UFO Sightings Incredible Encounters With Extraterrestrial Space Craft! 8/16/2014
UFO Sightings Incredible Encounters With Extraterrestrial Space Craft! 8/16/2014
The recent discovery of the 3,600 year old Nebra Sky Disk in Germany which provides a clear starmap to the Pleiades star system has once againfueled many debates that the Nordics do share a common ancestor with the Pleiades aliens. Why would they have a detailed star map of the Pleiades?
How did DNA testing recently find out about Pleiades aliens and humans having a common ancestor? Find out here…
A Winnipeg-based group compiles UFO sighting data to publish annual reports of UFO activity in Canada. A new report issued by this group looks at UFO sighting reports in Canada during the past twenty-five years.
UFOlogy Research has compiled Canadian UFO reports since 1989 “in an attempt to promote the dissemination of information across the field of ufology.” On August 15, 2014, to celebrate the group’s twenty-fifth anniversary, UFOlogy Research released a special edition of The Canadian UFO Survey that looks at the group’s complete database of sightings, which includes more than 14,600 sighting reports.
CTV News explains that “The study shows a growing number of unexplained sightings over the years, with the majority in British Columbia and Ontario.”

According to the study’s data, thirteen percent of the UFO sightings reported during the past twenty-five years were left unexplained.

The report includes some of the more remarkable UFO sightings from the past twenty-five years. Here is one example:
December 28, 1991 5:40 pm London, Ontario The pilot of a commercial airliner at 33,000 feet was surprised when the Airborne Avoidance Collision radar detected three objects directly ahead of his plane. The objects moved to beside the aircraft at a range of six miles, then followed the airliner. The objects then flew away. Toronto ATC reported the objects on radar as well, though nothing visual was ever seen.
UFOlogy Research director Chris Rutkowski believes, “This is simply a phenomenon that’s real, that people continue to report . . . And I believe that science should take a better look at what’s going on because the (data) suggests the phenomenon isn’t going away.”
Every conceivable niche upon planet Earth has been populated by life forms — on land, in freshwater and the seas, beneath layers of rock far below the earth’s surface, even buried within the formless ooze on the ocean beds and encircling their scorching water-spewing hydro-thermal vents.
Yet, inexplicably, there is one lone but vast ecological niche that has remained totally untouched by such animate activity — the rarefied atmospheric layers above and encompassing our world. True, insects, bacteria, birds, bats, and various other living entities spend varying extents of time in the sky, but there is no known life form that has evolved to live exclusively here, never venturing ground-ward except to die. There are no sky beasts, or cloud creatures — or are there?
In November 1975, a group of six tree-trimmers were driving home from work in a truck in the Sitgreave-Apache National Forest in Arizona, USA. The driver stopped the truck when he noticed that a flying saucer was hovering about fifteen feet above some nearby trees. Travis Walton approached the craft on foot, despite the objections of his workmates. He was then knocked to the ground by a blue and white light. When the men in the truck saw this, they were terrified and sped off down the road leaving him for dead. Once they had calmed down, they returned to that spot and couldn't find any sign of Travis or the flying saucer. Five days later, Travis was returned to earth wondering what had happened to him for the past few days:
On November 5, 1975, six young woodcutters, along with their employer, were working in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest, engaged in a tree-thinning contract for the U. S. Forest Service. The forest is located in east central Arizona, and the work area is fifteen miles from Heber.
The story begins at approximately 6:10 P.M., when the men were heading home in a seven-man crew-cab truck. Traveling along a bull-dozed trail, one of the men sighted a gold-colored glow through the thickets. As they rounded a right-hand turn, they saw the source of the glow - a structural object hovering approximately fifteen feet above a clearing and a scant ninety feet or so from the viewers.
Travis Walton, twenty-two, was sitting on the right- hand passenger side of the front seat. When he saw the object, he called to Mike Rogers, the driver and boss of the crew, to stop. Hardly waiting for the truck to come to a complete halt, Walton jumped out and, at a fast walk, approached a woodpile (stacked by the thinners) to get a closer look. As his fellow employees called for him to be careful and come back, he stood and looked at the object, which was at a 60-degree elevation from his position. It had the shape of two "pie pans" or shallow bowls placed rim to rim. A "beeping" sound was heard by all.
Walton stepped back a couple of paces, intending to vacate the vicinity of the craft when his friends were startled to see a blue-green beam shoot out from the bottom of the craft, striking Walton in the upper area of his body, lifting him from the ground with his arms out stretched, and flinging him back to the ground.
Thinking he and the others were in danger, Rogers restarted the truck and left the area. A quarter of a mile away, he stopped and the six men looked back. They saw a light rise from the ground and streak into the north east, originating in the area where they had left Travis. Thinking it was the object, Rogers turned the truck around and drove back to the clearing.
For fifteen minutes the men searched for Walton, covering the near area and calling, but to no avail. Rogers then decided to drive to Heber, the nearest town, and report Walton's disappearance to the sheriff. On the way, they debated what they should tell, doubting that the truth would be believed, but, unable to come up with an acceptable explanation, they told what they had experienced.
On November 10, the six men were given polygraph tests which established that they had not harmed Walton (it had been implied that they had done away with Travis and hidden his remains, despite the fact that Rogers was his best friend of many years standing) and that they had, actually, seen a UFO.
On the night of November 10, at approximately midnight, a call came in to the Grant Neff residence (Mrs. Neff was Travis' sister and at the time the only Walton in Snowflake, Arizona, with a telephone). It was Travis, sounding confused and disoriented, saying he was at a phone booth in Heber and in terrible pain. Neff went to Mrs. Kellett's (Travis' mother) home, picked up Travis' brother Duane, who had come up from Phoenix when notified of his brother's disappearance, and drove at breakneck speed to Heber, where they found Travis slumped in a phone booth. He had a five-day growth of beard and appeared thin but was otherwise apparently all right.
Within hours, Duane drove Travis to his home in Phoenix, intent on keeping him away from the horde of reporters, which had plagued the Walton family during Travis' disappearance, and to obtain medical treatment.
For a short time, Duane Walton was frustrated by the representative of a local UFO group, who sent him to a pseudomedical hypnotist, but he was eventually contacted by the AERIAL PHENOMENA RESEARCH ORGANIZATION (APRO), which called in a team of medical experts.
