There Is Something Going on in the Bermuda Triangle,They Still Can't Explain It

COAST TO COAST AM – Mike Bara explains the odd tales from the waters in the Atlantic where there have been strange events reported as far back as Columbus and his crew, including seeing submerged lights which in one case paralleled their path. Bruce Gernon is one of the only pilots to survive the “electronic fog” that envelope planes and affect their instrumentation, said Bara, who has concluded that the weird fog is a natural but hyperdimensional phenomenon.

He also shared details of the vanishing of the USS Scorpion submarine in 1968, which was outfitted with an EMP weapon. When the vessel was returning from Haiti, it picked up signals of another submerged craft that was circling it at an incredibly high speed. The Scorpion, Bara continued, was ordered to fire its EMP weapon on the object– it bounced back on the sub, knocking out its electronics and causing it to sink. During recovery, it appeared as though the crew and some of the sub’s technology were missing, as though they’d just been “plucked” out of the ship

Mysterious Orb Caught On Security Cam In 300 Year Old Cellar, Germany, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: July 16, 2020
Location of sighting: Germany

A strange object was caught on cam in a 300 year old cellar. The eyewitness said he had a quick look at his security cam this morning and noticed it caught a unusual object floating past. An orb was seen floating down the stairs of an old cellar of the house. As the object first gets seen at the top of the stairs, it seems very solid and as the object gets closer to the camera we see it turn more transparent. Now remember, the camera is using infrared light to light up the area. Human eyes cannot see in infrared, but the camera allows us to see it. Absolutely amazing catch of an entity orb exploring an old home while the owners sleeps. 100% that orb entities doe exist, and they are intelligent...waiting till the owner was sleeping made if feel more comfortable to explore the old home...and being old, may have intrigued it even more.

Young Cadet Records UFO Over UK During Day, July 2020, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: July 23, 2020

Location of sighting: Horsham, West Sussex County, UK

News source: 

• https://www.wscountytimes.co.uk/news/people/ufo-alert-sparked-after-strange-lights-spotted-skies-over-horsham-2922424

A young man named Alex Bridle reported seeing a bright glowing orange object in the sky over Billingshurst, UK. He said it was flying high up and saw it flash brightly just before it began to speed up and then disappeared. 

 

The objects visit coincides with comet Neowise. The comet was visible between July 15-23 and I reported another UFO sighting near Neowise last week here in Taiwan. This is more proof that Neowise does have UFOs going to and from the comet as it comes close to earth. Other UFO sightings have seen bright bursts of light right before the UFO shot off at tremendous speed...except now...we know where it was going...Neowise!

Scott C. Waring 

News states: 

He was on a walk with a friend at around 10.30pm when he spotted the phenomenon. “It looked way too fast and too bright to be any sort of satellite,” he said. “It was a solid light for 10 seconds and then started getting lighter and brighter regularly. I watched it for about a minute. It came overhead and then disappeared. It was strange. “I’m an air cadet and I know what different types of aircraft look like at night. I know it wasn’t something ‘normal’.

Alien Cube Ship 10X Bigger Than Earth Caught At Our Sun, July 15, 2020, UFO Sighing News.

Date of sighting: July 15, 2020 01:00

Location of sighting: Earths Sun

Source: EIT 171 camera, SOHO images

 

An alien cube is seen in the July 15 SOHO image. In the image above, I added light and focus and we can see that the red material is gathering around its hull. It may be a special particle from the sun. This cube has a non reflective black surface, like a stealth fighter jet. It absorbs, but does not reflect. This cube is many times bigger than earth itself. The cube is in the northern hemisphere of our sun. The cube is often seen coming and going from our sun and its thought that either the cubes created a hollow sun to live within and gather energy from or there is some special particles that we are not yet aware of at our stance of existence ..and these cube ships are gathering those rare particles. Ether way, its their sun no ours...we don't have control over it as much as they will and that alien species probably existed long before earth itself existed. So...what right do we have to claim the sun as our own?

TechRax who is testing new iphones on their quality and endurance got the idea to drop an iphone 11 Pro down a super deep hot cauldron hole known as "Diana's Punchbowl" aka Devil's Cauldron to see what's inside the steaming hot water and whether the iPhone would survive! 

Using a drone, he drops the phone into the water for a second time when unexpectedly the phone catches a pretty eerie sound that sounded like screaming voices, like 'help me - help me' according to TechRax who couldn't believe what he has heard.

Although the creepy sound remains a mystery, we may wonder whether the 'Devil's Cauldron is a portal to a secret underworld, a supernatural world of the dead below the world of the living.

The Devil's Cauldron, is a geothermal feature located on a small fault in Nye County, Nevada. The spring is exposed through a cup-shaped depression about 50 feet (15 m) in diameter at the top of a dome-like hill of travertine about 600 feet (180 m) in diameter.

The screaming voices start at 6.00.

Dark Tower Found On Moon In NASA Official Photo, July 2020, UFO Sighting News.

Below we see a close up of the C Shape emblem over the doorway. 

I tried to make the symbol as close as possible to the original on the tower. 

Date of discovery: July 2020

Location of discovery: Earths Moon

Guys I was going through some NASA index photo of the moon when I came across this dark tower. At first it was the top of the tower that grabbed my attention, but then when I noticed the square doorway at its bottom, I became excited. Then I noticed a ring, but when I enlarged the ring I realized it was not a full circle but 80% of a circle. I tried to make the symbol  of the tower in black and white seen in the above photo. I think its very close. It must have some very important meaning to this species of aliens because that symbol on the tower is huge. It looks to be an ancient temple of some serious significance to it...maybe religious, maybe unifying, or even political. 

 

It looks about 1.5km tall and .5km wide. I discovered it so I will name it. Waring Tower has a nice ring to it. That would make my tower 1.3km taller than the 202 meter Trump tower. #winning

COAST TO COAST AM - Michael Salla has concluded that major war operations presented opportunities for huge amounts of money to be siphoned off for secret projects, such as what went on at the Montauk Air Force Station from 1971-1983. 

Based on whistleblower testimony, he believes they perfected portal or stargate technology there, which allowed people to be instantly transported to far-flung destinations such as Mars. 

Over the years, the Germans continued their covert technological and spacecraft projects out of Antarctica, he cited, and "right now, I firmly believe there are several million people on Mars that are part of this German breakaway colony."

Mysterious UFO Activities in the Himalayas

There were many UFO sightings and encounters that happened in and over the Himalaya mountains in 1968 wherein mysterious and fast-moving lights were reported in several regions in India, including Nepal and Bhutan. Declassified CIA files contain short information on the events and can be viewed on the website of the agency.

On February 19, an apparent supersonic, elongated UFO was seen at 9’oclock in the evening as it traversed the sky over north-eastern Nepal. The object in question went into the Indian province of Sikkim while emitting rays of green and red light.

The CIA would investigate another sighting two days later. This time a bluish UFO was reported in Thimpu, the Bhutan capital. The object was reportedly moving without noise on an East to West course. But the report concludes the mysterious flying object could have been coming from the direction of Tibet.

On March 14, two UFOs emerged above the Chang La pass and moved over the Indian Air Force’s base in Fukche. One white light appeared from nowhere, and simultaneously two blasting sounds were heard. One reddish light was spotted, followed by white smoke. The report stated that the sighting exhibited particularities of bright UFOs spotted over South Ladakh, North East Nepal, Sikkim, and Bhutan as the aerial objects behaved in the same ways. There’s a possibility that these UFOs belonged to the same entity or group of entities.

According to popular UFO theory, a group of entities might be operating a secret facility in the area, particularly around Kongka La, a high mountain pass on the disputed border between India and China. A hidden UFO base might be housing advanced technology that could constitute a tempting acquirement. The disputes on that particular stretch of the Sino-Indian border appear to confirm the presence of such a valuable asset nearby.

The strangest incident revealed in the declassified CIA cases happened on March 25 in the Kaski district of Northwestern Nepal. The report mentions the circumstance that resulted in the recovery of a flying saucer. While poor in detail, the report provides one vital aspect, which reads that the same objects were found in Turepasale, and Talakote, which are two other regions of Nepal. It appears that this wasn’t an isolated case, and the CIA had acknowledged previous crashes.

