Ancient Writing Reveals Mythological Weapon Hiding In Crater On Moon, UFO Sighting News.

Guys, I found the letters VEL with an arrow after it pointing up. I believe that this is referring to the ancient holy mythological spear VEL in which a goddess embodied all her powers into the spear so that it can protect her son in battle. Its an ancient religious holy relic which is still worshiped and celebrated in countries today. I believe that this holy relic spear has powers that were given not by a goddess, but by an advanced alien race that were godlike and the mother made this weapon to protect her son in battle. Much like Thor was given a hammer from his father. 

I also believe that the arrow at the end of the word VEL is a spear, pointing to where the ancient spear is hidden. This is in Jackson Crater on Earths moon. What better way to hide a relic from humanity than to place it on a moon orbiting the planet? VEL is real and it could be a dangers weapon in the wrong hands.

UFO Seen During Daytime Causes Camera To Die, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: August 9, 2019
Location of sighting: Unknown

This UFO glowed brightly during sunset as they were driving down the dirt road. However the camera battery suddenly died, making the video very short. UFOs often cause electronic disruption...as seen with the camera cutting out. The person is speaking Spanish and you can clearly hear their astonishment at what they were seeing. Many times the outer hull of UFOs will appear to be bright light. Maybe its the propulsion that causes that or maybe they think appearing as light is less frightening for eyewitnesses. Either way, many UFO reports do report of glowing objects. This looks 100% real. I believe the area has a high chance of being Mexico from its appearance.

UFO Seeding Drones Over Jackson, Wyoming On Security Cam, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: August 11, 2019

Location of sighting: Jackson, Wyoming, USA

This is a great video of a UFO over Jackson, Wyoming last weekend. This is not just a disk, but an orb maker. Its planting orb drones every so often to cover and record an area. At 2:36 it becomes very bright...and produces a drone...which you can see below it. This is a rare catch. I only see a video of a seeding event every few years. This video is teaching us why the UFO came. To gather intel. Also, it will come back for the mini drones in a few weeks. Till then the mini drones fly around from cloud to cloud, usually cloaked, but can be easily seen with an infrared camera. They will follow birds, planes and explore while recording everything.

News states: 

The reader who sent in the video, who wishes to remain anonymous for her job’s sake, was working a night shift and decided to keep an eye on the webcam at Spring Creek Ranch, from SeeJH because she knew the Perseid Meteor Shower was active and she might catch a glimpse. Then, at right around 3:41 a.m., she saw something on the screen that caught her eye. “My coworker thought something was broken on the camera,” she said. It could have been a meteor, but it was moving too slowly and seemingly too close to the ground. A plane, perhaps? “I checked online, there weren’t any flights that I could find at that time.” Buckrail also checked the flight log database on US Department of Transportation website and no flights are recorded in that airspace at that time.

Ancient Face Found On Mars In Rover Photo, 100% Evidence That Aliens Existed There! UFO Sighting News.

Stone face North Carolina:  

• https://www.newsobserver.com/news/state/north-carolina/article233079322.html

I found some faces in a Mars photo today. I think the faces are literally the most important discovery a person can make next to actually finding a living alien life form. The faces tell us what they saw, what they looked like, what they feared. It shows us the character of the person, are they forgiving, kind, thoughtful, cruel, angry, mean, feared. A single face tells us so many things its unbelievable.

 

For some people its nothing, they fear that someone will label them as crazy. But when a stone ancient face was found on Earth in North Carolina last month...everyone could see it...even though its characteristics were less defining and less detailed than the faces I show you here today. Just because I found it on Mars...people are afraid...because if they say....yes...then they are literally changing everything they were ever taught and programed to think about life.  That...is a frightening thing for anyone to encounter.

Was Atlantis Seen From Space Or Just Pixelation? You Decide. UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Aug 12, 2019

Location of sighting: Earths orbit 

Source: NASA space station cam

I was watching the space station live cam when I noticed the same structures under the ocean many times. What I mean is that the cam was not live at all but playing the same video all week. I saw these buildings and decide to record them. Once I enlarged them I became confident that these were ancient ruins under the ocean. Watch in the video how you can see the reflection of the sun off the surface of the water on the upper right part of the video. The long white trail...is a contrail from a jet. often seen from orbit, not a river as some suggested. This may be the lost city of Atlantis. I see no other known city of such size. Those buildings are hundreds of miles across!

Flying Orb Caught On Forest Cam Observing Deer, Video, Aug 2019, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: August 8, 2019

This orb was recorded on a deer cam a few nights ago. The orb is seen near the animals, observing and following them as they eat the grass. These orbs are thought to be alien drones which enable aliens to see, hear and even feel the things around the orb drone. Most aliens cannot live with our air, gravity, bacteria and other elements that may be fatal to them. Each species adapts to their own planets environment and each planet has a different environment in which life sprung forth. For instance we often make the mistake that all life must breath air...but its not true. For instance two years ago Russian astronauts cleaning the space stations solar panels found reported finding giant plankton living on the solar panels in space without air. Of course NASA ignored this and never reported anything about it, but Russia got credit for finding the first alien life on that day. 

Humans are not the only interest to aliens, our whole planet and every living thing on it is of interest to them. This camera has an infrared filter on it and flashes an IR light allowing it to see anything in the area, even if it was cloaked. A normal camera might not pick up this orb in the daytime.

President Kennedy Was Killed To Stop Disclosure Of Aliens, Will Bernie Sanders Be Next? UFO Sighting News.

Date of announcement: August 2019

Sen. Bernie Sanders promises to reveal the truth about aliens if he ever becomes president in the 2020 presidential election. Now the problem here is that most people believe the president can just say what they want and do what they want when it comes to aliens. Thats not true at all. President Kennedy was assassinated by the CIA or MIB in order to stop him from releasing information about the existence of aliens. Its true, I was first to publish it in my book "UFO Sightings of 2006-2008." Where I first publish a document that I had found that revealed a memo from president Kennedy to NASA telling them to reveal all information NASA has learned about space to the public...less than a week later he was dead. Now many people tried to take credit for my hard work by saying they discovered the document...all were published after my book. But I'm use to that happening. 

What I'm saying is any president who thinks he can reveal the truth...will be killed by the CIA. No president not even Trump has the courage or the power to reveal the existence of intelligent aliens.

Space Station Found At Orion Constellation! Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Aug 2019
Location of discovery: Orion Constellation

I have been using this map program a few years now and have kept loads of things I have found in a file, this object being one of them. This giant blue crystal-like space station is out there near the Orion Constellation near the back foot. In the video I thought it was the head are, my bad. 

Clearly aliens can build a space station any way they want and this one seems to have a very artistic appearance to it. If your species is so advanced that their technology is millions of years ahead of our own, then they wont need planets any longer. They literally can chose to create their own planet size space stations and move from place to place in the universe. I would love to meet this species. It looks like a very creative species. 

If you can help me out by liking my video and subscribing, I sure would appreciate it. Thanks,

Alien Buildings Found In Crater On Moon In NASA Index! Can We Take It Over? UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Aug 9, 2019
Location of discovery: Earths moon, Dionysius crater
NASA Source: 

• http://lroc.sese.asu.edu/posts/443
  

I found a lot of alien structures, some are buildings and others appear to be landed ships. The structures are all silver metallic objects with shiny white reflective windows. These buildings are very old, but out in the vacuum of space structures can remain intact for millions of years. 

I imagine that one of these structures would easily be taken over by a group of human traveling to the moon and would make a great starting point for someone like Jeff Bezos space exploration program Blue Origins. The structure are right there, ripe for the taking, and waiting for new occupants and with the alien tech inside they should have power for hundreds of years. Can you see it? Blue Origins Space City at Dionysius crater becoming the next vacation resort.

UFOs Caught Visiting The Space Station, Close Up, High Detail! Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: May 12, 2019

Location of sighting: Space Station

This is one of the most extraordinary UFOs I have ever seen at the space station. Youtube user Tom Brown caught something on the space station live cam that is mind blowing. Two triangle UFOs move upward and within view of the camera, at that point the UFOs realise that they have been seen and move away, vanishing into the darkness of space. The camera also notices the UFOs and tries to move away from that location. UFOs often move in pairs, I have seen orbs in pairs move like this, but never triangle UFOs and never this close with such amazing detail. And we see each one is a different color, one red larger craft and one smaller grey-brown craft. These are 100% alien craft watching over the space station.

DE UFO-INVASIE VAN WASHINGTON IS NOOIT OPGEHELDERD ( VIDEO )

Gedurende twee weekenden in 1952 was heel Amerika in de ban van een ufo invasie boven Washington. 

Talloze getuigen zagen ze, ze zijn gefilmd, militaire jets probeerden ze te achtervolgen en nooit is er een fatsoenlijke verklaring gekomen.

De gebeurtenissen die toen plaatsvonden worden ook wel omschreven als "The Big Flap" en het begon allemaal kort voor middernacht op zaterdag 19 juli 1952. 

Op dat moment zag luchtverkeersleider Edward Nugent op zijn radarscherm op Washington National Airport zeven traag bewegende objecten die in niets leken op militaire of burgervliegtuigen. 

Hij riep zijn baas erbij en zei voor de grap dat hij een vloot vliegende schotels op zijn scherm zag. 

Op hetzelfde moment waren er nog twee verkeersleiders die een vreemd fel licht zagen dat stil leek te hangen en toen plotseling met een enorme snelheid wegschoot. 

Op het nabijgelegen militaire vliegveld Andrews Air Force Base zagen verkeersleiders ook vreemde onbekende blips op hun radarschermen. Objecten die plotsklaps wegschoten met naar schatting snelheden hoger dan 10.000 kilometer per uur. 

Eén van de verkeersleiders op Andrews keek door het raam naar buiten en zei dat hij iets zag dat leek op een oranje vuurbol met een staart. 

Een burgerpiloot die op dat moment in dat gebied vloog maakte melding van zes langgerekte felle lichten die eruit zagen als vallende sterren. 

Vervolgens zagen de verkeersleiders op hun schermen dat de ufo’s langs het Capitool en het Witte Huis vlogen, waarna ze opeens weg waren. 


De kranten in die tijd stonden bol van de spannende verhalen over de gebeurtenis.

Maar, dat was nog niet het einde van de ufo’s, want de volgende zaterdag waren ze terug boven de Amerikaanse hoofdstad. 

Hetzelfde soort blips verscheen op de radarschermen en dit keer werden er twee jets de lucht in gestuurd om polshoogte te nemen. 

Het waren twee F-94 jets die op zoek gingen naar de vreemde objecten.

Echter, er gebeurde iets bijzonders, want iedere keer als ze door de verkeersleiders naar een bepaalde positie werden gedirigeerd en daar aan kwamen, waren de objecten plots verdwenen. 

Eindelijk zag één van de piloten zelf een fel licht in de verte en zette de achtervolging in. 

“Ik probeerde contact te maken met de “bogies” op een hoogte van minder dan 1000 voet”, zei de piloot later tegen de pers. “Ik vloog met maximum snelheid, maar zelfs toen kwam ik helemaal niet dichterbij. Ik heb uiteindelijk de achtervolging maar opgegeven, want ik had geen schijn van kans om ze in te halen”.

Direct na deze gebeurtenissen was er verwarring alom en had de luchtmacht nog niet echt de gelegenheid gehad om een goed verhaal te bedenken, hetgeen blijkt uit de volgende videoclip waar Tyler van Secureteam deze week mee kwam. 

Het is een verklaring van generaal majoor Samford die gewoon toegeeft dat ze niet weten wat hier allemaal gebeurde. 



Later werd uiteraard de hele gebeurtenis zoals gewoonlijk in de doofpot gestopt en kwam de luchtmacht met een verklaring dat hier sprake was geweest van een temperatuurinversie, hetgeen een soort mirage effect veroorzaakt zou hebben. 

Kortom, iedereen zou dingen hebben gezien die er niet echt waren. Aangezien dit gebeurde in een tijd alle mensen nog geloofden wat kranten drukten en deze het verhaal van de inversie allemaal braaf plaatsten, verdween deze fenomenale gebeurtenis naar de achtergrond. 

Echter, zoals we zes jaar geleden al schreven, er zat nog een bijzonder staartje aan dit verhaal.

Hier een deel uit dat artikel: 

Het merkwaardige echter, afgezien van de bijzondere waarnemingen, was dat de Amerikaanse luchtmacht, De Los Angeles Herald Examiner en Life Magazine ongeveer een week voordat de waarnemingen begonnen aangetekende brieven ontvingen waarin werd meegedeeld dat deze gebeurtenis zou gaan plaatsvinden. 

Deze brieven waren afkomstig van George van Tassel. Hij stond in contact met buitenaardse beschavingen. Hij was ook de eerste die de naam “channeling” gebruikte om te kunnen differentiëren tussen zijn manier van communiceren en die van spirituele mediums. 

Al op heel jeugdige leeftijd had Van Tassel grote belangstelling voor vliegen en het duurde dan ook niet lang voordat hij zijn vliegbrevet had. Voor de oorlog werkte hij jaren als testpiloot en gedurende de Tweede Wereldoorlog heeft hij veel gevlogen met de beroemde Howard Hughes. 

Na de oorlog had hij genoeg van de hectiek en opende zelf een klein vliegveld in de woestijn in Californië, Great Rock genaamd. Het is dan ook op dit vliegveld waar een UFO is geland in 1953 en George voor het eerst fysiek contact maakte met de buitenaardsen. 

George had voor het eerst contact met de buitenaardsen in 1952 en dat was wanneer ze hem vertelden dat ze naar de aarde waren gekomen vanwege hun zorgen omdat de mens erin was geslaagd een atoombom te ontwikkelen en te laten ontploffen. Sinds die tijd zijn ze eigenlijk ook permanent op aarde omdat de mensheid tot op de dag van vandaag niet heeft laten zien dat we geen gevaar meer opleveren voor de rest van het zonnestelsel. 

