Former US AIR FORCE Officer: “The United States Is Aware Of ALIEN BASES On The MOON”

U̳F̳O̳ researchers have always argued that on the Moon and more precisely in the dark side, there could be some e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ bases. The theory suggests that if these a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳s from a distant planet, from another solar system, they could have many bases on the Moon and other planets in our solar system, from which they can make their regular visits to Earth. It is also true that these beings from other worlds could travel by exploiting the StarGates or Wormholes for long distances. They have had this technology for thousands of years already.

In support of this claim, Milton William Cooper, an American writer, broadcaster and former US AIR FORCE intelligence officer, stated under oath in 1989 that the US government was aware of a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ bases on the Moon. the exactness “outposts”) where spaceships are hosted that often visit the Earth.

“Beyond the Moon there are a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ bases” – declared Milton Cooper in a statement. “They have been seen by the Apollo astronauts. During the trip to the Moon these a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ bases were photographed, which were equipped with large machines used for work on the surface of the satellite (perhaps who knows for mining) and large spaceships “. Let’s not forget that the Apollo 15 Mission had photographed a large 3 km long spaceship near Delport Crater. Then subsequently the Apollo 20 mission flew over and photographed the whole area where the a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ ship was parked on the lunar soil.

Cooper has also written about other conspiracy theories, related to the United States government. But the surprise came in 2001, when Cooper was murdered by agents from the Sheriff’s Office (Apache County). There was a police raid on his home in Arizona over a tax evasion report. The official story says Cooper opened fire first. Is there perhaps a better proof? You know how these things go. If you know too much … you get killed. The truth hurts…

Pictures

Many conspiracy theorists claim that there are actual NASA photographs, which clearly show a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ bases on the far, far side of the Moon. “There is a complex of a lunar a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ base on the far side of the moon,” said Scott C. Waring, one of the most respected U̳F̳O̳logists. “This seems to be crazy, but it’s true and we have irrefutable evidence … especially directly from the military.”

In 1994, the US Navy sent a satellite called Clementine which was intended to photograph the moon for two months in a row. During this period, the satellite images sent to the space center were 1.8 million, but only 170,000 of those images were made available to the public. The rest were classified. Classified images of the craters of the moon? ” One of the most fascinating evidence of e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ bases on the far side of the moon comes from remote viewing by Ingo Swann (1933-2013). Swann, who was instrumental in creating the US government\’s remote viewing program in 1970, was one of the most famous RVs in the world, but far more recognized than a few others. For example, in 1973, while performing a distant view of Jupiter, Swann had reported that the giant gas planet had rings. This fact was unknown to astronomers before, until it was confirmed by the Voyager 1 spacecraft in 1979.

But Swann was also known for a remote viewing session on the far side of the moon. Swann asked a man named Axelrod, who worked for the United States government, for some a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ targets.

“Axelrod together with Ingo Swann, agreed on a series of RV sessions in the coordinates of the Moon” – declares the writer Gary S. Bekkum, of the American Chronicle – “Swann visualized the Moon with his remote vision in the predetermined coordinates, under the guidance of Axelrod. In particular, a dozen different places were searched and soon realized that in some points there were a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ bases. Swann had found what appeared to be tracks with wheel tracks as large as those of tractors. In principle Swann was confused by what he was seeing, but he realized that he was witnessing the activity of building intelligent structures on the Moon. At the bottom of a crater he saw a dusty haze, illuminated by rows of artificial green lights mounted on large towers. Swann was surprised during the VR session when he realized that “someone” or “something” has appeared in one of the buildings of one of the bases on the Moon.

Swann knew that an interplanetary VR operation had been endorsed, due to the need to monitor underground structures and e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ activities in an unconventional way. Swann was on a mission to psychically spy on an a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ moon base, because these beings were very rude to the human military. When Ingo Swann “listened” in Remote, he sensed that he had been psychically discovered by two of the ET humanoid inhabitants of the moon base, also asking if he was in danger. ”

Are astronauts and scientists aware of e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ bases on the far side of the moon? As we have seen, there is only some evidence that a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ bases may be on the far side of the moon. Unfortunately, even this theory cannot be proved or proved, but we know that some American military and astronauts are witnesses to the fact that up there, on the Moon, there is someone watching us.

As the UFO / U.S. Government Connections Continue to Grow, Consider Some Alternative Angles

There’s a new article over at Mirador titled “Congress Tells Pentagon and Intelligence Community: UFOs are Serious Business!” The article, from Douglas Dean Johnson, and dated December 7, states: “With the unveiling today of legislative language already agreed on in negotiations between key lawmakers meeting privately, it is likely that Congress will soon send the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community a set of emphatic statutory commands regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (or UFOs, in common parlance).” Well, the UFO subject has always been serious business. For example, in the 1950s, when the “Contactees” were at their height and hanging out with the “Space Brothers” (allegedly, at least…), the FBI opened near-voluminous files on the likes of George Adamski, George Van Tassel, George Hunt Williamson and way more. Many people in Ufology write-off the Contactees, but the fact is that they were of deep concern to the U.S. government for the best part of a decade. Adamski’s FBI file is more than 300-pages-long. So is the Van Tassel file. Of course, none of this really had anything to do with real aliens. Rather, the FBI was concerned by (A) the fact that many of the Contactees had communist leanings; (B) that the Contactees quickly developed huge followings; and (C) that for a while the FBI suspected some of the Contactees were possibly even working for Soviet spies in America.

(Nick Redfern)

“Giant Rock,” California where George Van Tassel hung out. So did the FBI, now and again.

The big irony in all of this is that while many well-known ufologists of that era, such as Leonard Stringfield, Gray Barker and Albert Bender had files opened on them, those latter files were barely in the figure of around thirty-to-forty pages. Stan Friedman’s file is pitiful, in terms of what it tells us (or, rather, what it doesn’t). So, for the FBI, the UFO/Contactee issue was one of deep concern for a long time. UFOs themselves, though, were not of particular interest to the FBI. If at all, even. Rather, it was the politics of the Contactees that had the FBI worried. Moving on, there’s the matter of the CIA’s Robertson Panel of the 1950s. Yet again, we see serious business, but for reasons that weren’t directly tied to the UFO enigma, itself, but that had everything to do with politics. The curious and fantastic UFO events of July 1952, over Washington, D.C., deeply troubled the CIA and the Air Force. And, for very intriguing and alternative reasons that had very little to do with literal alien invasions or visitations. On December 2, 1952 the CIA’s Assistant Director H. Marshall Chadwell noted in a classified report on UFO activity in American airspace: “Sightings of unexplained objects at great altitudes and traveling at high speeds in the vicinity of major U.S. defense installations are of such nature that they are not attributable to natural phenomena or known types of aerial vehicles.”

Believing that something really might be afoot in the skies of America, Chadwell prepared a list of saucer-themed recommendations for the National Security Council: “1. The Director of Central Intelligence shall formulate and carry out a program of intelligence and research activities as required to solve the problem of instant positive identification of unidentified flying objects. 2. Upon call of the Director of Central Intelligence, Government departments and agencies shall provide assistance in this program of intelligence and research to the extent of their capacity provided, however, that the DCI shall avoid duplication of activities presently directed toward the solution of this problem. 3. This effort shall be coordinated with the military services and the Research and Development Board of the Department of Defense, with the Psychological Board and other Governmental agencies as appropriate. 4. The Director of Central Intelligence shall disseminate information concerning the program of intelligence and research activities in this field to the various departments and agencies which have authorized interest therein.”

The overall conclusion of the Robertson Panel was that while UFOs, per se, did not appear to have a bearing on national security or the defense of the United States, the way in which the subject could be used by unfriendly forces to manipulate the public mindset and disrupt the U.S. military infrastructure did have a bearing – and a major one, too – on matters of a security nature. According to the panel’s members: “Although evidence of any direct threat from these sightings was wholly lacking, related dangers might well exist resulting from: A. Misidentification of actual enemy artifacts by defense personnel. B. Overloading of emergency reporting channels with ‘false’ information. C. Subjectivity of public to mass hysteria and greater vulnerability to possible enemy psychological warfare.” There was also a recommendation that a number of the public UFO investigative groups that existed in the United States at the time, such as the Civilian Flying Saucer Investigators (CFSI) and the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO), should be “watched” carefully due to “the apparent irresponsibility and the possible use of such groups for subversive purposes” Now, moving onto later days:

(Nick Redfern)

In 1999, Gerald K. Haines – in his position as the historian of the National Reconnaissance Office – wrote a paper titled “CIA’s Role in the Study of UFOs, 1947-90.” It’s now in the public domain, as a result of FOIA rules. Haines’ paper largely detailed the history of how, and why, the CIA became interested and involved in the phenomenon of UFOs. Although Haines covered a period of more than forty years, I’ll bring your attention to one particular section of his paper, which is focused on the 1970s-1980s. Haines wrote: “During the late 1970s and 1980s, the Agency continued its low-key interest in UFOs and UFO sightings. While most scientists now dismissed flying saucers reports as a quaint part of the 1950s and 1960s, some in the Agency and in the Intelligence Community shifted their interest to studying parapsychology and psychic phenomena associated with UFO sightings. CIA officials also looked at the UFO problem to determine what UFO sightings might tell them about Soviet progress in rockets and missiles and reviewed its counterintelligence aspects.”

The Soviets, then, were masking their secret, chemical- rocket tests by spreading false and fantastic tales of aliens and UFOs. Haines also noted something that is absolutely key to the story this article tells: “Agency analysts from the Life Science Division of OSI and OSWR officially devoted a small amount of their time to issues relating to UFOs. These included counterintelligence concerns that the Soviets and the KGB were using U.S. citizens and UFO groups to obtain information on sensitive U.S. weapons development programs (such as the Stealth aircraft), the vulnerability of the U.S. air-defense network to penetration by foreign missiles mimicking UFOs, and evidence of Soviet advanced technology associated with UFO sightings [italics mine].” So, there is nothing new, at all, about government agencies taking a serious approach to the UFO phenomenon. As we’ve seen in this article, the U.S. government’s UFO interest was not always for the reasons that so many ufologists wish for (namely, that the government has proof of alien life and, one day, will show it to us).

As the issues surrounding the U.S. government and UFOs continue to grow, we should keep in mind there are likely more than a few alternative reasons why  the government, right now, is watching the UFO phenomenon. And, will continue to do so. Will all of that interest be focused on alien life? I say “No.” Politics, Russian spies, counterintelligence, disinformation, and those “subversive purposes” I mentioned above will be the key issues. The UFO subject is not just about UFOs, as strange as that might sound.

Meet NASA's newest class of astronauts

 Miriam Kramer, author of Space

The new astronauts. Photo: NASA

A SpaceX flight surgeon and an elite track cyclist are among the new class of 10 astronaut candidates, NASA announced on Monday.

Why it matters: "These NASA astronauts will plan, train and fly missions to the International Space Station and to the Moon under Artemis, and eventually onto Mars," Vanessa Wyche, the director of NASA's Johnson Space Center, said during an event announcing the new astronaut candidates.

How it works: The 10 candidates will move to Houston, Texas, the home of Johnson Space Center, to begin two years of training starting in January 2022.

• Once that training ends, the 10 rookies will become official astronauts.

What's happening: More than 12,000 applications were submitted for this round of astronaut selection. Here are the lucky 10, with bio information via NASA:

• Nichole Ayers is a major in the U.S. Air Force who is one of a handful of women flying the F-22.
• Marcos Berríos is a major in the U.S. Air Force and a test pilot with 1,300 hours of flight time in about 21 aircraft.
• Christina Birch taught bioengineering at the University of California, Riverside, and is a U.S. National Team track cyclist.
• Deniz Burnham is a lieutenant in the U.S. Navy and works in the energy industry managing drilling projects in Alaska, Canada and Texas, among other places.
• Luke Delaney worked as a pilot at NASA's Langley Research center and has logged more than 3,700 hours of flight time on various aircraft.
• Andre Douglas has worked with NASA during his time at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab, focusing on various space exploration projects for the space agency.
• Jack Hathaway is a commander in the U.S. Navy with 2,500 hours of flight time in about 30 aircraft and 39 combat missions.
• Anil Menon was a SpaceX flight surgeon and is an emergency medicine physician.
• Christopher Williams was a medical physicist in the radiation oncology department at Brigham and Women's Hospital and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, with research focusing on aiding cancer treatments with imaging.
• Jessica Wittner is a lieutenant commander in the U.S. Navy and serves as a test pilot and aviator.

1 fun thing: One of the astronaut hopefuls took the opportunity during the announcement to pitch a different kind of mission to Mars:

• "I think it would be great if NASA could scale up the Ingenuity helicopter that's currently flying on Mars to maybe, you know, fit two people," Berríos said. "I would love to take it for a spin for science."

A $92,000 flying car can reach speeds of 63 miles per hour

Carlos Ferrer-Bonsoms and Nathan Rennolds , Business Insider España

The company's first flying car, Jetson One, is already on sale. Jetson/Youtube

• Jetson One is a $92,000 flying car.

• It can reach a top speed of 63mph and can run for 20 minutes.

• You can purchase the car anywhere in the world.

If you've always dreamed of flying to work, that dream may very soon be a reality. 

If you have $92,000, that is.

Companies are always looking for new market niches, and flying cars are quickly becoming the next big thing. 

There are plans for cars that both fly and work on the road and for flying taxis that will aim to form the basis of future travel.

Jetson is one of these companies.

The company aims "to make the skies available for everyone with our safe personal electric aerial vehicle," according to its website. 

The company's first flying car, Jetson One, is already on sale.

Jetson One has a maximum speed of 63mph thanks to its eight electric motors which generate 102 horsepower. The car can run continually for 20 minutes.

The car can take off vertically and remain airborne, although the company doesn't specify the maximum altitude that the vehicle can reach.

The car can be controlled with a three-axis joystick, and there's a throttle lever to adjust power.

No expense has been spared when it comes to safety. The chassis of the vehicle was inspired by the same technology used in race cars. The company also said that it will be able to fly even if it loses an engine. There is an emergency function that takes control of the aircraft, a LiDAR sensor capable of tracking the terrain to avoid obstacles, and a parachute with a rapid deployment system.

It's already sold out for 2022 but Jetson has more deliveries scheduled for 2023. If you're interested, you can reserve one online with a deposit of $22,000.

That isn't all. It's shipped as a partially assembled kit and so requires you to complete it at home.

Astronaut Quotes About UFO’s And Extraterrestrial Life

The question of whether or not life exists on other planets has fascinated the human race for centuries. Images of flying saucers and “little green men” are pervasive in our pop culture, and accounts of various a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ encounters continue to attract widespread interest as well as skepticism.

Ever since the infamous Roswell incident took place in 1947, public interest in U̳F̳O̳s has skyrocketed, and the government has repeatedly engaged in a culture of secrecy, double-talk and disinformation regarding what they really know about e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ life.

