UFO Seen In The Sky During A Super Bowl Game
UFO Seen In The Sky During A Super Bowl Game
Symbolic picture
The New England Patriots were set to go against the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl LII, and all eyes of the sporting world were on the U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, Minnesota. However, sky watchers extended their interest beyond planet Earth as they observed a UFO buzzing in the sky.
On the Super Bowl, dozens of witnesses saw a huge UFO.
An unnamed witness was driving on I-94 around 3:30 pm. They noticed a bunch of cars pulled over to the side of the road. People got out of their vehicles and stood outside. They were shaking up and trembling as they were typing their report.
They could not tell if it was a real aircraft or if it was just a movie, but they were sure it was not an aeroplane. According to their report, it was a diamond-shaped with dark, dull grey colour. The object in question reportedly did make a noise that was difficult to describe.
Today’s Super Bowl saw the Philadelphia Eagles upset the National Football League’s (NFL) defending champion New England Patriots at the score of 41-33 in a grudge match on Sunday to capture their maiden Super Bowl title.
Caught On Video – Deafening Sonic Boom Sound Takes Place In Area 51
Caught On Video – Deafening Sonic Boom Sound Takes Place In Area 51
An extraordinary sound was captured on camera near the secretive Area 51 base. An amateur radio operator set up a transmitter near the facility to capture any suspicious activity. Then something big passes above him and makes a loud sonic boom sound.
He then looks around, appears confused of the origin of the sound. However, no aircraft is in sight.
The man then ran to his radio transmitter to check if he can hear anything and know where the sound is coming from.
However, the signal appears to scramble and a series of unusual noises spurt through the speaker, before the video cuts.
The bizarre clip was recorded in May 2017 but only recently has been shared online.
The footage sparks concerns if the American government is hiding something.
One of the thousands of viewers says that it is probably a good idea the guy is doing something like it and adds that it is the job of the people to keep an eye on the government they pay.
Others are wondering where the loud noise is coming as there’s no way to see its origin.
One viewer shows concern on the man’s safety as he is messing with people who can make him disappear.

Elon Musk's red Tesla Roadster launch has caught the attention of conspiracy theorists, who believe that there could be alien craft in the background of the footage of SpaceX rocket launch.
Conspiracy theorists have spotted a black object in the rocket launch video, which was viewed by millions, and now they are of the opinion that it may be an actual UFO. The black dot, which is hardly visible, can be seen hurtling across the Earth and that too at a high speed.
They have also said that the presence of the mysterious object, which was noticed at various points in the video, was covered up when the footage from the spacecraft cut out, the Daily Star reports.
"My thought was a trans atmospheric skip vehicle, but I could just be hopeful," a UFO enthusiasts said.
"Is that aliens!!! What is this?" another UFO enthusiast wrote.
"Just saw a bunch of awesome UFOs on the Starman live stream," another user said.
"Hey SpaceX What the heck is that green and blue light that just phased in to the background of Starman???!!!"
However, several commentators refuting the alien life claims said that the mysterious object is probably human-made space junk, or maybe a satellite or something falling away from the rocket.
"Perhaps the aliens just want to get hold of a Tesla car to take joyriding on Planet Zog? More seriously, this is more like a case of something falling away from the rocket, certainly, nothing to do with a UFO of the extraterrestrial type following it," Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, said.
"It might even have just been another satellite in orbit. With all the c**p that's up there, it's far more likely that it's debris or something that's been in orbit for awhile than it was something secret," another commented.

CHURCHILL'S X-FILES: Bulldog PM ordered UFO inquiry but 'covered up results'
CHURCHILL'S X-FILES: Bulldog PM ordered UFO inquiry but 'covered up results'
WINSTON Churchill ordered a special team to investigate a strange rise in flying saucer sightings....but the results of the inquiry were covered up, claim conspiracy theorists.
Declassified documents have revealed the wartime leader built a special Whitehall team, known as the Flying Saucer Working Party, to look into a strange increase in UFO sightings.
An official report said the numerous sightings had earthly explanations, including the cause of strange objects over US capital Washington DC which were picked up by several military radar.
But, conspiracy theorists claim the report involved the cover up of a sighting in the UK by RAF staff.
The theory is fueled by an alleged deathbed confession by Churchill’s personal bodyguard who spoke of these bizarre events which involved two RAF pilots reporting encounters with mysterious aircraft, known as “foo fighters”, as WWII drew to an end.
Foo fighters was the term used by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II to describe UFOs and mysterious aerial phenomena such as balls of fire that followed fighter aircraft during battles in the skies over Europe and the Pacific.