George van Tassel die in 1978 is overleden, had ook het grote voorrecht om mee te gaan voor een vlucht in een UFO. Daarnaast heeft hij veel informatie ontvangen ondermeer over tijdreizen. 

Nu is er een zeldzame video opgedoken van een oud interview met George van Kassel uit 1968. Kijk en luister wat hij te vertellen had op televisie destijds in een uitzending die op 18 juni 1968 werd uitgezonden.

VREEMD OBJECT ONTDEKT IN STERRENBEELD ORION ( VIDEO )

Het sterrenbeeld Orion is fascinerend, omdat er veel verbanden te vinden zijn met onze aarde. 

Van de Egyptische piramiden, tot de tweede ster en de miermensen van de Hopi indianen, allen wijzen zij naar Orion waar nu een vreemd groot object is ontdekt.

En dat verhaal schijnt inderdaad te kloppen, want iedereen kan met behulp van een bepaald programma zelf kijken en dit object ontdekken. 

Het is een programma van de American Astronomical Society en het heet Worldwide Telescope. 

Met behulp van dit programma heeft Scott helemaal bovenin het sterrenbeeld Orion het volgende bizar ogende object ontdekt.

Wanneer je het beeld plat neerlegt, ziet het er zo uit:

Een opmerkelijk gegeven is dat de beelden die door de American Astronomical Society worden gebruikt niet afkomstig zijn van Google. 

Wij weten niet of bij Google hetzelfde object te vinden is, maar zo niet dan zegt dat nog weinig omdat Google nogal eens beelden censureert. 

In de volgende video vertelt Scott wat meer over zijn ontdekking. 

Wat het ook is, de afmetingen van het object zijn enorm. Is het een enorm ruimtestation van buitenaardsen zoals Scott denkt, of is het misschien toch iets in de software wat dit veroorzaakt. 

In de volgende video die we van de lezer kregen, wat meer achtergrond over waarom de Orion nevel voor ons mensen zo interessant is.

Ook de miermensen van de Hopi’s zijn afkomstig uit de Orion Nevel. 

De Hopi geloven in een eeuwige cyclus van schepping en vernietiging. Hierdoor worden er onophoudelijk werelden geschapen en vernietigd. De eerste wereld werd vernietigd door vuur, de tweede door vorst en de derde door een zondvloed. Wij leven in de 4de wereld, deze wereld zou vol met pijn, leed en erg hard zijn. De Hopi overleefden de vernietiging van de derde wereld door zich ondergronds terug te trekken. Dit zal nog tweemaal gebeuren, maar alleen zij met een puur hart kunnen deze plek betreden. Ondergronds leven de miermensen, zij worden beschreven als bleek met grote hoofden en zwarte ogen. Ze hebben kleine lichaampjes, met dunne armen en soms 6 vingers. De miermensen tonen verbazend veel overeenkomst met de greys 

Niet alleen de miermensen komen daar vandaan, maar ook nog iets anders en beiden worden uitgebreid beschreven door Evert Jan Poorterman. 

Uit mijn verhaal (zie de complete 142 afleveringen) dat de tweede ster, de bij-Zon Ra (of Anu of Gud) afkomstig is uit de Orion-Nevel (de kraamkamer van jonge sterren) uit het zogenaamde Orion-sterrenstelsel. Dat in acht genomen hebbende is het niet zo heel vreemd dat de ‘miermensen’, aldus de Hopi in Amerika, volgens hen afkomstig zijn van Orion. Niet alleen omdat hun lijven de vorm blijken te hebben van een Mier en dat die Mier weer lijkt op de vorm van Orion, maar ook omdat ze zich evoluëerden op de planeten rond de tweede ster Ra. Hun essentie, hun ‘sterrenstof’ komt van Orion, eenvoudigweg omdat ze meekwamen met de jonge nog ‘vuurbrakende’ ster!

GRAANCIRKEL REUSEN, NEDERLAND HOUDT MOGELIJK VERBAND MET KOMST TWEEDE STER...

We schreven onlangs een artikel over een nieuwe graancirkel bij het Brabantse plaats Reusel. 

Net zoals graancirkels al eeuwenlang voorkomen, zo kan deze wel eens verwijzen naar de komst van de tweede ster.

Dit artikel hoort thuis in de categorie die je op-ed artikelen zou kunnen noemen. Het woord op-ed is een afkorting voor “opposite the editorial page” en zijn artikelen die worden geschreven door een gastauteur. Ze weerspiegelen vaak een eigen mening en/of visie die niet per definitie hoeft overeen te komen de mening/visie van de redactie. 

Daarnaast zijn er nog ook nog lezersbrieven, incidentele stukken die door lezers geschreven kunnen worden en eventueel gepubliceerd, waarvoor hetzelfde geldt. 

Ik verbaas me ten hoogste dat... anno 2020, want daar zijn we bijna, er nog mensen zijn die schaamte voelen opkomen of gene hebben te melden dat ze tijdens een wandeling vreemde tekeningen in een veld zien! Graancirkels of het 'graancirkelfenomeen' (bodemgliephen, afdrukken...) is nu ruim veertig jaren in de publiciteit, maar bestaat al eeuwen. Velen hebben zich over het fenomeen gebogen; letterlijk en figuurlijk, van wetenschapper tot bevlogen amateur of geïnspireerde spirituele waarheidsvinder. 

Er is binnen het fenomeen veel gaande, op allerlei niveaus. En onderzoek heeft al heel veel opgeleverd, maar ook heel veel nog niet. Ik ben er bij betrokken geraakt door twee formaties bij Brummen waar ik woon... en als maatje van Robert Boerman gingen we op onderzoek uit en werden we lid van de 'graancirkelclub' in Nederland en bezochten we tweejaarlijks de bijeenkomsten in Epe (later soms ook op andere locaties). Daar werden foto's getoond en gemaakte video's en hoorden we de verhalen uit eerste hand. 

Leuke mensen en beslist niet gek... maar wel allemaal met een gezonde interesse in het onvermijdelijke fenomeen dat ons in het hart raakt. Veel van die geïnteresseerden hebben diepere verlangens en zoeken op meerdere terreinen naar bevrediging van hun innerlijke honger naar weten en naar kennis en inzicht in het hogere, het diepere en willen graag doordringen in de essentie van al wat is. Dat onbewuste mensen hen 'kraken' in de media of de 'afbeeldingen' gewoon wegmaaien door angst, ongeloof, religie is kwetsend. 

Ik ben niet direct betrokken, maar het fenomeen blijft me interesseren omdat ik linken zie met de eindtijd, de komst van de tweede ster en met de 'anunnaki'. We zijn een tijdmoment binnen gegleden waarin we van het Vissen-tijdperk naar het Waterman-tijdperk gaan (Vissen = saamhorigheid, Waterman = communicatie/egoïsme), we door het stof van een ster zijn gegaan (supernova, SN1989), we door een fotonenzône zouden gaan (kan het sterrenstof zijn van die SN1989), er een einde komt aan de Kali Joega en... 

dat de tweede ster weer terugkeert in ons zonnestelsel, nà een reis van 3600 jaren. We zitten op een kruispunt van tijd en ruimte, want er zou ook een dimensie-stap gemaakt moeten worden om aansluiting te blijven houden (of te verkrijgen nadat we door de 'anunnaki' geblokkeerd werden en onttrokken aan de natuurlijke voortgang van de tijd in de Melkweg) met de voortgang en ontwikkeling van de Melkweg. Daarbij willen krachten de 'anunnaki' van deze planeet verdrijven en zal oorlog ons deel worden. 

Wellicht willen bepaalde oerkrachten contact maken met de open en meer bewuste mensen, die rede en hart laten oordelen (geestkracht en intuïtie/gevoel) over wat zich aanbied in de velden en akkers. Er schijnt een 'kracht' te zijn die dat contact wil, maar niet met iedereen. Legermachten willen ook doordringen in het fenomeen en houden de enthousiaste onderzoekers nauwlettend in de gaten. Achter de schermen zijn velen actief met dit fenomeen, terwijl de mensen in het veld worden weg gezet als 'aluhoedjes'... 

naïeve dromers, kleurrijk volk, onnozele wereldverbeteraars en futuristische nerds. Dat mag deels zo zijn, maar binnen dat tot die formaties in de gewassen aangetrokken volk zitten lieden die naar de essentie van de boodschappen zoeken. Die willen doordringen en contact maken... of gewoon het fenomeen kunnen verklaren omdat het rust geeft. Wat de motivatie ook is; velen zullen geroepen worden, doch enkelen zijn uitver'koren'! hahaha... Ik zie in deze 'eenvoudige' grasformatie uiteraard een link met de tweede ster.

Egyptische RA als veerboot (pendelschip) op zijn ruimtereis... rode ster onderweg door de ruimte...

AdinkRAhene - hoofdsymbool van de Adinkra in Afrika (Ashanti-volk)... staat voor grootheid en charisma en leiderschap...

Egyptische RA, ook geheim teken van de Illuminatie (boven); buitenste cirkel is hun reikwijdte, stip zijn de Illuminatie zelf... het zou ook een teken zijn voor/van heksen/wicca... Het stelt RA voor (eronder), de tweede Zon, de bij-Zon en die zou vijf keer groter zijn dan Jupiter (5 x 140.000 kilometer is 700.000 kilometer in doorsnee) en dat is iets meer dat de helft van de Zon (1.393.000 kilometer). Als de tweede ster dichterbij de Zon komt komen meegevoerde gassen vrij (groenblauw ioniserend licht) en komt magma naar buiten en gaat het stomen... Ruimtewateren gaan condenseren... en zo bouwt de tweede Zon een enorm halo op, aureool of nimbus, een kortdurende atmosfeer van stof, stoom en gassen. De tweede ster zal daarom opzwellen tot groter dan de Zon.

Sieraad 'God' (Bangrui kristal) voor vrouwen in Ghana... rode ster met 'uitstraling'...

In drie stappen groeit de ster naar het dubbele en driedubbele van zijn oorspronkelijke formaat. Zo lijkt het wel bij Reusel in het gras. Ster RA zwelt op, wordt dubbelgroot en zelfs driedubbel groot... en bouwt tijdelijk een dichte atmosfeer op. Hij staat dan NiBiRu ofwel, 'hoog aan de hemel' en klimt hoger dan de Zon. Hij is dan ook groter dan de Zon en werkelijk indrukwekkend. Veel mensen zakken ineen op straat, krijgen spontaan hartvarkens, happen naar lucht en blijven dood achter na dit aanschouwd te hebben. 

Ik ben geen graancirkeldeskundige (graancirkel, cropcircle, kornkreise, gewasformatie, bodemglief/glieph), maar ben wel sinds 1998 bezoeker van de bijeenkomsten van de 'graancirkelclub' in Nederland. En zoals ik aangeef omdat ik verwantschap zie met de komst van de tweede ster en de eindtijd. De boodschappen zijn er niet voor niets nu. Er is wat gaande en er is iets op komst. Dat was en is mijn insteek. 

Nou ja... ik weet er wel het nodige van af inmiddels uiteraard. De echte liggen altijd op leylijnen/krachtlijnen of krachtcentra... totdat het één keer niet zo was. Ze spelen met ons. Ook het vinden van wit poeder of een witachtige substantie (zeer zuivere vorm van silicium/Si14 – heb een potje vol met dat spul = 99% zuiver silicium en dat vindt je hier niet in die zuivere vorm – hooguit 25,7% zuiver silicium in de aardekorst – in Silicon Valley smachten ze naar dat spul dat als halfgeleider kan dienen in de steeds snellere computers. Om deze zuivere vorm te verkrijgen zou men een mega-miljoenen kostende fabriek/laboratorium moeten bouwen en dan is die 99% nog niet haalbaar) duidt op de echtheid en de gebarsten knopen van de gewasstengels (door extreme hitte geëxplodeerd) en/of dode vliegen die vastkleven aan de aren en stengels. En dan nog beweren grappenmakers 's nachts zo'n formatie gemaakt te hebben met een plank aan twee touwen (model schommel)... en met een tot vizier gebogen koperen draad aan hun pet bevestigd hahaha! Doe het maar eens in het donker; een perfecte formatie leggen op de kruising van een of meerdere krachtlijnen. Niet voor niets is het leger (Engeland) zeer geïnteresseerd in het fenomeen. In Nederland is dat volgens mij niet het geval; wel eens een afgevaardigde van de regering in verband met de 'voedsel en warenwet' als ik me niet vergis.

BUITENAARDSE LANDING IN BRABANT, NEDERLAND?

Een klein dorp in Brabant, niet ver van de Belgische grens, lijkt behoorlijk wat buitenaardse belangstelling te trekken. 

Er zijn berichten van een getuige die een driehoekig object zag opstijgen en er verschijnen foto’s van een nieuwe graancirkel.

Eerder dit jaar (juni) publiceerden wij het volgende over dit dorp en een mysterieuze graancirkel die opeens verscheen.

Het blijft een fascinerend fenomeen, die graancirkels en nog steeds jaar na jaar verschijnen ze weer.

Over het algemeen zijn de graancirkels die in Nederland worden aangetroffen wat minder spectaculair dan die in Engeland en de boeren in ons land schijnen ook wat minder geduld te hebben dat die in het buitenland.

Zo werd er vorig jaar een graancirkel ontdekt in Zevenbergen en zoals we toen schreven, maakte de boer er korte metten mee 

En nu ontvangen we het volgende bericht van een lezer (dank!) uit Reusel in Noord Brabant over wederom een graancirkel in die provincie.