While speculation and rumors continue to abound, one thing is for certain: There are thousands of accounts of people who claim to have seen U̳F̳O̳s and/or a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳s, as well as harrowing accounts of a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ abductions.

Many of these accounts have been offered by people who could gain no financial or social advantage from sharing their stories. Even if what they’re claiming to have seen or experienced didn’t really happen, something is definitely going on, and it undoubtedly merits our attention.

One of the most stubborn obstacles to the progress of an honest conversation regarding U̳F̳O̳s is this issue of the credibility of witnesses. Simply put, many witnesses of e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ activity have been discredited due to a lack of status or influence.

Whenever someone would finally muster up the courage to come forward and share what he/she experienced, they would inevitably be ridiculed and dismissed as a fraud, a publicity hound, or even mentally unstable. Some have even been victims of vicious character assassination attacks by government officials and media personnel.

For this reason, it is all the more significant when persons of influence come forward and reveal that they have also encountered e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ activity. With the development of government space programs and technological progress in the field of aviation, several highly esteemed pilots, astronauts and cosmonauts have gone on record to confirm that they have personally witness unidentified flying objects that are able to maneuver in ways that defy all known laws of physics.

Many of them have had long, successful careers, and would not have any sane reason to want to destroy their own credibility. The following collection of quotes from these individuals will no doubt leave you with this thought-provoking question: If things are not really as these men are describing, what exactly is happening?

Astronaut Neil Armstrong

“We have no proof, But if we extrapolate, based on the best information we have available to us, we have to come to the conclusion that … other life probably exists out there and perhaps in many places.”– Neil Armstrong, Oct 21, 1999.

Astronaut Story Musgrave

“Statistically it’s a certainty there are hugely advanced c̳i̳v̳i̳l̳i̳z̳a̳t̳i̳o̳n̳s̳, intelligences, life forms out there. I believe they’re so advanced they’re even doing interstellar travel. I believe it’s possible they even came here. It’s logical to presume the universe must have other life in it and by virtue of association that we could be visited at some point.” Astronaut Storey Musgrave.

Astronaut Gordon Cooper

“The evidence points to the fact that Roswell was a real incident and that indeed an a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ craft did crash and that material was recovered from that crash site, says Mitchell, who became the sixth man on the moon in the Apollo 14 mission. Mitchell doesn’t say he’s seen a U̳F̳O̳.

But he says he’s met with high-ranking military officers who admitted involvement with a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ technology and hardware. Cooper told a U.N. committee recently, Every day in the U.S.A. , our radar instruments capture objects of form and composition unknown to us. Cooper speculates that public skepticism toward U̳F̳O̳s will shift dramatically.” — Astronaut Gordon Cooper and Ed Mitchell in an interview.

Cosmonaut Victor Afanasyev

“It followed us during half of our orbit. We observed it on the light side, and when we entered the shadow side, it disappeared completely. It was an engineered structure, made from some type of metal, approximately 40 meters long with inner hulls.

The object was narrow here and wider here, and inside there were openings. Some places had projections like small wings. The object stayed very close to us. We photographed it, and our photos showed it to be 23 to 28 meters away.

Many cosmonauts have seen phenomena which are far beyond the experiences of earthmen. For ten years I never spoke on such things. The encounter you asked me about happened on May 5, 1981, at about 6 PM, during the Saljut Mission. At that time we were over the area of South Africa, moving towards the area of the Indian ocean.

I just made some gymnastic exercises, when I saw in front of me, through a porthole, an object which I could not explain. It is impossible to determine distances in Space. A small object can appear large and far away and the other way around. Sometimes a cloud of dust appears like a large object.

Anyway, I saw this object and then something happened I could not explain, something impossible according to the laws of Physics. The object had this shape, elliptical, and flew with us. From a frontal view it looked like it would rotate in flight direction.

It only flew straight, but then a kind of explosion happened, very beautiful to watch, of golden light. This was the first part. Then, one or two seconds later, a second explosion followed somewhere else and two spheres appeared, golden and very beautiful.

After this explosion I just saw white smoke, then a cloud-like sphere. Before we entered the darkness, we flew through the terminator, the twilight-zone between day and night. We flew eastwards, and when we entered the darkness of the Earth shadow, I could not see them any longer. The two spheres never returned.” Cosmonaut Victor Afanasyev commenting on a U̳F̳O̳ sighting that occurred while en route to the Solyut 6 space station in April of 1979.

Astronaut Scott Carpenter

“At no time, when the astronauts were in space were they alone: there was a constant surveillance by U̳F̳O̳s.” Astronaut Scott Carpenter photographed a U̳F̳O̳ while in orbit on May 24, 1962. NASA still has not released the photograph.

Astronaut Eugene Cernan

“I’ve been asked about U̳F̳O̳s and I’ve said publicly I thought they were somebody else, some other civilization.” Commander Eugene Cernan, Commanded the Apollo 17 Mission-The quote is from a 1973 article in the Los Angeles Times.

Astronaut Gordon Cooper

“I believe that these e̳x̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ vehicles and their crews are visiting this planet from other planets which obviously are a little more technically advanced than we are here on Earth.

I feel that we need to have a top level, coordinated program to scientifically collect and analyze data from all over the earth concerning any type of encounter, and to determine how best to interface with these visitors in a friendly fashion…. For many years I have lived with a secret, in a secrecy imposed on all specialists and astronauts.

I can now reveal that every day, in the USA, our radar instruments capture objects of form and composition unknown to us. And there are thousands of witness reports and a quantity of documents to prove this, but nobody wants to make them public.-Colonel L. Gordon Cooper, Mercury and Gemini Astronaut, in an address to the UN in 1985 after announcing that he had seen and chased U̳F̳O̳s over Germany in the 1950s.

Cooper also reported a greenish object, which passed by his capsule going east to west (opposite normal man-made orbits) while in orbit in May of 1963. The object was tracked by ground-based equipment in Perth, Australia. The press was told it could not question Col. Cooper on this aspect of the mission. I know other astronauts share my feelings…. And we know the government is sitting on hard evidence of U̳F̳O̳s.” Col. Gordon Cooper, January 14, 1997.

“The U.S. Government hasn’t maintained secrecy regarding U̳F̳O̳s It’s been leaking out all over the place. But the way it’s been handled is by denial, by denying the truth of the documents that have leaked. By attempting to show them as fraudulent, as bogus of some sort.

There has been a very large disinformation and misinformation effort around this whole area. And one must wonder, how better to hide something out in the open than just to say, ‘It isn’t there. You’re deceiving yourself if you think this is true.’ And yet, there it is right in front of you.

So it’s a disinformation effort that’s concerning here, not the fact that they have kept the secret. They haven’t kept it. It’s been getting out into the public for fifty years or more.” Dr. Edgar Mitchell, from the same interview.

Astronaut Brian O’Leary

“We have contact with a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ cultures.” Astronaut Dr. Brian O’leary

Astronaut James McDivitt

“At one stage we even thought it might be necessary to take evasive action to avoid a collision.; Astronaut James McDivitt commenting on an orbital encounter he and Ed White had with a weird object with arm-like extensions which approached their capsule. Later in the flight they saw two similar objects over the Caribbean.” Astronaut James McDivitt

Astronaut Donald Slayton

“I was testing a P-51 fighter in Minneapolis when I spotted this object. I was at about 10,000 feet on a nice, bright, sunny afternoon. I thought the object was a kite, then I realized that no kite is gonna fly that high. As I got closer it looked like a weather balloon, gray and about three feet in diameter.

But as soon as I got behind the darn thing it didn’t look like a balloon anymore. It looked like a saucer, a disk. About the same time, I realized that it was suddenly going way from me-and there I was, running at about 300 miles per hour.

I tracked it for a little way, and then all of a sudden the xxxx thing just took off. It pulled about a 45-degree climbing turn and accelerated and just flat disappeared.” Donald Slayton, Mercury astronaut, in a 1951 interview.”

A Lightsail Powered By Millions of Lasers Could Reach Alpha Centauri in 20 Years

We're edging closer to interstellar reality.

 By  Chris Young

Breakthrough Initiatives

Interstellar exploration might not be lightyears away, at least not in the figurative sense. That's because international research project Breakthrough Starshot just provided an update on its plans to send a probe to Alpha Centauri, our closest neighboring star system.

Before getting there, it will have to develop and test a new type of spacecraft propulsion system that utilizes a lightsail and a laser beam array to reach the immense speeds required for interstellar travel within our lifetimes, a press statement from the Australian National University (ANU) explains.

A 40 trillion kilometer journey through space

Breakthrough Starshot's ultra-lightweight spacecraft will have to travel four light-years to reach Alpha Centauri. To put it another way, our nearest neighboring star system is a mind-shattering 40,208,000,000,000 (40 trillion) km away from Earth.

As a point of reference, our fastest and most reliable technology today for long-range space travel is the ion thruster, which is powering NASA's DART mission to a nearby asteroid at speeds of 15,000 mph (24,000 km/h). However, according to NASA, with the ion thruster, it would take 18,000 years, or approximately 2,700 human generations, to get to Alpha Centauri.

Impressively, the Breakthrough Starshot team believes its spacecraft, with the help of lasers located on Earth, will be able to reach unprecedented speeds, allowing it to travel the distance to Alpha Centauri in only 20 years. If it does reach its destination, the probe spacecraft will then send back the first-ever images taken from another solar system, allowing a never-before-seen window to distant planets that may or may not resemble Earth. 

In a new research paper, the ANU team outlined their concept, which is designed to make travel to Alpha Centauri a feasible proposition. The team is developing a tiny probe with a lightsail that will be powered by a powerful laser array from Earth. That laser array will concentrate millions of beams on the sail throughout its interstellar journey, allowing it to reach incredible speeds.

"To cover the vast distances between Alpha Centauri and our own solar system, we must think outside the box and forge a new way for interstellar space travel," Dr. Bandutunga, from the Applied Metrology Laboratories at the ANU Centre for Gravitational Astrophysics, explains.

"Once on its way, the sail will fly through the vacuum of space for 20 years before reaching its destination. During its flyby of Alpha Centauri, it will record images and scientific measurements which it will broadcast back to Earth." 

Interstellar spaceflight powered by 100 million lasers

To develop their spacecraft, Breakthrough Starshot and the ANU team rely on the advancement of several key technologies. Lightsails, for example, were only recently proved as a viable form of space travel. In 2019, a Carl Sagan-inspired project called LightSail 2 was able to successfully lift its orbital trajectory around Earth by 3.2 kilometers using a lightsail, or solarsail, propelled by photons from the Sun.

The main challenge, however, will come in the form of the ANU team's state-of-the-art laser array proposal, which will have to precisely train millions of lasers to work in unison. "The Breakthrough Starshot program estimates the total required optical power to be about 100 GW — about 100 times the capacity of the world's largest battery today," Dr. Ward, from the ANU Research School of Physics, says. "To achieve this, we estimate the number of lasers required to be approximately 100 million."

To keep their lasers pointing precisely at the lightsail for the duration of the journey, the ANU team proposes using a 'guide laser' satellite in Earth's orbit, which will act as the conductor, making sure the entire laser array is pointing at the right coordinates. This, alongside an algorithm designed to pre-correct the light from the array, will help to account for the atmosphere distortion the rest of the Earth-bound lasers will suffer. 

According to Dr. Bandutunga, "the next step is to start testing some of the basic building blocks in a controlled laboratory setting. This includes the concepts for combining small arrays to make larger arrays and the atmospheric correction algorithms." The ANU team also emphasizes the fact that it is part of a global collaboration and that it is only working on one facet of the ambitious project.

Breakthrough Starshot is one of the Breakthrough Initiatives, a series of scientific and technological programs founded by Yuri Milner, designed to search for life outside of our solar system. If the lightsail prototype does become a reality, it could achieve interstellar travel in our lifetimes by reaching the planets surrounding our second nearest star, Alpha Centauri, which gives its name to its star system. Success for the project, therefore, would elevate human beings to the lofty category of interstellar species. The question is, how many others, if any, are out there?

History's First UFO Abduction in 1572? The Strange and Mysterious Tale of Hans Buchmann

November 15, 1572.  

The weather in Kriesbuhl, a small picturesque farming village in the foothills of the Swiss Alps is cold, even for that time of year, but clear.

On that day, a Saturday, Hans Buchmann, an impoverished peasant farmer, has a debt to pay.  He owes sixteen florins, roughly the equivalent of $600 in today’s money, to a creditor in the nearby market town of Sempach.  Hans has been borrowing heavily against his small plot of land to make ends meet and provide for his family.

But no matter how much Hans borrows, the money seems to always disappear and his family remains impoverished.

Lucky for him this fall’s crop has been quite lucrative and he’s saved up the money to pay off his creditor.  Now in the crisp early morning sunlight Hans is preparing to walk the four miles to Sempach to pay off his debts.  Unfortunately, for Hans, the road from Kriesbuhl to Sempach is mostly uphill and through wooded terrain, but in November of 1572, though the temperatures have been falling steadily over the last several days, no snow has yet fallen on the foothills of the Swiss Alps.  

It is a journey that should take just under two hours each way, but Hans Buchman won’t return home for nearly three months.

Hans bundles up against the cold, putting on his woolen overcoat hat and mittens before grabbing his walking stick and departing.  Perhaps out of a sense of shame over the debts that he’s incurred, or perhaps because he has other intentions entirely, Hans leaves his house without telling either his wife, or two teenage sons, exactly where he’s going…

Two weeks later, Hans Buchman, dirty and disheveled, and suffering from a splitting headache, awakes to find himself curled up against a stone wall in an alleyway in a strange and unknown city.

His hat, mittens, overcoat and walking stick are nowhere to be seen and he is clothed in nothing more than a ragged shirt and loose fitting pants.  Clothes that seem to have once belonged to someone else.

He has no idea where he is.  He runs out into the street inquiring of everyone who passes by in German, “Where am I?  What city is this?”

But no one responds.  Everyone simply walks by this dirty, unkempt madman, supposing Buchmann to be nothing more than some drunken foreign beggar, the kind that is very commonplace in this cosmopolitan early modern city.

It is St. Andrew’s Day, some two weeks after November 15, 1572 and hundreds of men, women and children are out in the streets, as church bells ring and call the faithful to mass.

Hans sees a man dressed in a soldier’s uniform, not unlike those Hans has seen worn by soldiers in his native Sempach.  This soldier seems to be a man of authority, one of the many uniformed, heavily armed men that appear to dwell in this strange and overcrowded city.

“Sir,” Hans shouts in German as he runs up to the soldier, “my name is Hans Buchmann.  I was traveling to my native city of Sempach but seemed to have lost my way.  What city is this?”

  The soldier responds in perfect German, “This is Milan and you are a long way from Sempach.”

1500's Milan

Hans Buchmann, somehow, has ended up over 150 miles from home.  He had set out, two weeks ago, on a two hour’s journey from his native village of Kriesbuhl, a simple walk of four miles he had undertaken perhaps hundreds of times before, and ended up on the other side of the Alps in Italy, over a five days journey from his native village.

