Infant Worlds Could Provide Clues To Alien Life In The Universe
Infant Worlds Could Provide Clues To Alien Life In The Universe
The existence of alien life isn’t a matter of “if”, but “where”. With the new research, finding of which distant planets host or can host life beyond Earth is now easier than decades ago. The so-called habitable zone of young planets have been discovered by scientists to be wider than previously imagined, making Earth-like planets more evident.
Astronomy professor Lisa Kaltenegger from Cornell’s College of Arts and Sciences said that searching for new, inhabitable worlds is one of the most exciting activities human beings are currently doing, and finding infant Earth-like planets adds another piece to the puzzle. Kaltenegger explained that surprises in the search for planets like Earth make it so exciting. Astrophysical Journal Letters will publish a new study on the January 1, 2015 issue.
Habitable zones are planets that are not too hot and not too cold. They also have an indication of the presence of water, one of the essential ingredients of life to exist. Astronomers are now focusing on star-orbiting planets and hope to find some at their young age. Research associate at Cornell, Ramses M. Ramirez, said that next generation ground-based telescopes could make finding young stars less difficult because they are easier to recognize when the Habitable Zone is farther out.
Astronomers have already reached distance regions of the universe, but there are a lot of galaxies to cover. Billions of stars are estimated to exist in the universe, and it is a challenge for the researchers to determine which among them have signs of life, which involves a set of complex equations, intuition, and sometimes luck.
Determining the size of a planet and its distance from a star are just two of several techniques at astronomers’ disposal for locating planets with conditions suitable for life. In a report by the Telegraph, scientists can find planets 3 to 5 times the mass of Earth as of the moment, but time will come in the near future that planets much smaller than Earth could also be observed.
According to an estimate by scientists, tens of billions of planets are candidates of supporting life in Milky Way alone. However, they don’t believe that every Earth-like planet has alien life because other conditions should be met, such as the atmosphere should be just sufficient for life.
(N.Morgan) In this latest installment by Paranormal Crucible, she shares more of the intriguing images from Mars, that are her favorites. The ongoing mystery of these objects appearing on Mars is mind boggling and leaves more questions, rather than giving answers. Is NASA is digitally altering “official” Mars composites by copying and pasting segments from one part of the picture to another? The question is: Why? Is it to cover up blank spots in the composite? Or is to to hide something?
Kepler Candidate Planets Searched for Signs of Intelligent Life
Kepler Candidate Planets Searched for Signs of Intelligent Life

A recent Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) effort studied 86 candidates in the Kepler space observatory's field for radio signals that could potentially indicate the presence of an intelligent civilization.
Of course, no radio signals were found, but the search did identify the most promising Kepler objects for wide-band observations using the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia.
"The 86 target stars were selected because they hosted planets discovered by [the year] 2011 with properties that could be conducive to the development of life," said Abhimat Gautam, of the University of California, Berkeley. [10 Exoplanets That Could Host Alien Life]
Gautam, who recently completed his senior undergratuate year at the University of California, Berkeley and was part of the Berkeley SETI Research Center, presented the results at the 224th summer meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Boston, Massachusetts in June.
Widening the search
By 2011, Kepler had revealed 1,235 planetary candidates (as of Dec. 31, 2014, that number stands at 4,183, with 996 of them confirmed as planets). Gautam worked with Andrew Siemion and other scientists of the Berkeley SETI Research Center to select 86 planetary candidates that had surface temperatures between minus 50 and 100 degrees Celsius (minus 58 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit), a radius smaller than three times that of Earth, and an orbital period of more than 50 days. Such conditions placed the objects within the habitable zone around their stars, the region where liquid water can exist on the surface and where life might best be able to develop on a planet.
The Green Bank Telescope (the world's largest fully steerable radio telescope, located in Green Bank, West Virginia) targeted the parent stars using a wide-band signal. Scientists had performed previous searches of the Kepler field in the narrow band with no success. Only 5 Hertz (Hz) wide on the radio spectrum, narrow-band signals are only known to arise from artificial sources on Earth, Gautam said. The narrow-band range is commonly used in SETI searches.
By switching to wide-band, Gautam hoped for a number of benefits. Wide-band signals cover 2.5 Megahertz (MHz), which is half a billion times wider than previous searches. Increasing the region of the radio spectrum observed means that listening scientists can search for broader signals than those previously observed. [13 Ways to Hunt Intelligent Aliens]
The interstellar medium — the gas and dust between stars — can spread the signal out as it travels through the material, causing a delay that could provide a rough estimate of the distance to any detectable source and allowing SETI astronomers to track potential communications back to their origins.
In addition, a wide-band signal may be more commonly used for intentional signaling, Gautam said.
"An advanced alien civilization may even use a pulsar for signaling, which can be more easily and effectively detected in a wide-band search."
Gautam, who is now pursuing a doctorate in astronomy at the University of California, Los Angeles, first took interest in SETI through the SETI@Home project while still in high school. He contacted Dan Werthimer, chief scientist for SETI@Home, in search of available research projects.
"When UC Berkeley undergraduate students majoring in the physical sciences express an interest in continuing on for a graduate degree in their field, one of the first suggestions they receive is to seek out research opportunities," SETI’s Andrew Siemion told Astrobiology Magazine in an email.
Gautam presented the results while he was still an undergraduate student because "it was all his work," Siemion said. "Abhimat was a fantastic member of our research group."
Scanning the skies
The SETI search focused both on active signals deliberately broadcast by a potential civilization, as well as passive signals such as those created by Earth's television shows and airport radars.
"We expect intentional, active signals to be brighter and easier to detect than non-intentional, passive signals," Gautam said.
With the Green Bank Telescope pointed at each target star, the radio beam would span approximately 4.2 light-years, wide enough to engulf the planetary system, including unknown bodies.
According to Siemion's SETI blog, the search also covered a region of the radio spectrum known as the "terrestrial microwave window," which can travel through both interstellar space and Earth's atmosphere with little distortion. Within that window, the SETI search covered the "water hole," a region of the radio spectrum bounded by the two products of water — hydrogen and hydroxyl.
"Some scientists have suggested that if an extraterrestrial intelligence were to deliberately signal other intelligent beings, they might chose this band," Siemion wrote.
The team found no sign of an intelligent civilization. They concluded that less than 1 percent of the stars in the region produce a radio signal greater than 60 times that of the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico.
"The Arecibo Planetary Radar is the most powerful radio transmitter on Earth," Gautam said. "This provides a good estimate for calculating estimates of the detectability of Earth-like technology in our search."

Venus May Have Once Been Awash With CO2 Oceans
Venus May Have Once Been Awash With CO2 Oceans
This image shows the surface of the northern hemisphere of Venus as observed by NASA's Magellan radar-mapping spacecraft, which peered through the planet's thick clouds during a mission that ended in 1994. Scientists now suspect Venus may have once harbored oceans of carbon dioxide in the ancient past.
