Eyewitness states:
My wife was coming home from work on 25W in south Corbin,Ky. As she drove she took about 5 pics of the sunrise. When she arrived at home we looked at her pics of the sunrise. I noticed the object in about the 4th pic. She snapped these pics with her cell phone about every 20 to 30 seconds. The object was not in any of the previous or following pics. It must have been moving very fast. At first the objects looked like puffs of smoke but I noticed that they have structure and Windows. It looks as if the objects have a fuzzy shroud around their exterior. At no time was my wife ever aware of these objects. I thought it was really good UFO pic and I've looked at a ton of UFO pics. Thank you for this submission.

A UFO Apparently Landed On Fire In London Road

A UFO apparently crashed in the middle of the road. It was seen on fire and concerned witnesses reprted it to Kingston Police. The police force has encouraged anyone with the knowledge about the bizarre object to come forward.

On October 17, Kingston Police posted a report about the subject matter on its Facebook page. It says that around midnight, a concerned citizen called them on 999 saying there was an unusual item on fire in the road.

London Fire Brigade and Emergency Response Team were dispatched to the scene. When they arrived in the area, they couldn’t believe what they had witnessed. The responding officers described the item as similar to a crash-landed UFO.

The police, on a serious note, asked anyone who has information about the object and how it ended that way to contact them on 101 and quote CAD: 525/17OCT15.

But many commenters of the Facebook post have brought Earthly speculation about the object. They said that the blue and red item wasn’t an alien object, but an upside-down pizza oven.

Shocking Comments About UFO Technology

(Before It's News)

Shocking Comments About UFO Technology

It’s quite remarkable how many verified statements we have regarding UFOs (unidentified flying objects) and extraterrestrials from people who have held the highest positions possible within the government, military, academia, politics and more. To be honest, it’s overwhelming, and when you put all of those statements together with all of the previously classified documentation that has been released over the past few years, it paints a startling picture. Anybody who has done even a fair amount of research, and adheres to the philosophy of “condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance,” would not be able to deny this, and I have yet to come across someone who has done the research that still subjects this topic to the “conspiracy theory” realm.

1) Ben Rich

Rich was the second director of Lockheed Skunkwork’s from 1975-1991. He’s been called the Father of Stealth, having overseen the development of the stealth fighter, the F-117A nighthawk. Before his death, Rich made several shocking open statements about the reality of UFOs and extraterrestrials.

“We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects, and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity. Anything you can imagine, we already know how to do it.”

“We now have technology to take ET home. No it won’t take someone’s lifetime to do it. There is an error in the equations. We know what it is. We now have the capability to travel to the stars.”

“There are two types of UFOs — the ones we build and the ones ‘they’ build.”

When Rich was asked how UFO propulsion worked, he said, “Let me ask you. How does ESP work?” The questioner responded with, “All points in time and space are connected?” Rich then said, “That’s how it works!”

2)James Goodall

James Goodall knew Ben Rich well. In a video interview, Goodall stated that he spoke to Rich approximately 10 days before he died:

“About ten days before he died, I was speaking to Ben on the telephone at the USC Medical Center in LA. And he said, ‘Jim, we have things out in the desert that are fifty years beyond what you can comprehend. They have about forty five hundred people at the Lockheed Skunk works. What have they been doing for the last eighteen or twenty years? They’re building something.’”

3)John Andrews

Who was a legendary Lockheed engineer. He had written to Rich, stating his own belief in UFOs, both manmade and extraterrestrial. Andrews has asked Rich if his own beliefs covered extraterrestrial as well as manmade UFOs. Rich’s reply was as follows:

“Yes, I’m a believer in both categories. I feel everything is possible. Many of our man-made UFOs are Un-Funded Opportunities. There are two types of UFOs, the ones we build, and the ones they build.”

4)Jan Harzan

A senior executive with IBM, along with Tom Keller, an aerospace engineer who has worked as a computer systems analyst for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, discusses a talk Ben gave some time ago. On March 23rd, 1993 at a UCLA School of Engineering talk where he was presenting a general history of Sunk Works, he said this:

“We now know how to travel to the stars. There is an error in the equations, and we have figured it out, and now know how to travel to the stars and it won’t take a lifetime to do it. It is time to end all the secrecy on this, as it no longer poses a national security threat, and make the technology available for use in the private sector. There are many in the intelligence community who would like to see this stay in the black and not see the light of day. We now have the technology to take ET home.”

5)Bill McDonalds

A forensic illustrator for the aerospace industry, and a good friend of John Andrews (mentioned above). He stated that:

“It was Ben Rich’s opinion that the public should not be told. He believed they could not handle the truth, ever. Only in the last months of his decline did he begin to feel that the international corporate Board of Directors’ dealing with the ‘Subject’ could represent a bigger problem to citizens’ personal freedoms under the United States Constitution than the presence of off world visitors themselves.”

“Buitenaardse techniek gaat onze aardbol ingrijpend veranderen”

Onlangs werd met de Kepler-telescoop een wel heel vreemde ster gevonden in de Melkweg. Volgens Jason Wright, een gerespecteerde astronoom van de Penn State University, is het aannemelijk dat een buitenaardse beschaving een gigantische structuur heeft gebouwd die verantwoordelijk is voor het ongewone gedrag van de ster.

En pas geleden stelde de Russische miljardair Joeri Milner 100 miljoen dollar ter beschikking voor onderzoek naar buitenaards leven. Het project is volgens initiatiefnemers Milner en natuurkundige Stephen Hawking het grootste wetenschappelijke project ooit voor het ontdekken van intelligent leven buiten de aarde.

De Canadese ex-minister Paul Hellyer gaat nog een stapje verder. Hij beweert dat buitenaardse techniek onze aardbol ingrijpend zal veranderen.

