that it punched straight through the Earth and out the other side, through the Patom Crater. It’s not completely unrealistic – two similar events happened in 1993 in different parts of the planet, both within a month of each other.

There’s still no explanation for strange events reportedly happening in the crater’s vicinity. Apart from the magnetic anomaly that was detected during one of the first expeditions there is no confirmed evidence that something big is buried in the center of the crater.

Whichever theory one chooses to believe, the crater will most likely remain one of the most mysterious places in Siberia.

If some good evidence for life after death were announced, I’d be eager to examine it; but it would have to be real scientific data, not mere anecdote. As with the face on Mars and alien abductions, better the hard truth, I say, than the comforting fantasy.

Carl Sagan

There are people who claim that the extraterrestrials abducted them. Brace yourself to get familiar with these true stories because they are sure to give you jitters down your spine. The claims of the real life alien abductions may be true or may not be, but they will definitely petrify you of the UFOs. Here we begin with the alleged true stories of alien abductions.

1 – Abduction of Clayton & Donna Lee

The heart wrenching story of Clayton and Donna Lee claims that the aliens stole a foetus from Donna. Clayton claims that the aliens abducted him in his childhood, while he was visiting a park. Donna says that she remembers floating around the stars and darkness.

Donna claimed in one of the media outlets that she saw the aliens and they took her to a far off place in a vehicle, full of metal. The couple say that they remain petrified all the time, fearing these kind of abductions.

2 – Alien Abduction of Amy

Amy, a 22 year old girl alleges that the aliens abducted her right out of the window of her lounge room. She was with her friend Petra, who claims to witness a bright light post which, a spaceship sort of a thing lifted Amy up. Strangely, the police found Amy miles away from her house, with some weird marks on her inner thighs.

3 – Abduction of the Russian Millionaire and Politician

Believe it or not, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov claims that from his window, a spaceship kidnapped him and took him to some star. He says that he has seen and talked to the aliens. According to him, the aliens are people like us.

4 – Robert Taylor Incident

This incident does not involve alien abductions but it does involve alien encounter. According to Robert Taylor, a forestry worker in Livingston, a spaceship tried to pull him into it. He says, he fell unconscious after an alien encounter and upon gaining consciousness, he was completely out of energy and lost his voice. His dog went hysteric to an extent that it was difficult for him to control it.

5 – Travis Walton’s Abduction Story

Travis Walton, a forestry worker in Arizona, states that three men with bald head and huge eyes, interrogated him after kidnapping him. He, along with his six friends, was heading home after work one night, when they saw a blinding streak of light. Thinking it to be a plane crash, they went to the spot, but it was allegedly a spaceship.

Apparently Walton went closer to the ship, and got abducted by the aliens. His friends claim to witness Walton floating up in the ship. But, on reporting this incident to the police, they did not believe these forestry workers. Even after some gruelling rounds of interrogation, their statements did not change.

6 – Abduction from Manhattan Apartment

Linda Napolitano (Originally Linda Cortile), a Manhattan resident, describes an unbelievable episode of alien abduction. She alleges that the aliens took her from her window, inside their spaceship where she witnessed benches, tables and sliding doors. Strangely, her story supports the claims made by two bodyguards of the United Nations.

7 – Bizarre Visitation of Real Life Men in Black

Robert Richardson supposedly had an encounter with two men who instantly vanished the moment he wanted to inspect them. What the men let behind was a piece of metal, which Richardson took home with him. He alleges that after three days, the men suddenly reappeared at his house to ask for the metal, which Richardson had sent to the lab for analysis. After asking them to leave, he never saw them again.

8 – Betty and Barney Hill Abduction

Betty and Barney claim that they witnessed a UFO while driving back to home from a vacation. Barney alleges that he saw people inside the spaceship with the help of his binoculars. They allege of alien encounters in their dreams.  Their claims are that the aliens examined their bodies and tried to wipe their minds completely.

How did life begin? The biggest question mankind has asked itself.  Where did we come from? The idea that gods from the heavens had provided the seed of life has been supported by many researchers. End of the day we may have been looking into the correct direction: a breakthrough study claims that the so-called building blocks of life, the elements that are the backbone of organic molecules which form living matter, came to Earth from outer space.

Evidence of seeding

According to a team of researchers from the University of Hawaii at Manoa and their colleagues from France and Taiwan, phosphates and diphosphoric acid, two major chemicals that form chromosomes carrying our genetic information, were generated billions of kilometers away from our planet and were delivered to Earth by space wanderers such as asteroids or comets.

The scientists used a vacuum chamber cooled down to near absolute zero to simulate interstellar icy grains coated with carbon dioxide, water, and phosphine.

When exposed to radiation, these grains created both phosphates and diphosphoric acid. “On Earth, phosphine is lethal to living beings,” said Andrew Turner of the University of Hawaii.

“But in the interstellar medium, an exotic phosphine chemistry can promote rare chemical reaction pathways to initiate the formation of biorelevant molecules such as oxoacids of phosphorus, which eventually might spark the molecular evolution of life as we know it.”

Scientists suggested that these phosphorus oxoacids could be traced back to an interstellar medium, the materials that fill the space between stars, which are delivered to Earth by comets or meteorites.

Humans are not from Earth?

Panspermia is a mechanism that allows biology to spread through space without needing a spaceship. Living matter “hitches a ride on sunlight or inside rocks.” Some scientists believe that Mars was indeed inhabited at one time. Some space rocks were “kicked” off the planet and landed in a “suitably welcoming patch” on Earth. Biological material from Mars that was in the rocks may spur exploration into the search for the solution to the age-old question: Where do we come from and why are we here? There are several theories that relate to extraterrestrials.

There are suggestions that aliens escape from an unknown planet and come here due to dire circumstances on their home planets and most likely we are descendants of this race.  Environmentalist and ecologist turned author Dr. Ellis Silver believes we may have come from Alpha Centauri. The planet may have suffered some type of cataclysmic event from which a few residents were able to escape and come to Earth.

Other scientists believe that, eons ago, Humanoids inhabited Mars but a war destroyed the livability of the planet. This could have been due to the equivalent of two hydrogen bombs exploding on Mars 300,000 to 1 million years ago. Is it possible some living beings were able to escape to Earth before the destruction?

There are many mysteries and controversial theories for which there seems to be more questions than answers.

Newscasters, cable news show anchors and news readers are finding their jobs in precarious positions for a number of reasons, but those in Western countries have no threat to their employment quite s big as the one facing their counterparts in China, where media providers are testing virtual newsreaders created by combining images and voices of humans with artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Mr. President! Mr. President! Robbie Gort here from AI 2001 News. What’s your stance on robot rights?

“AI anchors have officially become members of the Xinhua News Agency reporting team. They will work with other anchors to bring you authoritative, timely and accurate news information in both Chinese and English.”

Xinhua News Agency is the official state-run news provider of the People’s Republic of China. It’s the largest media organization in China and the largest news agency in the world in number of correspondents (10,000) worldwide. That last figure, according to South China Morning Post, is why the organization is turning to AI.

“Celebrity anchors are regarded as important assets at major news networks in the US. The highest paid news anchor, CNN’s Anderson Cooper, is reportedly paid US$100 million a year, while Diane Sawyer at ABC and Sean Hannity at Fox News earn US$80 million each. Celebrity anchors in China are generally paid a lot less because they work for state-run TV stations but they often earn extra money from product endorsements and book sales.”

Let’s take a look at the weather map

Not only do Xinhua’s lifelike AI anchors work cheap, they never need bathroom breaks, lunch hours, sleep, vacations, huge paychecks or ego-stroking. As long as human editors keep feeding them news items (and those people could be eliminated soon as many news agencies are testing automated news aggregators and story writers), the AI anchors will keep staring into the camera and talking — 24 hours a day, seven days a week … or at least until viewers get tired of staring at the same face, which may not be a problem (or at least one that anyone will feel safe complaining about) since Xinhua is the state news agency. (See a video of the first AI anchor here.)

The AI news anchors were announced at the recent World Internet Conference in Wuzhen and developed by Sogou, China’s second-largest search engine operator. It has proprietary technology in natural language processing – a branch of AI dealing with how computers understand and interpret human language – so it is undoubtedly working on improvements to give the AI newsreaders more realistic-looking speech, lip movements and facial expressions.

Who is in control?

What about questioning authorities or telling the truth? There has been ongoing controversy in the U.S. over local TV news staffs being forced to read copy written by the station’s owners and management without question and without changing any words. Artificial intelligence hasn’t reached the point yet where an AI anchor can get disgusted and walk off the set while yelling, “I’m mad as Hell and I’m not going to take this anymore!”

Can it? Should it? Will other media providers see this as something to fight or a means to greater profits?

What do you think … while you can still think for yourself? Anderson?

In a recent article here at Mysterious Universe I described how, on occasion, people in the UFO research field have fallen victim to paranoia. And, on some occasions, to an almost life-crippling degree. In many cases, the paranoia was provoked by wholly down to earth issues that were misinterpreted and blown out of proportion. A perfect example of one such case: back in the 1990s, I had a friend, Wayne, who lived in a little village in the north of England; a friend who was deeply involved in the UFO subject. Wayne told me that on three occasions across a period of several weeks, an old, black-colored Jaguar car was parked directly opposite his house, on the other side of the road. He was seriously concerned it was the Men in Black, carefully watching him. It was not.

After confronting his neighbor (in a fashion which didn’t really help the situation at all), Wayne was told that the car belonged to his daughter’s boyfriend. The boyfriend, it turned out, was someone who restored old, classic cars and then sold them for a good price. The car was a 1950s-era Jaguar, which soon went up for sale. Mystery solved. In fact, there was no mystery at all: just a mind overwhelmed by MIB-driven paranoia. Sometimes, though, it’s very easy to see why paranoia might occasionally surface and for legitimate reasons.  I’ll share several examples with you.

Greg Bishop is a good friend and the author of a number of excellent books, including Project Beta (on the weird and even sinister UFO-themed saga of Paul Bennewitz and his, Bennewitz’s, descent into a state of overwhelming paranoia), and It Defies Language! The latter is a book that contains dozens of Greg’s articles on UFOs. Greg has a strange story to tell that is relevant to the subject of this article. He says: “Mail tampering is the darling of clinical paranoids, but nearly every piece of mail that the late researcher/abductee Karla Turnersent to [my] PO Box looked like it had been tampered with or opened. Since this is easy to do without having to be obvious, we figured someone was interested in her work enough to make it clear that she was being monitored. She took to putting a piece of transparent tape over the flap and writing ‘sealed by sender’ on it. Karla pretty much took it for granted after awhile, and suggested I do likewise.” Moving on…

Lisa Hagan has been my literary agent for around a decade-and-a-half. Some time ago, Lisa shared with me several strange experiences she had and which gave her reason to be concerned. Lisa said that on several occasions, late at night, she heard the trunk of her vehicle open. She explained the situation: “It’s very dark where I live and there are only a few people here. It’s very heavily wooded and there’s a lot of farmland. And it’s all dirt road, so there’s not a lot of traffic. So far, it has happened to me at least three or four times. My house is a long bungalow, and my bedroom is on the end, near the car-port. And, periodically, I’ll be lying there reading, with the light on. It’s always been between 10:00 and 11:00 at night, and I’ll hear my vehicle trunk open. Then I hear it close. I do have a picture of a hand-print, in the dust on my trunk that I took after it happened one night. I kept the picture in case I wanted to do anything with it, which I did not. If I had wanted to I could have crept up in my pajamas and intervened, but what would I do? It made me mad, though. Nothing was ever taken from the trunk. But, I did check if anything had been put in there. Those bugs are small though, so who knows?”

Lisa also had a run-in with what John Keel termed “phantom photographers.” Over to Lisa: “It was a Sunday and I was in the kitchen making something, standing at my kitchen sink. And, I saw a flash to the left. In my yard. I looked over and there was a little white Honda. An Accord, I think; two people. There was a guy taking pictures of the side of my house. And then they drove right in front of the house and took a picture – right where I was standing in front of the kitchen window. They were only about two car-lengths from the window. They went down passed my house and then came back. And then they drove off. That made me nervous and my anxiety went up. My intuition, my alarm bells, went off.”

Finally, from Lisa: “The other story is that my aunt and I had seen a UFO on our farm. This was Christmas night, 2015. And, on the 26^th she left. I called and asked friends if they wanted to come over, to look for UFOs. They were like, ‘No, we’re already in bed.’ But, another friend wanted to come over and see if we might see anything. We were standing by the trunk of my vehicle – the trunk someone had been in and out of – as we had the iPads and the binoculars resting on it. It was a beautiful night and we were talking and looking around. As my friend left, he said that when he was maybe ten cars away from me, around a row of trees here, there was a black, unmarked SUV with a lot of antenna on it. Not long after that, the same friend was driving on our main road – the road that everyone lives off – and there were two of those SUVs, with men outside them with binoculars, overlooking our farm.”

Sometimes UFO footage makes me want to grab the aliens by their tiny shoulders and yell at their dumb faces like a disappointed little league coach “Be cooler!”  All the footage that ever really seems unidentified is also always the most boring. Both in the filming itself, and the thing that’s being filmed. But that’s to be expected and it’s why those are usually the most convincingly bizarre.

UFO’s aren’t going to look like floating neon sci-fi disco balls. They don’t care about aerodynamics, they’re not going to be sleek. They don’t have the same imaginative sense style and intimidation that we do, they’re not going to be “cool” in the classical sense. UFOs probably look like weird potatoes. But that doesn’t mean they won’t be worth filming. If you do spot a weird potato in the sky, you’re not going to get your DSLR and $1,200 telephoto lens. You’re not going to set up a gimbal and frame the shot perfectly. You’re just going to hit record and get what you get. It’s going to be messy and shaky and generally unpleasant to watch.

This looks cool, because a human made it.

And here we have a video that’s a perfect example of both those things. This footage—which you can watch here—was uploaded by MUFON to their YouTube channel, so it comes from as decent a source as you can reasonably hope for. At the very least, someone who’s watched a lot of these things saw it first and decided it was worth uploading. The footage was reportedly taken in Perthshire, Scotland. Here’s a snippet ofthe description the witness sent to MUFON along with the footage (edited for clarity and the reader’s well-being):

I would describe the object as puck shaped, a disc with an edge. I was viewing it moving from my left to right. It does appear cigar shaped as it moves horizontally. There were clouds above it and below it. It approached some lower level clouds then banked. As it did this, you could clearly see it was circular when viewed from underneath.

You say puck-shaped, I say potato. Despite the horrendous shaky-cam situation going on when they zoom in (kudos for at least trying, though) you can see that the object is moving and seems to be swooping over the clouds. It certainly looks like the classic UFOs that became known as “flying saucers.” It’s not the moon, and it’s not a bird. You show me a potato bird and I’ll show you an abomination.

Flying saucers are the rally cars of space.

It could be a drone. But I’m starting to suspect that the more times you say the phrase “it could be a drone” the easier it will be to dismiss all UFO footage. After all, they didn’t have drones when these things first started showing up in the skies. That’s the modern version of the weather balloon dismissal. You never want to fall into those traps, in any part of your life. The easy way out is never worth it.

Still. It could be a drone.

‘End of the Megafauna’ examines why so many giant Ice Age animals went extinct

New book's colorful illustrations also offer perspective of just how large these creatures were

BY ERIN WAYMAN 

VANISHING ACT  A relative of the Komodo dragon, this goanna, shown attacking a wallaby, lived in Australia 50,000 years ago. What happened to this and other extinct giant animals is the subject of a new book.

End of the Megafauna

Ross D.E. MacPhee and Peter Schouten

(illustrator)W.W. Norton

& Co., $35

Today’s land animals are a bunch of runts compared with creatures from the not-too-distant past. Beasts as big as elephants, gorillas and bears were once much more common around the world. Then, seemingly suddenly, hundreds of big species, including the woolly mammoth, the giant ground sloth and a lizard weighing as much as half a ton, disappeared. In End of the Megafauna, paleomammalogist Ross MacPhee makes one thing clear: The science on what caused the extinctions of these megafauna — animals larger than 44 kilograms, or about 100 pounds — is far from settled.

