UFO ‘Refueling’ Itself In The Chemical Contrail Of A Jet Flying Over Amsterdam (Video)
UFO ‘Refueling’ Itself In The Chemical Contrail Of A Jet Flying Over Amsterdam (Video)
An aircraft encounters a blinking object, sighted and caught on video while tracking the aircraft on October 12, 2014.

The object approaches the plane in apparently purposeful manner, heading straight for contrails, where it hangs for a while before exiting the trail.
According to Examiner.com, the close up reveals that, although there seems to be a flashing, navigational beacon on the UFO, its shape and configuration resembles no known aircraft, such as a helicopter, airplane or even a drone.
A witness captured video of a UFO over Charlotte, North Carolina.
Luis Rodriguez was walking his dog at approximately 7:30 p.m. on the night of Saturday, October 11 when he noticed the unusual aerial object. NBC Charlotte reports that, after watching the UFO move through the sky, Rodriguez “believes it was a UFO, a spaceship of some sort.”
“Tried to make sense of it just like any other rational person would,” he states. “I thought it was a plane or some sort of aircraft that was just flying really low.”

The station sent Rodriguez’s video to Catherine Qualtrough, Observatory Director and Astronomy Lab Manager at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC). She opines that the object in the video looks strange, but she states, “Of course, normally in these situations, we find a simple explanation.”
Looking for that simple explanation, NBC Charlotte reporter Dan Yesenosky considered the possibility that the UFO sighting could be related to an event taking place nearby at the same time as the sighting.
The Bank of America 500 NASCAR race occurred at Charlotte Motor Speedway the night of the sighting. And the speedway is just minutes from Rodriguez’s apartment. The race, which began at approximately 7:48 p.m., was preceded by a flyover by Team AeroDynamix. And video of this flyover strongly resembles the UFO seen by Rodriguez.
Yesenosky showed video of the flyover to Rodriguez, who acknowledges the similarity to what he observed in the sky. But he’s not completely convinced. “I didn’t see different aircrafts together,” he explains to NBC Charlotte. “I saw just a perfect V-shape, slim V-shape up above the sky.” But from his vantage point, it’s understandable how he could view the close flying of Team AeroDynamix as one craft.
Representatives from the Charlotte Motor Speedway and Qualtrough from UNCC agree that the flyover is most likely the v-shaped UFO Rodrigues captured on video.
(N.Morgan) In another revealing and shocking documentary, we explore the UFO phenomenon in the UK. There has been something of a glut of UFO and alien sightings over the past few months. With that in mind, here is our look back at some of the close encounters that have been making the headlines. UFOs and other worldly beings have been spotted and recorded all over the world. What is it they want from us? Or are these military weapons they are testing and taking out for special flights? Or on a more darker note, could these craft and begins be part of a more sinister plan to trick the global populace into thinking we’ve been invaded by another planet?
(N.Morgan) I have found videos of brightly lit orbs seemingly observing the scenery below. Both sightings, the first in the UK, then 2 days later, in California. What do you think is going on with these sightings? Here’s a new video of a three bright spheres making maneuvers over Petaluma, a city located north of San Francisco in California. The witness recorded this event on Monday, 13th October 2014.
This interesting UFO sighting video of a triangular-shaped formation flying across the sky above Swansea in United Kingdom. Recorded on 11th October 2014.
Witness report:I thought they were airplanes at first but they were too close and crossing paths. I pulled the car over and recorded them on my iphone 5 with the highest zoom.