‘Veel te veel om af te doen als onzin’

Volgens voormalig lucht- en ruimtevaartdocent van de TU Delft Coen Vermeeren zijn ‘ze’ er al. Hij gelooft dat de aliens vredelievend zijn en de mensheid verder kunnen helpen. De wetenschapper schreef in 2013 het boek UFO’s bestaan gewoon, waarna hij naar eigen zeggen veel reacties kreeg van mensen die het fijn vonden dat hun waarnemingen en ideeën eindelijk serieus worden genomen.

Keihard wetenschappelijk bewijs ontbreekt, maar Vermeeren wijst erop dat er de laatste 60 jaar veel UFO-meldingen zijn gedaan door getrainde waarnemers zoals piloten, astronauten en militair personeel. “Er is video- en fotomateriaal, er zijn radarbeelden, er zijn talloze getuigenverklaringen: het is gewoon veel te veel om af te doen als onzin,” zegt hij.

Robin de Boer, hoofdredacteur van Ninefornews.nl, merkt dat de groep mensen die verder wil kijken dan hemel en aarde gestaag groeit. Uit peilingen in onder meer Groot-Brittannië blijkt dat inmiddels meer dan de helft van de mensen gelooft in intelligent buitenaards leven. Dat was 20 jaar geleden wel anders.

‘We worden warm gemaakt voor het buitenaardse’

“De NASA komt met de ene na de andere spannende onthulling, variërend van de aanwezigheid van water op Mars tot ijs op Pluto. Dat is spectaculair,” vertelt De Boer aan het AD. “En vooraanstaande astronomen beweren dat we binnen nu en een generatie intelligent buitenaards leven zullen ontdekken. We worden dus langzamerhand warm gemaakt voor het buitenaardse.”

Je wordt nu nog vaak belachelijk gemaakt en sociaal uitgesloten als je beweert dat je UFO’s hebt gezien, aldus Vermeeren. Daar zal volgens hem pas verandering in komen als er serieus wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar dit fenomeen wordt gedaan en als overheden minder krampachtig informatie over UFO’s onder de pet houden.

Raadsel van gigantisch ruimteschip boven Engeland nog steeds niet opgelost ( VIDEO)

Honderden mensen waren getuige van een van de meest spectaculaire UFO-waarnemingen ooit boven Engels grondgebied.

Een enorme driehoekige UFO die op enkele honderden meters over een aantal Engelse luchtmachtbases vloog.

Gedurende de laatste twee dagen van maart 1993 vonden er massaal UFO-waarnemingen plaats in Engeland, wat bekend geworden is onder de naam Cosford Incident.

Een serie waarnemingen die begonnen met de eerste in Somerset op 30 maart om 20.30, gevolgd door een tweede in een plaats die Quantock Hills heet om 21.00.

In de dagen daarna werden deze waarnemingen gevolgd door honderden meldingen van lokale bewoners bij politie en leger.

Daarnaast is het later bevestigd dat er waarnemingen zijn gedaan door nog veel meer mensen uit alle geledingen van de maatschappij, zoals politie, militairen en burgers, zonder dat zij hier ooit officiëel melding van hebben gedaan bij de autoriteiten.

Bij de grote meerderheid van de waarnemingen betrof het een driehoekig object met witte lichten op iedere hoek. Veel van de meldingen betrof die van mensen die de UFO van heel dichtbij hebben gezien, op een afstand van 70 tot 150 meter boven de grond.

Een van de meest fascinerende verslagen kwam van een gezin in Staffordshire die het object zo laag zagen vliegen dat ze op een gegeven moment dachten dat deze in het veld was geland.

Zij beschreven het object als driehoekig of in de vorm van een diamant. Nadat ze dachten dat het was geland, sprongen ze in hun auto en reden naar de plek waar ze dachten dat het was neergekomen. Helaas hebben ze daar niets kunnen vinden.

Ze omschreven het als: “Een laag brommend geluid, een geluid met een hele lage frequentie”. Ze zeiden dat je niet alleen het geluid hoorde, maar het ook kon voelen, net zoals je dat doet als je voor een bas-speaker staat.

De UFO vloog laag over twee militaire bases, RAF Cosford en RAF Shawbury. Bij Cosford werd het tenminste door drie mensen gezien die een patrouille liepen. Deze dienden onmiddellijk een standaard rapport in, wat gebruikelijk is wanneer ze iets ongewoons zien dat niet als militair bekend staat.

Ze controleerden de radar, maar daar was niets zichtbaar. Er stond voor die avond ook niets op het programma; geen militaire noch burgertoestellen werden verwacht.

Er werd een uitgebreid onderzoek ingesteld naar mogelijke radarbeelden en vreemd genoeg bleek een van de primaire radarsystemen niet goed te werken. Dit kwam omdat er iets was uitgezet, wat per ongeluk gedaan zou kunnen zijn of niet natuurlijk. Omdat het gebeurd was net voordat de UFO verscheen, kon er niet veel informatie uit de radarbeelden worden gehaald.

Ze belden vervolgens naar de andere basis, RAF Shawbury, die ongeveer 20 kilometer verderop lag. De meteoroloog van de basis nam de telefoon op. Hij was een man met zo’n acht jaar ervaring en hij had buiten naar de lucht staan te kijken in verband met zijn meteorologische rapport voor de volgende dag.

Tot zijn stomme verbazing zag hij een vreemd object in de lucht dat hij omschreef als meer dan 70 meter lang. Verder zei hij dat het een soort kruising was tussen een Hercules C-130 toestel en een Boeing 747. Het object vloog direct over de basis en ook hij hoorde een soort brommend geluid.

Er was echter nog een aspect aan het verslag van de meteoroloog en dat was dat hij zei een straal licht waar te nemen vanuit het object, gericht naar de grond, net buiten het hek dat de basis omringd. Het licht zwaaide in een bundel heen en weer alsof het naar iets zocht op de grond.

Na een tijdje werd het licht gedoofd en verdween de UFO. De snelheid waarmee het verdween was heel laag, niet meer dan ongeveer 50 kilometer per uur. Daarna schoot de UFO als het ware ineens weg met een formidabele snelheid.

