Dr. Steven Greer on Disclosure UFOs, ETs - Coverups and more...

Thanks For Watching : Dr Steven Greer on Disclosure UFOs, ETs – Coverups and more… The world is about to change and you can be a part of it! We are calling for new witnesses to come forward and disclose what they know regarding the multitudes of cover ups that are happening all around us… UFO, Secrecy, Cover Up, Free Energy and more! The signs are everywhere.

From startlingly candid presidential candidates to recent NASA & military whistleblowers, the forces suppressing truth can no longer hold back the floodgates of disclosure. Dr. Steven Greer, the father of the Global Disclosure Movement, is thrilled to announce the ultimate campaign that ends illegal UFO and Free Energy Technology secrecy once and for all and embraces the beginning of a new civilization on Earth.

Following “Sirius”, one of the most successful crowdfunded documentaries in history, Dr. Greer and his team are producing Unacknowledged : An Expose of the Greatest Secret in Human History. “Unacknowledged” is named after the super- secret and illegal Unacknowledged Special Access Projects (USAPs) that deal with the UFO/ET issue and will be THE disclosure event that we’ve been waiting for …

 Archeologen hebben in een grot in de beroemde Mexicaanse ruïnestad van de Maya’s, Chichén Itzá, meer dan duizend jaar oude vaartuigen en andere Precolumbiaanse objecten ontdekt. Archeoloog Guillermo de Anda spreekt van “buitengewoon materiaal dat enorm goed bewaard is gebleven”.

De archeologen hadden de Balamkú-grot op het schiereiland Yucatán vorig jaar ontdekt op aanwijzing van omwonenden. Het bestaan van de grot, een uitgestrekt tunnelsysteem met verschillende zalen, was al langer bekend, maar niet gedocumenteerd. Bovendien was zij afgesloten, de toegang ertoe bevindt zich 24 meter onder de grond. De vorsers konden uiteindelijk binnengeraken via een amper halve meter hoge opening.

Watergod

“Wat wij aantroffen, was ongeschonden en ongelooflijk”, zegt archeoloog Guillermo de Anda. Ze ontdekten zeven offergaves, voornamelijk bestaande uit houders voor wierook en deels gebroken schepen uit keramiek met verkoolde resten, zaden, jade, mosselschelpen en kleine dierenbeenderen. De gevonden objecten stammen vermoedelijk uit de achtste tot de tiende eeuw. Volgens de Anda zijn het plengoffers voor de watergod Tláloc. De gaves doen vermoeden dat de regio destijds een lange tijd van droogte moet hebben gekend.

Nog maar een derde onderzocht

Tot dusver hebben de archeologen ongeveer een derde van de grot onderzocht. Een deel ervan staat onder water, waardoor voor verdere exploratie gedoken zal moeten worden. 

De grot ligt ongeveer 2,7 kilometer ten oosten van de piramide Kukulkán, het hoofdgebouw van het tot het Unesco-werelderfgoed behorende complex. In 2015 werd onder Kukulkán een “cenote”, een met zoet water gevuld hol, ontdekt. Yucatán is bezaaid met zulke grotten, die de kalksteenbodem doorboren en soms over kilometers afstand met elkaar verbonden zijn. Bij het al lang uitgestorven Maya-volk golden cenotes als heilige plaatsen, die gebruikt werden voor religieuze ceremonieën.

 De 50 meest vervuilende steden ter wereld liggen op drie na allemaal in dezelfde twee landen. Dat blijkt uit een nieuw rapport van Greenpeace en AirVisual, een bedrijf dat metingen van de luchtkwaliteit uitvoert. Grote boosdoeners zijn India en China.

Vooral India maakt een slechte beurt. Maar liefst 22 van de steden in de top 30 liggen daar, inclusief de meest vervuilde stad ter wereld: Gurugram. Dat is een van de grootste satellietsteden van New Delhi, in het noorden van het land. In Gurugram ligt de gemiddelde luchtkwaliteitsindex bijna drie keer hoger dan wat als gezond beschouwd wordt.

China

China heeft 5 steden in de top 30, maar ook 17 steden tussen de 30ste en de 50ste plaats. Het land maakt wel vooruitgang in vergelijking met vroeger. Volgens het rapport zou de gemiddelde concentratie aan vervuilende stoffen - het rapport focust op deeltjes met een afmeting van PM2,5 of 2,5 micrometer (0,000 002 5 meter) omdat die de grootste impact op onze gezondheid hebben - tussen 2017 en 2018 teruggelopen zijn met 12 procent. De hoofdstad Peking is zelfs uit de top 100 gevallen van meest vervuilde steden, na inspanningen van de overheid om de luchtvervuiling er onder controle te krijgen.

Enkele landen in de buurt van China zien dan weer een slechtere evolutie. Indonesië, Zuid-Korea, Vietnam en Thailand zien hun cijfers flink achteruitgaan. In Bangkok bijvoorbeeld, werden in januari vliegtuigen uitgestuurd die het kunnen doen regenen om de vervuiling in de lucht te doen neerslaan.

Dichter bij ons maken vooral Boznië en Herzegovina, Macedonië en Polen een slechte beurt. Samen maken zij de volledige top 10 uit van meest vervuilde steden in Europa. Op 6 Italiaanse steden na – onder meer Venetië – bestaat de top 50 overigens exclusief uit Oost-Europese steden.

Oostrozebeke

De eerste Belgische gemeente in de lijst is Oostrozebeke. Wereldwijd vind je die terug op de 822ste plaats, in de Europese lijst op de 158ste plaats. Dat is geen verrassing. Oostrozebeke staat al sinds 2005 bekend als slechtst scorend in ons land op het vlak van luchtkwaliteit. Oorzaak is dat het meetpunt vlakbij spaanplatenfabrikant Unilin (het vroegere Spano) staat - in een gebied met veel industrie - en vlakbij de gewestweg N385. Die laatste wordt vaak gebruikt door vrachtverkeer. Unilin nam intussen maatregelen om de luchtkwaliteit te verbeteren, onder meer door het plaatsen van filters. En de gemeente zelf beloofde in januari vorig jaar om te investeren in “ecologische maatregelen”. In totaal waren er 46 Belgische gemeenten bij het onderzoek betrokken.

Als alle landen in hun geheel worden bekeken, staat België op de 52ste plaats. Daarmee zijn we bij de slechtste leerlingen van de klas in West-Europa en doen we net iets minder goed dan onze buurlanden Frankrijk, Duitsland en Nederland.

Overlijdens

Volgens het rapport zal luchtverontreiniging volgend jaar wereldwijd 7 miljoen voortijdige overlijdens veroorzaken en een enorme impact hebben op de economie. Wereldwijd zou de kost oplopen tot 225 miljard dollar (199 miljoen euro, red.) aan verloren arbeid en biljoenen in medische kosten, zo staat er in het rapport te lezen.

Voor het rapport werden de gegevens van meer dan 6.000 steden en gemeente ter wereld opgemeten en vergeleken. Opmerkelijk: er zijn vooral data uit Europa, Azië en Noord-Amerika voor handen. Onder meer in Afrika, Zuid-Amerika en Rusland zijn er amper meetgegevens over de luchtverontreiniging beschikbaar.

Here is an old video of a UFO over Amsterdam that I haven't seen before. This is really a breathtaking video of a triangle craft, and yes, it does appear to be a TR3B. The UFO also has a yellow rectangle that is a separate part of the ship. I darkened the photos below to better see the detail of the UFO. Sure this was taken back in 2013, but damn its really mind-blowing video! I doubt very much that its a TR3B, because no pilot would be stupid enough to fly this low out in broad daylight showing it off to the public. I do however believe it to be an alien craft.

Date of sighting: February 3, 2019
Location of sighting: Germany

These white orbs seen over Germany a few weeks ago, have been seen over Europe for over 5 decades. They are called Foo Fighters. They use to fly along side fighter planes and bombers as they flew on missions. They observed the war close up to see just how close humanity was to destroying itself. The fact that these large Foo Fighters are showing up again...worries me, because they may be observing a very destructive force on the ground or below the ground that could potentially threaten the existence of humanity again. So the real question is...what is Germany secretly working on that attracted these orbs?

 Of buitenaards leven bestaat, weten we nog steeds niet. Wel slaagden wetenschappers van het Amerikaanse ruimtevaartagentschap NASA erin om een buitenaardse vorm van DNA te creëren, genaamd Hachimoji. En Hachimoji kan zo maar even tot een doorbraak leiden.

NASA’s ontdekking suggereert immers dat andere vormen van DNA zodus ook andere levensvormen, perfect kunnen bestaan. En dankzij de nieuwe DNA-vorm hebben onderzoekers alweer een beter idee naar wat ze precies op zoek zijn.

Kern van ons bestaan
Voor wie tijdens de biologielessen vooral sliep: een korte les. Het menselijk DNA ziet er als volgt uit: het bestaat uit twee lange strengen van nucleotiden die in de vorm van een dubbele helix of wenteltrap met elkaar vervlochten zijn. De nucleotiden zijn dan weer verbindingen bestaande uit kleinere bouwstenen of basen: adenine, cytosine, guanine en thymine. Kort samengevat is DNA de kern van ons bestaan, letterlijk en figuurlijk.

Waarom bovenstaande biologieles belangrijk is voor Hachimoji? Zonder een stukje menselijk DNA zou hij niet bestaan. Het Hachimoji-DNA bevat immers dezelfde vier ‘ingrediënten’ of basen (adenine, cytosine, guanine en thymine), maar daarbovenop telt het unieke DNA nog eens twee dubbele verbindingen: purine en pyrimidine. Het resultaat? DNA dat maar liefst dubbel zoveel ‘ingrediënten’ telt: acht. 

E.T.

 UNIVERSAL E.T.

Laboratoriumversie 

Uiteraard is de alien van NASA slechts een laboratoriumversie, en eentje die niet eens vingers heeft, laat staan de woorden “E.T. phone home” uitspreekt. Toch is het een veelbelovend experiment waarmee de wetenschappers aantonen dat een andere vorm van leven – inclusief andere bouwstenen – perfect mogelijk is. Verder benadrukken ze graag het belang van de financiering voor grondig onderzoek naar buitenaards leven. Dergelijk onderzoek is noodzakelijk menen de wetenschappers. Met hun experiment hopen ze die noodzakelijkheid ook aan te tonen.

NASA-veteraan: “Ik zag een alien babbelen met astronauten” - HLN.be

Clark McClelland in de space shuttle, of het gaat om een authentieke foto, is niet duidelijk.


 NASA  Clark McClelland in de space shuttle, of het gaat om een authentieke foto, is niet duidelijk.
 De wonderen zijn de wereld nog niet uit, want als we Clark McClelland mogen geloven, dan heeft een alien een ritje gemaakt met de space shuttle. De alien zou ook gebabbeld hebben met astronauten terwijl hij dacht dat niemand keek.

McClelland beweert 35 jaar voor NASA te hebben gewerkt, en vooralsnog heeft de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie die bewering niet weerlegd. McClelland zegt dat hij een missie van de space shuttle aan het monitoren was vanuit het Kennedy Space Center toen hij iets zag wat hij eigenlijk niet mocht zien: een 2,7 meter lange, magere alien die in de space shuttle een gezellige babbel sloeg met astronauten.
De NASA-veteraan beweert ook een ruimteschip gezien te hebben vlakbij de shuttle. “Ik herken een ruimteschip wanneer ik er een zie”, aldus McClelland. “Aliens lopen rond op onze aarde”, besluit hij.

Velen beweren dat McClelland ze niet allemaal meer op een rij heeft, maar sommige ‘believers’ hechten veel belang aan zijn uitspraken. McClellands website ’Stargate Chronicles” geeft enkele, laten we zeggen, interessante inzichten.

Elon Musk Wants to Build a “Permanently Occupied Human Base” on the Moon

OVER THE MOON

Elon Musk Wants to Build a “Permanently Occupied Human Base” on the Moon

"Maybe there's something beyond the space station."

To The ISS And Beyond

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk hasn’t gotten much sleep this weekend. But true to form, he’s already dreaming of something far more ambitious.

“To be frank, I’m a little emotionally exhausted,” Musk said at a post-launch press conference at four o’clock in the morning on Saturday. “Because that was super stressful. But it worked, so far.”

The private space company has achieved a lot within the last 48 hours. Their futuristic passenger spacecraft Crew Dragon launched early Saturday morning from the Kennedy Space Center and successfully docked autonomously with the International Space Station some 26 hours later.

If all goes well, two astronauts will fly on board the spacecraft to the ISS as soon as July.

Beyond Earth’s Orbit

But, as expected, Musk has much bigger plans — for traveling to beyond Earth’s orbit. “We should have a base on the moon, like a permanently occupied human base on the moon, and then send people to Mars,” Musk said at the press event. “Maybe there’s something beyond the space station, but we’ll see.”

The Starship Enterprise

Earlier this year, Musk admitted that he wanted to get to the Moon – and “as fast as possible,” he wrote in a Jan 31 tweet.

The vehicle that could fulfill that dream: the stainless-steel monstrosity dubbed Starship. But getting Starship to the Moon will be a much harder feat to pull off than any NASA project ever.

“It won’t be easy for us or SpaceX,” Walt Engelund, director of Space Technology and Exploration Directorate at NASA, told Business Insider in a February interview.

But one step at a time. “We’ve got to focus on getting [the Crew Dragon missions] right, for sure. That’s the priority,” Musk admitted at Saturday’s press event.