Het bericht luidt als volgt:

Toen ik met mijn hond ging wandelen zag ik op de hoek Laarakkerdijk, Schepersweijer in Reusel een grote tekening in de vorm van 3 cirkels. Deze stond in het gras. 

Ik durf het bijna niet te zeggen want ik ben een nuchtere Reuselse boer maar het leek nog het meest op een graancirkel. Ik durfde er eerst geen melding van te maken omdat ik bang ben voor gek verklaard te worden maar zag op FB dat een boer er een foto van gemaakt heeft met zijn drone.

Zie bijlage. Is dit een UFO waarneming of kan dit ook door bijvoorbeeld windmolens komen? Die staan er enkele in dat gebied.

Tot zover de lezer.

Nee, het lijkt ons niet dat windmolens dit soort structuren in het graan kunnen veroorzaken. Er is natuurlijk altijd de mogelijkheid dat dit door mensenhanden is gemaakt en in dat geval zouden wij graag horen van diegenen die dit gemaakt hebben.

Wat wij ervan kunnen maken is dat het de stand van 3 hemellichamen representeert. Daarbij zouden we misschien de zon zien met de aarde en daartussen een andere planeet? Het lijkt in ieder geval dat er aandacht wordt gevraagd voor een stand van bepaalde planeten, uitgelijnd op een bepaalde manier.

En dan is er met zoals de meeste graancirkels geen enkele "logische verklaring" met betrekking tot de makers, behalve dat ze door ons onbekende entiteiten of vliegende objecten (ufo's) zijn gemaakt.

We horen graag van lezers wat hun gedachten zijn over deze graancirkel en wat deze zou kunnen uitbeelden. Je kunt ons emailen via redactie (apenstaart) niburu.co

We zijn nu een aantal maanden verder en nu schijnt er wederom iets aan de hand te zijn in Reusel. 

Via een lezer ontvingen wij het volgende bericht en een aantal foto’s (dank!). 

Er is afgelopen nacht (zondag op maandagnacht) wederom een vreemd object gezien. Deze keer een hard bonzend geluid en lichtflitsen. Er wordt een driehoekig voorwerp gerapporteerd. Tevens heeft een buurt bewoner melding gemaakt van cirkels in zijn gras. Dit lijkt veel op de ervaringen die ik eerder met jullie deelde. 

Is er vaker wat binnengekomen? 

Ik denk ik laat het weten, wellicht de moeite waard om eens te onderzoeken. Ik hoop dat iemand kan vertellen wat het is. 

Dit zijn de bijgevoegde foto’s.

Een getuige vertelt verder letterlijk een driehoekig object te zien opstijgen en een vreemd geluid te horen (een soort van luid bonzen) rond een uur of één in de nacht van zondag op maandag. 

De foto’s schijnen op Facebook te zijn gedeeld door ene Piet Huijbregts, waarschijnlijk de eigenaar van Huijbregts garage dat grenst aan het veld waar de graancirkels zijn ontdekt. 

We hebben iemand die een soort luid bonzend geluid hoort, naar buiten kijkt en een driehoekig object ziet opstijgen. Wat niet duidelijk is, is of dit gebeurde vanaf hetzelfde veld waar de graancirkels zijn gevonden. 

Dan hebben we iemand anders die de graancirkels ontdekt en dat lijkt een beetje teveel toeval om niets met elkaar te maken te hebben. 

Bovendien zijn er enkele maanden geleden vrijwel identieke graancirkels aangetroffen in Reusel op, zo te zien, een andere locatie in Reusel. 

Het zou mooi zijn als er wat meer duidelijkheid omtrent dit mysterie zou komen. Mochten er mensen zijn die meer weten of die mensen kennen in Reusel die misschien meer weten; alle informatie is welkom.

In June 2019, UFO Researcher Miller captured from the 5th floor roof top balcony with his Ipad at 10.27 several images of the sky in all directions.

After reviewing the images, Miller noticed in one of a the images a huge UFO in the cloud formation.

In the second image the UFO is no longer visible; instead we see that a strange triangle has appeared between the clouds.

Since Miller stated that the location is situated on an ancient Ley-line crossing the magnetic world grid is it quite possible that the UFO probably piloted by extraterrestrials has used the invisible powers and energy coming from the Ley-lines for navigation.

Mysterious force of nature known as Ley-lines, invisible geometric alignments that ran across ancient landscapes, connecting both natural and sacred prehistoric structures such as ancient monuments, stone circles and megaliths together.

All Ley-lines run over the electromagnetic fields of the earth and lead to the planetary Grid.

On August 9, 2019 a strange cloud-like object has been filmed in Spain.

Maybe it is just a cloud in front of the sunrise, but the strange thing is that it is the only cloud, a flying saucer -shaped cloud, in a blue sky.

Could it be a cloaked craft?

On June 16, 2019 during a thunderstorm over Zagreb, Croatia a huge UFO can be seen in the middle of the thunderstorm.

The photographer who submitted the images to Mufon talks about a pyramid-like object, but after enlarging the object it appears to be a clear flying saucer type UFO.

Photographer: I saw something strange in the sky under clouds...pyramid like object was standing there in the moment when thunder strike.

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

What are these flying tubes? The objects are not looking like planes or helicopters, maybe drones or sky-divers? Or another secret project tested by the folk at Area 51?

The photographer who submitted the images to Mufon states: On Aug 8 2019, I was at Area 51 Black Mail Box location. I was taking images of the sky with a 15 second time exposure. When out of the corner of my eye I noticed these two lights darting in and out.

And finally a minute latter launch into a steady eastward direction, controlled and slow. The images will show change in color and proximity of crafts to each other.

The photographer continues to say: I don't think they are helicopters because they just were to close together. When they took off, they flew like regular aircraft as we know in a straight line headed east.

But it appears out of no where!

The light pattern of a middle aged star called KIC 8462852, some 1,480 light-years from Earth suggests that some kind of complex matter structure is circling the star, causing intermittent brightening and dimming by "a mass of objects," according to Prof. Jason Wright, an astronomer at Penn State University.

He told Linda that he and his colleagues are studying all possible natural explanations, and the exotic though unlikely possibility that it could be a "swarm of megastructures" built by an advanced alien civilization to harvest energy from the star.

At the suggestion of the Penn State team, SETI started pointing their Green Bank radio telescope at the unusual star to check for signals.

A stargazer landed the shot of a lifetime on Wednesday after he captured extremely rare footage of a mysterious flash of light on Jupiter, which may have been an elusive meteor explosion.

Texas astrophotographer Ethan Chappel captured the incredible sight while he was filming the planet, and said the event on Jupiter's southern equatorial belt "looks awfully like an impact flash." A bright spot can be seen appearing out of nowhere before it quickly fades away, reports RT.

"After I checked the video and saw the flash, my mind started racing! I urgently felt the need to share it with people who would find the results useful," Chappel told ScienceAlert.

Astronomer Jonti Horner said he had "never seen anything like that before," and described the flash as "just totally breathtaking."

"A lot of the time these things will go unnoticed and unobserved," he explained. "Half of them will happen on the far side of the planet. So there's a lot of things working against seeing these events."

A 1998 study found the rate of large impacts on Jupiter are between 2,000 and 8,000 times the rate of impacts on Earth. Capturing the impacts are rare, however. One was captured in 2009 and again in 2010.

‘Storm Area 51’ Turns Into Festival, May Feature Surprise Performance by Limp Bizkit

Conspiracy theorists and UFO enthusiasts who were originally planning to storm Area 51 may now just be going to party in the desert.

After the creation of a Facebook page for the event to raid the actual military base went viral, the little motel near the secretive Air Force facility started booking up.

The original event “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop All of Us” drew the attention of more than 2 million people who responded to attend the event scheduled for September 20. Several major brands also announced promotional tie-ins, including Bud Light as it announced an Area 51-themed beer and pledged a free drink to any ETs that escaped the facility. Arby’s also revealed that they would have a food truck at the event.

The event creator Matty Roberts is now planning to launch an actual alien-themed festival instead of raiding Area 51. Called as Alienstock, the festival is set to feature arts, live music, and camping under the sky. It is set to take place for the same dates as the original Area 51 event but does not include running faster than bullets and storming Area 51, which is a heavily guarded military base.

According to Alienstock website, the festival will be set in Rachel, a town in Nevada that reportedly holds a population of 54 permanent residents. The site claims to be working with an extraterrestrial-themed motel/restaurant The Little A’Le ‘Inn, which is the only motel/restaurant in the entire town.

The motel/restaurant website does put in a link to the Alienstock website. It announces the inn is booked solid for Alienstock. It also warns visitors to fill up their tanks at nearby towns as there’s no gas available in Rachel.

While no acts have been confirmed for the live music, Limp Bizkit will reportedly be performing in the area. Representatives for Limp Bizkit and Alienstock did not immediately return our requests for comment, but the band did a post on Instagram about performing at S4, a secretive location near Area 51.

US Woman Captures Mysterious Flying Objects Over Texas

A YouTube video showing nine dark dots that made the rounds online has caught the attention of UFO conspiracy enthusiasts. The mysterious objects were reportedly spotted over Odessa in Texas.

The video description states that the driver had spotted the mysterious air show while waiting at a traffic light.

The blogger thought of birds and balloons when she first saw the UFOs but later came to doubt after she noticed that one of the objects was larger and had a different shape. She also observed the larger object starting to flash like it was reflecting light from the sun.

The woman had to stop recording the video when she was going to drive from the traffic lights, but she said that the objects had all disappeared when she had managed to turn the car around.

The video shows two main UFOs with several strange dark spheres encircling them. Conspiracy theorists thought these two UFOs were exploring the area with the dark orbs as their probes.

NASA’s Curiosity Rover Captures Unidentified Glowing Light on the Red Planet

NASA’s Curiosity rover has captured a photograph of a mysterious bright glow on a distant hillside on Mars.

The black and white picture shows the landscape of the desert with high rocky hills in the background.

A little elongated white blob seems to be streaking past in front of the larger rock formations.

The image was taken on June 16, and conspiracy theorists have said the picture is evidence of aliens on the Red Planet.

The probe, which landed on the Martian surface in 2012, is armed with 17 cameras. It has since roamed all over Mars, beaming back large amounts of data along with vast quantities of photos.

On its mast, the rover has two mounted navcams, which look like eyes. The right navcam captured the image in question, but the left camera was not looking in a similar direction.

The appearance of the unidentified white blob has been rapid as it disappears in photos taken immediately before and after.

In 2014, another bright spot in photographs captured by the rover made headlines, and people claimed it was light from an alien hut.

Dozens of UFOs Caught on Video Over Wyoming

The video description states the witness of the strange event saw UFOs that looked like some craft moving across the sky without any sound.

It seems that going into Area 51 might not be necessary to see creatures altogether from another planet as one Facebook event suggests. A mass UFO sighting was recently reported in Wyoming, US.

In a description of the YouTube video showing the UFOs, the phenomenon took place on July 26 over Casper City.

It presented the testimony, quoted by the owner of the YouTube channel Hidden Underbelly 2.0 from the eyewitness, saying the objects in the video were not orbs but rather appeared like crafts moving in complete silence.

The witness said they were not drones as they did not hear the propellers, but they had no idea what were those mysterious aerial things.

Ufo Sightings: No Longer a Mystery

The War Against Ufo Sightings

Usually once you speak about UFO sightings, most people today believe that I mistook it for something else or they may think that it is merely a crap. UFO sightings are now able to easily be captured on video, while it’s through a telephone or video camera. They have become an ever-popular subject. In any event, UFO sightings aren’t something which’s new to society. During February in Minnesota, for instance, only 69 UFO sightings are reported since the start of the 21st century. On weekdays it appears that UFO sightings are driven by men and women that are routinely outside daily, rain or shine.

The Basics of Ufo Sightings That You Can Benefit From Starting Today

Most UFO sightings were reported in the usa, with 26 sightings happening during November. In the Washington Post Dan Drezner implies that the simple fact that the Department of Defense is starting to engage with the notion of UFOs weakens their thesis, but I am not certain that’s right. Before you make a decision as to what you believe, we implore you to comprehend the evidence. For starters, so many folks say reflexively that there’s no evidence of an ET presence engaging our planet, when they don’t really know the evidence. Many still seek out proof of aliens. The evidence might have been much more compelling, in the event the very first recorded incident was not revealed as a hoax. If you’re still not convinced or want to read more evidence an Arizona UFO might not be a laughing matter, you might delight in seeing for yourself, more UFO Evidence.

There are not many fantastic explanations for the majority of the Hudson Valley sightings. Among the arguments that scientists use to debunk UFO sightings is that our planet has existed for at least four billion decades, hence the odds are really small that the aliens would just chance to arrive here during the few decades that we’ve got technology. Despite the fact that there are a lot of questions regarding the JFK assassination, it is a prime example of folks attempting to earn sense about something which you can’t make sense of. Each and every calendar year, this issue of UFOs grows in popularity, and that’s primarily because of the simple fact they’re actually real.

The Foolproof Ufo Sightings Strategy

The most well-known story was about a five year-old community girl who entered the forest simply to return five decades later wearing the very same clothes. Evidently, fake stories appear to find the most positive attention should they promise something spectacular. Which made the story of what it is that they witnessed that night even more curious. There are various haunting stories and unexplained events which are the makings of a multitude of cinematic pleasures.

The video has become the fodder for numerous arguments and debates about the authenticity of the same. It shows three different sightings of suspected UFOs in three different parts of the world. In the proper hands an actual video can be made to look as a hoax but only to a different expert” when examining it. Real videos of any type, on any subject can be placed through a filter to make it resemble a fake. Pictures in magazines are touched up for decades, and video does not need to be much different. Meditative images are also consciously utilised in yoga, for instance, to focus the mind as a way to yield a particular spiritual outcome.