MacPhee dissects the evidence behind two main ideas: that as humans moved into new parts of the world over the last 50,000 years, people hunted the critters into oblivion, or that changes in climate left the animals too vulnerable to survive. As MacPhee shows, neither scenario matches all of the available data.

Throughout, Peter Schouten’s illustrations, reminiscent of paintings that enliven natural history museums, bring the behemoths back to life. At times, MacPhee slips in too many technical terms. But overall, he offers readers an informative, up-to-date overview of a fascinating period in Earth’s history.

Enraged Scientists Hit Back at 'Outlandish' Harvard Claims 'Oumuamua is Alien Spacecraft'

{ https://www.disclose.tv/ }

Scientists have detected long-lost continents hidden under Antarctica’s ice sheets

Dead satellite reveals lost continents.

Recent scientific discoveries have revealed continents from long ago hidden beneath Antarctica’s ice sheets using data from a satellite that has been inoperative for about five years.

This new research reveals a better understanding of the geological history of Antarctica over the last 200 million years. The data reveals that roughly 180 million years ago the main landmasses of Antarctica, India, and Australia separated from Gondwana. This separation resulted in a slow shift to their current locations.

The satellite used concerning these discoveries is known as the Gravity Field and Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE). GOCE was a European Space Agency (ESA) satellite that was in orbit from 2009 to 2013. During the four years of operation, GOCE mapped the gravity field on Earth with unmatched accuracy before being purposefully destroyed when re-entering the atmosphere. Since its destruction, scientists have studied the data of GOCE and have used it to create maps of the lithosphere of the Earth. The lithosphere is the tectonically active layer that contains the crust and outer mantle of the Earth.

These maps are used to sketch long-lost masses of land trapped within drifting continental plates known as cratons. Cratons have typically been hard to examine in the lithospheric structure of Antarctica because of the isolated location and huge ice sheets that obscure the underlying geology of Antarctica. The observations GOCE has provided has solved this problem significantly.

'Alien Autopsy' Video Faker Finally Reveals The Truth

In 1995, a video showing the gruesome autopsy of an alien by ‘government pathologists’ in protective suits shocked the world. Now the film-maker behind it revealed how the ‘Alien Autopsy’ film fooled the world (and inspired a ‘classic’ film starring Ant and Dec).

Spyros Melaris says that the film claiming to show an alien body being examined in 1947 actually shows a foam body filled with cow and lamb organs from a local butcher.

Roswell UFO video faker finally reveals how he did it.

According to news outlet Metro Melaris told The Sun that he considered using raspberry jelly for the ‘brain’ but rejected it as ‘too dark’ as he filmed in a north London flat in 1995.

He spliced his film footage onto a 1947 Pathe newsreel to fool experts at Kodak – and a documentary on the film aired three times on Fox, being viewed by 11.7 million people.

The effort was privatized by Channel 4 by bringing in a company with "deep pockets" that could give the broadcaster a "stronger future", the Culture Secretary John Whittingdale has said.

Melaris sourced 1940s surgeons’ outfits and medical instruments from prop providers in the UK and USA and The ‘government pathologists’ filmed dissecting the pale, potbellied corpse of the extraterrestrial being.

Merlaris said, ‘Our whole film was made up but we hung it on little elements of truth because something crashed in Roswell and we pinned the film on this being a body that could have been picked up in that crash.’

UFO news: ‘Alien Borg Cube’ caught on NASA camera near the Sun – SHOCK CLAIM

A GIANT Star Trek-like alien spacecraft was seen hovering around the burning corona of the Sun, according to prominent UFO hunter Scott Waring.

The UFO hunter likened the supposed alien spacecraft to a Borg Cube from the Science Fiction franchise Star Trek. Mr Waring, who runs the UFO investigation website UFOSightingsDaily.com, came across the alien cube in a photo snapped by NASA’s Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft. He said: “The cube as you see, has something coming out of it – there is an opening.

“It looks like there is a dark opening and there is some whitish material around it.

“There is more white material here and this white object has a little trail coming out in this direction like it was coming out of this doorway.

“So it does look like the cube opened up the doorway and something came out.

“That’s my best guess right there on that.”

Mr Waring’s photos appear to show a large pixelated square mass near the burning star at the centre of the solar system.

A number of smaller objects are trailing away from the larger cube which the conspiracist thinks could be smaller vessels or spacecraft.

There also appears to be a wide opening in the cube’s side – a bay door or portal of some sorts.

The UFO hunter drew comparisons between the cube and the Borg spacecraft due to their uncanny resemblance.

The alien cube found by Mr Waring appears to follow a similar principle.

Mr Waring said: “That looks like a Borg Cube, doesn’t it? I mean it really looks like one of those Star Trek Borg Cubes.

“That’s really crazy cool, super, super, super strange. “

Some of the people who saw Mr Waring’s latest finding were amazed by the concept of a spacecraft this bizarre barrelling through space.

Samuel Figueroa commented on YouTube: “Wow, amazing cube spaceship, and the little ones coming out of it. Wow, super awesome thanks.”

And YouTuber Liz M said: “Thank you for bringing us an honest opinion and showing us exactly what is there.”

There were, however, some YouTubers who questioned the validity of the photographs.

Some people suggested the alien cube was simply a digital glitch in the NASA photo and others even more bizarrely suggested the space agency was attempting to hide something from sight.

NASA’s SOHO spacecraft is a real-time observation platform, designed to capture snapshots of the Sun for more accurate space weather predictions.

Life on Mars: ‘ANCIENT city’ on Red Planet is ‘100 percent proof’ of aliens

MARS may be home to an ancient civilisation if photos from a prominent UFO hunter supposedly showing ruins on the Red Planet are proven to be true.

By SEAN MARTIN

Conspiracy theorists have been on the hunt to prove NASA has been lying to the public about life on Mars. Now, one may have revealed some evidence which seemingly shows an ancient structure on the Red Planet. The image, taken by NASA satellites hovering over Mars, appears to depict ancient structures and even stone carvings.

Prominent alien hunter Scott C Waring says this is “100 percent” proof that life does, or did, exist on the Red Planet.

He wrote on his blog, UFO Sightings Daily: “I found a lot of ancient structures in a Mars photo today. These structures are long and almost resemble walls, but are buildings in long lines.

“I also discovered a face carved into a hill top, but is so ancient, it may be hard for some to see its details.

“This is 100 percent proof that ancient civilisations once flourished on the surface of Mars, and that NASA doesn't want you to know about it.”

Sceptics and NASA would say the ‘city’ and other similar findings are just the effects of pareidolia – a psychological phenomenon when the brain tricks the eyes into seeing familiar objects or shapes in patterns or textures such as a rock surface.

This is not the first time that ‘evidence’ of aliens on Mars has been discovered.

Earlier this year, an "alien face" was found in a NASA satellite image of Mars, according to more bonkers claims.

Mr Waring was convinced it could be a rock carving, done by a Martian race, in the same way ancient Britons carved out the chalk figures in hillsides like the giant of Cerene Abbas in Dorset and the Long Man of Wilmington in East Sussex.

However, NASA insisted the rock is just a meteorite impact crater that has been left in the unusual form by later erosion.

When NASA released the image under the "alien head" caption, it said: "The image shows an impact crater in Chryse Planitia, not too far from the Viking 1 lander site, that to seems to resemble a bug-eyed head.

"The two odd depressions at the north end of the crater (the ‘eyes’) may have formed by wind or water erosion.

"This region has been modified by both processes, with water action occurring in the distant past via floods that poured across western Chryse Planitia from Maja Valles, and wind action common occurrence in more recent history.”

• Editor’s note: A new study by scientists in the United States, China, France, and Germany estimates that the world’s oceans have absorbed much more excess heat from human-induced climate change than researchers had estimated up to now. This finding suggests that global warming may be even more advanced than previously thought. Atmospheric scientist Scott Denning explains how the new report arrived at this result and what it implies about the pace of climate change.

How do scientists measure ocean temperature and estimate how climate change is affecting it?

They use thermometers attached to thousands of bobbing robots floating at controlled depths throughout the oceans. This system of “Argo floats” was launched in the year 2000, and there are now about 4,000 of the floating instruments.

About once every 10 days, they cycle from the surface to a depth of 6,500 feet, then bob back up to the surface to transmit their data by satellite. Each year this network collects about 100,000 measurements of the three-dimensional temperature distribution of the oceans.

The Argo measurements show that about 93 percent of the global warming caused by burning carbon for fuel is felt as changes in ocean temperature, while only a very small amount of this warming occurs in the air.

How dramatically do the findings in this study differ from levels of ocean warming that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has reported?

The new study finds that since 1991, the oceans have warmed about 60 percent faster than the average rate of warming estimated by studies summarized by the IPCC, which are based on data from Argo floats. This is a big deal.

Most of the difference comes from the earliest part of this period, before there were enough Argo floats in the oceans to properly represent the three-dimensional distribution of global water temperatures. The new data are complete all the way back to 1991, but the Argo data were really sparse until the mid-2000s.

• See also: Early Global Warming Was Unexpectedly Caused by a Burst of Tiny Life Forms

The implication of faster ocean warming is that the effect of carbon dioxide on global warming is greater than we’d thought. We already knew that adding CO2 to the air was warming the world very rapidly. And the IPCC just warned in a special report that limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels — a target that would avert many extreme impacts on humans and ecosystems — would require quickly reducing and eventually eliminating coal, oil, and gas from the world energy supply. This study doesn’t change any of that, but it means we will need to eliminate fossil fuels even faster.

What did these researchers do differently to arrive at a higher number?

They have measured tiny changes since 1991 in the concentrations of a few gases in the air — oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide — with incredibly high precision. This is really hard to do, because the changes are extremely small compared to the large amounts already in the air.

Some of these gases from the air dissolve into the oceans. The water’s temperature dictates how much it can absorb. As water warms, the amount of a gas that can dissolve in it decreases — that’s why a soda or beer left open on the kitchen table goes flat. That same temperature dependence allowed the scientists to calculate total changes in global ocean heat content from 1991 to now, just using very precise measurements of the air itself.

If this study is accurate, what does it suggest we should expect in the way of major climate change impacts in the coming decades?

This study did not address climate impacts, but they are already well known. As the world warms, more water vapor evaporates from both oceans and land. This means that when big storms develop, there’s more water vapor in the air for them to “work with,” which will produce more extreme rain and snow and resulting winds.

Greater warming will mean increased water demand for crops and forests and pastures, more stress on irrigation and urban water supplies, and reduced food production. More water demand means more forest fires and smoke, shorter winters with less mountain snowpack, and increased stress on ecosystems, cities, and the world economy. Because of these effects, nearly every government in the world has committed to rapid emissions cuts to limit global warming.

What this study suggests is that the climate is more sensitive to greenhouse gases than we previously thought. This means that in order to avoid the worst consequences of climate change, emissions will need to be cut faster and deeper.

How will we know whether these findings hold up?

There are other groups making precise gas measurements, and many of them have data going back to the 1990s. Others will repeat the analyses made by these authors and check their results. There will also be careful work to reconcile the increased warming rate of the oceans with the Argo temperature data, the surface air temperature record, atmospheric data from balloons, and measurements made from satellites. The real world must be consistent with all of the observations taken together, not just a subset.

This study very cleverly used data from the composition of the air itself going back nearly 30 years. We didn’t have Argo floats back then, but air samples are still available that can be analyzed decades later. Using a longer record of warming is much better for estimating the rate, because it’s less sensitive to year-to-year variations than a shorter record.

These scientists have given us a new and independent way to assess the sensitivity of long-term global warming to changes in atmospheric CO2 levels. I expect the findings will indeed hold up, and that we will be hearing a lot more about this new method in the future.

Interview with George Knapp

The now defunct website UAPinfo wasn’t able to come to full fruition like many had hoped. Our biggest accomplishment, however, was this eye opening interview with the legend, George Knapp. Mr. Knapp graciously answered our questions in an honest, in depth and forthcoming manner. All members of UAPinfo, myself included, will forever be grateful that Mr. Knapp took the time out to share his views with us. – Danny Silva

Andreas Stahl: Without going into specific individual cases or details there seems to be a few individuals claiming they are whistleblowers from inside DOD ‘black projects’. Given the extreme claims in some of these cases, what do you believe should be put in place with regards to verification of sources, how therefore can Ufology be brought into the upcoming mainstream to that regard?

George Knapp: The only Latin phrase I know that comes close is…Caveat Emptor. Buyer beware. In a subject as crazy as this it is important to keep an open mind while maintaining a healthy degree of skepticism. Basically, it boils down to this–show me what you’ve got and is there supporting evidence? I can’t even guess how many times in the last 30 years that people have contacted me, claiming to be DOD insiders or whistle blowers who want to share info about UFOs, and for the most part, they turned out to be bullshitters, or people who wanted attention, some who seemed mentally unstable, and a few who–I suspect–wanted to find out what I knew, as opposed to telling me what they knew.

Legitimate DOD insiders/whistle blowers who have plausible or verifiable info about UFOs are pretty rare. There are a lot of people in the military establishment who know bits and pieces about UFOs because, as we know, the Pentagon has continued to collect information, incident reports, visual and other types of evidence, but there are very few who know the big picture stuff. The subject really is compartmentalized. Most DOD folks think it’s nonsense because that is what has been drilled into them for the last 60 years, and as we have learned in the last 9 months, even dramatic encounters involving large numbers of pilots and other personnel can and are kept secret, or at least do not end up being reported on network newscasts or on the front page of the New York Times. The ridicule factor is a huge part of that. The same is true at higher levels of DOD. No one wants to be the UFO general or UFO admiral of UFO guy on the Joint Chiefs. In the end, that means the number of insiders who really, truly know about the subject is pretty small.

I can say, with a degree of confidence, that much of what is known on a macro scale about UFOs is not within the confines of DOD. It is in private industry. My guess is that a small and informal network of like-minded people on the inside will occasionally exchange information on this subject with what might be a larger network on the outside, but, again, the number of people who know the big picture stuff is likely pretty low. We have all seen what has happened in recent times regarding objective truth, actual facts, a shared version of reality. They’ve been demolished. Facts are now flexible. A large segment of the population thinks that Alex Jones is a crusading truth-teller while the New York Times peddles fake news. That world of fact-free facts is a target-rich environment for anyone peddling wacky UFO tales and Deep State conspiracies. The more outrageous the claims, the more attention they seem to get from devotees of UFOlogy. It’s not a new development for ufology, because there have always been hucksters, but this current crop of pitchmen has taken things to a whole new level. Mars? Really? With Barack Obama? Or, say, are you one of the guys who personally shot and killed and gutted a few dozen extraterrestrials? Are you the guru who can attract alien spaceships anytime you want, just by using a flashlight? You asked how can ufology enter the mainstream? The UFO topic has already entered the mainstream. It happened this year. Ufology, however, is another matter.

There are no standards, no prerequisites, no governing authority, not even an agreement on what is included under that umbrella term. If someone says they study anthropology or microbiology, we have a pretty solid idea what they mean. But ufology is a different animal. It includes everyone from a nuts-and-bolts physicist like Stan Friedman to the media personality who thinks Queen Elizabeth is a Reptilian. I support and sympathize with MUFON, which has strived to make Ufology respectable or credible, but it is an uphill battle, and one that might be unwinnable. In a way, this is similar to what has happened to journalism. Social media and the rise of citizen journalism have been great in many respects, but owning a keyboard and computer does not make someone a journalist. The claims made by ufologists of UFO “journalists”, either online or in conference speeches or on TV shows, don’t undergo a rigorous editing process. There is no hard-nosed managing editor asking for the proof or verification that a DOD insider source actually exists, or that the writer really did hang out on Mars with young Mr. Obama. People type stuff up and let it fly from their computer or Twitter feed, with no editorial oversight or fact checking, and then they wait to see how many people will buy into it.