Het incident van Cosford, een raadsel dat tot op vandaag nog steeds niet is opgelost.

UFO's hangen hele dag boven Moskou, Rusland ( video)

Het lijkt alsof ook buitenaardsen zich zorgen maken over de snel verslechterende toestand op deze aarde.

Waren ze misschien op bezoek bij Vladimir Poetin of was er een andere reden dat ze de hele dag boven Moskou hingen?

Alles houdt verband met elkaar en er gebeurt absoluut niets zonder toeval. Dat is wat onwillekeurig door je hoofd schiet wanneer je een aantal recente UFO-waarnemingen bekijkt.

Je krijgt meer en meer het gevoel dat buitenaardsen zich nu aardig zorgen beginnen te maken over de ontwikkelingen op deze wereld en er niet meer gerust op zijn dat het ook dit keer allemaal wel los zal lopen.

Nu zullen er ongetwijfeld kosmische wetten zijn waaraan ze zich moeten houden zoals het zich niet actief bemoeien met de gebeurtenissen op andere planeten, behalve misschien als consequenties effect zouden hebben op het hele zonnestelsel of zelfs daar buiten.

Versterkt door de Russische president Poetin die waarschuwt tegen de gevaren van een nucleaire oorlog waarbij er geen winnaars zullen zijn, hoewel er op deze wereld toch een aantal mensen zijn die er geen moeite mee hebben om dit soort wapens te gebruiken omdat ze denken dat ze daarmee de wereldheerschappij kunnen afdwingen.

Wat natuurlijk niemand weet, behalve misschien buitenaardsen die dit soort scenarios elders in het universum hebben meegemaakt, is wat voor gevolgen het gebruik van dit soort wapens in de praktijk zal hebben.

Het enige vergelijkingsmateriaal dat we hebben zijn enkele nucleaire bommen die tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog op Japan werden gegooid.

Sinds die tijd zijn de wapens zoveel krachtiger en zo talrijk geworden dat het niet alleen meer dan voldoende is om zo goed als alle leven op deze planeet weg te vagen, maar misschien worden de opgeroepen krachten zo groot dat dit ook gevolgen heeft voor onze mede universum-bewoners.

Met dat alles in het achterhoofd is wat er een maand geleden gebeurd is in het Russische Moskou toch wel merkwaardig te noemen.

een zekere gewenning is ontstaan met betrekking tot alle UFO’s die overal ter wereld opduiken voor een korte tijd en dan meestal weer net zo snel verdwijnen als ze zijn gekomen.

In Moskou was dat op 21 september 2015 echter anders want daar verschenen enkele UFO’s die boven de stad bleven hangen van zonsopkomst tot zonsondergang.

Zo zag het eruit boven de stad:

Volgens ufoloog Scott Waring zijn dit soort ronde gloeiende UFO’s meermalen de afgelopen maand waargenomen boven de Amerikaanse staten Florida en Ohio.

Hij zegt ook dat hier iets bijzonders aan de hand moet zijn omdat dit soort laagvliegende UFO’s normaal gesproken een gevaar kunnen opleveren voor de luchtvaart.

Zou het kunnen zijn dat ze zich nu langer en op andere manieren aan ons gaan vertonen om de mensheid te laten weten dat de klok voor de wereldwaanzin op enkele minuten voor twaalf staat?

Zoals Scott zegt: “Blijf naar de lucht kijken want ze kunnen zich zomaar op die manier bij jou in de buurt vertonen.

Photographs From Apollo Project Apparently Contain Evidence Of Alien Life

nasa-ufo

It might be a small piece of proof, but the incredible images have caused extraterrestrial hunters to think something big. Earlier this week, NASA released new pictures of the Apollo moon missions, which astonished the world.

But no one got more excited than the online UFO spotters, who recently claimed the images featured smoking evidence of extraterrestrial life.

Alien researchers on the internet pointed out that there were at least three separate UFOs in the Apollo photos. They claimed the Apollo 17 mission went to the moon along with an ET craft.
Also identified in the pictures was a UFO with dangling arms that apparently looking towards the Apollo lander.

The UFO had a metallic look and seemed to have a window facing the Apollo team. It’s considered as the amazing find and UFO hunters just don’t see the reason NASA doesn’t go into detail about the massive amount of proof that the public is posting.

UFO hunters also highlighted the presence of an array of pyramids and alien faces on the Moon’s surface. Those believers of the conspiracy theory, which says that the human moon landings were hoaxes, now got confused if we really landed on the moon.

Comprehensive Information About The Search For Extraterrestrial Life In A Quick Look

Our solar system may contain some form of life as hopes are high on Jupiter’s moon Europa and other few bodies within the system. The ET life that scientists hope to discover shortly may not be intelligent life at all. However, that doesn’t mean there’s no intelligent life somewhere within our galaxy or beyond.

Karl Tate released a new infographic on Space.com detailing our search for alien life starting in 1960 with astronomer Frank Drake’s Project Ozma, which looked to scan our skies for radio signals from other planets.

Aliens Killing Human Beings

Along the way, the infographic highlights Drake’s equation for estimating the number of civilizations in the galaxy, which might be between 2 and 280 million. It discusses a mysterious radio signals received in 1977 that then eventually called the “Wow! Signal.” Furthermore, it talks about whether our effort to contact aliens using messaging to extraterrestrial intelligence (METI) is a good idea. After all, we don’t know who might receive our intergalactic telephone call.

The graphic also features several sci-fi images, such as star-wrapping Dyson spheres from “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and the habitable ring from 1970 novel “Ringworld,” by Larry Niven. The presentation attempts to illustrate that radio waves may not be the only path to identify extraterrestrial life outside our solar system. Finding structures may also help to meet intelligent beings.

Also presented is the Kardashev scale, a suppositional way of ranking how advanced the beings from other planets might be on a scale from those who can beam radio waves to those who can take advantage of resources in the entire universe.