So, what happened to the UFOs? Where are they now? Were they otherworldly or human-made? Was the recovery of the UFOs without consequences? These are questions of the curious mind, but in this intricate mystery, nothing is certain except that these questions have answers, but we won’t be getting them anytime soon.

Earth’s magnetic field extends from the Earth’s interior out into space, surrounding our planet like an invisible force field , protecting life from harmful solar radiation by deflecting away charged particles from the sun. But this field is continuously changing. Indeed, our planet’s history includes numerous global magnetic reversals, where north and south magnetic poles swap places.

Deep inside the Earth, liquid iron is flowing and generating the Earth’s magnetic field, which protects our atmosphere and satellites against harmful radiation from the sun. This field changes over time, and also behaves differently in different parts of the world. The field can even change polarity completely, with the magnetic north and south poles switching places. This is called a reversal and last happened 780,000 years ago.

Saint Helena, where Earth’s magnetic field behaves strangely.

Between South America and southern Africa, there is an enigmatic magnetic region called the South Atlantic Anomaly, where the field is a lot weaker than we would expect. Weak and unstable fields are thought to precede magnetic reversals, so some have argued this feature may be evidence that we are facing one.

Now our new study, published June 12, 2020, in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has uncovered how long the field in the South Atlantic has been acting up – and sheds light on whether it is something to worry about.

Weak magnetic fields make us more prone to magnetic storms that have the potential to knock out electronic infrastructure, including power grids. The magnetic field of the South Atlantic Anomaly is already so weak that it can adversely affect satellites and their technology when they fly past it. The strange region is thought to be related to a patch of magnetic field that is pointing a different direction to the rest at the top of the planet’s liquid outer core at a depth of 1,795 miles (2,889 km) within the Earth.

The geomagnetic field at Earth’s surface with the South Atlantic Anomaly outlined in black and St. Helena marked with a star. Colors range from weak fields (blue) to strong fields (yellow).

This “reverse flux patch” itself has grown over the last 250 years. But we don’t know whether it is simply a one-off product of the chaotic motions of the outer core fluid or rather the latest in a series of anomalies within this particular region over long time frames.

If it is a non-recurring feature, then its current location is not significant – it could happen anywhere, perhaps randomly. But if this is the case, the question of whether its increasing size and depth could mark the start of a new reversal remains.

If it is the latest in a string of features reoccurring over millions of years, however, then this would make a reversal less likely. But it would require a specific explanation for what was causing the magnetic field to act strangely in this particular place.

Volcanic rocks

To find out, we travelled to Saint Helena – an island in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean. This island, where Napoleon was exiled to and eventually died in 1821, is made of volcanic rocks. These originate from two separate volcanoes and were erupted from between eight million and 11.5 million years ago.

Lead author Yael Engbers is drilling a core on Saint Helena.

Image via Andy Biggin/ The Conversation.

When volcanic rocks cool down, small grains of iron-oxide in them get magnetized and therefore save the direction and strength of the Earth’s magnetic field at that time and place. We collected some of those rocks and brought them back to our lab in Liverpool, where we carried out experiments to find out what the magnetic field was like at the time of eruption.

Our results showed us that the field at Saint Helena had very different directions throughout the time of eruption, showing us that the field in this region was much less stable than in other places. It therefore challenges the idea that the abnormality has only been around for only a few centuries. Instead, the whole region has likely been unstable on a timescale of millions of years. This implies the current situation is not as rare as some scientists had assumed, making it less likely that it represents the start of a reversal.

A window into Earth’s interior

So what could explain the odd magnetic region? The liquid outer core that is generating it moves (by convection) at such high speeds that changes can occur on very short, human timescales. The outer core interacts with a layer called the mantle on top of it, which moves far slower. That means the mantle is unlikely to have changed very much in the last ten million years.

Earth’s inner structure.

Image via Wikipedia.

From seismic waves passing through the Earth, we have some insight into the structure of the mantle. Underneath Africa there is a large feature in the lowermost mantle where the waves move extra slow through the Earth – meaning there’s most likely an unusually warm region of the lowermost mantle. This possibly causes a different interaction with the outer core at that specific location, which could explain the strange behavior of the magnetic field in the South Atlantic.

Another aspect of the inside of the Earth is the inner core, which is a solid ball the size of Pluto beneath the outer core. This solid feature is slowly growing, but not at the same rate everywhere. There is a possibility that it is growing faster on one side, causing a flow inside the outer core that is reaching the outer boundary with the rocky mantle just under the Atlantic hemisphere. This may be causing irregular behavior of the magnetic field on the long timescales we found on Saint Helena.

Although there are still many questions about the exact cause of the irregular behavior in the South Atlantic, this study shows us that it has been around for millions of years and is most likely a result of geophysical interactions in the Earth’s mysterious interior.

Back in January of this year, I wrote an article on how experts were hinting at the possibility that some volcanoes on Venus may have erupted quite recently and some may still even be active to this day (the article can be read here). Now, experts have released new information stating that they have found at least 37 active volcanoes on our sister planet.

According to a new study that was published in the journal Nature Geoscience, researchers from the University of Maryland and the Institute of Geophysics at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, have identified 37 separate characteristics on the planet that were most likely created by very recent and even current volcanic activity.

Laurent Montési, who is a professor of geology at the University of Maryland as well as a co-author of the study, explained this significant discovery, “This is the first time we are able to point to specific structures and say, ‘Look, this is not an ancient volcano but one that is active today — dormant, perhaps, but not dead,’” adding, “This study significantly changes the view of Venus from a mostly inactive planet to one whose interior is still churning and can feed many active volcanoes.”

For a long time, scientists have believed that Venus was still an active planet but they couldn’t prove it. But in this new study, several researchers, led by Anna Gülcher who is a geophysicist at ETH Zürich in Switzerland, conducted computer simulations in order to identify with precise details the formation and evolution of the planet’s coronae which are ring-shaped volcanic structures. They were then able to search for young coronae on Venus by analyzing data that was gathered by NASA’s Magellan probe which orbited the planet from 1990 to 1994.

“The improved degree of realism in these models over previous studies makes it possible to identify several stages in corona evolution and define diagnostic geological features present only at currently active coronae,” Montési explained, adding, “We are able to tell that at least 37 coronae have been very recently active.” Interestingly enough, these coronae were found in a few different clusters spread out across the planet which indicates where the planet has the most activity. (A video map of the clusters can be seen here.)

The coronae discovered on Venus were created by plumes of molten rock that rose up from the mantle and through the planet’s crust. In fact, this process is very similar to how the islands of Hawaii were created here on our planet.

This is such an incredible discovery as Earth was the only planet in our Solar System that contained active volcanoes. Mars did have volcanoes at one point but they all died out many years ago.

For the first time, researchers have found the underwater remains of a land animal that is believed to be an ancient ancestor of elephants. The remains were discovered by the Obruk Cave Research Group at the bottom of the Yamula Dam which is located in the central province of Kayseri, Turkey.

In a statement released by the Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality on their Facebook page, they stated that they believe the 7.5 million-year-old fossil belongs to an ancient ancestor of today’s elephants. “For the first time in the world, a land animal’s fossil was found underwater at the Yamula Dam,” the statement read in part, adding that it’s quite rare to find such a large and mostly undamaged fossil deep beneath the water.

Ali Ethem Keskin, who is a Turkish cave diver, stated, “They (experts) can identify which part belongs to which animal species from the photographs I take… However, these samples may be fragmented and deformed as they remain underwater,” adding, “I need to underline that fossils of sea creatures were previously discovered. However, for the first time in the world, fossils of a land creature thought to belong to the ancestors of elephants have been pictured underwater.”

While diving underwater, Keskin took several pictures of the remains which include a foot bone from the ancient land animal. Several of the pictures can be seen here as well as here.