He has no idea how he got there.

The soldier who answered Hans’ desperate question, is as it turned out, Swiss and he is one of the many thousands of foreign mercenaries who regularly come to Milan to prop up that city’s defenses during the ongoing and interminable wars between the independent Italian city-states.

This soldier, along with other Swiss soldiers of fortune, helps Hans return home.  For Hans the journey home in winter, over high snow covered mountain passes is long and arduous.  It takes weeks for Hans Buchmann to reach Kriesbuhl.  By the time he reaches the doorstep of his farmhouse it is already the first week of February 1573.

In the interim, Hans’ two sons had set out along the same overland trail as Hans on the way to Sempach in search of their missing father.  They found Hans’ coat, hat, mittens and walking stick lying by the roadside at the edge of a forest outside of town, but upon reaching Sempach and inquiring of as many locals as they could find as to the possible whereabouts of their father, no one reported having seen him in at least two weeks.

Some residents of Sempach did report that they had seen Hans enter the town on the afternoon of November 15, 1572 and that he had stopped at a local tavern to have a drink, but after that the trail had gone cold.

During the sixteenth century it was common for towns and cities in central Europe to have a local chronicler, who would record events for posterity in a town chronicle, that would be kept in city record offices.  It appears that when Hans Buchmann, did eventually return home, and told his fantastical tale of having ended up, by means unknown over 150 miles away in Milan, Italy that he was questioned by both a chronicler and a magistrate from the nearby German city of Rothenburg.

Original Chronicle from 1573

Hans' tale is so improbable that, suspecting some form of foul play or subterfuge on the part of the debtor, the magistrate demands a full investigation into the matter and requests that Hans Buchmann present himself at the Rothenburg police station at once.

Under intense questioning by the magistrate, as recorded in the Rothenburg city chronicle for the year 1573, Hans Buchmann admitted that he had first set out on his journey to Sempach carrying sixteen florins because he owed the money to a man named Hans Schiirmann the proprietor of the Romerswill Inn in Sempach

Sempach Romerswill Inn

Though the historical record is unclear as to whether or not Hans Buchmann ever explicitly stated what he exactly owed the money for, it would appear that the sixteen florins may have been some sort of drinking debt that he owed, like a bar tab gone out of control, since a 16th century inn was more akin to a modern tavern or dive bar rather than a sort of hotel.

Hans Buchmann said that he stopped at Schiirman’s home but that Schiirman was not there, and that unable to pay his debts at that moment, he then went to another local inn to have a drink.

It is at this point that Hans Buchmann’s story begins to get a little sketchy to say the least.  Buchmann admitted to drinking on the day of his disappearance, but he claimed he couldn’t remember exactly how much though he stated to the magistrate that, “it was just a little.”

He claimed that he left the unnamed tavern a few hours later, just before sunset and decided to set off on his way home figuring that he would pay his debt back to Schiirman on another, later date, when the proprietor of the Romerswill Inn was at home.

Hans Bruchmann told the magistrate and chronicler of Rothenburg that the last thing he could remember while walking along a wooded trail on the outskirts of Sempach was hearing a loud and insistent buzzing sound.  He said that he could recall looking up into the sky and seeing a bright light while being completely enveloped by a buzzing sound like a swarm of bees and lifted up into the night sky towards the light. 

The next thing that Hans said he could remember was waking up in an alleyway in Milan with a pounding headache two weeks later and over one-hundred and fifty miles away.

In her book on European folklore surrounding the holiday season entitled The Old Magic of Christmas (Llewellyn Publications 2013) author, historian and folklorist Linda Raedisch states of Hans Buchmann, “(W)hen he was first set upon, he thought he was under attack by a swarm of bees, but the buzzing then revealed itself into a terrible scraping of bows on fiddle strings.  We don’t know what really happened to Hans...but it is interesting that he should have mentioned how the buzzing of bees preceded his being lifted up and carried above the treetops.” (Raedisch 12)

Buzzing, noise and lights would indicate, perhaps the existence of some sort of craft, or motor, something that would have been completely unknown to a peasant farmer from the Swiss Alps in the year 1572.

It is also interesting to note that the night sky was extremely active with intriguing celestial phenomena at the time of Hans Buchmann’s supposed disappearance.  In fact, only four days prior on November 11, 1572, Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe had become the first person in history to witness a supernova.  Brahe, using crude astronomical instruments, had observed and recorded an enormous explosion in the night sky, what he incorrectly deemed the “birth” of a new star in the constellation Cassiopeia.  In reality, what Brahe had seen, pretty much with his naked eye alone, was the death of a star, an explosion so enormous that it could easily be seen from billions of lightyears away.  The type of celestial event that would have been  readily visible to any extraterrestrial civilization anywhere in our galaxy.

Tycho Brahe's sketch of a Supernova

So, with all this talk of bright lights, buzzing and stars exploding in outer space was Hans Bruchmann the unsuspecting victim of history’s first ever verifiably recorded alien abduction?

Maybe, but maybe not.

In her book historian and folklorist Raedisch readily admits, “We don’t really know what happened to Hans...just before his disappearance he had borrowed some money without asking, so he had plenty of reason to fabricate the tale.” (Raedisch 12)

If his debt, was in fact a drinking debt, or if he never had the money to even pay back the debt in the first place, maybe he just conveniently decided to make himself disappear and then return once he supposed enough time had elapsed to allow him to think up a fanciful cover story and protect him from debtor’s prison.

Perhaps, Hans Buchmann simply went on a two week long drinking binge and wandered into Milan, or maybe, just maybe he ended up so far away from home via otherworldly means.

Hans Buchmann may have been history’s first documented victim of alien abduction, or he may simply have been a man filled with shame, who attempted to hide the truth about his debts and his addiction from his family.  History will never know for sure...

It has never been easy for those who claim to have been abducted by aliens to convince their friends and family, let alone persuade authorities to investigate or plead their case in the court of public opinion. A recent incident in La Palma, Argentina, is becoming a classic case. A woman disappeared, is found wandering a day later 40 miles away, claims the last thing she remembers is a loud noise and bright lights, comes forward to identify herself and explain the experience to the media, and is doubted by UFO experts.

“I got up, drank two or three mates and began to see that the phone had some lines, something like interference.”

“The power went out, I walked outside and from there I don’t remember anything else. I did not see a light or anything, I only heard the wind as very strong and nothing else.”

“The next day she was sitting on the street, with her legs extended, her arms above her legs. When I open my eyes, I see the street and I look to one side, I see the edge and the other side the edge as well. I don’t remember how long I was sitting.” Google translation

Irma Rick, the woman who was said to have been be abducted by aliens on November 16, gave an interview to Canal Crónica TV, which was reported on by Infopico.com and Inexplicata. As noted in the original coverage, Irma also had a UFO encounter in 2002. Initial investigations by authorities mentioned that she was in no physical condition to have walked that far, was found in a severe state of shock and amnesia, and tracking dogs mysteriously lost her scent very near to her home.

“I only discussed it with my husband and my kids. What were they going to say? They’re just as startled as me. I would like to know what happened to me, but I still don’t know anything.”

(Irma, did you have any marks on your body?) “Yes, I have something that was done to my head. That’s all I have.”

Irma told the reporters she had no explanation for what happened to her and nor how she got the mark on her head. The reporters questioned her for any concrete evidence of a UFO or aliens – impressions in the ground – and she could not provide any. At the end, she agreed to be interviewed further by UFO researchers.

Luis Burgos (FAO-ICOU) is a well known South American UFO investigator. While he did not interview Imra Rick directly, he reviewed her testimony and the reports. In his report, he notes immediately that “there is nothing at all beyond the alleged abductee’s story.” No UFO investigators checked the site for radiation, electromagnetism, marks, prints or other signs of a UFO landing or alien contact. Burgos found Irma’s testimony on her UFO encounter in 2002. In that case, she reported seeing a UFO above her silo. Police later found that “bird droppings were burned on the silo and “pigeons no longer stop there like they used to.”

Again, no such investigation occurred after the latest incident, but what really bothered Burgos is Irma’s cellphone. While it’s odd that aliens would have allowed her to take in when abducted, what he finds really odd is that the investigators didn’t take away from her. The battery “was remarkably unaffected” during her disappearance and three calls were made from it. A GPS or phone company search would give the locations of the calls and the path the cellphone and Irma took during her 24-hour disappearance. That would make this “one of the easiest UFO cases to solve.”

If that’s the case, why wasn’t the phone inspected and the case solved? This would have been key evidence if Irma Rick was kidnapped, had some sort of medical lack-of-memory event or some other non-alien incident. Did the alien abduction story taint the investigation? Or was the police investigation controlled by the aliens? At this point, either is possible.

The case of Irma Rick is easy to doubt and hard to prove. It’s still unsolved.

 CRONICA TV Interviews Teleportation (or Abduction) Victim

Argentina: Interview with Irma About her

Teleportation (or Abduction) Experience

[An interview with the experience, conducted by Marco Bustamante (interviewer), Esteban (news presenter) and an unidentified woman, also a presenter for CRONICA-TV. Irma is the woman abducted by an alleged UFO in La Pampa. She saw a very bright light in her patio, vanished for 24 hours, and reappeared 65 kilometers away.]

Interviewer: We’re here in La Pampa with Irma. What a fright!

Irma: Yes, it was a fright. I don’t even know how to explain it.

Interviewer: Could you tell us what happened?

Irma: Yes, see here. My husband went away to look after another property and…he left, and I got up, had two or three cups of mate, I played around with the phone and such, drinking mate early in the morning, then the phone began getting crisscrossed with lines, like when the service is going out –

Interviewer; [interrupts] So it was interference?

Irma: Yes, yes. I suddenly began hearing a buzzing, like when the wind whistles against a window

Interviewer: A windstorm on the phone

Irma: Yes, a buzzing, a loud whistling, so, ah, I told myself –

Interviewer: But it was outside?

Irma: I’ll tell you. When I looked at the phone, and heard this sound, I went outside, thinking my husband had forgotten something. I stepped out as far as there [points] where that little dog is.

Interviewer:

[camera pans right]

Irma: Up to there. That’s as far as I remember. Ten meters. I remember nothing more.

Interviewer: So four or five meters to the dog, and you lost sight of everything?

Irma: By the time I got here, I had no memory of anything.

Interviewer: [to camera] Friends, Irma is the woman about whom everyone has spoken, but this is the first time she’s speaking out.

News Presenter: Mirta, it’s such a pleasure to speak with you…

Interviewer: Irma, Irma

News Presenter: I’m so sorry, I’m awful with names. I apologize. Tell me, what is it that you remember?

Irma: As far as remembering, I remember very little. All I remember is the interference to my phone, the signal was lost. At that time, I stepped outside to where we have a covered porch, and I recall nothing else after that. I didn’t see any lights or anything at all. All I heard was the wind, a lot of wind, like an incredibly powerful wind.

News Presenter: And you woke up the next day somewhere else? Am I right in saying this? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

Irma: Yes, yes. Look, all I remember is that I wasn’t sure if it was night or day. I tried to open my eyes and all I could see was lights, many, many lights. And everything was white, as white as snow, you see. Just like that. But that same brightness didn’t let me open my eyes. It was something that kept my eyes from opening up.

News Presenter: And you couldn’t tell if it was day or night, or where you were?

Irma: No, no. No, no, no. Nothing. Nothing at all.

News Presenter: And you couldn’t hear anything or see anything?

Irma: Only the light, a very bright light that made my eyes shut again.

Interviewer: What did you feel?

Irma: I have no idea. No idea whatsoever. The next day I remember –

Woman’s voice: Yes, please tell us.

Interviewer: Go ahead, tell us, tell us.

Irma: What I do remember the next day is that I was sitting on the street with my legs outstretched, my arms on my legs. When I opened my eyes, I saw the street, I was at the edge of the street, I could see the other side, but I don’t remember how long I was sitting there.

Woman: And that’s what I was going to ask you. You disappeared for 24 hours. Do you remember the perception of time that you had? Did you feel 24 hours had gone by?

Irma: No

Woman: Did it feel like six months?

Irma: No, I only know what they told me. I don’t remember how long I was –

News Presenter: Right, and the place you turned up…was it known to you, did you recognize it or not?

Irma: Yes, because I’d gone by there. Which is why I’m telling you, after I got up, I walked around, I felt my body and noticed that I had my phone, right? The phone was in the pocket of my housecoat and it was on.

Woman: Your phone was on?

Irma: I don’t know how long –

Woman: Yes.

Irma: I don’t know how long I wandered around until I began reacting. When I looked at the phone, and saw it was on, I saw the time was 5:10 in the morning. That much I recall.

Reporter: So at what time did you vanish?

Irma: Look, it must have been around 7 in the morning.

Interviewer: 7 in the morning on Monday, and you appeared on 5 in the morning on Tuesday.

Irma: No, I disappeared on a Tuesday and reappeared on Wednesday

Interviewer: Ah, because that hadn’t been ascertained so far, getting the dates right. You were gone on Tuesday and came back on Wednesday.

Irma: Supposedly it was Wednesday.

News Presenter: That means there’s a one-night window of absence between Tuesday and Wednesday

Irma: Yes, yes.

Woman: Twenty-four hours

News Presenter: A little less than that, though. Twelve hours.

Irma: I don’t know, because I was around seven in the morning that I went outside and then appeared the next day as far as I know.

Interviewer: At five-thirty more or less. And when you came to and regained consciousness, you had enough presence of mind to take photos?

Irma: No, that came later. What I did first was phone my children. But I couldn’t speak. I started texting the kids. They tried to video call me, but all I could do was move my hands around, because I couldn’t [speak].

News Presenter: How? How did you move your hands around?

Irma: I moved my hands around because I couldn’t speak. Words wouldn’t come.

News Presenter: But you were able to see your phone?

Irma: Of course, and that’s why I began to text.

Woman: What you did was get in touch by messaging.

Irma: Of course, it was the first thing I did.

News Presenter: In fact, when you got to the hospital, you still weren’t able to speak.

Irma: No, no, it was a long time later that I –

Woman: When were you able to speak?

Irma: I don’t know. I couldn’t tell you. I remember what happened from 5:30 in the morning to around 10:30 more or less.

Interviewer: What did they tell you at the hospital?

Irma: No, nothing. They just asked me questions, much as you’re doing right now. I gestured, because it was the only way I could answer

News Presenter: Irma, evidently, this is the first time you’re telling your story…the possible abduction…is that how you say it? By a UFO, in the enormity of the province of La Pampa. Now, you’ve surely told this to your friends, relatives, acquaintances. How did you say it, and how was it received? Did they believe you or not?

Interviewer: [to News Presenter] Esteban, look at this. This is the first time she’s spoken to anyone about it, except her husband. This is the first time she’s spoken about it.