Lastly, the infographic presents the question – where is everybody? For the answer, check the info below!

Airliner Sees UFO Mothership Meeting With Smaller Craft Over Ocean, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Did you notice the red light at its end? Also there were two other glimmers of light father back.
The right side of the UFO is visible above, the left side is semi-cloaked.

Date of sighting: 7-19-2015, but submitted today.
Location of sighting: Between LA and Maui.
Source: MUCON #71817

In this submitted video, we see two UFOs. One large one that is a semi-cloaked disk, the other is much smaller below it. The large UFO turns fast to set itself over the smaller one so that it can pull it inside of its cargo bay. Also, did you see the glimmer of light on its right side? Two white glimmers farther back and a red one. A signal to the other craft below.

Eyewitness states:
On plane coming from Maui left at night going to Seattle; probably saw it right at dawn. The event did not take place in LA, CA, but hard to know when we are in an airplane. My daughter in window seat saw it first, let me know and I saw a smoke trail with a red light then the light went out. She first took a pic and then took video. When the object turns there are no wings and my husband said it's probably a missle? We were going 500 mph at 6 to 6.5 miles up in the air. Her pic and video is attached, I couldn't get video turned.

Megalithic Evidence That Cusco Existed Before The Incas, Oct 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of video: Oct 23, 2015
Location of ruins: Cusco, Peru

Here is an interesting theory. DanielofDoria02 of Youtube says he believes that the Incas built around a previous construction that they found, reinforcing it with their own added stones. That the giant Basalt carved square rocks were created from a much more ancient and advanced society. Perhaps even ancient aliens.

I have to admit, it does look like it at first glance and it also makes a lot of sense. Tell us your thoughts on this in comments below.

Three images that prove the Ancient Builders of Puma Punku had access to advanced technology

Puma Punku is a place where one loses the notion of space and time. This temple complex located near Tiwanaku, Bolivia is one of the most incredible ancient ruins you will find in South America.

Perhaps the biggest mystery involving Puma Punku is, how ancient mankind managed to transport these huge blocks of stone from quarries within 10 to 100 km. How did they manage to achieve this type of precision cuts and how did they place the blocks in such a perfect manner. Engineers and constructors around the world today cannot answer nor replicate these achievements done by ancient mankind thousands of years ago. Archaeologists cannot come to a conclusion and answer how were these amazing blocks of stone transported. Some of them believe that it was accomplished by the large labor force of ancient Tiwanaku. Several theories have been proposed as to how this labor force transported the stones from the quarries to Puma Punku but these theories remain speculative.

Another puzzling mystery at Puma Punku is the assembly of the walls. Each stone was finely cut to interlock with the surrounding stones and the blocks fit together like a puzzle, forming load-bearing joints without the use of mortar. The precision challenges today’s engineering abilities.

The answer to these and other enigmas can be answered by a different approach and different thinking methods.

By looking at images from Puma Punku you can notice a perfection that is baffling, you will notice elegance in every single construction at Puma Punku, but most importantly, you will notice a mysterious pattern that could help explain how ancient man achieved all of this thousands of years ago.

This image is one of the best examples of advanced technology present at Puma Punku. We are looking at andesite blocks, a material that is extremely difficult to work with. Can anyone explain how ancient mankind managed such perfection, elegance and precision? We believe that this is one of the best examples of highly advanced tools that were made available to ancient man, thousands of years ago.

One of our favorite images of Puma Punku where you can see small holes that are placed with such perfection apart that it is hard to believe that primitive man achieved this with sticks and stones.

Puma Punku is one of the most important places if you want to see what ancient man was capable of. These stone structures are among the biggest ever found.

The H Blocks. A trademark of Puma Punku and perhaps one of the best examples of lost technology. The perfection present within these blocks is staggering. It is difficult to even think that ancient mankind managed to cut, transport and stack these blocks of stone which such perfection without the use of some sort of technology. Not everything can be achieved through force.

What do you think? Is it possible that the ancient builders of Puma Punku and Tiahuanaco had access to advanced technology that has been lost in history? A forgotten, omitted piece of history that mainstream scholars do not seem to be interested in?

Sign of alien life? Kepler telescope spots strange star

By Fox News

A distant star is getting a lot of attention from astronomers — possibly as a sign that alien life is out there.

The star KIC 8462852 was discovered through Planet Hunters, a citizen science program at Yale University. Taking data from the Kepler Space Telescope, volunteers go searching for signs of a drop in light due to orbiting exoplanets crossing in front of their parent stars.

KIC 8462852 is 1,481 light years away from Earth. A light year measures the astronomical distance that light travels in one year and is equivalent to 5.8 trillion miles. Yale University astronomer Tabetha Boyajian, who wrote a paper on the star that appeared in the Monthly Notes of the Royal Astronomical Society, told the New Scientist that she was drawn to the star’s flickering behavior.

Related: NASA’s Kepler Mission Discovers Earth’s Older, Bigger Cousin

She then sent her data to Penn State University astronomer Jason Wright, who has done research on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

He was impressed.

“That was when I got interested in it because the light curve is so bizarre,” Wright told FoxNews.com. “It gets dimmer for days at a time. We haven’t seen anything quite like this.”

Wright said such behavior has been seen in young stars. Such flickering in young stars, he said, could be from something landing on the star, a disc of material passing in front of it as well as something like the “recent discovery of a giant planet with enormous rings and it very slowly, over the course of a month or two, passed in front of its star and the star kept flickering, blinking out as the rings went by.”

But KIC 8462852 is not young.

“This seems to be old. It doesn’t show any signs of youth. It is nowhere near a place that stars form,” Wright said.

“It’s moving too quickly to be a young star. It doesn’t look young,” he said. “So, that gets rid of all the natural, obvious things. Then, you start reaching for contrived ways to do this to an old star.”