There’s a complete fleet of them, among the pilot said. A number of other pilots have witnessed that same specific thing. Besides that simple fact, it may even be possible to blind a UFO pilot.

Life After Ufo Sightings

Skepticism doesn’t mean doubting everything. Skepticism isn’t cynicism. Skepticism is a means of thinking.

Diamond Shaped Ufo Encounter Over Utah

DECEMBER 15, 2005 ……..SPANISH FORK CITY UTAH

On December 15th, 2005, A friend and I had the following UFO sighting. At 3:30 am, on this morning, with me at the wheel, my friend and I went on a little drive to see the UFO activity in Utah Valley. We focused our attention mainly on two areas.

1-The night sky above Spanish Fork City, Utah.

2-The Spanish Fork City Airport.

Both of us were absolutely astounded, to say the least as we approached Spanish Fork City from the north when we observed one of the biggest UFOs that I’ve ever seen. The diamond-shaped UFO was floating slowly, about 300 feet above this city, moving northbound.

We were fascinated with the camouflaging measures, used by this sinister looking spaceship. Reproduced into this massive UFO’s outer shell, were the lights (yes they were HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE LAMPS) of the city of “Woodland Hills” which is a few miles south of Sp.Fk.

Looking directly at this UFO, one may very well be inclined to believe that they are merely looking at some boring city lights, which we are all so familiar with. This, I believe, is exactly what the Aliens are counting on. In my opinion, it is an absolutely ingenious camouflaging measure.

As I gazed wide-eyed and open-mouthed at this colossal craft which I estimated to be about three city-blocks wide and two blocks tall (please excuse my inarticulate and unscientific terminology), I had an inexplicable and conclusive feeling that I was looking at an “airborne Alien nursery!”

Both of us were also very intrigued by the appearance of two “EYES,” human looking in every way about six-feet in diameter which were placed into the sides of the UFO’s outer shell. The technology which the spaceship exhibited in placing so many lights of various sizes which matched all of the lights of Woodland Hills, revealed a high degree of intelligence, in my opinion, of those who possessed and piloted it!

At the Spanish Fork Airport at 5:30 am, as we sat parked, we observed a strange sight. Rolling slowly down the runway, escorted by a low-flying, egg-shaped UFO, was some type of wheeled unit which appeared to be some type of “star projector.” It was close in size to a typical “potato chip” truck. An astounding number of glistening lights, all of which had the appearance of “stars,” covered this mysterious contraption.

The “projector” looked to be rolling down the runway of the airport. I knew, however, that it could be somewhere else, perhaps far beyond our locale. I have been aware now, for some time, that the Aliens have the technology to mask the precise locations of their hardware and activities, by making their appearance seem always to be “distant” as one approaches those areas.

Our presence did not go unnoticed by the “Aliens” as we quickly perceived that six UFOs of various sizes were gradually moving towards us using the HIDLs around us as “cover.” After aligning the lights of their ships, to the HIDLs, I believe, they can then sneak up on their targets.

Perched menacingly atop a nearby building behind the airport parking lot where we sat in our car, we observed an egg-shaped UFO, about 20 feet-wide and 10 feet-tall creeping up on us. Suddenly (I suspect in an effort to distract us from viewing the “star projector”), its right light got brighter and bigger and split into four quarters; two blue and two red, in color. The red quarters then shifted places with the two blue quarters.

A white light then appeared in the midst of the two red quarters of light, about the size of a silver dollar, which continued to gradually grow in size.

Anticipating that something big was about to happen, I sarcastically said to my friend beside me “I’ll bet a helicopter comes out of it; I was wrong! The white light continued growing in size as it slowly moved towards us.

We watched in absolute awe and suspense as it was quickly transformed into a small, white airplane with two red ipinstripes on it!(something like a small cessna).

Traveling at a speed of what appeared to be only ten m.p.h., it swooped slowly down to land… shining a bright spotlight momentarily at us, as it proceeded to taxi down the runway to a hangar behind the airports offices.

The planes appearance took us back a bit. I felt unhesitatingly obliged to turn the car’s ignition key and punch my foot to the accelerator! At that moment my greatest priority was to rush immediately away from the strangeness of what we had just witnessed!

For the next two hours, we drove around the area – dazed and somewhat confused – wondering to ourselves what might happen next. When we began to feel our bodies experiencing a sudden, extremely uncomfortable fever, I began to be suspicious, that perhaps a small Alien probe was traveling with us, either above or beneath the car which was perhaps emitting some type of radiation.

Stopping the car, I got out and knelt down to look under it. Finding nothing, I walked around the car for a full inspection, as I did, I noticed that one of the “high pressure sodium vapor lights” which was directly behind the local “solid waste transfer station” about 100 yards away, was emitting, or shooting a great many, large, bright orange sparks directly towards us!

We quickly fled the area, placing ourselves well out of range of what I perceived to be some type of weapon intended to dissuade those unwelcome and pesky humans who were in the area, from hanging around and making further observations of the Aliens ongoing activities!

At 7:30 am, as we made our way home, I casually looked back towards Spanish Fork, and was amazed to see two “black helicopters” attending to a slow moving cloud, shaped precisely like the massive UFO which we had been observing with interest throughout the night! It crept slowly away, at the same speed as all of the clouds around it, until it rose up gracefully above the nearby mountains and disappeared.

The photographer was driving home from work when he noticed a disc-shaped object in the clouds above Jaksonville, Floirda.

He was able to take a picture before the UFO vanished and said: "The flying-saucer-shaped object looks nothing like I have ever seen before in my time in the military and outside."

The Rocket Engine for NASA's New Orion Spacecraft Just Aced a Critical Test (Video)

By Chelsea Gohd 

The service module fired its propulsion system continuously for 12 minutes.

The Aug. 5 test was conducted using a qualification version of the propulsion system at NASA’s White Sands Test Facility near Las Cruces, New Mexico. While the system never left the ground, it simulated one of the most taxing situations the spacecraft’s engines could encounter after launch.

The main rocket engine for NASA’s Orion spacecraft, which will be used during the space agency’s Artemis Program, has passed a critical test.

NASA plans to return to the moon by 2024 under direction from the White House. The Artemis Program intends to land more men on the moon as well as the first women.

The propulsion system for Orion’s service module fired continuously for 12 minutes during a test this week, simulating engine activity during an abort-to-orbit scenario. The propulsion system showed it was capable of getting the craft into orbit around the moon if the interim cryogenic propulsion stage (ICPS) had not put the craft on the correct path.

The tests form part of the formulation of a contingency plan that would allow the mission to be completed, in part or entirely, should the launch procedure not go according to plan. Engineers fired Orion’s main engine and all eight of the module’s auxiliary engines at the same time and conducted a battery of tests during the 12-minute simulation.

“The tests at White Sands have been very helpful to better understand and operate our service module propulsion system,” said Jim Withrow, project manager for the test article. “This firing was one of a series of tests performed to date and in the coming months to simulate contingency modes and other stressful flight conditions.”

NASA building on success

NASA has made good progress on the Orion Spacecraft with this week’s test coming just a month after the craft’s crew capsule successfully completed a launch-abort test.

“This was our most demanding test for the pressurization system, including our propellant tanks, valves and other components,”Josh Freeh, deputy manager of the Orion Service Module at NASA’s Glenn Research Center said in a statement issued to the press.

“Inserting Orion into lunar orbit and returning the crew on a trajectory back home to Earth requires extreme precision in both plotting the course and firing the engines to execute that plan … With each testing campaign we conduct like this one, we’re getting closer to accomplishing our missions to the Moon and beyond,” Mark Kirasich, program manager for Orion at NASA’s Johnson Space Center added.

Crew safety and mission integrity are a big priority for NASA who want to ensure the expensive mission is a success while also ensuring the safety of the astronauts.

“Well, we’re looking at really anything that can threaten their lives,” Jason Hutt, Orion Crew Systems Integrations Lead said during the In Case of Emergency podcast.

“So we’re looking at fires — see, you know, we had the Apollo 1 Fire early on in our history, and that’s something that we use — we’ve studied that event to make sure that we don’t repeat something like that. We’ve looked at a leak in the spacecraft, we know there’s been history with the collision with the Mir Program that caused the depress on that, we look at that type of situation, and then there are other medical emergencies and things like that that we need to prepare for, while astronauts are typically the healthiest people on to planet, we still need to prepare for things that are unexpected in those events.”

Tiny Alien Statue On Mars Tells Us What They Looked Like! UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Aug 2019

Location of discovery: Mars Sol 1296

Source photo:

This alien statue is 100% evidence that intelligent aliens once lived and thrived on Mars. I can easily make out the feet, legs, upper legs and thinner waist, shoulders, neck and extraordinary detailed head with extended cranium. 

 

This is a fantastic discovery by Youtube Art Alien who finds some really incredible alien artefacts on Mars. This find is one that allows us to see what the aliens that lived here once looked like, how tall they were and how they had a larger cranium. Undeniable evidence that is proof that NASA true purpose is to hide the truth from the public.

Space Station Found At Orion Constellation! Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Aug 2019
Location of discovery: Orion Constellation

I have been using this map program a few years now and have kept loads of things I have found in a file, this object being one of them. This giant blue crystal-like space station is out there near the Orion Constellation near the back foot. In the video I thought it was the head are, my bad. 

Clearly aliens can build a space station any way they want and this one seems to have a very artistic appearance to it. If your species is so advanced that their technology is millions of years ahead of our own, then they wont need planets any longer. They literally can chose to create their own planet size space stations and move from place to place in the universe. I would love to meet this species. It looks like a very creative species. 

If you can help me out by liking my video and subscribing, I sure would appreciate it. Thanks,

Astronomers Spotted a Car-Size Asteroid Just Hours Before Impact

Strange Meteorite Discovered In Siberia Contains An 'Unnatural' Crystal

Despite the level of understanding and knowledge the world has about so many things, everyone is still getting excited about new discoveries and this one is no exception. A rare meteorite, which was found in Siberia, contains a crystal, or at least what appears to be a crystal. The mineral itself is quite rare as well and is also a mystery. While crystal is the term used to describe it, no one's sure what it actually is but here's what they know so far:

The Discovery

A fair few years ago now, scientists discovered a small piece of a mineral that was created shortly after the solar system, some four and half billion years ago. The mineral was brought to Earth by the Khatyrka meteorite, which landed in Eastern Siberia. Obviously, a 4 billion-year-old mineral would be incredibly interesting to almost anyone, but not so much in this case. It was still quite intriguing but not for its sheer age, as many would expect, but for its atomic structure instead.

The structure that this mineral possesses is one that has never before been found in nature, although it has been created in laboratory environments. It was referred to as a quasicrystal because from the exterior it resembles a crystal, but on the inside, it's a whole other kettle of fish.

Crystal or No Crystal?

Many people are probably wondering - what constitutes a crystal? A mineral needs to have set properties, specifically with the atomic structure, to be considered a crystal. Namely, it needs lattices. A crystals atoms are arranged in lattice structures, are very predictable, and will just keep repeating themselves. However, while this new mineral may look like a crystal on the outside, it isn't a crystal on the inside. The quasicrystal did have lattices, however, they were ordered and not consistent and identical. Therefore, it can't be a crystal, can it?

The atoms were arranged in a variety of different configurations, which, based on human understanding of science and chemical composition, was simply not possible in nature. Yet here it is. Despite quasicrystals being created in labs since the 1960s, many scientists still doubt the fact that they can exist in nature. It is with this in mind that the teams studying the crystal have concluded that it was formed off the planet and traveled here. Even so, if it was formed under astrophysical conditions over 4 billion years ago, it's still proof that this phase of matter can remain stable over huge periods of time, perhaps even indefinitely.

The discovery of these quasicrystals really puts into perspective how much we think we know as an intelligent species, but also reminds us that we don't know nearly as much as we think we do. The universe is a huge place with diversity around every corner and there's still so much more to find out. Researching these quasicrystals would be a good place to start but there's still so much more still to discover.

Earth's lucky escape 565 million years ago: Study finds our planet's magnetic field was 'on the verge of collapse'

• Life on Earth would have faced severe challenges if the field had collapsed
• Solar wind would have stripped the planet of its atmosphere and bombarded the surface with harmful radiation
• Study could also improve the search for alien life, giving astronomers a new glimpse into how planets that can sustain life form

Earth narrowly avoided a catastrophic collapse of the magnetic field that protects our planet 565 million years ago, it has been revealed.

Researchers say that it is had collapsed, life on Earth would have faced severe challenges as the solar wind would have stripped the planet of its atmosphere and bombarded the surface with harmful radiation. 

Researchers found that, luckily, our planet's core solidified 'right in the nick of time', recharging Earth's magnetic field when it was at its weakest point.

Rochester researchers say earth was saved by the planet's core solidifying, recharging Earth's magnetic field when it was at its weakest point.

The discovery provides a new insight into the formation of Earth's core, and backs the theory the Earth's core is relatively young.

Scientists led by Richard Bono, a palaeomagnetism researcher at the University of Rochester, studied single crystals of plagioclase and clinopyroxene formed 565 million years ago in what is now Canada's eastern Quebec.

Our planet's magnetic field is believed to be generated deep down in the Earth's core.

This data allowed them to reconstruct this timeline of Earth's inner core 'nucleation,' or solidification for the paper published online this week in Nature Geoscience.

They found unprecedentedly low geomagnetic field intensities, revealing there was a high frequency of magnetic reversals at that time, suggesting that the geodynamo was on the point of collapsing.