A passenger flying from Chicago to Los Angeles reported watching a disc-shaped object that moved close to the plane, according to testimony in Case 60579 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The plane was descending into Los Angeles about 5:30 p.m. on October 7, 2014, when the object was first seen.
“I was in the back of the plane looking out the window,” the witness stated.”As we descended we passed a silver sphere.”
The witness described the object’s location very close to the plane.
“It was about three feet past the wing and about three feet below the wing. It was 5:30 p.m. and still daylight. The object reflected the sunlight.”
The witness described the object.
“It was about four feet around. I got a good look at it because I saw it coming and watched it as we passed it. Definitely not a balloon. I was pretty scared after I saw it because it was so close to the wing. If we had hit it, we would have crashed.”
California MUFON is investigating. California has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. California had 66 UFO report in September 2014 – calculated at 1.73 sightings per million population. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
This NASA pic from Mars has to be the most amazing evidence yet to do with intelligent life on Mars, the picture is so good it had to be kept from media so the wider world have no clue this exists, only us the NASA archive searchers would get the chance of seeing the mysterious picture. Cross shaped with a circle around it, this wort be found on any rock formation on earth yet this very small cross was found on the huge Mars surface, If this is 1 find already then the likely hood of finding more explosive evidence must be round the corner “OR” in the archives still to be found. Published on NASA’a jet propulsion laboratory the pic is one of many possible dead certs. So why did media not get hold of this? unless NASA servers know what media servers are searching and can block the press from finding such a pic.
U.S. Scientist unveil NASA’s secrets about cities on the Moon and microbes on Mars. The former manager of the Data and Photo Control Department at NASA’s Lunar Receiving Laboratory during the manned Apollo Lunar Program, Ken Johnston, has released quite a number of sensational statements recently in the USA. The specialist said that U.S. astronauts found ancient ruins of artificial origin and a previously unknown technology to control gravitation when then landed on the Moon. Astronauts took pictures of the objects that they found, but NASA ordered Johnston to destroy the images. Johnston did not follow the order. He said that the U.S. government had been keeping this information a secret for 40 years. Johnston’s startling Apollo allegations have recently appeared in a new book, “Dark Mission: the Secret History of NASA,” co-authored by former NASA consultant and CBS Science Advisor, Richard C. Hoagland and Mike Bara, an aerospace engineering consultant. According to Kay Ferrari, JPL Director of the SSA Program (in a phone call to Johnston last week), it was Johnston “being quoted [as] criticizing NASA in Hoagland’s new book, ‘Dark Mission,’” that prompted her to ask for Johnston’s resignation from the SSA Program. When Johnston refused, citing First Amendment protections of free speech afforded all NASA employees, even those at JPL, Ferrari apparently decided to remove him arbitrarily from the SSA Program this week without cause. The low quality pictures included in the book depict ruins of buildings, huge dome-like objects made of glass, stone towers and castled hanging in the air.
The South Wales Evening Post says, “Even the most sceptical [sic] viewer has to admit that something funny is going on in this video.”
The video (seen above) was submitted to the South Wales Evening Post by reader Jason Williams. He says he saw the objects yesterday afternoon while in the town of Swansea, and was sure they were not lights reflecting on his windshield.

Williams told the Evening Post, “They were hovering around in the clouds, and eventually two disappeared but one remained in sight, then it eventually went behind the clouds.”

In the UK, many UFOs have turned out to be misidentified Chinese Lanterns, but Williams doesn’t believe that to be the case with his video. He said, “They didn’t seem to be those chinese lanterns as they looked very high and a lot brighter than the lanterns usually are. They didn’t move like lanterns either.”
In the video, there are three small bright objects that can be seen above a building. The Evening Post describes them as “strange sparkling lights high in sky.”
The objects do not appear to be the same color as normal Chinese Lanterns, which are also typically launched at night. Not during the day as in Williams’ video. However, it is possible they are balloons reflecting in the sun.
The Evening Post posted the video on their Facebook and Twitter accounts, asking readers to let them know what they think. So far, no commenter has come up with another theory to explain the mysterious lights.
However, a stand-up comedian named Phil Evans in nearby Ammanford did take the opportunity to make a joke about it. He wrote, “One landed in my garden on 1st of October at 11.59 pm. Clearly it was lost, so I went to offer assistance and it took off like a shot, with my clothes line attached. I’ve since had to purchase new socks, pyjamas [sic]and a continental quilt cover. That’s the first and last time I’m offering to help a space ship. It’s not worth it.”