“But then, after that, maybe something beyond low-Earth orbit.”

Moon landing PHOTOS reignite conspiracy theories… again

Moon landing PHOTOS reignite conspiracy theories… again

Moon landing PHOTOS reignite conspiracy theories… again

A UFO conspiracist has uncovered what he believes is proof that the moon landings were fake, although his detective work has drawn criticism.

“Does Astronaut's visor reflection show a stagehand on the Apollo fake Moon set?" is the question posed by Streetcap1, who shared his recent discovery on YouTube.

The photo in question is taken from the Apollo 17 mission, which took place in late 1972. Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt spent about 22 hours exploring the surface and were the last humans to walk on the moon.

5a118830fc7e932a528b4567.jpg

The moon landings have been the source of scepticism for conspiracy theorists ever since astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin set foot on the moon in 1969.

According to Streetcap1, who took a picture of the NASA image using his “software,” the astronaut’s visor reflection appears to show a man “not wearing a spacesuit,” standing on the moon.

"It looks like a man back in the early 1970s, long hair, you know,” he said. "He is wearing some sort of, I don't know, waistcoat type thing… one leg there, with one shoe, another leg and a shadow of that figure presumably.”

Streetcap1 says he wasn’t a moon landing disbeliever until he came across the suspicious image. "I sort of think we did make it to the Moon, but this is starting to make me think if we did because where is this guy's spacesuit?"

Streetcap1’s video divided opinion, with some people surprised to have their suspicions raised.

“Pretty Earth-shaking for a believer in the landing,” a commentator said.

“I vote astronaut... the shadow on the ground looks more like an astronaut in a bulky suit,” said another.

However, other photographs taken from the Apollo 17 mission suggest the “stagehand” in the helmet reflection is likely the other astronaut.

One image shared on the NASA website shows Cernan on the moon, with another astronaut clearly seen in his helmet’s reflection.

5a11c5d0fc7e932f728b4567.jpg

As Cernan and Schmitt performed three moonwalks over three days, pilot Ronald E. Evans stayed orbiting the moon during this time, in the command service module of the spacecraft.

Examining NASA’s history site, which contains thousands of images from the mission, along with the accompanying transcript of footage taken on the moon, the astronaut pictured is likely Schmitt.

An image shared on NASA’s site shows Schmitt standing next to the large boulder featured in the suspicious image. It was taken by Cernan. If Schmitt turned toward Cernan, he would have been in an ideal position for Cernan’s reflection to be captured in Schmitt’s helmet.

5a11c651fc7e936f728b4567.jpg

Cameras

The Apollo 17 mission aimed to capture precise images for mapping and examining the lunar surface. Multiple cameras were used on the surface of the moon, meaning there were many different cameras that could have captured the astronaut with the helmet reflection.

The astronauts had three battery powered 70-millimeter Hasselblad cameras which were attached to their chests, the Lunar Planetary Institute reports. They also carried a 16-millimeter Maurer Data Acquisition Camera that could be handheld or mounted to the lunar module and lunar roving vehicle.

A lunar surface TV camera was also used and operated from three positions, either mounted on a tripod, or on the modularized equipment storage assembly (MESA). “The camera could be aimed and controlled by the astronauts or remotely controlled by personnel in the mission control center,” LPI  said.

NASA doesn’t comment on specific moon hoax theories, but it has said in the past that it did go to the moon.

Humanity’s footprint on Antarctica mapped forthe first time

Humanity’s footprint on Antarctica mapped for the first time

BY MIHAI ANDREI

Buildings alone cover more than 390 000 square meters, while the visual footprint (the areas from which human activity can be seen) extends to more than 93 000 square kilometers.

This is Australia’s Davis research station, Antarctica.

Image credits: Shaun Brooks.

Antarctica is the world’s southernmost continent. It’s the coldest, driest, and windiest continent, and has the highest average elevation of all the continents — an unfriendly polar desert that only hosts a few creatures which have adapted to survive these extreme conditions. Antarctica, however, is no longer pristine.

At any given moment, there are over 1,000 humans in Antarctica, generally engaged in scientific research. However, during some months, the number of researchers in Antarctica goes closer to 5,000. While much of this research contributes to our understanding and conservation of Antarctica, it still has an environmental impact. Considering that an estimated 38,000 tourists visit the frozen continent every year, it seems quite likely that humans are having quite an impact in Antarctica.

However, this impact hasn’t been thoroughly quantified — until now.

In a new study published in Nature Sustainability, PhD student Shaun Brooks focused on the area that humans changed. He explains that measuring the area impacted by humans was important for Antarctic conservation and environmental management.

“Although the 53 countries that have signed the Antarctic Treaty agreed to protect the Antarctic environment, until now there has been only limited data on the spatial extent of human activity on the continent,” Mr Brooks said.

“Our research shows that human impacts are the greatest on land that is also the most environmentally sensitive – ice free areas within a few kilometres of the coast.”

The international treaty he is referring to mandates Antarctic activities. The treaty prohibits military activities and mineral mining of any kind. It also prohibits nuclear explosions and nuclear waste disposal, but allows scientific research, and protects the continent’s biodiversity.

About 98% of Antarctica is covered by ice, but the remaining 2% hosts a rich biodiversity — Antarctica’s only true biodiversity. However, whenever humans set up camp, it’s almost always in or just outside of this iceless area.

“Ice-free land supports the continent’s greatest diversity of flora and fauna, including iconic species such as Adelie penguins, and provides the most accessible areas for marine animals that breed on land,” Brooks continues. “We found that 81 per cent of the buildings in the Antarctic are located within just 0.44 per cent of the land that is free of ice.”

With a growing number of researchers, and increasing pressure from tourism, the environment pressure is also certain to increase. Brooks says this type of research is vital to ensuring that the fragile balance in Antarctica isn’t

“There is a growing tension between the increasing pressure for access to the continent and international commitments to protect the Antarctic environment. Hopefully, our research can help to inform a sustainable balance between these competing imperatives,” Brooks concluded.

The study has been published in Nature.

China Plans to Launch a Mars Rover Next Year

RACE TO MARS

China Plans to Launch a Mars Rover Next Year

The rover will orbit around Mars, then "land on it and probe it."

Mars 2020

After landing the world’s first rover on the far side of the Moon early this year, China already has far more ambitious plans in the works: sending a rover to Mars.

“Over the past 60 years, we’ve made a lot of achievements, but there is still a large distance from the world space powers,” chief designer of China’s lunar exploration program Wu Wiren said ahead of the opening of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, CNN reports. “Next year, we will launch a Mars probe, which will orbit around the Mars, land on it and probe it.”

Race To Mars

China’s space program has rapidly picked up pace. Its Yutu 1 rover landed on the Moon in 2013. A second rover landed on the far side some six years later, and a third rover will follow at the end of this year, with the goal of returning to Earth with at least four pounds of lunar soil and rock samples.

But increasingly, China’s space agency has been focusing its efforts on the Red Planet. This weekend, China opened its first Mars simulation base in Qinghai Province at a location known to have similarities to the Martian surface. The base can house 60 people in its futuristic capsules.

Catching Up

China won’t be the first nation to explore Mars. NASA, for one, has a considerable head start: Its Jet Propulsion Lab has so far sent four remotely operated rovers to the Martian surface to look for signs of life gather scientific data about the distant world.

Both NASA and the European Space Agency each plan to send new rovers to Mars as soon as next year. But China is making a substantial effort to catch up.

CHINA OPENS ITS FIRST MARS SIMULATION BASE

CHINA OPENS ITS FIRST MARS SIMULATION BASE

ECNS.CN

Visitors Welcome

The Chinese city of Mang’ai is one of the most Mars-like places on Earth, featuring a similar climate and landscape to the Red Planet.

That made it the perfect setting for a newly opened Mars simulation base that China hopes will draw tourists — and maybe even help humanity reach the real Mars.

Growing Potatoes

China began construction on the base in June. According to a July report by the South China Morning Post, the plan for the base includes a “Mars community” and a “Mars camp” designed to educate and entertain the public, while also providing a place for scientific research and simulation training.

Roughly $22.3 million later, the 53,330-square-meter base is now complete, welcoming its first public attendees on Friday.

The Global Times claims that the project’s founder, Gao Junling, told the newspaper that visitors to the base will have a chance to “immerse themselves in the environment and try to solve problems they might face on Mars, such as planting potatoes on Mars for food supply and solar power generation.”

Next-Best Thing

As Mars-like as the setting of China’s Mars simulation base might be, it’s still far more hospitable to humans than Mars — anyone visiting the Red Planet will need to contend with its low air pressure, stronger radiation, and regular sandstorms, Peking University space science professor Jiao Weixin told The Global Times.

Still, if the base can provide researchers with an approximation of Mars for their experiments, while also getting the public — and young people, in particular — excited about space exploration, it could have a positive role to play in shaping humanity’s space-faring future.

Are We Really the Smartest Kid on the Cosmic Block?

Are We Really the Smartest Kid on the Cosmic Block?

It’s unlikely, and if we keep thinking otherwise, we might be missing some important clues about the existence of extraterrestrial life

By Abraham Loeb

Are We Really the Smartest Kid on the Cosmic Block?

Credit: Alberto Ghizzi Panizza Getty Images

It is unclear how many intelligent civilizations have arisen in the Milky Way galaxy so far, but if some have, a pressing question comes to mind: were they or are they more intelligent than we are?

When reading the morning newspaper, it is difficult to avoid the thought that our own intelligence bar is not particularly high nor difficult to surpass. We fight among ourselves in “lose-lose” situations; we do not promote long-term solutions over short-term fixes; and we have been broadcasting our existence to the galaxy with radio waves for over a century without worrying whether about whether there are any predators or competitors in outer space. (If it’s the latter, they might have been ignoring us because we appear so incompetent.)

If other civilizations do exist, one key in becoming aware of them is whether we are intelligent enough to adequately interpret their signals or to identify a piece of their technology if it should appear in our solar system. One fact is clear: if we assign a zero prior probability for such evidence coming our way, as some scientists did in the case of ‘Oumuamua by invoking the principle “it’s never aliens,” we will indeed never find any. We will be like ostriches burying our heads in the sand.

In fact, this attitude may be one sign that our intelligence isn’t very impressive—that the human race as a whole suffers from the Dunning-Kruger effect, in which those with mediocre abilities insist that they’re unusually talented or smart.

How can our civilization mature? The same way kids do: by leaving home, going out into the neighborhood, meeting others and comparing notes with them. In other words, we can develop a balanced perspective on our current technological accomplishments by engaging in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). Since our own technological development accelerates exponentially with an e-folding time of a few years, it is difficult to imagine what a much more advanced technology crafted by a civilization that had lived for a cosmic timescale—billions of such e-folding times—would look like.

As natural as this suggestion to search might seem, however it is evident that SETI faces a hostile mainstream culture in astronomy. The simple proposal to consider the possibility that ‘Oumumua is technological debrisas an explanation for its unusual properties, for example was met with controversy on social media.

True, SETI carries non-scientific baggage related to unrealistic aspects of the science fiction literature and unsubstantiated reports about unidentified flying objects (UFOs)—something SETI researchers sometimes refer to as the “giggle factor.” But at the same time, it would be a strategic mistake for observers to restrict the interpretation of data from their telescopes and not search for “other kids in our neighborhood” just because of this baggage. The existence of extraterrestrial intelligence has nothing to do with the credibility of science fiction stories of UFO reports. The problem with adopting this wrong attitude is that it delays scientific progress. Grant applicants are frequently asked to forecast the scientific discoveries they will make if their application is approved—but by bracketing the range of possibilities in advance, we might never discover the unexpected. Instead we cultivate a scientific culture that tends to replicate what we already know.

History teaches us that this is a mistake. The search for extrasolar planets encountered mainstream resistance in its early days. Observing proposals to search for low-hanging fruits, such as “hot Jupiters”—which are easiest to detect—were rejected by conservative committees of telescope-time allocation that argued that such planets should not exist in nature based on what we know about the solar system. But discovery forged ahead as some observers dared to challenge this prejudice, demonstrating that hot Jupiters are abundant. There was 40-year delay, however, given that the first theoretical proposal to do such a search was made by Otto Struve as early as in 1952.

Hence, an obvious obstacle to identifying our neighbors is the tendency to limit our imagination to what we already know. But this should not necessarily remain the case in the future. What we imagine for extraterrestrial life should not be solely defined by the natural chemical and geological processes that took place spontaneously on Earth. We could, for example produce synthetic life in the laboratory under a broader range of conditions than those with which we are familiar. Metaphorically, we could bake new kinds of cakes using the same ingredients, expanding the book of recipes handed to us by Mother Earth.

Realizing that life can exist under new conditions will improve our forecasts for where to search for it in space and how to interpret our findings, in just the same way that the laws of physics—which were first revealed in laboratory experiments—allowed astrophysicists to study the universe billions of light years away.

An important survival skill in the company of unknown neighbors is to listen before speaking out. Given our sloppy behavior in transmitting signals to outer space without restraint, we can only hope that we have not become the laughingstock of our galactic neighborhood by now. But even if we have, we can still get our act together and do better in the future. In order to know how to behave, we should find out first who is on our street by searching with our best telescopes for unusual electromagnetic flashes, industrial pollution of planetary atmospheres, artificial light or heat, artificial space debris or something completely unexpected.

Fortunately, we possess instruments that are sensitive enough to find out not only whether we have neighbors but also whether they have noticed us already.