Related: Cassini Gets Close Encounter With Saturn’s Moon Enceladus

In her paper, Boyajian, according to the Atlantic, ruled out a number of scenarios for the odd flickering, including instrument malfunction. She came up with only one scenario that made sense — a sea of comets pulled inwards by another passing star.

Wright said this is a “nice but contrived explanation” — and something that would have been incredibly hard for planet hunters to have noticed.

“We just happened to be looking when a giant swarm of enormous comets is passing by,” he said. “Maybe. Something weird is going on. This may be the best explanation I’ve heard so far.”

Another possibility is that the flickering is a sign of alien life, a swarm of megastructures built by space creatures passing in front of the star.

Such a scenario was first proposed in 2005 by astronomer Luke Arnold.

“If alien civilizations do build giant structures, planet-sized structures in space, sometimes they will pass in front of their star and it will look different from when a planet transits the star,” Wright told FoxNews.com. “If Kepler surveyed 100,000 stars and one of those is surrounded by alien megastructures, Kepler will notice them. They won’t look like a planet. They will look very different.”

Wright said it was “notable” that KIC 8462852 has these “very strange signatures that presumably are consistent with giant noncircular structures going in front of it.”

But Wright added that the flickering of KIC 8462852 is “unlikely to be aliens.”

“But you have got to look,” he said. “It’s got us intrigued and it’s worth it for SETI [Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence] to take a look because that is what SETI does. SETI is a moon shot, a long shot … You have to try and this is one of the best places to look.”

With a clear explanation elusive, Boyajian is now teaming up to write a proposal with Wright and Andrew Siemion, director of the SETI Research Center at the University of California Berkeley. They would like to direct a huge radio dish at the star to see if it emits radio waves of the “sort that could only be emitted by artificial technology.”

“If you see radio emissions of the sort that we’ll look for with this antennae coming from that star, then that is case closed,” Wright said, comparing such a discovery to something out of the movie “Contact.” “There is no natural way to generate those. That is why they do it. It’s a slam-dunk case for alien intelligence.”

Former Air Force pilot witnessed UFO crash, saw the crew and they were not human

Pilot Robert Willingham was an air force colonel. He said he saw a UFO crash near the border with Mexico in 1955 while piloting a F86 of the air force.

He was there with three other jets following a B47 boeing. They were having a bombing drill flying over El Paso, Texas.

Then they received a call of distant alert and they said they registered a UFO on the radar. The UFO was flying over the North-West area of the U.S and was moving to the South.

Minutes later they saw the UFO and it was an object as bright as a star traveling at a speed of 3200 km per hour. Then the UFO turned 90 degrees to the South-West and never stopped.

While Colonel Willingham requested permission to follow the object while it was moving to the border with Mexico he saw that the UFO had already crashed in Mexican territory when he was flying over Launtry so he went back to the military base of Carswell.

After being returned to the base he requested an airplane to go back there with Jack Perkin and saw that the area was surrounded by Mexican military forces until the U.S. forces arrived.

Colonel Willingham said he not only saw the UFO but he also saw the crew of this saucer shaped UFO and they were not human.

What you didn't know about the First spacewalk: A historical achievement that nearly ended in traged

50 years ago the first spacewalk nearly ended in tragedy, the story behind the historical moment which changed the way we look at space is fascinating and here we have the details.

During the so-called space-race between the USSR and the United States, the competition was fierce and both the USSR and the United States wanted to be the first to make it to the moon, to space in general… In order to conquer space, many steps were required but above all, courage was needed, a courage that would give those chosen once, the space adventure of their life time.

On March 18, 1965, Russian Cosmonaut Alexey Leonov had an adventure of a lifetime as he stepped outside the Voskhod-2 spaceship to float in space: the first spacewalk in human history which opened many doors for future space exploration. With this great achievement, Leonov became the first human to ever ‘walk’ in space, observing planet Earth from a distance of 500 kilometers.

The First Space Walk a dangerous attempt with a happy ending. Image credit: March 26, 1965, Vol. 85, No. 13

The truth about this historical moment is fascinating and could have very well ended in a tragedy that could have changed the way we look at space exploration forever. In 1965, Leonov was celebrated by the USSR as a hero, the Cosmonaut who gave them a strategic advantage over their competitor, the United States.

On that historic day, Leonov stepped out of the spaceship attached by a 5.35 meter-long cable, remaining in space for a period of over ten minutes. When everything seemed alright, luck proved how unpredictable it was. Leonov had a very simple mission while in space: Attach a camera to the airlock, film his spacewalk with a camera mounted on the front of the spacesuit and… survive. Leonov managed almost all three objectives expect the second one. It was impossible for Leonov to document his spacewalk since his spacesuit inflated like a balloon which prevented him from reaching the shutter-switch located on his thigh.

The first human spacewalk was an extraordinary and dangerous attempt. Until then, no one knew what it was like, what to expect and how things would turn out. According to medical reports, Leonov’s core body temperature rose 1.8 degrees Celsius in just 20 minutes, nearly causing a heat stroke. Leonov floated inside his space suit.

The BBC reports Leonov’s recollections of the critical moment:

      “My suit was becoming deformed. My hands had slipped out of the gloves [and] my feet came out of the boots. The suit felt loose around my body. I had to do something. I couldn’t pull myself back using the cord. And what’s more, with this misshapen suit, it would be impossible to fit through the airlock.”

A Victory that nearly ended in defeat

As Leonov’s spacesuit bloated and stiffened in the vacuum, it was too large to fit through the airlock. Leonov opened an oxygen valve slowly, depressurizing his suit until it became small enough to allow him to squeeze into the spacecraft. The problems however, did not end once he was inside the spacecraft. Once the inflatable airlock was ejected it sent the spacecraft into an extremely dangerous spin, to add to the misery of the situations, a malfunction within the spacecraft sent oxygen levels up, a very risky situation for the cosmonauts. A single spark could have caused an explosion destroying the entire spacecraft.