UFO appears during news weather report in Auckland on 5th October 2014
UFO appears during news weather report in Auckland on 5th October 2014
New interesting video footage of a strange UFO sighting recorded during news weather report in Auckland on 5th October 2014.
Witness said: I was watching the weather report on tv one on 05/10/14 when they started to show Auckland through a live camera. Suddenly I saw this strange object coming from behind the cloud, getting brighter and disappearing at high speed towards the Sky Tower. It is possible to see its trail moving fast behind the tower. It happeneed in Auckland – New Zealand and I dont know what it could have been.
Witness said: Wife & I driving on hwy I-85 westbound. Sky had multiple cloud formations. My wife held cell phone out window and was snapping shots as we rode. After about 7 shots she stopped. Nothing was viable in sky as we rode. After snapping pics we were looking at them. On the last photo we saw the 4 objects which looked like exhaust coming out of bottom. One or two previous shots showed faint blurred images which I assume we’re part of this 4 but not as close. Never saw items, only appeared in photo. After seeing these my wife and I wondered how we had pics when nothing was visable. Othere who have seen the pic are also wondering how this could be.
Op deze manieren zoeken wetenschappers naar tijdreizigers
Op deze manieren zoeken wetenschappers naar tijdreizigers
Tijdreizen wordt al sinds de negende eeuw voor Christus beschreven, in een tekst van de Mahabharata. Zelfs onze voorouders vroegen zich af of we door de tijd kunnen reizen. Terwijl natuurkundigen de wetenschap achter tijdreizen blijven bestuderen, zijn er maar weinig mensen die gewoon vragen of er ook mensen uit de toekomst onder ons zijn.
Ze bestaan: mensen die uit de toekomst komen. Tenminste, op internet. De één zegt een soort geheim agent te zijn die in 2061 samen met andere agenten is teruggestuurd naar 2011. Ze moesten getuigenissen met rampzalige gevolgen analyseren en erachter komen wie daar verantwoordelijk voor waren.
Een andere ‘tijdreiziger’ vertelt op zijn blog over grote gebeurtenissen die in de toekomst zullen plaatsvinden. Zo zouden we in 2051 zeker weten dat UFO’s en buitenaardsen bestaan en breekt volgend jaar de derde wereldoorlog uit.
Feestje voor tijdreizigers
Veel natuurkundigen zeggen dat tijdreizen mogelijk is. Gizmodo heeft een aantal manieren op een rij gezet waarop men naar tijdreizigers zoekt. Volgens kosmoloog Stephen Hawking is het mogelijk dat de mens in de toekomst vooruit kan reizen in de tijd. Om ver vooruit in de tijd te reizen zal een ruimteschip 99,99 procent van de lichtsnelheid moeten bereiken.
Als dat gebeurt zal er in de tijd gereisd worden. Volgens Hawking komt dat doordat de tijd in de ruimte sneller gaat dan op aarde. Hoe hoger de snelheid is die door het ruimteschip wordt bereikt, hoe minder tijd er in het schip voorbij gaat in vergelijking met de aarde. Een dag op het ruimteschip staat dan gelijk aan een jaar op aarde, aldus de wetenschapper.
Hawking organiseerde al eens een feestje voor tijdreizigers, waarbij hij de uitnodigingen verstuurde toen het feestje al voorbij was. Op die manier zouden alleen mensen uit de toekomst van het evenement afweten. Helaas kwam er niemand opdagen.
Conventie van tijdreizigers
In mei 2005 organiseerde het Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) een bijeenkomst met de bedoeling contact te maken met tijdreizigers uit de toekomst. De zogeheten Conventie van tijdreizigers was van tevoren aangekondigd, en er waren bijna 500 normale bezoekers aanwezig.
De plaats en tijd van de conventie worden ook achteraf nog regelmatig gepubliceerd, zodat toekomstige tijdreizigers ervan op de hoogte zijn en in staat zijn om de conventie bijgewoond te hebben.
Alle tijdreizigers uit de toekomst waren welkom, er waren geen kledingvoorschriften. De organisatoren wilden alleen een duidelijk bewijs dat de tijdreizigers uit de toekomst afkomstig waren, zoals een demonstratie van een geavanceerde technologie. Er kwamen op de conventie uiteindelijk geen tijdreizigers opdagen.
Tijdreizigers gezocht op internet
Wetenschappers van de Universiteit van Michigan speurden het internet af naar tijdreizigers. Ze tikten zoektermen in die de mensheid pas na een bepaalde datum leerde kennen, waaronder ‘komeet ISON’ en paus Franciscus’, en keken of ze per ongeluk al eens eerder waren gebruikt door een tijdreiziger.
Ook vroegen ze aan twitteraars om gebruik te maken van bepaalde hashtags. Mensen die deze hashtags al voor de oproep hadden gebruikt, moesten wel tijdreizigers zijn. Deze tijdreizigers werden echter niet gevonden. Het feit dat ze niet zijn aangetroffen, bewijst volgens de wetenschappers niet dat tijdreizen onmogelijk is.
“Its really a beautiful figure of a glowing alien entity standing near a small saucer. This entity has been seen in about 3-4 other photos and it always appears as pure light and even once had wings. I am glad to see that aliens have an interest in human activities, but I certainly hope that when we need their assistance, that they intervene to lend a hand,” says Scott Waring, author of UFO Sightings Daily.