Yamula Dam

Additional excavations were conducted close to the Yamula Dam two years ago and experts have found numerous fossils belonging to elephants, such as jawbones and skulls. As a matter of fact, in October of 2019, there were reports of anthropologists unearthing 8 million-year-old fossils located not too far from the Yamula Dam (in the Barsama area which is 43.5 miles away). The remains consisted of several animals including a giraffe, rhinoceros, tricorn horse, and a bovidae species.

Other fossils had been previously unearthed closer to the Yamula Dam and they were all from the same time period. The only difference was that the ones found in the Barsama area belonged to smaller animals than the remains that were found close to the Yamula Dam.

Venus dan toch geen slapende planeet? Onderzoekers ontdekken “tientallen vulkanische hotspots” - HLN.be

Bron: Nature Geoscience, Guardian

Venus is vanaf de zon gezien de tweede planeet van ons zonnestelsel en dus, samen met Mars, een naburige planeet van de Aarde. Nog een eigenschap van Venus: er zijn heel wat overeenkomsten met de Aarde. Venus heeft ongeveer dezelfde grootte, massa en samenstelling als onze planeet. Maar van Venus werd wel gedacht dat ze (geologisch) inactief was. Recent onderzoek spreekt die veronderstelling tegen. “Er werden tientallen vulkanische hotspots ontdekt”, schrijft hoofdauteur Anna Gülcher op Twitter.

In totaal werden er wel 133 coronae onderzocht, waarvan er 37 de laatste 2 tot 3 miljoen jaar actief bleken te zijn. “Venus is helemaal niet zo dood als we dachten”, besluit Anna Gülcher.

NASA Asteroids Warning! Five More Large Asteroids Headed This Way, 19 Interstellar Centaurs Found

As NASA reports that five more asteroids are headed our way this week, four of which are over 50 meters in diameter, research from Brazil has identified some 19 space rocks of interstellar origin in our solar system.

Scientists at Sao Paulo State University’s Institute of Geosciences and Exact Sciences have identified asteroids formed in another solar system in the galaxy, and classified them as Centaurs.-

On June 5th, 2020, asteroid 2020 ND passed within the Moon’s distance but no one noticed that it is there. 2 days later on June 7th, astronomers noticed its presence and close flyby. And marked it as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid.

2020 ND has a diameter of 170 meters, this space rock is larger than the London Eye. On July 24th, 6 days from now, with a speed of 13.5 kilometers per second 2020 ND will again make a close flyby. If 2020 ND hits our planet, it will create a crater 1.2 km wide and it can wipe out an entire city.

I found a statue on Mars, and its very similar to hundreds of statues found here on Earth. The statue is similar to that of Easter Island, a small island surrounded by a mysterious people the arrived, constructed statues and disappeared. Well, I thing we know where they came from now...this photo of an Easter Island statue on Mars tells us everything we need to know. The people came from Mars, at least...this tribe of people, they landed on an island, and later decided to travel beyond earth so they left to find a new planet. There is so much evidence of an intelligent civilization living on Mars in this one photo. I literally could find over 100 different objects in this photo. Even the untrained eye could find at least a dozen. Well...I guess we solved the Easter Island mystery. I leave you with the words of JFK.

There is a lot of UFO activity around the sun. A video of the Sun before it set on Friday July 17, 2020 shows several alien spacecraft flying around the Sun.

Although images of UFOs near the sun are quite intriguing, still there are people suggesting they are nothing but pixelation, light reflections or camera glitches.

However if you look at these large objects, especially the two craft depicted in the images above, you clearly can see that they are constructed unidentified flying objects created by and possible piloted by a form of alien intelligence.

Take a look at pictures from some of India’s most iconic UFO sightings

Over the Taj Mahal, along a coastal road, in Ladakh - India has a dramatic and much-debated history of Unidentified Flying Objects.

UFO sightings in India are more sporadic than in the US, but we still have iconic images such as this one taken near the Taj Mahal in Agra. “We don’t know who clicked the Taj Mahal photo, but it’s become famous in Indian UFOlogy circles,” says Hitesh Yadav, 21, a BTech student from Gurgaon, an active UFO investigator and editor of UFO Magazine India.

Over the Taj Mahal, along a coastal road, in Ladakh - India has a dramatic and much-debated history of Unidentified Flying Objects. Here’re some eerie examples:

The unidentified object spotted in Banswara, Rajasthan, in 2008. Eight locals reported seeing an unfamiliar craft in the afternoon sky. They described the UFO as a hat-shaped object with a bright underlight.

In 1964, Billy Meier – one of the world’s most infamous UFO researchers – travelled to India and shot a series of photographs that allegedly show UFOs over Delhi’s skies. Above are three of them.

Technology is now aiding the search for answers. Some ufologists are using satellite imagery, apps and online tools to zero in on odd phenomena, such as these ‘urban crop circles’ in Tirrupur, Tamil Nadu.

So, have you ever seen a UFO?

UFO spotted in India: Gurugram couple claim they caught one on cam

The alleged UFO was spotted in the skies of Gurgaon at around 5.00 am in the morning of July 20, 2020.

By : Nirmal Narayanan

The alleged UFO incident happened at around 05.00 AM on July 20. Ashita Mishra (Name changed as per request) was shocked to see a disc-like object illuminated with lights hovering in the skies. Soon, she informed her husband Gaurav Mishra (Name changed as per request), and they filmed the event using their smartphones.

In an exclusive talk with the International Business Times, India edition, the eyewitness of the incident revealed that the UFO was disc-shaped, and also added that the object was sometimes bigger and sometimes smaller to their eyes.

"The object was becoming bigger in size, and later smaller. Again the object changed shape. To make things clear, the object was triangular, no no, it's not triangular, it was a diamond-shaped disc. It was a full-fledged disc. My husband, after seeing the object suddenly asked me whether it was a space ship. Then, he started recording the incident. Finally, the flying object went under the cloud," said Ashita Mishra.

Ashita also added that she is actually waiting for the clouds to go away to check whether the unknown object is still there in the skies.

Aliens or shooting stars?

Gaurav Mishra who witnessed the incident revealed that the UFO sighting was pretty weird, and added that the object did not have a trajectory, as it moved up and down.

"The thing is that it was a very shiny object, and it was moving very fast. So, you can say that it might be a morning star or nearby planet, but it moved really fast. It covered the entire spectrum which we are looking at, and that kind of movement is very strange. The object was routinely blinking. It was going up and down. It even moved across. Every now and then, it was flashing. We have seen stars twinkling, but in this case, the flashes were completely random," said Mishra.

Before the coronavirus took over the media, the biggest story of late 2019 and early 2020 was the fleets of mysterious drones flying in formation over a wide swatch of Colorado and occasionally crossing the borders into Nebraska and Wyoming (stories here and here and here). While there were numerous eyewitness reports with videos to back them up, the FAA and both local and federal agencies appeared to be at a loss to either find out who owned them or take any kind of drastic measures against them – spawning numerous conspiracy theories linking them to secret government equipment tests or secret government surveillance activities. The pandemic provided a cloud for these unexplained drones to hide in, but out of sight does not mean out of mind at The War Zone, which has dove deep into the files looking for answers and recently came up for air with some unusual fish … and more questions.

“Once the aerial activity stopped, it appears that both federal and state agencies quickly dropped the matter – I have not yet seen any evidence of a continuing federal investigation, although there are many documents still not released.”

Brett Tingley of The War Zone reviewed the hundreds of pages of documents obtained by Douglas D. Johnson, a volunteer UAP researcher, using the Freedom of Information Act. Johnson studied the documents himself first and provided his analysis that the investigation ended in early 2020 and has never resumes. He points out that leads to non-military explanations (pipeline surveyors, gas leak detectors, etc.) led to dead ends. One investigation led to the private drone firm DJI, which is headquartered in (get ready for this, conspiracy theorists) Shenzhen, China – the closest mainland city to Hong Kong, a hotbed of recent turmoil. The War Zone notes that the name “DJI” was redacted from the documents but showed up in an email banner.

“There always remains the real possibility that the drones could have been operated by a hostile actor, whether homegrown or foreign, or some rogue hobbyists with considerable resources.”