In an interview with RT, former cosmonaut Alexey Leonov reflects on the dangers during the first human spacewalk:

“I keep going over the mission and I keep finding mistakes that could have been avoided. They could have led to tragedy, everything was on the edge. We were thrown to an altitude of 495 kilometers by an error, it [was]...200 kilometers higher than planned. And it so happened that we were flying some 5 kilometers below the radiation layer.”

“The sheer size of the Earth, space. We don’t understand it on the ground. Only there you can comprehend space. While from inside the spacecraft cosmonauts could see only a small fraction of the scenery, outside “the stars and the sun are everywhere… I did not expect all this.

The silence struck me. I could hear my heart beating so clearly. I could hear my breath – it even hurt to think. The heavy breaths were looped via microphones and broadcast to Earth.”

Wat speelt zich in hemelsnaam af bij ster KIC 8462852?

Wetenschappers hebben nog nooit zoiets als dit gezien. De dipjes in de onderstaande grafiek zouden zelfs kunnen aantonen dat er rond de ster KIC 8462852 aliens zweven. Andere verklaringen zijn er ook, maar daar is net zo veel bewijs voor als voor 't alienverhaal. Namelijk geen. En dat is spannend.

Maar wij zijn geen wetenschappers, dus we snappen net zo veel van deze grafiek als jij, misschien zelfs minder. Daarom vroegen we sterrenkundige Lucas Ellerbroek wat deze ontdekking nou precies inhoudt.

Yale University

Hierboven is de helderheid van de ster KIC 8462852 in een grafiek gezet. Als je ter hoogte van de 1.0000 een horizontale lijn naar rechts trekt, heb je de gemiddelde helderheid van de ster. De uitschieters naar boven bewijzen dat een ster helderder is, die naar onder logischerwijs dat 'ie minder helder is.

Het punt bij de KIC 8462852 is dat er geen peil op te trekken is wanneer de ster helder is en wanneer niet. En dat is bij álle andere sterren die we tot nu toe hebben ontdekt wel het geval. Heel simpel gezegd is dit hoe een grafiek van een 'normale' ster eruitziet:

Exoplanet Musings

Uit de grafiek hierboven kun je opmaken dat er om de twee dagen een planeet rond de ster draait, want je ziet dat er dan een dipje in de helderheid zit. Het probleem bij de KIC 8462852 is dat er geen enkel patroon te ontdekken is.

"Dat betekent niet per se dat er nu dan buitenaards leven is ontdekt, maar het kan. Er is namelijk net zo veel bewijs voor álle andere opties, als voor de optie aliens: geen", zegt Lucas. "Wetenschappers kunnen geen andere verklaringen uit het boekje halen, dus blijven alle opties open."

Aliens?

De Kepler-telescoop heeft geregistreerd dat de ster zo nu en dan zelfs 22 procent in helderheid afneemt. "Dat zou betekenen dat er iets gigantisch tussen de ster en de Kepler in hangt. Maar wat is er dan zo groot? Dat is een van de vragen waar nu een antwoord op wordt gezocht."

Radio in de ruimte

Wetenschappers zetten nu alle mogelijke verklaringen op een rij en gaan ze net zo lang door tot er geen opties overblijven om te ontkrachten. "Een groep wil de theorie over aliens nu gaan testen door radiogolven te meten rond de planeet. Als ze radio-activiteit meten, kan dat erop duiden dat er buitenaards leven contact legt met elkaar."

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CRTUexgVEAAB4zd.png:large

Superintelligence

@KIC8462852

Punt is alleen dat die methode, SETI, omstreden is in de wetenschap. "Het kan namelijk bewijzen dat er iets met iets communiceert, maar als er geen radiogolven worden opgevangen, hoeft dat niet per se te betekenen dat er géén buitenaards leven is. Misschien communiceren die aliens namelijk wel op een hele andere manier."

[OVNI] La rencontre choc du policier Val Johnson (1979)

Published on Nov 9, 2014

Le 27 août 1979, le shérif-adjoint Val Johnson du poste de police de Marshall County (Minnesota) effectue une patrouille de routine sur la route nationale 5 à bord d'une Ford 1977 LTD de service.
Vers 1h40 du matin, alors qu'il arrive aux abords de l'intersection avec la route nationale 220, le shérif aperçoit une forte lumière sur sa gauche, derrière une ligne d'arbres. La lumière étant trop puissante pour être de simples phares de voiture, Val Johnson pense qu'il s'agit, peut être, d'un avion posé dans un champ.

Voulant s'assurer que tout va bien, le témoin décide d'aller voir de plus près et tourne à gauche pour emprunter la route nationale 220. Aussitôt, la lumière fonce sur la voiture du shérif, l'atteint en moins d'une seconde (alors que la ligne d'arbres était située à presque deux kilomètres de l'intersection des deux routes).

Le témoin et son véhicule se retrouvent complètement englobés dans cette lumière puissante, Val Johnson entend son pare-brise craquer et sombre dans l'inconscience. A 2h19, le shérif Johnson reprend conscience, il ressent une douleur terrible aux yeux. Il arrive péniblement à demander de l'aide par radio. Aussitôt, l'agent Everett Doolittle est dépêché sur place. Quand il arrive sur les lieux de l'accident, il découvre la voiture du shérif avec un des phares brisé, le capot endommagé et un choc sur le pare-brise.

Le shérif est blessé à la tête et se plaint d'une forte douleur aux yeux et semble complètement désorienté et choqué. Val Johnson sera évacué en ambulance vers l'hôpital Warren peu après. Un ophtalmologue de Grand Forks qui examina le témoin le lendemain diagnostiqua une brûlure interne des yeux due à une exposition à une très forte source de lumière. La montre-bracelet du témoin, ainsi que l'horloge du véhicule présentèrent toutes les deux un retard de 14 minutes (temps manquant inexpliqué).