Three South Dakota campers in Black Hills National Forest reported encountering a glowing UFO that moved toward them at ground level, according to testimony in Case 60560 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The three friends drove in from the Twin Cities arriving in Rapid City, SD, on the morning of Friday, June 20, 2014, stopping at a camping store for supplies. Armed with a national park map, they decided to explore a remote location that required driving an hour and-a-half to a camp ground.
“We geared up and began a hike up a nearby mountain,” the reporting witness stated. “The hike was very strenuous. It was not a designated trail and involved a lot of climbing over fallen trees. After a couple hours we reached the summit and found an area with a clearing in the trees and a suitable place to set up a base camp.”
The three immediately got busy with setting up their camp for the night.
“We built a fire ring out of stones, started a fire, and ate dinner as it began to get dark. That time of year the sun doesn’t set until late. It doesn’t get completely dark until almost 10 p.m., but when it does the stars really come out. There was zero light pollution and not a cloud on the sky. We sat and admired the stars as we listened to music and talked about our plans to hike to the top of mountain peak tomorrow.”
The witness first noticed the UFO as looking like a bright star.
“As I was looking towards the horizon, I noticed a very unusually large star giving off a lot of light. It was just above the horizon and visible through the trees. It appeared to be hovering in place, but as it clearly was moving I figured it had to be a plane.”
The object moved quickly toward the ground level and hovered over their camp site. Pictured: Custer, SD, near Black Hills National Forest. (Credit: Google)
But now the hovering object appeared to be moving.
“But as I watched it as best I could through the forest, I noticed it was clearly changing its path and trajectory. It was ascending and descending, shooting left, stopping, hovering, and zooming left and up again. I pointed this out to my two buddies. I shined the flash light on it and said – there’s no-way that could be a plane. We were all observing the object now. It was obviously under some kind of intelligent control, but wasn’t making a sound.”
One of the campers suggested they turn down their music to hear the object.
“As we did that, the UFO started to descend. It was now below the tree line and began to come closer. I’m shining my light on it when the fear set in that this was not something that we could explain.”
Another camper suggested they also turn off their lights.
“The object was giving off a lot of light. It was so bright that it was illuminating all the grass below it and causing the trees between its location and ours to cast shadows. It was now maybe only 10-15 feet above the ground and heading in the direction of our tent.”
The object continued to move closer.
“Where we set up the fire was only about 100 feet from the tent. The object was now only a rock’s throw away. We all held our breath – were silent – frozen in a fear that we are alone in the woods with this glowing object that has no explanation. It reached a point directly above our tent and stopped.”
It then appeared to the campers that the object was actually observing them.
“There is a direct line of sight between our position and the object. It seemed to turn and directly observe us. I began to move out of its view, but without ever taking my eyes off it. There seemed to be an energy in the air. This was the most powerful experience of my life. Just as mysteriously as it arrived, it disappeared right in front of us. We were all pretty shook. ‘WOW! So bizarre. Is it gone? Is it coming back? Are we ok?’ These are the questions going through our minds.”
The group of campers considered their immediate situation.
“We really didn’t know if we were in danger. We’re all alone in the woods. There is no immediate help. We don’t have the use of any cell phones, no weapons. It was really an incredible experience. We all asked each other if this really just happened. It would’ve been easier to simply block it out. It’s pretty mind blowing to become aware of something like this. We all agreed we all saw the same thing. I remember seeing a plane and finding comfort in something I recognized and had an explanation for.”
The reporting witness wanted to make the group comfortable before any panic set in.
“So I started the music and built the fire back up. We were all throwing logs on the fire when all of a sudden, a light flashed and an object went streaking across the sky above us leaving a tail behind it.”
The witness described the object.
“It was tearing through the air and burning in bright colors as it lit up the forest below. It began to fall into the canyon between the mountain we were on and the one across from us. As it fell, it exploded and burnt up in vibrant colors of blue, turquoise and aqua.”
The only idea among them was that the object was a meteorite.
“But I can’t help but feel like this was directly related to the UFO. I’ve seen hundreds of shooting stars in my life, but all have burned in colors of white or yellow, never blue. And rarely could I so much as hear one, much less be shook by its intensity as it burns up and explodes.”
The reporting witness said he stayed up at this point until the sun rose.
“As we sat on the edge of the mountains talking about the experience, we witnessed two more UFOs moving across the sky that night. The first was traveling at what appeared to be a very high altitude. It de-accelerated, stopped, changed trajectory, accelerated, and then took off out of sight. The second behaved in a similar matter.”
The reporting witness attempted to videotape the objects seen that night.
“I had a video camera with me the whole night. I attempted to record all three objects. The camera could not make out the lights in the dark. There is however a few seconds in the video where the first object can be seen through the trees darting up, down, left and right.”
Black Hills National Forest is located in southwestern South Dakota and northeastern Wyoming. The forest has an area of over 1.25 million acres. South Dakota MUFON is investigating.
The above quotes were edited for clarity. South Dakota has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. South Dakota had 1 UFO report in September 2014 – the 46th highest reporting state – calculated at 1.20 sightings per million population – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state.