The world today has no shortage of hostile actors and, since the pandemic, has not hesitated to put blame on China, so either China is not linked to the Colorado drones in any way or the coverup of its activities is pretty thorough. If we assume the former, there are still plenty more hostile actors capable of controlling the fleets of drones for sinister activities or sinister tests in preparation for them. And yet … the actor has not been identified six months after the drones suddenly stopped flying. Nonetheless, The War Zone feels it accomplished something.

“While these documents provide an unprecedented view into the government’s response and its own apparent confusion surrounding these bizarre events, above all else they offer detailed and consistent descriptions from trained observers indicating that some kind of relatively advanced UAS operation was indeed underway over the central United States for a period of weeks last winter.”

As has been said by many about other unexplained events (think Roswell, Rendlesham, Nimitz), while no concrete explanation has been found, The War Zone is convinced that SOMETHING did happen in Colorado and “the federal government’s own agency tasked with regulating the skies over the United States still has no clue what exactly took place or who was behind it.“

Kudos to Brett Tingley and The War Zone for their in-depth analysis. If anything else comes up on these mysterious Colorado drones, they’ll probably be the first to expose it.

“We have things flying over our military bases and places where we’re conducting military exercises and we don’t know what it is and it isn’t ours. Frankly, if it’s something outside this planet that might actually be better than the fact that we’ve seen some sort of technological leap from the Chinese or Russians or some other adversary that allows them to conduct this sort of activity. That to me is a national security risk and one we should be looking into.”

Senator Marco Rubio

In a follow-up to his demand last month that the Director of National Intelligence produce a report detailing any and all information it and other agencies have on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), Senator Rubio recently sat down with CBS News reporter Jim DeFede, who asked Rubio the simple question “Are we alone?” and got a number of detailed surprise answers. (You can watch the video here.)

“I’ve seen reports on this now for the better part of a decade. Other countries have had similar reports and so, but for our perspective is, there is someone flying in the airspace that no one else is allowed to fly in and we don’t know who it is and it isn’t something we have. We need to know what that is.”

“Other countries have had similar reports …” is a key comment by Rubio – other governments, other militaries and other intelligence communities are just as puzzled as ours are … or at least as much as ours will say publicly. DeFede then asked Rubio for a ‘gut feel’ on the “Are we alone?” question again, and Rubio had this telling comment:

“If we can’t determine what it is, then that’s a fact.”

Unfortunately, the subject changed at that point, but the next question should have been: “How much longer do we attempt to identify them before admitting that they’re not from Earth?” Rubio says he’s been seeing these reports for a decade. Former Senator Harry Reid saw them for longer than that and started the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program in 2007, which spent five official years and at least five more unofficially studying UFOs and UAPs. This is a non-partisan issue – Reid is a Democrat and Rubio a Republican – and it’s a high profile one that doesn’t intimidate a possible Republican presidential candidate like Rubio, just as it didn’t intimidate the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton. It’s an issue that hasn’t just accidentally crept into the mainstream media – CBS, The New York Times (which is rumored to be preparing another big revelation) and others are devoting extensive resources to covering it.

Is this really better than Chinese planes … or are they actually Chinese planes?

As the dots get more numerous and closer together, someone soon will be the first to cross the line and declare:

“Then that’s a fact.”

What will your gut say then, Senator Rubio?

Researchers from the Israel Antiquities Authority and Tel-Hai College have found ancient rock art that was created by a mysterious culture.

Around Golan Heights and the Galilee area in Israel, several rock structures have been discovered that date back thousands of years. However, very little information is known about who created these structures that are called dolmens which are giant megalithic burial tombs with a huge flat stone that is laid on top of the ones that are upright. Thousands of these megalithic structures were constructed in the northern part of Israel and the wider region between 4,000 to 4,500 years ago during the Intermediate Bronze Era.

The rock art that the researchers discovered on four dolmens included geometric shapes, animals, and a human face. (A picture and a video can be seen here.) Professor Gonen Sharon, who is the head of the M.A. Program in Galilee Studies at Tel-Hai and who co-authored the paper, explained this further, “Several years ago, a panel of rock art engravings was discovered on the inner wall of a huge dolmen in a field surrounding Kibbutz Shamir.”

The chance discovery of lines carved into the boulders of an ancient tomb in what is now the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights could offer new insight into an enigmatic culture that thrived thousands of years ago.

(Not the dolmens mentioned in this article.)

In fact, the dolmen that was found near Kibbutz Shamir is the biggest one that has ever been found in the Middle East. Another interesting fact is that 14 tridents (three-pronged spears) were carved into the stone of its ceiling.

Sharon went on to say, “This was the first time rock art was documented in the context of dolmens in the Middle East. Following this discovery, we started a research project to locate and document dolmen art throughout the Land of Israel. We surveyed dozens of dolmens in Upper Galilee and the Golan in an attempt to uncover the world of this mysterious culture that existed more than 4000 years ago, and left behind only dolmens as evidence of their rich culture.”

A dolmen that was found in the Yehudiya Nature Reserve contained pictures of seven horned animals that were drawn on the walls of the burial chamber. Three of the animals were facing towards the east and three were facing west. Two of the animals – most likely a male and a female – were directly facing each other. The seventh horned animal was drawn in the inside part of one of the panels and was facing the other six animals. “It is clear that the way they are positioned meant something to the artist,” stated Uri Berger who is the other co-author of the paper.

Another example of a dolmen (not the ones mentioned in this article.)

The researchers are optimistic that the geometric shapes, animals, and human face drawings that were discovered in Kiryat Shmona will aid them in finding out more information on the mysterious culture that created them.

Berger finished off by stating, “To date, many dolmens were identified in Israel and in neighboring countries, but we knew almost nothing about the civilization of these super-builders beyond the remains of the enormous structures they left behind as evidence of their existence in the region.” “The engravings in the rock open a window, for the first time, to the culture behind the construction of these dolmens.”

If the rumors circulating amongst the UFO research community are real, the New York Times may have to add a second motto: “All the ‘UFO News’ That’s Fit to Print.” After being the leader in breaking the USS Nimitz Tic Tac UFO videos and stories and the existence of the Pentagon’s secret Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, a number of sites are dropping hints that The New York Times has another blockbuster revelation on the verge of being released to the public. What could it be? Get ready to be shocked / disappointed /overwhelmed /underwhelmed /other.

“I don’t know if you saw it, but in the last few hours an indiscretion has begun to circulate in the UFO world: that the New York Times is preparing to document the existence of a government program to recover crashed UFOs.”

UFO Hoje (UFO Today) dropped this news this morning, along with links indicating this rumor has been in play for some time. In early July, UFO Joe interviewed George Knapp about the aforementioned Wilson/Davis documents (about a 2002 meeting between astrophyscist, Eric Davis retired director of the Defense Intelligence Agency Admiral Thomas Wilson about the retrieval of crashed UFOs and re-engineering the technology) and the possibility of The New York Times releasing more information.

“There is no question whatsoever about whether the New York Times is working on a story related to crashes, crash retrievals, and what might have been done with recovered materials. Too many people have been contacted for this to remain a secret.”

He blamed the delay in the paper releasing on the massive amount of fact-checking its stories go through before being released. Anticipating skepticism from the conspiracy theorists on the second point, UFO Joe’s Joe Murgia followed up with an unnamed managing editor of a major media source who detailed the fact-checking apparatus media providers have, with the New York Times at the top with the most. Despite that, skeptical sites such as Bad UFOs point out that these rumors are being spread by relative newcomers (“newbies”) to the UFO research field who may not be doing the detailed research of the more well-known names who paved the way for them.

“And so now UFOlogy’s “Young Guns” are getting all excited about rumors that a major New York Times story is going to be published next week (beginning July 19, 2020) revealing the existence of government UFO crash retrieval teams or something equally dramatic.”

If this sounds a lot like posturing to you, you’re probably right. It’s what is done in lieu of presenting any actual evidence. As the website Vocal Media points out, “UFO” doesn’t mean you-know-what.

“It could be the expected uncovering of the Pandora’s box relating to extraterrestrial existence, although it should be emphasized that Ufo is not absolute and not even in the first instance synonymous with “alien”. Rather, we speak of a phenomenon that is difficult or impossible to catalog.”