'An enduring mystery about Earth has been the age of its solid inner core,' the researchers wrote. 

Estimates of when the inner core solidified vary widely, ranging between 2.5 billion and 500 million years ago. 

In an accompanying News & Views article, Peter Driscoll writes that 'the nucleation of the inner core may have occurred right in the nick of time to recharge the geodynamo and save Earth's magnetic shield.'

Driscoll said scientists had previously interpreted the weak magnetic field 565 million years ago as being the result of 'rapid tectonic motion, hyper-frequent polarity reversals, and even an equatorial dipole.

'A young inner core is consistent with thermal history models of the Earth9–12 that predict a large transfer of heat from the core to the mantle due, indirectly, to upward revisions to the thermal conductivity of the core,' he wrote. 

The new study could also improve the search for alien life, giving astronomers a new glimpse into how planets that can sustain life form. 

Earth is made up of several different layers, each with unique properties.

At the deepest level is the inner core which is believed to be solid. This produces Earth's magnetic field and protects us from cosmic radiation. 

The next layer is Earth's liquid core which is a fluid layer about 2,200 km (1,400 miles) thick and composed of mostly iron and nickel.

The mantle is the largest region of subterranean Earth and makes up around 84 percent of the planet's volume. 

It sits between the crust and the outer core and is broken down into two sections - upper and lower. 

The asthenosphere is a part of the upper mantle that sits below the lithosphere and is believed to be involved in plate tectonic movement. 

Earth is made up of several different layers, each with unique properties. These are: lithosphere, asthenosphere, mantle and core (pictured)

The lithosphere is the region of the planet that is known as the crust and some pats of the uppermost mantle. it features everything we think of as the ground.

It is made up predominantly of silica and  is broken up into the tectonic plates. 

The Lithosphere-Asthenosphere boundary (LAB) is defined by a difference in response to stress.

The plates and the lithosphere often remain rigid but the weaker and more viscous asthenosphere can move and is know to move. 

This movement causes plates to move into, underneath and below others and  the LAB is the fundamental cause behind tsunamis and earthquakes as well as mountain range formation.

Earth's Last Magnetic-Pole Flip Took Much Longer Than We Thought

Earth's north and south magnetic poles flip-flop over long timescales. New research into volcanic rocks may explain how it happens.

In the new study, the researchers relied on flow sequences of lava that erupted close to or during the last reversal, to measure its duration. Using this method, they estimated that the reversal lasted 22,000 years — much longer than the previous estimates of 1,000 to 10,000 years. 

"We found that the last reversal was more complex, and initiated within the Earth's outer core earlier, than previously thought," lead study author Bradley Singer, a professor of geoscience at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, told Space.com. 

While conducting studies on a volcano in Chile in 1993, Singer stumbled upon one of the lava-flow sequences that recorded part of the reversal process. While trying to date the lava, Singer noticed odd, transitional magnetic-field directions in the lava-flow sequences.

"Such records are indeed extremely rare, and I am one of very few people who date them," Singer said.

Since then, he's made it his career-long goal to better explain the timing of magnetic-field reversals. 

The reversals take place when iron molecules in Earth's spinning outer core start going in the opposite direction as other iron molecules around them. As their numbers grow, these molecules offset the magnetic field in Earth's core. (If this were to happen today, it would render compasses useless as the needle would swing from pointing towards the north pole to pointing to the south.)

During this process, Earth's magnetic field, which protects the planet from hot sun particles and solar radiation, becomes weaker. 

"This kind of duration would mean the shielding of the Earth from solar radiationwould be very complex and, on average, less effective over a longer time period," John Tarduno, a professor of geophysics at the University of Rochester who was not involved in the study, told Space.com. "The actual effects of that are still debatable, and they're not as tragic or as extreme as someone might suggest, but there still can be important effects."

Some of these effects, Singer suggested, could include genetic mutations or additional stress on certain animal or plant species, or possible extinctions, due to increased exposure to harmful ultraviolet light from the sun. An increase in particles from the sun entering Earth's atmosphere could also cause disruption to satellites and other communication systems, like radio and GPS, he added.

Recent reports of the magnetic field jolting from the Canadian Arctic toward Siberia have sparked debate over whether the next magnetic-field reversal is imminent and what kind of impact that would have on life on Earth.

However, Singer dismissed these claims. "There is little evidence that this current decrease in field strength, or the rapid shift in position of the north pole, reflect behavior that portends a polarity reversal is imminent during the next 2,000 years," he said.

Using the data gathered from lava flows, geologists can learn a lot more about magnetic-field reversals. "Even though volcanic records are not complete records, they're still the best kind of records we have of recording a given time and place," Tarduno said. "Higher accuracy in the age dating, and being able to get more detailed records [of the reversals]...will give the community a lot to think about," he added. 

The paper was published on August 7 in Science Advances.

‘Hidden’ ancient galaxies discovery may redefine our understanding of the Universe

 BY ROB LEA 

The discovery of 39 ‘hidden’ ancient galaxies urges scientists to rethink their theories of fundamental aspects of the Universe — including supermassive black holes, star formation rates, and the ever-elusive, dark matter.

In an unprecedented discovery of astronomers, researchers have utilised the combined power of a multitude of observatories across the globe to discover a vast array of 39 previously hidden galaxies.

The finding — described by the researchers from the University of Tokyo as a ‘treasure trove’ — is the first multiple discoveries of this kind. But the finding is significant for more than its size alone.

In addition to containing a wealth of newly discovered ancient galaxies, an abundance of this particular type of galaxy suggests that scientists may have to refine current models of the universe.

This is because our current understanding of the universe and how it formed is built upon observations of galaxies in ultraviolet light. But observations in these wavelengths under-represent the most massive galaxies — those with high dust content and crucially, the most ancient.

This means that a discovery of such galaxies — such as the one just made — must force us to reconsider the rates of star formation in the early universe. The study explains that the population of stars discovered may mean that star formation rates were actually ten times greater in early epochs than previous estimates held.

There are also particular ramifications for our understanding of both supermassive black holes and their distribution, and for the concept of dark matter — the elusive substance which makes up 80% of the matter in the universe.

Despite the wealth of astronomical data that has become available to scientists since the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope, researchers at the Institute of Astronomy in Toyko were aware there were things that Hubble simply couldn’t show us. It was these things — fundamental pieces of the cosmic puzzle — that they wanted to investigate.

They achieved this by unifying different observatories, using them to look more deeply in the Universe than Hubble alone could do. This is what led them to this huge collection of galaxies.

Researcher Tao Wang describes the uniqueness and magnitude of the team’s discovery: “This is the first time that such a large population of massive galaxies was confirmed during the first two billion years of the 13.7-billion-year life of the universe.

“These were previously invisible to us.”

Wang continues: “This finding contravenes current models for that period of cosmic evolution and will help to add some details, which have been missing until now.”

A different view of the universe

Wang explains that if we could see these galaxies and the light they shed, our view from the Milky way would be significantly different: “For one thing, the night sky would appear far more majestic. The greater density of stars means there would be many more stars close by appearing larger and brighter.

“But conversely, the large amount of dust means farther-away stars would be far less visible, so the background to these bright close stars might be a vast dark void.”

The galaxies have been difficult to see from Earth due to how faint they are. Were we able to see these stars, their density would make the night sky majestic, Wang says.

The light from these galaxies also has to battle extinction — the absorption of light) by intervening interstellar dust clouds. The light from the galaxies also has to travel great distances meaning the wavelength is redshifted by the expansion of the universe making it even less visible.

Professor Kotaro Kohno explains that this phenomenon is how the galaxies escaped Hubble’s gaze: “The light from these galaxies is very faint with long wavelengths invisible to our eyes and undetectable by Hubble.

“So we turned to the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which is ideal for viewing these kinds of things. I have a long history with that facility and so knew it would deliver good results.”

This redshift due to cosmic expansion does have its advantages, however. It allows astronomers to estimate not just the distances to the galaxies in question, but it also allows them to calculate just how long ago the light was emitted.

The hidden implications of these hidden galaxies

The team’s finding is so controversial and poses such a radical rethink that they found their fellow astronomers were initially reluctant to believe they had found what they claimed.

Wang explains: “It was tough to convince our peers these galaxies were as old as we suspected them to be. Our initial suspicions about their existence came from the Spitzer Space Telescope’s infrared data.

“But ALMA has sharp eyes and revealed details at submillimeter wavelengths, the best wavelength to peer through dust present in the early universe. Even so, it took further data from the imaginatively named Very Large Telescope in Chile to really prove we were seeing ancient massive galaxies where none had been seen before.”

The discovery has the potential to reshape our ideas of the supermassive black holes that scientists currently believe nestle at the centre of most galaxies.

Kohno elaborates: “The more massive a galaxy, the more massive the supermassive black hole at its heart.

“So the study of these galaxies and their evolution will tell us more about the evolution of supermassive black holes, too.”

Kohno also explains that some ideas regarding dark matter may have to be revised, too: “Massive galaxies are also intimately connected with the distribution of invisible dark matter. This plays a role in shaping the structure and distribution of galaxies. Theoretical researchers will need to update their theories now.”

In addition to the potential shake up the team believes that their findings may already present, they expect more surprises to come.

Wang concludes: These gargantuan galaxies are invisible in optical wavelengths so it’s extremely hard to do spectroscopy, a way to investigate stellar populations and chemical composition of galaxies. ALMA is not good at this and we need something more.

“I’m eager for upcoming observatories like the space-based James Webb Space Telescope to show us what these primordial beasts are really made of.”

Aliens Might Never Appreciate How Cool Voyager’s Golden Record Is

If they find it, they may just be confused.

BY CARA GIAIMO

IN THE LATE SUMMER OF 1977, NASA launched a pair of interstellar probes, Voyager 1 and 2. Like most spacecrafts, these two were built to gather information about unknown realms. More unusually, they also had something to give in return: Each held a copy of what’s known as the Golden Record, a set of images and sounds carefully chosen to give anyone who might find them a taste of Earthly life.

More than 40 years after its launch, the Golden Record hasn’t found any extraterrestrial listeners—that we know of. It does, however, enjoy serious hometown fandom. Here on Earth, it’s been the subject of poetry books, an as-yet unproduced screenplay, and at least one SXSW panel. Last year, after a successful Kickstarter campaign, it even got a vinyl re-release. In a way, the record has already found its intended audience. As consultant B.M. Oliver wrote in a history of the project, “its real function … is to appeal to and expand the human spirit.”

But at least two diehard fans think there’s something to be gained from considering alternative audiences a bit more rigorously. “Every time you try to communicate, you have an intention you are after,” says Sheri Wells-Jensen, a linguistics professor at Bowling Green University, and a board member of Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence (METI), an organization dedicated to reaching out to aliens. “But you have no idea how you’re going to be received.”

Lately, Wells-Jensen, along with fiction writer Rebecca Orchard, have been examining the Golden Record with new eyes and ears. The result has been a confusing cacophony. “There are so many ways it could be misunderstood,” says Orchard, who presented on the topic at METI’s “Language in the Cosmos” conference this May. Like hapless teens making a mixtape, we’ve etched our soul onto this record and flung it at beings we don’t understand in the slightest. If they actually found it, what would they even think?

Getting to this scenario—in which someone Out There actually intercepts, and seriously tries to decode, the Golden Record—requires working through whorl after whorl of improbabilities. First of all, as its creators knew full well, “there’s an infinitesimally small chance that the Golden Record will be picked up,” says Wells-Jensen. “[The Voyager probes] are tip-toeing around out there in the interstellar void. They’re itty-bitty, and it’s dark … the odds are low.”

But suppose someone does tow the record out of nothingness, and bring it to some sort of extraterrestrial DJ station. In that case, “there are two things that could happen,” Wells-Jensen says. The first option is that the aliens already know what to do—that they’ve got a whole stack of interstellar missives, and a set of criteria for understanding them. She launches into an imitation: “They’re like, ‘Oh, it’s another artifact, from another planet that’s just creeping into a technological phase of civilization! A baby race. Isn’t it cute?’”

The second possibility, she continues, “is that instead, they look at it and go, ‘What the heck is that?’” It’s this particular what-if, she and Orchard agree, that is the most fun to think about.

The Golden Record is stuffed to the gills with information. It has 116 images, a mix of songs in different musical styles, and greetings recorded in 55 languages. There’s an audio collage, “The Sounds of Earth,” that starts with a sonic interpretation of planetary motion and ends with the zap of a pulsar, with stops in between for clanging rocks, barking dogs, and chugging tractors. There is also an hour’s worth of brain-and-heart data, transformed into sound. This came courtesy of the record’s creative director, Ann Druyan, who later wrote that she was thinking about “the history of ideas,” “the predicament our civilization finds itself in,” and “what it [is] like to fall in love”—specifically with project lead Carl Sagan, who she later married.

To an Earthly listener, this is all pretty understandable. Crickets and chimpanzees? We’ve heard those guys. “El Cascabel” followed by “Johnny B. Goode”? Let’s rock. Crushing on Carl Sagan? Hey, many of us get that, too. But begin to abstract yourself away, and the record looks and sounds increasingly curious. “It’s almost dizzying to think about all the different ways that these moments could be misinterpreted,” Orchard says.

Take, for example, that series of multilingual greetings. The messages say everything from “Hi, how are you?” to “We greet you, O great ones,” in languages that range from Akkadian to Zulu. Linda Salzman Sagan, who coordinated the recordings, described the overall effect as “an aural Gestalt, in which each culture is a contributing voice in the choir.” The structure of the recording—each snippet said by a different voice, one after another—might help to get this across, she wrote.