Irma: And with my kids. I only discussed it with my husband and my kids.

News Presenter: And what did they say?

Irma: What were they going to say? They’re just as startled as me. I would like to know what happened to me, but I still don’t know anything.

News Presenter: But your children…you have two, is that right?

Irma: Three, three.

News Presenter: Your three children and your husband – I understand you all live together there in this farmhouse?

Irma: I’m sorry?

News Presenter: You all live together in the farmhouse?

Irma: No, not at all. My children are in town. I’m out here alone with my husband.

News Presenter: With your husband. So your husband was an entire day without seeing you?

Irma: Yes. Look, maybe it would be better if he told you.

Interviewer: What impresses me is –

News Presenter: [overlapping]

Interviewer: Esteban, do you know what impresses me? Is that to get to the place where she was found, you have to make a complete turn. You have no idea how complicated it is to get here. We’re some 20 kilometers away from the town, but you need at least between forty minutes to an hour by car to get here, because the road isn’t lovely, there are many parts…you even have to drive across a stream…how were able to do all this? What explanation do you have?

Irma:  What can I tell you?

Woman: Your clothes were clean.

Interviewer: When you were found, your clothes were clean.

Irma: Yes, but they said I was very dirty, smelly…at least that what they said.

Interviewer: So you walked 60 kilometers?

News Presenter: Excuse me, if you were able to walk sixty kilometers on rural roads, dusty roads, at the very least your shoes or slippers would be covered in dirt, at the very least. Your clothes too, but the footwear, definitely.

Irma: Yes, but no matter how much, I don’t think I could walk such a distance in that time.

Woman: Irma, did you have any marks on your body?

Irma: Yes, I have something that was done to my head. That’s all I have.

Woman: They did what?

Interviewer: [to Irma] You stay right where you are. We’re going to move the camera to show it. Where is the cut, Irma? Where is the cut on your head?

Irma: On top.

Interviewer: Okay, on top. We’re going to be showing you live this incision that appeared on her head.

[Irma brushes her hair aside with her right hand, camera focuses in to show a dark pink mark on the scalp.]

News Presenter: Look at that cut! so weird. This is incredible, Marco! It’s a meticulous incision. And a tough one to do, am I right?

Irma: What I want is an explanation. How would I do this to myself?

Interviewer: I have a confession to make. You know, Irma’s case made me think of…do you remember the case of the Chinese woman who left Ezeiza Airport, walked a few kilometers, she’d suffered a stroke and was unconsciously doing some things. Did the doctors tell you if you’d had a stroke or anything?

Irma: Well, they took me to [the town of] General Acha, they performed X-rays and [earpiece falls out]

Interviewer: [fumbles to replace Irma’s earpiece]

News Presenter: It’s very strange, the thing about your head.

Woman: Very strange.

Irma: It’s as if –

[On screen caption: “They Performed a Tomography and There’s Nothing To Be Seen”]

Interviewer: Can I ask you a favor? Could you get up and show us where it happened? Come, come, that way we walk around a little [puts earpiece into Irma’s ear. Both walk to the middle of the property. News Presenter thanks Irma for agreeing to the interview]. You were there, by that blue curtain, is that your dining room?

News Presenter: It was seven o’clock in the morning, is that right?

Irma: Yes, yes. That’s the house. [Points to door and a cement path leading to a covered car port] I walked right up to there. From the blue curtain to where the little white car is.

Interviewer: So the abduction took place right there?

Irma: I don’t remember, but I know I got that far.

News Presenter: There’s interference, Marco. Did you step on a wire or is there something else going on?

Interviewer: I’m using the cordless mike, no wires involved.

News Presenter: Maybe I’m going deaf. Anyway, go on, go on.

Interviewer: [Pointing at spot] So that’s where it would have taken place [Buzzing metallic interference becomes noticeable]

Irma: Yes, as far as I know, it was right there. I don’t remember anything beyond that.

Interviewer: [to News Presenter] Esteban, let me tell you…the distance from the door to the entrance of the rural road is at least one kilometer. If there was a vehicle involved, she would have noticed. Right, Irma?

Irma: Yes, I suppose I would have. Aside from that, take a look, all I could hear was the wind. A very strong wind that seemed to suck you in, but that’s where I lost consciousness.

Interviewer: Yes, it’s very odd

News Presenter: The production staff is checking the weather forecast for that day and there was no call for strong winds, at least from what the records show.

Interviewer: [Walks with Irma to the carport, which contains a Mitsubishi SUV. A sleeping dog gets up and walks away. Camera focuses on two sizeable indentations in the soil] We’re standing exactly on the spot where the abduction took place. [Looks at Irma] The place you were kidnapped.

Irma: Yes, yes.

Interviewer: And from here, to the place where you were found, there’s a 60 kilometer distance.

Irma: That’s more or less what they say.

Interviewer: [To News Presenter] But notice something. Irma takes very short steps.

News Presenter: [Interested in the indentations] Would those be the mark, the record, of the event? Am I saying it right or not?

Interviewer: Now we’re noticing the interference. We got cut off.

Woman: Did you notice that?

Interviewer: There’s some sort of interference.

News Presenter: I was saying that those indentations, depressions on the soil…could they be a record of the event? Could it be a key to this investigation?

Interviewer: Was there a ground impression, ma’am?

Irma: No, I don’t think so. Well, I didn’t see anything, so I don’t know.

Interviewer: [To News Presenter] Esteban, a little context here…

News Presenter: Stop, we saw what looked like a pit of some sort. Or is it a natural depression on the soil?

Irma: No, that’s something the dog does.

News Presenter: Oh, OK, nothing to do with it at all. And Irma, could you tell me, how did the animals react? The dog, the cats…how did they react?

Interviewer: Dogs are highly sensitive.

Irma: I couldn’t tell you.

Interviewer: You weren’t there.

Irma: There’s nothing I can say.

Woman: Did you hear them bark?

Irma: Can’t tell you. All I know is that I got this far and…that’s all I know.

Interviewer: This is all very strange, guys. Very, very odd.

News Presenter: Irma, would you be willing to tell your story to an agency tied to the research into these matters?

Irma: No, I didn’t speak to anyone.

News Presenter: But would you be willing to do so?

Irma: Yes, yes.

NASA Captures What No One Was Supposed To See

We may often think about the universe – how it came to being, what are its components and what is going on in its different parts? It is a complex situation as our mind must be entangled with unending series of enquirers and no simple answer is available. But thanks to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) we can finally quench our thirst for knowledge. We can hear the music of the moon and appreciate the butterfly made of stars, you can see space salad and so many other incredible things which NASA has shared with us. Today, we will discuss some astonishing mysteries of outer space discovered by NASA. It would not have been possible for us to know about any of these if it wasn’t for the hard work of genius minds working at this facility.

Date of sighting: Dec 7, 2021
Location of sighting: Vallejo, California, USA
Source: MUFON

 

Watch this family stop the car, get out and begin recording these two glowing lights in the sky. One red and one blue. A plane passes by them which allows us to get an estimate of the size of the UFOs which comes out to half the size of a car or 2 meters across. UFOs often travel in pairs for safety reasons and here we see such an occurrence. The UFOs probably came from below the water in the Marina. Any alien craft that can travel in space, can also travel in water or air. Since in was near the ocean...its safe to assume it came from an under water alien base and wanted to do some research of the how people are doing in Vallejo. 100% proof that aliens exist.

The UFO Phenomenon | Full Documentary 2021 | 7NEWS Spotlight

It is now beyond doubt that strange, anomalous objects filling our skies and caught on camera are the real deal. Even the Pentagon admits it’s true. These seemingly intelligently controlled craft are operating above the clouds, in our oceans and in our orbit – travelling at hypersonic speeds far beyond any known human technology and completing manoeuvres unknown to science.

The subject of conspiracy and derision for years, UFOs are now the hottest topic in Washington and the world.

Five-time Walkley Award-winning investigative journalist Ross Coulthart – who has been investigating the phenomena for the past two years – led the 7NEWS Spotlight team across the US, amassing never-before-seen compelling evidence and speaking to the key players behind an event that will change the course of history.

Featuring interviews with the highest echelons of military defence and intelligence officials, leading researchers, scientists and witnesses in America and Australia, this mind-blowing documentary years in the making seeks to answer the most fundamental question there is: are we alone?

The US director of national intelligence is expected to hand down an unclassified report next month that will change our understanding of life itself. On Spotlight, we reveal what is in that report.

7NEWS Spotlight: The UFO Phenomenon unearths startling new evidence of Australian Government cover-ups and extraordinary vision of unidentified aerial phenomena in Western Australia, Victoria and Queensland – all credible and important additions to the worldwide data being accumulated by the US.

For Coulthart, the project has become the most fascinating and challenging of his career, becoming the focus of his new book 'In Plain Sight', available now in Australia and soon in other territories:

China's Yutu 2 rover spots a cube-shaped 'mystery hut' on the far side of the moon – but experts say it's probably just a large boulder

• China's lunar rover has spotted a mysterious object on the far side of the moon

• A website affiliated with country's space agency referred to it as a 'mystery hut' 

• But experts believe it's likely a large boulder that was excavated by a meteorite

• Yutu 2 will now spend the next two months travelling to it to investigate further 

By SAM TONKIN FOR MAILONLINE

China's lunar rover has spotted a mysterious object on the far side of the moon, and is now on its way to investigate it further.

A website affiliated with the country's space agency referred to the cube-shaped item as a 'mystery hut', although experts believe it is likely a large boulder that has been excavated by a meteorite. 

The Yutu 2 rover, which almost three years ago arrived with the first spacecraft to ever land on the dark side of the moon, took pictures of the object on the horizon while working its way across the Von Kármán crater. 

This side of our lunar satellite is never visible from Earth and, prior to the Chang'e-4 mission, no space probe had ever reached that part of the surface because of communication difficulties. 

Weird: China's lunar rover has spotted a mysterious object on the far side of the moon (shown in the centre of the image above, on the horizon) and is now on its way to investigate it further

Theory: A website affiliated with the country's space agency referred to the cube-shaped item as a 'mystery hut', although experts believe it is likely a large boulder excavated by a meteorite

The solar-powered Yutu 2 has been traversing the 115-mile-wide (186km) Von Kármán crater ever since it landed on the moon attached to the Chang'e-4 spacecraft on January 3, 2019.

Last month it snapped pictures of a mysterious object 260 ft (80m) away to the north, just on the horizon, according to Our Space, a Chinese language science outreach channel affiliated with the China National Space Administration (CNSA). 

It referred to the object as a 'mystery hut' (神秘小屋/shenmi xiaowu), although this is a placeholder name rather than an accurate description of what it is thought to be.

Nevertheless, Chinese scientists are intrigued about the object and Yutu 2 is now set to spend the next 2-3 lunar days – the equivalent of 2-3 Earth months – travelling over to it to get a closer look.

Chang'e 4 was China's fourth mission to the moon and the second to send a rover. 

The Chang'e 1 and 2 missions were orbiters, while Chang'e 3 landed on the near side of the moon with the first Yutu rover.

Beijing also launched Chang'e-5 in November last year with the aim of returning the first moon samples to Earth in more than 40 years.

It achieved that feat a month later and initial analysis, revealed in October this year, found that the rocks date back 2 billion years.

The research, carried out by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, suggests the moon was volcanically-active more recently than expected.

The samples register as 1 billion years younger than those previously found on the lunar surface, according to the researchers.

Chinese scientists are intrigued about the object (pictured) and Yutu 2 is now set to spend the next 2-3 lunar days – the equivalent of 2-3 Earth months – travelling to it to get a closer look

The Yutu 2 rover (pictured), which almost three years ago arrived with the first spacecraft to land on the dark side of the moon, saw the object while travelling across the Von Kármán crater

Yutu 2 is now coming up to three years on the moon, having made its 'mystery hut' discovery on its 36th lunar day.

In February it captured images of the far side of the moon that showed an elongated 'milestone' rock on the lunar surface.

The moon rover spotted the sharp structure sticking out from the ground after awakening from a 14-day slumber during the dangerously cold lunar night.

Scientists believe the unusual rock may have formed after numerous impacts blew rock off the surface until the pointy formation was left.

The far side of the moon, colloquially known as the dark side, actually gets as much light as the near side but always faces away from Earth.

This is because the moon is tidally locked to Earth, rotating at the same rate that it orbits our planet, so the far side – or the 'dark side' – is never visible from our planet.

China has even more ambitious plans for its moon exploration programme.

In 2023 or 2024 it is expected to launch Chang'e-6, the first mission to explore the moon's south pole, while Chang'e-7 will study the land surface, composition and space environment in an overall mission, according to the Chinese space authority.  

China is also reportedly working on building a lunar base using 3D printing technology and sending a future crewed mission to the surface.

Chang'e-8 will likely lay the groundwork for this as it strives to verify technology for the project.

The CNSA is also building an Earth-orbiting space station where Chinese astronauts conduct scientific experiments, similar to the International Space Station.

The agency launched a mission to Mars in the summer of 2020 and landed a rover on the Red Planet in May 2021.

Alien Structure Found In Recent China Rover Photo, Dec 2021, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Dec 2021

Location of sighting: Earths Moon
Source: 

• http://www.cnsa.gov.cn/english/

A tall square structure was seen in the distance of a recent China moon lander photo. The object has two main sections which meet and does appear to be a building of at least 20 meters or more. However, if past NASA missions have taught me anything, its that you can't rely on them to go over and check it out. Because if it is an alien structure, they will say they went a different direction and didn't ever look at it. If its not an alien structure, then the China gov will show a close up of the square object in about 1 week. 

 

But what if China does find an ancient structure on the moon and actually reports it? It would be the greatest discovery announcement in humanities history. Do you really want China to take credit for that? They just may, the future is impossible to predict.

Pyramid In Sky, New Jersey, USA Dec 4, 2021, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: December 4, 2021
Location of sighting: New Jersey, USA
Source: MUFON 

 

This triangle UFO was recorded this week during sunset on the 4th of December. The video is taken from the passenger seat of a car so it is a bit difficult to see the UFO most the time, so I took the best 2 seconds and slowed it down 6X to allow you to see it. The object is thin and tall, like a wing, but triangle shaped. I have said many times that if you want to see a UFO, then watch a dozen sunsets and you will see one. When the setting sun is at a 90 degree angle to the clouds, it causes any cloaked or hidden UFOs to appear for 30 seconds to several minutes. Often UFOs also use a telepathic signal they send out...making human minds forget what they have seen soon afterward, till much later. I just wanted to say that last part, most UFO researchers do not know that, but there are an abundance of UFO reports that state that fact happening.