Ultimately, Walton was given the Minnesota Multi Phase Personality Inventory (MMPI), Rorschach (commonly called Inkblot) Polygraph and Psychological Stress Evaluator tests, all of which established that he had told the truth as he knew it. All of these tests were conducted and interpreted by experts.
Unfortunately, Walton only recalls an hour or two of his five-day absence. He claims to have awoke on a table in a room which he first assumed was a hospital. The ceiling seemed low, there was an oval-shaped metallic-colored apparatus on his chest (his denim jacket and shirt were pulled up), and he was in considerable pain. The "air" in the room seemed oppressive, i.e., warm and damp. It took a few minutes to get his wits about him, and when he became fully aware of his surroundings, he realized he was in no ordinary hospital. Around the "table" on which he reclined were three strange creatures-strange, because they were less than five feet tall, very pale, with large, domed heads, large eyes, small nose, mouth, and ears, and their bodies, encased in tannish orange, seamless jumpsuits, and were very thin.
Upon seeing them, Walton struggled to his feet, and when they approached him with their fingernail-less hands outstretched, he grabbed a rodlike object from an adjacent table and prepared to defend himself. After flailing about with the instrument for a moment or two, Walton was surprised to see the trio file out of the door and turn to the right.
After the creatures left, Walton also exited the room, turning left. Following a curved corridor, looking for a way out, he found a circular room with a chair (which was too small for him but nevertheless he sat in it) with a "screen" on each arm. He touched a lever and the "stars" on the "ceiling" above seemed to move, so he moved the lever back to its original position and decided against further experimentation.
Shortly, a "man," approximately six feet tall, with brown hair and strange golden-brown eyes, appeared at the door which Travis had entered. He beckoned to Travis, and Travis went to him, babbling question after question, none of which were answered. The "man" said nothing, took Travis by the arm, led him out into the corridor or hall, to the right, then stopped, whereupon a section of the wall opened. He had not touched anything. They walked into a small room, the door behind them closed, and seconds later a door opened in front of them. They then went down an incline (apparently out of the enclosure Walton had been in) where Walton found him self in a large enclosure resembling a quarter of a cylinder. There were three or four oval-shaped metallic objects parked there (the same apparent metallic substance as everything else he had seen). He was led by the "man" (who was clad in a blue "jumpsuit" with a clear "helmet") through the enclosure, to another door into a room where there were three other human-appearing individuals-two men and a woman. They resembled the first, except that, although they wore the same clothing, they were without helmets.
They gestured to him to get upon a table. He resisted, but they eventually succeeded in their efforts and Travis reclined; an apparatus resembling an oxygen mask with a black ball attached was placed over his face and he lost consciousness.
Travis awoke about midnight about a quarter mile west of Heber, Arizona. He was lying on his stomach and raised up to watch the curved, metallic hull of an aircraft taking off straight up, reflecting the yellow stripe of the dividing line of the highway below.
What did Travis Walton see? What did he experience? Tests indicate that he has related his experience truthfully. His book The Walton Experience (1978) will tend to illuminate the reader and enable him to make his own judgment. - Coral Lorenzen - APRO
The following report on the final polygraph examination of Travis Walton was actually sponsored by a skeptic, Jerry Black. The test was performed with the latest state of the art equipment, by Cy Gilson, the most highly respected polygraph expert:
4 February 1993
Mr. Jerry Black (Address) Blanchester, Ohio
Dear Mr. Black,
On February 4, 1993, a polygraph examination was administered to Mr. Travis Walton. The purpose of this examination was to determine whether or not Mr. Walton was being truthful in his statement about seeing a UFO and being abducted by the UFO plus other facts surrounding the abduction.
During the pretest interview, Mr. Walton said he had worked for Mike Rogers intermittently for about six years on a seasonal basis. He never socialized with any of the crew.
On November 5, 1975, they had worked a little later than usual trying to meet the contract commitment. By the time they were driving back to town, the sun had gone down but there was some light, like twilight.
As they were driving, he could see a glimmer of light in the trees ahead. At first he thought it may be a downed airplane. The light was unusual. As they neared a clearing he saw the object he called a UFO. This object will be referred to as a UFO throughout this report.
As the truck came to a stop, Mr. Walton got out. Believing it may take off, he walked briskly towards the UFO but slowed his pace before reaching it. He described it as being round and hovering about 20 feet above the ground. He did not go underneath it but stood there looking up at it. He said the UFO started to wobble slightly and make a noise. Mr. Walton said the noise was like a low rumble that developed into a higher pitch that seemed to increase in frequency. At this point he became afraid and decided to go back to the truck. He recalls being hit with an electrifying type of shock that stunned him, leaving him unconscious.
He recalls he slowly regained consciousness. He found himself in a small room that was damp or humid. He had pain throughout his body but mostly in his chest and head. He then saw three creatures he described as being about four feet tall with large, dark eyes. He was lying on some type of table. As these creatures approached him he got off the table. There was some type of shelf near the wal1 where he found a straight pipelike object lying on it. He describes it as being round like a piece of pipe but lightweight. He cannot recall if it was solid or hollow. He picked it up and started to lash out at the creatures to keep them at bay. The creatures left the room by an open doorway, turning right.
Mr. Walton walked to that doorway, looked down a hall and he went left. He walked into another room, trying to find an exit from this enclosure. He did not know if he was in a spaceship or a building. A humanlike creature came into the room, took him by the arm, leading him to another very large room where several more humanlike creatures were. By this time most of the pain was gone. He was forced down on a table and had a mask, similar to an oxygen mask, put on his face. He does not remember anything else until he awoke next to the road, just outside Heber. As he regained consciousness, he looked up, seeing the UFO or one similar to the original one, hovering overhead. As he looked up at it, the UFO sped off into the sky.
Mr. Walton said his story is true. He said accusations made about him are lies. He had not been on any drugs of any kind. He was not hiding out somewhere on the Gibson ranch. He urinated in a jar and this sample was given to Dr. Kandell later that same day. Mr. Walton denies he conspired with Mr. Rogers to perpetrate a hoax to help him get out of the Turkey Springs contract with the Forestry Service.
Two series of questions were asked to cover all the areas we believe were important.
The relevant questions asked and the answers given are as follows:
Series #1:
Question #R1:
On November 5, 1975, in the forest area called Turkey Springs, did you see a large glowing object hovering in the air?