The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Ghosts ‘possess woman and then write letters using her hands’
This woman claims she allows ghosts to possess her and then use her hands to write letters.
It may sound like a scene from the Ghost film but Catherine Kennedy swears she is being manoeuvred by a spirit that has inhabited her.
The video shows her sitting at a desk in Scotland and then beginning to ‘automatically’ write.
Kennedy claims to have brought together her husband Antonio and one of his dead friends Ivo after writing a letter in Italian, despite not being able to speak it fluently.
‘At first he (husband) didn’t believe me, but when he read the letters he said it was obvious it wasn’t me,’ she said.
‘He was amazed at my flawless translation.’
If that wasn’t enough Kennedy also says she was told what goes on in the afterlife.
She can’t tell you of course because the ghost made her promise to keep it a secret. – Metro
With a shout of “Viking!” as he waved aloft a silver arm-ring, metal detector enthusiast Derek McLennan knew he had found something remarkable.
What he did not realise was that the treasure trove of more than 100 items – including gold and silver jewellery, ingots and a unique enamelled cross – was one of the most significant Viking hoards ever discovered in Scotland.
When the spot where Mr McLennan, 47, made his original find was fully explored, an archaeologist unearthed a silver cup containing more items wrapped in cloth.
The contents of the Carolingian cup, engraved with animals and one of only three known in Britain imported from the Holy Roman Empire of Charlemagne and his successors, are still to be X-rayed and their provenance revealed.
The discovery, the largest and most important Viking treasure found in Scotland since 1891, was made while Mr McLennan was exploring fields owned by the Church of Scotland in Dumfries with fellow detectorists the Rev David Bartholomew and the pastor of Elim Pentecostal Church, Mike Smith, both from Galloway.
Mr McLennan said he was rendered speechless at what he had unearthed two feet beneath the ground – well below the depth his machine should pick up a signal.
Among the items was the early Christian solid silver cross with enamelled decorations, thought to date from the ninth or tenth century.
Mr McLennan, who thinks the decorations could represent the four evangelists Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, said: “I believe they resemble the carvings you can see on the remnants of St Cuthbert’s coffin in Durham cathedral. For me, the cross opens up the possibility of an intriguing connection with Lindisfarne and Iona.”
Experts said while the hoard shares elements with other spectacular Viking age finds, this new hoard is of international interest because of its unique mixture of gold, silver, glass, enamel and textiles.
Church of Scotland trustees have reached an agreement with Mr McLennan for an equitable sharing of the reward when the hoard’s value is assessed.
Other items include a golden bird pin, silver stamp-decorated bracelets from Ireland and beads commonly found in Scandinavia.
Mr Bartholomew said: “It was tremendously exciting, especially when we noticed the silver cross lying face-downwards. It was poking out from under the pile of silver ingots and decorated arm-rings, with a finely wound silver chain still attached to it.”
Fiona Hyslop, the culture secretary, said: “It’s clear these artefacts are of great value in themselves, but their greatest value will be in what they can contribute to our understanding of life in early medieval Scotland, and what they tell us about the interaction between the different peoples in these islands at that time.” – Scotsman
Thousands of spiders ‘bleed out of the walls’ and force family from home
A family was driven from their suburban St Louis home by thousands of venomous spiders that fell from the ceiling and oozed from the walls.
Brian and Susan Trost bought the $450,000 home overlooking two golf holes at Whitmoor Country Club in Weldon Spring in October 2007. Soon after that, they started seeing brown recluse spiders everywhere, the St Louis Post-Dispatch reported.
Susan Trost told St Louis television station KMOV-TV that in 2012 the spiders “started bleeding out of the walls”, and at least two pest control companies were unable to eradicate the infestation.
The couple filed a claim in 2008 with their insurance company, State Farm, and a lawsuit against the home’s previous owners for not disclosing the brown recluse problem.