Planet 9 hypothesis gets a boost

Planet 9 hypothesis gets a boost

A large, unknown Planet 9 in our solar system continues to elude astronomers. But a new review article in Physics Reports explains why some scientists still think they’ll find it.

Work by artist showing dark crescent planet, far from tiny sun, against background of Milky Way.

Does a large Planet 9 – a hypothesized planet several times the mass of Earth in the distant outer reaches of the solar system – really exist? That question is still a topic of heated debate among astronomers. Some think a large Planet 9 can explain the weird orbits of some of the smaller known bodies in the Kuiper Belt. Others think that those orbits might be caused by multiple unknown smaller bodies instead.

Several astronomers recently reviewed the evidence for Planet 9 in an article published in February 2019 by Physics Reports. This peer-reviewed journal aims to publish long and deep reviews – more extensive than just literature surveys – on timely topics in physics. The article is called The planet nine hypothesis, and the astronomers who wrote it are still very optimistic that Planet 9 will eventually be found and confirmed. According to co-author Fred Adams at the University of Michigan:

The strongest argument in favor of Planet 9 is that independent lines of evidence can all be explained by a proposed new planet with the same properties. In other words, there are multiple reasons to believe that Planet 9 is real, not just one.

From the review article in Physics Reports:

Over the course of the past two decades, observational surveys have unveiled the intricate orbital structure of the Kuiper Belt, a field of icy bodies orbiting the sun beyond Neptune. In addition to a host of readily-predictable orbital behavior, the emerging census of trans-Neptunian objects displays dynamical phenomena that cannot be accounted for by interactions with the known eight-planet solar system alone.

Diagrams showing the calculated orbit of Planet 9 in the outer solar system – much farther out than Neptune – and estimated size compared to the other planets.

Planet 9 – so-called since Pluto is no longer officially considered a major planet – was first hypothesized by astronomers Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown of Caltech three years ago. Its existence could explain the odd orbits of some objects in the Kuiper Belt known as trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs). The orbits of these small bodies are clustered together in a way that suggests to some astronomers that a larger and more distant world (a Planet 9) has been tugging on them with its relatively strong gravity.

Mike Brown explained that the new review paper does not prove Planet 9’s existence. But, he said:

… it does indicate that the hypothesis rests upon a solid foundation.

In a previous paper published on January 22, 2019, in The Astronomical Journal, astronomers calculated that the likelihood of Planet 9 not existing was only 1 in 500.

If real, Planet 9 is estimated to be about five to 10 times the mass of Earth, possibly making it similar to super-Earth-type exoplanets – larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune. If it exists, Planet 9 may be on an elongated orbit, taking it up to 400 times the distance of Earth from the sun; that is very far away! The orbit is also calculated to be 15 to 20 degrees off the main orbital plane in which most of the other planets orbit.

Drawing of orbits of 6 Trans-Neptunian Objects shows them clustered.

The orbits of 6 extreme trans-Neptunian objects (in magenta) are mysteriously aligned in one direction, a configuration which can be explained by the presence of a Planet 9, according to some astronomers.

Image via Caltech/R. Hurt (IPAC).

Planet 9 has not been easy to find – assuming it’s actually there – so how long might it be before it is finally found? Adams thinks that, within the next 10 to 15 years, astronomers will either confirm that Planet 9 exists or refute it via the data. He said:

With its proposed properties, Planet 9 is right on the edge of being observable. But this is a very dim object in a very big sky. Since we don’t know exactly where it is, you have to survey the whole sky, or at least large portions of it, in order to find the planet.

Over the course of the next 10 years, we will have deeper and deeper – which means more sensitive – sky surveys. So I think by 2030 we will have seen it or will have a better idea of where it is. Of course, it’s also possible that by then we could also have alternate explanations for the observed orbital anomalies.

Juliette Becker is a doctoral candidate from University of Michigan’s Department of Astronomy and a co-author on the new review paper about Planet 9. She thinks that discovering Planet 9 would help answer various mysteries in the solar system, including the origin of the rocky object labeled 2015 BP519 and nicknamed Caju. This object is one of the TNOs thought to be gravitationally affected by Planet 9. It is only 340 miles (550 kms) in diameter and is on a highly eccentric and inclined orbit. She said:

Planet 9 is a really good explanation for 2015 BP519. The physics works perfectly. However, until we see Planet 9 in an image and are sure it’s there, I don’t feel like we’ve truly solved the mystery of its origin. The presence of Planet 9 would beautifully and coherently answer several seemingly unrelated open questions about the solar system. I look forward to the day we either see it or rule it out so that we can conclusively answer these questions.

By the way, there is even a theory that Planet 9 might be an exoplanet – such as a super-Earth – that was “stolen” by the sun from a nearby star. So you see that astronomers truly are perplexed about the orbits of these outer solar system bodies. They are casting around for ideas to explain them.

If a Planet 9 is found, whatever its origin, it will be one of the most exciting space discoveries in history. Since Pluto lost its major planet status in 2006, Neptune has been considered the most distant large planet from the sun in our solar system. If that’s not the case, if another large planet – a Planet 9 – exists, it’ll provide astronomers with an unprecedented opportunity to learn more about how our solar system originated and evolved.

Artist’s concept of the size of Earth compared to the super-Earth 55 Cancri e. If Planet 9 exists, it may be similar to this distant exoplanet.

Bottom line: Finding Planet 9 – if it really exists – is still a difficult task for astronomers, but the new study in Physics Reports reflects astronomers’ continued optimism that it will be found in the relatively near future.

Automakers, Long the Leaders in Robotics, See Other Industries Catch Up

Automakers, Long the Leaders in Robotics, See Other Industries Catch Up

Shipments to non-automotive companies grew 41 percent. 

One sign that robots are increasingly capable of human tasks? Companies are buying a lot more them: Some 35,880 robots were shipped to North American companies last year, according to new data from the Association of Advancing Automation, seven percent more than 2017, setting a new record. In particular, non-automotive companies picked up the pace of automation, with shipments growing 41 percent.

nov-16-2017-17-34-00gif.gif?auto=format%2Ccompress&gifq=35&rect=%2C%2C%2C&w=650

Robot purchases picked up in a variety of industries except for, notably, the auto industry, which has traditionally been at the forefront of automated assembly (car companies still account for a little more than half of robotics purchases, according to the AAA’s data). Food and consumer good companies picked up their pace of automation the most, with shipments up 48 percent. Plastics, life sciences, and electronics companies all put more robots to work in 2018 as well.

“While the automotive industry has always led the way in implementing robotics here in North America, we are quite pleased to see other industries continuing to realize the benefits of automation,” said Jeff Burnstein, President of the Association for Advancing Automation, in a statement released with the report.

Robots are simply getting better: The World Economic Forum estimates that robots or automation will be capable of replicating more than half of workplace tasks by 2025, including 28 percent of tasks that involve decision-making, up from about 19 percent today. As 5G networks begin to roll out over the next two years, robots will also benefit from significantly from the extra bandwidth and latency improvements, making them much more dextrous and quick-to-react to their surroundings.

jobs automation Automation is projected to create a lot more jobs than it eliminates, but there is a catch. 

The job market is particularly strong, with unemployment hitting the lowest level it’s been at in nearly half a century, as the Wall Street Journal reported Friday. That’s finally starting to translate into stiff competition to find even relatively “low-skill” workers to fill jobs, which can drive up the economic incentive to automate, because the savings-per-worker is greater.

Check out the latest video from the Inverse YouTube channel 🔥📺🔥:

Inverse logoLouisville Air Pollution: An Maybe-Brilliant Idea to Fix It

As always, the debate about how worried we need to be about this trend rages. As these trends — better, smarter, robots and machines capable of doing more — continue, some have argued that it could create a “barbell” economy, i.e. an economy where jobs are concentrated on low-paying and high-paying extremes instead of there being a large middle class.

The Brookings Institute published this month an alarming paper suggesting that automation’s job displacement will be regionally concentrated. In the future, life will be particularly difficult for people in cities with fewer than 100,000 people and in rural areas. In some regions, almost half of the jobs people have may be susceptible to automation.

Then again, people have always feared that the robots are coming for our jobs. And just because the tech is there, doesn’t mean replacing a person with a cheaper robot is always going to be preferable. As the economist Oren Cass recently pointed out to the New Yorker’s Jill Lepore, just because parents can put their kids on an autonomously driven school buses doesn’t mean they will.

Cultural resistance to robots may provide some measure of comfort in the short term, but, unfortunately, it may only be a matter of time before robots get pretty good at babysitting, too.

Des OVNI en formation triangulaire auraient été filmés par l’ISS

Des OVNI en formation triangulaire auraient été filmés par l’ISS

La retransmission en direct de la Station spatiale internationale par la NASA a été interrompue après que quatre anomalies aient traversé l’objectif de la caméra. Ces OVNI formaient un triangle.

La NASA a lancé la navette spatiale STS-106 depuis le Kennedy Space Center le 8 septembre 2000. Le but de la mission était de faire voler la navette spatiale Atlantis vers la Station spatiale internationale en vue de manœuvrer de manière permanente le satellite à orbite basse. Cependant, il y a eu un moment qui a retenu l’attention des théoriciens du complot.

La série « Secret Space » diffusée sur Amazon Prime a révélé que quelque chose de bizarre s’était passé pendant la diffusion en direct de cet événement.

Jeff Challender, observateur passionné du ciel et présentateur, a expliqué en détail ce qui s’était passé au cours de cette émission diffusée en 2017 : « STS-106 était l’avant-dernière mission à destination d’une station spatiale sans pilote. »

« Le cosmonaute Yuri Malenchenko et l’astronaute Edward Lu ont effectué une seule sortie dans l’espace. »

« Les deux scientifiques ont effectué les dernières connexions de câble entre le module Zarya et le tout nouveau module de service, nommé Zvesda. »

« L’équipage a également activé les installations sanitaires sur Zvesda. »

M. Challender a ensuite détaillé l’étrange événement survenu le 18 septembre 2000.

Il a expliqué : « Vers 21 h 47, la caméra a été dirigée vers le sud-ouest en direction du Canada. »

« L’équipage était en train de se préparer à atterrir le lendemain et a échangé des messages verbaux de temps en temps. »

« Mais lorsque la caméra de l’ISS a basculé, quatre anomalies ont été repérées. Elles formaient un triangle parfait. »

« Ces objets voyageaient entre la navette et la surface de la Terre. »

Cette affaire a fortement intéressé les ufologues du monde entier. Toutefois, les sceptiques ont rapidement prétendu qu’il s’agissait, en réalité, de trois satellites de la Marine Américaine.

Cependant, M. Challender n’est pas d’accord avec cette dernière théorie.

Il a ajouté : « Il est impossible que ces objets soient des satellites de type NOSS [Naval Ocean Surveillance System, NDLR] de la marine américaine. »

« Cela est impossible car Atlantis gravitait à plus de 386 kilomètre au-dessus de la Terre. »

« Ces trois satellites gravitent autour de 1200 kilomètres. »

« Pour cette seule raison, ce n’est pas la réponse. »

More Arctic Sea Ice Than 1922

More Arctic Sea Ice Than 1922

During the winter of 1922, there was no sea ice around Spitzbergen (Svalbard.) The water had warmed by 12°C and it was too warm for seals. There was a radical change in climatic conditions with unheard-of high temperatures.

This year, there is lots of ice around Svalbard, and ice in the Barents and Kara Seas is very close to the 1981-2010 median edge.

Experts describe this increase in ice since 1922 and normal ice conditions – as a tipping point of global warming. As is normally the case, the data shows the exact opposite of claims made by climate scientists.

What Latest UFO Footage Is – and What it Is Not

What Latest UFO Footage Is – and What it Is Not

The planet must be large enough to hold an atmosphere. Today, plenty of people are confident that aliens exist. Other individuals report being made to breed with human-like extraterrestrials.

These days, UFO sighting has been an issue of amusement as an alternative to a concern, although there are ample evidences about their scary overall look. Many reported UFO sightings actually end up being something as simple as a balloon. They actually end up being something as simple as a balloon.

UFOs are often connected with aliens and conspiracy theories. They are often associated with aliens and conspiracy theories. At some stage, you’re most likely to encounter a UFO. At a while, you’re most likely to run into a UFO. Throughout that time period, there were two triangle UFOs sighted in the identical site. Throughout that period of time, there were two triangle UFOs sighted in the same site.

Latest UFO Footage

You can have a look at the video below. The video can be seen on the TTS Academy Community of Interest site by click on this link. The quick video below, for example, is just one of several contemporary sightings. The shaky video tries to concentrate on the object. however, it fades in the clouds within minutes. You may actually watch videos all day long for many years about aliens. Hypnosis video is simply one of the absolute most productive approaches to do hypnosis without the use of a true hypnotist.

You may have a look at the footage below. You might have a look at the footage below. It’s possible to have a look at the video below. It’s possible to have a peek at the video below. May you reside in interesting times! There is a good deal of work by the department to make sure we always can identify what’s flying whether it’s in our airspace or any other airspace. Regrettably, while there can be quite a few videos that are actually the true deal and supply proof of the presence of UFOs, there’s a huge quantity of fake videos posted on YouTube, the majority of them being the product of Computer Generated images (CGI).

The object continues at a quick speed, and the pilots appear to get amazed. It continues at a quick pace, and the pilots appear to get amazed. All the objects look the identical dimensions and circular in shape. Since that day a lot of people have filmed similar objects in and about crop circles. The strange object began to approach again. Then, in a couple of moments, a white Tic Tac-like object appeared over the water. As a consequence the image might be warped.