Answer: YES
Question #R2:
While you were standing near that UFOlike object, did you believe you were struck by an energy source emitted from that large object?
Answer: YES
Question #R3:
After regaining consciousness in a small, humid room, did you see nonhuman creatures with large dark eyes?
Answer: YES
Question #R4:
Did you conspire with your brother Duane or anyone else or act alone to stage a hoax about your UFO abduction?
Answer: NO
Series #2:
Question #R1:
Between November 1 and 11, 1975, did you use any drugs, either legal or illegal?
Answer: NO
Question #R2:
Between November 5 and 10, 1975, were you hiding anywhere on the Gibson ranch?
Answer: NO
Question #R3:
Was the urine sample given to Dr. Kandell on November 11, 1975, your first voided specimen following your UFO experience?
Answer: YES
Question #R4:
Was this UFO incident a conspiracy to help Mike Rogers get out of his Turkey Springs contract?
Mr. Walton's physiological responses were monitored during the presentation of these questions by means of a Scientific Assessment Technology's Computer, Model CAPS 700. The following responses were recorded on this instrument's strip chart: relative blood pressure; skin conductance; thoracic and abdominal respiration. Data from three presentations of these questions were respiration. Data obtained for each series, and were subject to numerical scoring and computerbased analysis.
The numerical score of Series #1 was +34. The numerical score of Series #2 was +26. In the system of numerical scoring developed and validated at the University of Utah, total numerical scoring of +6 or more is considered indications of truthfulness.
The computerbased analysis returned a posterior probability of truthfulness of .964 in the first series, and a .961 in the second series. These indicating that charts like these produced in each series, by Mr. Walton, are produced by truthful examinees 96% of the time.
Based on the numerical score of the polygraph charts and the computer based analysis, it is the opinion of this examiner that Mr. Walton was being truthful when he answered these relevant questions.
Thank you, Jerry Black! These examinations clear the air with a thoroughness, an utter finality, which can't be refuted. Cy Gilson used a widely practiced, extremely accurate, stateoftheart method developed and perfected at the University of Utah. This involves a computerized monitoring and analysis of the tracings along with a pointscoring system of the charts applied by the examiner.
In summary: The computer put all three of us near the top of the range designated as conclusively truthful (almost no one ever achieves the theoretical maximum of 1.00), with me at .964 and .961, Mike at .990, and Allen at .993. On the numerical score I was first with +34 and +26 points, Mike had +31 points and Allen had +22 points. - Travis Walton
I looked at the vague but reassuring forms of the doctors around me. Abruptly my vision cleared. The sudden horror of what I saw rocked me as I realized I was definitely not in a hospital. I was looking square into the face of a horrible creature...with huge, luminous brown eyes the size of quarters! I looked frantically around me. There were three of them! Hysteria overcame me instantly. — Travis Walton

UFO Focused 'Light Ray' on Russian Missile Arsenal
UFO Focused 'Light Ray' on Russian Missile Arsenal
In 1989, at a military base and suspected underground facility near the nuclear test site of Kapustin Yar, members of two army units noticed a UFO which hovered for hours over the arsenal of the base. The KGB files contained the handwritten reports of the sighting. It flew over the stores of the unit and moved in the direction of the missile arsenal. When it hovered over the arsenal, a bright ray appeared on its underside.
Very little was known about UFO investigations in Russia and the republics of the former USSR during the communist era. UFOs were officially labeled "capitalist propaganda" in the 1950s and 1960s. A few scientists such as Professor Felix Zigel and Yuri Fomin documented UFO incidents, but their results were rarely published and circulated mostly in samizdat form. Ufology began to prosper in the early 1980s when "Commissions on Anomalous Phenomena" were established under the patronage of a few academicians.
Stories of secret military UFO investigations began to spread with glasnost, increasing with the break-up of the USSR. Retired military and intelligence officers were now speaking up and offering documents. One collection, covering a 10-year period of military UFO investigations between 1978 and 1988, was sold by its former director, Colonel Boris Sokolov, to American journalist George Knapp and to ABC News. In 1991, the Committee of State Security (KGB) declassified 124 pages of documents of "Cases of Observations of Anomalous Occurrences in the Territory of the USSR, 1982-1990," covering a total of 17 regions.
One of the most interesting cases in the KGB file is a multiple-witness CE-I (Close Encounter of the First Kind) at an army missile base in the district of Kapustin Yar, Astrakhan Region, on the night of July 28-29, 1989. The file is surely incomplete, but still offers an interesting glimpse into the maneuverability of UFOs. The dossier consists of the depositions of seven military witnesses (two junior officers, a corporal and four privates) plus illustrations of the object by the observers, and a brief case summary by an unnamed KGB officer. (Neither the author nor the department are identified, but the document is at the beginning of the KGB file on the Kapustin Yar incident). It states in part:
"Military personnel of the signal center observed UFOs in the period from 22:12 hrs. to 23:55 hrs. on 28 July 1989. According to the witnesses' reports, they observed three objects simultaneously, at a distance of 3-5 km. [2-3 mi.]."
A nearby base reported the UFO from 23.30 hrs. on July 28 until 1.30 hrs. on July 29. The report continues:
"After questioning the witnesses, it was determined that the reported characteristics of the observed UFOs are: disc 4-5 m. [13-17 ft.] diameter, with a half-sphere on top, which is lit brightly. It moved sometimes abruptly, but noiselessly, at times coming down and hovering over ground at an altitude of 20-60 m. [65-200 ft.]. The command of [censored] called for a fighter... but it was not able to see it in detail, because the UFO did not let the aircraft come near it, evading it. Atmospheric conditions were suitable for visual observations."
The KGB file on the case is obviously incomplete, since there is no data on the jet scramble mission or whether ground or airborne radar detection was also reported. Nevertheless, the hand written descriptions by the seven witnesses from the signal center do provide interesting reading about the flight behavior exhibited by the UFOs. The most detailed communication was submitted by the Officer-on-Duty, Ensign Valery N. Voloshin. A Captain from the telegraph center informed him at 23:20 hrs. that "an unidentified flying object, which he called a flying saucer, was hovering over the military unit for over an hour." After confirming the sighting with the operation signal officer on duty, Ensign Voloshin and Private Tishchayev climbed the first part of an antenna tower. According to his deposition:
"One could clearly see a powerful blinking signal which resembled a camera flash in the night sky. The object flew over the unit's logistics yard and moved in the direction of the rocket weapons depot, 300 meters [1,000 ft.] away. It hovered over the depot at a height of 20 meters [65 ft.]. The UFO's hull shone with a dim green light which looked like phosphorous. It was a disc, 4 or 5 m. [13-17 ft.] in diameter, with a semispherical top.