True. Then again, we’re talking about The New York Times here, which has two blockbuster UFO revelations already notched in its belt — with well-documented, fact-checked evidence to back them up — and is obviously working to bring much-needed credibility to the UFO research field – something that the strictly UFO-related media has found difficult to accomplish.

For now … we wait.

{ https://mysteriousuniverse.org/ }

Just recently, and while chatting with a fellow UFO researcher on the subject of my latest book, The Rendlesham Forest UFO Conspiracy, a question was put to me that I have hardly ever been asked. And even on the very few occasions that it has been brought up, it has only been in passing. For the most part, I’m asked about the content of the book – which makes sense, of course. The question that I am rarely asked, however, goes something like this: if the Rendlesham Forest incident was a top secret experiment – rather than an alien encounter – what impact would that revelation have on the UFO research community? That’s a good question. So, with that said, I’ll share with you my views on what might happen to Ufology (and not just in the U.K.) if Rendlesham collapses as an E.T. event.

There are three issues that need to be addressed, and which I’ll come to further down this article. First and foremost (in my mind, at least) there’s the matter of government agencies using the UFO subject as a cover for highly-classified military operations. There are a number of cases on record that we should be very suspicious of when it comes to the matter of their validity as genuine UFO incidents. Take, for example, (a) the Antonio Villas Boas “alien abduction” of 1957 (which was almost certainly something akin to an early MK-Ultra-type experiment), (b) the Hickson-Parker alien abduction of October 1973, and (c) the strange story of the Flatwoods Monster of 1952. Check out those three links above. Strong cases can be made for all of those incidents having been the top secret work of governments, not aliens.

If those three cases above were fabricated to look like UFO events (to test new military technologies and for psychological warfare purposes), then why couldn’t that be the case for the incidents that occurred in Rendlesham Forest in December 1980, too? As I see it, it could. Very easily. And, significantly the threads are all there, too. The problem, however, is that so many people in the UFO field don’t want their favorite and famous cases crushed and revealed as something non-extraterrestrial. Too bad. In other words, and to a degree, certain figures in Ufology – and particularly so in the field of Rendlesham case – want aliens. What they don’t want are mind-altering technologies and holograms – which are at the heart of the story my book tells. My book has been selling nicely. The feedback from the readers, however, has mostly been like this: that I was fed a bunch of disinformation by intelligence agents, or that I sold out to the likes of the New World Order. Neither scenario is correct: I simply followed the trail and came to a grounded, non-alien-themed conclusion. Why do so many people want extraterrestrials? Because it makes the story exciting, vindicates their research and – most important of all – helps to bolster their belief-systems. And that’s the big problem. No one in UFO/Rendlesham research should be wanting this or wanting that. Or believing this or believing that. There should only be a search for answers, wherever they take us. Unfortunately, on so many occasions I see people who adhere to those famous words of The X-Files: “I want to believe.” Anyone who yearns for ETs, rather than goes where the evidence takes them, is a fool.

When the Rendlesham Forest saga took place in 1980, I was still at school. And still as a teenager in 1984 when the first book on the case was published (Sky Crash, written by Brenda Butler, Dot Street and Jenny Randles), I was sure that aliens came down on those December 1980 nights. Over time, however, my views changed – and, finally, to a significant degree. And, I’ll tell you something interesting on that issue of minds changing: a lot of people in Ufology don’t like it when you alter your views. I saw that when I wrote my 2017 book, The Roswell UFO Conspiracy – which also places a famous case (in fact, the most famous case) in the “secret experiment” category. Arms-folded, defensive stances, and “I don’t want to know”-type comments were the order of the day. So, if Rendlesham does collapse as a UFO event (and I’m sure it will in the near future – because yet another book on the “secret experiment” situation is on its way), the first issue, within Ufology, will be absolute denial. That will quickly be followed by widespread pissing in pants and by coming out in rashes.

As for the second issue, well, that goes back to what I said about those three, famous cases I referred to above. When the shit hits the fan, and when Rendlesham goes belly-up, Ufology – as a community – will finally have to come to a shocking realization. It will have to accept that government agencies have totally used and exploited the real UFO phenomenon as a means to secretly test sophisticated technology on unwitting people – including using military personnel. And on more than a few occasions, too. I’m pretty certain that as the UFOs go away, and as the “secret experiments” come more and more to the forefront, we’ll see numerous people quit the scene. Why? Because, again, most people in Ufology actually don’t want down-to-earth answers (even if they are controversial); they want aliens. Some of them need aliens. Like some people need a god.

The third issue? Well, I would say that would be the effect on Ufology – and on Rendlesham – as a business. I’m sure that when the 40th anniversary of Rendlesham comes around in December of this year, there will be a great deal of publicity, media coverage, and the reprinting of old books on the incident (with new forewords and new introductions added to make the books appear somehow new and still relevant). And, when December 2020 comes closer and closer, I’m also sure that most of the coverage will be focused on extraterrestrials. Why? It’s all very simple: that’s what people want. If Rendlesham does collapse, I’m positive that everything that goes along with it – TV shows, lectures, conferences, books etc. – will also come to an end. But, that’s not the most important thing. The most important thing is that we’ll have the answer – even if the answer amounts to one of Ufology’s worst nightmares. Namely, zero aliens in Rendlesham Forest. And I hope that Ufology will be able to cope with that. Even accept it. But, should I hold my breath? Fuck, no.

Documentary on alien implants convinces filmmaker topic not so crazy

Posted by: Alejandro Rojas  

Of all of the fringe ideas in the UFO field, the idea that people are being snatched up by aliens and then returned without their knowledge is pretty hard for many to swallow. Added on top of that the claims some of these people have had implants placed inside of them by the aliens, well, for many, that is bat-poop crazy.

When first asked to document a surgery to remove an alleged alien implant, Cobell responded it was “way outside of my scope of knowledge or interest.”

“It seemed too wild for me to put my mind around,” explained Corbell.

However, since he was asked by friends, and has an interest in extraordinary beliefs, Corbell decided to do it. His experience ultimately resulted in his newly released documentary, Patient Seventeen.

One of the main characters, who Corbell grew very fond of, is a podiatrist and alien implant specialist, Dr. Roger Leir.

Incidentally, Leir was also skeptical when he was approached years ago with the request to remove a suspected alien implant. He thought it was ridiculous. But when he removed the object, begrudgingly, he said it was unlike anything he had seen before, and became very interested in the topic. He then removed, or aided in the removal, of dozens of the objects before passing away in 2014.

Corbell says Leir passed away while he was putting his documentary together, but it was not so much Leir that convinced him the alien abduction and implant phenomenon may be real.

“It was the patient that transformed my opinion,” says Corbell.

Corbell describes the man he refers to as patient 17, the namesake for his film, as an “average guy of above average height.”

He is six foot nine.

He is referred to as patient 17 because he wishes to remain anonymous, and because he was Leir’s 17th patient to undergo an “alien implant” removal. Corbell says patient 17 is a very down to earth person.

In fact, Corbell says, “He was, and remains, the biggest skeptic that this object removed from his leg — that is hands down extraordinary — has anything to do with his abduction experiences.”

So what is so extraordinary about the object? Well, for the full story you will have to watch the film, but, according to Corbell, some experts have interpreted the data from test results conducted thus far as being made off-world.

Corbell admits more testing has to be done, but he is convinced this thing is really weird.

A short version of Patient Seventeen was entered into the EBE Film Festival at the International UFO Congress several years ago. Although I knew Leir personally, the film exposed me to aspects of his life I was not familiar with, such as a beautiful scene of Leir playing a gigantic organ. The scene was very intimate and moving.

As for patient 17, the man. He did come across as credible, and certainly does not fit the mold of what many think of as an “alien abductee.” He came across as an independent professional who did not seem interested in seeking attention.

I admit, alien abduction is a weird topic that can be uncomfortable. The awkwardness of the phenomenon is portrayed well in the comedy television show People of Earth on TBS. However, if there was ever a documentary that would convince those interested in hard evidence, this may be the one. Not only that, I have to admit, I am partial to Corbell’s shooting style, which is intimate, beautiful and up close and personal.