Some reports state it is a ping, but others claim it is a beep. It’s so incredible fantastic that it can’t be adequately explained or investigated in just a single hub article. Basically, it is a way for the worldwide science community to learn more about the topics which have been previously under-explored or unexploredincluding extraterrestrial life. The reply remains, for the time being, beyond our grasp. Maybe the truth is actually out there. Maybe it is actually out there. The reality is that they do.

In fact, thousands of women and men visit the area annually. Actually, thousands of individuals go to the area every year. There are hundreds and hundreds of credible individuals who support the extraterrestrial hypothesis. They don’t want to get challenged. They do not want to be challenged.

UFO'S BOVEN VLIEGVELD LIMA VERSTOREN VLIEGVELD ( VIDEO )

UFO'S BOVEN VLIEGVELD LIMA VERSTOREN VLIEGVELD ( VIDEO )

lima.jpg

De afgelopen tijd zijn er veel verstoringen geweest voor onder het vliegverkeer door onbekende objecten. 

Dit gebeurde vooral in Engeland, maar onlangs zorgde een aantal ufo’s boven het vliegveld van Lima in Peru ook voor de nodige problemen.

Wat is het toch ontzettend jammer dat er geen betrouwbare mainstreamkanalen zijn die nieuws brengen zoals dat zich werkelijk voor doet. Die gewoon verslag doen van dingen die gebeuren, zonder een achterliggende agenda.


Aangezien dat niet kan of mag en we dus niet op mainstream kunnen vertrouwen voor belangrijk nieuws, blijven we toch aangewezen op eigen onderzoek. 

Neem nu deze gebeurtenis, zoals die plaatsvond op het vliegveld van Lima in het Zuid Amerikaanse Peru op 27 februari 2019 en waarvan we bij ons in het nieuws helemaal niets hebben gezien. 

Boven het veld werd door talloze getuigen een aantal ufo’s waargenomen die maar liefst een uur lang boven één van de landingsbanen bleven hangen.

xxx

Volgens berichten in de plaatselijke media werden er rond 07.30 boven het Jorge Chavez vliegveld twee onbekende objecten waargenomen. 

Deze brachten niet zomaar even een bliksembezoek, maar bleven minstens een uur lang boven het veld hangen, volgens officiële berichten van het vliegveldpersoneel. 

Het betreft hier personeel van de Peruvian Corporation of Airports and Commercial Aviation (Corpac). Ook werd er door Corpac zelf een gedetailleerd rapport over het voorval naar buiten gebracht, de eerste keer dat Corpac iets dergelijks heeft gedaan.

xxx

Volgens de verkeersleiding op de toren hingen de objecten boven baan 33 en ook een aantal piloten maakten melding van deze objecten. 

Het vreemde is dat beide objecten even zichtbaar waren op de radar en daarna verdwenen, terwijl ze er nog wel gewoon waren. 


Bovenstaande gebeurtenis is echt, er waren daadwerkelijk vreemde objecten boven het vliegveld die ook voor de nodige verstoringen zorgden. Niemand weet wat die objecten waren, waar ze vandaan komen, wie ze besturen en wat ze kwamen doen. 

En toch…. de wereld heeft belangrijker dingen te doen klaarblijkelijk dan zich met bovenstaande vraagstukken bezighouden.

Not A Modern Idea – Even The Ancients Dreamed Of Artificial Intelligence And Robots

Artificial-Intelligence-999x540.jpg

Not A Modern Idea – Even The Ancients Dreamed Of Artificial Intelligence And Robots

While most of us consider robots and artificial intelligence as modern-day inventions, a woman’s new perspective lets us consider that people thousands of years ago also dreamed of these same ideas.

After conducting research, a Stanford classics scholar named Adrienne Mayor is convinced that the ancient Greek myths consisted of thoughts about the creation of artificial, life-like creatures. These creatures are comparable to modern-day robots and artificial intelligence. In fact, the ancient Greeks were told several stories that suggested artificial intelligence, such as an artificial woman named Pandora, and a huge bronze robot called Talos.

While historians normally link the idea of a moving mechanical device made to imitate a human (or automata) to the Middle Ages, Mayor says that the perception of artificial, life-like creatures dates all the back to at least 2,700 years ago as indicated from different legends and myths. She said, “Our ability to imagine artificial intelligence goes back to the ancient times,” adding, “Long before technological advances made self-moving devices possible, ideas about creating artificial life and robots were explored in ancient myths.” She has elaborated on these ideas in her book titled Gods and Robots: Myths, Machines, and Ancient Dreams of Technology.

Mayor also insisted that the Greek poets Hesiod and Homer, who were alive sometime between 750 and 650 B.C., wrote about artificial intelligence, self-moving objects, and robots in their work. In fact, Hesiod’s story of Talos indicated that he was a robot since he was described as a giant bronze man built by the Greek god of invention and blacksmithing called Hephaestus. Talos was said to have been directed by Zeus to protect the island of Crete from invaders and he would throw boulders at enemy ships that were approaching the island. In addition, Talos had a tube that ran from his head to one of his feet that had some sort of life source, as well as having a bolt in his ankle.

Sculpture of Zeus

Another example is Hesiod’s Theogony which is a myth about Pandora. While more modern versions of the myth have Pandora described as an innocent woman who accidentally opened a box full of evil, the original version of the story portrays her as an artificial evil woman who was built by Hephaestus and came down to Earth as directed by Zeus to conduct punishments on humans for discovering fire. “It could be argued that Pandora was a kind of AI agent,” Mayor suggested, “Her only mission was to infiltrate the human world and release her jar of miseries.”

According to Homer’s description, Hephaestus made other self-moving objects such as automated servants that were created from gold and possessed the knowledge of the god which could be in reference to artificial intelligence.

One eerie coincidence – or not a coincidence at all – is that none of those mythical creatures had very good final outcomes. “Not one of those myths has a good ending once the artificial beings are sent to Earth,” Mayor explained, “It’s almost as if the myths say that it’s great to have these artificial things up in heaven used by the gods. But once they interact with humans, we get chaos and destruction.” This would make sense, as there are many people nowadays that are worried that robots will one day ruin humanity.

Pilot of SR-71 Blackbird Sights a UFO

Pilot of SR-71 Blackbird Sights a UFO

The Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird" is a long-range, Mach 3+ strategic reconnaissance aircraft that was operated by the United States Air Force. It was developed as a black project from the Lockheed A-12 reconnaissance aircraft in the 1960s by Lockheed and its Skunk Works division. The SR-71 served with the U.S. Air Force from 1964 to 1998.

SR-71%2BBlackbird.jpg

L. A. Marzulli interviews Russel Rasmussen who tells of an encounter a pilot had with a UFO on the wing-tip of his SR 71 for several minutes at an altitude of 70,000 feet.

The pilot said to Russel Rasmussen that at the moment the disc-shaped UFO flashed off and disappeared, it was going a bit faster than Mach 3 which was the speed of the SR-71 Blackbird at that moment.

This testimony proves once again that U.S. Air Force pilots do indeed have encounters with UFOs, but they are not allowed to talk about it.

Real or fake? Triangle UFO images captured in Orlando sparks USAF secret space programme debate

Real or fake? Triangle UFO images captured in Orlando sparks USAF secret space programme debate

Many people believe that the recent UFO sighting is the proof of a secret military program conducted by the United States Air Force (USAF).

Orlando UFO

YouTube: UFOmania

Popular conspiracy theory UFOmania has recently shared the image of an apparently triangular shaped unidentified flying object (UFO) hovering in the skies of Orlando, Florida. The YouTube channel revealed that these images were originally shared on the conspiracy theory website exopolitics.org, and the images were taken by a man, confidentially known as JP.

As per the website report, the incident happened on February 18 at around 1.20 am. The image of the UFO spotted in the video has three well-defined edges, and lights were seen glowing in these areas.

The report also revealed that two men, most possibly men in black approached JP soon after the incident. Soon, these men pointed a gun on JP and threatened him to cover up the sighting. The next thing JP remembered was waking up from bed on next day morning. When JP checked the smartphone, the videos he took were deleted, but the images seem intact.

The video uploaded by UFOmania soon went viral, and viewers of UFOmania seem convinced about the secret USAF space program theory put forward by conspiracy theorists. Many viewers argued that Donald Trump's space force is already operational, and the force is now conducting regular patrolling in the skies.

Some other viewers argued that this spacecraft is actually TR-3B, the alleged anti-gravity space vessel developed by the United States Air Force during the time of the Gulf War. Many conspiracy theorists believe that the USAF has developed this secret space vessel using reverse technology they learned from advanced aliens from the deep space.

"MIB now connected to TR3B humans those two are human technology... Aka breakaway civilization or a secret space program" commented Elegantpaws01, a YouTube user. 

Even though conspiracy theorists are convinced about the authenticity of the clip, sceptics claim that these images are intentionally manipulated just for the sake of publicity and clickbait needs.

Scientists Hit Cosmic Jackpot with Discovery of 300,000 Distant Galaxies

Scientists Hit Cosmic Jackpot with Discovery of 300,000 Distant Galaxies

Astronomers have spotted hundreds of thousands of previously unknown galaxies, a raft of new studies reports.

The huge data haul should help researchers better understand the birth and growth of supermassive black holes, the evolution of galaxy-cluster mergers and many other cosmic phenomena, discovery team members said.

The team consists of more than 200 astronomers from 18 countries who pored over results from the first part of a sky survey performed by the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR), a network of radio telescopes operated by the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (known as ASTRON). Most LOFAR scopes are in the Netherlands, but the system spans multiple European countries, including Germany, France and the United Kingdom. [The Universe: Big Bang to Now in 10 Easy Steps]

The researchers discovered and mapped 300,000 radio sources, nearly all of which, the scientists said, are extremely distant galaxies. These detected radio emissions are dominated by fast-moving jets of material rocketing away from the supermassive black holes at these galaxies' hearts.

"LOFAR has a remarkable sensitivity, and that allows us to see that these jets are present in all of the most massive galaxies, which means that their black holes never stop eating," team member Philip Best, of the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, said in a statement.

"With LOFAR, we hope to answer the fascinating question: 'Where do those black holes come from?'" team member Huub Röttgering, of Leiden University in the Netherlands, said in the same statement.

The newly reported observations — which were published online last Tuesday (Feb. 19) in 26 papers in a special issue of the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics— also provide a window on galaxy-cluster mergers. These dramatic collisions accelerate deep-space particles to tremendous speeds, which create swaths of radio emission that can span millions of light-years.

But this doesn't tell the whole story, the new results suggest.

"What we are beginning to see with LOFAR is that, in some cases, clusters of galaxies that are not merging can also show this emission, albeit at a very low level that was previously undetectable," team member Annalisa Bonafede, of the University of Bologna and INAF in Italy, said in the same statement. "This discovery tells us that, besides merger events, there are other phenomena that can trigger particle acceleration over huge scales."

The discoveries above should be just the tip of the LOFAR iceberg. The new studies cover only the first 2 percent of the sky survey, LOFAR team members said. When complete, they added, the project should map a total of 15 million cosmic radio sources.

"Just imagine some of the discoveries we may make along the way," ASTRON Director General Carole Jackson said in the same statement. "I certainly look forward to it."

Expert Says Humans Are Aliens – And We Were Brought To Earth Hundreds Of Thousands Of Years Ago

Expert Says Humans Are Aliens – And We Were Brought To Earth Hundreds Of Thousands Of Years Ago

What if Humans are the aliens we’ve been looking for all along? According to experts, humans were most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth—in the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.

Tell Al-Uhaymir modern-day Iraq, where the ancient Sumerian city of Kish used to be, archaeologists found one of the oldest ancient documents on the planet, the tablet of Kish which is believed to date back to the year 3500 BC.

The Sumerian king list states that Kish was the first city to have kings following the deluge, beginning with Jushur.
Jushur’s successor is called Kullassina-bel, but this is actually a sentence in Akkadian meaning “All of them were lord”. Thus, some scholars have suggested that this may have been intended to signify the absence of a central authority in Kish for a time.

This ancient document is believed to precede the cuneiform writing of the Sumerians, and the Egyptian hieroglyphs for almost one hundred years.

Developing the ability to express thoughts through written language is one of the first ways in which man differed from the animal kingdom.

Five thousand years since, humans have developed electricity, divided the atom, developed computers, and led man to the moon. We have achieved things that other species have still not.
No other species on earth can attribute such unique achievements in such a short period of time. Interestingly, compared to other species of the earth, our ‘evolution’ is relatively short.

It has been a short period of time, most likely a few million years since the first hominid walked on Earth. Precisely this is one of the biggest scientific questions of all times: Why have only our species emerged to this truly advanced technological intelligence?

Evidently, there is nothing more advanced than humans on planet Earth.
While there are different ‘intelligent’ species on Earth, none of them makes use of technology like us.
Just imagine for a second, if for some reason, mankind had to return to the jungle, and survive there. Many experts agree that most of them would not survive for a very long period of time.

Many scientists agree that humans, in addition to their intelligence, are not very capable to occupy a wide range of environments. In other words, we are very limited when it comes to our planet.

In addition to our fascinating intelligence, biologists have also noticed contrasts between human physiology and that of other animals on earth. Many scientists agree that compared to other species on earth, humans are rather strange. For example, a baby horse when born is able to walk and function almost independently, but this a human baby cannot do, which makes us quite helpless. In other words, we are born before being neurologically ready for life.