Military chiefs assumed the foo fighters were really secret German weapons sightings, but they are said to have continued after the end of the war and even into modern times, causing many to dispute this.
So what triggered Churchill's involvement?
In July 1952, US Air Force fighter jets had to be scrambled on two consecutive weekends after radar detected several unidentified objects flying in a restricted zone over the White House – causing public panic.
Although in the US, Churchill wanted to know more and about any implications for the UK.
GETTY
Churchill ordered a UFO inquiry, but covered up some of the results, it is claimed.
On July 28, 1952, Churchill sent his Secretary of State for Air, Lord Cherwell, a memo, requesting investigations into what happened in the US and the wider issue.
The note, now called the “Churchill Memorandum,” the then PM wrote: "What does all this stuff about flying saucers amount to?
“What can it mean? What is the truth?
“Let me have a report at your convenience."
Lord Cherwell launched the Flying Saucer Working Party to find answers.
The top secret group had actually been set up two years earlier to look into home grown UFO sightings.

This should be immediately classified since it would create mass panic among the general population and destroy one's belief in the church.

It was unable to completely rule out “an aircraft of extraterrestrial origin, developed by beings unknown to us on lines more advanced than anything we have thought of”.
However, it explained it was more likely the sightings were down to normal aircraft, balloons, birds or other natural phenomena, optical illusions, deliberate hoaxes – or “psychological delusions”.
But years later, in 1999, Churchill's involvement in the great UFO debate resurfaced.
The grandson of a retired RAF officer wrote to the MoD, inquiring about an incident in which Churchill allegedly banned the reporting of a UFO encounter off the east coast of England.
The RAF officer – who was said to be Churchill’s personal bodyguard – had allegedly confessed on his deathbed that an RAF reconnaissance plane was returning from a mission over occupied Europe when it was shadowed by a “metallic UFO” off Cumbria.
It was claimed the crew took pictures of the object – which was said to “hover noiselessly” by the plane.
At the time, when the mysterious encounter was brought to Churchill's attention, he ordered that details remain classified for at least 50 years – and could only be released EVER following a review by a future PM.

Churchill was allegedly terrified that news of the possibility of aliens could destroy faith in God and cause unrest and mass panic.
The British bulldog is alleged to have shouted: "This should be immediately classified since it would create mass panic among the general population and destroy one's belief in the church.”
Conspiracy theorists claim the establishment must have since hidden or destroyed all records of the incident.
There is no record of the event, or Churchill's orders, and the MoD says all UFO files from before 1967 have been destroyed.
Jason Chapman, who has written several books on the Churchill Memorandum, said: “The MoD has demonstrated in the past that it is capable of covering up a great many incidents.
“I believe it is possible that a former high ranking military official would have knowledge of UFOs.”
The 46-year-old, who works for British defence contractor BAE Systems, said: “Someone, somewhere knows something.
“It’s definitely not our world leaders – such information is way above the pay grade of the Prime Minister.
“Perhaps sat at the back of the House of Lords there’s a retired general, a relic left over from the Cold War, who has information which could prove there’s a cover-up.”
Alien and Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO) have been mind-boggling stuff since 1947 – the first time a well-known UFO sighting occurred. A businessman, who was flying his small plane, had claimed to have seen nine high-speed objects near Mount Rainier in Washington. He had said that the crescent-shaped objects had tremendous speed and moved "like saucers skipping on water."
Cut to 2004, Navy pilots encountered a UFO off the San Diego coast. According to an eyewitness, pilot David Fravor, the 40-foot Tic-Tac shaped white vehicle moved, unlike any other thing he had ever seen in the air with lightning speed.
Not only in these two incidents but UFOs are often reported to display bizarre aerodynamics, defying the laws of Physics, which human minds are still incapable of apprehending.
Former director of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program - Pentagon's program to identify and investigate UFOs, Luis Elizondo has put forward an explanation about "the physics of how it works".
"We do believe all these observables we've been seeing, sudden and extreme acceleration, hypersonic velocities, low observability, trans medium travel, and last but not least, positive lift, anti-gravity – is really the manifestation of a single technology," Elizondo said, according to Daily Star.
It is the ability to warp space-time, Elizondo explained, and not by a lot, but by a little.
Space and Time Warps theory says that the fourth dimension called the space-time continuum, which fuses the three dimensions of space and the one dimension of time, can be bent like a cloth when exposed to high gravity of objects.
Space and Time Warps theory

Imagine a ball falling on fabric or a child playing on a trampoline. When the object hits the surface of material it creates dentures. Similarly, heavenly bodies with huge mass bend the space-time. Now, if the bend is large enough, it might help an object to time travel by creating a wormhole – a theoretical passage through space-time that could create shortcuts for long journeys across the universe.