As Wells-Jensen points out, though, there are plenty of other interpretations available. “We can tell that those voices changing mean a different individual is speaking,” she says. “But that’s not necessarily clear [to an alien].” Is the whole recording one person, speaking in different ways? After all, many of the albums made on Earth are meant to showcase all the different things one person’s voice can do.

Or maybe it’s meant to be some kind of time-lapse—akin to Tony Schwartz’s “Nancy Grows Up,” in which the documentarian distilled recordings from 13 years of his niece’s life into a few minutes of sound. Another section of “Sounds of Earth” compilation does strive to be somewhat chronological: it moves from “timeless” sounds, like rainstorms and footsteps, through more recently developed ones, such as Morse code and rocket ships. If the aliens managed to figure this out, why wouldn’t they assume that “Greetings to the Universe in 55 Different Languages” was instead “Earthling Grows Up”?

Even if they do grok that it’s multiple people, Wells-Jensen adds, “Why are they talking to each other? Are they having an argument? Are they playing a game, like we play telephone? Is it a religious ritual?” When you start to think in this way, 55 disjointed greetings all in a row doesn’t seem like an obvious call at all.

Then there are all of the things that could be considered clues, but aren’t. Orchard is particularly fascinated by the record’s 116 images, a selection of which can be seen here. “If you look at the photos back to back, parts of them form a narrative,” she says. For example, a fertilized ovum is followed by a fetus, and then a baby being born. Other juxtapositions, though, are not narrative at all. “There’s a picture of a toad in a hand, followed by a picture of a dead, upside-down alligator.” We humans know that these are two different creatures. But aliens, in their attempts to understand, might draw other conclusions. “Does the toad grow into that alligator?”

It’s also easy to imagine the aliens playing the “Sounds of Earth” while flipping through the images, lining the two up slideshow-style. (It’s a worthwhile exercise.) Some convergences are lucky: a photo of the Red Sea, for example, lines up with the sound of dripping water. But with others, further confusion emerges. The photo of an eagle, for example, goes with the sound of a chittering monkey, or perhaps even a clucking chicken (it’s hard to say for sure). Later, “you get the sound of a chainsaw with a little daffodil,” says Wells-Jensen. “So that’s one way in which the thing could be interpreted wrong.”

Both Wells-Jensen and Orchard emphasize that they’re not trying to pull a gotcha on the record’s creators, who were well aware of its limitations. In Murmurs of Earth, Sagan, Ann Druyan, Jon Lomberg, and others wrote at length about the many decisions they made during the compilation process. Some were rhetorical: They didn’t include any overtly distressing images, like mushroom clouds or sick people, because what if aliens took them as intimidations? Others were bureaucratic: NASA insisted that they include a roll-call list of various members of the 1977 U.S. Senate.

This kind of thing is a large part of why, just 40 years on, certain aspects of the record look ridiculous to Earthlings, too. “But you have to remember, they had six weeks!” says Wells-Jensen. “They did a great job.”

Besides, start thinking about what you’d do differently, and confusion starts to seem inevitable. Perhaps, rather than including so many messages in so many different languages, you want to say the same thing over and over again, in a Rosetta Stone sort of way. Wells-Jensen says this might not be such a great idea either, as it violates a conversational maxim that, at least on Earth, seems to be fairly common.

“If I tell you something four times, is that me trying to be really careful and really clear, or is that me telling you that you’re stupid?” she explains. “Or does it mean that I’m really boring, because I’ve only got one thing to say?” As for the photo/sound problem, should you make sure all those things line up perfectly? And if so, as Wells-Jensen puts it, “what sound does a flower make anyway?”

It’s enough to make one throw up one’s hands (and then put them down again, for fear of being seen as threatening to aliens). Other attempts at interstellar communication come with their own pros and cons. We beamed some scientific information toward a star cluster way back in 1974. In 2008, we sent a Doritos commercial to a nearby solar system.

METI tried its own strategy in 2017: it sent out a radio wave transmission made up of arithmetic, trigonometry, and geometry, working under the theory that whoever has the technology to receive the message probably understands math. Wells-Jensen considers all of this, collectively, to be a decent strategy. “I don’t know if we can be less confusing,” she says. “But we can, and should, try different things.”

Before and after we’ve tried them, it can’t hurt to think about how they might be received—even if we spin completely around, record-style, and end up mostly learning about ourselves instead. After all, “we’re just babies,” reiterates Wells-Jensen. “We just started going to our own moon.” We’ve still got a lot of work to do.

Mysterious, Ancient Radio Signals Keep Pelting Earth. Astronomers Designed an AI to Hunt Them Down.

Tardigrades Have Landed on the Moon. Here's What Their Survival Could Mean for Humanity.

By William Herkewitz And Daisy Hernandez

SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY/STEVE GSCHMEISSNER/GETTY IMAGES

Tardigrades are one of the most fascinating creatures on Earth—and now, the moon, too. The mysterious microscopic critters have landed on the lunar surface in what sounds like the beginning of a sci-fi thriller. But they're not there as part of a hostile takeover. They're there completely by accident.

Back in April, the moon-bound Israeli spacecraft Beresheet crashed due to a computer error. Scientists loaded the tardigrades onto the Beresheet along with human DNA samples; when the lunar lander crashed, thousands of dehydrated tardigrades might have spilled onto the moon's surface, according to a WIREDreport.

The tardigrades were in "tun" form, a dormant state where they shrivel up into a ball, expel most of the water in their bodies, and lower their metabolism via cryptobiosis until they enter an environment better suited to sustain life. They can exist like this for decades. They're also pretty hardy and can endure the harshest environments, including subzero temperatures—and the recent crash landing.

"Tardigrades can survive pressures that are comparable to those created when asteroids strike Earth, so a small crash like this is nothing to them," Lukasz Kaczmarek, an expert on tardigrades, told The Guardian.

So what does this mean for humanity? That depends on what the research produces. If humans can replicate cryptobiosis in the way tardigrades do, we'd live far longer than the average life expectancy of 78.7 years for Americans.

According to Kaczmarek, when a tardigrade enters the tun state, it doesn't age. It becomes dormant at one month old and can wake up years later and still biologically be the same age.

“It may be that we can use this in the future if we plan missions to different planets, because we will need to be young when we get there," said Kaczmarek.

Until then, here's everything you need to know about these weird, wonderful creatures.

What's so special about tardigrades?

Tardigrades are a class of microscopic animals with eight limbs and a strange, alien-like behavior. William Miller, a leading tardigrade researcher at Baker University, says they are remarkably abundant. Hundreds of species "are found across the seven continents; everywhere from the highest mountain to the lowest sea," he says. "Many species of tardigrades live in water, but on land, you find them almost everywhere there's moss or lichen."

In 2007, scientists discovered that these microscopic critters can survive an extended stay in the cold, irradiated vacuum of outer space. A European team of researchers sent a group of living tardigrades to orbit the earth on the outside of a FOTON-M3 rocket for 10 days. When the water bears returned to Earth, the scientists discovered that 68 percent lived through the ordeal.

Wait, what? How is that possible?

Although (as far as we know) tardigrades are unique in their ability to survive in space, Miller insists that there is no reason to believe they evolved for this reason or—as a misleading VICE documentary has implied—that they are of extraterrestrial origin. Rather, the tardigrade's space-surviving ability is the result of a strange response they've evolved to overcome an earthly life-threatening problem: a water shortage.

Land-dwelling tardigrades can be found in some of the driest places on earth. "I've collected living tardigrades from under a rock in the Sinai desert, in a part of the desert that hadn't had any record of rain for the previous 25 years," Miller says. Yet these are technically aquatic creatures, and require a thin layer of water to do pretty much anything, including eating, having sex, or moving around. Without water, they're about as lively as a beached dolphin.

But land-dwelling tardigrades have evolved a bizarre solution to living through drought: When their environment dries up, so do they. Tardigrades will enter a state called desiccation, in which they shrivel up—losing all but around 3 percent of their body's water and slowing their metabolism down to an astonishing 0.01 percent of its normal speed. In this state, the tardigrade just persists, doing nothing, until it's inundated with water again. When that happens, the creature pops back to life like a re-wetted sponge and continues onward as if nothing had happened.

What's even more astonishing is that tardigrades can survive being in this strange state for more a decade. According to Miller, a few researchers believe some species of tardigrades might even be able to survive desiccation for up to a century. Yet the average lifespan of a (continuously hydrated) tardigrade is rarely longer than a few months.

"It sounds quite strange," says Miller, "that even though these tardigrades only live for a few weeks or months, that lifetime can be stretched over many, many years."

How does being dried out protect them from the vacuum of space?

In its desiccated state, the tardigrade is ridiculously, almost absurdly resilient. Laboratory tests have shown that tardigrades can endure both an utter vacuum and intense pressures more than five times as punishing as those in the deepest ocean. Even temperatures up to 300 degrees Fahrenheit and as low as -458 degrees F (just above absolute zero) won't spell the creature's doom.

But the exact source of its resilience is a mystery, says Emma Perry, a leading tardigrade researcher at Unity College in Maine. "In general, we know very little about how this species functions, especially when we're talking about the molecular level."

There are clues. Scientists have learned that when the tardigrade enters its desiccated state, "it replaces some of its cell contents with a sugar molecule called trehalose," Perry says. Researchers believe this trehalose molecule not only replaces water, but also in some cases can physically constrain the critter's remaining water molecules, keeping them from rapidly expanding when faced with hot and cold temperatures. This is important, because expanding water molecules (like what happens when you get frostbite) can mean instant cellular death for most animals.

What about space radiation?

Space is deadly, and not just because of the vacuum. Outside our protective atmosphere there is killer radiation caused by distant supernovae, our sun, and other sources. Space radiation comes in the form of harmful charged particles that can imbed in the body of animals, ripping apart molecules and damaging DNA faster than it can be repaired.

But here, too, the tardigrade seems oddly prepared for life in space. According to Peter Guida, the head of NASA's space radiation laboratory, one of the biggest radiation concerns for astronauts (and space-bound tardigrades) is a set of molecules called reactive oxygen species. Ionizing radiation enters the body and bores into wayward molecules that contain oxygen. In simple terms, those newly irradiated molecules then troll through the body causing all sorts of harm.

Tardigrades during their desiccated state produce an abnormal amount of anti-oxidants (yes, these actually exist outside the health-food world), which effectively neutralize those roaming, evil reactive oxygen species. Partly because of this talent, tardigrades have been found to withstand higher radiation doses with far greater success than researchers would otherwise believe they should.

The reason that tardigrades would have evolved to survive high radiation doses is a mystery, too. However, Miller points to a leading theory: Perhaps tardigrades evolved to be swept up by the wind and survive in the earth's atmosphere—which would explain not only their hardiness but also that they're found the world over.

However it happened, there's still much, much more to learn about these fascinating creatures.

Alien abduction HORROR: Aliens ‘cause human PARALYSIS while fully conscious’

ALIEN abductees share horrifying similarities of their abduction experience, according to a bizarre documentary.

Millions of people from around the world claim to have been abducted by extraterrestrials.

The typical testimony from abductees describes how they are taken from their beds, homes, cars, and other locations and transported to spaceships manned by small grey aliens with oversized black, slanted eyes.

Memories of the abduction include being unable to move, hearing buzzing sounds, electrical sensations and difficulty breathing due to pressure on the chest.

Astronomers have discovered more than 4,000 exoplanets – planets orbiting other stars – so far, with a lot more waiting for confirmation. Now, NASA has published a cool new video “summary” of the findings, a time-lapse map if you will, of the locations of these distant worlds in our galaxy. The video was produced by SYSTEM Sounds (Matt Russo, Andrew Santaguida), using the NASA Exoplanet Archive. It was posted to YouTube on July 7, 2019, by NASA’s APOD Videos and it ran as an Astronomy Picture of the Day on July 10.

Even though the video is short, just over a minute long, it takes the viewer on a time-lapse, condensed journey from 1991, when no exoplanets were known, to today, with more than 4,003 known exoplanets. More than? Yes. According to the NASA Exoplanet Archive the number is now at 4,031, so the map is already outdated! The map not only shows the planets’ locations, but also color-codes them based on what method they were discovered with, whether by radial velocity, transit, imaging or microlensing. What starts as an empty background becomes a galaxy filled with planets. And those are only the ones we know about so far.

It’s hard to think back to before the early 1990s, when astronomers believed exoplanets existed, but had not found a single one in outer space. Now we know of thousands, and scientists estimate that there are billions in our galaxy alone. When you combine that with the fact that there are at least 100 billion known galaxies, the total numbers of likely exoplanets becomes mind-boggling to contemplate.

The Kepler Space Telescope alone has confirmed 2,345 exoplanets, with another 2,420 awaiting confirmation. The Kepler mission has ended, but there are still tons of data to be analyzed, and many more worlds to be confirmed. Kepler revolutionized our knowledge of exoplanets, revealing a wide variety of worlds. Many are rocky planets like Earth, while others are like mini-Neptunes, and others are gas giants like Jupiter, extremely hot because they’re orbiting so close to their stars. Smaller rocky planets and planets that are gaseous but smaller than Neptune actually appear to be the most common exoplanets, at least from what we know so far, which is encouraging for the search for life elsewhere.

TESS – Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite – is the newest space telescope dedicated to planet-hunting, and already has confirmed an additional 24 planets plus 993 additional candidates so far, as listed on the NASA Exoplanet Archive. One advantage that TESS has is that is observing stars that are closer to us than the ones that Kepler looked at. That means those planets will be easier targets for follow-up observations, including by upcoming space telescopes such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) , which can better analyze those planets’ atmospheres. By studying the atmospheres, scientists can search for evidence of biosignatures, gases in the atmosphere that may be produced by living organisms. On Earth, that would include oxygen and methane, although there are ways those gases can be created without life as well. Certain combinations of such gases, though, would more likely have a biological origin.