As of today, Patient Seventeen is available on iTunes, and will be available on other streaming outlets soon.

USAF Report Documents Roswell Coverup

Posted by: Alejandro Rojas

The story was short-lived. The next day, the front-page headline of the Roswell Daily Record read: “Gen. Ramey Empties Roswell Saucer” with the subheadings: “Ramey Says Excitement Is Not Justified,” and “General Ramey Says Disk Is Weather Balloon.”

On July 8, Marcel was ordered to bring some of the debris to the Fort Worth Army Air Base in Texas and meet with General Roger Ramey. On July 9, Ramey held a press conference where he said there was no “flying saucer” found, and that the RAAF had mistaken a standard weather balloon for something more mysterious.

Press photos were taken with Marcel, Ramey, Colonel Thomas DuBose (Ramey’s Chief of Staff), and the alleged crash debris.

General Roger Ramey (left) with Colonel Thomas Dubois looking at the weather balloon Ramey claimed was mistaken for a flying saucer in Roswell in 1947.

The public quickly forgot the entire affair. It wasn’t until the 1980s that the Roswell UFO crash story began to acquire attention. In the late 1970s, researcher Stanton Friedman heard about the case and was able to find Marcel. Marcel told Friedman that the weather balloon story was to coverup what was really found. He said the material was not a weather balloon.

“You couldn’t bend it. You couldn’t dent it. Even a sledgehammer would bounce off of it,” Marcel stated in an interview in the 1980s on the show In Search Of.

“I knew I had never seen anything like that before, and as of now, I do not know what it was,” Marcel continued, “It was not anything from this earth.”

Marcel said he had taken some of the material home to show his family. His son had kept some of it, but after the cover story was released, Marcel says he had to return all the material he had to the Army. Jesse Marcel Jr. confirmed the strange properties of the material.

Friedman was able to track down other witnesses, civilians and military, who backed Marcel’s story. Friedman began working the case with researcher and author Bill Moore. Moore then published their work in a book titled The Roswell Incident coauthored with Charles Berlitz.

In the 1980s and 1990s, several more books were published, and the Roswell incident grew in popularity. In 1989, an alleged witness came forward to claim alien bodies were also recovered.

The mythology of the Roswell UFO crash had received so much attention that in 1993, congressman Steven Schiff, called for an investigation into the incident. The investigation results were released in 1995 by the U.S. Air Force (USAF) as The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert.

“Concerning the initial announcement, ‘RAAF Captures Flying Disc,’ research failed to locate any documented evidence as to why that statement was made,” wrote USAF investigators.

However, they also discovered it was not a weather balloon, as Ramey stated.

“It appears that there was some type of umbrella cover story to protect our work with MOGUL,” Professor Charles Moore told USAF investigators.

According to the report, while researching the Roswell incident, investigators ran across balloon testing conducted at the same time as the Roswell incident out of Alamogordo Air Field (now Holloman Air Force Base), over 100 miles west of Roswell. New York University (NYU) ran the project, and further investigation revealed the NYU testing was part of a Top Secret program called Project MOGUL.

The investigators were able to track down Moore, who was the NYU project engineer. When shown witness descriptions of the debris, Moore told investigators that he believed they had found one of their Project MOGUL test balloons. In particular, Moore’s team had not recovered a balloon they had launched on July 4, 1947.

“When we heard the [Flying Saucer] news back in New York, we joked that they probably found one of our balloons,” recalled Moore.

As for why Ramey had called it a weather balloon, the report states: “the Air Force did not find documented evidence that Gen. Ramey was directed to espouse a weather balloon in his press conference, he may have done so because he was either aware of Project MOGUL and was trying to deflect interest from it, or he really perceived the material to be a weather balloon based on the identification from his weather officer, Irving Newton.”

As to why debris from a Top Secret project would be left out in a field to be discovered by a rancher, the report explains that the materials were not classified, only the use was. The project’s purpose was to float listening devices with balloons to detect nuclear tests by the Russians.

In 1991, DuBose, the third man in the photographs with the debris, sent UFO researchers an affidavit claiming he knew the material in the photos was not what was found in the desert.

“The material shown in the photographs taken in Gen. Ramey’s office was a weather balloon,” wrote DuBose. “The weather balloon explanation for the material was a cover story to divert the attention of the press.”

DuBose claims the real debris was sent to a General McMullen in Washington D.C., who said he intended to forward the material to Air Material Command at Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio.

DuBose claimed, “The entire operation was conducted under the strictest secrecy.”

However, DuBose did not say he knew what the debris material consisted of or knew anything about the recovery of an alien spacecraft.

Although it appears Ramey was covering up the true nature of what the RAAF found in the desert, the description of the materials used for the Project MOGUL balloons was not high tech or out of the ordinary. The balloons were standard weather balloons. Other elements included balsa wood, foil, tape, and string.

Cavitt, the CIC officer who accompanied Marcel to the debris site, claimed what he saw looked like regular weather balloon debris.

The report described the tape on the balloons as “fabricated by toy or novelty companies using purplish-pink tape with flower and heart symbols on it.”

Marcel and his son described having a piece of the debris that looked like a small I-beam with strange symbols. However, they recall that although the beam was as light as balsa wood, it was made of metal. They did remember markings on the I-beam but said they were not hearts and flowers.

The USAF investigation led them to conclude: “The Air Force research did not locate or develop any information that the ‘Roswell Incident’ was a UFO event. All available materials, although they do not address Roswell per se, indicate that the most likely source of the wreckage recovered from the Brazel Ranch was from one of the Project MOGUL balloon trains. Although that project was Top Secret at the time, there was also no specific indication found to indicate an official preplanned cover story was in place to explain an event such as that which ultimately happened.”

They claimed that Marcel and the RAAF base commander overacted when they claimed they had caught a “flying disc.”

As for alien bodies, they said that was not possible because the wreckage was from Project MOGUL balloons, which did not have passengers, and that even UFO researchers could not agree on the details related to the alleged alien bodies.

If the USAF seemed to solve the case in 1995, why is Roswell still a thing? Well, many do not believe Marcel would mistake a weather balloon for a crashed alien spacecraft. Further, they argue that the base commander would not have written a press release based on finding foil, balsa wood, and other materials that were not mysterious.

Proponents to the Roswell UFO crash also point to the numerous witnesses who claim to have been threatened by the military to keep their mouths shut, or who had allegedly helped clean up the debris field. Even Apollo astronaut Edgar Mitchell, who was from Roswell, has said he heard from credible locals that the Roswell UFO crash was real, and he did not believe the USAF conclusion.

Another problem is that although there are numerous alleged witnesses, the USAF investigators only talked to Cavitt. There are references to Marcel’s comments in publications, but USAF investigators did not contact him or other alleged witnesses.

The Roswell incident continues to create heated debate among UFO researchers. Over 70 years later, the mythos of the Roswell UFO crash lives on, despite whatever happened in the lonely desert in 1947.

Decades of Government UFO Gaslighting Exposed

Posted by: Alejandro Rojas

The United States Air Force claims it stopped investigating UFOs in 1969. It is a point they love to repeat when inquiries have been made for the last few decades, even when researchers present government documents to demonstrate otherwise. Often in the past couple of decades, instead of answering my inquiries about UFO documents, I am sent the USAF UFO Fact sheet. However, given recent revelations, the USAF fact sheet was wrong, and, as many have demonstrated, the government has been taking UFOs seriously for a very long time.

According to the USAF UFO Fact Sheet, the USAF program to investigate UFOs, Project Blue Book, was closed because “No UFO reported, investigated and evaluated by the Air Force was ever an indication of threat to our national security.”

In a memo dated October 20, 1969, by Brigadier General Carroll H. Bolender, the reasons for closing Project Blue Book were outlined. In the memo, Bolender noted that “reports of unidentified flying objects which could affect national security are made in accordance with JANAP 146 or Air Force Manual 55-11, and are not part of the Blue Book system.”

His note indicates that the most critical cases were not going to Project Blue Book, which begs the question, “what good is it to investigate UFOs without the best cases?” It also implies there were cases, “which could affect national security.”