NASA/JPL
Venus may have once possessed strange oceans of carbon dioxide fluid that helped shape the planet's surface, researchers say.
For years, we've believed that around 2 billion planets in the galaxy are able to support alien life. But what if we were wrong? Anthony discusses how new knowledge of the 'Goldilocks Zone' could mean life on up to 60 billion planets.
Venus is often described as Earth's twin planet because it is the world closest to Earth in size, mass, distance and chemical makeup. However, whereas Earth is a haven for life, Venusis typically described as hellish, with a crushing atmosphere and clouds of corrosive sulfuric acid floating over a rocky desert surface hot enough to melt lead.
Although Venus is currently unbearably hot and dry, it might have once had oceans like Earth. Prior research suggested that Venus possessed enough water in its atmosphere in the past to cover the entire planet in an ocean about 80 feet deep (25 meters) — if all that water could somehow fall down as rain. But the planet was probably too warm for such water to cool down and precipitate, even if the planet did have enough moisture. [The Weirdest Facts About Venus]
Instead of seas of water, then, scientists now suggest that Venus might have once possessed bizarre oceans of carbon dioxide fluid.
Carbon dioxide is common on Venus.
"Presently, the atmosphere of Venus is mostly carbon dioxide, 96.5 percent by volume," said lead study author Dima Bolmatov, a theoretical physicist at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.
Most familiar on Earth as a greenhouse gas that traps heat, helping warm the planet, carbon dioxide is exhaled by animals and used by plants in photosynthesis. While the substance can exist as a solid, liquid and gas, past a critical point of combined temperature and pressure, carbon dioxide can enter a "supercritical" state. Such a supercritical fluid can have properties of both liquids and gases. For example, it can dissolve materials like a liquid, but flow like a gas.
To see what the effects of supercritical carbon dioxideon Venus might be, Bolmatov and his colleagues investigated the unusual properties of supercritical matter. A great deal remains uncertain about such substances, he said.
Scientists had generally thought the physical properties of supercritical fluids changed gradually with pressure and temperature. However, in computer simulations of molecular activity, Bolmatov and his colleagues found that supercritical matter could shift dramatically from gaslike to liquidlike properties.
The atmospheric pressure on the surface of Venus is currently more than 90 times that of Earth, but in the early days of the planet, Venus' surface pressure could have been dozens of times greater. This could have lasted over a relatively long time period of 100 million to 200 million years. Under such conditions, supercritical carbon dioxide with liquidlike behavior might have formed, Bolmatov said.
"This in turn makes it plausible that geological features on Venus like rift valleys, riverlike beds, and plains are the fingerprints of near-surface activity of liquidlike supercritical carbon dioxide," Bolmatov told Space.com.
The researchers found that depending on the pressure and temperature, clusters of gas-like supercritical carbon dioxide [Michael D1] might have formed in this supercritical carbon dioxide on Venus that "looked like soap bubbles," Bolmatov said. "A bubble of gas that is covered by a thick layer of liquid."
Bolmatov and his colleagues said they now hope to conduct experiments to detect this shift from gaslike to liquidlike properties in supercritical carbon dioxide. The scientists detailed their findings in the Aug. 21 issue of the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters.
The Astronomical Society of the Caribbean captured images of an impressive and slow meteor visible from Puerto Rico on the early hours of sunday, december 28, 2014. The biggest Astronomical Society on Puerto Rico and the Caribbean (Sociedad de Astronomía del Caribe) had reports confirming the meteor was visible from all the Island.
There is an investigation about the possibility of space junk being related, because a Proton-M Russian rocket was launched carrying the Astra-2G communications satellite on December 27.
Another Russian rocket was launched on December 26 with the Resurs-P2 Earth observatory.
Because the meteor was seen for 44 seconds, it is possible that one of these rocket bodies reentered Earth’s atmosphere over Puerto Rico’s skies.
However, it can be a small asteroid and the incident was reported to NASA’s Ames Research Center in California for further investigation.
The meteor was moving from SW to E-NE and the video below shows the meteor in real (actual) speed.
The Astronomical Society of the Caribbean said that this event IS NOT related to another incident in Brazil, which also occurred on December 28.
According to the news site campograndenews.com.br the second incident on December 28 was another rocket reentered the atmosphere causing impressive sightings in the sky.
After three consecutive bangs, an object similar to a household gas tank fell in a yard of Santa Maria in Brazil. The farm owner’s friend, Marcelo says that the piece has 1.70 meters tall and weighing 50 pounds.
The lights were also seen in the sky by residents of several cities such as Campo Grande, Antonio João and South Fatima, and similar reports in Paraná and Paraguay. First, it was classified as meteor shower, but according to campograndenews.com.br the most likely is that it is space junk as a meteor has greater speed.
But according to Scott Waring from UFO Sightings Daily, Both incidents are related to the same object and it is not space junk. Scott Waring believes that it looks like a UFO shot something down or the UFO blew up. See Scott’s article: Escape Pod shoots out of UFO explosion over Brazil
ANCIENT ALIEN CRAFT WITNESSED THROUGHOUT THE WORLD
While reading about UFOs, a while back, it stuck in my mind that on New Year’s Day in 1254 the monks at St.Albans in England sighted ‘a kind of shipflying‘ in the sky that was ‘large, elegantly shaped and of a marvellous colour.’ The UFO phenomenon isn’t something new. I thought, for a change therefore, I’d look at a dozen of the UFO visits from the distance past.1504 BC: This is probably one of the earliest written accounts of a UFO – the following description is an excerpt from an Egyptian papyrus under the reign of Thutmose III. ‘In the year 22 … sixth hour of the day … the scribes of the House of Life found it was a circle of fire that was coming in the sky … it had no head, the breath of its mouth had a foul odour. Its body one rod long and one rod wide. It had no voice … Now after some days had passed, these things became more numerous in the skies than ever. They shone more in the sky than the brightness of the sun and extended to the four supports of the heavens … Powerful was the position of the fire circles … It was after supper. Thereupon these fire circles ascended higher in the sky towards the south … It was ordered by the Pharaoh to be written in the annals of the House of Life … so that it be remembered for ever.’ 500 BC: In the ancient Indian text Samarangana Sartradhara there is a description of piloted flying machines called vimanas. These were powered by some unknown source and they could ‘carry death’ to anywhere on earth. 216 BC: Julius Obsequens wrote in his book Prodigorium liber of how ‘things like ships were seen in the sky over Italy … At Apri a round shield was seen in the sky. At Capua, the sky was on fire, and one saw figures like ships.’ 214 BC: This time in Italy at Hadria ‘an altar in the sky’ was seen 66 AD: The historian Pliny the Elder tells of a big spark as ‘big as the moon’ which fell from the sky – and then returned to the heavens. He also told of how ‘a burning shield scattering sparks ran across the sky at sunset from east to west.’ 584: St. Gregory, the bishop of Tours in France, recorded various sightings in his Historia Francorum. ‘There appeared in the sky brilliant rays of light which seemed to cross and collide with one another.’ He also described ‘golden globes’ which flashed at speed across the skies of France. 793: The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle reports, ‘In this year terrible portents appeared in Northumbria (England) and miserably afflicted the inhabitants. These were exceptional flashing and lightning and fiery dragons seen flying through the air.’ 1170: Roger Niger described ‘a wonderfully large dragon’ which was ‘borne up from earth though the air. The air was kindled into fire by its motion and burned a house, reducing it and its outbuildings to ashes.’ This was seen at Osyth, Essex, England. 1180: In Japan something similar to a flying saucer was seen, though they described this as a flying ‘earthenware vessel.’ The object or UFO was heading in a northeast direction from a mountain in the Kii province. This suddenly changed direction and vanished below the horizon, leaving a luminous trail. 1290: The monks at Byland Abbey in Yorkshire spotted a ‘large round silver disk’ passing through the skies. 1561: This time the sighting was in Nuremberg in Germany where it was said that there was ‘a very frightful spectacle.’ During daylight glowing tubes, globes and crosses were seen in the sky and appeared to do battle. This lasted for an hour and some then fell to the earth as ‘if on fire.’ The image at the top of this post refers to this. There are many, many other UFO sightings on record from the distant past. We sometimes seem to think of such things as a modern phenomena, probably starting with the Kenneth Arnold flying saucer stories from 1947. But very little in life is actually new – much has already been seen or experienced previously by past generations.