I realize that Tom Delonge is seen as a controversial figure in this arena. He has taken an amazing amount of shit from ufology in general, from assorted UFO poobahs, and from what seem to be millions of UFO authorities and experts who lurk on Twitter and Facebook, but…I can tell you from direct personal experience that he really DID develop a small and special network of insider sources. I know because Tom and I were in frequent contact as it was happening. He would call and share info about breakthroughs he had made, and it was understood I was not going to report the details. In many of those conversations, I offered some suggestions about “the pitch” he could make as he worked his way up the UFO food chain, and he would call me back to tell me how things went. It was an incredibly exciting time. Tom has always been interested in the subject but I think he did his first major interview on the topic with me on Coast to Coast, then, on his own initiative, he shifted into UFO overdrive. He took things to a much higher level. When he started to share little tidbits about having inside sources, the reaction from “serious ufologists” was pretty much universal–ah, bullshit, they said, no Pentagon insiders are going to spill UFO secrets to a rock star. But it was true. I watched it happen in real time, step by step, name by name. When Wikileaks published John Podesta’s emails, the world found out that Tom wasn’t exaggerating. Among the leaked emails were a few from Delonge in which he mentioned the names of the people he’d been speaking to about UFOs—major league, heavy hitter names. He was telling the truth. (One of those leaked emails was mine, by the way, and it was a very odd feeling at the time.)

The leak was initially viewed as a disaster because it spooked the people he had cultivated, but it confirmed he had been telling the truth, that Tom Delonge really did have insider DOD sources who were talking to him, as well as sources outside of DOD. Like it or not, he is the primary driving force for much of what has unfolded in the last 9 months. (There are others who do not work for or with TTSA who have helped as well.) With the high level contacts he developed, he was able to convince some pretty serious people to join him at TTSA. His organization gave Lue Elizondo a place to land when Lue left the Pentagon and AATIP. The now-famous videos were released. The Pentagon confirmed the program was real. The NY Times and countless other news organizations did serious, straightforward news stories about UFO research and the Pentagon’s interest. These are major developments. Tom did that, like it or not.

I am not in that loop anymore. I don’t know who might be helping him now, other than the team that has been identified publicly. I do not work for TTSA. As with everything else in “ufology”, it is a good idea to take new information with a grain of salt, so I would not necessarily endorse all of the stuff that Tom has been told. I think even he would admit that some of what he has been told might be a test of sorts, or a riddle. But he really did develop legitimate DOD insider sources, and together, they have turned the UFO subject on its head. Sometimes DOD sources turn out to be real. What the ultimate agenda might be is a whole different subject. One last point about DOD insiders–there is an entirely different cadre of people who have–or had–direct info about UFOs, but who are hostile to anything approaching disclosure. Their motives range from petty personal issues to religious beliefs to the fact that a few of them get a kick out of stirring the pot and watching what happens. UFO folks are always on the lookout for the dreaded disinformation plot. Well, it does happen. We can all cite examples. I am reasonably sure there are a couple of long-time influencers who are currently whispering in the ears of people in this field, people whose lives and stature have been upended by TTSA/AATIP/AAWSAP/BAASS/NIDS revelations. If you wonder why there is so much conflicting information and seemingly contradictory theories and scenarios, all coming from the same place, well….

Dregs: Can you speak on the Height 611 UFO crash? How did a fragment of the debris end up in the national atomic testing museum? The analysis of this debris sounds like Delonge’s metamaterials. Is there a connection? What became of the debris?

George Knapp: There is no connection between the meta-materials mentioned by TTSA and the material that was on display in the museum. In the early 90’s, I worked for Altamira Communications in Las Vegas, and the reason I took the job is that Altamira has its own TV studio, and the owner was willing to finance the ultimate UFO documentary project. I sketched out an initial series of 12 documentary films. We travelled all over the country to interview authorities and witnesses. A US Congressman introduced me to a Russian physicist who was in the US to lecture about nuclear arms issues. He had been the national security advisor to Russian president Yeltsin, to the Russian Parliament, and to their Academy of Sciences. We engaged him to seek out sources of UFO information, people who had never spoken publicly about the topic. He did. I made two trips to Russia…one in 93 and one in 96. We succeeded in obtaining hundreds of pages of Ministry of Defense documents regarding UFOs. Turns out the Russian military conducted the biggest UFO study ever. It lasted ten years, collected thousands of detailed cases, some of them very dramatic encounters. During that first trip, we met a Russian microbiologist who studied UFO landing site trace cases. He had found hundreds of very odd, very tiny glass-like spheres in the soil at places where witnesses had reported UFO landings. He referred to them as cosmic sperm. He generously agreed to share with me about half of the world’s known supply of cosmic sperm. I carried it out of Russia through multiple airport checkpoints along with very sensitive documents, a few of which were STILL classified.

When I returned to Moscow in 96, everything had changed. The sources who had been cooperative during the age of glasnost were scared to even be seen with me. I was traveling with a British TV crew who were re-tracing our steps from the 93 trip for a Discovery show, with one exception–this visit would include a side trip to Dalnegorsk, 11 time zones from Moscow, on the edge of the world. It was a rough journey. Dalnegorsk had been the site of an unusual crash. An object in the sky was seen by hundreds of witnesses before it crashed on Hill 611. The first scientist to climb the hill and collect samples was the main person we interviewed during the visit. He handed over several packets of material gathered from the crash site. He told me the debris from the object itself had very strange qualities, were the product of unknown engineering processes, and had been sent to various government and military labs for further analysis. (The scientists never had his samples returned.) The material I brought back was not the metal from the craft. it was rocks and soil and plants that had been burned when the object exploded.

When the Atomic Testing Museum wanted to open an Area 51-themed exhibit, I offered to loan them whatever I had. They were intrigued by the Russian samples and included the material in their exhibit, and it was a big hit for them. It generated a lot of media attention over a few years. (I supplied them with samples from Dalnegorsk as well as some of the tiny spheres.) In the meantime, the spheres I still possessed were subjected to rigorous testing in multiple labs. I am not able to share those specific results with you except to say the composition was really unusual and the reason they had been made at all remained a mystery. So far as I know, the spheres had no magical properties. Fast forward—the few spheres I still had at my home disappeared. I don’t know how or when it happened, but after holding onto the samples for close to 20 years, the spheres were gone. As a footnote, when the Atomic Museum decided to downsize its Area 51 exhibit, they returned the various objects and materials I had loaned them—except for the spheres.

They’re missing.

Danny Silva: What got you interested in the subject, originally?

George Knapp: There are some events in my family history that I do not remember. I don’t know if they were a subconscious influence or not, but as an adult, i had no interest in UFOs. That changed in 1987 when a pilot named John Lear walked into KLAS TV. Lear’s family was well known in Nevada (and around the world.) John had helped my bosses, Bob Stoldal and Ned Day, in breaking a huge story about the existence of a “stealth” aircraft being developed at a mysterious base called Area 51. Stoldal, my news director, had been collecting anything and everything that was reported about Area 51. It wasn’t much—a folder of maybe 25 pages. Lear’s improbable story about a plane that was invisible to radar turned out to be true (it was a plane called the F-117 Nighthawk) so he had some credibility with us. He walked into the newsroom and dropped a stack of UFO documents onto the desk of managing editor Ned Day. He told Ned that this would be the biggest story of his life, the UFO coverup. Ned wanted no part of it, told Lear that if the UFO thing was true, he–Ned–would already know about it. I was eavesdropping–as always–and as Lear started to leave, I asked if I could see his stack of documents. Over the next few days, I pawed through the material. Some of it was of unknown origin, but most of the pages had been released through FOIA, meaning they were legitimate government documents. At the time, I hosted and produced a 30-minute public affairs interview show called On the Record. The guests were mostly Nevada political figures or the occasional mobster. I asked Lear if he wanted to come on the show to talk about UFOs. He did. It changed my life, not because I believed everything Lear told me, but because of the paper trail–the internal reports and memos written to and for military insiders in which they acknowledged UFOs were real and of unknown origin.

The documents had been written before FOIA existed, so the DOD folks were candid in sharing their opinions in writing–unlike now. Anyway, after the Lear interview aired, my phone started ringing off the hook. People were calling to ask when that UFO interview would air again, or to tell me their UFO story. i wondered, what the hell is going on? I had Lear return for a second interview and the public response was even bigger. t was clear that the subject touched the pulse of the pubic in a way i did not understand or had not recognized. I started reading UFO books and tried to get my head around the subject, went to Lear’s home to see what else he had in his files, then had him on the program a third time, an interview that aired sometime in late 1988. It was a pretty wild program because Lear brought along a guy named Bill Cooper, who spun quite a tale of mystery. In that interview, Lear hinted that he knew a guy who might be taking a job at Area 51. That guy turned out to be Bob Lazar. In May 1989, I was the anchorman on the 5 pm news and our interview guest cancelled at the last minute. I called Lear to ask if his Area 51 contact might be willing to come on the show, even if we had to hide his identity. He called Lazar. We sent our live truck to Lear’s house. The live silhouette interview we did with Lazar created a firestorm and media frenzy, and dramatically changed the lives of everyone who was directly involved, for better or worse.

Area 51 has since become known all over the world.

Danny Silva: What are the biggest stories and issues affecting the subject that aren’t getting talked about or focused on? What UAP incidents have slipped through the cracks that should be revisited?

George Knapp: In just the last few weeks, the public has heard about mystery metals and meta-materials, pieces of odd stuff that reputedly is from crash sites or UFO landing sites. It’s been around for a long time but either wasn’t tested or our technology was not advanced enough to notice the unusual properties. TTSA has issued some clues about what it is doing. I hope that we might soon learn about really unusual, distinctly physical pieces of evidence that will be difficult to dismiss. Months before the New York Times broke its story, I was fortunate to get an early view of the Pentagon videos that are now widely known…Gimbal and Go Fast. People can nitpick all they want, but those videos are damned interesting, and, in my opinion, are legit. I hope that we will learn a lot more about the videos that are already known. I am less hopeful about the other videos that were scheduled for public release. I’m just guessing, but I can imagine there are military recordings of very clear, very dramatic, multi-plane, long-duration encounters with unknown aircraft. Presumably, there could be dozens of highly qualified military witnesses. If such video exists, we have no idea if it will ever be released.

If you have noticed, since the Pentagon reluctantly admitted to the NY Times that AATIP was real, there have been NO releases of UFO files or video, despite thousands of records requests filed by the public. I am NOT optimistic that this will change. Bottom line, there are thousands of UAP incidents that have slipped through the cracks…..that have never been made public at all…and I do not believe the Pentagon is in Disclosure mode. It might look that way, but it really is not the case. Ultimately, this subject is NOT about physical, observable UFOs, in my opinion. That stuff is window dressing. If you want to get to the next level, consider the possibility that UFOs are like shiny baubles on a Christmas tree ….or candles on a birthday cake. They are a performance, and sometimes a distraction. For a deeper dive, read Vallee.

Danny Silva: You are able to boil things down into profound statements. You now have become the story. You are one of the only outlets that the community is able to turn to for direct, credible information. Do you have any plans to write another book, or get more of your personal story released in some way?

George Knapp: Any decent reporter would be aghast at the suggestion that THEY have become the story. I certainly do not agree with that assessment in this case. I have been able to break some pretty good stories related to the subject because of a combination of geography, some tenacity, and a lot of luck. When the 1989 stories about Lazar and Area 51/S-4 exploded on a massive scale, I was fortunate to get a call from a Las Vegas businessman named Bob Bigelow, who is an amazing –and greatly misunderstood person. He told me he was interested in the subject and wanted to know how he could help. I had no idea he would subsequently create an elite scientific team–NIDS–and that I would get to meet and interact with…. truly remarkable people like Colm Kelleher, Hal Puthoff, Kit Green, Edgar Mitchell, Eric Davis, John Alexander, Jacques Vallee, and many others who do not want their names to be made public. It was a mind-blowing and humbling experience. For years, I was allowed to be a fly on the wall for much of what they pursued back then, including their investigation of a Utah property that would later be known as Skinwalker Ranch. NIDS has been described as a UFO research organization. That doesn’t even come close.

Another fortuitous connection is Harry Reid. In 1989, when I was initially overwhelmed by the Bob Lazar/Area 51 allegations, the first person I told–outside of the KLAS newsroom–was Harry Reid. Reid later became the Senate Majority Leader, the most influential Nevadan in history. Over the next quarter century, we continued a discreet, off the record conversation about UFOs. The conversation is ongoing. In the mid 90’s, I told Sen. Reid about NIDS. He had met Bob Bigelow many years before, so he asked about attending a NIDS board meeting. (Reid was not the only Senate member who was present.) It happened. He developed an understanding and appreciation of the larger subject matter. From that seed–and a variety of other lucky circumstances–I am now in an unexpectedly fortunate position, just at the time when all of this UFO news is breaking. Harry Reid was the principal sponsor of the Pentagon UFO study. Bob Bigelow created BAASS, which relied on the talents of many of the NIDS scientists. Some of those NIDS scientists are now part of Tom Delonge’s TTSA. That has spawned many conspiracy scenarios, I know, but the simple fact is, there are not that many credible scientists with DOD clearances who are willing to put their careers on the line by tackling these subjects.

It is understandable why some people want to connect the dots and assume that all of these people are involved in the same ongoing plot, but that is simply not true, in my opinion. I have great respect for Mr. B, and for the work done by NIDS, and I think this subject matter is lucky to have people like Hal Puthoff and Chris Mellon and Lue Elizondo who are STILL willing to risk their personal and professional reputations in the pursuit of this bewildering and frustrating mystery. As for future books, there are several I would like to write but can’t imagine when I would ever have the time. There really should be a new book about Skinwalker Ranch because the story of the BAASS study, what they encountered, and how BAASS interacted with the AATIP folks has not been told. (BTW—shameless plug—there is new info coming in Jeremy Corbell’s film about Skinwalker. It will be unleashed in September.) I also think there could be an important book about the politics of UFOs and the extraordinary risks that were taken by Harry Reid and a few others to both initiate and protect the Pentagon UFO study. I could not write such a book unless given the green light by both Mr. Bigelow and Senator Reid because I made a promise.

Danny Silva: Tom Delonge highlighted Operation Starfish Prime as one of the most important moments in the history of the phenomenon. In regards to weapons being used against UAP, what has your research pointed towards and what is your opinion?

George Knapp: Sorry, but I don’t know anything about it, beyond what has been reported.

Danny Silva: How do you obtain the documents you release?

George Knapp: I can’t tell you. I’ll say this much—the guesses are wrong.

Danny Silva: You were involved in Wikileaks’ Podesta emails. The public was able to hear from you directly, speaking candidly to Tom. How did you first find out that you were involved in the leak? How were you affected by it and did you receive any blow back?

George Knapp: Someone sent me an email to let me know that my name came up in the Wikileaks dump. It was a very weird feeling. It happened again a few weeks ago when the Russians who allegedly

engineered the hack were indicted, by name. I received no blowback whatsoever. I think Tom had some problems in dealing with the people whose names were mentioned. Some of them may have cut off contact. He seems to be moving forward.

Danny Silva: In the Wikileaks emails, Delonge said you were in his secondary advisory group. Recently, you stated that ended when the emails were leaked. What were some of the most important topics discussed during that time?

George Knapp: If I was listed as a secondary advisor, I don’t remember it. I did talk to Tom a lot back then. I would certainly be a secondary person compared to the other folks he engaged during that time. I’m not going to be specific about personal conversations, but will say this: the reasons I wanted to continue a conversation with Tom are 1) because it was fun to bullshit about UFOs with him, 2) because he was smart, 3) because he wanted to learn more about how it all fits together, and 4) because he went way out on a limb for this subject. I have read these scathing, brutal, atomic bombs lobbed in his direction…initially from Blink 182 fans who insisted he reunite with the band, then from UFO people who think he is being used by the Deep State, then from hardcore conspiracy folks who are certain he is helping to initiate a false flag alien invasion…blah blah blah…. I think that what TTSA is doing is pretty remarkable. I do not know where it will lead but am willing to give them some space before I pass final judgement.

The last 9 months have seen a major shift on how the topic is viewed. It is the biggest change in my 30 or so years of chasing this. If this is some kind of stealth disclosure operation, great. If it is disinfo, we will know soon enough. What if it’s real? Lue Elizondo, in my opinion, is a solid dude. It does not seem to me that he is spreading lies. At the MUFON event, he responded to a semi-hostile question about his motives and told the audience that even if he is carrying out an assignment here, sharing UFO info with the public because he was ordered to do it, what is the difference? Ufology wants the government to admit these things are real and that the subject should be studied. It just happened.