Thus from here, another question arises: Are aliens time-travellers?
Outer Space, January 18, 2018, published an article about a former high-ranking US Marine who is on run from the US government for flying a "time-travelling" alien spaceship at Area 51.
The United States Air Force facility, commonly known as Area 51, is a highly classified remote detachment of Edwards Air Force Base in Nevada and people believe that US government is hiding evidence of extra-terrestrial life there.
Luis Elizondo used to run the top-secret Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), which investigated flying saucers.
This groundbreaking programme, which had a budget of £16.5million allocated to it annually by the Department of Defence, was run from the fifth floor of Pentagon’s C RING in Washington DC.
Former Nevada Democrat Senator Harry Reid pushed for its creation in 2007, with analysis conducted by Bigelow Aerospace of Nevada.
Stunned US navy pilots observed a “whole fleet” of UFOs that were “going against” a 120 knots wind – in one AATIP case from 2015.
GETTY
REVEALED: Former Pentagon intelligence official Luis Elizondo has investigated UFO reports
Advanced sensors revealed the unknown object had no propulsion system and slowed to a near stop before rotating, it is claimed.
Now Elizondo has lifted the lid on what he claims has been learned through the Pentagon program about the seemingly out-of-this-world capabilities of UFOs.
He said: “I think we've come very close to understanding the physics of how it works, and that's very exciting.
"For the first time, we have a compelling picture that what we are seeing is explained in our current understanding of physics, advanced physics, and quantum mechanics.”
Incredible footage emerged last year of a sighting involving the battleship USS Nimitz in 2004 in the Pacific off the San Diego coast.
Two US navy pilots, Commander David Fravor and Lieutenant Commander Jim Slaight, watched in amazement as an object appeared suddenly at 80,000 feet before hurtling towards the sea and stopping at 20,000 ft.
When they approached for a closer look, the 40ft long object “accelerated like nothing I’ve ever seen”, said Cdr Fravor.
And now Elizondo believes that they may have an explanation for how UFOs achieve such extreme speeds.
"We do believe all these observables we've been seeing, sudden and extreme acceleration, hypersonic velocities, low observability, trans medium travel, and last but not least, positive lift, anti-gravity – is really the manifestation of a single technology," Elizondo said.
"So it's not five exotic technologies we're trying to figure out, it's one. and we think we know that one too.”
Scientists employed by Bigelow Aerospace including a physicist named Dr Hal Puthoff came to the conclusion that the craft can effectively create their own time-space bubble, which allows them to fly at such incredible speeds.
"We believe it has to do with a high amount of energy and the ability to warp space-time, not by a lot, but by a little," said Elizondo.
While the US government said AATIP was closed in 2012, Elizondo claimed he worked on the highly-sensitive project until October last year until he resigned over “excessive secrecy and internal opposition”.
He believes the existence of extraterrestrials would be “beyond reasonable doubt” if it was ever discussed in court.
Dr Michio Kaku – America’s answer to Stephen Hawking – said the bizarre object US military personnel reported seeing pursuing some of their warplanes could be a new type of super-fast aircraft.
The space boffin said: “Are UFOs chasing our jet fighters, as recent secret documents suggest?
“Maybe they are experimental hypersonic drones. Or maybe aliens from outer space? I keep an open mind.”

If 'Starman' Isn't Headed for the Asteroid Belt, Where's That Dummy Going?
If 'Starman' Isn't Headed for the Asteroid Belt, Where's That Dummy Going?
By Hanneke Weitering, Space.com Staff Writer

The Tesla Roadster and "Starman" dummy that SpaceX launched on its new Falcon Heavy rocket on Tuesday (Feb. 6) does not appear to be heading to the asteroid belt, despite what SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk said on Twitter Tuesday evening.
After orbiting the Earth for about 6 hours, the cherry-red Roadster (which was mounted on the Falcon Heavy's upper stage) set sail into the solar system. One hour later, Musk tweeted that the car had "exceeded Mars orbit and kept going to the asteroid belt." The plan was to send the Roadster on an elliptical orbit around the sun, swinging by Mars along the way.
Now, it looks like Starman isn't actually heading toward the asteroid belt at all. After SpaceX released data on Starman's orbit on Wednesday (Feb. 7), experts on social media started crunching the numbers and noted that the data didn't match the trajectory that Musk had tweeted the day before. Rather, the data shows that the Roadster's path will take it closer to Mars' orbit than the asteroid belt. [In Photos: SpaceX's 1st Falcon Heavy Rocket Test Launch Success!]