We cannot afford to be naive and ignorant any longer It is time for the public to know the truth about the alien presence on our planet, what its overall goals are, and what we can do about it. The official policy of governments around the world has been to deny that extraterrestrial phenomenon exists, but this is clearly nonsenseical given the abuntant amount of leaked documentation, extremely credible high-level testimonies, genuine experiences, and extensive research that proves beyond dout otherwise. This is a story that receives virtually no media attention or consideration by the majority of people around the world. Yet the reality of advanced extraterrestrial life is one of the most profound realizations anyone can make. And it is one we must make if we are to continue serving as the caretakers of this planet without losing our freedoms as a race.

We cannot afford to be naive any longer, for the magnitude of this situation becomes cystal clear once you really see it for what it realy is. Most of us can fathom a human power elite vying for world domination, but we also need to consider the role that some extraterrestrial forces are having here too. It isn’t to say that every ET race is interested in take over, it is quite possible that many are interested in peace, but it is also true that a take over agenda could be the goal of some ET races. Our very freedoms depend on us seeing and knowing what we are truly up against. This is why genuine whistleblowers are so crucial at this time, as they can give us a unique perspective that the public is normally not privy to.The information presented in this article will be shocking to those who have not done much research on these subjects. That does not make these claims any less real or valid. Please proceed with caution, for the information you are about to read is extremely important to understand in a reasonable objective manner. Area 51 Groom Lake, Nevada is a mega-complex of 9 deep underground bases (Tonopah, S-2, S-4, etc), encompassing over 4.5 cubic miles of hollowed out underground space. There are over 17,000 workers some of which work 18 hour shifts and whose lives are kept secret and guarded structure. Whistle blowers have written afidavits the US government had signed an agreement in 1954 with extraterrestrials granting them the right to experiment on humans and cattle in exchange for technology. This agreement was known as the Grenada Treaty and is a documented event. The original terms for this treaty were that only a small number of humans could be abducted, they had to be returned to their original locations, their memories had to be wiped, and the aliens were supposed to submit a list of the individuals they were taking to Majestic. But after a few years it became clear that the aliens were taking many more humans than they had originally asked for, which caused the alien-human conflict that persists to this day. Some 9 races of alien beings regard us as a food source. They are not all cannibalistic, however. They use the glandular secretions of animals and humans for mixtures of the vitamins of their food, and can actually get high from our adrenaline. This is why there are so many reports of cruel and sadistic torture that goes on at these underground bases, as some of the aliens literally feed off the fear-laden substances that humans emit. A lot of people think that if aliens were here this whole time, that they would have taken over already. There are several reasons why this is not the case. The aliens are much more cunning than that. They know that a far more effective takeover is possible through secretive infiltration, persuasion and manipulation, which can be accomplished without a single shot . Also the aliens have a very hard time living on the surface because of the biological and bacterial risks of contamination. This is why they stay underground primarily as our germs could harm and even kill them. "Why" they have been abducting humans and performing organ, tissue, and DNA experiments has been to create an human alien hybrid race which has the physical endurance of humans along with the advanced mental also psychic capabilities of the aliens. We would not be able to tell the difference if we were to see them in person, they look exactly like normal human beings.. These hybrid beings are being created to serve as the next set of leaders infultrating our highest levels of goverment, and large corperations Look for deception to be used when the extraterrestrial reality is presented to the public. It is possible that they will try to sell some kind of “staged invasion threat” in order to scare people into submission and a heightened sense of fear-based unity. They will eventually present themselves as the “saviors” of humanity, seeming peaceful, effectively playing both sides, by offering us technology, wisdom, and other forms of assistance to our most pressing problems. If we accept their offers, we are likely to become dependent on them and will eventually lose our self-sufficiency as a race. We are not united enough as a race yet to be engaged in extraterrestrial diplomacy. These aliens have been intervening in human affairs without our invitation and are acting in a deceptive and secretive manner. They should not and cannot be trusted until they prove themselves. Humanity needs to establish proper borders to space and realize that we must change our ways significantly in order to deal with advanced lifeforms who are attempting to prey upon vulnerablities. These alien forces are very advanced technologically but show no emotional feelings. They can perform acts that some would call miracles. However, we can see past this with a clear understanding of the facts.The aliens are strong Mentaly , they use to influence our thoughts and feelings at will. Literally, they can project images, thoughts, and feelings onto a person and they would accept them as being totally real. This is why developing protective psychic self-defense measures and becoming strong is crusial and incredibly important for each of us. The strong will always dominate the weak so it is time to become strong. Together we must speak out against this alien intervention and demand the goverment tells us the truth about these matters. No longer can we sit on the sidelines and remain silent. Other truth outlets must start researching this phenomenon with courage showing no fear. Becoming educated about alien affairs is important, for our destiny is to emerge into a greater community of intelligent life. This process is happening now because alien forces are already here; we do not have to leave our planet to meet them. While they are providing a great threat to our freedom, they are also providing us a crucial opportunity to realize that we are one planetary race and ultimately one human family. It is time to see past our petty and insignificant differences and face the realities of life with objectivity, strength, and wisdom. We must become sufficiently united to counter these threats, create and learn about interacting with other advanced intelligent lifeforms. This may be hard to accept at first, we must do our best to remain objective when considering these issues. If humanity fails to adequately face and address these threats, the future is going to be far different than we imagine it now to be. We must fight for freedom, we have been lazy and complacent and now we must rise up again and take a stand for what our forefathers have earned for us. After all, if we lose our freedoms, we would have lost everything our very humanity? If we stand united we stand a chance, divided we will fall. The choice is yours. Time is short as the alien forces are growing stronger by the day. They are counting on us remaining ignorant and complacent and arrogantly assume that we will not stand up to them. Are we really going to let them just take over our planet without even facing them directly? Gathering in groups, discussing, and speaking out about the alien threat is of vital importance! Inform yourself by doing more research to understand the realities that we are facing today. They are of immense importance and not enough attention is being given to these issues. Let us take a true stand for our freedom and our stewardship of this beautiful planet. This is going to be set of tests but humanity can emerge through this as strong, united, together we will remain a free human race.