Christian Flynn: There are two dominant schools of thought on the incident at Roswell. One promotes the ET hypothesis, the other a Nazi/Russian source. Which do you find more compelling?

George Knapp: Roswell is a mud puddle for me. Seems like that is on purpose. I have no idea if it was ET, but I believe the eyewitnesses. The Nazi/Russian story is interesting but not credible. Who knows? Maybe there is physical evidence that can be analyzed.

Christian Flynn: What was the final piece or pieces of evidence that concretised your belief in the Bob Lazar story?

George Knapp: Mostly, it was the little things that happened during that very strange period….break-ins at Bob’s house…in his car…the people that followed us around…the agency that tapped my phone and then threatened and intimidated people who agreed to be interviewed. When I visited Los Alamos National Lab, and the guard waved Bob into the facility without even looking at his badge, then other folks in different LANL facilities did the same…the fact that the lab denied he had ever worked there, even though he was listed in their phone book…..the fact that Kirk Meyer initially offered to hand over his employment file, then said there was delay, then said they didn’t have the files, then wouldn’t take my calls at all..the fact that he knew the name of the investigator who came to his house to do a background check….and, perhaps most importantly, Bob knew when and where a glowing disc shaped object would be flown on Wednesday nights out in the Nevada desert. It happened three weeks in a row and it’s on video. I lived through it, I saw it, and it was real. When Lazar got into trouble for getting involved with some hookers—a not-entirely-uncharacteristic move on his part–the Parole folks wanted him to do hard time because they could not confirm his background. THAT was the time to come clean if he was making it up, because if he stuck to a lie, it meant prison. He didn’t change his story. I used to care whether people believed Lazar or not. I stopped that many years ago. People can make up their own minds, but I was there.

Keith Mayoh: In a recent interview with Shadows of your mind magazine you stated that you have suspicions that the Ute tribal people have other ideas about what may be going on at Skinwalker Ranch, can you share these with us?

GK: Some of them told us (this year) that they view the ranch property as a portal..a place where spirits of their ancestors move from one life to the next.

Keith Mayoh: You have given the subject a lot of coverage through the years particularly in the I-team news format. Is there a general consensus with your colleagues there that this subject is legitimate or is there some skepticism?

George Knapp: I hope there is some skepticism. That’s our job. In our newsroom, I’ve been there longer than anyone and was reporting UFO stories before any current employee was hired, so it sort of comes with the territory when new people are hired. Seems like a lot of them have heard about it before they get there, or soon thereafter. I have the support of my news director and station management and think my fellow employees generally tolerate my eccentricities. For many years since I dived into the deep end of the pool, our competitors in both TV and print took a lot of pot shots. It’s okay. I have hard bark. I think the events of recent months make it a lot harder to laugh it off.

Jason Goldthorpe: Has the phenomena changed how it portrays itself in anyway over the years that you have been involved with the subject?

George Knapp: It always changes. That is maybe the only consistent thing about it. In the late 80’s when I started down this road, the dominant paradigm was that UFOs are spaceships piloted by aliens from other planets. It didn’t take long to figure out that the explanation really doesn’t cut it. There might be ET’s visiting here in spaceships that are far more advanced than anything we have… and maybe we have recovered pieces of those ships. The pieces, the ships, maybe the bodies of the visitors could be distinctly physical, measurable, real in every sense, but I don’t think that evidence adds up to anything remotely close to actual truth. I do not claim to know what the real deal is, and in my opinion, no one does. No one. This thing takes on many forms. It appears to us in different ways. Sometimes it is physical and many times it is not. The shapes and forms change from century to century, continent to continent. Humans have different name for it, different explanations. UFOs and ETs are seemingly distinct from Bigfoot and poltergeists… and from fairies and goblins and creatures and bulletproof wolves. I think the phenomena has always been here, and it often puts on shows and displays for us, messes with our heads, manipulates humans on both micro and macro scales. Vallee and Puthoff and others say the UFO craft can manipulate space-time, which means they could be from other planets.. or other realities .. or other times… or all of the above. I don’t think the phenomena is benign, and I don’t think anyone really knows what it is or where it is from or what its agenda is.

Jason Goldthorpe: Is it possible that Bob Lazar was purposefully planted as a conduit for the UAP community?

George Knapp: Yes, it is possible. I’ve had that conversation with Bob more than a few times and he agrees it is possible, but if he is a plant or operative, I think it is not a conscious decision on his part. They definitely messed with his head….. and with mine.. and with the other people who were in his orbit. (And it is still going on, by the way.) But, as I have stated a few times, if the idea was to release the UFO story as a distraction from some other program under way at Area 51/S-4, that was a really bad plan, because the end result was to shine an international spotlight on that secret base and whatever it might be doing. Was it an operation to see how the public might react to this kind of news? Maybe, but again, I think the consequences were not what was intended. The public didn’t freak out. The general reaction was—and IS—please tell us more. There is a documentary movie in the works about Lazar. You can judge for yourselves.

Jason Goldthorpe: Is there a possibility that Robert Bigelow is involved in other SAPs as well as his own space program? Do you think he is still studying the phenomena but in a different guise?

George Knapp: No. and No. Mr. Bigelow will always have an interest in the subject, but he separated himself from any active role. People don’t want to believe it, but it is true. He had very good reasons for taking this step. The business reasons are well known. There are personal reasons that are even more compelling. I’ve known him for almost 30 years and he has always been honest with me. He is no longer actively involved.

Jason Goldthorpe: Will we eventually get to see full length videos such as the gimbal and do you agree that if we do it can only be congress that makes such a release?

George Knapp: I hope so but am not optimistic. Unless Congress or the White House order the Pentagon to release other videos, it seems unlikely. I do not agree with the general opinion that some sort of formalized disclosure program is underway. It might look like it, but it is also possible that multiple parties, acting independently, have seized the moment and tossed a few tidbits into the mix. To someone, it might appear to be a large, coordinated effort, but looks can be deceiving. Remember, many of the people who have always wanted to keep the public in the dark about this are still working on the inside.

I-Team: Race is on to solve the mystery of unknown materials

LAS VEGAS - A global scramble is underway to identify and perhaps replicate unidentified mystery materials that have been collected at multiple sites around the world.

A few of the samples have defied analysis by leading scientists, who say they don't know how the material was engineered, or why, or by whom?

Some of the metamaterial was allegedly collected in connection with UFO incidents, which gives the whole endeavor an otherworldly glow.

For years, the Pentagon secretly studied the seemingly impossible abilities of unknown craft captured in military videos.

Scientists now want to know if the materials used in these mystery aircraft allow them to do what they do. For years, one of the secret studies was carried out by BAASS (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies), a Las Vegas operation hidden within Bigelow Aerospace.

Documents first reported by the I-Team show that BAASS landed a contract with the DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency), and one of the objectives was to study so called metamaterials, as well as futuristic technologies.

"It was a multilayered bismuth and magnesium sample. Bismuth layers less than a human hair. Magnesium samples about 10 times the size of a human hair, supposedly picked up in the crash retrieval of an advanced aerospace vehicle. It looks like it's been in a crash," said Dr. Hal Puthoff, with the Institute for Advanced Studies during a presentation in Las Vegas.

In June, physicist Hal Puthoff came pretty close to saying that the weird wedge of metamaterial came from a crashed saucer, but he can't know for sure. Puthoff and his colleague Dr. Eric Davis are on the cutting edge of attempts to identify an assortment of bits and pieces that are seemingly beyond anything we can create.

This one sample is engineered in layers thinner than microns, through a process unknown on earth, and for a purpose we can only guess.

"Nowhere could we find any evidence that anybody ever made one of these when we talked to people in the materials field who should know, they said we don't know why anybody would want to make anything like this," Dr. Puthoff said.

Astrophysicist Dr. Jacques Vallee has been analyzing mystery materials since the 80s, often using the technical expertise of Stanford University and Silicon Valley to unravel unknown samples acquired from all over the world. Vallee pointedly steers clear of any military funding and he's shared his findings at public conferences.

"We have multiple samples from multiple sources, a wide range of variety and integrity," said Lue Elizondo, To The Stars Academy.

These days, former intelligence officer Lue Elizondo helps to collect and protect unknown chunks for To The Stars Academy. Before that, he ran AATIP (Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program), the Pentagon's secret UFO study. The same one which released the now famous videos of encounters between Navy pilots and the mystery machines dubbed the Tic Tac and Gimbal UFOs.

This summer, To The Stars launched ADAM, its own effort to find and study pieces of material that may have been stashed for decades after being retrieved from the sites of close encounters. Elizondo says there are legitimate reasons why the military, and now private groups, are now in  a race to figure out these materials.

"What our international efforts are to potentially -- and I say potentially, I'm not saying we're doing this, maybe to replicate that technology or to reverse engineer that technology. Now you're getting into sensitivities you don't necessarily want everyone to be privy to," Elizondo said in a June 2018 interview with the I-Team.

When the New York Times broke its story last year about the Pentagon's UFO story, it reported that a sample of mystery material was secretly stored at Bigelow aerospace. Managers of that program told the I-Team that while they are familiar with some of the metamaterial samples, none were ever stashed in Las Vegas.

• The science of proving an object was created by an extraterrestrial civilization
• Dr. Jacques Vallee invites the public to send inquires and samples of mystery metal to him at the following address: P.O. Box 641650, San Francisco, CA 94109

HUNDREDS OF BIRDS FALL FROM THE SKY DURING 5G TEST IN THE NETHERLANDS

Hundreds of birds have fallen from the sky in The Hague, the Netherlands, during a 5G experiment to see how large the range was and whether the new wireless technology would cause any harm in the local area.

News of the adverse effects suffered by the starlings was slow to break, as initially the birds died in small numbers during the first wave of the experiment. However when a further 150 birds suddenly died at the same time, falling into a public park, people began to take notice and investigate.

What caused the death of 297 birds in a park in The Hague?

If you look around that park you might have seen what is on the corner of the roof across the street from where they died: a new 5G mast, where they had done a test at almost the exact same time as the birds fell from the sky.

According to reports, nearby ducks seemed to react oddly as well. They simultaneously put their heads underwater to escape the radiation, while others flew away, landing on the street or in the canal.

All the information that follows comes from John Kuhles’ public Facebook page:

In the meantime (30-10-2018) received some more information. The birds that fell massively dead would be the victims of an experiment, performed on those days in The Hague, where RF radiation was tested with a peak frequency of 7.40 GHz. This information comes from one source and should still be confirmed, if possible.

It is not clear at this moment whether tests with 5G transmission masts have been carried out again, but so far everything points in the direction of 5G as the most probable cause. Earlier, crazy things happened, such as with cows in Groningen’s Loppersum last year, where it was also tested with 5G. But also how in Switzerland a complete herd of cows collapsed in a ravine when there was tested with 5G.

In the Huijgenspark in The Hague, more than a hundred starlings have fallen dead from the trees in recent days. It is a mystery what happened to the animals.

The Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) is having a number of birds examined in the laboratory of Wageningen Bioveterinary Research. Parts of the park are blocked and dogs are no longer allowed to be let out. The dead birds are always cleaned up as quickly as possible. Yet it is a lugubrious scene. Council member Robert Barker of the Party for the Animals had the feeling of being on a ‘crime scene’. “The fact that so many birds fall from the sky at this location must have a cause and must be investigated. If there is talk of poisoning, then we have to take a hard time. ”

It is also possible that the birds have a disease. “In any case, it’s going fast. The animals are not emaciated, do not seem ill. They just fall dead from the tree, “says employee Sharon Lexmond of bird shelter De Wulp.

A possible link was established between 5G trials in Groningen and the ‘crazy cows there, as they were called, see here.

Further info from Facebook:

Trondheim (3rd city of Norway) also attacked the birds. After 6 months there was no toxicological report yet. It has also happened in Sweden, Australia, United States.

In the meantime (30-10-2018) I received some more information. The birds that fell massively dead would be the victims of an experiment, performed on those days in The Hague, where RF radiation was tested with a peak frequency of 7.40 GHz, which corresponds to a wavelength of 4.05 cm. This wavelength is of the same order of magnitude as the size of the starlings. This may be important because of possible resonance effects. The mast in question is about 400 meters from where the starlings have fallen dead. This information comes from one source and should still be confirmed, if possible.

Mysterious bird deaths in The Hague: dead starlings fall massively from the sky

Oct. 26, 2018

For several days in a row, dead starlings fall from the sky in the Huijgenspark in The Hague. It is estimated that around 150 birds have already lost their lives. What is the cause of this is being investigated?

The Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, the Dutch Wildlife Health Center and a Wageningen University laboratory are investigating the cause of death of the starlings. A veterinarian of bird care De Wulp performed a number of birds last week. She only found internal bleeding and no trace of poison.

Contaminated water

“Last year we had the same situation at the Haagse Hogeschool, where it was renovated at the time ”, says an employee of the Animal Ambulance.” Then dozens of dead jackdaws were found, which were probably poisoned because they had been drinking polluted water. What is going on right now is really speculating. Hopefully, we know more next week, because this is not normal. ”

No trace of poison.

Source 3: Dierenhospitaal and Dierenambulance The Hague

Again, dead starlings have been found in the Huijgenspark in The Hague. More than ninety dead birds were spread across the park in the Stationsbuurt.

We took the birds. Last time, five of the deceased starlings were examined by a local specialist. It did not show signs of poison, but only internal bleeding in two copies. The newly found starlings are examined by the specialized Wageningen Bioveterinary Research laboratory in Lelystad and the Dutch Wildlife Health Center in Utrecht.

The municipality has promulgated a ban on dogs in the area because the cause of the mortality is unclear. Poisoning is taken into account. The area has been blocked by the police.

How is the current state of affairs with regard to the dead starlings?

Last Friday, Wednesday and Thursday, a total of +/- 150 deceased starlings were found in the Huijgenspark in The Hague. On Sunday, Thursday and Friday our veterinarian visited and carried out a total of 15 animals and collected material for further research. On Wednesday, the NVWA collected a cargo of birds that were examined in Lelystad on West Nile Virus. The negative result has now arrived.

On Thursday, the Dutch Wildlife Health Center also picked up a load of birds and we got a result today. Both veterinarians (ours and those from the DWHC) discussed their findings with each other. (Birds in good condition, some small bleeding in some animals, good for the upcoming winter, empty stomachs.) It is a very strange story!

Components of the deceased birds now go to various institutes for further research into rat poison and various viruses. On Monday the preparations are ready and the microscopic examination is started.
In the meantime, the municipality has instituted an outlet ban in the park until further notice.

We will keep you informed and hope that we will get a quick answer regarding the bizarre deaths.

There is, of course, no certainty about the cause. There are stronger 4G and IoT channels in the vicinity near the park. In July there was also 5G tested, but then the birds did not swarm and they did not arrive in the park. IoT has also been active since 30 October 2017, so it is only briefly active with a safe distance (for humans) of 7.4 meters and with a 2000 Watt transmitter at less than 200 meters from the park main beam direction exactly across the park. Also at the same distance LTE channels and at another location also LTE stations etc. Here again exactly about the park.

The truth about the safety of 5G is that it’s not safe and corporations are being allowed to roll out the new technology before they are sure about it’s effects.( Or because they already know it’s very harmfull to humans and animals and thats why they want to roll it out as fast as possible before any “public testings” that would be mae this technology banned from being rolled out.)

The roll out of 5G technology is a “massive bio-experiment” that will have “disastrous consequences” for the human race, according to the first major university study into the controversial wireless service — and a coalition of 200 leading scientists and doctors are calling for an urgent stop to the roll out.

“5G technology is a very real danger,” warns Dr. Moskowitz, a public health professor at the University of California. “The deployment of 5G, or fifth generation cellular technology, constitutes a massive experiment on the health of all species,” he said.

With the death of the birds in the Netherlands, we are already starting to see the results of 5G technology.

STEEDS VAKER PURPERE LUCHTEN ( VIDEO )

Vaak ver voordat er iets over wordt geschreven in de mainstream media zijn er al mensen die dingen opmerken en er berichten over plaatsen. 

Zoals het fenomeen paarse luchten, die door steeds meer mensen op verschillende plekken worden waargenomen. 