SETI listening to Star with ‘Alien Megastructures’

The search for signs of life has begun. SETI has tuned into Star KIC 8462852 to look for signals that could point towards the existence of life. Not long ago, researchers discovered huge mega structures orbiting the star KIC 8462852 which are, according to astronomers extremely bizarre.

Tabetha Boyajian, a postdoc at Yale, told The Atlantic: “We’d never seen anything like this star. It was really weird. We thought it might be bad data or movement on the spacecraft, but everything checked out.”

As we reported a few days ago, according to experts, the dips follow a pattern which suggests that the star is being orbited by a large, irregularly shaped object. What is even more interesting is the fact that the object which is causing the mysterious dips has to be a recently formed object according to scientists, as it would have been pulled in by the star’s gravity on the contrary.

Now, astronomers have begun searching for signals with the Allen Telescope Array (ATA), a system of satellite radios located 483 kilometers northeast of San Francisco. Experts have begun hunting for signals in the vicinity of KIC 8462852, a star located 1,500 light years from Earth.

Mysterious giant megastructures the product of Alien Civilizations? Guess we'll find out soon...
According to Jason Wright, an astronomer at the Pennsylvania State University, these structures, or better said mega-structures, could be the product of a highly advanced alien civilization.

But there are other explanations that have not been ruled out

While the mysterious dips are not likely caused by planets, it is possible that other celestial objects such as a huge cloud of dust, or a group of comets that literally rushed towards KIC 8462852 after a gravitational push from a passing star.


But scientists believe that it is very unlikely that these mega structures are the result of Mother Nature. Their pattern is odd. It is very possible that these giant structures could be the result of super-advanced Alien Civilizations and the mega structures orbiting the star could be giant Solar Panels or a giant Dyson Sphere placed around the star in order to harness energy.

"We are looking at it with the Allen Telescope Array," said Seth Shostak, a senior astronomer at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California.

According to astronomers, KIC 8462852 could host extraterrestrial life forms that do not emit any signals, meaning that even though we point our satellites at the star, and pick up nothing, that doesn’t mean that the systems is in fact lifeless. Astronomers say: “The lack of a detectable signal, after all, does not establish that KIC 8462852 is a lifeless system.”

It is possible that KIC 8462852 might have hosted an Advanced Alien Civilizations Millions of years ago and we are looking at the remains of the technology, a giant object orbiting its star, and the only thing that remains of their once great civilizations.

Astronomers say anything is possible.

"It almost doesn’t matter where you point your telescope, because there are planets everywhere," Shostak said. "If there's somebody out there, there are going to be so many of them out there that I do think there's a chance."

Chasing Wormholes: The Hunt for Tunnels in Space-Time

Folding of Space-Time

Science fiction literature is full of stories in which tunnels in space-time — known as wormholes — are used for time travel. How much fact lies within the fiction? The answer is, more than you might think. Scientists are looking at ways to use traversable wormholes (if they exist) to travel faster than the speed of light — and even to travel through time itself.

"A traversable wormhole is a hyperspace tunnel, also called a throat, that connects together two remotely distant regions within our universe, or two different universes — if other universes exist — or two different periods in time, as in time travel, or different dimensions of space," physicist Eric Davis told Space.com by email.

Davis specializes in the field of space-time as a member of the Tau Zero Foundation, where he uses equations from Einstein's general theory of relativity to think about possible (or impossible) designs for traversable wormholes, warp drives and time machines.

Building a wormhole

Wormholes were first proposed in 1916 by mathematician Ludwig Flamm, who was toying around with equations from Einstein's theory of general relativity that describe how gravity can curve space-time, which refers to the fabric of physical reality. While these tunnels through space-time are a fascinating theoretical possibility, according to physicist Kip Thorne, a professor emeritus at the California Institute of Technology, scientists have not yet come up with an agreed-upon way that wormholes could form in nature, and no wormholes have ever been detected.

Thorne and some of his colleagues also showed that even if a wormhole appeared, it would likely collapse before an object (or person) could pass through it. To keep the wormhole open long enough to traverse it would require some kind of scaffolding, but normal matter wouldn't stand up to the job — it would require an "exotic material."

"Dark energy is one form of naturally occurring exotic matter whose negative pressure produces the gravitationally repulsive force that pushes the space inside our universe outward, thus producing the inflationary expansion of the universe," Davis said.

Along with dark energy, scientists also know of an exotic material called dark matter, which is five times more prevalent in the universe than regular matter. To date, scientists have been unable to directly detect either dark matter or dark energy, so much about them is still unknown. Scientists can learn about these materials, though, by examining the effect they have on the space around them.

According to Ali Övgün of Eastern Mediterranean University in Cyprus, it's possible that wormholes could form where dark matter is present, and thus that they could exist in the outer regions of the Milky Way, where dark matter lies, as well as within other galaxies. Övgün is working to prove that wormholes could exist in regions dense with dark matter. He and his colleagues have run simulations that show that wormholes in dense regions of dark matter found in galactic halos would satisfy the physical requirements scientists think the tunnels require.

"But it is only mathematical proof," Övgün said. "I hope one day it will be possible to also find direct experimental evidence."

So, what happens to a person or instrument traveling through a wormhole?

"Nothing! The space-time geometry of traversable wormholes requires that there be no nasty, intolerable gravitational tidal forces acting upon the spacecraft or its passengers while they move through the wormhole tunnel," Davis said. "They go into the throat at their departure location near Earth and get shunted through the tunnel to emerge out the other side near the destination star."

Because these theoretical tunnels cut through space-time, they would allow travelers to achieve speeds that appear to an outside observer to be faster than light (FTL). However, from the travelers' points of view, they would never actually outpace the speed of light — it would just seem that way to outside observers because the travelers would be taking a route that's shorter than they would have taken through ordinary space.

Before scientists could use wormholes, they would first have to find them. To date, wormholes have not been discovered. However, if they exist, locating a tunnel through space-time may not be as difficult as it sounds.