This is why developing protective psychic self-defense measures and becoming strong is crusial and incredibly important for each of us. The strong will always dominate the weak so it is time to become strong. Together we must speak out against this alien intervention and demand the goverment tells us the truth about these matters. No longer can we sit on the sidelines and remain silent. Other truth outlets must start researching this phenomenon with courage showing no fear. Becoming educated about alien affairs is important, for our destiny is to emerge into a greater community of intelligent life. This process is happening now because alien forces are already here; we do not have to leave our planet to meet them. While they are providing a great threat to our freedom, they are also providing us a crucial opportunity to realize that we are one planetary race and ultimately one human family. It is time to see past our petty and insignificant differences and face the realities of life with objectivity, strength, and wisdom. We must become sufficiently united to counter these threats, create and learn about interacting with other advanced intelligent lifeforms. This may be hard to accept at first, we must do our best to remain objective when considering these issues. If humanity fails to adequately face and address these threats, the future is going to be far different than we imagine it now to be. We must fight for freedom, we have been lazy and complacent and now we must rise up again and take a stand for what our forefathers have earned for us. After all, if we lose our freedoms, we would have lost everything our very humanity? If we stand united we stand a chance, divided we will fall. The choice is yours. Time is short as the alien forces are growing stronger by the day. They are counting on us remaining ignorant and complacent and arrogantly assume that we will not stand up to them. Are we really going to let them just take over our planet without even facing them directly? Gathering in groups, discussing, and speaking out about the alien threat is of vital importance! Inform yourself by doing more research to understand the realities that we are facing today. They are of immense importance and not enough attention is being given to these issues. Let us take a true stand for our freedom and our stewardship of this beautiful planet. This is going to be set of tests but humanity can emerge through this as strong, united, together we will remain a free human race.

Strange Objects photographed in the sky over ancient Machu Picchu in Peru |UFO Sightings Hotspot
Strange Objects photographed in the sky over ancient Machu Picchu in Peru |UFO Sightings Hotspot
Witness Report: During a trip last October, I visited Machu Picchu and took many photos of the site. After back in the hotel I looked at the photos and saw in two photos something that I could not identify and I also I didn’t remember it was there when I took the photos.
The first image shows a strange orange object.
The second image shows what looks like a rectangular object, but honestly I don't know what it is.
Besides, the strange orange object is no longer visible in the second image.

UFO mania: Father Crespi and the missing golden artefacts
UFO mania: Father Crespi and the missing golden artefacts
The story of father Crespi is one of the most enigmatic stories ever told - an unknown civilization, unbelievable artefacts, massive amounts of gold, depictions of strange figures connecting America to Sumeria, and symbols belonging to an unknown language. The account of what occurred reveals once again a conspiracy to hide the truth from the eyes of the public.
Father Carlos Crespi Croci was born in Milan, Italy, in 1891 and died in 1982. He was a Salesian monk who dedicated his life to worship and charity and lived in the small town of Cuenca in Ecuador for more than 50 years. He was a person of many talents – he had been an educator, botanist, anthropologist, musician, and above all, humanitarian. Because of his missionary work he became close to the indigenous people of Ecuador and was a highly respected person among the tribes, who considered him a true friend of theirs. The indigenous people gave Father Crespi gifts of ancient artefacts to thank him for the work he was doing to help them. They said the items brought to him had been found in subterranean tunnels in the jungles of Ecuador, spanning more than 200 km starting from the village of Cuenca. The amazing artefacts given to him had uncanny similarities with civilizations of the East, and were enough to fill up a large museum. However the location was never revealed and is still unknown. Many were killed by the indigenous people in their search for the mysterious subterranean tunnels with the hidden treasure.
Father Crespi was trusted by the Vatican to open a museum in the Salesian School at Cuenca, and up until 1960 it was the largest museum in Ecuador. However, Crespi suggested that there was an (obvious) connection between the artefacts and the ancient civilisations of Babylon and Sumeria.
What he did not consider is that such a suggestion would go against mainstream opinions. A short time later, the museum was burnt down and most of the artefacts were destroyed – with the exception of a few that he managed to save. However, when father Crespi died all the remaining artefacts were hidden from public view forever. Rumours suggest that the artefacts were shipped to the Vatican.
Father Crespi allegedly said that most of the symbols and prehistoric representation on the artefacts are older than the Flood. Explorer Richard Wingate mentioned that the artefacts were identified as Assyrian, Egyptian, Chinese and African. Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, was a member of a 1976 British military scientific expedition in search of the caves in Ecuador, but ended up in the wrong caves, following von Daniken’s directions. Another, more controversial theory, is that the treasure hidden in the caves is related to Atlantis, a continent that, if proved real, predates all other known civilizations. Just to make clear that the credibility of Father Crespi and his collection is not under doubt. However the age and the origin of the items is still unknown, and the fact that all of them vanished makes it more difficult to research further into their origins. Just imagine what the revelation of such a treasure would mean for the books of archaeology and our perception of human origins. The possible discovery of that cave system would change history forever. The pdf here presents all the documented artefacts.

Mystery Object Appears Near Milky Way's Monster Black Hole
Mystery Object Appears Near Milky Way's Monster Black Hole
A computer simulation shows the G2 gas cloud's encounter with the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* at the center of the Milky Way, as well as the paths of the many other objects that orbit the black hole.

A mystery object at the center of the galaxy has astronomers scratching their heads, and a new piece of information won't be solving the case before the New Year.
In yet another twist to a saga of astronomical proportions, astronomers now say a gas cloud called G1 made a tight orbit around the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy 13 years ago. The object could be one in a series of gas clouds, the second of which may soon become a snack for the black hole.
The G1 object can be seen in observational data sets as early as 2004. An object known as G2 has been in the news for more than a year, ever since astronomers at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Germany hypothesized that it was a gas cloud. If that is true, it should lose some of its material to the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way (known as Sagittarius A* or Sgr A*). This giant black hole — its name is pronounced Sagittarius A(star) — doesn't dine on material often, so the event would be a rare chance for astronomers to watch a black hole eat. [Top 10 Strangest Things in Space]
While the scientists at Max Planck contend that G2 is a gas cloud, a group of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, led by astrophysicist Andrea Ghez, argue that G2 is more likely a star surrounded by a layer of dust and gas. Over the summer, G2 made its closest approach to the black hole and was not torn apart. Ghez and her group argued that this was a knockout punch for the gas cloud theory — clear evidence that G2 is a solid body.