"The asteroid orbit plot was just a mistake," Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, told Space.com.
McDowell explained that the error apparently arose when someone at SpaceX used an orbital parameter called C3 — a measure of the velocity needed to escape Earth's gravity — to determine the shape of the Roadster's orbit "and goofed while doing it."
"For selling the rocket to customers, C3 is what you care about, [and] the actual orbit around the sun is not relevant," McDowell said, "so they weren't careful about calculating it."
Using the JPL ephemeris, the closest predicted approach to Mars between now and 2030 is 7 million km on 2020 Oct 8. This is still well outside Mars' gravitational sphere of influence
McDowell calculated that the Roadster will venture by Mars at a safe distance of about 70 million miles (110 million kilometers) as it crosses the planet's orbit in July.
The closest it will ever get to Mars will be in October of 2020 at a distance of about 4.4 million miles (7 million km), which is still "well outside Mars' gravitational sphere of influence," McDowell wrote on Twitter. This means that the Roadster definitely won't be orbiting Mars as Musk first announced it would in a tweet last December.
Even with the new, corrected trajectory, these numbers and time frames are not set in stone. NASA's ephemeris calculator for the Roadster states, "Over time, prediction errors could increase more rapidly than the formal statistics indicate due to unmodeled solar pressure, thermal re-radiation, or outgassing accelerations that are not currently characterized."
McDowell said that these factors could affect the Roadster's predicted encounters "by at least 10 percent in distance and several weeks in date."
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has made the Roadster data publicly accessible, and you can find it at ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons.cgi (select "target body" -143205).

From the Farside --Theories of the Black Knight Satellite --"A 13,000 Year-Old Alien Artifact in Orbit Around the Earth"
From the Farside --Theories of the Black Knight Satellite --"A 13,000 Year-Old Alien Artifact in Orbit Around the Earth"
Sometime in the 20th century a theory arose, claiming that the famous inventor Nikola Tesla was actually contacted by a 13,000 year old alien artifact in orbit around Earth, an object which has since become known as the Black Knight Satellite.
The history of the Black Knight is actually a conglomerate of several independent stories, all of which involve an unidentified object in orbit around Earth, but outside of a common moniker, share little else in common, reports Vice.com. No one is quite sure when the myth began or who started it, but its history spans from Tesla's turn of the century experiments to the launch of the International Space Station, and the evidence in support of the Black Knight's existence ranges from Internet hearsay to photographic "proof."
According to those who believe in the existence of some mysterious alien artifact lurking in the solar system, the Black Knight's next attempt to contact Earth occurred in 1927. This time the alleged Black Knight transmission was picked up by a Norwegian engineer named Jørgen Hals.
While he was experimenting with radio signals, Hals noticed that some of the signals would echo back to him several seconds after the initial transmission had ended. He was at a loss to explain what accounted for these Long Delayed Echoes. In the 80-odd years since Hals' discovery, no one has been able to conclusively explain what accounts for these eerie echoes, making them a perfect target for those with a penchant for conspiracies.
The next alleged "sighting" of the Black Knight was in the early 1960s, when TIME reported an unknown object was discovered to be in polar orbit around the Earth, something of an anomaly considering that both the US and Soviet satellites of the time were all in equatorial orbit. A few weeks after these initial reports, the US Department of Defense announced that the object had been identified as a piece of the Discoverer satellite.
Many were skeptical of this explanation, so for years this mysterious "dark" satellite continued to be cited as evidence of the existence of the Black Knight. As it turns out, the skepticism was warranted, but not because the object was an alien spacecraft. Rather, declassified documents revealed that it was, in fact, a part of the United States' CORONA project, a mission that produced the world's first successful space photo-reconnaissance flights in an effort to monitor Soviet missile facilities.
So the Black Knight lived on through the 70s and 80s as little more than a highly speculative urban myth with next to no hard evidence to support its existence. This all changed in 1998, when those on the Space Shuttle Endeavor flight STS-88 photographed an amorphous black object hovering ominously above the Earth.
California earthquakes are a geologic inevitability. The state straddles the North American and Pacific tectonic plates and is crisscrossed by the San Andreas and other active fault systems. The magnitude 7.9 earthquake that struck off Alaska’s Kodiak Island on Jan. 23, 2018, was just the latest reminder of major seismic activity along the Pacific Rim.
Tragic quakes that occurred in 2017 near the Iran-Iraq border and in central Mexico, with magnitudes of 7.3 and 7.1, respectively, are well within the range of earthquake sizes that have a high likelihood of occurring in highly populated parts of California during the next few decades.