At a civil trial in St Charles County in October 2011, University of Kansas biology professor Jamel Sandidge – considered one of the nation’s leading brown recluse researchers – estimated there were between 4,500 and 6,000 spiders in the home. Making matters worse, he said, those calculations were made in the winter – when the spiders are least active.
The jury awarded the couple slightly more than $472,000, but the former owners declared bankruptcy, the insurance company still didn’t pay anything and the couple moved out two years ago.
The home, now owned by the Federal National Mortgage Association, was covered with nine tarps this week as workers filled it with a gas that permeated the walls to kill the spiders and their eggs.
“There’ll be nothing alive in there after this,” said Tim McCarthy, president of the company hired to fix the problem once and for all. – The Guardian
ALIEN ENCOUNTERS AND MISSING FATHER IN EASTERN KENTUCKY OCTOBER 1988 ……. EASTERN KENTUCKY
In October 1988 a friend and I had an astonishing UFO sighting and encounter. We were both in our sophomore year of high school. I will discuss that incident later in my story, but first I want to relate other experiences. Two years later strange things started to happen to me. On my 18th birthday I went to bed about 11:30 pm. All I remember was laying down. Sometime around 3 am I woke up in the backyard, freezing and absolutely terrified. What I don’t understand is if I was sleep walking why didn’t my parents wake me up? I know my mom should have because she has always been a very light sleeper. After the incident I couldn’t sleep at all for the next 3 nights. In November 1994 I was living alone in a house that a friend’s grandmother had rented to me. One night I was laying on the couch watching television. After the program I rolled over and went to sleep. Not long after I was awaken by very intense bright white lights. At first I thought someone had pulled into my driveway and I started to get up to see who it was. I thought it might have been a friend of mine who lived right up the road, because he had come to the house that late on a number of occasions because he worked the 2nd shift. As I was starting to get out of bed to see who it was an overwhelming terror came over me. I laid back down and pulled the covers over my head. That’s all I remember until the next morning when I woke up with my feet on the back of the couch and my head and body on the floor with my shirt on the wrong side out. I had a similar experience in 1996 at a different house in a different part of the country. Now, it’s happened again. Early this morning at around 5 am I woke and swear I saw 3 small figures standing next to the bed. It was pitch black because the power had gone off. I immediately rolled back over and put the covers over my head and thought to myself “I didn’t see that. I don’t want to see that”. After a few minutes and without taking the covers off of my head I reached over on the night stand and got my flashlight, raised up out of bed and simultaneously turn on the flashlight. There was nothing there. I was terrified because it felt like someone was in the bedroom with me even though I could not see anything. Oddly enough as soon as I clicked on the flashlight the power came back on immediately afterwards. I’m not claiming that I have been abducted but if I was I simply don’t want to know the details. I’m overly concerned that these experiences will continue and that I will eventually become aware that an abduction is occurring. I have never received any communication and I cannot find any marks on my body. The only symptoms I have are insomnia for several days and loss of appetite. I don’t get tired or sleepy. I have noticed that some items in the house are moved around and, in fact, a few things have gone missing including a perfume bottle, a hair brush and a blanket. To be honest with you, my real concern centers around my father and the UFO incident in October 1988. The night I had the sighting and encounter, my father went missing. He has never been seen or heard from again. He had previously claimed that he has been abducted by extraterrestrials and that these beings performed experiments on him. The encounter my friend and I had was very scary and confusing. We have never been able to talk about it to each other, even though we are still close. I have an awful feeling something may happen to me and that I may actually find out what became of my father. Can someone possibly give me sound advice? I have seen psychiatrists and psychologists for almost 15 years now. No one has been able to alleviate my fear.
Mark this day on your calendars, this is the day when humankind found out where we come from.Extraterrestrials. Unequivocally the biological entity was “like nothing found on earth”