"While the object was hovering over the depot, a bright beam appeared from the bottom of the disc, where the flash had been before, and made two or three circles, lighting the corner of one of the buildings... The movement of the beam lasted for several seconds, then the beam disappeared and the object, still flashing, moved in the direction of the railway station. After that, I observed the object hovering over the logistics yard, railway station and cement factory. Then it returned to the rocket weapons depot, and hovered over it at an altitude of 60-70 m. [200-240 ft.]. The object was observed from that time on, by the first guard-shift and its commander. At 1:30 hrs., the object flew in the direction of the city of Akhtubinsk and disappeared from sight. The flashes on the object were not periodical, I observed all this for exactly two hours: from 23:30 to 1:30."
Private Tishcahayev essentially confirmed Ensign Voloshin's testimony. The guard-shift of Corporal Levin and Privates Bashev, Kulik and Litvinov basically tell the same story. They were all alerted by 1st Lt. Klimenko and they all saw up to three UFOs performing fantastic acrobatics in the sky, such as:
"Suddenly, it flew in our direction. It approached fast and increased in size. It then like divided itself in three shining points and took the shape of a triangle. Then it changed course and went on flying in the same sector."
"After veering, it began to approach us and its speed could be felt physically. (It swelled in front of our eyes). Its flight was strange: no aircraft could fly in this manner. It could instantly stop in the air (and there was an impression that it wobbled slightly up and down); it could float (exactly that: float, because the word 'fly' would not be adequate, it was as if the air was holding it, preventing it from falling). At all times that I observed it, it was blinking, blinking without any order and constantly changing colors (red, blue, green, yellow). The point itself was not blinking but something above it."
"Here is what I observed: there was a flying object, resembling an egg, but flatter. It shone brightly alternating green and red lights. This object gathered a great speed. It accelerated abruptly and also stopped abruptly, all the while doing large jumps up or down. Then appeared a second and then a third object. One object rose to low altitude and stopped. It stayed there in one place and was gone. Later a second object disappeared, and only one stayed. It moved constantly along the horizon. At times, it seemed it landed on the ground, then it rose again and moved."
All the testimonies coincided with the appearance of a jet fighter attempting to intercept the UFOs. The fighter made a first pass above the object apparently without seeing it. Then, according to Lt. Klimenko's deposition, "the airplane, which could be identified by its noise, approached the object, but the object disengaged so fast, that it seemed the plane stayed in one place."
It is difficult to make a final evaluation of the Kapustin Yar CE-I, since no information about the scramble mission and possible radar tracking has been released by the KGB. But the detailed testimony of seven military witnesses, who were familiar with rocket launches and various aircraft because of their post (Kapustin Yar is somewhat equivalent to the White Sands Proving Grounds in New Mexico), appears to confirm the unusual flight characteristics and extraordinary maneuverability displayed by UFOs in many instances. Moreover, as in the SAC flap of 1975 and the Bentwaters affair in England in 1980, the UFOs seemed capable of "demonstrating a clear intent in the weapons storage area," as described in a 1975 declassified teletype concerning Loring AFB in Maine.
One of the official milestones of Soviet/Russian ufology occurred less than a year later, as a result of a radar-visual and jet scramble incident on the Pereslavl-Zalesskiy region, east of Moscow, on the night of March 21, 1990. A statement issued by Colonel-General of Aviation Igor Maltsev, Chief of the Main Staff of the Air Defense Forces, was published in the newspaper Rabochaya Tribuna. Unit commanders compiled "more than 100 visual observations" and passed them on to Gen. Maltsev, who stated:
"I am not a specialist on UFOs and therefore I can only correlate the data and express my own supposition. According to the evidence of these eyewitnesses, the UFO is a disc with a diameter from 100 to 200 meters [320 to 650 feet]. Two pulsating lights were positioned on its sides... Moreover, the object rotated around its axis and performed an 'S-turn' flight both in the horizontal and vertical planes. Next, the UFO hovered over the ground and then flew with a speed exceeding that of the modern jet fighter by 2 or 3 times... The objects flew at altitudes ranging from 100 to 7,000 m. [300 to 24,000 ft.]. The movement of the UFOs was not accompanied by sound of any kind, and was distinguished by its startling maneuverability. It seemed the UFOs were completely devoid of inertia. In other words, they had somehow 'come to terms' with gravity. At the present time, terrestrial machines could hardly have any such capabilities." - Don Berliner, UFO Briefing Document
"I climbed up to the watchtower and watched the object at a height of 18 feet. I could clearly make out a glaring blinking signal, bright as a camera flash. The object flew over the stores of the unit and moved in the direction of the missile arsenal, about 1,000 feet away. It floated at a height of only 60 feet above the depot. The UFO glowed in a kind of phosphorescent green. It was a disc 12 to 15 feet in diameter with a semi-spherical dome on it."
"While the object was hovering above the arsenal, a bright ray appeared on its underside where the light had been flashing before, and drew 2 or 3 circles. Then the object moved towards the railway station, still flashing. Soon, however, it came back to the missile depot and hovered at a height of 180-200 feet above it. Two hours after the start of the sighting, the object flew in the direction of the town Akhtubinsk and disappeared out of our sight,"
"Near the object in the sky I saw a fireball which arose from the earth and approached it. When the UFO moved towards me, I could physically feel its approach. Then it shot off into the sky.

A pack of starving wolves surrounded a small farming community in China this week and attacked the six people living there, injuring two of them seriously.
The attack happened shortly after midnight and has shocked many as it was previously thought that wolves steered clear of humans. After the people living on the farm managed to flee, the wolves attacked farm animals killing several.
For a pack to attack a residential building and six people is reportedly unheard of at least in Altay village in north-western China's Xinjiang region where two people were hospitalised. Injuries included a bitten off ear and bites and scratches to the face, neck and chest.