The earthquake situation in California is actually more dire than people who aren’t seismologists like myself may realize. Although many Californians can recount experiencing an earthquake, most have never personally experienced a strong one. For major events, with magnitudes of 7 or greater, California is actually in an earthquake drought. Multiple segments of the expansive San Andreas Fault system are now sufficiently stressed to produce large and damaging events.
The good news is that earthquake readiness is part of the state’s culture, and earthquake science is advancing – including much improved simulations of large quake effects and development of an early warning system for the Pacific coast.
The last big one
California occupies a central place in the history of seismology. The April 18, 1906, San Francisco earthquake (magnitude 7.8) was pivotal to both earthquake hazard awareness and the development of earthquake science – including the fundamental insight that earthquakes arise from faults that abruptly rupture and slip. The San Andreas Fault slipped by as much as 20 feet (six meters) in this earthquake.
Although ground-shaking damage was severe in many places along the nearly 310-mile (500-kilometer) fault rupture, much of San Francisco was actually destroyed by the subsequent fire, due to the large number of ignition points and a breakdown in emergency services. That scenario continues to haunt earthquake response planners. Consider what might happen if a major earthquake were to strike Los Angeles during fire season.
Collapsed Santa Monica Freeway bridge across La Cienega Boulevard, Los Angeles, after the Northridge earthquake January 17, 1994.
When a major earthquake occurs anywhere on the planet, modern global seismographic networks and rapid response protocols now enable scientists, emergency responders and the public to assess it quickly – typically, within tens of minutes or less – including location, magnitude, ground motion and estimated casualties and property losses. And by studying the buildup of stresses along mapped faults, past earthquake history, and other data and modeling, we can forecast likelihoods and magnitudes of earthquakes over long time periods in California and elsewhere.
However, the interplay of stresses and faults in the Earth is dauntingly chaotic. And even with continuing advances in basic research and ever-improving data, laboratory and theoretical studies, there are no known reliable and universal precursory phenomena to suggest that the time, location and size of individual large earthquakes can be predicted.
Major earthquakes thus typically occur with no immediate warning whatsoever, and mitigating risks requires sustained readiness and resource commitments. This can pose serious challenges, since cities and nations may thrive for many decades or longer without experiencing major earthquakes.
California’s earthquake drought
The 1906 San Francisco earthquake was the last quake greater than magnitude 7 to occur on the San Andreas Fault system. The inexorable motions of plate tectonics mean that every year, strands of the fault system accumulate stresses that correspond to a seismic slip of millimeters to centimeters. Eventually, these stresses will be released suddenly in earthquakes.
But the central-southern stretch of the San Andreas Fault has not slipped since 1857, and the southernmost segment may not have ruptured since 1680. The highly urbanized Hayward Fault in the East Bay region has not generated a major earthquake since 1868.
Reflecting this deficit, the Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast estimates that there is a 93 percent probability of a 7.0 or larger earthquake occurring in the Golden State region by 2045, with the highest probabilities occurring along the San Andreas Fault system.
Perspective view of California’s major faults, showing forecast probabilities estimated by the third Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast. The color bar shows the estimated percent likelihood of a magnitude 6.7 or larger earthquake during the next 30 years, as of 2014. Note that nearly the entire San Andreas Fault system is red on the likelihood scale due to the deficit of large earthquakes during and prior to the past century.
California’s population has grown more than 20-fold since the 1906 earthquake and currently is close to 40 million. Many residents and all state emergency managers are widely engaged in earthquake readiness and planning. These preparations are among the most advanced in the world.
No California earthquake since the 1933 Long Beach event (6.4) has killed more than 100 people. Quakes in 1971 (San Fernando, 6.7); 1989 (Loma Prieta; 6.9); 1994 (Northridge; 6.7); and 2014 (South Napa; 6.0) each caused more than US$1 billion in property damage, but fatalities in each event were, remarkably, dozens or less. Strong and proactive implementation of seismically informed building codes and other preparations and emergency planning in California saved scores of lives in these medium-sized earthquakes. Any of them could have been disastrous in less-prepared nations.

Nonetheless, California’s infrastructure, response planning and general preparedness will doubtlessly be tested when the inevitable and long-delayed “big ones” occur along the San Andreas Fault system. Ultimate damage and casualty levels are hard to project, and hinge on the severity of associated hazards such as landslides and fires.