Using a combination of simulation and high-resolution images, researchers at the Max Planck Institute concluded that the G1 object (blue) would have taken a path very similar to the G2 object (red) around the super massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy (marked with an "x").

But the researchers at the Max Planck institute countered with an explanation for how G2 could have remained intact even if it is a gas cloud. Their theory incorporates the idea that G2 was once part of a larger gas cloud that subsequently broke up into smaller gas clouds that all follow the same path, like beads on a string. This "beading" of gas has been observed in the universe before. If additional clouds of gas could be identified following the same path as G2, that would strongly indicate that G2 is a gas cloud and not a star, the scientists say.
In their newest paper, the Max Planck group provides a computer model that retraces the path of G1. According to their research, G1 followed a path nearly identical to G2. The model does make certain assumptions about G1's motion — for example, that it decelerated near closest approach to the black hole.
"The good agreement of the model with the data renders the idea that G1 and G2 are part of the same gas streamer highly plausible," Stefan Gillessen, a co-author on the new research, said a statement.
The new study was first published on the online preprint journal arXiv.org and has been accepted to the Astrophysical Journal.
Editor's Note: This article was updated to correct the following error: the G1 object was first seen in 2004, and was not, as this article previously stated, "newly discovered."

Dark Matter --Is It the "Operating System" of the Universe? (Holiday Feature)
Dark Matter --Is It the "Operating System" of the Universe? (Holiday Feature)
Is dark matter the "operating system" of the Universe? Tom Broadhurst, an Ikerbasque researcher at the UPV/EHU's Department of Theoretical Physics, thinks it is. He has participated alongside scientists of the National Taiwan University in a piece of research that explores cold dark matter in depth and proposes new answers about the formation of galaxies and the structure of the Universe. These predictions, published today in the prestigious journal Nature Physics, are being contrasted with fresh data provided by the Hubble space telescope.
In cosmology, cold dark matter is a form of matter the particles of which move slowly in comparison with light, and interact weakly with electromagnetic radiation. It is estimated that only a minute fraction of the matter in the Universe is baryonic matter, which forms stars, planets and living organisms. The rest, comprising over 80%, is dark matter and energy.
The theory of cold dark matter helps to explain how the universe evolved from its initial state to the current distribution of galaxies and clusters, the structure of the Universe on a large scale. In any case, the theory was unable to satisfactorily explain certain observations, but the new research by Broadhurst and his colleagues sheds new light in this respect.
As the Ikerbasque researcher explained, "guided by the initial simulations of the formation of galaxies in this context, we have reinterpreted cold dark matter as a Bose-Einstein condensate". So, "the ultra-light bosons forming the condensate share the same quantum wave function, so disturbance patterns are formed on astronomic scales in the form of large-scale waves".
This theory can be used to suggest that all the galaxies in this context should have at their center large stationary waves of dark matter called solitons, which would explain the puzzling cores observed in common dwarf galaxies.
The image above is a comparison of the radial density profiles of the galaxies which the researchers have created by displaying the soliton in the centre of each galaxy with a halo surrounding it. The solitons are broader but have less mass in the smaller galaxies.
The image left, below, shows that a comparison of the distribution of matter is very similar on a large scale between wave dark matter, the focus of this research, and the usual dark matter particle.
Image right shows that in galaxies the structure is very different in the interpretation of the wave, which has been carried out in this research; the research predicts the soliton of dark matter in the centre surrounded by an extensive halo of dark matter in the form of large "spots", which are the slowly fluctuating density waves. This leads to many predictions and solves the problem of puzzling cores in smaller galaxies.
The research also makes it possible to predict that galaxies are formed relatively late in this context in comparison with the interpretation of standard particles of cold dark matter. The team is comparing these new predictions with observations by the Hubble space telescope.
The results are very promising as they open up the possibility that dark matter could be regarded as a very cold quantum fluid that governs the formation of the structure across the whole Universe.
This is not Thomas Broadhurst's first publication in the prestigious journal Nature. In 2012, he participated in a piece of research on a galaxy of the epoch of the reionization, a stage in the early universe not explored previously and which could be the oldest galaxy discovered. This research opened up fresh possibilities to conduct research into the first galaxies to emerge after the Big Bang.
Tom Broadhurst has a PhD in Physics from the University of Durham (United Kingdom). In 2010, he was recruited by Ikerbasque and carries out his work in the UPV/EHU's department of Theoretical Physics. His line of research focuses on observational cosmology, dark matter and the formation of galaxies.

"Vondst Egyptische artefacten in Jeruzalem geheimgehouden door Rockefeller Museum"
“Vondst Egyptische artefacten in Jeruzalem geheimgehouden door Rockefeller Museum”
Verschillende websites besteden aandacht aan de vermeende vondst van Egyptische archeologische voorwerpen in het voormalige huis van de beroemde egyptoloog Sir William Petrie in Jeruzalem. De voorwerpen kunnen ‘de geschiedenis van Egypte en de rest van de wereld herschrijven’.
In een filmpje van de website Paranormal Crucible worden antieke voorwerpen getoond die gevonden zouden zijn op het ‘complex van Gizeh’, maar na de vondst in beslag waren genomen door medewerkers van het Rockefeller Museum.
Volgens Shepard Ambellas, hoofdredacteur van de alternatieve nieuwssite Intellihub, staan op de voorwerpen aliens en UFO’s afgebeeld. De artefacten zouden zijn gevonden in een geheime ruimte achter de boekenkast van de egyptoloog. Petrie zou vlak voor zijn dood in 1942 bewijs hebben gevonden voor buitenaards leven op aarde, maar verstopte het materiaal in zijn woning in Jeruzalem.
Ambellas claimt dat sommige van de relikwieën zijn te zien in het Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology in Londen. Hij beweert ook dat in de woning twee gemummificeerde lichamen zijn gevonden van 1 meter 20 lang. In Afrika werden dwergen echter gezien als ‘hemelse wezens’ en in het Oude Egypte kregen ze hoge posities toegewezen (foto).
De mummies hebben een ‘langgerekte schedel, grote oogkassen en lange, dunne armen’. Bij de mummies zouden ‘zeer geavanceerde’ mechanische apparaten zijn gevonden, waaronder een gouden schijf met een doorzichtige bovenkant. De apparaten ‘zijn voorzien van onbekende symbolen’.
Ze doen denken aan de beroemde ‘helikopter-hiërogliefen’ die zijn gevonden in een tempel in Abydos. Op het stenen tablet met de hiërogliefen zijn afbeeldingen te zien van wat moderne vliegtuigen lijken te zijn.