Of course, beyond just finding out how many planets might be out there, people mostly want to know how many exoplanets might be habitable, or better yet, actually inhabited by some form of life. The search for biosignatures is one way to try to determine if a given planet has life. At the other end of the spectrum, a highly advanced alien civilization might make its presence known through megastructures such as Dyson spheres or other technosignatures.

We haven’t yet found any unambiguous evidence for alien life on any exoplanets, but we may be getting closer. Extrapolating from what has been discovered so far, rocky worlds like Earth are now thought to be some of the most common in our galaxy. That is an exciting development in itself. This includes some super-Earths, which are larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune. Some of those planets have been found in the habitable zones of their stars, like Earth is, where temperatures could allow liquid water on their surfaces (depending on other variable factors). Other super-Earths are thought to be true water-worlds, completely covered by oceans.

What seems certain is that this map will continue to grow in the years ahead, with thousands more exoplanets expected to be discovered by TESS and other upcoming planet-hunting missions.

Here’s the new map of known exoplanets, or planets orbiting distant suns. It’s all 4,003 known exoplanets discovered as of 2019. This image was an Astronomy Picture of the Day for July 10, 2019.

What’s going on about 90 miles (150 km) below the Earth’s surface?

Image via Good Free Photos.

By Miles Bodmer, University of Oregon and Doug Toomey, University of Oregon

The Pacific Northwest is known for many things – its beer, its music, its mythical large-footed creatures. Most people don’t associate it with earthquakes, but they should. It’s home to the Cascadia megathrust fault that runs 600 miles (966 km) from Northern California up to Vancouver Island in Canada, spanning several major metropolitan areas including Seattle and Portland, Oregon.

This geologic fault has been relatively quiet in recent memory. There haven’t been many widely felt quakes along the Cascadia megathrust, certainly nothing that would rival a catastrophic event like the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake along the active San Andreas in California. That doesn’t mean it will stay quiet, though. Scientists know it has the potential for large earthquakes – as big as magnitude 9.

Geophysicists have known for over a decade that not all portions of the Cascadia megathrust fault behave the same. The northern and southern sections are much more seismically active than the central section – with frequent small earthquakes and ground deformations that residents don’t often notice. But why do these variations exist and what gives rise to them?

Our research tries to answer these questions by constructing images of what’s happening deep within the Earth, more than 90 miles (144 km) below the fault. We’ve identified regions that are rising up beneath these active sections which we think are leading to the observable differences along the Cascadia fault.

Cascadia and the ‘Really Big One’

The Cascadia subduction zone is a region where two tectonic plates are colliding. The Juan de Fuca, a small oceanic plate, is being driven under the North American plate, atop which the continental U.S. sits.

The Juan de Fuca plate meets the North American plate beneath the Cascadia fault.

Subduction systems – where one tectonic plate slides over another – are capable of producing the world’s largest known earthquakes. A prime example is the 2011 Tohoku earthquake that rocked Japan.

Cascadia is seismically very quiet compared to other subduction zones – but it’s not completely inactive. Research indicates the fault ruptured in a magnitude 9.0 event in 1700. That’s roughly 30 times more powerful than the largest predicted San Andreas earthquake. Researchers suggest that we are within the roughly 300- to 500-year window during which another large Cascadia event may occur.

Many smaller undamaging and unfelt events take place in northern and southern Cascadia every year. However, in central Cascadia, underlying most of Oregon, there is very little seismicity. Why would the same fault behave differently in different regions?

Over the last decade, scientists have made several additional observations that highlight variations along the fault.

One has to do with plate locking, which tells us where stress is accumulating along the fault. If the tectonic plates are locked – that is, really stuck together and unable to move past each other – stress builds. Eventually that stress can be released rapidly as an earthquake, with the magnitude depending on how large the patch of fault that ruptures is.

Geologists have recently been able to deploy hundreds of GPS monitors across Cascadia to record the subtle ground deformations that result from the plates’ inability to slide past each other. Just like historic seismicity, plate locking is more common in the northern and southern parts of Cascadia.

Geologists are also now able to observe difficult-to-detect seismic rumblings known as tremor. These events occur over the time span of several minutes up to weeks, taking much longer than a typical earthquake. They don’t cause large ground motions even though they can release significant amounts of energy. Researchers have only discovered these signals in the last 15 years, but permanent seismic stations have helped build a robust catalog of events. Tremor, too, seems to be more concentrated along the northern and southern parts of the fault.

What would cause this situation, with the area beneath Oregon relatively less active by all these measures? To explain we had to look deep, over 100 kilometers (60 miles) below the surface, into the Earth’s mantle.

Imaging the Earth using distant quakes

Physicians use electromagnetic waves to “see” internal structures like bones without needing to open up a human patient to view them directly. Geologists image the Earth in much the same way. Instead of X-rays, we use seismic energy radiating out from distant magnitude 6.0-plus earthquakes to help us “see” features we physically just can’t get to. This energy travels like sound waves through the structures of the Earth. When rock is hotter or partially molten by even a tiny amount, seismic waves slow down. By measuring the arrival times of seismic waves, we create 3-D images showing how fast or slow the seismic waves travel through specific parts of the Earth.

To see these signals, we need records from seismic monitoring stations. More sensors provide better resolution and a clearer image – but gathering more data can be problematic when half the area you’re interested in is underwater. To address this challenge, we were part of a team of scientists that deployed hundreds of seismometers on the ocean floor off the western U.S. over the span of four years, starting in 2011. This experiment, the Cascadia Initiative, was the first ever to cover an entire tectonic plate with instruments at a spacing of roughly 30 miles (50 km).

What we found are two anomalous regions beneath the fault where seismic waves travel slower than expected. These anomalies are large, about 90 miles (150 km) in diameter, and show up beneath the northern and southern sections of the fault. Remember, that’s where researchers have already observed increased activity: the seismicity. Interestingly, the anomalies are not present beneath the central part of the fault, under Oregon, where we see a decrease in activity.

Regions where seismic waves moved more slowly, on average, are redder, while the areas where they moved more quickly are bluer. The slower anomalous areas 90 miles (150 km) beneath the Earth’s surface corresponded to where the colliding plates are more locked and where tremor is more common.

Image via Bodmer et al., 2018, Geophysical Research Letters.

So what exactly are these anomalies?

The tectonic plates float on the Earth’s rocky mantle layer. Where the mantle is slowly rising over millions of years, the rock decompresses. Since it’s at such high temperatures, nearly 1500 degrees Celsius (2700 F) at 100 km (60 mi) depth, it can melt ever so slightly.

These physical changes cause the anomalous regions to be more buoyant – melted hot rock is less dense than solid cooler rock. It’s this buoyancy that we believe is affecting how the fault above behaves. The hot, partially molten region pushes upwards on what’s above, similar to how a helium balloon might rise up against a sheet draped over it. We believe this increases the forces between the two plates, causing them to be more strongly coupled and thus more fully locked.

A general prediction for where, but not when

Our results provide new insights into how this subduction zone, and possibly others, behaves over geologic timeframes of millions of years. Unfortunately our results can’t predict when the next large Cascadia megathrust earthquake will occur. This will require more research and dense active monitoring of the subduction zone, both onshore and offshore, using seismic and GPS-like stations to capture short-term phenomena.

Our work does suggest that a large event is more likely to start in either the northern or southern sections of the fault, where the plates are more fully locked, and gives a possible reason for why that may be the case.

It remains important for the public and policymakers to stay informed about the potential risk involved in cohabiting with a subduction zone fault and to support programs such as Earthquake Early Warning that seek to expand our monitoring capabilities and mitigate loss in the event of a large rupture.

Accidental FOIA Reveals Mind Control Documents; Here’s Further Evidence This Technology Exists

Accidental FOIA Reveals Mind Control Documents; Here’s Further Evidence This Technology Exists by Aaron Kesel – Activist Post

Journalist Curtis Waltman filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the Washington State Fusion Center (which is partnered with Department of Homeland Security) to obtain information about Antifa and white supremacist groups; instead of getting information on how the agency targets the groups, he got way more than the information he was looking for – Curtis was accidentally sent a mysterious file with the label “EM effects on human body.zip.” The file included methods of “remote mind control,” MuckRock reported.

According to MuckRock, the mind control documents came from the Department of Homeland Security-linked agency in the form of a file called “EM effects on human body.zip.” The file reportedly contained various diagrams detailing the horrors of “psycho-electronic weapon effects.”

One document lists the various forms of torment made possible by using “remote mind control” methods, from “forced memory blanking” and “sudden violent itching inside eyelids” to “wild flailing” followed by “rigor mortis” and a remotely induced “forced orgasm.” It was not immediately clear how the documents wound up in the agency’s response to a standard FOIA request, but there was reportedly no indication the “remote mind control” files stemmed from any government program.

According to Popular Mechanics, the documents are not official documents but are rather documents captured by the Fusion Center.

The federal government has absolutely experimented with mind control in a variety of methods, but the documents here do not appear to be official.

Waltman had no idea why these documents were included in his request and isn’t sure why the government is holding them. The WSFC did not respond to requests for more information.

The documents themselves are quite bizarre and, honestly, despite reports dismissing them, it is worth remembering that this is exactly what the CIA was working on for years during MKULTRA. That program was supposed to have been shut down after the Church Hearings and other congressional hearings exposed all of the CIA’s clandestine activities at the time many that violated human rights including experimentation on patients and the American population without their knowledge.

Last year, it was revealed that mainstream science had caught up with the black project world (CIA) and had successfully weakened or strengthened particular memories from the brain or outright deleted inherited memories from mice, Activist Post reported.

There was a series of CIA mind control programs including BLUEBIRD, ARTICHOKE, MKULTRA, MKSEARCH and MKNAOMI during the ’50s to ’90s. The CIA sought to blank-slate test subjects wiping memories through drugs, electric shock, high-pitched sound and other torture techniques.

The Project Bluebird/Artichoke document below was kept hidden and under wraps and distracted from other subprojects in MKULTRA through Operation Dormouse for a reason; just read the documents it’s literally the CIA suggesting to create mind-controlled slaves that can covertly commit murder in the 1950s-’60s.

Although, many suspect that this project involved the South American plant derivative, scopolamine, a dangerous substance known as the “zombie drug.” Documents released only a few weeks ago in the JFK files suggest that the CIA was using electromagnetic weaponry to accomplish this goal. How? Well, it started out with using electrodes on a subject’s brain, and I suspect it evolved into tapping into the brain’s own natural frequency over time as the Army documents details on Voice To Skull technology decades later.

In the mid-1950s, neurophysiologist Carl Wilhelm Sem-Jacobsen built his own EEG lab at Gaustad psychiatric hospital in Norway with copious funding from the Rockefeller, Ford, and other “charitable” foundations.  He soon took on multiple U.S. government contracts from the Air Force, Navy, and NASA for research using electrodes implanted in the brains of psych patients to carry out what many have said was unethical research.

These experiments melded over time and were continued under the auspices of a Project MKUltra branch and evolved to what was known as Project Artichoke.

Our government performed various unethical experiments on thousands of Americans for decades on the record exposed by the Church Committee. But before MKULTRA in 1947 the Navy and OSI conducted the first known post-war mind control program, Project Chatter, which continued the drug experiments of the Nazis.

Project Chatter was a highly classified Navy program to search for a truth drug that would get its victim to speak fast. They tested all types of drugs including barbiturates, amphetamines, and heroin. The studies involved “mind control” experiments by hypnosis and narco-hypnosis.

In 1953, Project Chatter was abandoned by the Navy for other projects like the Navy’s project “Perfect Concussion” which was Subproject 54 under MKULTRA. Scientists focused on testing ultrasound signals to create amnesia. In the documents, the Navy sought to create “Sub-aural frequency blasts” which means “below the ear.” Sub-aural frequency would indicate the potential usage of infrasound i.e. sonar.

Around the same time of Project Chatter, another compartmentalized group was running Project Moonstruck which sought to use electronic implants in brain and teeth for tracking, mind and behavior control, conditioning, programming, covert operations through Electronic Stimulation of the Brain, E.S.B. (Auspiciously the documents for Moonstruck are missing, only mere references can be found on sites archiving our history.)

The Army eventually founded Operations Third Chance and Derby Hat which both used LSD; other project names remain unknown though the existence of these programs is unquestionable.

The goals of MKULTRA were to break down human beings both physically and mentally, and modify and control their behavior as well as test chemicals on people for research purposes. These means included but were not limited to, hypnosis, chemical, biological and radioactive exposure. President Bill Clinton was forced to apologize after parts of these programs were revealed to have been continuing after the Church Committee Hearings and they were caught running experiments on Africans under the Tuskegee experiment.

Dr. Ewen Cameron was partially backed by the CIA during project MKULTRA and used electrodes to zap the memories from his unwitting patients’ brains during the 1950s. This method of torture was called “psychic driving.”

After horrendous electric shocks, drugs were given to the test subjects to put them into days of prolonged delirious sleep. Cameron would then subject them to audio tapes he made in which he repeated certain phrases thousands of times with the hope of producing new personalities within them.

A 2012 lawsuit filed by veterans’ groups, against the CIA and the DOD, refers to Cameron’s methods. The suit also states that two researchers, Dr. Louis West and Dr. Jose Delgado, working together under the early CIA MKULTRA subproject 95, utilized two protocols: brain implants (“stimoceivers”) and RHIC-EDOM (Radio Hypnotic Intracerebral Control-Electronic Dissolution of Memory) to program the minds of victims.

Translation: they sought to bury memories, and implant false memories that never happened.

The CIA ultimately found that stress and sleep deprivation can make people more susceptible to false memories as have other researchers.