Wij hebben al eerder geschreven over paarse luchten, onder andere begin dit jaar:

Er verschijnen steeds meer berichten, ook bij de mainstream, over vreemde, paarse luchten zoals de volgende:

Of zoals de volgende, onlangs genomen in de Amerikaanse staat Tennessee: 

En in Ecuador:

De vreemde paarse luchten en ook een mogelijke verklaring daarvoor kwamen aan bod in een eerder artikel: 

Zo werden de inwoners van de Amerikaanse stad Houston enkele weken geleden wakker en zagen ze overal paarse luchten. 

Aangezien eerst even de zon scheen en toen onweerswolken binnen begonnen te rollen, werd de lucht helemaal paars en zong iedereen in de stad het lied “Purple Rain” van de onlangs overleden Prince. 

Volgens Nancy Lieder van Zetatalk wordt dit soort verschijnselen veroorzaakt door een combinatie van het ijzeroxide stof in wat zij noemt de “staart van Niburu”, die zich vermengt met luchtvervuiling zoals je die in Houston aantreft. Dit zorgt ervoor dat in plaats van een rode kleur de hemel boven de stad paars kleurt. 

We gaan nu richting einde van het jaar en het aantal mensen dat vreemde paarse luchten ziet, schijnt toe te nemen. 

Op 13 oktober werd de volgend opname gemaakt in de Amerikaanse staat Ohio. Het valt de getuige dusdanig op dat hij ervoor naar buiten gaat, constateert dat het geen lamp is en dat dit in een bepaald gedeelte van de lucht voor komt. 

Ook de volgende opname is op dezelfde dag gemaakt in Ohio door iemand die onderweg was om te tanken. Ook deze zegt nog nooit een dergelijke lucht te hebben gezien: 

Bijna twee weken later was het opnieuw raak in de staat Ohio: 

En dan de volgende vreemde paars/blauwe licht die is gefilmd in Bellevue in de staat Washington. 

En tenslotte nog een opname van enkele dagen geleden, dit keer uit de staat Winsconsin en ook hier hetzelfde verhaal: Degene die het heeft gefilmd heeft nog nooit eerder zoiets gezien. 

Allemaal mensen die zich afvragen hoe het kan dat de lucht paars is en allemaal mensen die zeggen nog nooit eerder zoiets gezien te hebben.

Antarctica continues to dominate the news, with the discovery of lost continents, scientists stabbing each other and that amazing perfectly-rectangular iceberg. Speaking of that berg, its popularity has inspired NASA to forget about the dead Martian rover for a while and try and figure exactly how it formed. It did, and the answer is …

Not so fast! We might as well join NASA and milk this frozen squareberg for all it’s worth. After the tabular iceberg was discovered in October 2018 by NASA scientist Jeremy Harbeck while riding in a plane when he was supposed to be studying changes in the thickness of the glaciers and ice sheets, speculation on its pointed to A-68, the massive iceberg that broke off from the Larsen C Ice Shelf in 2017. This sounded plausible since A-68 was travelling into slightly warmer waters and banging into the coast and other icebergs. Ice on the thinner edges could easily break off along a straight line.

However, when it comes to tracking the lineage of icebergs, the proof is in the pictures. NASA went far above Jeremy Harbeck’s Operation IceBridge plane to images from its Landsat 8 and the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-1 satellites taken over the past few years. Scanning the Larsen C ice shelf, they found that the squareberg actually broke of from it rather than A-68 just weeks after the monster berg’s violent exit, which probably left the edges of Larsen C in a weakened state.

The image of the birth of the squareberg (seen here) shows just how tiny the 4 km long iceberg is in relation to A-68, which is often compared to states or small countries. What surprised NASA researchers more than its shape was that it stayed relatively intact for a year as it floated very close to both the ice-bull-in-a-china-shop A-68, which is constantly colliding with the Bawden Ice Rise, an elevated ice shelf on Larsen C, and other smaller icebergs. While still rectangular, it’s down to 1500 meters by 900 meters and tending towards a trapezoid with just two parallel sides.

Still, it’s pretty impressive … as is NASA’s quick work in using its satellites to accurately pinpoint its place of origin. Now, if they could just use the same satellites to find keys and remote controls …

Time travel. It is a staple of science fiction and has long captured the imagination. It seems as if that is the realm in which it should stay, within movies and books, and entertaining yarn but far from reality. Yet in this day and age of the Internet there have been people given a voice that they never had before, and cases have come out of the woodwork of people who actually claim to be time travelers. Not only that, but some of them actually say that they have the evidence to prove it. Outlandish, surreal, and always bizarre, here are some cases of self-professed time travelers who say they can prove it.

A very strange individual came forward in November of 2017 with quite a bizarre and colorful tale to tell, and would go on to become quite the media and viral video sensation at the time. The man calls himself Noah, and claims that he is in fact from the future, the year 2030 to be exact, becoming stranded here in the present due to a “failed mission” in which he got “fired” and stuck in our present and decided to tell the world of the realities of time travel and of his experiences in a series of videos on YouTube. Of the machine that he used to jump through time, he has explained to news.com.au:

I have many body implications and things all over myself, and I step in this giant dome and these things fire up and basically a large electronic weight basically pushes you through time. It feels like if you got electrocuted.

The range of stories he has to tell of these adventures is as outlandish as it is entertaining. Noah claims that he was recruited into the government’s top secret time travel program at a very young age, and that he regularly took anti-aging pills to fight the aging effects that time travel had on his body, saying “When you time travel you gain time. When I was in junior high and I was a time traveler, I had to take these pills to make sure I don’t grow old while time travelling.” He also has made numerous predictions about the future, including that Trump will win a second term of presidency, that the granddaughter of Martin Luther King Jr., Yolanda Renee King, will become president at some point, and many others. According to Noah there will be a cure for cancer, that scientists will live on Mars in 2028, incidentally the same year we figure out time travel, and that we get into contact with extraterrestrials.

It all sounds pretty vague, rather unimaginative and not really that hard to guess, but what really made his story take off in the news is that he supposedly passed a lie detector test on all of this. He has also shown footage that he claims is from the future. At one point during his interview on YouTube he produces a smartphone and shows a futuristic looking city with red clouds ominously hanging over it, which he claims to be Las Vegas in the year 2120. It looks pretty questionable, as the video is stationary and doesn’t show much that couldn’t be altered through digital manipulation, but Noah has other
“evidence” as well, such as an X-ray image showing a device within his hand that he says is integral for the time travel process, and he has claimed that he has even better evidence that he sadly cannot share for fear of triggering a paradox.

Still from “Noah’s” video

Throughout his whole video interview his face is obscured as he says he is in danger of being assassinated for what he is telling the rather skeptical interviewers, and many confessed time travelers do so. He also explains that he is alone, and that although he has family in the present he cannot meet them out of danger of meeting his younger self and causing a massive paradox. It is all a completely off the wall tale that has understandably drawn a lot of criticism, not only for its sheer bizarreness, but also from the fact that the video appears on the Apex TV YouTube channel, a paranormal research organization which is popular for its numerous time traveler stories and which many accuse of being full of hoaxes.

YouTube in general, and Apex TV in particular, are fertile grounds for such wild tales, and it is in this unchecked medium that alleged time travelers have come out of the woodwork. One is an anonymous man who says he worked out of London, where there was a secret laboratory called Globus, involved with testing and experimenting with all manner of bizarre technology, such as teleportation devices and of course time travel. He claims that the mysterious machine used to travel through time is called “The Time Queen,” and that a main component to its inner workings is powerful stone that emits some sort of alien, misunderstood  energy. He has explained of this Time Queen:

The most important part in that machine was the piece of asteroid which has a radiation maker. The radiation of uranium is even weaker. The power of the stone has such energy it can destroy the whole planet. Fortunately, that energy only can be used in laboratory. Otherwise, the planet could be already destroyed. That energy can create time borders. We can outsmart computers to that energy and get an algorithm which transforms time to the mathematics, and this let us to travel through the time.

The machine was used to travel to the past in the United States, Russia and Britain, and frequently to 17th century China, but that certain limitations of the technology meant he could only travel a maximum of 4,000 years back in time. It all sounds completely off the rails, but this time traveler claims to have evidence in the form of a photo of a Swiss made watch that was allegedly found in the tomb of a 17th century Chinese soldier and which he says was a watch he lost on one of his many jaunts through time, of which he would say:

It is just that watch that I had lost in China in 16th to 17th centuries. I was running at the time from Chinese soldiers. A few months ago this watch was found in soldier’s tomb. I think, while I was running, he found and took it. Scientists were shocked.

It is actually striking how many of these self-professed time travelers bring forth what they say is evidence of their time bending adventures, such as photographs, videos, and others. Another man called simply Edward claimed in a video to have been part of a top secret time travel experiment in 2004, and that his travels had taken him far into the future to the year 5000, when much of the planet had been submerged due to global warming and vast wooden cities floated upon the seas of what once was. One of these cities doomed to a watery grave was apparently Los Angeles, California, a fact which Edward “proves” with a photo he produces from his pocket that he claims shows the submerged city but is actually pretty hard to make out. Edward explains of this photo to The Sun, “I was standing on a huge wooden platform. Not only me, houses, building of course all made from wood. And after, I realized it was the same city, Los Angeles, but under water.”

Edward’s photo

There is also the claim from a time traveler calling himself John, from the year 4,000. John says that he has been living in this present for the past 6 years, and that in his home time he is the president of a company that produces flying cars, and that their use of AI had resulted in a potential threat to humanity. According to John, in the year 4000 all birds have been wiped out in order to reduce the danger to the widely used flying cars, and that animals in general, even dogs and cats, are rare. It is due to concerns over the spread of AI that he says he has traveled back to the past, and as evidence of all of this he has shown a picture of what appear to be spider-like robots putting together a future vehicle called the “DR-18.”

Similarly, to John is a man identified as Alexander Smith, who says he is one of the first time travelers and appears in his video looking decidedly disheveled and harried. Smith then goes on to say that the world is in dire danger from AI running amok, and that global warming and floods are also a prominent threat. As proof of his claims he produces a photo from his crumpled suit and holds it up, saying that it is a picture of a city center form the year 2118. The photo looks very blurry and indistinct, and he assures us that this is merely an artifact from the time traveling process, not in any way because it could be a hoax. There is also the photo presented by an unidentified Greek man who in 2017 claimed that he had been recruited by a professor for time travel experiments. One of these experiments saw him launched to the year 10000, where there was a war raging between humans and robots. This man also shows a picture of this future landscape, but it is not clear what it is supposed to be of, and of course the low quality is blamed on the effects of time travel.

The picture from the year 10000

It’s not only photographs or video clips that have been offered up as evidence by time travelers either. One man calling himself W.D. Davis says he is from the year 2200, which he paints a colorful picture of indeed. According to him, in this future not only have all diseases been cured, but humans live on Mars and in great underwater cities, and that we peacefully coexist with aliens that can change shape at will. Davis, who claims to be 103 years old, said that in the future there are “miracle food pellets,” one of which can sustain an adult for a week, and he presented one of these pellets as proof. He says that in the future these pellets will be available to people all over the planet and have solved world hunger. Unfortunately, he would not allow it to be analyzed due to the paradoxical ramifications it could have, so I suppose we will just have to take his word for it.

Another anonymous time traveler is a woman who says she is from the year 3780, and that the use of the time technology is based on chips that these travelers have implanted into their arms. These devices supposedly do something to warp the space-time continuum, and she even produces one of the chips as evidence, which she calls a “skin.” It looks sort of like a big computer chip, and it is hard to tell if that is exactly what it is. The woman rambles for some time on the technology, but it is very hard to understand, and in the end it is hard to tell if any of it makes sense or not.

In the end it is hard to know how much truth any of these bizarre and quite frankly outlandish claims have. It is unfortunate that many such cases come to light on these YouTube videos, a place that is a magnet for those looking to get attention and pull hoaxes, yet there are plenty of people who give these claims serious thought, and they have become a hotbed for discussion and conspiracy theories. It is equally regrettable that the “evidence” that these supposed time travelers present in these cases is circumstantial at best, and clearly faked at worst. Yet is still gets a lot of play in discussions and debates on time travelers. Ultimately, if time travel really does exist, then these cases certainly don’t prove it in any way. It is up to the reader to make up their own mind.

Rocket-like UFO Shoots Out Of Our Sun During Solar Explosion, Nov 8, 2018, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Nov 2018

Location of discovery: Earths Sun

Date of sun photo: Nov 8, 2018 20:36-40

Video file download: 

• https://www.dropbox.com/s/b4lxv1ets0ltrro/Sun%20UFO%20by%20SCW.mp4?dl=0

While searching for UFOs near the sun, I found a long rocket like object shooting out of the sun during a solar explosion. The explosion was so big it rocked the SOHO satellite and jiggled it, but still caught this UFO during the burst. This UFO was really moving fast, but lucky for us the digital camera of the SOHO satellite caught it well. 

 

If I am wrong, and this is burning solar material flying out from the sun, then its enough material to make a mini sun and would easily destroy the earth if it hit us. However solar material would not shoot off at light speed. This object was only caught once, traveled millions of miles across the SOHO satellite view area...and only got caught once...thats a freaking UFO. 

 

I made a short recording of the object and repeated it several times, you may need to pause the video to see the UFO...there are two bursts, its on the second larger solar explosion. I will include my Dropbox link to download the video for those who need it.

Relics of 'lost continents' hidden under Antarctica are revealed by satellite images after scientists track 200 million years of tectonic plate shifts

• Images reveal a timeline of the ancient landmasses buried beneath Antarctica
• They were taken by the long-dead Gravity field and Ocean Circulation Explorer 
• The ESA satellite collected data on Earth's gravitational pull

By HARRY PETTIT FOR MAILONLINE

The European Space Agency (ESA) has uncovered relics of lost continents that have hidden under Antarctica for millions of years.

Satellite images reveal a timeline of the ancient landmasses buried a mile (1.6 km) beneath the icy continent.

Scientists said the snaps shed new light on Antarctica, the 'least understood continent on Earth'.

They used data from the long-dead Gravity field and Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE), which plummeted into Earth after it ran out of fuel in 2013.

While the satellite has been out of action for five years, scientists are still pouring over reams of data it collected on Earth's gravitational pull.

Scroll down for video

Their research allowed them to track hidden tectonic shifts over the last 200 million years, offering fresh insights into how Antarctica formed. Pictured left is the position of the tectonics 180 million years ago, while right shows the plates 10 million years ago

A team of scientists used GOCE readings to map out the movements of Earth's tectonic plates under Antarctica.

Their research allowed them to track hidden tectonic shifts over the last 200 million years, offering fresh insights into how Antarctica formed.

'These gravity images are revolutionising our ability to study the least understood continent on Earth: Antarctica,' said co-author Fausto Ferraccioli, Science Leader of Geology and Geophysics at the British Antarctic Survey.

'In East Antarctica, we see an exciting mosaic of geological features that reveal fundamental similarities and differences between the crust beneath Antarctica and other continents it was joined to until 160 million years ago.'

Scientists combined the GOCE readings with seismological data to create 3D maps of Earth's lithosphere.

The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the molten mantle beneath Earth's surface, and includes mountain ranges, ocean backs and rocky zones called cratons.

Cratons are the leftovers of ancient continents embedded in continents as we know them today.

The new readings shed light on the breakup of Gondwana, a long-gone 'supercontinent' that housed what is now Antarctica.

While the landmass split some 130 million years ago, the map shows that Antarctica and Australia remained linked as recently as 55 million years ago.

The study also revealed that West Antarctica has a thinner crust than East Antarctica, which has a 'family likeness to Australia and India'.

WHAT WAS ESA'S GOCE SATELLITE?

The European Space Agency's (ESA) Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) probe tracked the pull of Earth's gravity.

It orbited our planet for over four years, from March 2009 to November 2013.

During that period it got within 140 miles of Earth's surface - unusually low for a satellite - to maximise the accuracy of its instruments.

The European Space Agency (ESA) claims one of its sleek research satellites, dubbed the 'Ferrari of space' has plummeted somewhere into the South Atlantic ocean

Scientists are still scanning GOCE data today in a bid to understand more about processes occurring inside Earth.

In addition, the measurements are being used to improve estimates of polar ice-sheet thickness and their movement.

On 21 October 2013, the mission came to a natural end when it ran out of fuel.