Verschillende websites meldden in 2010 dat dr. Alaa El-Din Shaheen, decaan van de faculteit Archeologie van de Universiteit van Caïro, gezegd zou hebben dat de Egyptische piramides ‘niet van deze wereld zijn’. Later ontkende hij uitspraken te hebben gedaan over een link tussen aliens en de piramides.
Deep Earth Life Excites Extraterrestrial Life Researchers
Deep Earth Life Excites Extraterrestrial Life Researchers
Earth is commonly associated with green forests, blue oceans and animals that live in both. However, there’s a possibility too that Earth hosts another biosphere. Tiny microbial organisms could be living below the surface. This could also be the same with extraterrestrial life.
In a recent study published in the journal Nature, geoscientist Barbara Sherwood Lollar says that deep-Earth life environment could be far vaster than previously thought.
The idea that alien life could also be the same has received a sudden impact with the NASA’s announcement that Mars Curiosity rover had discovered a plume of methane that spiked and then dissipated on the red planet, an indication of microbial life.
Geochemist Lisa Pratt says that the new study and the new NASA’s discovery of the red planet suggest that scientists should begin searching for something that is different than the conventional cellular life, which researchers used to seeing and studying on Earth.
In 2006, Sherwood Lollar and Pratt announced through a Science paper about the discovery of bacteria living deep in a gold mine in South Africa, completely isolated from sunlight. These microbes managed to live deep in Earth by deriving their energy from hydrogen gas produced by water and the surrounding rock reactions. These microbes are estimated to have lived between three million and twenty-five million years.
Just last year, Sherwood Lollar also part of a team that discovered similar environment. They analyzed water in a mine in Timmins, Ontario with similar chemistry to the mine in South Africa. The team estimated that the water found in the Timmins mine was billions of years old. The site is still subject for further study to know if there’s microbial life living in it.
So, scientists and ordinary people are now curious about how many similar places in the planet host life. Furthermore, the possibility of dark life in the red planet provides exciting stuff among scientists and researchers.
Reports of strange phenomena absolutely abound throughout the English county of Staffordshire – which happens to be where I spent my childhood. But there is one place in Staffordshire that seems to attract a great deal more than its fair share of such activity. Its name is deeply familiar to one and all throughout the area as Castle Ring. Located near to the village of Cannock Wood, Castle Ring is an Iron Age structure commonly known as a Hill Fort. It is 801 feet above sea level, and it main ditch and bank enclosure is fourteen feet high and, at its widest point, 853 feet across.
It has to be admitted that very little is known about the mysterious and long-forgotten people who built Castle Ring, except to say that they were already in residence at the time of the Roman invasion of A.D. 43 and remained there until approximately A.D. 50. Some suggest that the initial foundations of Castle Ring may even have been laid as early as 500 B.C. Moreover, historians suggest that the creators of Castle Ring might have represented a powerful body of people that held firm sway over certain other parts of Staffordshire, as well as significant portions of both Shropshire and Cheshire at the time in question.
While its enigmatic builders exited our world millennia ago, and left us with very little solid knowledge of who they were or what they actually represented, Castle Ring can claim to play host to far stranger entities, as I will now demonstrate.
On May 1, 2004, Alec Williams was driving passed the car-park that sits at the base of Castle Ring when he witnessed a hair-covered, man-like entity lumber across the road and into the trees. A shocked Williams stated that the sighting lasted barely a few seconds, but that he was able to make out its amazing form: “It was about seven feet tall, with short, shiny, dark brown hair, a large head and had eyes that glowed bright red.” Interestingly, Williams stated that as he slowed his vehicle down, he witnessed something akin to a camera flash coming from the depths of the woods and heard a cry that he described as “someone going ‘Hoo.’”
Just over one year later, on June 8, 2005 to be precise, in an article titled Hunt For Dark Forces at Chase Monument, Chase Post newspaper journalist Sarah Taylor reported that “paranormal investigators are set to swoop on one of the area’s oldest monuments to find out what dark forces lie beneath it.” As the newspaper noted, “a team of real-life ghost-busters” had determined that the area of Gentleshaw that surrounds Castle Ring lay upon what was described as a “psychic fault.” Certainly, the whole area surrounding Castle Ring has been a hotbed of weird activity for years – and not all of it revolves around weird beasts.
For example, commenting on the mountain of strange activity at the Ring, Sue Penton – of Paranormal Awakening, a group affiliated to the Association for Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena – said: “There have been reports of strange music being heard up there. It is such a high place there have been lots of UFO sightings there, too.”
The comments of Sue Penton were echoed by Graham Allen, then of the Etchinghill, Rugeley-based Staffordshire UFO Group: “Obviously, Castle Ring is the highest point on the Chase which makes it a good place for UFO spotting. There have been numerous incidents of UFOs, which could be because you are more likely to see something from a high point.”
Graham Allen elaborated to the press on what he knew about the mysteries of Castle Ring: “There have been reports of something landing there in the 1960s. From a research point of view there are a high number of reports around ancient sites. One argument could be that ancient sites have been located there because of the incidents of UFOs and natural phenomenon. There could be locations where there could be magnetic influences in the ground which have been attributed to earth lights.”
Moreover, relatively close to Castle Ring is an old, disused windmill, which, it is widely believed by local folklorists, was built upon nothing less than an ancient, pagan burial ground. Ghosts of the miller’s children, who allegedly suffocated in a flour silo, are said to haunt the mill to this day, and legend tells of a strange black, humanoid figure that manifested just before the tragedy occurred. Could this perhaps have been the very same, dark figure that Alec Williams saw near Castle Ring in 2004?
Equally as strange are the reports that come from the nearby village of Cannock Wood – from which Castle Ring lies in a northwest direction – of a ghostly nun reported seen in the vicinity of an ancient well where water was once dutifully gathered by local villagers.
In September 2005, local media reported that the aforementioned Paranormal Awakening investigation group had recently completed a nighttime investigation of Castle Ring in an attempt to chronicle the strange activity that had been reported there for years. It was an investigation that proved to be immensely profitable.
A spokesperson for the group said, after the experience was completed: “The Cannock Chase local authorities were kind enough to give permission for PA to conduct its research. Indeed, we are extremely grateful to them for being so open-minded as to allow us to conduct our research at this historical and most important monument. The group’s results are stunning and have created yet more questions than we have answers. We appear to have obtained a very strange mix of UFO and genuine paranormal activity.”
As for the specific nature of that activity, this was made public midway through February 2006. The Chase Post elaborated on the revelations: “A paranormal investigations group say they have evidence of strange, dancing lights and ghostly figures at the area’s most ancient monument.” On one tape, said the Post, one of the group’s members is heard to exclaim: “Tell me that isn’t a big black shape walking towards me.” The Post added that: “A mystery make voice responds, ‘There is!’”