Several nations and regions now have or are developing earthquake early warning systems, which use early detected ground motion near a quake’s origin to alert more distant populations before strong seismic shaking arrives. This permits rapid responses that can reduce infrastructure damage. Such systems provide warning times of up to tens of seconds in the most favorable circumstances, but the notice will likely be shorter than this for many California earthquakes.
Early warning systems are operational now in Japan, Taiwan, Mexico and Romania. Systems in California and the Pacific Northwest are presently under development with early versions in operation. Earthquake early warning is by no means a panacea for saving lives and property, but it represents a significant step toward improving earthquake safety and awareness along the West Coast.
Managing earthquake risk requires a resilient system of social awareness, education and communications, coupled with effective short- and long-term responses and implemented within an optimally safe built environment. As California prepares for large earthquakes after a hiatus of more than a century, the clock is ticking.
A newly discovered asteroid that is set to buzz past Earth today could be as large as the asteroid that exploded over Russia five years ago.
Asteroid 2018 CB that was only spotted five days ago is between 50 and 130 feet in size, according to NASA.
It will pass by Earth within one-fifth of the distance between the Earth and the moon.
“Asteroids of this size do not often approach this close to our planet—maybe only once or twice a year,” said Paul Chodas, the manager of NASA’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies.
According to NASA, it will make its closest approach to Earth at 10:30 p.m. GMT (5:30 p.m. EST) today.
The asteroid was found by NASA-funded Catalina Sky Survey (CSS) near Tucson, Arizona, that records potentially hazardous asteroids.
“Although 2018 CB is quite small, it might well be larger than the asteroid that entered the atmosphere over Chelyabinsk, Russia, almost exactly five years ago, in 2013,” said Chodas.
In astronomical terms, the asteroid that exploded over Chelyabinsk was quite small, at 59 feet. The rock exploded in the atmosphere 14.5 miles (23.3 kilometers) above Russia’s Chelyabinsk region in February 2013. It caused over 1,000 injuries and extensive damage to property.
Fortunately, the space station said that 2018 CB will “safely pass” Earth.
It is the second asteroid to pass by the planet this week. Spotted by CSS, 2018 CC zoomed past Earth at about 8:10 p.m. GMT (3:10 p.m. EST) on Tuesday Feb. 6. at a distance of about 114,000 miles (184,000 kilometers). The asteroid was between 50 and 100 feet in size.
NASA is particularly concerned about asteroids that are over 500 feet in diameter and closer than 4.6 million miles from Earth. These types of asteroids are classified as Potentially Hazardous Asteroids.
New Protocol For Evidence Gathering After An Alien Abduction
New Protocol For Evidence Gathering After An Alien Abduction
In all of UFOlogy, there is no situation more terrifying and misunderstood than the phenomena of alien abductions. Thousands of people around the world have reported terrifying and paradoxical accounts of kidnapping from beyond. These kidnappers bring their abductee’s home after the incident. Which is nice it makes evidence gathering easier. A large portion of accounts portray the victims to be completely and utterly subdued during the incident. Awareness but zero motor control is the norm. The silent kidnappers seem to have some kind of non-anthropomorphic plan us. In UFOlogy it is believed to be many different types of aliens responsible for all these abduction accounts. Nothing really is off the table. ETH, dimensional, pandimensional, time travellers, etc could be the culprits. Accounts and events vary wildly but the complete paralyzation of the victim is a common thread.
People report being taken away from their home to someplace that can only be described as alien. Some people remember the actual traversal from home to wonderland, some don’t. Some report invasive painful medical like procedures while others report more of a 1960’s style “Love-In” with all love and light aliens. Through all that others have the traumatic experience but no memory of it at all until regression therapy makes the revelation.
Through all the obfuscation and parallax reality, how can anything more than an anecdotal account ever come from alien abductions? Abductees cannot move their hands or feet how can they be expected to bring evidence back? Good thing that you don’t have to move anything to gather all the evidence humanity needs.
BACKGROUND
Dr. Edmond Locard
The concept of evidence should be no different in this case than in any other. If these abductions are real events and not totally internally generated hypnogogic imagery these abductees are bringing home evidence every single time they are violated. In the science of Forensics, there is truism called Locard’s exchange principle. This principle is the bedrock of modern forensics. It holds that the perpetrator of a crime will bring something into the crime scene and leave with something from it and that both can be used as forensic evidence. Locard speculated that every time you make contact with another person, place, or thing, it results in an exchange of physical materials. He is the grandfather of trace evidence.