"As it is visualized in the movie 'Interstellar,' in the future, there will be some experiments to observe [wormholes] indirectly," Övgün said.

Based on certain wormhole theories, he compared peering through a wormhole to Alice's glimpse through the looking glass, in Lewis Carroll's novel of the same name. The region of space at the far end of the tunnel should stand out from the area around the entrance thanks to distortions that would be similar to the reflection in curved mirrors. Another indication may be the way light is concentrated as it moves through the wormhole tunnel, much as the wind blows through a physical tunnel.

Davis refers to what is seen at the near end of a wormhole as a "rainbow caustic effect." Such effects could be seen from a distance.

"Astronomers were planning to use telescopes to hunt for these rainbow caustics as a sign of a naturally occurring, or even an alien-made, traversable wormhole," Davis said. "I never heard if that project got off the ground."

Traveling through time

As part of his study of wormholes, Thorne also proposed a thought experiment in which a wormhole could be used as a time machine. Thought experiments about time travel often run into paradoxes. Perhaps the most famous of these is the grandfather paradox: If an explorer went back in time and killed his or her grandfather, that person could not be born, and would never have gone back in time in the first place. This seems to suggest that backward time travel is impossible, but according to Davis, Thorne's work opened up a new avenue for scientists to explore.

"An entire cottage industry of theoretical physics was born after that, which led to the development of other space-time techniques that can produce causal, nonparadox time machines," Davis said.

But although using wormholes for time travel may appeal to fans of fiction (and those who'd like to change their past), Davis said current theories show that to make a wormhole time machine, one or both ends of the tunnel would need to be accelerated to velocities approaching the speed of light.

"It would be extremely difficult to construct a wormhole time machine," Davis said. "It's relatively much simpler to use wormholes for FTL interstellar travel between the stars."

Other physicists have suggested that using a wormhole to travel through time would cause a massive buildup of energy that would destroy the tunnel just before it could be utilized as a time machine — a process known as quantum back reaction. Nonetheless, it is still fun to dream about the potential.

"Think of all the possibilities of what people could do and the discoveries they could make if they could travel through time," Davis said. "Their adventures would be very interesting, to say the least."

Have We Really Discovered A Megastructure Around A Star Build By An Alien Civilization?

Last week, the internet was abuzz with the news of a mysterious object orbiting a distant star 1,500 light-years away that was blocking a huge amount of its light. With no obvious candidate for what the object could be, one scientist suggested the very faint possibility that it could be artificial in nature – yes, made by aliens.

“Aliens should always be the very last hypothesis you consider, but this looked like something you would expect an alien civilization to build,” Jason Wright, an astrophysicist from Pennsylvania State University, told The Atlantic. Wright wasn't directly involved in the study, which has been published in Arxiv, but made his comments after discussing the findings with lead author Tabetha Boyajian. Is he right, and if so, what could it be?

Wright has since clarified his comments and said that such a theory is extremely (emphasis on “extremely”) unlikely. But it’s intriguing, nonetheless – if not least to spark discussion as what might be out there. After all, there are hundreds of billions of planets in our galaxy, itself one of hundreds of millions of galaxies in the known universe. It seems doubtful that we are the only planet with life on it, although why we have not found other intelligent life yet is a mystery, known as the Fermi Paradox.

The star in question is KIC 8462852, an old star about 1.5 times larger than the Sun. Using the Kepler space telescope, a team of astronomers found that its light dipped by up to 20% on several occasions due to the orbit of a vast object that would have to be almost half the star’s size. What’s more, these huge dips occurred at random across the 1,600 days the star was observed.

Owing to the age of the star, the object must be relatively new, or it would have been consumed by the star’s gravity. The other object cannot be a star, as it is not emitting light nor is it circular. It is also unlikely to be a planet, owing to its irregular orbit. So, what is it?

In the paper, the leading suggestion is that it is debris left from comets breaking up around the star. This would be expected to produce large amounts of infra-red radiation, though, owing to the scattering of dust around the star, something that was not observed. This led Wright to suggest the other, more outlandish theory – that an alien civilization could be the cause, or more specifically, a Dyson sphere.

A Dyson sphere is a structure that harnesses a star’s energy for use by a civilization, sort of like solar power but on a massive scale. It would be composed of hundreds or thousands of spacecraft, often referred to as a Dyson swarm, that would theoretically be large enough to block out a significant portion of a star's light.

A Dyson Sphere, illustrated, is one vageuly possible explanation. Vedexent.

It’s estimated that as a civilization gets more and more advanced, it will require more and more energy to thrive. Some consider a Dyson sphere the best way to gather this energy, labeling the civilization a type 1 on the Kardashev Scale (for reference, we are at 0.73). However, a recent separate study to find such structures around stars proved fruitless.

Indeed, if this were a Dyson sphere, it would be producing large amounts of infrared radiation, something not apparent at the moment. The researchers are planning to use telescopes to observe the star in greater detail and see if it is producing any unusual signals, but for now there doesn’t seem to be anything untoward. One possibility is that the Dyson sphere is a remnant of an ancient civilization that is now extinct, or elsewhere, and the machines are defunct, simply left to orbit the star and block its light.

Perhaps it could also be some other type of alien structure. The possibility has tantalised the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute in California enough to take a closer look at the star with the Allen Telescope Array as of today. We’ll have to wait and see if they find anything.

But this is all very unlikely. We’re definitely not suggesting for certain this is some kind of alien technology. Indeed, similar speculation occurred in the past when pulsars – rapidly rotating neutron stars – were discovered and mistaken for possible signs of artificial intelligence. Their existence had not previously been theorized; perhaps this latest discovery is, too, a new natural phenomenon. Even if this turns out to be nothing more than a swarm of dead comets, or something else, that would still be of huge interest. But, here or elsewhere, we’re surely going to find some sign of another intelligent race eventually. If not, as the Fermi paradox famously states, then where is everyone ( via iflscience.com )?