Many researchers agree that there are many vulnerabilities that accompany our intelligence.
Humans on earth eventually became bipeds, which freed up our superior extremities allowing us to manipulate objects, create tools and much more. But for all this, experts believe that our species has paid an expensive price. Lumbar pain a sign that according to many experts could tell us a lot about our species. Curiously, other animals on Earth do NOT have this problem. It’s as if only humans are affected by some of these problems.

So what does all of this mean? According to one expert, it means that we are the aliens we’ve we been looking for all along. A new theory proposed by Dr. Ellis Silver states that there are several tell-tale signs present in the human race that suggest human beings did not evolve ALONGSIDE other lifeforms on Earth.
The book called ‘Humans are not from Earth: a scientific evaluation of the evidence’ is basically a resume of theories for and mostly against man’s evolution on Earth.

In the book, leading environmentalist and ecologist Dr. Ellis Silver goes through an evaluation of thirteen leading hypothesis and seventeen factors which suggest HUMANS ARE NOT FROM EARTH.
Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more said Dr. Ellis in an interview.

According to Dr. Ellis, humans might suffer from back pain because our species initially evolved on another planet with a lower gravity, adding to the mysteries, Dr. Ellis also indicates that it is strange that newborns have large heads and make it difficult for mothers to give birth, which can result in fatalities for both mother and child.
So where do we come from? According to Dr. Ellis, Neanderthals were most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth— in the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.

Dr Ellis Silver

In his book, Dr Ellis Silver points to a number of physiological features to make his case for why humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth

According to Dr. Ellis, there are millions of people around the globe who ‘feel’ that they do not belong on Earth.
Dr. Ellis explains: “This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species. One reason for this … is that the Earth might be a prison planet since we seem to be a naturally violent species and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”

Dr. Ellis concludes that mankind did not evolve from that particular strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago.
Furthermore, as noted by Robert Sepher, according to modern DNA sequencing, it is demonstrated that humanity as we know it, isn’t just ONE single ‘race’ that descended from the same ancestor in Africa, but a hybridized species, with a far more enigmatic truth behind it all.

Many questions have been raised in the discussion about Rh negative blood. If mankind did, in fact, evolve from a mutual ancient African ancestor, theories state that everyone’s blood would be compatible, but regrettably, this is not the case. This raises numerous questions that science alone has not been able to fully answer. Where did Rh-negative blood come from? And why is it that a Rh-negative mother carrying Rh positive children tries rejecting her own offspring? Is it possible that this can be explained by a rather controversial theory? A theory which suggests that humanity isn’t in fact one race, but a hybridized species.

The book was written by Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History tells us more about the enigmatic blood type Rh-negative. Not only does Species with Amnesia suggest mankind is, in fact, a hybridized species, the author suggests that highly advanced civilizations have been on Earth before us, just to be destroyed by some great global catastrophe, as mysteriously, history tells us.
Sepehr argues that for each race that has died out, another has taken its place, with a selected few holding on to the memories and sacred knowledge of the past race.

In our vanity, we think we have discovered some of the great truths of science and technology, but we are in fact only just beginning to rediscover the profound wisdom of past civilizations. In many ways, we are like an awakening Species with Amnesia, yearning to reclaim our forgotten past. –
The Basque people of Spain and France have the highest percentage of Rh-negative blood. About 30% have (rr) Rh negative and about 60% carry one (r) negative gene.

“There are 612 primate species and subspecies recognized by the International Union for Conversation of Nature (IUCN), and not one has Rh-negative blood”. – Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History.

THE 'EVIDENCE' TO SUGGEST HUMANS CAME FROM SPACE SO FAR

  • Bad backs suggest humans evolved in a world with lower gravity
  • Sunburn hints humans were not designed to be exposed constantly to the sun
  • The size of babies' heads present a problem for women when giving birth - difficulty not shared by other species on the planet
  • Humans are always ill, perhaps beacuse their body clocks have evolved to expect a 25 hour day - unlike Earth's
  • People just feel like they are not at home on our planet

Alpha Centauri

Was this home? Dr Ellis suggests Neanderthals such as homo erectus were crossbred with another species, perhaps from Alpha Centauri. Star Proxima Centauri is pictured in the star system, which is the closest to our solar system some 4.37 light years away from the sun

 Het nieuwe ruimteschip Crew Dragon van de Amerikaanse raketbouwer SpaceX, van zakenman Elon Musk, is vandaag met succes aangemeerd aan het internationaal ruimtestation ISS. Dat bevestigden de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie Nasa en SpaceX tijdens de videouitzending van de koppeling.

Om 11.51 uur was het contact een feit, 27 uur na de lancering met een Falcon 9-raket vanuit Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. De koppeling vond plaats 400 kilometer boven het aardoppervlakte, ten noorden van Nieuw-Zeeland. Binnen een tweetal uur is de volgende testfase gepland met de opening van het luik.

Het onbemande tuig, gebouwd om mensen te vervoeren, zette voor de testvlucht koers naar het ISS met een pop aan boord. De Crew Dragon moest zich autonoom aan het ISS koppelen. Volgende vrijdag komt het ruimteschip terug naar de aarde. Ripley, de pop aan boord genoemd naar het hoofdpersonage in de Alien-films, is voorzien van sensoren om te kijken welke krachten echte astronauten zouden ondergaan en doorheen de capsule is er ook een waaier aan meetinstrumenten.
Lukt de test, dan zouden er nog voor het einde van het jaar twee astronauten met de Crew Dragon reizen.

Zowat acht jaar geleden stopten de VS met autonome bemande ruimtevluchten met de spaceshuttle. Sinds 2011 staat Rusland vanop de basis Bajkonoer in Kazachstan in voor het transport van Amerikaanse astronauten naar en van het ISS.

OVERAL TER WERELD ZIET MEN INEENS MYSTERIEUZE LICHTEN ( VIDEO )

OVERAL TER WERELD ZIET MEN INEENS MYSTERIEUZE LICHTEN ( VIDEO )

rl.jpg

Wanneer één iemand iets vreemds ziet in de lucht, dan is dat bijzonder, maar daar blijft het dan meestal ook bij. 

Maar, als mensen wereldwijd hetzelfde zien, inclusief piloten, dan denk je al snel aan een buitenaardse invasie, nep of echt.

Er gebeuren zoveel vreemde dingen op onze aarde, waarvan je in de misdadige propagandakanalen van de mainstream media (MSM) niets terugvindt. Logisch, want het is niet in het belang van de machthebbers, die eigenaar zijn van zo goed als ieder MSM kanaal, dat wij teveel op de hoogte raken.

Waar we nu mee te maken hebben is een soort golf van waarnemingen van vreemde lichten in de lucht. Een golf die enkele weken geleden begon met de waarneming van twee Britse piloten van Air Midwest uit Gloucester die onafhankelijk van elkaar vreemde dingen zagen. 

Beide vliegtuigen waren bezig met IFR trainingsvluchten (leren vliegen op alleen instrumenten), toen beiden een rood en een oranje licht waarnamen. 

Het ene toestel vloog op een hoogte van 7.000 voet en de andere op 4.000 voet en ze probeerden een dusdanige koers te vliegen dat ze de lichten zouden onderscheppen. Maar, hoe ze ook probeerden, dit lukte niet, omdat de lichten zich steeds sneller leken te verwijderen. 

Ze beschrijven de lichten als ongeveer op dezelfde hoogte als waar zij vlogen, met een vierkante vorm. Dit zou kunnen, maar omdat dit soort lichten ook vaak pulseren, zou de vorm ook optisch bedrog kunnen zijn. Maar, hoe dan ook, ze namen vreemde rood/oranje lichten waar. 

In de video onderaan dit artikel komt Tyler van Secureteam nog met een gelijksoortige waarneming. De locatie is onbekend, maar ook hier een vreemd roodachtig licht in de lucht.

xxx

Ook in de Filipijnen wordt een golf aan roodachtig lichten gemeld, zodanig zelfs dat er uitgebreide reportages op de nationale nieuwszender te zien zijn. Voorbeeld hiervan is te bekijken in de video van Tyler.

xxx

Maar, veel dichterbij huis worden ze ook waargenomen, zoals te zien in de volgende video die gemaakt is half februari door iemand die in Frankrijk buiten liep. 

Er staat dat is gefilmd in noordwest Frankrijk, dus ergens in de buurt van Normandië of Bretagne. 

Rond dezelfde tijd maakt ook iemand anders aan de andere kant van de oceaan een opname van een vreemd roodachtig licht in de lucht. 

Zowel de video hierboven als degene hieronder zijn op het moment dat wij ze vinden minder dan 100 keer bekeken. Dat is meestal wel een goede aanwijzing dat je met een echte opname te maken hebt en niet met een advertentieklikker. 


Het soort gevoel dat je hierbij krijgt is dat er ergens net buiten de aarde een grote buitenaardse vloot hangt en dat die op verschillende plaatsen op aarde verkenners naar beneden heeft gestuurd. 

Als we er even vanuit gaan dat dit allemaal geen onderdeel vormt van de geplande nep buitenaardse invasie, maar dit echt buitenaardsen zijn, dan is het natuurlijk heel erg interessant om er achter te komen wat zij denken/willen. 

Het is te hopen dat ze voor hun beeldvorming niet teveel naar MSM kanalen bekijken, want dan zien we ze nooit meer terug (of ze blijven juist dat kan natuurlijk ook).

En dan is er natuurlijk nog de mogelijkheid dat die enorme vloot is gekomen om een beperkt aantal mensen mee te nemen naar waar het ook is waar zij vandaan komen. 

Probleem dat wij dan weer hebben is dat we dan bijna 60 procent van onze lezers kwijtraken.

En voordat er misschien heel veel mensen vertrekken naar andere delen van het universum, is het misschien handig om snel nog even gebruik te maken van het aanbod van Orjana voor Niburulezers deze week, zodat ze na een lange ruimtereis in ieder geval gezond aankomen.

Jeff Bezos Wants a Trillion People to Live in Space

Jeff Bezos wants to colonize space.

Jeff Bezos Wants a Trillion People to Live in Space

When you have more money than God, what’s next? What could the man who has everything possibly want? Well, transforming humanity into a space-faring civilization, and the immortality that comes with it, seems a likely bet and that looks like the direction many of these billionaires want to go. Amazon founder and Lex Luthor doppelganger Jeff Bezos recently spoke at a members-only event at New York’s Yale Club about his space colonization ambitions with his company Blue Origin. At the event, Bezos described his vision for the future which, according to him, would see one trillion humans living in space, a society of “thousands of Mozarts and Einsteins,” and an Earth whose natural beauty and environment has been preserved by moving heavy industries off-world.

According to Business Insider, who transcribed the speech, Bezos said:

“The solar system can support a trillion humans, and then we’d have 1,000 Mozarts, and 1,000 Einsteins. Think how incredible and dynamic that civilization will be.

But if we’re going to have that, we do have to go out into the solar system. You have to capture more of the sun’s output, and we have to use all of the resources that are out in space, in terms of minerals and not just energy. And that’s very doable, but we have to get started.”

The alternative to going to space, according to Bezos, is bleak. Citing compounding energy use, he says a future locked on earth would be one of “population control and energy rationing,” and that’s not the future he wants for his grandchildren’s grandchildren.

Unlike Elon Musk, who is also deep into the new billionaire space race, Bezos doesn’t believe we should colonize other planets. Instead, he says we will build giant “O’Neil-style” cylindrical space colonies:

[T]he space colonies we’ll build will have many advantages. The primary one is that they’ll be close to Earth. The transit time and the amount of energy required to move between planets is so high. But if you have giant space colonies that are energetically close and, in terms of travel time close to Earth, then people will be able to come and go. Very few people are going to want to leave this planet permanently — it’s just too amazing.

On the matter of what happens to the Earth, Bezos says that the goal of building a space-faring civilization is to protect it. Locked down here we have no choice but to exploit all of the finite resources, but in space that won’t matter. He says:

“Ultimately what will happen, is this planet will be zoned residential and light industry. We’ll have universities here and so on, but we won’t do heavy industry here. Why would we? This is the gem of the solar system. Why would we do heavy industry here? It’s nonsense.”

Jeff Bezos says he now believes Blue Origin, his private aerospace company, is the most important work he will ever do. To fund this important work, Bezos reportedly liquidates $1 billion worth of Amazon stock every year. The company is focused on building a low-cost, reusable launch vehicle, which Bezos believes is the key to extending our reach to the stars. He says:

“The fact of the matter is we don’t have forever, and the first step — I don’t know all future steps — but I know one of them is we need to build a low-cost, highly operable, reusable launch vehicle. No matter which path you take, it has to go through that gate.”

Now, I’m feeling a little bit confused. On one hand, Jeff Bezos is Lex Luthor. On the other hand, he’s right. If we could sure that this future, no matter who gets to have their statue built, is the one that’s coming, I think we’d all sleep a little easier and worry a little less. There are all sorts of problems with Jeff Bezos and Amazon. There are all sorts of problems with everybody. But there is something singularly beautiful about dreaming of the stars. To quote astronaut David Scott as he was standing on the surface of the Moon:

“As I stand out here in the wonders of the unknown at Hadley, I sort of realize there’s a fundamental truth to our nature, Man must explore . . . and this is exploration at its greatest.

For when I look at the Moon I do not see a hostile, empty world. I see the radiant body where man has taken his first steps into a frontier that will never end.”