Three weeks later, on 11 November, the satellite disintegrated in the lower atmosphere.

Scientists hope to use their findings to examine how Antarctica’s geology and continental structure is affecting the melting of its ice.

GOCE mission scientist Roger Haagmans said: 'It is exciting to see that direct use of the gravity gradients, which were measured for the first time ever with GOCE, leads to a fresh independent look inside Earth – even below a thick sheet of ice.

'It also provides context of how continents were possibly connected in the past before they drifted apart owing to plate motion.'

Space mission: GOCE was launched in 2009 to map variations in Earth's gravity with unprecedented accuracy

Dit weekend scheren maar liefst drie ruimtestenen langs de aarde

Is 'Oumuamua toch een buitenaards ruimteschip?

Tim Kraaijvanger

Heeft een buitenaards ruimteschip ons zonnestelsel bezocht? Professoren van de Harvard universiteit sluit dit niet uit. Het zou verklaren waarom de asteroïde ‘Oumuamua zich nogal vreemd gedroeg.

‘Oumuamua werd in oktober 2017 ontdekt en was al snel wereldnieuws. De baan van het object – dat toen nog C2017U1 werd genoemd – wees er namelijk sterk op dat de ruimtesteen afkomstig was uit een ander zonnestelsel. Het is mogelijk het eerste interstellaire object dat is aangetroffen in ons zonnestelsel. Anders gezegd: ‘Oumuamua is bij een andere ster dan de zon ontstaan. Dat is natuurlijk al bizar. Als we de zon even vergeten, dan de eerstvolgende ster vier lichtjaar van de aarde verwijderd. Het object heeft dus zeker tientallen biljoenen kilometers afgelegd (en mogelijk nog wel veel meer)…

Vliegende sigaar
Het object is nogal vreemd. Zo lijkt ‘Oumuamua op een enorme, vliegende sigaar. Deze kosmische sigaar is 400 meter lang en 40 meter breed. Daarmee wijkt de asteroïde qua vorm sterk af van andere hemellichamen in ons zonnestelsel. Onderzoekers kunnen niet verklaren hoe een object met een ratio van 1:10 ontstaat.

Lichtzeil?
Maar er is meer. Wetenschappers van het Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics vinden het vreemd dat het object in januari 2018 plotseling versnelde. “Mogelijk is ‘Oumuamua een soort lichtzeil, dat zweeft in de interstellaire ruimte”, schrijft onderzoeker Abraham Loeb in een paper dat is ingediend in het wetenschappelijke vakblad Astrophysical Journal Letters. “Mogelijk wordt het object versneld door zonnestraling.”

Het is geen vreemde gedachte. “Wij mensen maken al soortgelijke lichtzeilen met vergelijkbare afmetingen”, vervolgt Loeb. “Denk maar aan het IKAROS-project en Starshot Initiative. De lichtzeil-technologie wordt misschien vaak gebruikt (door aliens, red.) als vrachttransport tussen sterren of tussen planeten.”

IKAROS was een experimenteel ruimtevaartuig van de Japanse ruimtevaartorganisatie JAXA. Dit ruimtevaartuig werd in mei 2010 gelanceerd en naar de planeet Venus gestuurd. Daarmee demonstreerde de Japanse ruimtevaartorganisatie dat de zonnezeil-technologie werkt in de interplanetaire ruimte.

Niet langer actief
‘Oumuamua heeft een opvallend hoge snelheid en een bijzondere baan. Zo tuimelt de sigaar ongecontroleerd om zijn as. De wetenschappers vermoeden daarom dat ‘Oumumua niet langer actief is.

Geen komeet
Als ‘Oumuamua inderdaad ooit door aliens is gebouwd, dan verklaart dit waarom het object zo vreemd is. Loeb: “Zo reflecteert ‘Oumuamua opvallend veel licht, heeft het geen komeetachtige staart en zendt het object weinig warmtestraling uit.” Als een komeet de zon nadert, dan warmt de zon het oppervlak van de komeet op en komen er gassen vrij. Hierdoor kan een komeet versnellen. Aangezien er bij ‘Oumuamua geen sprake was van ontgassing, verklaart dit niet waarom de interstellaire reiziger plotseling versnelde.

En nu?
Eigenlijk ontstaan er steeds meer vragen, maar blijven deze vragen onbeantwoord. Auteurs Shmuel Bialy en Abraham Loeb concluderen in het paper dat het nu te laat is om ‘Oumuamua te fotograferen of te achtervolgen met raketten. De mannen hopen dat er in de toekomst vaker soortgelijke objecten langs de zon reizen, die wél bestudeerd kunnen worden. Een andere mogelijkheid is dat er duizenden inactieve ruimteschepen gevangen zitten in het zonnestelsel door zwaartekrachtinteracties met Jupiter en de zon. Met de toekomstige Large Synoptic Survey Telescope kunnen deze objecten wellicht worden gespot.

Ancient DNA reveals two previously unknown migrations into South America

 BY TIBI PUIU

Scientists analyzed the ancient DNA of individuals who lived in Central and South America up to 10,000 years ago and found that these regions were settled by at least three waves of migration. The studies paint a rich and diverse history of the Americas, suggesting that the people who formed these migratory waves branched out of a single population that crossed the Bering Strait into North America about 15,000 years ago.

“Our work multiplied the number of ancient genomes available from these areas by about 20, giving us a much more comprehensive picture of indigenous history in the Americas,” co-senior author David Reich, a geneticist at Harvard Medical School and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, said in a statement. “This broader dataset reveals a common origin of North, Central, and South Americans as well as two previously unknown genetic exchanges between North and South America.”

The DNA collected from 49 individuals who lived in Belize, Brazil, the Central Andes, and southern South America shows that they all originate from the same ancestral population that colonized North America. In and of itself, this fact is not particularly remarkable because scientists have always known that Central and South America were peopled by a migration that moved southward. However, what was truly surprising about the findings of three new ancient DNA studies, all published this week (Cell, Science, Science Advances), was that there were multiple distinct migratory movements — some that mixed, others that formed new lineages.

Archaeologists believe that the Clovis people were the first to pass through the land bridge between Siberia and Alaska, which is now underwater, settling in the lower 48 states some 13,000 years ago. The Clovis culture was named after flint spearheads found in the 1930s at a site in Clovis, New Mexico. These mammoth-hunting people are considered to be the ancestors of most of the indigenous cultures of the Americas. Now, the new genomic analysis has yielded fresh insights into how Clovis people may have spread across the Americas.

Researchers compared the genome of a Clovis toddler who lived in Montana about 12,700 years ago to the earliest genome analyzed from South and Central America dating to between 9,000 and 11,000 years ago. The analysis revealed a common ancestry between the remains found in Montana and Lagoa Santa in Brazil, which suggests that the Clovis made a major impact much further south. Previously, anthropologists believed that the people at Lagoa Santa originated from a separate migration from Asia.

“We weren’t expecting to find a relation to people associated with the Clovis culture in South America,” says co-first author Nathan Nakatsuka from Harvard. “But it seems the expansion of the Clovis-associated lineage extended to parts of Central and South America.”

From around 9,000 years ago, however, the Clovis culture-associated ancestry completely disappeared in Peru. We don’t know what was the cause of such a dramatic large-scale population replacement but what seems certain is that the region was populated by a separate wave of migration, which showed remarkable continuity compared to Eurasia and Africa.

“There is remarkable continuity between earlier and later skeletons with South Americans today,” said Cosimo Posth, an archaeogeneticist from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History. “For example, modern-day Quechua and Aymara from the Central Andes can trace their ancestry back to the ancient people of the Cuncaicha site from 9,000 years ago onwards. This is a longer-standing continuity than you see in other continents.”

The big question right now is why the branching occurred so fast. What seems certain is that the narrative of humanity’s distribution across the Americas is far more complex than meets the eye.

“We’re very enthusiastic about the prospects for a much richer understanding of American population history, but this is still a vast region full of geographic and chronological holes,” says Reich. “We’d like to collect more genetic material from earlier and later sites and from more countries, such as Colombia, Venezuela, and other parts of Brazil. We also want to examine the evolution of genetic traits over time.”

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) released this new image on November 6, 2018. It’s a composite image of a giant elliptical galaxy – surrounded by a sprawling cluster of other galaxies – known as Abell 2597. The yellow parts of the image come from observations made by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and show a relatively cold gas. The red is data from ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) showing hot hydrogen gas in the same region. The purple shows extended hot, ionized gas as imaged by Chandra X-ray Observatory.

This vast structure is a billion light-years from Earth. It’s one of our universe’s most massive structures. At the core of Abell 2597, NRAO said:

… a supermassive black hole is powering the cosmic equivalent of a monumental fountain, drawing in vast stores of cold molecular gas and spraying them back out again in an ongoing cycle.

Astronomers have long theorized that fountains such as this continually recirculate a galaxy’s star-forming fuel. But new data from ALMA – based on observations of Abell 2597 – show the first clear and compelling evidence for the simultaneous infalling and outflow of gas driven by a supermassive black hole. The researchers reportedtheir observations in the peer-reviewed Astrophysical Journal.

Astrophysicist Grant Tremblay at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics is lead author on the new paper. He said in a statement:

The supermassive black hole at the center of this giant galaxy acts like a mechanical ‘pump’ in a water fountain. This is one of the first systems in which we find clear evidence for both cold molecular gas inflow toward the black hole and outflow or uplift from the jets that the black hole launches.

According to the researchers, this entire system operates via a self-regulating feedback loop. The infalling material provides power for the fountain as it “drains” toward the central black hole, like water entering the pump of a fountain. This infalling gas then causes the black hole to ignite with activity, launching high-velocity jets of super-heated material that shoot out of the galaxy. As it travels, this material pushes out clumps and streamers of gas into the galaxy’s expansive halo, where it eventually rains back in on the black hole, triggering the entire process anew.

In total, about three billion solar masses of molecular gas is part of this fountain, forming a filamentary nebula that spans the innermost 100,000 light-years of the galaxy.

In an earlier study by the same authors published in the journal Nature, the researchers were able to verify the interconnection between the black hole and the galactic fountain by observing the region across a range of wavelengths, or portions of the spectrum. By studying the location and motion of molecules of carbon monoxide (CO) with ALMA, which shine brightly in millimeter-wavelength light, the researchers could measure the motion of the gas as it falls in toward the black hole.

Earlier data from the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) revealed warm, ionized gas being expelled from the galaxy – essentially the plume of the fountain. The new ALMA observations found clumps of cold, molecular gas in precisely the same locations as the warm gas seen in the earlier observations. Tremblay commented:

The unique aspect here is a very detailed coupled analysis of the source using data from ALMA and the MUSE instrument. The two facilities make for an incredibly powerful combination. ALMA revealed the distribution and motions of the cold molecular gas clouds, and MUSE did the same for the warm ionized gas.

The ALMA and MUSE data were combined with a new, ultra-deep observation of the cluster by NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, revealing the hot phase of this fountain in exquisite detail, noted the researchers.

The observations also very convincingly support the hypothesis that the warm ionized and cold molecular nebulas are one and the same, with the warm ionized gas merely being the “shell” around the cold molecular cores that churn within this galaxy-scale fountain.

This multiwavelength approach offers an uncommonly complete picture of this system. Tremblay noted:

It’s like observing the rain cloud, rain, and puddle all at the same time.

While this is just one observation of one galaxy, the astronomers speculate that they may be observing a process that is common in galaxies and fundamental to their evolution.

Bottom line: At the core of the giant elliptical galaxy Abell 2597, a supermassive black hole is powering the cosmic equivalent of a gargantuan, ongoing fountain.

The Orion Cube: An extraterrestrial device hidden by the US

Dan Burisch, a doctorate in microbiology and former worker of the secret military forces of the United States, details great puzzling information about extraterrestrials, the Orion Cube, time machines, secret government plans and human extinction.

Dan Burisch, born in California in 1964, studied microbiology and psychology at the University of Las Vegas, Nevada. He graduated in 1986 and did a Ph.D. in microbiology in 1989 in the state of New York. A sports fan since childhood, he played basketball. But his true passion was science and five years later he was given his first microscope, after which he later became the youngest member of the microbiology society of Los Angeles.

In 1986 he received an unexpected visit at the University of Las Vegas, the so-called “secret” government of the United States. Two of those men, in military uniform, offered to work on a top-secret project where they could put their talent to work at a maximum level. In 1987 he began working in a Nevada State Government office related to prison parole. In 1989 he began receiving tissue samples. Burisch examined them in another place and sent the report to the place of origin of the same. In 1989 he worked on a secret project and also on the so-called “Sharp Storm”. But in 1994 he was taken to an underground place called “Century IV” which is part of Area 51, where he started working on the “Aquarium” project.

There he learned that the military were in possession of ships and extraterrestrial beings. In one department there was information about beings called Orions, beings from the star system Z Reticuli. Also a copy of the agreement made by President Eisenhower, beings called P-50 and the so-called Orions.
In a place called The Bay of Galileo, Burisch could see different types of spacecraft. One of them was the ship that Bob Lassar (a former Nasa worker who made Area 51 known in the eighties). Another of the ships he saw was the one that crashed in Roswell in 1947.

According to Burisch, we have a misguided concept of aliens. It clarifies that aliens and extraterrestrials are not the same. But aliens are beings that come from other planets, and that extraterrestrials are human in the future and that they travel in time to solve certain problems, but they are from the earth, because these are actually the evolution of the human being during thousands of years.

They are distinguished into four groups. They are classified with the letter P, which means present time and the years that lead us in the future. For example, Roswell’s are P-24. That is, present time plus 24 thousand years in the future. The others are known as: J ROD P-45, J ROD P-52 and P-54. He says that these JROD suffer from a very painful illness and he participated in this project to try to find a cure. He claimed to have taken blood samples a female of these beings and that for two years worked on this project studying the being.

He assures that they came to establish a friendly relationship and that in one of the face-to-face meetings, this one skipped the protocol pouncing on him. He telepathically transmitted a large amount of information in which he could know that two thirds of humanity died in a nuclear catastrophe. A part of the people hid underground to survive and others did it on the surface. 24 thousand years later the most advanced beings on earth could travel in time, which is why they traveled to Roswell in 1947. Roswell’s ship was really a time machine. They did not come from another planet but from Earth.

According to Colonel Philip J. Corso (1914 – 1997) who wrote the book “The day after Roswell”, beings were made to travel in spacetime. They had two brains, one of them to control the ships. And they did not reproduce. He also affirmed that the ship was the key to technological progress.

Other groups “survivors” to the extinction, evolved in the Moon, Mars and finally in Orion, where the P-52 come from, or the Orions, which, in spite of being Terrestrials, also colonized these other places. The P-45 would be the most Machiavellian, thirsty for nuclear catharsis to pass in our future in order to justify its existence. These are responsible for the majority of abductions. They lack emotional empathy.

Eisenhower met with these extraterrestrial groups in order to avoid the obvious nuclear catastrophe. In this meeting diplomatic discussions between civilizations were made and an agreement was adopted to abduct human beings in order to study them, provided they did not suffer or remember anything of what happened. The Orions gave President Eisenhower a cube about eight centimeters wide by another eight centimeters long, capable of predicting the future. It was passed between rich and powerful to be able to choose well in their lives.

Burisch worked directly under the orders of “Majestic 12”. One of his most important statements are those related to the “StarGates”. They are devices made in the earth, but with extraterrestrial technology. According to him, the information on how to make them is in the Sumerias tables. They were used to communicate with other extra-planetary civilizations. With them you could access a wormhole. Next to this enormous apparatus, there was a platform that allowed to throw the object to the wormhole to travel to other stars, teleporting people or materials from one place to another instantly.

But Burisch says it is not very reliable and that he saw a person die during one of the experiments. This device is also known as “Looking Glass” and was used to see probabilities of future events. As they saw, the catastrophe would happen because of these Stargates. According to the doctor, there are fifty Stargates on earth. Although all the Stargates have apparently been dismantled, we are still in danger of extinction today. What do you think about the Orion Cube? Watch the following video and leave us your comment below!