The animals have apparently been driven mad by hunger caused by the worst drought in decades in the region where the average rainfall was down by a third affecting nearly a million hectares of crops. Hundreds of thousands of farm animals have also been left without water and the economic damage is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions.
The drought has brought near disaster to the Ili River valley that has seen no rainfall in what is the worst drought in 60 years. Many of the animals that the wolves might have otherwise fed on have died from lack of food and the animals have reportedly been sent mad with hunger. - Austrian Times
I made a throwaway account to post this because i just dont feel safe doing so through my original account. This predicament i've gotten myself into started about two weeks ago, while I was at work.
I work at a small convenience store, the only one in my town. My town is small and boring, with a population of around 55,000. The neighboring city, has a population double that, and is more densely populated, with a city center and multiple apartment complexes. I was just about to end my shift when a girl walks in. I automatically recognized her as an older sister of a friend of mine, Lyle. For the sake of my friend and his family, lets just say her name is Amanda. I'll explain why her name's changed later, but i need to explain everything in order for it to make sense.
I hadn't seen Amanda in 2 years. When I went over to Lyle's, she'd be in her room writing or on the back patio drawing, or she'd be watching TV. One day, I noticed she had a slightly scary looking dude over, but I have trouble remembering what he looked like. The next time I saw her she looked terribly ill, but I didn't mention it to Lyle. I didn't see much of her after that.
Amanda was skinnier than when I'd first seen her, her ripped, dirtied jeans hanging loosely on her hips. She was wearing a thin pullover, which went well with the ripped jeans in the notion that it was also ripped and dirtied. I would have questioned the heavy clothing in summer, but it was raining, so i brushed it off. Her hair looked unwashed, greasy. She had dark circles under her eyes and a noticable shake, like she was constantly chilly. She didn't recognize me, which didn't surprise me as we'd talked, at the most, twice, both simple greetings as I entered Lyle's place.
She came up to the counter, arms folded. The store was around 65, not cold for me but maybe for her. She pulled a lighter from the tray we have on the counter and placed it towards me. "One dollar, please." She dug around in her pockets, the sound of coins shaking seeming to bring her forward to reality a bit. She just dropped a bunch of dimes and two quarters on the counter and left. At this point I was a tad bit weirded out, but didn't say anything and tried my best to forget the moment. A few minutes later, my shift was over and I left.
As I said goodbye to Charley, the guy who came relieve me, I walked outside. We have benches outside the store, and guess who had sat there for a few minutes? Amanda, smoking a cigarette. I thought it was strange, as she'd never came off as the type to smoke, but she had graduated two years ago anyways, so who cares, its her decision. As I lit my own cigarette, a car pulled up into the lot. She got up and got to the car, leaning against the door as the window rolled down. It was dark in the car but i could hear a guy's voice, deep but soothing, telling her something. I missed most of the conversation, but I did hear the word "hit". I guess Amanda had fallen into drug use. I shrugged it off and walked off as she hopped in the car.
I had went home and was playing some TF2, with Lyle and a few friends on a skype chat, when Lyle abruptly left. No "goodbye", no "my mom's calling me", no nothing. He does that though. I left soon after as the friends were Lyle's and I had nothing to talk about. I went on reddit, went to tumblr, then dozed off. I remember the moom shining through my window. The clouds had dissipated, the rain gone. Nice and quiet.
I woke up and I went along with my day, went to work, went home, played video games, and went to sleep, I called, and Lyle sounded fucking awful. Through deep breaths and short sobs, I finally got him to explain what had him so down. He was vague, and only said he was at the police station with his mom and younger brother. I didn't get to ask why, because I got another call. I told him I had to go, and he immediatly hung up.
I answered the call, and it was a detective. I needed to come down to the station for questioning. They had already sent a squad car to my house, which I thought was a tad bit too much, but now I understand why.
When we arrived, the officer who had picked me up made it clear to me I wasn't in trouble, and he escorted me down to a room for questioning. This is where I explain why I'm not giving out Amanda's real name, and I'm gonna keep this part short.
The officer left, and after a minute a man in a white dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a black tie with manila file came in to talk to me. I was cranky now, mostly at the fact i had no idea why the fuck i was being questioned and what for, as the escort cop didn't elaborate. The detective pulled out a picture of Amanda from the manila file, and asked me if I knew her. I said yes and asked why.
"Well, Mr.xxxxx, you were the last one to see her alive."
My throat tied up.
"We found her body near a torched car on a trail near the (neighboring city) quarries."
My heart dropped.
"We have security footage from your place of work that shows you leaving at the same time as when she enters the car we had found torched. Now, my question for you is, did you see who was driving the car?"
My stomach was in knots.
I stammered out that it was dark inside the car, but that it was a man driving. The detective's eyes narrowed.
"Listen, we're looking for a suspected killer, and anything at all you could have seen would put us in the right direction to finding the driver."
I felt awful. I couldn't remember anything. I told the detective about hearing "hit" and that Amanda hadn't looked well when she came into the store. The detective let me go, but he didn't seem happy. I walked past Lyle's family on the way out. I didn't make eye contact. Lyle's mom was crying and Lyle held his brother. They didn't notice me. I didn't want them to.
This is, sadly, only the tip of the iceberg I fear. Yesterday, I awoke in a cold sweat around 4 to the sharpest crack of thunder I had ever heard. I went into the bathroom to take a piss when I glanced at the mirror.
Someone had written in sharp, black ink:
"Wrong place, wrong time"
I lost focus and control of my legs. I awoke to more thunder, around 15 minutes later. Why I passed out for that long, I don't know. I don't know what any of this means, other that the fact that someone came into my house. I have a terrible feeling this is connected to Amanda, but I don't want to go there.
UPDATE: Ok, very funny, but whoever did something to my account and posted these two comments Or he lives near by and Or a demon who loves a game and needs a friend I want you to stop. This isn't a joke. A girl is dead. Stop.
A huge fast-moving space rock has the potential to bring about the apocalypse in the year 2880.
Despite it still being several centuries out, scientists have been attempting to learn as much as possible about asteroid 1950 DA which, with a diameter of 3,280 feet and a speed of 37,900 miles per hour, would cause untold devastation were it to actually hit us.
With the chance of a collision estimated to be around 1 in 4000, the highest of any known asteroid, the force of the impact would be the equivalent of 44,800 megatons of TNT exploding all at once.