Spinning UFO Ring Seen Over Wales and Wing-Shaped Lights Appear Over Minnesota

Spinning UFO Ring Seen Over Wales and Wing-Shaped Lights Appear Over Minnesota

March is supposed to come in like either a lion or a lamb, but this year’s relief-that-February-is-over month has come in like odd UFO recordings. Following a recent sighting of two UFOs mysteriously hovering for almost an hour over a major international airport in Peru, reports and recordings have come in showing a strange ring of UFOs over Wales and a wing or sock-shaped formation of lights (obviously a deceptive alien maneuver) over Minnesota. If March comes in like a UFO, does it go out like a government disclosure?

“Upon my analysis of this fascinating footage in more detail I confirmed what the witnesses had seen and described also confirming the lights to be rotating in a circular uniformed formation, giving the impression of being fixed to a much larger circular base structure. Also frames were obtained revealing an unusual unknown shaped object, multicoloured in appearance exhibiting a full visual spectrum range. Near the end of the footage the lights appear to change angle to a 45 degrees angle but continuing to rotate as they did in the horizontal position before blinking out of sight for good.”

The Welsh sighting occurred in 2012 but the video was only released recently by British UFO researcher Jason Gleaves and, while unresolved, offers a brief but good tutorial on how to take a UFO video and then how to analyze it. (Watch the video here.) Gleaves received the video from teen brothers Nathan and Alex Thomas, who claim they saw the UFO around 3am on January 3, 2012 in Denbigh, North Wales. Deciding it wasn’t fireworks and puzzled by the lack of sound, they recorded it using a camera Nathan had just received for Christmas. Gleaves complimented Nathan on his “steady focus” and for focusing and zooming on local landmarks. Gleaves then used daytime photos of the same landscape to determine that the UFO was traveling above trees less than two miles away. Yes, Gleaves knows what you’re thinking.

“Other possible factors and identification of the unknown light sources could be drones, but during 2012 drone technology had not been widely available to the public as they are today, so I don’t believe the lights to be drones.”

Flying saucer? Gleaves knows better than to propose that, given he’s working with a 37 second video taken at 3 am. Nonetheless, he confirmed it was something round that he couldn’t identify. A blimp or hot air balloon? Perhaps he’s better with sock-shaped UFOs. That’s what is seen in a video hovering over St. Louis Park (a western suburb of Minneapolis) taken on February 10, 2019, by Netzaid Vazquez Diaz and uploaded to the Internet last week where it was picked up around the world. (Watch the video here.) Diaz must have read the UFO video handbook because he started his clip with a shot of the ground, then up some buildings and into the sky. Unfortunately, the 25 second clip. Doesn’t show much more than a sock-shaped circle of lights – an alien spaceship with one wing’s lights out? A TR-3B with one wing’s lights out? A lighted kite? A laser light display? A tight formation of drones? We could go on but none of those can be conclusively proven by this video and, although other videos are rumored to exist along with other witnesses, none have surfaced as of this writing.

Interesting videos … no conclusions. Remember the rules of UFO recording: keep your batteries charged, your arm steady and your landmarks (and opinions) in perspective. And hold your breath while shooting … but not while waiting for March to go out like a government UFO disclosure.

First Evidence of a Planet-Wide Groundwater System On Mars

mars-2051747_1280-999x540.png

First Evidence of a Planet-Wide Groundwater System On Mars

Is there lakes on Mars?

Not exactly proper English for a remake of David Bowie’s classic song, but in this case the answer is “Yes” … or at least “Yes, at one time.” For the first time ever, researchers have found solid evidence of large liquid lakes on Mars that were interconnected and possibly teeming with life. Cavemen, sailors and lawmen? Only a hands-on look at this geological evidence will answer that question. Elon?

“Early Mars was a watery world, but as the planet’s climate changed this water retreated below the surface to form pools and ‘groundwater. We traced this water in our study, as its scale and role is a matter of debate, and we found the first geological evidence of a planet-wide groundwater system on Mars.”

As University of Utrecht planetary geologist Francesco Salese explains in his new study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, credit for this fantastic discovery goes to the three-camera team of the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on the ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft, and NASA’s High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) and the Context Camera onboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. All of that observational equipment was aimed at 24 deep, enclosed craters in the northern hemisphere of Mars. At a depth of 4,000 meters, which the study defines as 4,000 meters below an arbitrary Martian sea level, nearly all of the craters showed similar evidence that could only be attributed to water.

Mars Express

“Features include channels etched into crater walls, valleys carved out by sapping groundwater, dark, curved deltas thought to have formed as water levels rose and fell, ridged terraces within crater walls formed by standing water, and fan-shaped deposits of sediment associated with flowing water. The water level aligns with the proposed shorelines of a putative martian ocean thought to have existed on Mars between three and four billion years ago.”

Based on this commonality in the majority of the craters, co-author Gian Gabriele Ori, director of the Università D’Annunzio’s International Research School of Planetary Sciences in Italy, believes these underground lakes connected Martian oceans which stretched across the planet 3.5 billion years ago. Because of Marian climate change, this water eventually went underground where it’s possible that it could still exist in pockets of ice. Will that ice or the soil around it contain evidence of Martian life?

“The team also spotted signs of minerals within five of the craters that are linked to the emergence of life on Earth: various clays, carbonates, and silicates. The finding adds weight to the idea that these basins on Mars may once have had the ingredients to host life. Moreover, they were the only basins deep enough to intersect with the water-saturated part of Mars’ crust for long periods of time, with evidence perhaps still buried in the sediments today.”

If there was water …

That’s a qualified ‘yes’, which means thirsty Martian explorers may want to avoid drinking from any water fountains or wells as they traverse the Red Planet. In fact, the discovery highlights the importance of unmanned expeditions in general, as Dmitri Titov, ESA’s Mars Express project scientist, explained in the press release. (Charts and photos here and here.)

“It is especially exciting that a mission that has been so fruitful at the Red Planet, Mars Express, is now instrumental in helping future missions such as ExoMars explore the planet in a different way. It’s a great example of missions working together with great success.”

Working together in space. If the Mars Express and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter can do it, why not humans from the space-exploring countries as well?

Do we need a Space Force … or more Space Friends?

Aliens Like Us: Would ET Enjoy the Same Things We Do?

Aliens Like Us: Would ET Enjoy the Same Things We Do?

In the 1988 science fiction film Alien Nation, a group of alien immigrants arrives on Earth and attempts to assimilate into society beginning with a “colony” in Los Angeles. Set in 1991, it explores many of the common themes prevalent in such films, which include xenophobia, extraterrestrial invasion, and alien life in general.

The aliens in the film, which are called the Tenctonese or, informally, the “Newcomers,” are for the most part very much like humans in appearance, apart from both sexes having bald heads that feature exotic patterns. Despite their similar appearance, they possess a number of physiological differences; namely, contact with salt water is deadly for the Newcomers.

Apart from this primary difference, the Newcomers in Alien Nation are more or less human-like (as are most aliens in science fiction, if they aren’t depicted in the other tired “octopoidal” trope). But if and when we eventually find intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, how much like us will it really be? Would aliens enjoy the same sorts of things humans do–such as food, arts, and entertainment–and if not, how would they differ?

As far as having an appreciation for the arts, some have argued that aliens would absolutely be like us in that respect. Writing for Space.com in 2010, Clara Moskowitz noted that,  “Art may attract aliens more than academics because any extraterrestrial civilization that we are able to get in touch with is likely to be much older than us and more technically advanced.” Moskowitz, reporting on the SETIcon Conference on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence held that year, noted that experts in attendance were optimistic about ET’s interest in the cultured side of human existence.

Part of this has to do with the fact that aliens likely wouldn’t be as interested in learning about math and science from us. Especially if they were able to travel to our planet from elsewhere in the cosmos since this would require more advanced knowledge of physics than we already possess. “However,” Clara wrote, “our art and music is singularly human, and could likely be fascinating to an alien species.”

While soaking in their fill of Earthly culture, aliens would no doubt be inclined to try our culinary offerings, too. However, aliens might want to take in more than just their fill of what Earth has to offer to interstellar diners, according to social scientist and chef Christy Spackman at ASU’s School for the Future of Innovation in Society. Spackman (much like this author) began to think about the common stereotypes about aliens that emerge in common sci-fi depictions of them. This led her to consider what a “sensory meal” shared with aliens might be like if they were to visit Earth; among the things we might have to offer them include “feasts of light,” and how it interacts with the eyes (that is, if the aliens in question have ocular organs like ours). Also on the list were olfactory feasts (again, as with before, that’s if the aliens have noses, or something akin to one that assists in detecting aromas), and a host of other things.

“It calls for generosity of spirit,” Spackman said of her sensory feasts, “both in those who are producing and for those who are consuming, and a willingness to say, ‘This will never be perfect, so we can meet at the good enough’.”

Also, if aliens are really anything like us, after partaking in a feast, they may need to pencil in a bit of time for a nap afterward. Then again, one popular theory about our inability to find aliens already involves the notion that it’s because they may be hibernating, in which case going back to sleep may not be quite so appealing. However, part of the rationale for this theory involves alien life that has graduated beyond the stage of biology; that is, aliens who have shed their natural state in order to inhabit artificial or synthetic forms, which are hypothetically capable of sustaining themselves in harsh environments where biology simply could not thrive.

“Having essentially uploaded their minds onto powerful computers, the civilizations choosing to do this could enhance their intellectual capacities or inhabit some of the harshest environments in the universe with ease,” wrote Robert Hart in an ASU collaboration with Slate in 2017. The idea is that such aliens might estivate–that is, spend a particularly hot period in a state of near or complete dormancy–awaiting a period in the future where the universe has cooled to a point that they may operate more efficiently (entropically speaking, of course).

If we’re ever to know the full extent to which aliens may end up being like us, they will probably need to have something else in common with humans: just like we search for other forms of life, they will likely have to be searching for us. Of course, while we continue to look for intelligent life on other worlds, it remains to be shown whether or not we truly have much of it on this world… perhaps with time, and a little luck, aliens will eventually find us and can shed some light on that age-old earthly question, too.

This is Really a Mirage? Glitch in Dimensions?

This is Really a Mirage? Glitch in Dimensions?

A Finnish border guard was, quite literally, stopped in their tracks Sunday after a ‘new island’ appeared in the middle of the frozen Lake Inari without warning.

Mirage%2BGlitch%2BDimensions%2B%25281%2529.jpg


Mirage%2BGlitch%2BDimensions%2B%25282%2529.jpg
Finland’s Lapland Border Patrol tweeted images of the strange, apparently geological, phenomenon; an impressive feat considering temperatures in the region had plummeted as low as -25 degrees Celsius.

And there was no sight nor sound of any volcanic activity in the area that might explain the sudden appearance of new rock formations, seemingly out of nowhere.

Mirage%2BGlitch%2BDimensions%2B%25283%2529.jpg

According to RT who refers to comments on Twitter, it was merely an optical illusion, light behaves differently when passing through atmospheric layers, which can lead to mirage-like effects along the horizon, reflecting and refracting distant landscapes in mind-bending ways.

Mirage%2BGlitch%2BDimensions%2B%25284%2529.jpg

They can say it just an optical illusion but is it possible that the border Patrol has photographed something from another world, a parallel universe, caused by a glitch in dimensions?

Date of sighting: February 27, 2019
Location of sighting: Lima, Peru Airport
 
A UFO was seen over the Lima, Peru Airport last week. While airplanes were coming and going, someone noticed a hovering object over the runway. The object tased for an hour before just disappearing and flights were delayed. Apparently aliens assume that alien UFOs over an busy airport with loads of planes is would be taken better than flying over your home and hovering. Why? Flying objects are expected at the airport...making even a UFO sighting more relaxed and less of a surprise. Honestly...alien are suppose to land at the airport not your house...right? I say...let them land. Give them clearance!

Video states: 
According to Peruvian media reports on February 27, 2019, two UFOs were sighted over Jorge Chávez International Airport at 0630 UTC and they remained for almost an hour over the Lima sky according to official information from the personnel of the control tower of the airport. Flights were delayed due to UFOs sighting. The staff of the Peruvian Corporation of Airports and Commercial Aviation ( Corpac ) witnessed the UFOs over the airport and even videotaped and photographed. Corpac issued the official report, and it is the first time Corpac provides a detailed report on UFOs over international airport.
According to the report, witnesses reported two UFOs over the main airport on February 27. In addition, they detailed that the objects remained for approximately one hour over the airport. The events occurred at dawn on Wednesday, February 27. The control tower workers said that the UFOs were positioned on runway 33.
According to information, the UFOs were also seen by the ground crew of two planes that covered the Lima-Córdova and Lima-Quito routes. One of the unidentified objects appeared for a few moments on the radar, but moments later, both disappeared from the view of the airport staff. In the down below image, you can see the official report of Corpac and signed by the technician José Zarabia Salas, who has confirmed the UFO sighting.

This UFO was caught by spectators who observed a UFO disguised as the sun sinking into the ocean. I have heard of such things, but this is the first good video of such a phenomenon. Under water alien bases do exist, and since 75% of the earth is covered by water,  I assume 75% of all alien bases are too.