Mother whose son, 14 months, has rare uncombable hair syndrome that makes his blonde mop stand on end reveals his water-resistant locks are EASY to take care off and only need washing once a week

• Locklan, 14-months old, from Atlanta, Georgia has uncombable hair syndrome

• His mother, Katelyn Samples, 33, says it brings her joy, but hasn't been easy  

• The condition is extremely rare with just 100 cases worldwide

• Katelyn wants him to be proud but says strangers can make cruel comments  

By MAILONLINE REPORTER FOR MAILONLINE

A mother has revealed how her baby is one of around just 100 people in the world diagnosed with the ultra 'rare uncombable hair syndrome' - but she is teaching him how to be proud of his unruly locks.

Katelyn Samples, 33, from Atlanta, Georgia is mother to Shepard, two, and 14-month-old Locklan.

When Locklan was around five months old and his hair started to grow, Katelyn and husband Caleb, 33, noticed it was quite fuzzy and thought it was going to be curly.

'It was coming in straight up and so soft and fuzzy,' Katelyn recalled. 

Scroll down for video 

Locklan's fuzzy hair that his parents thought would eventually lead to curly locks, but instead they found out he has ‘uncombable hair syndrome’

The genetic condition is a very rare one with only just 100 people in the world diagnosed

'As it continued to grow it never laid down... a lot of people who see him call him a baby chick.'

Then during the summer, a stranger messaged Katelyn to ask if he had something called uncombable hair syndrome.

Katelyn had never heard of the rare condition, which causes a rare structural anomaly of the hair meaning it can't be brushed or flattened down, no matter how hard you try.

The condition is extremely rare with around just 100 cases worldwide, and some believe Albert Einstein's famous 'mad scientist' look was because he had UHS.

The Samples family: Locklan, centre bottom with his older brother, Shepard behind him, with their parents

Katelyn said: 'Because UHS is so rare our paediatrician referred us to a pediatric dermatologist/specialist at Emory in Atlanta, Georgia.

'They took samples of his hair and called us a few weeks later and confirmed it was in fact, Uncombable Hair Syndrome!

Uncombable Hair Syndrome: The condition that was made famous by Albert Einstein 

Uncombable hair syndrome is a rare inherited disorder that causes locks to stand up from the roots and not be flattened.

Such hair is usually silvery-blond or straw colored.

The hair usually appears between three and 12 months of age.

In rare cases, the syndrome has occurred alongside bone and eye abnormalities.

The syndrome usually resolves or improves at the onset of puberty.

It may be more manageable through applying conditioners and using soft brushes. 

Source: Genetic and rare diseases information center 

'His doctor had only seen one other case in the past 19 years. We have zero clue why he has it.'

Although UHS usually only affects the hair, Katelyn was still concerned about the diagnosis.

She said: 'Hearing your son has a genetic condition isn't easy, especially because it's so rare there isn't a lot of information on it. But as I learned as much as I could and connected with other parents around the world (in a UHS FB group), I became less scared and more appreciative of how unique Locklan is.

'Other than wild and crazy cool hair, he is perfectly healthy and very happy He does have severe eczema, which may be linked to UHS.'

At the minute, because Locklan is still young and his hair is short, his hair routine is pretty simple, and his parents have found that the unique texture actually means it's easier to keep it clean.

Katelyn said: 'His hair doesn't need to be washed much... maybe once a week.

'It's water-resistant so it takes a minute to saturate with water and gentle shampoo.'

His distinctive mane does attract attention when they are out and about - but usually, he doesn't mind.

Katelyn said: 'Lock is already a little celebrity. People come up to us everywhere we go.

'They ask about his hair, and sometimes even ask to touch it! At a fall festival in a local town people even asked to take pictures with him. He enjoys the attention.

'We really can't go anywhere without at least one person making a comment on his hair. It is almost always from a good place!

'However the mean/rude/sarcastic comments happen too and it breaks my heart.'

His mother has revealed that the 14-month-old's hair has been getting a lot of attention, from kind comments in real life to mean ones online. She's heard people say his hair looks like he stuck his finger in an electrical socket

Strangers have compared Locklan's locks to of a cat when it's scared, but his mother insists that it's nobody's business because they're not the ones dealing with it

His parents are adamant that they want their son to grow up celebrating his unique locks rather than shying away from it

Some of the comments Katelyn says they've heard include people calling it 'crazy' or saying he 'looks like he stuck his finger in a socket'.

Other people say things like "Wow his hair makes me happy", "He looks like my cat when its scared", and "That baby wakes up every day with a bad hair day".'

Katelyn added: 'For now myself and my husband are the only ones to have to deal with it but as Lock gets older he will too.

'Lock's hair is truly a source of joy and we celebrate it. I want him to grow up to be proud of his differences and what makes him unique.. everyone should!'

After getting his diagnosis, Katelyn and Caleb started his Instagram account @uncombable_locks in October to share pictures of their son and raise awareness.

The baby boy with the cool hair: Locklan's parents didn't know what to expect when their son's hair was growing

The silvery-blond or straw colored hair usually appears between three and 12 months of age

Locklan's parents want to use the Instagram account they started for their son to raise awareness for the rare genetic disease and also spark some happiness across the internet

Katelyn said: 'We set up his IG account because people truly are so intrigued by his hair and love it so much we wanted to raise awareness of such a rare genetic disease.

'My husband is very creative and came up with his IG name and set up the account!'

'Between his hair and his smile we wanted to spark some joy on the internet.'

A princess that died about 2,500 years ago lived a very mysterious life. Known as the Ukok Princess, her remains were found in Siberia back in 1993 and detailed analysis of her burial as well as her skeleton revealed some very interesting and mysterious facts.

An MRI scan conducted in 2010 revealed that she died in her mid-twenties from breast cancer. It’s unclear what her ethnicity was which has been debated for years as explained by one scientist, “The people of Pazyryk belonged to different ethnic group, in no way related to Altaians. Genetic studies showed that the Pazyryks were a part of Samoyedic family, with elements of Iranian-Caucasian substratum.”

It is believed that she was of important social status based on her complex tattoos that included mythical creatures. “Compared to tattoos found by archaeologists around the world, those on the mummies of the Pazyryk people are the most complicated, and the most beautiful,” stated Dr. Natalia Polosmak who was the scientist who found the mummy. “Tattoos were used as a mean of personal identification — like a passport now, if you like. The Pazyryks also believed the tattoos would be helpful in another life, making it easy for the people of the same family and culture to find each other after death.”

Next to her body was some marijuana which she may have taken as a form of relief from her breast cancer. Jewelry and Chinese silk were also found with the remains which is even more evident that she was of important status. “Chinese silk before was only found in ‘royal’ burials of the Pazyryk people — it was more expensive than gold, and was a sign of a true wealth,” one researcher noted. Additionally, six horses with colored felt saddles and detailed harnesses were buried with her.

Since she was buried alone, she may have been a shaman as stated by archaeologist Vyacheslav Molodin, “It was quite unusual to have a single Pazyryk burial. Usually men from this culture were buried with women. In this case, her separate burial might signify her celibacy, which was typical for cult servants or shamans, and meant her independence and exceptionality.”

She may have used marijuana for medicinal purposes.

Another interesting feature was that she had a shaved head and wore a wig. Archaeologist Natalya Polosmak described the wig in further detail, “The base of the wig was a felt “hat,” with two layers of women’s hair sewn into it. Between the layers was a black flexible substance, which helped to fix and hold the shape and the volume of the wig….A mop of hair on top was tightly wrapped around with a woollen cord, which helped this mop to stand upright… On top of this mop was worn a red “nakosnik” (a braided decoration made from threads), and atop of this structure was a bronze pin with a deer, standing on a sphere. The deer was made from wood, and was covered in golden foil.”

When her body was moved, natural disasters occurred and the Altai people believed it was because her spirit wasn’t at rest.

She certainly lived an interesting life with some details remaining a mystery throughout the centuries. We do, however, have an idea of her facial features because a taxidermist created a model of what the Ukok Princess might have looked like when she was alive about 2,500 years ago (those pictures can be viewed here.)

Throughout the history of the UFO phenomenon there have always been those cases of these mysterious objects leaving material evidence behind that has served to baffle and confuse, and one of these is something that has come to be known as “angel hair.” The phenomenon known as “angel hair” normally involves a fall of a sticky, fibrous substance reminiscent of wispy strands or threads of silk or cotton, or like fine hair, usually in conjunction with some sort of aerial anomaly. These strands, which can vary in length from a few inches to over a hundred feet, then fall to earth, and are reported as disintegrating upon any attempt to touch them or collect them, but will also evaporate on their own in short order. Perhaps some of the earlier known reports of the angel hair phenomenon reportedly occurred during a mass sighting of unidentified celestial phenomena over Nuremberg in 1571, and there was a fall of “flakes or rags about one inch broad and five or six inches long” on the towns of Bradly, Selborne, and Alresford in England in 1741, but it goes back even further than that, with incidents across history. UFO researcher Brian Boldman has found hundreds of cases of angel hair spread across the world and going back as far as 629 AD. However, while this has been a strange occurrence for some time, it wasn’t until the 1950s that angel hair would become connected to the UFO phenomenon, when a series of sightings of UFOs dropping the stuff would hit the headlines, after which it would become intrinsically linked to unidentified flying objects and extraterrestrials.

Perhaps the first sighting that would entrench angel hair into UFO lore happened in October of 1952, in Oloron, France. On this day, numerous witnesses had their early evening interrupted by what was described as “a narrow cylinder, apparently inclined at a 45-degree angle… slowly moving in a straight line toward the southwest,” as well as up to 30 spheres emitting bright red light. These objects were reportedly dropping a feathery, white substance like strands of hair, which fell to cover trees, houses, telephone poles, and the ground. Depending on the witness, this material would either slowly dissolve when touched, or turn into a gelatinous substance before vanishing without a trace. One witness claimed that the material was actually sticky enough to trap him, and after a brief struggle he would claim that it had risen back up into the air to float off. The same phenomenon would allegedly happen in the nearby town of Gaillac just ten days later.

Other strange cases of UFOs and angel hair would soon follow. On October 27, 1954, two witnesses named Gennaro Lucetti and Pietro Lastrucci reportedly saw from their balcony at St. Mark’s Square in Venice, Italy two “shining spindles” that were leaving a trail of a wispy white substance that floated off in the wind. Also in 1954 is the weird case of a soccer match that was stopped because of UFOs dropping angel hair in Florence, Italy. On October 27, 1954, the Stadio Artemi Franchi was packed with nearly 10,000 fans watching a game between the Fiorentina club and its local rival Pistoiese, when they stopped watching to stare at several egg-shaped objects slowly moving across the sky dropping a “silver glitter,” later described as threads of “glass fibers.”

Then on November 2, 1959, two disc-shaped objects appeared over the city of Évora, Portugal and began spewing angel hair. On this occasion some of the strands were allegedly actually successfully collected, and researchers from the University of Lisbon rather bizarrely described it as “a small organism featuring 10 ‘arms’ stretching from a central core.” It is unknown what became of these samples after that or what they actually were. With reports such as these and others like them, UFO researchers in the 1950s began routinely linking angel hair with UFOs, and this trend would continue on into later years. On August 9, 1998, a swarm of twenty UFOs described as “shiny silver spheres” were spotted flying over several rural farms near Quirindi, New South Wales, Australia. These mysterious objects were doing impressive aerial acrobatics and dropping cobweb-like filaments that covered the area beneath them, and a report on the incident in USA Today would read:

Residents of a small Australian community swear that they saw cobwebs fall from the sky after UFOs passed overhead. Dozens of residents of Quirindi called Australia’s National UFO Hotline after the incident. Mrs. E. Stansfield, 61 years old, said that she saw cobwebs falling from the sky. She saw twenty silver balls which passed overhead. When she went out to her daughter, she too was covered in fine strands of cobweb. When she tried to pick it up, it disintegrated in her hand. The family car had cobwebs all over it.

The strange show lasted around an hour and a half before the UFOs flew off and the angel hair dissolved away not long after. More recently, in 2003, Giorgio Batini, a journalist at the Florentine newspaper La Nazione, saw shining silver spheres flying through the sky from his office and these were seen by numerous colleagues as well, with them going to the roof to observe them fly over a nearby wooded area. He went to investigate and find that a patch of trees beneath where the spheres had been was covered in a white, fluffy material. He was able to collect a sample, very rare in these cases, and had it examined at the Institute of Chemical Analysis at the University of Florence. They would determine that the material contained the elements boron, silicon, calcium and magnesium, and that it was not radioactive, but were unable to examine it further as the analysis had destroyed the sample. What was this stuff? It was suggested that it might simply be spider webs, but the chemical analysis was totally different than what one would expect to find with webs, and so it remains a mystery.

There have been even more recent cases in which samples of the angel hair have been collected and analyzed as well. One is a case from Portugal in 2014, in which a sample was also allegedly procured, and in this case the material supposedly reacted and came alive under ultraviolet light. It is not known what became of these rather odd samples. In 2016, a metallic silver Barbell shaped object was sighted in Illinois, in the United States. The object was observed to fly out over a small lake, where it hovered and then began to rise while “exuding a white filament like material” that reportedly “stretched all the way to the ground.” The object was then joined by 12 other similar UFOs, which orbited the original object as it rose into the air, all of them shooting out the fibrous white material before shooting off out of sight. The two witnesses of the event were then able to collect some samples to send to UFO researcher Bill Schroeder, who would say of the incident and samples:

On November 4th, 2016 the Investigator was contacted by witness 1. He advised that he and witness 2 had observed a number of Barbell shaped objects in flight over his dwelling. The object first observed was silver metallic in color and 20 to 30 inches in length. When first observed the object was at rooftop level or about 35 feet over his head. The object was moving silently and laterally towards a small lake just south of the dwelling. At the time of the sighting witness 1 was in the company of witness 2. Witness 1 noted that there was no visible means of propulsion observed and no sound detected. As the object arrived to the center of the lake it stopped moving laterally and began to rise. As it started to rise it began exuding a white filament like material. The material was very fine and stretched all the way to the ground. After it had risen to several hundred feet is was joined by more than 12 other like objects that seemed to be circling it as it continued to rise. At this point in time the white material was spewing from the devices in such quantity it looked like rain. The objects rose together into a clear sky until they were no longer visible. The white material that had fallen remained visible in trees for about 24 hours before dissipating. When witness 1 contacted the Investigator, he was requested to get samples if possible. The witnesses were able to obtain some samples of the material.

The material was collected using a clean shish-kabob skewer. At the Investigators request the samples were placed in paper and plastic bags. The samples were sent to the Investigator via USPS Priority mail with tracking. The samples arrived intact on November 9th, 2016. Upon arrival the envelope was opened by the Investigator who was in the company of a second Investigator. The package and enclosed samples were photographed by the Primary Investigator. The samples were then placed in evidence bags and bottles by the Investigator. The bags and bottles were then sealed and initialed by the Investigator. The arrival, repackaging, and sealing of the evidence was recorded on video tape for later review. Witness 2 painted a picture that re-created the scene at the time of the sighting. A scan of the painting was forwarded to the Investigator. A partial jpeg image is included with this report. The evidence was placed in a safe at the Investigators residence. Part of the evidence was later sent to Robert Powell and Phyllis Budinger for examination and lab testing.