JANAP 146 detailed “Communication Instructions for Reporting Vital Intelligence Sightings [aka CIRVIS].” “Unidentified flying objects” were one of the items listed as something to report.

Eventually, the military replaced CIRVIS with Operational Reporting (OPREP). A document distributed by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in 1993 says, “OPREP–3 reports containing information relating to unknown objects near U.S. military installations are considered extremely sensitive, and thus not releasable.”

Sure enough, UFO researchers have found several of these documents. They typically address UFOs incursions over weapons storage areas, including those that house nuclear weapons.

Despite having receipts, UFO researchers are often grouped in with the tin-foil hat crowd. Nick Pope ran the Ministry of Defense (MoD) “UFO desk.” He dealt with these issues from the government side. Pope told the Huffington Post, “We were telling the public we’re not interested, this is all nonsense, but in reality, we were desperately chasing our tails and following this up in great detail."

“To really achieve our policy of downplaying the UFO phenomenon, we would use a combination of ‘spin and dirty tricks,'” claims Pope. “We used terms like UFO buffs and UFO spotters — terms that mean these people are nut jobs. In other words, we were implying that this is just a very somewhat quaint hobby that people have as opposed to a serious research interest.”

As in many things, it seems the U.S. and U.K. had UFO public relations strategy in common.

I remember the first time I got a good case. It was a security officer who had recently returned from the war in Iraq. He was hypersensitive to his environment and spotted an odd object hovering over a mountain near commercial airliners’ path. He says he tried calling the local airport and the police. No one cared. He finally found the number to a local group collecting UFO reports and got to me. When I called the airport and hounded the FAA on the matter, they didn’t care. They referred me to civilian UFO groups, like the one of which I was a part.

I was shocked and very concerned. It appeared the UFO taboo was causing government agencies to lend a blind-eye to potentially dangerous situations that put the public in harm’s way. What my witness reported may have been someone flying a remote-controlled aircraft near commercial airliners. But the FAA could not be bothered once the word “UFO” was invoked.

It was refreshing to hear Senator Marco Rubio recently express a similar concern.

“The bottom line is if there are things flying over your military bases and you don’t know what they are because they are not yours, and they exhibit, potentially, technologies that you don’t have at your own disposal, that to me is a national security risk and one that we should be looking into,” Rubio told CBS Miami.

Rubio is the chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI). In the proposed Intelligence Authorization Act for 2021 (see verbiage below from exploratory committee report: pages 11 and 12), the SSCI is asking that the Director of National Intelligence “in conjunction” with the Secretary of Defense put together a report on “unidentified aerial phenomenon [UAP].” The report is to include information from the “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force.”

Why would he assume they have this sort of information? Well, the reasons made public stem from the revelations of Luis Elizondo, a former intelligence officer who claims to have headed up a project at the Pentagon investigating UAP. His involvement in the program was featured in an article in The New York Times in late 2017. Elizondo claimed that the program continued even after he had left a few months before the article was published.

Although the Department of Defense (DoD) balked at the claims at first, they have admitted that the program existed and still exists. A DoD spokesperson recently told Swedish UFO researcher Roger Glassel it is an “interagency team.”

One agency included in the SSICI UAP report request is the FBI.

Further, just last night, Elizondo told investigative journalist George Knapp on Coast to Coast AM that he recently discovered an earlier program similar to his. A transcript of the conversation can be read on SilvaRecord.com. Elizondo says that he was recently at a meeting having a classified discussion when one of the men present told him he had done Elizondo’s UAP job in the 80s.

“I wasn’t there to ask him questions,” says Elizondo. “I was there for them to ask me questions, but it was very clear to me that AATIP was not the first of its kind ever. There was an organized effort back in the ’80s to do exactly this as well.”

The question is, how will the various agencies the SSCI is asking to provide information respond? Will they gaslight the SSCI, like they have done with the public at large since 1969?

Chris Mellon, former U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and former Staff Director of the SSCI worked with Elizondo to get credible information regarding Elizondo’s UAP research out to the public. U.S. Navy cases, along with firsthand witnesses, led to the Navy admitting they took UAPs seriously and investigated UAP incidents.

Elizondo and Mellon are co-leads in the History Channel series Unidentified. In the first season of the show, we saw the two take some of the Navy witnesses to Washington D.C. to brief lawmakers. Politico covered some of these briefings. All of this lead to the SSCI UAP report requests.

In a recent interview shared on the Rojas Report, Mellon says they have several never before seen military cases that should help frame the forthcoming reports.

“I think they’re going to add to the impetus and the need for Congress to be asking questions,” says Mellon. “And also begin to underscore the kinds of things or provide more reason to believe that a report of that nature should be able to produce some very interesting findings.”

One such case is from NORAD, says Mellon.

“For example, in season two, we have a NORAD watch officer who tells a story of an event he participated in firsthand, in which NORAD was trying to intercept a UFO,” says Mellon. “This [went] all the way up to the four-star level, and they were scrambling every jet they could get in the air.”

This one should make it into the reports. Although in the OPREP article I referenced above, researcher John Greenewald says NORAD had told him “in the spirit of the FOIA, they looked for UFO information but found no records.”

Now the public knows the trials and tribulations of legitimate UFO researchers. There is a lot of wild speculation on the internet regarding UFOs, including thousands claiming to already be in contact with aliens. Hopefully, mainstream science, media, and academia are beginning to realize some of those concerned that the government has been lying to us about what it knows about UFOs have the receipts to prove it.

Asky-watcher spotted mysterious flashes on Planet Venus and it is hard to think they could be explosions. There were so many strange bursts as you will see in this video. During the flashes an unknown object becomes visible for a fraction of a second.

Then the sky-watcher also captured flashing and moving lights in the Moon's Aristarchus Crater and beyond as well as a view of the surface of the moon east of Copernicus Crater showing the real surface of the moon close up and several lunar anomalies.

The footage starts with an unknown object passing the Moon at high speed, the mysterious flashes and unknown object in slow motion start at about the 11.30 mark in the video.

China is in the midst of a stealth war against the USA where it is using an asymmetric military strategy called “Assassin’s Mace” to dominate the strategic high ground of space, and replace the US as the world’s hegemony before 2049. 

By 2030, China’s economy will outgrow the US, and China plans to use its vast economic resources to project its presence deep into space in ways that may lead to escalating military confrontations with the newly created US Space Force.

Eerste Arabische marsmissie gelanceerd -

HLN.be

Bron: AFP/DPA/BELGA

Al-Amal (Hoop) werd om 6.58 uur lokale tijd (23.58 uur zondagavond Belgische tijd) gelanceerd met een H2A202-draagraket die deel uitmaakt van de H-IIA draagraketfamilie. Ze is ontwikkeld en gebouwd door Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

Eerste marsmissie Verenigde Arabische Emiraten opnieuw uitgesteld vanwege slecht weer

Het bedrijf twitterde ongeveer een uur later dat de Marsverkenner al-Amal (Hoop) was losgekomen van het restant van de draagraket.

Het is de bedoeling dat al-Amal in februari in een baan rond Mars komt, als eerste Arabische missie naar een andere planeet.

De sonde is drie meter hoog, 7,9 meter breed en weegt 1,35 ton. Het ruimtetuig moet ongeveer twee jaar lang de atmosfeer van de Rode Planeet in kaart brengen. De verkenner moet onder andere helpen duidelijk te maken waardoor waterstof en zuurstof verdwijnen uit de dunne dampkring van Mars. Het vliegt de ruimte in, waardoor Mars geen kans meer heeft op leven zoals op aarde.

Maar de missie is vooral bedoeld om de Emiraten op de kaart te zetten. Het land ziet wetenschap en technologie als een inkomstenbron voor de toekomst, wanneer de olie opraakt. De VAE hebben sinds 2014 een eigen ruimtevaartorganisatie en vorig jaar ging voor het eerst een man uit het land naar de ruimte. Astronaut Hazza al-Mansoeri verbleef ongeveer een week in het Internationaal Ruimtestation ISS.