Although, the new documents are presumed to not be government documents, there are other documents released in 2006 from the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command entitled, “Bioeffects of Selected Nonlethal Weapons.”

The document is dated in 1998, over 15 years ago. One of the main topics regards the effects of “radio frequency directed energy.” The document discusses the “incapacitating effect” of “microwave hearing,” exactly like the new document describes.

There is no sound propagated through the air like normal  sound. This technology in its crudest form could be used to distract  individuals; if refined, it could also be used to communicate with  hostages or hostage takers directly by Morse code or other message  systems, possibly even by voice communication.

From that document, the technology is able to be tuned into a single person like a radio station.

The phenomenon is tunable in that the characteristic sounds and  intensities of those sounds depend on the characteristics of the RF  energy as delivered. Because the frequency of the sound heard is  dependent on the pulse characteristics of the RF energy, it  seems possible that this technology could be developed to the point  where words could be transmitted to be heard like the spoken word,  except that it could only be heard within a person’s head. In one experiment, communication of the words from one to ten using ‘speech modulated’ microwave energy was successfully demonstrated. Microphones next to the person experiencing the voice could not pick up the sound. Additional development of this would open up a wide range of possibilities.

Further, the paper discusses using this technology to disrupt neural control, which “activates specific forms of behavior such as sexual, aggressive, ingestive activities.”

Besides implanting memories, the military later attempted to create what it deemed Voice To Skull technology.

Voice To Skull is described in the patent as a “hearing system” where “Sound is induced in the head of a person by radiating the head with microwaves in the range of 100 megahertz to  10,000 megahertz that are modulated with a particular waveform.”

Similar psychotronic technology to Voice To Skull that wasn’t directly beaming frequencies into people but rather using radio stations to broadcast a signal outside of the human hearing range was used by the Pentagon, known as Silent Sound Spread Spectrum (SSSS) or S-quad. U.S. Psychological Operations officers tested this technology on Iraqi troops in Kuwait during Operation Desert Storm in 1991.

A news briefing detailed how American troops would take over the Iraqis’ FM stations and broadcast a silent signal underneath the audible programming:

The clandestine station programming consisted of  patriotic and religious music and intentionally vague, confusing and  contradictory military orders and information to the Iraqi soldiers in  the Kuwaiti Theater of Command (KTO). The size and power of enemy forces  was always intentionally exaggerated. Surrender was encouraged. According to statements made by captured and deserting Iraqi  soldiers, however, the most devastating and demoralizing programming was  the first known military use of the new, high tech, type of subliminal  messages referred to as Ultra-High-Frequency ‘Silent Sounds’ or ‘Silent  Subliminals’. (Newsweek, July 30, 1990, Page 61) Although completely silent to the human ear, the negative  voice messages placed on the tapes alongside the audible programming by  psyops psychologists were clearly perceived by the subconscious minds of  the Iraqi soldiers and the silent messages completely demoralized and  instilled a perpetual feeling of fear and hopelessness in their minds.

Then there is the suggestion of using Voice To Skull technology in Afghanistan under the moniker “Voice Of Allah” a few years back under the George Bush administration. That plan also included the broadcasting of a hologram image of what Allah was depicted to have looked like. Further, there was a plan years prior to do the same thing to other Arab nations.

The Gulf War hologram story might be dismissed were it not the case that washingtonpost.com learned that a super secret program was established in 1994 to pursue the very technology for application to PSYOPS.  The “Holographic Projector” is described in a classified Air Force document as a system to “project information power from space … for special operations deception missions. (Source: Washington Post)

Steven Corman, writing at the COMOPS journal, described his own encounter with this technology:

At  a government workshop some time ago I head someone describe a new tool that was described as the “voice of Allah.” This was said to be a device  that would operate at a distance and would deliver a message that only a  single person could hear. The story was that it was tested in a conflict situation in Iraq and pointed at one insurgent in a group, who whipped around looking in all directions, and began a heated  conversation with his compatriots, who did not hear the message. At the time I greeted this story with some skepticism.

Holosonic Research Labs and American Technology Corporation both have versions of directed sound, which can allow a single person to hear a message that others around don’t hear. Holosonic sells a technology called “Audio Spot Light” while ATC sells the Long Range Acoustic Device. DARPA also has its own sonic projector. Intriguingly, Strategy Page reported that troops used LRAD as a modified Voice of God weapon:

It appears  that some of the troops in Iraq are using “spoken” (as opposed to  “screeching”) LRAD to mess with enemy fighters. Islamic terrorists tend  to be superstitious and, of course, very religious. LRAD can put the  “word of God” into their heads. If God, in the form of a voice that only  you can hear, tells you to surrender, or run away, what are you gonna  do?

CNET once reported on the technology, noting that users don’t hear sound through their ears but instead the sound resonates and reverberates inside the person’s head – except in that case it was used for advertising.

The folks who heard the ad for A & E’s TV show “Paranormal State”  emitted from a billboard in New York City’s Greenwich Village must have  thought it was pretty weird. As they walked into the targeted area they  were exposed to highly focused sound, picked up not by their ears, but  by their skulls. The otherwise inaudible sound waves are experienced via  bone conduction–the sound resonates inside the passerby’s head.

The use of mind control technologies was predicted as well in the military publication of Strategic Studies Institute of the U.S. Army War College, published in 1994.

There are also other patents –  (here, here , here , here and here.)

And, finally, the most important patent entitled: “Thought transmission unit sends modulated  electromagnetic wave beams to human receiver to influence thoughts and  actions without electronic receiver.”

This is not science fiction. This is, to put it bluntly, mad science driven by insanity. These are declassified black projects or SAPs (special access programs.) Much of what the clear world or civilian population knows about military technology is severely underestimated despite the public nature of certain technologies like the heat ray and sound cannon. If you dig even deeper there is an old reference on the Army’s website for a technology called “Voice To Skull.” (ARMY SITE YANKED WIRED REPORTED) [ARCHIVED COPY OF ARMY PAGE]

Dr. Joseph C. Sharp completed the first successful test of auditory microwave technology which could bypass the ears and beam sound directly into a person’s head at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research in 1973.

Sharp, strapped inside an isolation chamber, heard “words” beamed at him in a pulsed-microwave audiogram. (An audiogram is a  computerized analog of the spoken voice.) ARPA, now DARPA, researcher Robert O. Becker at the time foresaw “obvious applications in covert operations.”

Becker imagined barrages of “voices” driving an enemy insane, and post-hypnotic suggestion radioed to programmed assassin directing the test subject to kill its target. According  to Naval Captain Paul Tyler in a 1976 essay, “The Electromagnetic  Spectrum in Low-Intensity Conflict,” a “speed-of-light weapons effect”  could be achieved with “the passage of approximately 100 milliamperes  of directed frequency through the myocardium, leading to cardiac standstill and death.”

In 1975, a neuropsychologist Don R. Justesen, the director of  Laboratories of Experimental Neuropsychology at Veterans Administration Hospital in Kansas City, unwittingly leaked National Security Information when he published an article in American Psychologist on the influence of microwaves on living creatures’  behavior. In the article, he quoted the results of  an experiment described to him by his colleague, Joseph C. Sharp, who was working on Pandora, a secret project of the American Navy.

By radiating themselves with these ‘voice modulated’  microwaves, Sharp and Grove were readily able to hear, identify, and  distinguish among the 9 words. The sounds heard were not unlike those  emitted by persons with artificial larynxes (pg. 396).

Dr.  Milton Zaret, a leading microwave scientist was later recruited by  “Pandora,” a CIA project code-named for the study of radio-frequency-directed brain response he stated,

The CIA inquired whether I  thought electromagnetic radiation beamed at the brain from a distance could affect the way a person might act, and if microwaves could be used  to facilitate brainwashing or to break down prisoners under investigation.

It’s long been known that microwaves at certain frequencies can produce an auditory effect that sounds like it’s coming from within someone’s head. Then there’s the question of classified microwave work at Brooks Air Force Base which officials have refused to talk about.

In January 2007, Washington Post wrote on the same subject:

In 2002, the Air Force Research Laboratory patented  precisely such a technology: using microwaves to send words into  someone’s head… Rich Garcia, a spokesman for the research laboratory’s  directed energy directorate, declined to discuss that patent or current  or related research in the field, citing the lab’s policy not to comment  on its microwave work. In response to a Freedom of Information Act  request filed for this article, the Air Force released unclassified  documents surrounding that 2002 patent — records that note that the  patent was based on human experimentation in October 1994 at the Air  Force lab, where scientists were able to transmit phrases into the heads  of human subjects, albeit with marginal intelligibility. Research  appeared to continue at least through 2002. Where this work has gone  since is unclear — the research laboratory, citing classification,  refused to discuss it or release other materials.

Previous research in electromagnetic weapons has shown that low-frequency waves or beams can affect brain cells, alter psychological states and make it possible to transmit commands directly into someone’s thought process making them think it’s their own thoughts. In fact there is even a patent which suggests doing just that.

In the 1940s George Estabrooks, a Harvard University graduate, Rhodes Scholar and chairman of psychology at Colgate University, Canada, acknowledged conducting extensive  hypnosis work on behalf of the CIA, FBI and military intelligence creating Manchurian candidates. He boasted to Science Digest in 1971: “I can hypnotize a man — without his knowledge or  consent — into committing treason against the United States.” Estabrook (Bowhart. Operation Mind Control.)

Eight years later,  it was reported that a “Man Hallucinates, Says Microwaves Are Murdering Him,” in the March 21, 1979, edition of the Los Angeles Herald Examiner and later New Scientist.  That man was electronics engineer Leonard Kille, who founded the Scientific Engineering Institute (SEI) on behalf of the CIA. In  July 1968 at South Vietnam’s Bien Hoa Hospital, SEI teams had implanted electrodes in the skulls of Vietcong prisoners of war in experimental attempts to direct the behavior of brain-wired subjects by remote control.

Kille himself was a test subject of the electrodes implanted in his brain.  In 1971, a hospital attendant found Kille holding a metal wastebasket over his head in an attempt to “stop the microwaves.” A sympathetic doctor at Boston’s VA hospital, where Kille was transferred, ordered him “a large sheet of aluminum foil so he may fashion a protective helmet for himself.” Not informed that Kille had electrodes implanted his head, the VA doctors diagnosed him as a delusional paranoid individual.

In 1965 The New York Times reported obscure EMR experiments secretly funded by the government under the front-page headline: “Mind Control Coming, Scientist Warns.”  University of California psychology professor Dr.  David Krech is quoted warning, “EMR research may carry with it even more  serious implications than the achievements of the atomic physicists.”

Earlier, a 1963 CIA-issued manual on the study of Radio-Hypnotic Intra-Cerebral Control (RHIC) explained:

When a part of your brain  receives a tiny electrical impulse from outside sources, such as vision,  hearing, etc., an emotion is produced—anger at the sight of a gang of  boys beating an old woman, for example. The same emotions of anger can be created by artificial radio signals sent to your brain by a  controller. You could instantly feel the same white-hot anger without  any apparent reason.

Richard Helms oversaw military-oriented EMR research into the transmission of strategic subliminal messages into the aggregate minds of enemy populations. In a 1964 memo to the Warren Commission regarding the possibility that Lee Harvey Oswald had been a mind-controlled assassin, Helms outlined the existence  of “biological radio communication.” “Cybernetics science of communication and control theory that is concerned with  the study of automatic control systems, such as the brain and  mechanical-electrical communications,” Helms admitted, “can be used in  molding of a child’s character, the inculcation of knowledge and  techniques, the amassing of experience, the establishment of social  behavior patterns … all functions which can be summarized as control  of the growth processes of the individual.”

A subsequent CIA directive, summarized in a brochure on “cybernetic  technique” distributed by Mankind Research Unlimited, an EMR study facility in Washington, D.C., detailed the deep state’s development of a “means by which information of modest rate can be fed to humans utilizing  other senses than sight or hearing.” According to the brochure, the CIA’s cybernetic technique, “based on Eastern European research,” involved beaming information via radio frequencies to individual human nerve cells. The purpose, the directive stated, was for “the enhancement of a subject’s mental and physical performance.”

“Recently researchers from the University of Washington showed that they could send one person’s thoughts through a computer to control the hand motion of a person sitting half a mile away. The team first demonstrated this brain-to-brain connection was possible back in August 2013. But now the researchers have put the technology through more rigorous testing and are close to making it usable in real-world scenarios,” Live Science reported.

Neuroscientists in France implanted false memories into the brains of sleeping mice in 2015. Using electrodes to directly stimulate and record the activity of nerve cells, they created artificial associative memories that persisted while the animals snoozed and then influenced their behavior when they finally woke up. MIT scientist also achieved the same result using mice in a similar experiment prior in 2013.

Meanwhile, Japanese researchers have developed a trick to implant false visions into people’s brains, altering the way they experience the world and potentially even the way they think.

In 2016, Dailymail reported that scientists had discovered a disturbing trick to plant false experiences into people’s brains.

As Huffington Post reported in 2014, “Mind control is becoming a reality,” in the clear science world, while black project scientists are far ahead of these advances as this article illustrates. Knowing all this information and seeing all the cited times in history that a shooter has heard voices in their head, one has to question if all the shootings were legitimate or if some of them were deep state CIA operations. (See my article: “I HEAR VOICES: MKUltra? A Worrying Trend Of Mass Shooting Suspects Throughout History Before Committing Horrific Murders.“)

With the inadvertent release of suspicious files talking about mind control it seemed like no better time to put this article out. Will the disclosure of this technology allow for the acceptance that it exists rather than constant ridicule with tinfoil hats? This entire article is cited to its teeth — your move CIA.