The angel hair was analyzed, but proved to be mostly biological in nature and similar to spider webs, although there were some anomalies, such as “small amounts of celluloidal material, i.e. plant derived substance, possibly inorganic nitrate and an unidentified rust/red material.” In the end, the analysis seems to be inconclusive, and although the sample seems to most resemble spider silk, the inconsistencies and the fact that the two witnesses were deemed to be very reliable by the investigator makes it all pretty weird.

One of the most common explanations for the angel hair phenomenon is that it is nothing more than spider webs. Some species of small spider will migrate or disperse from where they hatched from the cocoon by casting webs to the wind and drifting along, sometimes in great numbers for miles on end and at high altitude, and can leave an area covered with webs. However, this doesn’t seem to exactly explain why the material should vanish into thin air or disintegrate when touched. Another explanation is that it is atmospheric electricity causing floating dust particles to become polarized and form long filaments. Of course, considering the many cases of UFOs and angel hair being seen together, it has been theorized that it could be some sort of byproduct from an alien craft’s propulsion system or electromagnetic field surrounding it. To this day it has been debated and discussed, with no agreed upon answers. What is angel hair and why does it seem to appear in conjunction with UFOs? Is this merely a mundane phenomenon or is there something more to it? It remains to be seen.

Having read the heading above, you may very well be wondering what I’m talking about. Well, I’ll tell you: Porton Down, a highly secure facility in Wiltshire, England, and that is steeped in secrecy. And, there are several UFO connections to the place. With that said, here’s some background on the place. The BBC say: “Porton Down was set up in 1916. It was a center designed to test chemical and biological weapons. Nerve gases such as Sarin and CS gas were tested on volunteer servicemen. Servicemen were offered around £2 and three days leave as an incentive to take part in tests. Very few servicemen knew what they were volunteering for and some were even told it was research into the cure for the common cold. In 1953 it is alleged that serviceman Ronald Maddison died after taking part in a Sarin gas experiment. In 1962, one of Porton Down’s own scientists, Geoffrey Bacon died of the plague. Since the end of WWII, 20,000 people have taken part in experiments at Porton Down.” LSD was tested at Porton Down, too. On military personnel, no less. And as the Guardian newspaper stated in 2005: “Fifty years ago, Eric Gow had a baffling and unexplained experience. As a 19-year-old sailor, he remembers going to a clandestine military establishment, where he was given something to drink in a sherry glass and experienced vivid hallucinations. Other servicemen also remember tripping: one thought he was seeing tigers jumping out of a wall, while another recalls faces ‘with eyes running down their cheeks, Salvador Dalí-style.’ Mr. Gow and another serviceman had volunteered to take part in what they thought was research to find a cure for the common cold. Mr. Gow felt that the government had never explained what happened to him. But now he has received an official admission for the first time, confirmed last night, that the intelligence agency MI6 tested LSD on servicemen.”

Dead aliens on ice at Porton Down?

Now, onto the UFO angle. In January 1974, on the Berwyn Mountains in Wales, U.K., something strange happened. Some say it was the crash of a UFO. Others suggest a secret experiment involving the controlling of ball lightning and utilizing at as a weapon. What about that UFO angle and the Porton Down connection? Back in 1996,  the late Tony Dodd (a police officer and UFO researcher) met with a man who used the name of  James Prescott. “I cannot named my unit or barracks, as they are still operational,” Prescott told Dodd. Prescott did, though, admit that his base at the time was situated in the south-west of England, which – as the crow flies – may have placed his installation not too far from Porton Down. In a very baffling way – and although the incident on the Berwyn Mountains occurred on January 23, 1974 – Prescott and his colleagues were ordered to be on “stand-by at short notice” on January 18. That was five days before the Berwyns were briefly highlighted in the nation’s newspapers. Prescott got right into the heart of the story: “We then received orders to proceed with speed towards North Wales. We were halted in Chester in readiness for a military exercise we believed was about to take place. On 20 January, the communication to us was ‘hot.’ At approximately 20:13 hours we received orders to proceed to Llangollen in North Wales and to wait at that point.”

According to Prescott there was a huge amount of “”ground and aircraft activity” over and around those huge mountains  – three days before the ground shook those little old villages at the foot of the mountains. Prescott said that on that same night he and his colleagues were given further orders: “We, that is myself and four others, were ordered to go to Llandderfel and were under strict orders not to stop for any civilians” claimed Prescott. On arriving at Llandderfel – a small, Welsh village – they could see soldiers racing around. Senior officers were barking orders here, there and everywhere. Aircraft were zooming across the star-filled sky. And all of this was against a background of overwhelming darkness. Prescott and his colleagues were ordered to haul a pair of large, wooden boxes onto the back of their truck, which they did in rapid-fire time. According to Prescott: “We set off with our cargo and during the journey we stopped to get a drink. We were immediately approached by a man in civilian clothes, who produced an I.D. card and ordered us to keep moving, and not to stop until we reached our destination.”

(Nick Redfern)

The U.K.’s Ministry of Defense

Matters got really weird, as Prescott explained to Dodd: “We were at this time warned not to open the boxes, but to proceed to Porton Down and deliver the boxes. Once inside, the boxes were opened by staff at the facility in our presence. We were shocked to see two creatures which had been placed inside decontamination suits. When the suits were fully opened it was obvious the creatures were clearly not of this world and, when examined, were found to be dead. What I saw in the boxes that day made me change my whole concept of life. The bodies were about five to six feet tall, humanoid in shape, but so thin they looked almost skeletal with a covering skin. Although I did not see a craft at the scene of the recovery, I was informed that a large craft had crashed and was recovered by other military units. Sometime later we joined up with the other elements of our unit, who informed us that they had also transported bodies of ‘alien beings’ to Porton Down, but said that their cargo was still alive.”

Moving on, but still on the same story, there was a man named Bob Bolton, who I met in the English city of Norwich. He told me of his recollections concerning the Porton Down/James Prescott affair: “I spent thirty years in the Royal Air Force as an aircraft engineer. I had various postings, including at Akrotiri in Cyprus, RAF Honnington, and at RAF Valley in North Wales from 1971 to 1974. My wife and her family came from Corwen. At the time that the thing on the Berwyns happened, they lived up on the side of the mountain and her mom still lives there to this day. Corwen is part of the Berwyn range. From where their house is, if you walk up the path that goes behind the houses up and onto the top of the mountains, you’re talking perhaps a mile and a quarter away from where it all occurred; so it’s not very far away at all.

“She still remembers what happened on the night of 23 January. She said to me when I spoke to her about it just recently: ‘I saw aircraft and heard aircraft shot down during the Blitz and it was like an aircraft coming down, but the sound was louder, bigger, heavier that anything you could imagine to do with an aircraft.’ They didn’t know what it was. They heard the noise first of all and ran out into the road. They weren’t the only ones: all their neighbors ran out as well. It got louder and louder and louder and they couldn’t see anything in the sky but then they felt the impact where the houses shook and she had things fall off the mantle-piece in the house. “It was my wife’s dad, who told me the story about bodies being found on the mountain. His name was Harold Smith. But everyone called him Mick. He had a full-time job with Vauxhall at Elsmere Port; he was a local councilor and was also a part-time Sub-Fire Officer at Corwen. One day we got talking and got on to the subject of UFOs and he said to me: ‘Oh, well, you obviously don’t know about the incident up on the Berwyn Mountains.’

“I first heard the story from him around 1976. At that time he only told me that bodies had been brought down from the mountain and didn’t say anything more. Nothing about who brought them down or where they were taken. But from 1979 to 1982 I was posted to Germany and Mick and my wife’s mother came out to stay for a month and it was here that he told us a lot more. I remember that the information that he told us had apparently come from another person in the North Wales Fire Service whose son was in the Army. But it’s not surprising that he would have been told: Mick was a well-respected man and knew people throughout the North Wales Fire Service including at Bala and Wrexham. Mick told me that while the police weren’t involved, the Army was – heavily. I can’t give you an exact date when they visited and he told us this, but it was definitely between 1979 and 1982. He said that there were definitely [trucks] from Porton Down at the scene; that there was a lozenge-shaped object on the mountainside; and that bodies were taken off the mountain and driven to Porton. And to this day, his wife can also confirm that Mick told her the story about Porton Down and bodies too – either in the late 1970s or the early 1980s. I do remember Mick saying that when he had first told me this story in 1976, he didn’t know that it was the Army who had taken the bodies off the mountain and he didn’t know at the time that they’d been taken to Porton Down. So he must have learned that between 1976 and when he came to see us in Germany.”

(Nick Redfern)

Now, onto the Porton Down connection to the famous Rendlesham Forest “UFO landing” incident of December 1980 and the late Georgina Bruni, who wrote a book on the Rendlesham case titled You Can’t Tell the People. I first met Georgina in 1997. At the time, Georgina was already working on her Rendlesham book, You Can’t Tell the People. It was published in November 2000. Back in the late 1990s, Georgina and I were two of a very small group of people in the U.K.-based UFO community who were actively and regularly investigating the UFO-Porton Down links. As a result of this, we agreed to quietly and carefully share our data – including any and all new data as it came along – with each other. And that’s how I came to become a recipient of Georgina’s information on the Rendlesham story. As the research for her book advanced, Georgina discovered that in late December 1980 a team from Porton Down was dispatched into the heart of Rendlesham Forest. Dressed in full-body protection (hazmat) outfits, they entered into the woods on a classified operation. It was assumed among those in the UFO research community who Georgina had confided in, that the Porton Down team was there to try and determine what happened over the course of those three nights and to see if there were any chemical or biological hazards still present. So far, the Rendlesham-Porton Down issue has not developed much further. But, maybe one day…

A Whole Other World Under Our Feet ~ Massive D.U.M.B.'s .. Deep Underground Military Bunkers via Mad Malloy

Deep Underground Military Base abbreviation of D.U.M.B

The “conspiracy theory” of DUMBS or Deep Underground Military Bases, is pretty incredible. Most people have never even heard of DUMBS, and I suspect that even fewer believe that they are real. Even though there are many conflicting opinions on the existence of Deep Underground Military Bases, there seems to be a great deal of evidence that DUMBS do exist.

Colliding Gases at the Heart of the Running Man Nebula

Behold, the Herbig-Haro object known as HH45, captured by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST)! These objects are a rarely seen type of nebula made up of luminous clouds of dust and gas. These occur when newborn stars form within a nebula and eject hot gas, colliding with the surrounding gas and dust. The result is bright shock waves that look like mounded, luminous clouds in space!

In this image, HH45 is shown inside the nebula NGC 1977, part of the larger three-nebulae complex called the Running Man. The Hubble image managed to capture the clouds of ionized oxygen (O II) and magnesium (Mg II), indicated in blue and purple (respectively). These elements are of particular interest to researchers since they can identify shocks and ionization fronts with these objects.

Along with its companions, NGC 1975 and NGC 1973, NGC 1977 is one of three reflection nebulas that make up the Running Man Nebula located in the constellation Orion (just north of the massive Orion Nebula). The term reflection nebula refers to clouds of dust and fast that don’t emit light on their own but reflect light from nearby stars. In the case of NGC 1977, the entire region is excited by the hot young star 42 Orionis (HD 37018).

On the same day that the HH45 image was released, NASA released a second image (shown below) of a stellar jet inside NGC 1977 visible to Hubble. The orange plasma jet (visible at the bottom center of the image) stretches over two light-years through space and was emitted by the young star Parengo 2042. This star is embedded in a disk of debris that could give rise to planets someday.

The red and orange colors in this image indicate the jet and the related glowing shocks waves, which are visible because of how they are powered by the radiation of a nearby star – 42 Orionis. While this star isn’t visible in the image, its bright light can be seen entering the frame at the lower right and extending across the bottom half of the picture.

On the right side of the image, there are glowing blue ripples that look like they are flowing away from the jet, which are bow shocks facing 42 Orionis. In space, bow shocks happen when streams of gas collide and form crescent-shaped waves, similar to what ships at sea leave in their wake. Similarly, the bright western lobe of the jet is surrounded by a series of orange arcs that diminish in size with distance, forming what appears to be a conical shape.

Jets like this are particularly useful to researchers because the outflowing gas remains visible thanks to the ionizing radiation of nearby stars. Ordinarily, outflow jets are only visible when they collide with surrounding gas and dust, creating bright shock waves that disappear once they cool. It also provides a visual representation of what Hubble was looking for while observing this nebula.

Basically, Hubble observes reflecting nebulae like NGC 1977 in the hopes of witnessing stellar jets and planet-forming disks. The overall aim is to learn more about how debris disks from which planets form are affected by ionizing radiation and other factors in their local environment. Data obtained from these types of observations campaign ultimately allow astronomers to improve their models of planetary formation and help address the deeper questions of how and where life can emerge in our Universe.

According to Space.com, the China National Space Administration keeps a log of each of the rover's lunar days, which is around 29 Earth days, according to NASA. On its 36th lunar day, the rover spotted a cube-shaped object on the horizon about 260 feet away. Andrew Jones, a Space.com reporter tracking China's space endeavors, said officials called it a "mystery house." Here is what the object looks like:

Photos of the object have gone viral on Twitter, and some users have come up with some interesting, and funny, theories on what it might be. 

On the other hand, some people were wondering if this cube-shaped object could mean something dangerous:

Though there is no actual answer for what the cube is, it probably isn't something that is going to destroy Earth. Jones said the most likely explanation is it's actually a large boulder that appeared after an impact event. 

But China officials are intrigued by the object, and Yutu 2 will be traversing through the region and avoiding craters to get closer to it. It will take the rover two to three lunar days, or up to three months, to approach the object. Still, some are hoping for complete chaos.

China's Yutu-2 rover spotted a strange cube-shaped object in Von Kármán crater on the dark side of the moon.

Since the rover is about 80m away from the fuzzy object the rover team is planning to drive over and get a closer look at the object.

Although they are talking about a cube-shaped object, the object seems to consist of two towers. The true nature of the object should be become clearer as the rover gets closer.

The Legendary Nazi UFO – Is It Real?

Near the closing hours of world war two, the nazis started to experiment with more… unconventional aircraft designs. And technologies that some would consider, unnatural.

With the ability to fly in any direction at the moment’s notice, invisible to radar, and the ability to launch guided missiles, this new flying saucer would have changed the tide of war.

The question remains, Did the Nazi’s ever built a UFO and what happened to the project?

5 incredible new discoveries about our next home, the Red Planet Mars
NASA's rovers are scouring the surface of the Red Planet for any information that will assist in getting humans living on Mars.

Jak Connor

NASA has set a goal of getting a sustainable colony of humans on Mars by 2030, and in the years leading up to 2030 the space agency is collecting any relevant information that will assist them in the pursuit.