Lest we forget, large, walking, dark shapes and strange lights were both staple parts of Alec Williams’ May 2004 Bigfoot-like sighting at Castle Ring, too. But the story is far from over. In a future article I’ll highlight the most recent reports of high strangeness at Castle Ring, which are as creepy as they are monstrous…
It’s one thing for skeptics to dismiss a sighting of a UFO by a single individual, who might possibly be mistaken, delusional or simply a teller of tall tales. It’s more difficult, however, to disregard sightings in public places and a large number of witnesses. Here are 10 of the most prominent documented mass UFO sightings in U.S. history.
1. June 1, 1853: Luminous Objects Hover Over Tennessee College Campus. As the sun rose over the campus of Burritt College, numerous students—who apparently were early risers in those days, too—were startled to see two luminous objects in the sky. According to professor A.C. Carnes, who reported the incident in a letter to Scientific American, the first had the appearance of a small new moon, while the other resembled a large star. The small object then vanished, while the bigger one changed shape, first into a globe and then into an elongated shape parallel with the horizon. The smaller light then became visible again, and increased rapidly in size, while the other object shrank. The two objects continued fluctuating in a similar fashion for the next 30 minutes. “The students have asked for an explanation, but neither the President nor Professors are satisfied as to the character of the lights,” wrote Carnes. While he himself speculated that the occurrence might have been caused somehow by atmospheric moisture, the incident remains a mystery.
2. April 17, 1897: Purported UFO crash in Texas. At about 6 a.m. that morning, according to contemporaneous Dallas Morning News account, citizens of the small town of Aurora were awakened by the appearance of what the writer referred to as an “airship.” The craft reportedly malfunctioned and stalled, and crashed into a windmill on the property of a local judge, scattering debris over several acres. “The pilot of the ship is supposed to have been the only one aboard and, while his remains were badly disfigured, enough of the original has been picked up to show that he was not an inhabitant of this world,” according to the Morning News account. Skeptics long have dismissed the account as a hoax. But in 1973, a United Press International reporter located a 91-year-old resident, Mary Evans, who recalled her parents visiting the crash site, and telling her that the body of the UFO pilot had been buried in the town cemetery.
3. February 25, 1942: The Battle of Los Angeles. In the early morning hours, radar operators spotted an unidentified object 120 miles west of Los Angeles and watched anxiously as it zoomed to within a few miles of the southern California coast and then inexplicably vanished from their screens. Sometime after that, an artillery officer along the coast reported what he described as 25 aircraft flying at 25,000 feet, and a few minutes later, other observers saw a balloon-like object carrying what appeared to be flares over nearby Santa Monica. Then, anti-aircraft batteries spotted what witnesses later described as swarms of objects flying at various altitudes, at speeds of up to 200 miles per hour. Fearing that the city was under attack by the Japanese, they fired 1,400 rounds of ammunition at the bogeys. But apparently, none of them hit anything, because no wreckage subsequently was found. Officials initially ascribed the incident to a combination of a false alarm and mass hysteria. But UFOlogists have speculated over the years that the gunners might have been shooting at extraterrestrial spacecraft.
4. January 7, 1948: Saucer Appears Over Kentucky. Early in the afternoon, dozens of residents of the Madisonville, KY area telephoned police to report that they had seen what a news account later described as “a circular object hovering overhead and giving off a brilliant glow.” State police then alerted Air Force officials at Goodman Field, an air base at Fort Knox. 15 minutes later, the airfield’s tower crew spotted the UFO as well, and used the radio to ask a squadron of P-51 fighters already aloft to investigate. Squadron leader Capt. Thomas Mantell, Jr. an expert pilot who had won the Distinguished Flying Cross for bravery during World War II, responded that he had spotted the UFO and was in pursuit. “I’m closing in now to take a good look,” Mantell reported in his last radio transmission at 3:15 p.m. “The thing looks metallic, and is tremendous in size.” Three minutes later, Mantell crashed and was killed. The official conclusion was that he had run out of oxygen, but UFOlogists have long doubted that explanation.
5. November 2, 1957: Fiery Object Seen Over Texas. At about 11 p.m. that evening in the town of Levelland, TX, police received 15 frantic phone calls from local residents about a mysterious object in the sky. In an Associated Press account, one of the witnesses, a 30-year-old farm worker and Korean War veteran, described the object as a “flash of light” flying overhead with a rush of wind, and said that it had apparently caused the lights and engine of his truck to go dead. Other witnesses described the craft as blue-green and egg-shaped, and said that it abruptly morphed into a fireball before rising straight up and disappearing.
6. Dec. 9, 1965: The Kecksburg Incident. Numerous residents of the small Pennsylvania village about 40 miles from Pittsburgh saw an object that some witnesses described as streaking green fire across the sky before it crashed in a local field, just before 6 p.m. that evening. Local resident Bill Bulebush, who was working on his car when he saw the object, described it as acorn-shaped and about twice the size of a Volkswagen Beetle. He said that it glided slowing before making a U-turn and going down. A local fireman, James Romansky, later described the downed craft as having hieroglyphic-like writing around its bottom ring. He only got to examine the craft for about 15 minutes, before government and military officials arrived and ordered everyone from the scene, and posted armed guards around the perimeter. Subsequently, there was speculation that the object may have been a Soviet satellite, but UFO researcher Clifford Stone, who spoke years later to former Soviet officials, said they insisted that the object had not been one of theirs. After investigative journalist Leslie Keen filed a Freedom of Information Act suit, NASA revealed in 2009 that documentation on the case was missing.
7. March 24, 1983: V-Shaped Lights in the Hudson Valley. The suburban area, about an hour’s drive north of New York City, was the scene of more than 5,000 UFO sightings from 1982 through 1986, perhaps one of the biggest clusters of incidents in history. One night, March 24, stands out because of the sheer volume—more than 300 residents called a local UFO organization’s hotline that night, reporting that they had seen large v-shaped array of lights that moved slowly and almost silently through the sky. Some witnesses got close enough to say that the craft was big enough to be a “flying city.” Hunt Middleton, a local resident who had just stepped off a bus from New York City at 7:30 p.m., described a row of six or seven extremely bright lights. “They were all blinking on and off, and were red, blue, green and white. I knew it was not any type of conventional aircraft because the lights were stationary. It was just hovering there in the sky.” Middleton said that he watched the object for five minutes, before going inside his house to get his family to come out and see it. By then, it was gone.
8. March 13, 1997: The Phoenix Lights. On that evening, thousands of people in Nevada and Arizona reportedly saw what many described as an immense, V-shaped object outlined by seven lights. Others, however, reported seeing orbs and triangles in the sky as well. Police departments in Phoenix, Tempe, Glendale and other Arizona cities were jammed with calls from residents. One witness, a man in his thirties named Dana Valentine, said that he and his father both watched as the lights passed 500 feet directly above them. "We could see the outline of a mass behind the lights, but you
couldn't actually see the mass," Valentine says. "It was more like a gray distortion of the night sky, wavy. I don't know exactly what it was, but I know it's not a technology the public has heard of before." The military later claimed that National Guard pilots had released diversionary flares while on a training run, but not everyone accepted that explanation.