Traces of physical materials no matter how minute can tell a story. Trace evidence is factual. Unlike humans, it cannot be confused by the excitement of the moment, does not forget, and never develops crippling debilitating dementia. It’s a silent witness that speaks when humans cannot. Physical evidence cannot be wrong, it cannot lie, it cannot be wholly absent. Only human failure to find it, study and understand it, can diminish its value. So far humanity has completely diminished the alien abduction phenomena by not developing the correct eyes to move from speculation to accepted hypothesis.
The Situation
Everytime that you encounter their environment you bring a little piece of it home, you can’t help it. If you were lying on an examination table you are bringing a tiny piece of it with you. Any instruments or biological entities touch you, you bring a little piece of them home. You may not think you do because you can’t see it, but it’s there.
Every time you are abducted and taken to another realm you bring home all the evidence humanity would ever need to prove the high strangeness is just plain old strange. Each of us carries around millions of microorganisms – including bacteria, fungi, and viruses — on the inner and outer surfaces of our bodies. Most of them aren’t dangerous. In fact, growing evidence indicates that they help us in lots of ways. Scientists call this collection of organisms our microbiome. Recent discoveries have shown that we constantly enveloped in a cloud of our microbiome. Think of pig-pen from the Peanuts comic strips. Each and every one of us have a constant cloud of microbes circling us. It enters a room before you do and lingers after you leave. It blends with all the people you encounter in your life and you blend with theirs.
Science has developed techniques to analyze this atmospheric microbiome. They have developed the ability to identify individual people only by their lingering microbiome. This cloud is suspected to be as individualized as fingerprints. Technology is in development that will be used in law enforcement to pull criminal offenders microbiome from a crime scene to aid in conviction. Just being there will now be as good as leaving a fully formed finger mark.
This collection of alien microbiomes is our BEST and ONLY method that has any chance of success of proving that the Genesis of life happened more than once in the universe. Us (Earth) and Them (?).
If we could collect alien skin flakes, vapour from breath or transpiration, dust from alien metallurgy, food particles, or really anything floating in the turbulent air currents of your abduction chamber. They brought something into the chamber, by proximity it mixed around and in you, and you brought some of it out.
Keep in mind these creatures that are doing this to you are NOT GODS. They are NOT absolute. Their advancements may seem like magic but it is not magic. Sufficiently advanced technology will appear as magic. Don’t be fooled. These kidnappers DO NOT know everything about you. They are not omnipotent. If they knew everything about you, you would not have been restrained to an examination table and examined. The only true power you may have in this situation is your mind. But that is all you will need. Use your intellect against them. Be as aware as possible of your environment. They think you are inferior, show them just how inventive we really can be. Their own cells and molecules will give them away.
When an abductee enters the environment where they are examined or whatever you can assume several things. They would have to recreate the environment that is conducive to your survival requirements. They either had or had to create an environment that matched our temperature range, atmospheric pressure, gas composition, humidity, gravity, etc. If you can breathe during your ordeal you know you are gathering good evidence. This exposure will change your microbiome. You are coming in contact with a foreign environment. The most foreign possible.
You are in contact with their atmosphere all over your body and lungs. The aliens, table, or platform will leave evidence on your skin. The moving of you will leave evidence. Everything in this mutant wonderland will. Every movement of your abductors in your environment stirs the pot of microbes and atmosphere. Even if you can’t feel air movement, it is moving and mixing everything in the environment. You have all you need without blinking an eye or moving a muscle. If you have any communication with them stall them. The longer you are in their artificially created environment the better.
Once you get back if you get back now the fun begins.
The evidence that will change the world in regards to extraterrestrials will never come from photography or videography. No image or video can possibly do it. The only thing that will satisfy the world of non-true believers is alien biological material or alien metallurgy.
Procedure
The ideal process to attain credible evidence should satiate both Edmond Locard and the microbial hunters.
The potential abductee will be required to get a baseline microbiome assay performed. This would be a totally noninvasive test. Just sampling the air closely around you. The researchers will need an unadulterated baseline for comparison later. The subject needs not do anything besides keep up good hygiene and act as bait for highly invasive, highly terrifying, highly strange abduction happy aliens.
Now we wait for all hell to break loose.
After an abduction, the abductee performs the microbial assay and submits both the control and test sample for comparison. The hope would be to over many trials and tests to discover statistical significant aberrations. Have enough samples to create a viable set, and lots of time to crunch the numbers and maybe, just maybe the “Holy Grail” an alien microorganism. Just a few alien skin cells or biological detritus would be a jackpot. One test can not prove anything, just be a curiosity. A thousand tests analyzed and correlated proper can prove the truth. Until this technology becomes viable we will have to stick with making Edmond Locard happy. Not to worry the law enforcement industry is driving this technology, it is only a matter of time until it is a reality.