"Following the February 2013 asteroid impact in Chelyabinsk, Russia, there is renewed interest in figuring out how to deal with the potential hazard of an asteroid impact," said Dr. Ben Rozitis.
The key to stopping asteroid 1950 DA could lie in its remarkably fast rotational speed which by all rights should have torn it apart by now. Scientists believe that the space rock is being held together by interparticle cohesive forces which means that even a small impact on its surface may be enough to break it apart while it is still far out in space.
"Understanding what holds these asteroids together can inform strategies to guard against future impacts," said Dr. Rozitis. Read more at NY Post
The shamanic journey is the art of using rhythm and intention to enter an altered state of consciousness in order to connect with the spiritual dimension of reality.
I have begun on this path in order to use universal healing energy to benefit myself and others.
It's a compelling account with the `picture proof' IMO:
In Mt Cheaha State park, at the end of the rock garden Pulpit Rock trail, looking up the mountain slope at the Restaurant, I was taking pics of the view, when I saw two fuzzy looking discs, flitting around in the sky over the Restaurant. Stunned, I watched them for about 30 seconds before snapping the pic. Both objects streaked away to the north at incredible velocity, just after I snapped the pic. The objects made no noise, and seemed to be interacting with each other as well as searching for something in the area, by the pattern like way, that they flew. Both objects were fuzzy looking. grey in color, but also seemed to glint sunlight off of their surfaces at certain angles. The objects interacted with one another by one following the other in a semi grid pattern. This pattern flight was at unbelievable speed, making right angle turns, stopping and starting almost faster then my eyes could keep up. I was amazed and stunned to actually be witnessing such a thing. Both of the objects shot away to the north from a hover, faster than I can describe, and were gone in an instant
David Armstrong claims his aunt used to work for a Top Secret UFO records library at McClellan Air Force Base. In his twenties, Armstrong went to visit her, and knowing he had an interest in the subject, Armstrong says his aunt let him take a look at the files. In this video, Armstrong recounts what he claims to have seen in those files, including images of extraterrestrial spacecraft and alien beings. . . .
UFO mania: Was Neanderthal shot by a time traveller?
UFO mania: Was Neanderthal shot by a time traveller?
ONE day in 1922, near Broken Hill, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), a skull was found. When it came to the attention of the British Museum, the curators were pleased.
It was, in fact, a Neanderthal skull, and Neanderthal bones did not exactly come ten-a-penny.
But the Broken Hill skull was special for other reasons. On the left side of the cranium was a small, perfectly round hole. At first it was assumed that it had been made by a spear, or other sharp implement, but further investigation proved that this had not been the case.
When a skull is struck by a relatively low-velocity projectile – such as an arrow, or spear – it produces what are known as radial cracks or striations; that is, minute hairline fractures running away from the place of impact.
As there were no radial fractures on the Neanderthal skull, it was unanimously concluded that the projectile must have had a far, far greater velocity than an arrow or spear. But what?
Another mystery was that the right side of the cranium had, in the words of one anthropologist, “been blown away”. Further research also proved that that the right side of the cranium had been “blown away” from the inside out.
In short, whatever had hit the Broken Hill Neanderthal on the left side of his head had passed through it with such force that it had caused the right side to explode.
Researcher Rene Noorbergen, who investigated the mystery in his excellent book Secrets Of The Lost Races, commented: “This same feature is seen in modern victims of head wounds received from shots from a high-powered rifle.”
Noorbergen’s comments were more than appropriate, for forensic experts who have studied the skull in Berlin have since concluded that, “The cranial damage to Rhodesian Man’s skull could not have been caused by anything but a bullet”.
Compounding the mystery further is the fact that the skull of an ancient aurochs (an extinct type of bison) was found in Russia by the Lena River.
It, too, had been shot in the head, thousands of years previously, but had survived for some time, as the bullet hole had calcified.
This sensational discovery came to the attention of professor Constantin Flerov, curator of Moscow’s Palaeontological Museum of the USSR, who promptly put the skull on display.
Incredible though it sounds, we are faced with quite forceful evidence that, thousands of years ago, someone discharged a bullet into the skull of one of our anthropological cousins and also nearly killed a large mammal by the same method. But how could this be?
One obvious (but very radical) solution is to conclude that, contrary to what we have always understood, ancient man may have been technologically developed to a very high degree. Did a small but advanced civilisation develop the concept of ballistics long before the Chinese?
The problem with this idea is that it is too much of a coincidence. Could two separate societies, separated by thousands of years and a vast cultural gulf, have both invented weapons that just happened to fire small, cylindrical projectiles at high speed?
One colleague suggested to me that the only alternative is the possibility that someone from the future, carrying a firearm, travelled back into the past and engaged in some sort of trans-temporal hunting expedition.
This takes us perilously close to the realms of science fantasy, of course, but the fact is that the hole in the aurochs’ skull got there somehow.
Like it or not, the fact is that someone or something seemed to be using high-velocity bullets thousands of years ago. We don’t know who, we don’t know why and we don’t know how – but it happened.

UFO mania: Grand Canyon Underground Citadel - Evidence of Giants and Underground Cities in America.
UFO mania: Grand Canyon Underground Citadel - Evidence of Giants and Underground Cities in America
The most famous report - about giants and underground cities - appeared in the April 5, 1909 edition of The Arizona Gazette, entitled “Explorations in Grand Canyon.” Explorer G.E. Kinkaid discovered a huge underground “citadel” while rafting on the Colorado River.
Exploring a tunnel that stretched “nearly a mile underground,” Kinkaid found this citadel, which was filled with tablets carved with some type of hieroglyphics, and home to a stone statue he described as resembling Buddha.
Copper weapons lined the walls, but the most intriguing aspect of this ancient dwelling/worship place/tomb, were the mummies, all wrapped in a dark fabric.
The mummies were supposedly more than nine-feet-tall. To feed the fire of conspiracy, and to keep anyone from finding the giants of the citadel themselves, the United States government allegedly closed that area of the canyon from public view.