9. July 14, 2001: UFO on the New Jersey Turnpike. Multiple witnesses, including a local off-duty police officer, watched in wonder as an array of yellow lights flew in formation in suburban New Jersey near New York City late in the evening of July 14, 2001 into the early morning of the following day. A short time later, at around 12:30 a.m., another witness, Carteret police Lt. Dan Tarrant, reportedly received a call at home from his 19-year-old daughter, who was out with friends and had seen strange lights in the sky. Tarrant told the Record and ABC News that he then stepped outside to take a look. As Tarrant subsequently told ABC News, what he saw was astounding: “16 golden-orange colored lights, several in a V-type formation. Others were scattered around the V." Tarrant told the Record, a local newspaper, that the mysterious lights flashed across the sky for about 10 minutes, then faded one-by-one into darkness.
10. January 8, 2008: The Stephensville Lights. In the evening, about out 40 local residents, including a local amateur civilian pilot and a police officer, witnessed a UFO that hovered over the farming community for about five minutes before streaking away into the night sky. Police officer Lee Roy Gaitan told National Public Radio that he was walking to his car when he saw a luminous object that reminded him of pictures of erupting volcanos, suspended 3,000 feet in the air. Another witness estimated that the UFO was a half-mile wide, a mile long, and” bigger than a Wal-Mart.”

Why Do We See Faces And Mysterious Objects On The Surfaces of Other Planets?
Why Do We See Faces And Mysterious Objects On The Surfaces of Other Planets?
The brain has a way of seeing things that aren't really there, a way of taking random patterns and putting them into order to create a familiar shape.
This explains why we see a man in the moon, the Virgin Mary on a grilled cheese sandwich and, most recently, a coffin on the surface of Mars in a photo taken by the Mars Curiosity rover. And it's something we all do.
"If you take a baby just after a few minutes of life, he will direct his attention toward something that has the general features of a face versus something that has the same elements but in a random order," says Dr Nouchine Hadjikhani of Harvard University.
This phenomenon, called pareidolia, is something that happens often in the human brain, which basically means we make sense of the random by envisioning it as something familiar. And it's something we learned early on, as a species, and is part of our evolutionary history.
In 1995, American cosmologist Carl Sagan, attributed this recognition of familiar objects and faces as an early survival technique. For example, if one of our early ancestors saw a shape standing at the top of a hill, that shape could be either a rock or a predatory animal. Seeing that shape as a predatory animal, regardless of its true nature, resulted in the ancestor running, possibly saving a life.
A study published in 2010 suggests that identifying faces and familiar objects in something random helps us understand it. That study determined that our brains understand non-face objects as quickly as face objects, perhaps because of how we see them as faces.
Psychologists use this innate ability with the Rorschach inkblot tests, which is a series of random inkblot patterns painted onto cards. Psychologists gain insight into the minds of their patients by asking them what faces and/or objects they see when viewing the cards.
(Photo : NASA) After zooming in on a recent image taken by the Mars Curiosity rover, many people saw what appeared as a coffin on the surface of the red planet.
However, many people believe the things they see when pareidolia kicks in. For example, when a recent image from the Mars Curiosity rover showed an object that resembled a coffin, the image became one of the most shared photos on social media and conspiracy theorists started speculating about the existence of aliens on the red planet.
Unfortunately, it's unlikely that the shape in the image is a coffin or that E.T. will start popping up in Curiosity's selfies. But that knowledge doesn't stop those who truly believe in what they see.
"In reality, UFO enthusiasts just spend far too much time searching Nasa images for the slightest glimpse of anything weird and finding proof that fits their own ideas," says Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual. "In addition to the discovery of this coffin, way back in March 2014 'Truthseeker' posted on Youtube a picture taken by the Curiosity rover that seemed to show a cross, which he thought was connected to a religious ceremonial religious structure."
So the next time you make toast and see the President's face, just remember, it's probably just pareidolia.
Who knew UFO Sightings for 2014 for New York would be continuing an upward trend?
Typically the New York winter months are cold weather with overcast skies, this usually impacts the number of UFO sightings in our lovely state. Surprisingly, January and February sightings logged this year were double the usual amount for the dead of winter. Both national reporting databases showed higher than normal amounts of bright fire ball type UFOs.
March and April sightings were about 25% above normal levels. May, June July, were at the usual levels, but August and September turned out to be the high season for sightings this year, with 13% above normal sighting levels. Add to that October was 59% higher than is common. Finally, November and December were at customary sighting counts for the holiday season.
The real surprise was the final count for the year topping out at around 540 sightings. This new level of UFO sightings in the state continues a six year upward trend, with 2010 and 2012 being statistical spikes.
UFO Sightings for 2014, wouldn’t be complete without some world sighting numbers, December sightings are up 31% over November. Over all global sightings are up 6% over 2013, and a quick look at the New York yearly trend charts suggests New York is on par with the global upward growth of reported UFO sightings.

Strange 'Shape-Shifting' UFO Witnessed Over Sydney
Strange 'Shape-Shifting' UFO Witnessed Over Sydney
A strange 'shape-shifting' object has been seen hovering over Sydney.
The video was taken just two days ago and shows a shimmering UFO floating through the sky.
The video was taken by UFO enthusiast Lazlo Novak who uses a combination of webcams and his infrared camera to capture what he believes might be suspicious activity.
This particular object was captured using Lazlo's IR camera with the enthusiast putting forward the theory that this meant the UFO was only visible to IR light.
Well we have no explanation ...other than that this could well be a fake so it's either that or it really is an unidentified flying object.
Eagle-eyed UFO spotters noticed the eerie green light hovering above the London Eye during BBC New Year's Eve coverage.
Presumed sightings of the strange and unusual are not uncommon at this time of year, thanks to the popularity of Chinese lanterns.
Spotted: The mysterious green light makes its way over the London Eye
But this unexplained craft flies in an unusual arc from behind the London tourist attraction, and then flies towards the opposite side of the River Thames.
The footage, posted on YouTube, prompted wide speculation whether or not it was an alien device - some argued it could just be a drone.
UFO expert Nigel Watson told Metro: "What strikes me is that whether the UFO is a camera drone or not it catches your attention despite all the fireworks blasting off all around it.
The meteor was seen from Maine to as far south as Maryland with the meteor believed to have struck somewhere in the eastern half of New York State.
The American Meteor Society immediately set up a report for the incident creating a live map which shows where and when the sightings took place.
While many took to Twitter to share what they saw, some had even managed to capture the event using smartphones or Dash Cams that were installed in their cars.