A big part of the data collection aspect of the mission is NASA's Mars rovers, Perseverance and Curiosity. Perseverance landed on the Red Planet on February 18, 2021 and has since been inspecting the Jezero Crater for any signs of ancient microbial life. Curiosity landed on Mars on August 6, 2012 and has been studying the geology of Mars for quite some time. Recently, Curiosity snapped an incredible view of the Martian landscape, check it out here.

Since the pursuit of Mars has begun there have been several notable discoveries, and some of them have happened in 2021. Below you will find five recent incredible discoveries about Mars that will assist the human civilization in creating a sustainable presence on Mars.

1. Mars Once Contained Water

It was recently confirmed in a paper from earlier in 2021 with images taken by NASA's recently landed Perseverance rover that the Jezero Crater was once flooded with water, and had a river delta present.

2. Marsquakes

NASA's InSight probe, which is equipped with extremely sensitive instruments that measure the vibrations of deep within Mars detected the first Marsquake, and provided data that indicates Mars' crust may be anywhere between 12 and 23 miles thick. Researchers are yet to determine if Mars' core is the same as Earth's.

"Provided details on the depth and composition of Mars' crust, mantle, and core, including confirmation that the planet's center is molten. Earth's outer core is molten, while its inner core is solid; scientists will continue to use InSight's data to determine whether the same holds true for Mars," explains NASA.

3. Volcanic Super Eruptions

Back in July, 2021, a paper was published in the journal Geophysical Researcher Letters that details a study on the topography and mineral composition of a select area that's located in the northern hemisphere of Mars. The study found evidence of "super eruptions".

 "Spewing water vapor, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide into the air, these explosions tore through the Martian surface over a 500-million-year period about 4 billion years ago."

4. Potentially Habitable Environment

In early September, NASA's Perseverance rover collected its first rock sample, and has since collected four more samples. The samples being collected are showing signs of groundwater being present, which may even contain microbial life.

"It looks like our first rocks reveal a potentially habitable sustained environment. It's a big deal that the water was there a long time," said Ken Farley of Caltech, the project scientist for the mission.

5. Dust Storms Dry Out Mars

Researchers believe that Mars once contained quite a lot of water, but are yet to find a singular reason why it lost it all. However, they have discovered some factors at would have been at play. Using three spacecrafts researchers were able to discover the dust storms warm up higher altitudes of the cold atmosphere.

"In the higher reaches of Mars, where the atmosphere is sparse, water molecules are left vulnerable to ultraviolet radiation, which breaks them up into their lighter components of hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen, which is the lightest element, is easily lost to space, with oxygen either escaping or settling back to the surface," NASA explained

Did Decades-Long Investigation Solve the Mystery of the Bermuda Triangle?

British oceanographers have closed a decades-in length examination concerning the Bermuda not really settled what is behind the many baffling vanishings in the area. 

The secretive 700,000sqm triangle, extending between the tip of Florida, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda, and has been the focal point of public interest for more than 100 years, when reports initially began arising of a surprising measure of wrecks in the area. The New York Times guaranteed somewhere around 50 boats, 20 airplanes, and in excess of 1,000 individuals have capitulated to the Triangle in the course of recent years. 

Presently, scientists from the University of Southampton say ships are being sucked into the sea by “rebel waves” more than 30 meters (100ft) in stature, and clarified their hypothesis on the Channel 5 narrative The Bermuda Triangle Enigma. 

“There are tempests toward the South and North, which meet up… we’ve estimated waves more than 30 meters. The greater the boat gets, the more harm is done,” Dr Simon Boxall, an oceanographer who drove the review, told The Sun. 

While numerous speculations to clarify the vanishings have been drifted about throughout the long term, researchers initially focused on the oddity wave theory when a 18.5 meter rebel wave was estimated in the North Sea by satellites in 1995. 

Rebel waves happen when a strangely enormous wave crashes in the untamed ocean. Ordinary rushes of around 12 meters have a breaking strain of 8.5 psi (pounds per square inch). Present day ships are intended to endure around 21 psi, however rebel waves can have a devastating strain of up to 140 psi – enough to bring down even the sturdiest of boats. 

For the narrative, Dr. Boxall and his group re-made the mammoth waves utilizing indoor test systems and fabricated a model of the USS Cyclops to see what impact it would have on the huge boat. The Cyclops disappeared in the triangle in 1918 with 309 individuals ready. 

“Assuming you can envision rebel waves with tops at one or the flip side, there’s nothing beneath the boat, so it snaps in two. Assuming it occurs, it can soak in a few minutes,” said Boxall. 

The latest vanishing was simply last year when a plane conveying four individuals disappeared over the notorious triangle. The gathering had gone through Mother’s Day in Puerto Rico and were flying back to Florida when their twin-prop plane disappeared from radar. The inquiry was ultimately canceled and no bodies were at any point found.

The S30 UFO – Bizarre Aircraft With Unrealistic Maneuverability Filmed Over Nellis Afb Test Range

By Olav Phillips

As most of our readers already know, the Nellis Test Range complex has been home of some of our country’s most highly classified TOP SECRET and BLACK PROJECTS. Secret projects such as the U2, SR71, the B2 bomber, the Aurora, and the F117A Nighthawk Stealth fighter have all been based or tested there at one time or another.

It only makes sense that this is where we would expect to find some our latest technological developments and it is with that in mind that we now discuss one of the more exotic aircraft we have seen come out of Nellis.

This UFO was caught on film by a government controlled state-of-the-art radar tracking system at a remote tracking location known as Area S30 on the Nellis Test Range in 1994. The radar-controlled cameras monitor the 7700 square miles above the range.

The purpose of the cameras are to record jet-fighter training and tactical exercises; after all, Nellis is known as “The Home of the Fighter Pilot,” as most of America’s ace fighter pilots have done residence at Nellis.

The most logical explanation for this UFO would be that it is some sort of secret project, but typically the contractor personnel at the tracking stations are not exposed to these highly classified projects and the cameras are normally deactivated when those types of projects are flying.

Tolicha Peak, Quartz Mountain or Black Mountain?

The exact location on the test-range where this “Area S30” is located has not been determined, but a few frames of the video reveal a mountain range with what appears to be a couple of radar domes.

It was reported that it might be either Tolicha Peak, Quartz or Black Mountain. The Tolicha Peak area is one of interest because this is where the Tolicha Peak Electronic Combat Range is located.

Even though the object was photographed by a very good remote controlled fixed mounted camera, it still has that fuzzy gassy cloud cotton-ball look about it which seems to be common among some UFOs. One would think that the clarity and resolution would have been much better, but that seems to be typical of these objects.

The object is anomalous for a couple of reasons. It does not resemble any known aircraft and has no apparent wings or means of propulsion that are visible.

The flight characteristics of the craft are totally unconventional compared to known aircraft. When viewing the video, the object appears to make abrupt right-hand turns and horizontal climbs.

The physical shape of the object is hard to ascertain and appears to change shape from frame to frame; at times it appears to be 4 spheres with a darker appendage in the middle.

Air Traffic Control – Radio Transmission

This is a snippet of the radio transmission captured with the video. What this transmission clearly shows is that the ATC/Range Control had no idea what this aircraft was and what is was doing.

CONTROL: I show an aircraft headed north pretty fast.
OPERATOR 1: I got a helo [slang for helicopter].
FEMALE OP: At eleven?
OPERATOR 1: Yeah, can’t figure out where he’s at on this thing.
CONTROL: Be advised… We’re filled to capacity.
OPERATOR 2: What is that?
OPERATOR 1: I don’t know. No idea. A helo?
FEMALE OP: Looks like one. It’s way up high no. It’s going, like straight up.
OPERATOR 1: We acquired this unknown object. Aircraft of some type. We’re going to put a launch up on it anyways, see what happens. It seems to be hovering there. [Gives bearing of UFO]. It appears to be going outbound real slow. There’s hardly any range velocity. I don’t know if this would impact or not….[Simulated launch occurs.] We have impact. We’ll call this a kill on this unknown aircraft. T-1 Control doesn’t know what type of aircraft this is either…
OPERATOR 2: That’s weird.
OPERATOR 1: Strange.

As an added bonus to serious investigators, included on the videotape are the camera tracking information indicators which include the azimuth, elevation and range-to-target indicators. With this information, the anomalous nature of the object’s movements can be studied in greater detail.

In the original “Sightings” TV episode, where the video was made available, it was reported that the videotape was smuggled out by base employees and this may be true, but we find it hard to understand how that could happen without the personnel involved being found out.

Could there be a more clandestine motive behind the release of this video? If so, what would be the purpose?

In a week, an asteroid will break into Earth’s orbit: NASA

by SunniyaZ

This month, an asteroid the size of the Eiffel Tower is hurtling towards Earth, and experts are calling it a very remarkable chunk of rock. Because of its closeness to Earth, the asteroid 4660 Nereus is designated as a possibly dangerous object. NASA anticipates it to be at its closest point to Earth in 20 years on Dec. 11. In 1982, the asteroid was found.

The 4660 Nereus is a 330-meter asteroid in the shape of an egg that will pass within 2.5 million miles of Earth during the next week, according to astronomers.

Even though it sounds like a long way away, it’s just around 10 times farther away than the moon, which is considered close by cosmic standards. A near-Earth object is an asteroid or comet that approaches within 30 million miles of Earth’s orbit, according to NASA.

Nereus has been recommended as a destination for a space mission several times, according to Forbes, because of its egg form, size, and orbital route around the sun, it is a perfect asteroid to explore. Researchers regarded Nereus as a strong possibility for a rendezvous mission as early as 2009.

We’ll talk about it in this article. In a week, an asteroid will break into Earth’s orbit: NASA So, in order to satisfy your curiosity, let’s get right into it.

Six months is insufficient time to prepare for an asteroid collision

The simulation’s fake asteroid was dubbed 2021PDC. According NASA’s scenario, it was first discovered on April 19 and has a 5% probability of crashing with Earth on October 20, six months after its detection.

However, on Day 2 of the experiment, updated impact-trajectory estimates revealed that the 2021PDC would almost probably hit Europe or northern Africa. The participants in the game evaluated a variety of missions in which spacecraft may try to kill or redirect the asteroid from its course. However, they determined that such missions would not be able to get off the ground in time to avoid the asteroid’s collision.

We would not be able to launch any spacecraft on such short notice with present capabilities if confronted with the 2021PDC hypothetical scenario in real life, the panelists added. They also explored employing a nuclear explosive device to detonate or disturb the asteroid. They discovered that deploying a nuclear disruption mission might greatly lower the chance of impact damage.

The majority of asteroids go unnoticed, and many are discovered too late.

It’s tempting to believe that scientists would discover an asteroid similar to 2021PDC with considerably more notice than six months in the actual world. However, the world’s surveillance of near-Earth objects (NEOs) is grossly inadequate.

A NEO is space rock with an orbit that brings it within 125 million miles of the sun. However, NASA’s Johnson stated in July that “we’ve only detected approximately a third of the population of asteroids out there that potentially pose an impact threat to the Earth.

Of course, mankind wants to prevent a similar surprise to that one the dinosaurs experienced 65 million years ago when a 6-mile-wide asteroid collided with the Earth. However, scientists have missed several massive, deadly objects that have come near in recent years.

In July, a 3-mile-wide shard of space ice called Comet Neowise came within 64 million miles of Earth. Nobody knew the comet existed until it was found approaching four months before by a NASA space telescope.

In 2013, a meteor with a diameter of 65 feet entered the atmosphere at a speed of 40,000 miles per hour. It erupted without warning above Chelyabinsk, Russia, blasting a shockwave over the region, shattering windows and damaging structures. More than 1,400 individuals were injured as a result of the accident.

NASA is experimenting with strategies to thwart an asteroid.

NASA has looked at what choices scientists would have if they discovered a deadly asteroid heading for Earth. Detonating an incendiary material near the space rock, as recommended by the exercise participants, or shooting lasers at the asteroid to heat and melt it enough to change its direction are two possibilities.

Another option is to send a spaceship up to collide with an approaching asteroid, knocking it off course. This is the strategy that NASA is most committed to The FDA plans to conduct a test of this technology later this year. In the fall of 2022, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test will launch a spacecraft to the asteroid Dimorphos and intentionally crash it.

Dimorphos’ orbit may be altered as a result of the impact, according to NASA. While the asteroid poses no threat to Earth, the expedition might demonstrate that diverting an asteroid with adequate advance time is conceivable.

How many asteroids near Earth have been detected so far?

More than 19,000 near-Earth asteroids had been detected as of the start of 2019. Every week, an average of 30 new discoveries are made. The 15,000th near-Earth asteroid was discovered on October 13, 2016, marking a 50 percent increase in the number of known near-Earth asteroids since August of that year, when discoveries surpassed 10,000.

Since 1998, when NASA started its Near-Earth Object Observations Program and began tracking and documenting them, more than 95 percent of these objects have been found through NASA-funded surveys. The Center for NEO Studies at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory keeps track of asteroid discoveries.

Conclusion 

Astronomers were busy collecting measurements of the asteroid Apophis during its most recent flyby, which occurred in early March. Later calculations allowed NASA scientists to declare on March 26, 2021, that Earth is safe for at least the next 100 years from a collision with the moderately massive asteroid.

Radar readings at NASA’s Beatty Deep Space Communications Complex in Florida and the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia have ruled out a collision in 2068, the only year in the next 100 with modest risk. Impacts during the forthcoming flybys in 2029 and 2036 have been ruled out by previous observations.

Actual Image of Real World WARP Bubble.

Credit: Dr. Harold G. White, Limitless Space Institute

Warp drive pioneer and former NASA warp drive specialist Dr. Harold G “Sonny” White has reported the successful manifestation of an actual, real-world “Warp Bubble.” And, according to White, this first of its kind breakthrough by his Limitless Space Institute (LSI) team sets a new starting point for those trying to manufacture a full-sized, warp-capable spacecraft.

“To be clear, our finding is not a warp bubble analog, it is a real, albeit humble and tiny, warp bubble,” White told The Debrief, quickly dispensing with the notion that this is anything other than the creation of an actual, real-world warp bubble. “Hence the significance.”

THEORETICAL WARP DRIVES AND SCIENCE VISIONARIES

In 1994, Mexican Mathematician Miguel Alcubierre proposed the first mathematically valid solution to the warp drive. More specifically, he outlined a spacecraft propulsion system previously only envisioned in science fiction that can traverse the cosmos above the speed of light without violating currently accepted laws of physics.

That solution was lauded for its elegant mathematics, yet simultaneously derided for its use of theoretical materials and massive amounts of energy that appeared virtually impossible to engineer in any practical way.

Over a decade later, this theory underwent a major shift, when Dr. White, a then NASA-employed warp drive specialist and the founder of the highly respected Eagleworks laboratory, reworked Alcubierre’s original metric and put it into canonical form. This change in design dramatically reduced the exotic materials and energy requirements of the original concept, seemingly providing researchers and science fiction fans alike at least a glimmer of hope that a real-world warp drive may one day become a reality. It also resulted in the informal renaming of the original theoretical design, a concept now more commonly referred to as the “Alcubierre/White Warp Drive.”