We leven in vreemde tijden waarin je niet meer weet wat je nu wel of niet moet geloven.

Zo verschijnt Jezus in een boomstam in Brazilië en heeft iemand een creatieve, maar wel pijnlijke, manier bedacht om onder de mondkapjesplicht uit te komen.


Door de jaren heen krijg je af en toe vreemde verhalen over Mariabeelden die spontaan beginnen te huilen en Jezus en/of Maria die verschijnt aan gelovigen.

Nu zijn er een aantal afbeeldingen opgedoken waarop het lijkt alsof er een afbeelding van Jezus verschijnt op een doorgezaagde boomstam. Het overkwam een aantal Braziliaanse wegwerkers toen ze bezig waren met de aanleg van een weg.


Deze Goddelijke verschijning vond plaats in Itaquira in de staat Mato Grosso do Sul. Volgens Odimar Souza, de directeur die belast was met de klus, werd de afbeelding toevallig gevonden door een aantal van zijn mensen in een boomstam toen ze met de weg bezig waren.


Dit is niet de eerste keer dit jaar dat Jezus in een boom verschijnt in Zuid Amerika. In april verscheen hij in een boom in Colombia en dit terwijl het land midden in een lockdown zat. Voor de bewoners was Jezus echter belangrijker dan het virus en de bevolking negeerde alle quarantaine en anderhalve meter regels massaal om naar de verschijning te kunnen kijken.


Het vreemde met dit soort dingen is dat het bijna altijd voor komt in streng gelovige landen, of weet iemand of wij ook dit soort verschijningen kennen?

Waar wij wel mee te maken hebben is de virushoax pandemie die tot nu toe ons leven aardig heeft weten te verzieken en het eind is nog lang niet in zicht.


Ondertussen doen autoriteiten wereldwijd nog steeds hun uiterste best om coronadoden bij elkaar te scharrelen. Het wordt steeds moeilijker, dus soms zijn er drastische maatregelen gewenst.

Zoals bij dit motorongeluk in Florida vorige week waar een jongeman om het leven kwam. Later bleek dat deze omgekomen motorrijder als doodsoorzaak covid-19 mee kreeg. Maar, in plaats van toegeven dat ze sjoemelen met coronadoden toen ze werden betrapt, komen ze nu met een theorie dat het misschien mogelijk is dat deze omgekomen motorrijder het label "coronadode" meekreeg omdat hij misschien wel een ongeluk had gekregen omdat hij besmet was met het gevaarlijke virus.

Enormous cosmic structure dubbed the 'South Pole Wall' is discovered stretching across 1.4BILLION light-years and containing hundreds of thousands of galaxies

• Researchers created a 3D map of parts of the universe hidden by the Milky Way 
• They found hundreds of thousands of galaxies connected by string of hydrogen
• South Pole Wall is adjacent to an area called the Zone of Galactic Obstruction

By RYAN MORRISON FOR MAILONLINE 

A gigantic stretch of the universe dubbed the 'South Pole Wall' containing hundreds of thousands of galaxies was 'found hiding in plain sight' by astronomers.

The wall had remained undetected until now because large parts of it were hidden from Earth's view by the bright Milky Way galactic centre and dust surrounding it.

The wall is one of the largest cosmic structures ever found, according to Paris-Saclay University researchers, whose worked involved creating 3D maps of the universe.

Within these maps - that focused on an area behind the Milky Way Galaxy known as the Zone of Galactic Obscuration - the team discovered the South Pole Wall. 

This is a wall of galaxies stretching 1.4 billion light years across - roughly eight sextillion miles - and when seen from Earth is below the south pole.

The Milky Way is part of a local galactic cluster that is 520 million light years across, this is about half the size of the South Pole Wall or about three sextillion miles.

Whereas Pluto is just 3.7 billion miles from the Sun or 0.0006 light years.

It was found about half a billion light-years away from the Earth by researchers using a mapping technique that involves measuring the 'peculiar velocity of galaxies'. 

This process takes into account the redshift - that is the speed at which an object is receding from Earth - as well as the motion of galaxies around one another.

Study lead, Daniel Pomarede, said this method let them detect hidden mass that is gravitationally influencing how galaxies move - including dark matter.

Dark matter makes up the bulk of matter in the universe but it emits no light and so can only be detected by the gravitational pull it exerts on nearby objects.

By measuring the way this hidden mass interacts gravitationally they were able to map regions of space otherwise invisible from the Earth. 

Using computer models the team were able to plot the three dimensional distribution of matter in and around the Zone of Galactic Obscuration.

The area of cosmology responsible for mapping the universe, particularly at a multi-galaxy level, is known as 'cartography of the cosmos', said Pomarede.

The new map created of the area behind the Zone of Galactic Obscuration let the team discover the South Pole Wall.

It has been described as a  'mind-boggling bubble' of material in the southernmost point of the sky - as seen behind the Milky Way Galaxy.

It has a sweeping wing extending north on one side towards the constellation of Cetus and a stubby arm int he opposite direction in the Apus constellation.

The area may actually be bigger than it currently appears, according to the French cosmographers, who say there might be much more to it.

The new map created of the area behind the Zone of Galactic Obscuration let the team discover the South Pole Wall. Here is a region of space known as the Chamaeleon cloud complex - the wall is behind this

'We will not be certain of its full extent, nor whether it is unusual, until we map the universe on a significantly grander scale,' the wrote.

Galaxies within this 'wall' are contained in what is known as a cosmic web made of enormous strands of hydrogen gas the they hang from.

These structures, that appear like jewels on a necklace, are surrounded by large empty voids 

Pomarede and colleagues used similar 3D maps generated of the universe to unveil the Laniakea supercluster - the galactic collection the Milky Way is part of.  

This Laniakea supercluster is 520 million light-years wide and contains the mass of a 100 million billion Suns, according to Pomarede.

Cosmography has helped chart the extent of galactic assemblies including the largest - the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall that spans 10 billion light-years.  

Astronomers say uncovering structures like this help to further our understanding of the universe and how it works. 

The findings have been published in the Astrophysical Journal.

Astronomers found a giant “wall” of galaxies hiding in plain sight

Astronomers have found one of the largest structures in the known universe—a “wall” of galaxies that’s at least 1.4 billion light-years long. And given how close it is to us, it’s remarkable that we haven’t seen it before now.

What happened: 

An international team of scientists reported the discovery of the South Pole Wall in a paper published Thursday in the Astrophysical Journal. The structure is basically a curtain that stretches across the southern border of the universe (from the perspective of Earth) and consists of thousands of galaxies, along with huge amounts of gas and dust.

What do you mean by “wall”? 

Galaxies aren’t just strewn randomly throughout the universe. Along huge strands of hydrogen, galaxies collect into larger groupings of massive filaments, separated by giant voids of nearly empty space. Each filament is basically a wall of galaxies, stretching for hundreds of millions of light-years. They’re the biggest structures in the known universe. Other identified structures include the Great Wall, the Sloan Great Wall, the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, and the Bootes Void.

Put together, these walls make up what astronomers call the cosmic web. Piecing together the cosmic web is one of the major pursuits of cosmology—it would not only tell us about the structure of the universe and its interior but could also help us better understand how the universe was formed and how it’s evolved over time.

Why is this one special? 

It’s so close! The South Pole Wall is just half a billion light-years away. In fact, this is part of the reason it was so hard to find until now—it is situated right behind the Milky Way galaxy, in a place called the Zone of Galactic Obscuration, where the galaxy’s brightness effectively kept the wall shrouded in plain sight.

So how was it found? 

Cosmological surveys are often done by measuring objects’ redshift: the speed at which those objects seem to be moving away from Earth thanks to the expansion of the universe. The faster an object is receding, the farther away it is. 

The team behind the South Pole Wall discovery did redshift observations as part of their survey of the sky, but they also added measurements of the velocity of certain galaxies, which illustrates how they gravitationally interact with one another. This technique can alert astronomers to unseen masses—while it’s normally used to investigate dark matter, it can also just highlight masses obscured by bright light. Using this data, the researchers were able to map out the South Pole Wall for the first time.