Zonnesonde overleeft eerste duikvlucht met 343.000 km/u - HLN.be

Bron: anp

De Parker Solar Probe werd gelanceerd in augustus en gaat de komende zeven jaar ovale banen rond de zon draaien. De eerste duikvlucht begon vorige week, en afgelopen maandag kwam de Parker tot op 24 miljoen kilometer van de zon. Nog nooit kwam een sonde zo dicht bij onze ster.

Zonnesonde Parker verbreekt record: nooit eerder kwam een ruimtevaartuig zo dicht bij de zon

De Parker haalde daarbij een recordsnelheid van ruim 343.000 kilometer per uur. Beide records worden later nog verbeterd, want in 2024 haalt de Parker een snelheid van ruim 692.000 kilometer per uur en nadert hij tot op 6 miljoen kilometer van de zon.

Hitte

De sonde vliegt nu weg van de zon, en voert in april zijn tweede duikvlucht uit. Tijdens de duikvlucht maandag werd de Parker blootgesteld aan temperaturen van meer dan 400 graden Celsius. Dat loopt op tot bijna 1.400 graden bij volgende duikvluchten. Door koeling blijven de meetinstrumenten aan boord echter op kamertemperatuur.

De Parker doet onder meer onderzoek naar de zonnewind, de stroom geladen deeltjes die de zon constant afvuurt. Het concept daarvan werd bedacht door de nu 91-jarige wetenschapper Eugene N. Parker, naar wie de sonde is vernoemd.

Scientists at the Cern nuclear physics lab near Geneva are investigating whether a bizarre and unexpected new particle popped into existence during experiments at the Large Hadron Collider.

Researchers on the machine’s multipurpose Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector have spotted curious bumps in their data that may be the calling card of an unknown particle that has more than twice the mass of a carbon atom.

The prospect of such a mysterious particle has baffled physicists as much as it has excited them. At the moment, none of their favoured theories of realityinclude the particle, though many theorists are now hard at work on models that do.

“I’d say theorists are excited and experimentalists are very sceptical,” said Alexandre Nikitenko, a theorist on the CMS team who worked on the data. “As a physicist I must be very critical, but as the author of this analysis I must have some optimism too.”

Senior scientists at the lab have scheduled a talk this Thursday at which Nikitenko and his colleague Yotam Soreq will discuss the work. They will describe how they spotted the bumps in CMS data while searching for evidence of a lighter cousin of the Higgs boson, the elusive particle that was discovered at the LHC in 2012.

 Cern scientists announce Higgs boson discovery

The Large Hadron Collider creates particles by smashing subatomic protons into one another at close to the speed of light. When the protons meet, the energy in the collision is converted into mass, and so particles, in line with Einstein’s equation, E=mc².

Many particles created in the LHC are highly unstable and immediately decay into lighter, more stable particles such as photons and electrons. It is by looking for an excess of these particles, apparent as a bump in the data, that physicists tend to find new particles. For example, one way the Higgs boson betrayed its existence was through the unusually high number of photons recorded in collisions in which the particle was made.

But particle physics is no easy pursuit. To the endless frustration of its practitioners, bumps in data produced by nothing more than statistical fluctuations pop up all the time. The best way to distinguish between these and Nobel prize-winning discoveries is to analyse more and more data: statistical flukes always vanish with time.

In two separate analyses, the CMS team found data that pointed to a build-up of muons, or heavy electrons, in their detector. If real, the data indicates a new particle with a mass of 28GeV or 1 billion electron volts, slightly less than a quarter of the mass of a Higgs boson. Whatever it is, it is not the particle Nikitenko and his colleagues were looking for.

To complicate matters further, the bumps were more pronounced in the LHC’s low energy collisions than in more energetic collisions the machine performed after an upgrade. That could be explained, said Nikitenko, if more “background” particles are produced at higher energies that then obscure the signal.

Because the analysis is so time-consuming, it could take the CMS team another year to confirm or rule out the existence of a new particle. But Karl Jakobs, spokesperson for the Cern team that works on Atlas, the LHC’s other multipurpose detector, said it was checking its own data for signs of the proposed particle. “We are working on a similar analysis of the Atlas data, however I cannot yet give you a timeline when the results will become public,” he said.

For Atlas to cross-check the result was “crucial”, Nikitenko said. “If it is confirmed by Atlas it will be the real thing. It will be really something terribly new.”

One independent study has already reported potential evidence for the particle. Arno Heister, a former member of the CMS team who knew about the bumps in the data, analysed older results collected by Aleph, a detector on Cern’s previous particle accelerator known as the Large Electron-Positron Collider (LEP). He found a similar bump at 30GeV. “This excess, if real, is something very unexpected,” he told the Guardian.

• Georg Weiglein, a theorist on the German Electron-Synchrotron machine (DESY) said it will be hard to come up with a model that has a particle like the one the CMS bump calls for. “This does not exclude the possibility that such a signal could actually exist. On the contrary, it would be even more exciting if a signal were observed that does not seem to fit into our present models,” he said. “Further experimental information is eagerly awaited.”
• Michelangelo Mangano, a researcher at Cern, said: “Of course theorists are always happy when some anomaly shows up in the data. And I am confident many colleagues have started looking into this. However it is a bit early to get excited.” “Given that Atlas has yet to release their analysis, and given that much more data is on tape even for CMS, it is clear that the effect will soon be confirmed or diluted away,” he said.

Let’s face it. Forget Musk, Bezos, Branson and the rest of the billionaires trying to become private space entrepreneurs … NASA would be in big trouble without the old-but-reliable-even-with-its-problems Russian space program — Roscosmos. But don’t let those dented and shopworn Soyuz capsules fool you – Roscosmos is eyeing the future and may beat the U.S. to the Moon the next time around … not by man, but by avatar.

“This is about creating a long-term base, naturally, not habitable, but visited. But basically it is the transition to robotic systems, to avatars that will solve tasks on the surface of the moon.”

Dmitry Rogozin, Director General of Roscosmos, revealed his futuristic-yet-feasible plans this week through the state-run news agency RIA Novosti. He likened them to NASA’s vision and subsequent success in the 1960s and 1970s to put the first human on the Moon, with a dig that his is “more ambitious and responsible.” “Responsible” is easier to achieve from Day 1 – avatars do not create waste that must be either stored for transport or disposed of in a way that doesn’t sully the environment.

While what happens on the lunar surface may be ambitious, getting there will still rely on the current Angara carrier rocket and Soyuz spacecraft, allowing Russia’s efforts for new development to focus solely on the robotic work and exploration forces that will ride them to the Moon. That includes heavy use of 3D printing to lessen the load sent with them, including the possible use of lunar soil as a raw material for the 3D printers.

“Plus, there will be an opportunity, as they say at the Academy of Sciences, to use helium-3 as the basis for rocket fuel.”

The Russian Academy of Sciences agrees with NASA and the ESA in the idea that helium-3 – the non-radioactive isotope of helium constantly being brought to the Moon by solar wind – can and should be mined and used as a safe nuclear fuel for a fusion reactor, with the added benefit that its spent fuel is not radioactive.

All of this sounds so doable right now. When will we see Russia take the lead in making science imitate science fiction?

“The first landing of the Russian cosmonaut is scheduled for 2030.”

That whooshing sound is not from balloons but from hopes deflating and the reality setting in that we’re still dealing with antiquated technology, limited budgets, massive bureaucracies and a public (at least in the U.S.) that is slowly losing its faith and trust is science.

Forget Musk, Bezos, Branson and the rest of the billionaires trying to become private space entrepreneurs. It’s time to do an avatar GoFundMe and hire James Cameron!

The first part of this article told (in his own words) the strange saga of a man named Ray Boeche. Part-One started as follows: “My previous article was on the subjects of (A) how the UFO phenomenon might be a threat to our physical and mental health; and (B) why the Men in  Black might not be bad guys, after all. Rather, they just might actually be good guys trying to warn us of the hazards that the same phenomenon might pose. I thought I would follow-up that article with one which graphically demonstrates the dangers that UFO entities and their powers might pose. We have to go way back to November 25, 1991. On that date, Ray Boeche – a priest and a former State-Director with MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network) – had a very strange meeting at Lincoln, Nebraska’s Cornhusker Hotel. It was a meeting with a couple of guys who worked on a highly classified program within the U.S. Department of Defense. Now, with that said, I’ll hand the story over to Ray himself, who I extensively interviewed for my Final Events book.”

And here, in Part-Two, are Ray’s words on what was undoubtedly the most disturbing – and even deadly – part of the story. Why so? Because it all ended in three strange and violent deaths. Back to Ray: “They showed me a dozen photos of three different people – four photos of each person, who had apparently been killed by these experiments. These were all postmortem photographs, taken in-situ, after the experiments. The areas shown in all of the photographs were like a dentist’s chair or a barber’s chairs; and the bodies were still in those positions, sitting in the chairs. Still there, with EEG and EKG leads coming off of them; and I believe that one had leads to their head. They were all wired.

“It was a very clinical setting, and there was no indication of who they were. It was a very disturbing sort of thing. And I’m thinking in the back of my mind: if these are real, who would they have gotten for these experiments? Were they volunteers? Were they some sort of prisoner? I have no idea. Were they American? Were they foreign? There was no way to tell.” Ray told me that the three deaths were caused by a “remotely induced” fatal heart attack;  a “remotely transmitted head trauma” and “remotely controlled suffocation. The deaths and heart attacks were allowed to happen because it served the NHE’s goals: the deception that they were aliens trying to help us and give us this advanced technology.”

As for why Ray was contacted, he told me: “The impression was that it was to test the waters; that’s what they told me. They had read some of my stuff; and they knew that I’d become a pastor and that I had a Christian viewpoint from which I could view these things. And they were concerned morally and ethically that they had allowed themselves to be duped into doing this research; and it had taken such a turn. My concern was always that: why come to me? Who am I? I can’t do anything for you. I’m happy to evaluate it as best I can; but if you have this concern why not go to a Christian leader with a lot more clout and public visibility than I’ve got? But that was their reason: they were aware of the research I had done on a lot of things; that I could approach it from a Christian viewpoint; and that it was more of a moral dilemma for them. They wanted the information out there. But, to me, I have to think: is any of this accurate? On one hand, is this a way to throw disinformation out? But, on the other hand, I think that even if they wanted to just spread disinformation, they could have done it with someone a lot more influential than me.

“As a pastor and someone who’s trained as a theologian, I can’t come to any other conclusion than there is some sort of spiritual deception going on here. In so many of these kinds of alien contacts, they make a denial of Christianity: anytime the spiritual issues are addressed, there is always some sort of denial of the validity of Christianity, and the validity of The Bible. And, I find it interesting that these percipients are told that Jesus was a great guy; but you just misunderstood him. They say: he wasn’t really God’s son. You just don’t quite get it. But you never hear them say that about Buddha, or Krishna, or Mohamed. It always seems to come down to some sort of denial of Christianity. I mean the percipients of contactees, abductees and the NHE’s engage them in spiritual discussions – but it’s always one-sided. I would have a lot less suspicion for the potential of the demonic nature of these things if they were to say: ‘You guys are all screwed up, that all of your spiritual leaders had some good ideas; but none of them really got it. It’s a big mess.’ But it seems to be so specifically pointed at the Judeo-Christian tradition. It certainly seems to me like it’s the two genuine forces squaring up against each other.

“I think that some people have a sharper sense of sight; some have a sharper sense of hearing, or touch. I think there are people who have an ability to somehow have some sense stimulated and be aware of something that the majority of people aren’t. These are people just better gifted in some way than others. This is a thorny thing to dissect because there are definitely demonic influences generally. They do want to deceive us. I’m hesitant to paint with too broad a brush and say that everything can be attributed to them. I think there are too many theologians, Christians, who want to see a demon behind every rock. But I think the demonic world is real. But one of its principle goals is to deceive us. Does that negate the existence of some sort of extraterrestrial intelligence? I don’t think so. I think, though, that the extraterrestrial hypothesis is too simple an explanation. I have come into contact with too many cases that go so far beyond that; where there are so many strange effects that are left in the lives of the percipients that to me seem to say this is E.T. is too simplistic for so many of these things.

Ray’s final words: “A valid way to distract people is the two camps: the E.T. believers and the skeptics, while the real story is buried. The more distractions you can make, the easier it is to keep people from hitting on what’s actually important. That’s what so confusing about the whole thing. I’ve been involved in this since 1965 and this is the most bizarre stuff I’ve ever run across. I didn’t know what to make of it then and I don’t know what to make of it now.”

The news keeps getting stranger from Antarctica. First there was the iceberg (and maybe two) shaped like a perfect rectangle or parallelogram. Then there was a scientist-on-scientist stabbing at a remote Russian station that was blamed on the stabbee spoiling book endings for the stabber. Now comes word that NASA data from a satellite which died five years ago shows multiple lost continents underneath the frozen one. Dead men may tell no tales but it looks like dead satellites can.

“In East Antarctica we see an exciting mosaic of geological features that reveal fundamental similarities and differences between the crust beneath Antarctica and other continents it was joined to until 160 million years ago.”

Commenting in a statement *with map) about a new study in Scientific Reports titled “Earth tectonics as seen by GOCE – Enhanced satellite gravity gradient imaging,” co-author Fausto Ferraccioli reveals what he and a team of researchers from Kiel University and the British Antarctic Survey found after five years of studying data from the European Space Agency’s GOCE (Gravity field and Ocean Circulation Explorer) mission – a gravity-mapping satellite in operation from March 17, 2009, until October 21, 2013, when the very thing it was mapping pulled it to its atmospheric demise. Nicknamed “‘the Ferrari of space” — possibly because of its sleek silver design or its supply of xenon propellant which allowed it to resist drag while it dipped down to a 225 km altitude for highly accurate gravity measurements – the GOCE measured Earth’s gravity more precisely than any satellite ever.

“These gravity images are revolutionising our ability to study the least understood continent on Earth, Antarctica.”

Specifically, those high-resolution images showed gravity gradients – measurements of how rapidly the acceleration of gravity changes – allowed them to search the lithosphere – the solid crust and molten mantle hidden underneath Antarctica’s thick ice – for remnants of ancient ocean beds and cratons, which are highly folded orogen (belt of the earth’s crust involved in the formation of mountains) regions left from previous lost continents that Antarctica was once connected to.

The team released a short video (see it here) showing how these long-lost continents may have looked as they moved around Antarctica – bumping into it, breaking off and floating away.

Is this a big deal?

“Overall, we emphasise that satellite data such as from the GOCE mission, provide novel datasets with a global homogenous coverage that can significantly advance our understanding of the Earth structure and tectonic setting.”

That’s a ‘yes’. Understanding the early history of Earth’s tectonic plates helps predict future earthquakes … and it’s just plain interesting. Perhaps someday, another “Formula One” satellite will tell us once and for all if Antarctica was once occupied by humans … or aliens.

And studying Antarctica from space seems to be safer than a surface look with colleagues who are book spoilers.

A few weeks ago I spoke at the annual Texas Bigfoot Conference, held in Jefferson, Texas. During the lunch break, a woman came up to me and asked an interesting question. She had an intriguing scenario to discuss. Having read all of my various books on the Men in Black phenomenon, her question went roughly like this: “Is it possible that the Men in Black are really the good guys, protecting us from the UFO phenomenon?” It’s a thought-provoking scenario and one that does, admittedly, pop up occasionally. She drew parallels with what happens when we take our pets to see the veterinarian.

Most people who have ever owned a pet and have had to take her or him to the vet will know how, very often, our furry friends get in a complete state of stress and even fear when they realize where they are going. I recall how, when I lived in the U.K., my dog Susie (a Cairn Terrier who lived to the ripe old age of 18), would shake when she had to get her shots. In fact, she would start to shake as soon as I pulled onto the parking area of the vet’s office. The reason was simple: on occasion, and just being a little dog and with not much muscle, it would hurt her when the needle went in. So, she associated the vet with pain. But, in reality, the vet was actually helping her. Of course, trying to explain that to Susie didn’t work at all! I did try, though.

Is it possible that something akin to this is going on with the Men in Black? That was the question posed to me. Well, I’m not convinced (yet…), but a reasonable case can be made that the scenario just might be the correct one. For example, I know of several people whose interest in the UFO subject, over time, went from being an interest to a full-blown obsession. Paranoia set in. They came to do nothing but dig into the UFO issue, almost on a 24/7 basis. Having fun, hanging out with friends, going out and having a good time on a Friday night, and knocking back a few beers went out of the window. I have even seen a couple lives crippled and ruined by Ufology – and I don’t exaggerate when I say that. We’re talking about mental illness, divorce, and even a cry-for-help-style suicide attempt. Thankfully, that doesn’t happen all the time, but it does on occasion.