Strange sunset do not you think? We are used to seeing the sunrise and sunset on the horizon line. But something illogical could be seen on December 25 in California. The sun went into the ocean. Strange sunset in California USA

Date of sighting: March 1, 2019
Location of sighting: Mount Adams, Washington
 
This UFO was captured at the top of Mount Adams. This is the same location where people from around the world, including TV news and military generals have visited at night and have seen UFOs. James Gillian, the owner of the ranch noticed the UFOs decades ago and since then opened up a camping area for UFO researchers who see them nightly...with video to prove it. James Gillian himself says he was invited by an alien onboard a ship to see what its like. I have been following James for over 7 years...and he never fails to impress with his videos, photos and personal experiences with the aliens he says lives in a base 4-5 miles below Mount Adams. Want to prove him wrong? I dare you to go there and try. Bring the night vision, scopes and video recorders.

Video states: 
We made our way to the ECETI Ranch, at the base of Mount Adams, to make contact! During our stay, we recorded many anomalous objects floating in and around the mountain. At the beginning, we believed these were hitchhikers, but upon closer examination, in the thermal camera (which detects heat signatures), no heat (from a body) was detected. The truth is, up to 95% of what people think are ET craft, is explainable, but we are going after that 5% that are legitimate other worldly craft, in our search around the globe.

Aliens or military vessel? V-shaped UFO spotted in United Kingdom

Aliens or military vessel? V-shaped UFO spotted in United Kingdom

Interestingly, the V-shaped UFO spotted in the United Kingdom seems very similar to the alien spaceships depicted in Hollywood movies.

UFO United Kingdom
YouTube: UFOmania

Popular conspiracy theory YouTube channel 'UFOmania' has recently uploaded a video that shows an eerie V-shaped flying object hovering in the skies of Failsworth, United Kingdom. Interestingly, the perfectly cut V-shape of the UFO seems very similar to the spacecraft which people have seen in Hollywood sci-fi films.

Even though the image was captured by the witness last October, pictures of this incident became viral after it was shared by a website named UFO Sightings Hotspot, and later by the YouTube channel UFOmania. The creepy photo is now being submitted to MUFON (Mutual UFO Network), and they are apparently investigating the authenticity of the image.

As the image went viral online, many people have started arguing that this UFO could actually be an alien vehicle from deep space. Most of these extraterrestrial buffs argue that aliens who live in the far nooks of the universe used to visit earth regularly to monitor human activities.

"It looks straight out a movi.. which makes you wonder what Hollywood knows?" commented Ninorc Sinned, a YouTube user.

In the meantime, a section of other conspiracy theorists claims that these V-shaped crafts could be secret military vessels developed by the United States Air Force. Conspiracy theorists have long been claiming that the USAF had developed a triangular craft allegedly named 'TR-3B' during the time of Gulf War. It should be noted that the shape of TR-3B often depicted by conspiracy theorists seems very similar to that of the flying object spotted in the United Kingdom.

"Incredible! It looks like the government! They've been working on these since the 40's," commented LeAnn Winter, another YouTuber.

However, sceptics were quick to dismiss both the alien and secret military weapon theory. As per these sceptics, the V-shaped object is actually the reflection from the car's window.

Alien SPACESHIP spotted shooting past Earth claims EXPERT – 'VERY strange' – VIDEO

Alien SPACESHIP spotted shooting past Earth claims EXPERT – 'VERY strange' – VIDEO

A SOPHISTICATED alien spaceship may have been spotted shooting through our solar system, according to a top professor at Harvard.

The space object, which is the first interstellar phenomenon to reach our solar system, has been labelled ‘Oumuamua’ after the Hawaiian for ‘scout’. The head of astronomy at Harvard University, Avi Loeb, told Express.co.uk that he thinks it could be artificial in origin. He explained: “Oumuamua was the very first interstellar object. It was very strange on many counts.

“First, as it rotated, its brightness changed by at least a factor of ten which implies that it’s at least ten times longer than it is wide.

“That’s a very extreme shape compared to the asteroids or comets that we’ve found in the solar system.

“In addition, it has no trail around it or any traces of gases like carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide to a very tight limit.

“At the same time, the object showed a deviation from the orbit that one would expect - so there was an extra push exhibited by the orbit.

“The possibility is that this object was extremely thin, less than a millimetre thick, and that it was pushed by sunlight.

“And that’s what we proposed in a scientific paper that was published in November 2018 where we suggested that it might be a light sail.

“Which is a technology that we’re currently developing for the purpose of propulsion in space.

“The advantage of this technology - where you basically push on a sail with light being reflected off it just like the wind is reflected off the sail of a sail boat - the advantage is that you don’t need to carry the fuel with you.

“And you can, in principle, reach a fraction of the speed of light with this technology.

“So we suggested that maybe this object is artificial in origin.

“And, of course, that got a lot of media attention.

“We didn’t intend to get this attention. We didn’t have a press release or anything.”

Some other scientists have criticised the hypothesis that the object is alien in origin.

A recent theory, posited by Zdenek Sekanina suggests that Oumuamua might be “a monstrous fluffy dust aggregate released in a recent explosive event.”

Self-folding drone could speed up search and rescue missions

Self-folding drone could speed up search and rescue missions

Chloe Taylor

KEY POINTS
  • Researchers at the University of Zurich have developed a foldable drone to be used in disaster response scenarios.
  • It can enter inaccessible areas and stream footage to search and rescue teams.
  • However, experts say there are still issues with the drone that must be fixed before it is commercialized.
H/O: Folding drones 190218 EU

University of Zurich

A drone that can change shape in flight has been developed by researchers at the University of Zurich to assist with search and rescue missions.

Able to contract and fold, the aircraft can enter small cracks and spaces to stream footage to rescue teams via its two integrated cameras. The drone is designed for use in areas in disaster zones that become inaccessible to rescuers due to safety concerns or physical restrictions.

Davide Falanga, one of its developers, told CNBC on the phone that the drone could make rescue missions more efficient and effective.

”(This drone could have) multiple impacts – it can go into areas that would otherwise be inaccessible,” he said. “In the aftermath of an earthquake it could let rescuers enter and explore a collapsed building. We used the most efficient and stable systems allow it to fly longer, and have held public demonstrations in realistic scenarios which showed that this is a feasible product.

Funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation, the project took six months to go from concept to prototype. However, as the drone is still in early development stages, its developers have no timescale for a wide rollout.

“We would be open to commercializing and discussing opportunities with investors, but at the moment there’s no commercial plan,” Falanga told CNBC. “We have sometimes had to tinker with the system when we’ve deployed it — we want it to be deployed and work immediately, so we need about six months to a year to improve the drone and make it more robust so it can work in more scenarios. But the idea itself is definitely feasible.”

H/O: Folding drones 2 190218 EU
University of Zurich

According to the research paper written by the drone’s developers, their aircraft “could lead to a shift in the research community towards morphing aerial vehicles.”

However, they noted that there were still several unsolved research questions, such as “automatic morphology selection,”which refers to the robot’s ability to autonomously take the best shape for the task at hand.

Unsolved problems

Mohan Sridharan, senior lecturer at the University of Birmingham’s School of Computer Science, told CNBC via email that foldable drones were being explored by the wider robotics research community, with several concepts currently in development.

“This would indeed help in disaster response, but the stable navigation of such a drone is not a solved problem,” he said. “Also, complex applications such as disaster response pose other challenges related to perception, reasoning, and communication.”

Maria Kamargianni, lecturer in transport and energy at University College London, told CNBC on the phone that privacy concerns would need to be addressed before the drone could be commercialized.

“This is a very promising technology for search and rescue projects, and it’s much more economically viable than existing options. In circumstances where a helicopter or a drone could be used, a drone would be much cheaper to deploy,” she said.

“The technology has lots of other applications as well — for example, it could be used to examine the quality of materials on a collapsed bridge. But technologies must be developed in line with public acceptance of them, so these drones should be designed in a way that notifies the public they are being used by the authorities — this could be done by using distinctive colors. In rolling them out companies would also have to make sure they are not violating personal data regulations.”

Pilots Report Valentine's Day Sighting of UFOs over Gloucester, England

Pilots Report Valentine's Day Sighting of UFOs over Gloucester, England

TOBIAS WAYLAND

Air Midwest—a flight training and aviation service company—recently released information detailing a series of strange lights spotted by two of their aircraft south of Gloucester, England on February 14th between 8:15-8:45 p.m.

The has been a lot of interest in the fact that our pilots observed ‘UFO’s’ last night during night flying exercises... so here is a brief summary of the situation.
Event - unidentified airborne nocturnal lights.
Location - south of Gloucester.
Timings - 20:15 - 20:45 ZULU 
Event outline - 
2 of our aircraft were conducting night navigation exercises to the south and south east of our home airfield.
At approximately 20:15 one of our aircraft was tracking south towards Gloucester at 7000ft after leaving the the Birmingham air traffic zone. At the same time one of our other aircraft was also tracking south towards Gloucester at 4000ft when both aircraft observed one red and one orange lights in the the sky south of Gloucester. Our aircraft approached the lights on an interception track but were unable to gain on the objects as they appeared to move further south of Gloucester as our aircraft approached. We were unable to identify the lights.
One of our pilots filed the following report on the event -

“I observed Initially 2 large square orange lights. One on top of each but slightly off set however there was a gap in height between them.

The top object was constantly orange. The lower one occasionally flicked white but majority of time was orange. In addition to that on 2 occasions I observed 5 orange lights but that was momentary.

I initially observed them when leaving Birmingham control zone. I thought they were just south of Gloucester and definitely a lot higher then us. We then climbed 5000 ft and they seemed level at that height and stationary.

As we approached Gloucester came apparent they were now further south maybe beyond Bristol even as far as Weston super-mare but directly south of Gloucester airport.

On our return leg up to EGBO (our home base) by Worcester we climbed 7000 ft and commenced a turn to observe the lights. At this point they seemed lower than us in the same place and stationary.

I have no idea what these objects were”

That is all we can say on the matter.
Night glow balloons? But unlikely as these do not move very fast at all.
So what they were?
We have no idea.
An interesting event.

According to a statement made by Air Midwest, two of the company's aircraft were conducting nighttime navigation exercises to the south and southeast of their home airfield when the encounter occurred.

Around 8:15 p.m, one of the aircraft was tracking south towards Gloucester at 7,000 feet after leaving the Birmingham air traffic zone. Meanwhile, a second aircraft was also tracking south towards Gloucester at 4,000 feet.

Both aircraft observed two lights—one red and one orange—in the sky south of Gloucester. The aircraft approached the lights on an interception track, but were unable to gain on the objects as they appeared to move further south of Gloucester as the aircraft approached.

The pilots and air traffic control were unable to identify the lights.

One of the pilot’s reports was included with the statement.

I observed initially 2 large square orange lights. One on top of each but slightly off set however there was a gap in height between them.

The top object was constantly orange. The lower one occasionally flicked white but majority of time was orange. In addition to that on 2 occasions I observed 5 orange lights but that was momentary.

I initially observed them when leaving Birmingham control zone. I thought they were just south of Gloucester and definitely a lot higher then us. We then climbed 5000 ft and they seemed level at that height and stationary.

As we approached Gloucester came apparent they were now further south maybe beyond Bristol even as far as Weston super-mare but directly south of Gloucester airport.

On our return leg up to EGBO (our home base) by Worcester we climbed 7000 ft and commenced a turn to observe the lights. At this point they seemed lower than us in the same place and stationary.

I have no idea what these objects were.

Air Midwest also released two radio transmissions related to the sightings.

"This first one is the pilot of callsign ‘Golf-Sierra India’ calling air traffic control our our home airfield," a statement included with the recording said. "In this radio call the pilot believes he may be under a laser attack from the ground. We are unsure if this event is involved with the main event. In this case a bright laser-like light illuminated the cockpit. Immediately after this the main lights were observed that we refer to in the post."

"This second recording is between two pilots of callsign ‘Golf-Sierra India’ and ‘Golf- Alpha Mike’. The response of ‘Alpha Mikes’ captain is humorous as at the time he believes the light must be a normal event," said a statement accompanying the second recording.

The company later clarified their previous statement by insisting they had never claimed to have "encountered an extraterrestrial situation."

"We encountered unexplained airborne lights that defied our normal expectation of standard aircraft or meteorological activity," said the second statement. "We considered it could be night glow hot air balloons, but we are not aware any any such activities taking place and the objects observed seemed to move from their original location to another with a rapidity not in line with balloon activity...but of course the apparent changes of location could have been an optical illusion due to night effect."

"In conclusion, our pilots, both senior flight instructors and highly experienced commercial airline pilots with over 25,000 flying hours between them, together with their crews observed airborne lights the nature of which they were unable to identify," continued the statement. "For this fact alone we obviously can only describe the observations as ‘Unidentified Flying or Airborne Objects’. Hence referring to them as UFO’s, as that is what they were."

"We have no idea as to the origin of the objects and as yet we have not yet come across any standard explanation for what the objects could have been," it concluded.

See the Evolution of SpaceX's Rockets in Pictures

SpaceX's Rockets

SpaceX

SpaceX began in 2002, when its founder, Elon Musk, took the first steps in his grand ambition to send a mission to Mars. More than 15 years later, the company is way beyond the space startup stage.

The Hawthorne, California-based company regularly reuses rockets, sends cargo missions to the International Space Station with the uncrewed Dragon spacecraft and will fly astronauts for NASA in the future. In 2018, SpaceX launched the massive Falcon Heavy and has plans for an even larger rocket to reach Mars: the Big Falcon Rocket (BFR). 

Read more about SpaceX's history of rockets and spacecraft development in the following slideshow.