But this well-known story of American giants isn’t alone
The New York Times reported a nine-foot-tall skeleton of a man discovered in a mound near Maple Creek, Wisconsin, in December 1897. The Times also carried the story “Strange Skeletons Found” near Lake Delevan, Wisconsin, in its May 4, 1912 issue. The skulls of giant skeletons excavated from a mound had “a minute resemblance to the head of the monkey. ” But an April 9, 1885 story in The New York Times entitled: “Missouri’s buried city: A strange discovery in a coalmine near Moberly,” revealed a find that predated the supposed citadel in the Grand Canyon by 24 years. Moberly, the largest city in Randolph County, Missouri, had a population of 6,108 in the 1880s. Coal miners, sinking a shaft 360 feet deep, broke into a cavern revealing “a wonderful buried city,” the article claimed. Lava arches stretched across the roof of the cavern, looming over the streets of an ancient city “which are regularly laid out and enclosed by walls of stone, which is cut and dressed in a fairly good, although rude style of masonry.
” Workers, along with Moberly city recorder David Coates and Moberly city marshal George Keating, inspected the site and found a 30-by-100-feet hall in the cavern filled with stone benches and hand tools. “Further search disclosed statues and images made of a composition closely resembling bronze, lacking luster,” the article read. Explorers discovered a stone fountain in a wide court, still pouring “perfectly pure water” into its basin. But it was what lay beside the fountain that interested the people exploring the site. “Lying beside the foundation (of the fountain) were portions of the skeleton of a human being,” according to the article. “The bones of the leg measured, the femur four and one-half feet, the tibia four feet and three inches, showing that when alive the figure was three times the size of an ordinary man, and possessed of a wonderful muscular power and quickness. ” Its skull, the story reported, was shattered; bronze tools, granite hammers, metallic saws and flint knives were scattered all around. “They are not so highly polished, nor so accurately made as those now finished by our best mechanics, but they show skill and an evidence of an advanced civilization that are very wonderful,” according to the article.
Explorers spent twelve hours in the buried city and resurfaced only after the oil in their lamps burned low. “No end to the wonders of the discovery was reached,” the article stated. “A further extended search will be made in a day or two.”
No record of the extended search could be found
Dr. Tom Spencer, a professor in the department of History, Humanities, Philosophy and Political Science at Northwest Missouri State University, said that’s because after printing the story, the newspapers tried to forget it. “A lot of the time I think these stories were written based entirely off hearsay and little or no direct on-site reporting,” he said. “As the story grew, the details got more and more outrageous.”
He equates it to a childhood game where children sit in a circle and one child whispers a story into another’s ear and by the time the story completes the circle, it was completely different. “If you recall, sometimes the ‘finished story’ bore little resemblance to the original story,” he said. “My guess is one element of this story is factual – like the strange shaft formation or a long femur was found – and it became more and more embellished as it went around the journalistic circle at the time.”
So what happened to the fabulous buried city under Moberly, Mo.? “There were stories like this periodically at the time and they usually disappear quietly because someone goes to investigate and there’s nothing to it,” Spencer said. “In order to avoid the embarrassment the newspapers just don’t say anything else about it.”
However, Moberly resident John W. wants to find out for certain. “Myself and several friends have researched the article archived at The New York Times,” John said. “The article discusses coal miners finding a Crystal City with several advanced features as well as the bones of what can only be called a giant.”
John and his group plan to investigate the claim of an underground city. “We have found the mine. Our hopes are to take a field trip and find the underground city if we can access the mine,” he said. “We have driven by and the site exists. You can still see remnants of the old access road through the field. It would appear this mine has not been in use since the time period of the news article.”
Moberly calls itself “The Magic City.” Hopefully John and his crew can discover just how magic it is.

Twee verloren Mayasteden gevonden in jungle Mexico
Twee verloren Mayasteden gevonden in jungle Mexico
Archeologen hebben in de jungle van Mexico een bijzondere vondst gedaan. Ze troffen twee oude Mayasteden aan, bestaande uit ruïnes van tempelpiramides, paleizen, een balveld, altaars, een poort in de vorm van de bek van een monster en andere stenen monumenten.
Eén van de Mayasteden is decennia geleden ontdekt, maar men is er nooit in geslaagd om de Mayastad te lokaliseren. De andere stad is geheel onbekend en werpt een nieuw licht op de oude Mayabeschaving.
Expeditieleider Ivan Sprajc legde uit dat het oerwoud van Yucatán in de Mexicaanse staat Campeche eerst is bestudeerd aan de hand van luchtfoto’s. Te midden van de dichte vegetatie werden enkele onregelmatigheden aangetroffen. Een team werd erop uitgestuurd om onderzoek te doen.
Tot hun verbazing zagen de archeologen een complete stad. In de jaren zeventig stuitte de Amerikaanse archeoloog Eric Von Euw op de eerste stad. Hij maakte vele tekeningen van de Maya-ruïnes. Tot op heden was niemand in staat om de verloren stad, Lagunita genaamd, terug te vinden.
Eén van de meest indrukwekkende bouwwerken in de Mayastad is een enorme poort in de vorm van de bek van een monster, die de Mayagod van de vruchtbaarheid voorstelt. “Deze poorten symboliseren de ingang van een grot en meer in het algemeen van de onderwereld, een mythologische plaats die geassocieerd wordt met maïs en voorouders,” zei Sprajc.
Gegraveerde steen in Lagunita (Ivan Sprajc)
Het team van Sprajc trof verder een 20 meter hoge tempelpiramide en de ruïnes van een paleizencomplex aan. Op verschillende altaars zijn inscripties gevonden. In de hiërogliefen wordt volgens epigraaf Octavio Esparza Olguin van de Nationale Autonome Universiteit van Mexico gesproken over de datum 29 november 711 en een ‘heerser van 4 k’atuns’ (een k’atun is een periode van 20 jaar). Het is niet duidelijk om welke heerser het precies gaat.
De tweede Mayastad is Tamchen gedoopt en bevat een templepiramide, altaar, een grote acropolis omgeven door drie tempels en meer dan 30 chultans, ondergrondse kamers die werden gebruikt voor het verzamelen van regenwater. Sommige bouwwerken in Tamchen dateren uit de late pre-klassieke periode (300 voor Christus – 250 na Christus).
Beide steden roepen vragen op over de diversiteit van de Mayacultuur en de rol van dit grotendeels onverkende gebied in de Mayageschiedenis, aldus Sprajc.