Since then, The Debrief has covered a number of physicists and engineers taking their own stabs at designing a viable warp drive, including an entire group of international researchers working on a warp drive that requires no exotic matter. However, like Alcubierre and White before them, the warp concepts of these would-be visionaries all still remain theoretical in nature.

Now, it appears the situation has changed.

TIMING IS EVERYTHING, ESPECIALLY AT WARP SPEED

It is often said that timing is everything. Therefore, it is not surprising that back when Dr. White began his latest DARPA-funded research into custom Casimir cavities (a unique, micro-scale structure with all types of promising applications), he definitely did not expect to stumble upon this potentially historic discovery, particularly one supporting a theoretical concept that has often defined his public persona.

“Some work we’ve been doing for DARPA Defense Science Office is the study of some custom Casimir cavity geometries,” explained White at the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Propulsion Energy Forum in August of 2021, an event attended by The Debrief. “In the process of doing that work, we kind of made an accidental discovery.”

Without going into the complicated physics behind Casimir cavities and the tantalizing quantum-scale forces often observed in these unusual structures, it suffices to say that they are in no way related to warp drive theory or mechanics. At least, they never had been before. But, says White, it is work that he and his LSI team are passionate about, and something DARPA believes has a number of possible applications.

So, whether by pure coincidence or some sort of personal destiny, it appears that one of the handful of engineers on the planet who would immediately know what it was he was looking at when conducting his Casimir cavity research was in the exact right place at the exact right time to notice a striking similarity to his warp drive passion project and his current research, an observation that may have otherwise gone unseen.

“I think this is a great example of sometimes you are doing work for one reason, and you find something else you really didn’t expect to find,” said White at the AIAA conference.

Therefore, in this particular case at least, it seems that timing was indeed everything.

PEER REVIEW AND CONFIRMATION OF WARP BUBBLE

“While conducting analysis related to a DARPA-funded project to evaluate possible structure of the energy density present in a Casimir cavity as predicted by the dynamic vacuum model,” reads the actual findings published in the peer-reviewed European Physical Journal, “a micro/nano-scale structure has been discovered that predicts negative energy density distribution that closely matches requirements for the Alcubierre metric.”

Or put more simply, as White did in a recent email to The Debrief, “To my knowledge, this is the first paper in the peer-reviewed literature that proposes a realizable nano-structure that is predicted to manifest a real, albeit humble, warp bubble.”

This fortuitous finding, says White, not only confirms the predicted “toroidal” structure and negative energy aspects of a warp bubble, but also resulted in potential pathways he and other researchers can follow when trying to design, and one day actually construct, a real-world warp-capable spacecraft.

“This is a potential structure we can propose to the community that one could build that will generate a negative vacuum energy density distribution that is very similar to what’s required for an Alcubierre space warp,” explained White.

A PROPOSED PATH FORWARD

To further evaluate his groundbreaking results and move the research forward, White and his team have come up with a proposed design for a testable, nano-scale “warp drive craft.”

“Specifically,” said White during the AIAA presentation, “a toy model consisting of a 1-micron diameter sphere centrally located in a 4-micron diameter cylinder was analyzed to show a three-dimensional Casimir energy density that correlates well with the Alcubierre warp metric requirements.”

“This qualitative correlation,” he adds, “would suggest that chip-scale experiments might be explored to attempt to measure tiny signatures illustrative of the presence of the conjectured phenomenon: a real, albeit humble, warp bubble.”

White expanded further on that idea in yet another email to The Debrief. 

“This is a potential structure we can propose to the community that one could build that will generate a negative vacuum energy density distribution that is very similar to what’s required for an Alcubierre space warp.”

When asked by The Debrief in December if his team has built and tested this proposed nano-scale warp craft design since that August announcement, or if they have plans to do so, White said, “We have not manufactured the one-micron sphere in the middle of a 4-micron cylinder.” However, he noted, if the LSI team were to undertake that at some point, “we’d probably use a nanoscribe GT 3D printer that prints at the nanometer scale.” In short, they have the means, now they just need the opportunity.

There is “no plan to do this currently,” explained White, as “we are laser-focused on the custom Casimir cavities.”

Nonetheless, after proposing this further path for future research, White and his team have also outlined a second testable experiment that involves stringing a number of these Casimir-created warp bubbles in a chain-like configuration. This design, he said, would allow researchers to better understand the physics of the warp bubble structure already created, as well as how a craft may one day traverse actual space inside such a warp bubble.

“We could go through an examination of the optical properties as a result of these little, nano-scale warp bubbles,” explained White at the AIAA conference. “Aggregating a large number of them in a row, we can increase the magnitude of the effect so we can see (and study) it.”

CRAWL, WALK, RUN

Given that DARPA is paying the LSI Eagleworks lab to explore Casimir cavities and not the accidental discovery of a warp bubble, regardless of its potentially staggering implications (at least, not yet), it is not surprising that White and his team remain “laser-focused” on the work at hand. Plus, given the sometimes secretive nature of work funded by groups like DARPA, even if White and his team were planning to conduct the two tests outlined once their current project is completed, it may not be immediately made public until another significant breakthrough is cleared for publication.

(Note: White confirmed to The Debrief that the current DARPA-funded research is not classified, hence his freedom to publish the warp bubble result. However, the normally forthcoming researcher was more tight-lipped when asked whether or not any future, potentially DARPA-funded work on a nano-scale warp bubble spacecraft might be in the offing once this current work is finished.)

In the end, especially given the magnitude of this discovery and its potential implications, White believes it is only a matter of time before his mini-warp craft is designed and tested, a milestone that he believes will slowly but surely move the whole process toward the ultimate goal of a warp-capable spacecraft.

“This discovery allows us to identify a real structure that can be manufactured that will manifest a real warp bubble,” White explained to The Debrief.

When asked by The Debrief how quickly a successfully-tested nano-scale “craft” like the experimental one his team proposed could be scaled up to something that can actually be flown in space, he offered a more realistic approach to this research, along with an almost poetic piece of hard-earned advice.

“It is early to ask questions about some type of actual flight experiment,” said White. “In my mind, step one is to just explore the underlying science at the nano/micro scale,” before moving toward a larger craft.

Or put more simply, as White did to end that same email, “Crawl, walk, run.”

ANOMALIES In The SCHUMANN RESONANCE And In The Earth’s MAGNETIC FIELD

The Schumann Resonance has skyrocketed in the past couple of months, and researchers don’t seem to find a solid reason for what’s happening. The Earth’s magnetic field is also weakening, and scientists don’t know the reasons for this.

So much is happening in this century and people all over the world are starting to feel these changes. A great transition is upon us but there is also a danger for everything that is happening on Earth, starting with climate change, a danger that involves not only humans, but the whole planet, our only home.

Without the earth’s magnetic field we could not live. This complex and dynamic force protects us from the radiation found in space and solar winds. It is generated by the core of the Earth, a central Heart or Sun which is about 3,000 kilometers below our feet, which, like a conductor, generates electric currents and etheric waves.

The problem is that in the last 200 years the magnetic field has lost about 9% of its strength. The large, weakest region is found in Africa and South America and is often referred to as the “South Atlantic Anomaly”.

Over the past five years, a second center of least intensity has emerged in southwestern Africa, indicating that the South Atlantic Anomaly could split into two separate cells. Scientists from the Swarm Data, Innovation and Science Cluster (DISC) are using data from ESA’s Swarm satellite constellation to better understand this anomaly. These satellites are designed to accurately identify and measure the different magnetic signals that make up the earth’s field.

Jürgen Matzka, of the German Research Center for Geosciences, says: “The new eastern low of the anomaly has appeared in the last decade and has been developing vigorously in recent years. We are very fortunate to have the Swarm satellites in orbit to study their development. The challenge now is to understand the processes in the Earth’s core that drive these changes. ”

ANOMALIES IN SCHUMANN RESONANCE

As mentioned above, the Earth has a central Sun or Heart therefore a heartbeat that emits a pulsating electromagnetic field. It is called the “Schumann Resonance” and envelops all living things in a natural and constant frequency, pulsing at exactly 7.83 Hz for thousands of years.

For the A̳n̳c̳i̳e̳n̳t̳ Rishi Indians, this number had a special meaning, as it was identified with the frequency of OM, the sacred and cosmic sound in the Hindu religion. As you are about to see, it now has special significance for all who are becoming aware of this great shift taking place.

For the Western world, the Schumann resonance represents the frequency of the earth’s electromagnetic field. It has pulsed steadily at 7.83Hz with very little variation since it was predicted in 1952.

That all changed in June 2014 when the Russian Space Observatory system showed a sudden surge in activity, peaking at 8.5Hz and even reaching 16.5Hz on some other days.

The researchers were really baffled by this anomaly which had never been recorded before and were unsure how to interpret it. Stacked on top of this dilemma, other unusual peaks have recently been detected, surprisingly rising to over 30Hz, far above the milestone set in 2014. So what to do with this sizable jump in Schumann resonances?

What researchers can mutually agree on is that these changes clearly mean a change of some kind. It is now believed that humans, who have resided in a latent state for thousands of years, are awakening to a greater reality where thoughts will materialize almost in an instant.

The Schumann resonance and the change that has been taking place in recent years are some of the best evidence we have of this change. It has long been suspected that human beings acting at the level of “collective consciousness” may impact the structure of the magnetic field and create disturbances (or some influence) in it, such as the recently detected spikes. This is usually amplified during times of a high spike in states of anxiety, passion, or tension.

This is all based on the fact that the Schumann frequency is “in tune” with the alpha and theta states of the human brain. These rising resonances naturally correspond to the activity of human brainwaves, which means that if Mother Earth is regulating her vibration frequency, then we might as well, especially due to our bond with her.

Another thing to keep in mind is the acceleration of time that has been felt by a growing number of people lately. Since the planet is pulsing at a more careful rate, it could also mean that this is affecting time itself, speeding it up.

So why do we feel that time passes faster than usual?

The reason is apparently related to the acceleration of the Schumann Resonance which makes us perceive a period of 24 hours as about 16 hours. We know that the “heartbeat of the Earth” is accelerating, and after thousands of years with a rigid notion of time, where a full day counted 24 hours, the accelerating “heartbeat” of the Earth is making us feel only two thirds of that. temporal quantity, due to our unconscious adjustment to this New Age frequency.

China moon rover will investigate cube-shaped 'mystery' object on lunar far side

Is that a boulder? Or something else?

 Amanda Kooser 

That distant, somewhat cube-shaped object is the "mystery house" China's Yutu-2 rover is planning to take a closer look at.

The Yutu-2 rover is on a roll. It's been exploring the far side of the moon since early 2019 as part of China's Chang'e-4 lunar lander mission. It now has its eyes set on a strange-looking cube-shaped object it spotted in the distance.  

Andrew Jones, a journalist who covers the Chinese space program for SpaceNews and Space.com, highlighted a new rover update in a series of tweets Friday. The nickname for the cube-shaped object translates to "mystery house." 

Ah. We have an update from Yutu-2 on the lunar far side, including an image of a cubic shape on the northern horizon ~80m away from the rover in Von Kármán crater. Referred to as "神秘小屋" ("mystery house"), the next 2-3 lunar days will be spent getting closer to check it out. pic.twitter.com/LWPZoWN05I

— Andrew Jones (@AJ_FI) December 3, 2021

The rover team is planning to drive over and get a closer look at the object.

As with Yutu-2's intriguing discovery of a "gel-like" substance inside a crater in 2019, don't get too excited for aliens. That substance turned out to be glassy-looking rock. And as far as I know, Stanley Kubrick never planted a monolith on the real moon, and those metal sculptures that were once all the rage on Earth haven't made the trek across space.  

Yutu-2's view of the cube is fuzzy and far-off, so the object's true nature should become clearer as the rover gets closer. The most likely explanation is a boulder. This part of the moon is pockmarked with impact craters, which can feature quite a bit of chunky debris.

The Chang'e-4 mission represents the first surface exploration of the far side of the moon. The rover's work has helped scientists learn about what's happening with the geology under the lunar surface.   

Don't look to Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon for scientific information about the lunar far side. China's rover is solar-powered, so it periodically goes into hibernation when it's dark and then gets back to work when the sun is out in the Von Karman crater.

According China Daily, Yutu-2 has already traveled 2,756 feet (840 meters) across the moon. Its next jaunt should shed some light on the "mystery house."

Proof that Humans are Not Alone

Ancient Astronaut Theory has existed in popular culture for nearly 50 years, asking the question whether extraterrestrials visited Earth in the remote past.  

{ https://www.latest-ufo-sightings.net/ }

A new dinosaur that had a tail similar to a weapon that the Aztecs once used has been found and it is very odd. The new species, which has been named Stegouros elengassen, looked like a mix between a stegosaur and an ankylosaur.

Described as being a “very weird” dinosaur, paleontologists unearthed the remains in Chile – specifically in rocks that date back between 74.9 and 71.7 million years during the Cretaceous Period. The skeleton, which was around 80% complete, was very well preserved. In an interview with Live Science, Alexander Vargas, who is a vertebrate paleontologist in the Department of Biology at the University of Chile, described the skeleton by stating that “it’s weird, because it’s articulated [the bones are in order] from the waist down, and everything from the waist up was kind of scattered.” This may have been because it died near a river or even in quicksand but that theory hasn’t been proven yet.

(Not the Stegouros elengassen)

What’s so unusual about the 6.5-foot-long (2 meters) ankylosaur was that it had a deadly armored tail that looked like an Aztec war club as Mr. Vargas explained, “The tail would have looked like a sword; it’s so flat,” adding that it was “a bit like an Aztec sword, or the Aztec club called the macuahuitl.” It is the shortest tail of any armored dinosaur and contained seven paired flat and big osteoderms – the first two pairs were situated near its body while the others were merged together into a deadly flat weaponized tail.

“We all know tail clubs, we all know the tail spine, but this is a new lineage … a Southern Hemisphere lineage that evolved a third kind of tail weapon,” Mr. Vargas added.

Another interesting discovery the researchers made regarding the Stegouros elengassen involved the evolution of ankylosaurs. Those living in the northern supercontinent Laurasia were very different than the ones inhabiting the southern supercontinent Gondwana (Stegouros elengassen lived in Gondwana).

(Not the Stegouros elengassen)

Mr. Vargas detailed the Stegouros elengassen in greater detail, noting that it had a “rather large head with a narrow, curved beak, which is not common for ankylosaurs.” “It has slender limbs. … It doesn’t have pointed claws; it has rounded, hoof-like claws on both hands and feet.” Additionally, its pelvis was very similar to that of a Stegosaur. Their study was published in the journal Nature where it can be read in full.

A re-enactment of the Stegouros elengassen moving its tail and pictures of what it would have looked like can be viewed here.