There is something about the UFO subject that, now and then, seems to provoke negativity, paranoia and more to a severe degree. Which is why I strictly work approximately 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday (occasionally starting at 8am if I’m down to the wire…), and I keep evenings and weekends solely for a good time (which means soccer, beer, loud music, and girlfriends). “Balance” is the important factor in all of this. Sometimes, however, when it comes to UFOs, balance goes right out of the window and mania sets in. Are the MIB aware of this? And, if so, are they trying to warn us of the potential perils of getting into Ufology?

It’s interesting to note that the one man who arguably kicked off the MIB phenomenon in the early 1950s – Albert Bender – was someone who suffered greatly as he got deeper and deeper into the UFO mystery. Bender was an unusual character: he lived in the attic of his stepfather’s home in Bridgeport, Connecticut. He converted it into a kind of “Chamber of Horrors.” He began to delve deep into the world of the supernatural, even to the extent of creating an “altar” in the attic, as a means to call forth supernatural entities. His obsession with UFOs grew. By the time he was thirty, Bender had developed an irrational and overwhelming fear that he had cancer. Bender’s 1962 book, Flying Saucers and the Three Men, reveals that he clearly had Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Everything had to be exactly in its correct place. Bender would seethe and get frustrated if someone happened to move something in his room – even slightly. And then the MIB turned up.

At the height of his research into all things saucer-shaped, Bender was “visited” by a trio of shadowy, fedora-wearing Men in Black at his home in Bridgeport. For a while he ignored (or tried to ignore) the orders of the MIB to quit Ufology. Finally, and not long after, Bender really did quit Ufology (except to briefly return and write the aforementioned Flying Saucers and the Three Men). And guess what happened? I’ll tell you: Bender’s fear of cancer went away. He got a girlfriend, who soon became his wife. When Bender died in 2016, he was just six years short of being one hundred. Cancer did not take him at thirty, after all. Life was good. At least, it was specifically after he decided to heed the words of the MIB and he walked away from Ufology. So, you can see where I’m going with all of this. The Bender affair is just one of many that had a tragic and traumatic aspect to it, and which involved someone who had spiraled into a state of paranoia as a result of not finding balance in life. But, the MIB came along and, lo and behold, Bender’s life soon became a great one.

In this scenario, the MIB might be to us what the vet was to Susie. We’re utterly incapable of telling man’s best friends that a trip to the vet is actually for their own good. Likewise, perhaps, the clearly non-human Men in Black are incapable of properly getting across the message they want us to get. The result: it looks as if the MIB are threatening people. Maybe, though, they’re just doing their best to keep us away from UFO-driven realms filled with paranoia, obsession, fear and stress.

Ancient Structures Found On Mars and Ancient Face Carved Into Hill Top, Nov 2018, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Nov 9, 2018

Location of discovery: Mars

 http://www.gigapan.com/galleries/13331/gigapans/184111

I found a lot of ancient structures in a Mars photo today. These structures are long and almost resemble walls, but are buildings in long lines. I also discovered a face carved into a hill top, but is so ancient, it may be hard for some to see its details. This is 100% proof that ancient civilizations once flourished on the surface of Mars, and that NASA doesn't want you to know about it.

“The Bell” UFO filmed in the sky of Gothenburg, Sweden

A huge flying object was spotted in the sky of Gothenburg, Sweden. Witnesses of the UFO have filmed the object that slowly moves over the city.

The shape of the UFO is similar to an infamous top secret Nazi scientific technological device, called “Die Glocke”, a device made out of a hard, heavy metal" approximately 2.7 meters wide and 3.7 to 4.6 meters high, having a shape similar to that of a large bell.

Even it looks like the Gothenburg UFO has the shape of the UFO that crashed in Kecksburg, Pennsylvania on December 9, 1965. Government authorities swiftly confiscated the object and the public were told that the UFO crash never has happened despite a wealth of witnesses.

Below the intriguing footage of the Gothenburg UFO.

  

{ http://ufosightingshotspot.blogspot.com/ }

Unidentified submerged objects, or USOs, don’t quite get the attention that their flying brethren do, but that doesn’t make them any less mysterious and intriguing. USOs have captured the imagination of mystery hunters throughout history, and advances in submersible drones and satellite imagery has renewed interest in these aquatic anomalies.

While some of these unidentified submerged objects couldhave extraterrestrial or unknown origins, many of them turn out to be military submarines or other vessels engaging in clandestine activities where they shouldn’t be. One of the latest of these unexplained cases comes from Sweden, where several teens at a sailing camp near Stockholm spotted what certainly appears to be a submarine conning tower rising out of the bay. The youths reportedly first noticed large air bubbles disturbing the surface before the object rose from the water. Naturally, they caught it on video and posted it to social media.

Pretty hard to mistake that for anything else.

Micael Bydén Supreme Commander of Sweden’s Armed Forces told the press there is “no cause for concern linked to this incident” and that the armed forces have a “clear idea” of what the teens saw. “I am able to say with certainty that it was not a submarine,” Bydén told reporters. “There was no foreign underwater activity.”

An armed forces spokesperson stated that they have interviewed witnesses and that the information gleaned from those interviews remains confidential. In typical armed forces spokesperson fashion, Jesper Tengroth told Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter that the military will ultimately remain tight lipped on this anomalous sighting:

We can confirm that we have received information about an alleged observation in this area at that time. We will not comment on any further actions that we have taken or will take. We neither comment on results nor our view of alleged sightings.

Why all of the secrecy? Because let’s be honest: this is probably a Russian submarine and the Swedish armed forces are trying to keep a lid on it to prevent panic. As Cold War II continues to heat up, we’re likely going to see more unidentified objects in the skies and waters all around the world. Could recent UFO “disclosures” be a smokescreen to cover increased military activity worldwide?

My previous article was on the subjects of (A) how the UFO phenomenon might be a threat to our physical and mental health; and (B) why the Men in  Black might not be bad guys, after all. Rather, they just might actually be good guys trying to warn us of the hazards that the same phenomenon might pose. I thought I would follow-up that article with a two-part one which graphically demonstrates the dangers that UFO entities and their powers might pose. We have to go way back to November 25, 1991. On that date, Ray Boeche – a priest and a former State-Director with MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network) – had a very strange meeting at Lincoln, Nebraska’s Cornhusker Hotel. It was a meeting with a couple of guys who were working on a highly classified program within the U.S. Department of Defense. Now, with that said, I’ll hand the story over to Ray himself, who I extensively interviewed for my Final Events book. Ray told me:

“I found it interesting because they had contacted me at work, and I have no idea how they tracked me down there. But, they wanted to know if we could get together and have lunch to discuss something important. I met them for a brief period of time on that first meeting, and then they said: ‘We’d like to get together and have a longer conversation.’ I arranged a time and it was quite a lengthy discussion: probably three and a half hours. And that’s how it all came about. After the meetings, when I was able to verify that the men held the degrees they claimed to hold, and were, apparently, who they claimed to be, I was intrigued and excited at the possibility of having stumbled on a more or less untouched area which could be researched. But I was also cautious in terms of ‘why me?’

“Initially, I suppose I was apprehensive and curious. I had no way of knowing before our face-to-face meeting if there was any legitimacy to this at all. I wasn’t given any information at all before our meeting, just the indication that they were involved in areas of research I would find interesting, and that they had some concerns they wished to discuss with me. Both men were physicists; I’d guess they were probably in their early-to-mid fifties, and they were in a real moral dilemma. Both of them were Christians, and were working on a Department of Defense project that involved trying to contact the NHE’s [“Non-Human Entities,” as the pair called what most people refer to as “aliens”]. In fact, this was described to me as an ‘obsessive effort.’ And part of this effort was to try and control the NHE’s and use their powers in military weapons applications and in intelligence areas, such as remote-viewing and psychotronic weapons.

“They believed that the NHE’s were not extraterrestrial; but were some sort of demonic entities. And that regardless of how benevolent or beneficial any of the contact they had with these entities seemed to be, it always ended up being tainted, for lack of a better term, with something that ultimately turned out to be bad. There was ultimately nothing positive from the interaction with the NHE entities. They felt it really fell more under the category of some vast spiritual deception instead of UFOs and aliens. In the course of the whole discussion, it was clear that they really viewed this as having a demonic origin that was there to simply try and confuse the issue in terms of who they were, what they wanted, and what the source of the ultimate truth is. If you extrapolate from their take that these are demons in the biblical sense of the word, then what they would be doing here is trying to create a spiritual deception to fool as many people as possible. From what they told me, it seemed like someone had invoked something and it opened a doorway to let these things in. That’s certainly the impression they gave me.”

Ray told me that his informants said the “doorway” was opened by none other than Jack Parsons, a brilliant figure in 1930s-early 1950s rocketry. He was a man with a Top Secret clearance with the military, and a devotee of Aleister Crowley. Ray expanded on this: “They said that was the genesis of this. Was this a doorway that was opened by Parsons to allow these demonic entities in? Or did Parsons give someone else the idea that maybe someone in the government should look into this? That was one of their big concerns: that in order to try and accomplish some sort of military advantage, demonic things – masquerading as aliens – had been contacted and forces had been unleashed that were not going to be able to be controlled for very long; or, at least, were not going to be able to be bent to the will of whoever started this project. Satanic rituals, ritual magic and even human sacrifice were all mentioned as being linked with the project. They were convinced the work had to stop.

“They never revealed how it was all initiated in the beginning; but the situation today did, they said, go back to Parsons. I was never able to get an exact point of origin of these sorts of experiments, or of their involvement, and when they got started. But I did get the impression that because of what they knew and the information that they presented, they had been involved for at least several years; even if the project had gone on much longer. They were concerned that they had undertook this initially with the best of intentions; but then as things developed they saw a very negative side to it that wasn’t apparent earlier. So, that’s what leads me to think they had a relatively lengthy involvement.

“They didn’t just think that this was a spiritual deception; but that it was possibly something leading to a final deception. In their view – which, theologically, I don’t particularly hold – they viewed things much more like that of [Tim] LaHaye and [Jerry B.] Jenkins in the Left Behind book-series: the anti-Christ will appear, then we are fooled, and Armageddon will then be triggered. That seemed to be their personal feeling about the whole scenario.”

Ray added: “I tend to take the view that a lot of those prophecies in the Book of Revelations were fulfilled with Rome’s destruction of Jerusalem. I don’t think there is any way to deny that orthodox Christianity teaches a physical return of Christ; but that is always considered to be the church’s great hope: Christ’s returning, a triumphant return. So, from that point of view, the Left Behind mentality – that Armageddon is a terrible thing – and that you want to push off as long as possible, to me doesn’t really hold; at least in the historical sense. Christ’s eventual return is the culmination of this age and this world; so it’s not something to fear. It’s something to be welcomed. But it was viewed by the DoD like that, and as a final-battle scenario. Their other big fear in the whole thing was: if you have these types of entities who will present themselves as extraterrestrial beings, how is that going to affect the spiritual outlook of the people? Will it sway people from a belief in Christ? Would it have that sort of a spiritual effect?

“Their position was that these entities are the origin of a lot of the UFO reports; a lot of the abduction phenomena, and the cattle mutilations; and that they are able to interact physically with us in our world. I was never told how they knew, but the guys knew that there was wreckage of non-earthly origin at Roswell. And I remember asking them specifically in a later conversation: ‘How do you know this? And how does it happen that a demonic force can also interact physically?’ Their response was to me was: ‘You’re a pastor; you’ve studied theology. Go back to the Bible and look.’

“Well, that set me on months trying to piece this together in my own mind. Scripture refers to Satan as the prince of this world and the prince of the powers of the air. I deduced that there could be a precedent: a logical precedent based on scripture that demonic forces can in some way influence the physical world. So, given that that’s the case, could they create something? Could they somehow pluck matter from somewhere else – a different planet, a different galaxy that was so different from Earth that it’s going to be something recognized as not coming from here? Could they manufacture or create a physical object or wreckage – deliberately – to make us fall into the trap of believing that something extraterrestrial had fallen from outer space? A staged crash: to make us fall into the deception that they are extraterrestrials. That was the scientists’ conclusion. One of the things that made me believe there could be some sort of physical interaction is the mention of the Nephilim in Genesis in The Bible. Whatever these other worldly beings were – angels, fallen angels – they were able to interact physically and create some sort of progeny here on earth.

“Most of it was related to psychotronic weaponry and remote viewing; and even deaths by what were supposed to be psychic methods. They said that these entities are really the ones who were behind whatever actions the people working on the project thought they were able to perform themselves. It seemed that the project was allowed to assume that it had somehow technologically mastered the ability to do what the NHE’s could do: remote-viewing and psychotronics. But in actuality it was these entities doing it all the time, or allowing it to happen, for something that suited their deception. With both psychotronic weapons and remote-viewing, I was told that the DoD had not really mastered a technology to do that; they were allowed by the NHE’s to think that this is what they had done. But the NHE’s were always the causal factor.”

My previous article was on the subjects of (A) how the UFO phenomenon might be a threat to our physical and mental health; and (B) why the Men in  Black might not be bad guys, after all. Rather, they just might actually be good guys trying to warn us of the hazards that the same phenomenon might pose. I thought I would follow-up that article with a two-part one which graphically demonstrates the dangers that UFO entities and their powers might pose. We have to go way back to November 25, 1991. On that date, Ray Boeche – a priest and a former State-Director with MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network) – had a very strange meeting at Lincoln, Nebraska’s Cornhusker Hotel. It was a meeting with a couple of guys who were working on a highly classified program within the U.S. Department of Defense. Now, with that said, I’ll hand the story over to Ray himself, who I extensively interviewed for my Final Events book. Ray told me:

“I found it interesting because they had contacted me at work, and I have no idea how they tracked me down there. But, they wanted to know if we could get together and have lunch to discuss something important. I met them for a brief period of time on that first meeting, and then they said: ‘We’d like to get together and have a longer conversation.’ I arranged a time and it was quite a lengthy discussion: probably three and a half hours. And that’s how it all came about. After the meetings, when I was able to verify that the men held the degrees they claimed to hold, and were, apparently, who they claimed to be, I was intrigued and excited at the possibility of having stumbled on a more or less untouched area which could be researched. But I was also cautious in terms of ‘why me?’

“Initially, I suppose I was apprehensive and curious. I had no way of knowing before our face-to-face meeting if there was any legitimacy to this at all. I wasn’t given any information at all before our meeting, just the indication that they were involved in areas of research I would find interesting, and that they had some concerns they wished to discuss with me. Both men were physicists; I’d guess they were probably in their early-to-mid fifties, and they were in a real moral dilemma.

Study Offers Answers To The Behavior Of Cigar-Shaped UFO In Our Solar System

In October 2017, scientists observed a strange cigar-shaped interstellar object falling our solar system at an incredible speed through Pan-STARRS 1 telescope in Hawaii. The mysterious object then officially named Oumuamua, derived from a Hawaiian word that means a messenger who reaches out from the distant past. Researchers assumed that it was an ordinary asteroid or comet. However, they later realized that Oumuamua was ten times longer than it was wide. Adding to the mystery, was that it suddenly accelerated for no discernible astrophysical reason.

Now, a new paper from scientists at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics postulates that Oumuamua is a solar sail. The study asserts that it is an object that channels solar energy to propel itself through space. The hypothesis would explain why the strange object suddenly accelerated in our solar system.

The study notes the possibility that Oumuamua is a light sail floating as debris in interstellar space from advanced technological equipment. It stresses that this would account for the many anomalies of the object, including the unusual geometry inferred from its light-curve, its deviation from a Keplerian orbit in the absence of any sign of a cometary tail or spin-up torques, and its low thermal emission.

Oumuamua is the first object ever seen in our solar system originating outside of it. The ostensible behavior of Oumuamua, which observed the Earth briefly in October 2017 and suddenly fled our solar system at 196,000 miles per hour, is without a doubt what most remotely intelligent life form would do.