Een vlek op een afbeelding van Google Moon zorgt voor wilde speculaties onder internetters over een ‘man’ op de maan. De donkere gedaante heeft volgens sommigen veel weg van een mensachtig figuur en zijn schaduw. De Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA denkt daar anders over.
Amateur-astronoom met als gebruikersnaam wowforreeel besloot de vreemde en onverklaarbare schaduw verder te onderzoeken nadat hij een tip had gekregen van een andere YouTube-gebruiker.
Sinds de afbeelding en het bijbehorende filmpje viraal gingen, zijn er verschillende theorieën over de gedaante in omloop. Volgens diverse nieuwsbronnen lijkt de schaduw op de Kolossus van Rodos, een groot standbeeld met gespreide armen en benen.
Wade Sisler, een woordvoerder van NASA, zei dat de foto hem deed denken aan de afbeelding van de ‘man op Mars’ die in 2008 op internet circuleerde. “We zoeken [als mensen] naar patronen en neigen vooral in de richting van menselijke vormen,” zei hij.
Noah Petro, een wetenschapper die betrokken is bij de Lunar Renaissance Orbiter (LRO), zei dat de beelden van de ‘man’ op de maan afkomstig lijken te zijn van de Apollo 15 of 17, bemande missies naar de maan in respectievelijk 1971 en 1972. Op een recente foto van hetzelfde gebied zou geen figuur op het maanoppervlak te zien zijn.
Petro zei dat er geen nabijgelegen berg of rots is die een schaduw zou kunnen werpen. “Ik zou zegen dat het iets van stof, een oogwimper of een kras op het negatief moet zijn. Vergeet niet dat dit voor het digitale tijdperk was. In die tijd kon er van alles gebeuren met de beelden.”
Bij wijze van primeur voor de Chinese ruimtevaart wil Peking dit jaar nog een sonde in een baan rond de Maan brengen die uiteindelijk naar de Aarde moet terugkomen, zo hebben de autoriteiten bekendgemaakt.
De sonde is reeds naar de zuidwestelijke lanceerbasis Xichang in de zuidwestelijke provincie Sichuan overgebracht.
Eén van de uitdagingen is dat het ruimtetuig de bijzonder hoge temperaturen moet kunnen overleven wanneer het de atmosfeer van onze planeet weer induikt.
De missie moet de deugdelijkheid bewijzen van vitale technologie voor de missie Chang'e-5 waarbij het volgens het officiële persbureau Xinhua de bedoeling is stalen op de Maan te nemen en die naar de Aarde te brengen.
Vorig jaar is China erin geslaagd een Maanjeep op de natuurlijke satelliet van de Aarde neer te zetten en die daar te hebben doen werken. Dat was 37 jaar nadat alleen de VS en de toenmalige Sovjetunie zachte landingen op de Maan maakten.
Het private ruimtevrachtschip Cygnus, dat een maand geleden aan het Internationaal Ruimtestation ISS was aangedokt, is vandaag losgekoppeld en begint zondag aan de terugtocht naar de Aarde. Cygnus was naar het ISS geslingerd om de zes astronauten aan boord te bevoorraden.
De capsule verliet het ruimtestation om 12.40 uur Belgische tijd, deelde het Amerikaanse ruimteagentschap Nasa op zijn website mee. Cygnus blijft wel nog tot zondagochtend nabij het ISS. Dan zal de capsule zijn motoren inschakelen om de afdaling naar de Aarde in te zetten.
De capsule was op 13 juli gelanceerd door het Amerikaanse Orbital Sciences aan boord van de raket Antares. Drie dagen later bereikte Cygnus het ISS, met meer dan 1.600 kilogram bevoorrading aan boord. Het ging dan vooral om voorverpakte voeding, maar ook aardobservatiesatellieten en materiaal voor wetenschappelijke experimenten.
Het was de tweede vlucht van het door Orbital Sciences ontwikkelde vrachtschip. In het kader van een contract van bijna 2 miljard dollar (1,5 miljard euro) zullen tot 2016 nog minstens acht andere vluchten plaatsvinden.
Wetenschappers hebben voor het eerst stofdeeltjes onderzocht die vermoedelijk van buiten ons zonnestelsel afkomstig zijn. De analyse van de zeven deeltjes toont aan dat er in het stof buiten het zonnestelsel meer zit dan tot nu is aangenomen.
Dat meldt het team van onderzoekers onder leiding van Andrew Westphal van de Universiteit van Berkeley in Californië in het natuurwetenschappelijk tijdschrift Science.
De sonde Stardust bracht de deeltjes in 2006 naar de aarde. Die moest ook stof van de komeet Wild 2 verzamelen. Om het stof op te vangen, had het onbemande ruimtevaartuig aan de bovenkant een rond rooster ter grootte van een tennisracket.
In een grot in de Amerikaanse staat Wyoming hebben wetenschappers honderden zoogdieren uit de ijstijd aangetroffen. Dat meldt The Telegraph.
Wetenschappers geloven dat de grot 25.000 jaar geleden geopend is, waardoor de dieren erin gevallen zijn. Ze vermoeden dat de overblijfselen de tand des tijds hebben doorstaan door de koele temperaturen en de duisternis in de grot.
Volgens de de Australische hoogleraar Alan Cooper, een van de onderzoekers, gaat het onder andere om de Noord-Amerikaanse leeuw en de Amerikaanse cheetah. Er werden ook verschillende kleine knaagdieren in de Natural Trap Cave ontdekt.
Eind vorige maand daalden de wetenschappers af in de ruim 25 meter diepe grot in het noorden van Wyoming. In de omgeving werden eerder ook al overblijfselen van mammoeten en beren gevonden.

Unfortunately, Walton only recalls an hour or two of his five-day absence. He claims to have awoke on a table in a room which he first assumed was a hospital. The ceiling seemed low, there was an oval-shaped metallic-colored apparatus on his chest (his denim jacket and shirt were pulled up), and he was in considerable pain. The "air" in the room seemed oppressive, i.e., warm and damp. It took a few minutes to get his wits about him, and when he became fully aware of his surroundings, he realized he was in no ordinary hospital. Around the "table" on which he reclined were three strange creatures-strange, because they were less than five feet tall, very pale, with large, domed heads, large eyes, small nose, mouth, and ears, and their bodies, encased in tannish orange, seamless jumpsuits, and were very thin.