There has been a theory of our origins that has been around for a long time, it is called panspermia. Panspermia is a Greek word that translates as “seeds everywhere”. The panspermia hypothesis states that the “seeds” of life exist all over the Universe and can be propagated through space from one location to another. Mechanisms for panspermia include the deflection of interstellar dust by solar radiationpressure and extremophile microorganisms traveling through space within an asteroid, meteorite or comet
Panspermia does not provide an explanation for evolution or attempt pinpoint the origin of life in the Universe, but it does attempt to solve the mysteries of the origin of life on Earth and the transfer of life throughout the Universe.
Researchers at the University of Sheffield, and the University of Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology, claim to have found particulates of matter in the Earth’s stratosphere that is the long awaited proof of extraterrestrial life. Not being content with solving one of the universe’s greatest mysteries, however, the researchers also claim that their findings explain the origins of humanity and reveal that all life on earth originally came from space.

During last years Perseid meteor shower Professor Milton Wainwright and his team made the discovery after launching a balloon high into the stratosphere. This research balloon reached the amazing altitude of 27 km into the earth’s atmosphere and was equipped with sterile slides designed to capture tiny biological organisms, and capture organisms it did.
Wainwight stated that it was unclear whether the organism was a single life-form or was made up of a number of smaller microbes. He was also unequivocal that the biological entity was “like nothing found on earth”.

We’re very, very confident that these are biological entities originating from space,” he said, acknowledging that absolutely certainty is hard to achieve in science.

“The particles are very clean,” added Prof Wainwright. “They don’t have any dust attached to them, which again suggests they’re not coming to earth.”

The team believes that the entities are coming from comets. “Similarly, cosmic dust isn’t stuck to them, so we think they came from an aquatic environment, and the most obvious aquatic environment in space is a comet.”
As with all amazing discoveries this revelation has it’s expected detractors. Obviously more testing is required to fulfill scientific methodology. More testing is scheduled. This is such a paradigm shaking discovery that a lot of our current theories of our origin will have to be scrapped, and rightfully so. We as enlightened humans must embrace change and advancement, no matter who we offend or who’s feelings get hurt. Text books can be rewritten and beliefs changed and the world will keep on spinning