Falcon 1

SpaceX

The Falcon 1 was the first rocket manufactured by SpaceX. It had a proposed capacity to carry 670 kilograms (1,480 lbs.) to low Earth orbit, and it flew between 2006 and 2009. After three launch failures, Falcon 1 sent a dummy payload to space on Sept. 29, 2008. Its fifth and final launch, on July 14, 2009, sent RazakSAT, a Malaysian Earth-observation satellite, into orbit. Falcon 1 rockets launched from Omelek Island, part of the Kwajalein Atoll in the Pacific Ocean. And in case you're wondering, Musk named the Falcon rockets after the Millennium Falcon ship from "Star Wars." 

Developing Falcon 9

SpaceX

SpaceX quickly received interest from several companies looking for a heavier-lift rocket. The company had considered developing an intermediary rocket called the Falcon 5, but instead skipped ahead and began work on the Falcon 9. This rocket can send a payload to low Earth orbit weighing up to 28,991 lbs. (13,150 kg). It is a two-stage rocket. SpaceX first advertised plans for the Falcon 9 in 2005 and sent the debut Falcon 9 aloft on June 7, 2010, from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Early customers of the rocket included Bigelow Aerospace; Avanti Communications; and MacDonald, Dettwiler and Associates.

Ground landings

SpaceX

SpaceX's first successful Falcon 9 landing in Landing Zone 1, on Dec. 21, 2015, was hailed as a milestone for rocket reusability. However, the company still tried to improve on that achievement. SpaceX experienced a mix of successful and failed ocean landings in 2014 and 2015. [SpaceX's Epic Falcon 9 Rocket Landing in Pictures]

In 2015, SpaceX was also trying to land on drone ships in the ocean. While these landings kept ending with failure, Musk would post the videos and pictures on his Twitter feed, acknowledging mistakes made, and the company would work on improving for the next flight. 

Dragon dreams

SpaceX

SpaceX kept the first 18 months of the Dragon cargo ship's development under wraps. Then, in March 2006, the company officially made Dragon public when the company submitted a proposal for NASA's Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) demonstration program. The ultimate goal was to develop a private spacecraft to ferry cargo to the International Space Station. 

After Spacex hit several milestones, NASA selected SpaceX's Dragon in December 2008 to be one of the companies providing commercial resupply services to the space station. SpaceX's contract value at that time was a minimum of $1.6 billion, with options to extend to $3.1 billion; the company has since received a new contract for cargo launch services. Musk has confirmed that he named Dragon after "Puff the Magic Dragon."

Early Dragon flights

SpaceX

Dragon made a successful maiden flight on Dec. 8, 2010, from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Then, on May 22, 2012, Dragon launched for an important test: an attempt to berth the spacecraft with the International Space Station. Dragon made it to the station safely on May 25 of that year, despite experiencing some problems with a laser system that was supposed to judge the craft's distance to the orbiting complex. The milestone prompted worldwide acclaim. It was the first time a private spacecraft docked with the space station. SpaceX has since upgraded its uncrewed Dragon cargo ships to be reusable for at least two flights. 

Grasshopper

Chris Thompson/SpaceX

Grasshopper was a rocket prototype flown at SpaceX's McGregor, Texas, proving grounds to give the company more experience in landing boosters vertically. While Grasshopper did not get as much media attention as SpaceX's other programs, it was key to furthering the development of Falcon 9's reusable first stage. The Grasshopper rocket made eight test flights between 2012 and 2013, with the final flight seeing Grasshopper soar to 2,440 feet (744 meters). The Grasshopper program was then retired so SpaceX could focus more resources on Falcon 9's development.

Falcon 9 Reusable Development Vehicle

SpaceX

SpaceX announced the Falcon 9 Reusable Development Vehicle in 2012, which was based on the first stage of the Falcon 9. The company made five flights of this system at the SpaceX McGregor site between April and August 2014, with the maximum altitude on some flights exceeding 3,280 feet (1,000 m). The last booster, which launched on Aug. 22, 2014, exploded due to a blocked sensor.

SpaceX's first rocket landing pad


SpaceX

This picture shows Landing Zone 1, a ground landing zone for the Falcon 9's first stage at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. This is where SpaceX made the first of its controlled ground landings, on Dec. 21, 2015. The company built the pad on land leased from the U.S. Air Force on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. (Landing Zone 1 is on land that used to host Launch Complex 13.) This landing was extra-sweet because the previous Falcon 9 flight, in June 2015, ended catastrophically with an explosion. 

Reusing rockets

SpaceX

Right from the beginning of Falcon 9's history, SpaceX was interested in reusing the first stage of the rocket to save on launch costs. Early tests of the landing were unsuccessful, however. SpaceX made attempts on the first, second and sixth launches of the Falcon 9 to control the booster's landing, but in each case, the stage slammed down into the ocean. SpaceX finally achieved a controlled ocean landing on Falcon 9's ninth launch (the fourth controlled-landing attempt), on April 18, 2014. This was an important stepping stone in the path to eventual reusability.

Drone-ship landing

SpaceX

The persistence exhibited by Musk and his employees finally paid off on April 8, 2016, when a Falcon 9 first stage touched down softly on a drone ship called "Of Course I Still Love You" in the Atlantic Ocean. The Dragon spacecraft that this Falcon 9 carried aloft also had a milestone flight, delivering an inflatable module — the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module — to the International Space Station. 

SpaceX's success rate with drone landings improved drastically after the April 2016 flight, although some boosters still missed the mark from time to time. The company's Falcon 9 flight success rate is also strong; its last failure, in September 2016, saw a rocket explode on the launch pad before taking off. SpaceX has a second drone ship, "Just Read the Instructions," which is used for Pacific Ocean landings after launches from Vandenberg Air Force Station in California. Both ships are named for fictional starships in the science fiction books of Iain M. Banks.

Falcon Heavy's maiden flight

SpaceX

The Falcon Heavy rocket, a heavy-lift version of the Falcon series, had a successful debut flight on Feb. 6, 2018, launching from NASA's Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The rocket successfully launched a Tesla car into space. (Musk is also the CEO of Tesla Motors.) The Falcon Heavy is 230 feet tall (70 m) and can lift nearly 141,000 lbs. (64 metric tons) of payload to low Earth orbit. This is twice what its closest competitor, the United Launch Alliance's Delta IV Heavy, can hoist into orbit. 

Falcon Heavy's rocket landing ballet

SpaceX

This picture shows Falcon Heavy's twin side boosters landing successfully after the rocket's maiden flight, on Feb. 6, 2018. While the booster stages touched down safely at Landing Zones 1 and 2 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, near the Kennedy Space Center, the rocket's core stage hit the ocean at high speed. The rocket stage carrying the Tesla car underwent one last burn to send the car toward the orbit of Mars. However, as Space.com sister site Live Science reported, radiation could destroy the car within a year.

Riding inside the Dragon

SpaceX

While launching commercial missions, SpaceX also began developing a human-rated version of the Dragon spacecraft to bring astronauts to the International Space Station. The company received a contract in 2014 valued at a maximum of $2.6 billion for these launch services. In September 2015, SpaceX showed the world the inside of the crew quarters. The minimalist design has white walls, black bucket seats, several flat-panel displays and four windows for passengers to see outside.

Crew Dragon vs. cargo

SpaceX

SpaceX intended that the crew and cargo versions of Dragon be very similar, in order to speed up development of the crewed ship. "This commonality simplifies the human-rating process, allowing systems critical to crew and space station safety to be fully tested on unmanned cargo flights.," SpaceX stated.

Crew Dragon flight tests

Ben Cooper/SpaceX

SpaceX is hard at work on developing the crewed Dragon for two commercial crew test-flights, which will fly no earlier than late 2018. NASA is trying to wean itself off dependence on the Russian Soyuz vehicle that currently ferries all astronauts to the International Space Station. Each astronaut seat on the Soyuz costs NASA millions of dollars. Also, the agency tries to use U.S. launch services for launch when possible. The last crewed launch from U.S. soil took place in 2011, during the last flight of the space shuttle program.

More Falcon Heavy flights

SpaceX

Falcon Heavy launches are sold for about $90 million apiece, compared with $62 million for Falcon 9 launches. SpaceX plans to launch two more Falcon Heavy missions in 2018: one carrying the Arabsat 6A communications satellite and the other hoisting Space Test Program 2 for the U.S. Air Force (along with the Planetary Society's LightSail 2).

The Falcon 9 Block 5

Elon Musk/Instagram

In May 2018, SpaceX unveiled the fifth and final version of the company's Falcon 9 rocket: the Block 5 booster. Designed for maximum reusability (the target is at least 10 flights), this booster will launch astronauts into space on Dragon capsules for NASA. The first Falcon 9 Block 5 rocket was built to launch Bangabandhu-1, the first communications satellite for the country of Bangladesh. 

Starship and Super Heavy

SpaceX

Starship and Super Heavy make up a futuristic system intended for Mars exploration. In its Red Planet configurations, the BFR will be 348 feet (106 m) tall (including the spaceship) and capable of bringing 150 tons (136 metric tons) to low Earth orbit. Each rocket will carry about 100 people, and the rocket will be fully reusable. Musk said he plans to use this rocket in fleets, bringing hundreds or thousands of passengers at a time to Mars. In the 2020s, Musk plans to halt all Falcon lines except for BFR, which would perform all sorts of missions. Destinations would range from Mars to the International Space Station to orbits that would launch satellites near Earth.

 Op de Amerikaanse lanceerbasis Cape Canaveral in Florida is de Crew Dragon gelanceerd, een ruimtecapsule van het ruimtevaartbedrijf SpaceX van Elon Musk. De operatie is succesvol verlopen en de stuwraketten zijn teruggekeerd naar de aarde. De capsule vliegt nu zelfstandig in de ruimte. Als alles goed gaat, moet SpaceX in juli voor de allereerste keer astronauten naar het internationaal ruimtestation ISS brengen.

Het zou voor het eerst zijn dat een commercieel bedrijf zoiets doet. Vandaag is alleen een dummy aan boord: Ripley, naar de heldin uit de bekende Alien-films.

De ruimtecapsule werd om 8.49 uur Belgische tijd gelanceerd, 2.49 uur plaatselijke tijd. Vannacht meldde SpaceX dat alle systemen paraat waren en ook het weer goed zat. De Crew Dragon en de Falcon 9-raket - waarop die bevestigd is - vertrokken vanop het historische Launch Complex 39A op Cape Canaveral, waar in de jaren 60 en 70 ook de legendarische Apollovluchten van ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA naar de maan vertrokken.

Testvlucht

De testvlucht zal in totaal zes dagen duren. Morgen komt de capsule met Ripley aan boord aan bij het ISS, waar ze volautomatisch zal aankoppelen. Als de drie bewoners van het ruimtestation de 200 kilogram materiaal en voorraden aan boord uitgeladen hebben en de spullen die ze niet meer nodig hebben ingeladen, zal de Crew Dragon op 8 maart terugkeren naar de aarde.
Tijdens de vlucht zullen de NASA en SpaceX gegevens verzamelen. Ripley – die het strakke witte ruimtepak van SpaceX draagt dat ook toekomstige astronauten aan zullen hebben – is uitgerust met sensoren, die de impact van de reis op de dummy moeten meten. Dat zullen immers ook krachten zijn die de astronauten zullen ondervinden. Indien nodig zullen na de vlucht nog aanpassingen aan het toestel of de stuwraketten gebeuren. Als alles goed gaat, gaan dan in juli de allereerste echte astronauten aan boord van een toestel van SpaceX.

Dat zal overigens een historisch moment zijn. Het is intussen acht jaar geleden dat er nog astronauten naar de ruimte vertrokken vanop Amerikaans bodem. Ze moeten nu nog ‘meeliften’ met Russische toestellen.video_placeholder.png

Nog even geen buitenaards boorrecord voor Marslander Insight - HLN.be

 Marslander Insight, het jongste project van de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA op de rode planeet, is begonnen met boren in het oppervlakte van Mars. Helemaal vlotjes verloopt dat nog niet vanwege dwarsliggende stenen.

De door Polen en Duitsland gefabriceerde boormachine van de Marslander is op keien gestuit die het vooralsnog lastig maken dieper te gaan. Bedoeling was tot vijf meter diep te gaan maar vooralsnog komt de boor niet verder dan een centimeter of vijftig, bevestigt het German Aerospace Center. Volgens de ingenieurs werkt de ‘hamerboor’ goed, maar zit het tegen wat betreft de boorplek door onvoorziene stenen. 

Als een diepte van vijf meter wordt gehaald is dat een buitenaards record, aldus NASA. Bedoeling van het boren is onder meer de ondergrondse temperatuur te meten. Volgens de ingenieurs kan de robotgestuurde arm met de boor de problemen oplossen, maar dat kost tijd.

Onderzoek

InSight (de naam staat voor: Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport) is een missie van het zogeheten ‘NASA’s Discoveryprogramma’ om de inwendige structuur van Mars en andere planeten te onderzoeken. Insight landde afgelopen november op de rode planeet en heeft al prachtige foto’s gestuurd en ook opnames gemaakt van de wind op de rode planeet. Er is ook een seismometer geplaatst om eventuele aardbevingen te registreren.

Marslander InSight landde op 26 november 2018 geland in het gebied Elysium Planitia, een vlakte nabij de evenaar van Mars. Voor de liefhebber: op ongeveer 600 km afstand van de Gale krater waar in 2012 het Marswagentje Curiosity is geland.