Every abductee should have an abduction kit which they can use and send in for analysis. Looking for trace evidence is done in other fields of UFOlogy, why not in abductions. There is a lot of discussion about trace evidence but as far as I can see no concerted organized effort to gather microbial or trace evidence has ever been put forth.
What I propose is a collection service of a sort. A central clearinghouse for abduction test kits. A place to collect, analyze, digitize, and correlate the samples and data.
1 – Surgical lint remover high-tack adhesive roller. This high-tack adhesive roller is sterile. It quickly and efficiently picks up and removes lint and other foreign particles from surgical packs, wrappers, and gowns to help control contamination in ultra clean surgical environments. Think of it as the surgeon’s lint brush. It is designed to be an attractant to synthetic and biological debris. This fits our requirements perfectly.
When you are in the midst of the abduction if you are not petrified and functioning only on your Id, try to remember where your body comes in contact with the environment. Physical contact with the floor, any equipment, or the aliens themselves. Just remember where the contact is made. This will help later. Not necessary but would be very useful.
Wherever you are when you come back from the abduction and regain control and consciousness the kit should be immediately administered.
Immediately perform a microbial cloud assay test of yourself. Return test sample to abduction collection kit.
With great care and consideration take the surgical lint brush and run it over in proper fashion over every inch of your skin and or clothes. Carefully run it over where ever you were found or regained control from the event. If you were in bed run the surgical lint brush over your spot. If it was in a car process the seat. After samples are taken seal it up with the microbial assay test and send to collection house for analysis.
The goal is to get a very large sample of abduction kits into the system. Only with a large sampling can any meaningful statistical correlations can be drawn. A hundred test collection kits would be good but a thousand would be much better.
The surgical lint brushes would be analyzed, high-resolution scans made, detailed descriptions of particulates found and entered into a central database. Original samples preserved for further analysis if needed.
Here is a possible best case scenario.
A statistically significant amount of samples has been found to have a common foreign particulate present. It was never noticed by victims or investigators up to this point because it only becomes easily visible under a specific polarized light frequency. Further and deeper examination show that all the foreign particles have the same geometric shape. Something like a Tetris piece. This does not happen in nature. Sure would be a great discovery. Just what we were looking for.
Any discovery of new particles or correlations that we can make is a win-win.
This proposed collection system would have most of its expense in the back end. The abduction collection kits would easily be under $30 including returned postage. The cost of processing and warehousing would be the big expense.
All things considered, this system would be very cheap to operate when you consider the potential intellectual advancement potential.
We really need to have new ideas, a new organization, and new determination to do whatever is needed to make the study of alien abduction an action-oriented discipline instead of what is has always been an unfocused reactionary one.

You Find A Crashed Alien Space Craft Filled With Advanced Technologies. What Should You Do With It?
You Find A Crashed Alien Space Craft Filled With Advanced Technologies. What Should You Do With It?
Here lies humankind. Cause of death – Curiosity
One day you are out exploring the vast untouched wilderness of the Canadian north-west. Trees for as far as the eyes can see. Miles upon countless miles of virgin forest. You are inspired by the clean air and unspoiled nature. You are hiking on land untouched by human hands or feet. Your mind wanders as the breeze blows. You are utterly alone with your thoughts. As you walk in primal bliss…slowly the sounds of nature recede. Unnoticeable at first. The sounds of the birds, crickets, and woodpeckers evaporate into utter silence. Even the cool breeze you took for granted is a no-show. You wonder when did it get silent. Was it you?
Off through a slight opening in the trees, you see something shiny. A glint of sunlight in an otherwise pastel living backdrop. You approach and the shiny increases. You know no one else has ever set foot this deep in the uncharted forest. Is that a soda can? A piece of snack wrapper from some adventurous litterer. What is it?
You approach closer. You feel a trickle of sweat down the small of you back. Your mind is playing tricks on you. You get closer and closer…it’s not a soda can. Pupils dilate, pulse quickens, adrenaline gushes into your system. Your brain recoils in disbelief. Half buried in the soft undergrowth is what looks like a classic UFO. A la George Pal in “Earth vs. The Flying Saucers”. You half expect to see Klatu milling around. Nothing moves. All you can hear is your pounding heartbeat. You kick into discovery mode. It looks old. It has been here a very long time judging by the forest overgrowth. Silver-ish in colour. The only explanation is that this is a genuine alien aircraft. You feverishly take your GPS coordinates.
Should you spirit the craft away in your barn in the woods, garage in the meat-packing district, or abandoned subway station. One of the three. Take care to prevent being followed! Prepare to live paranoid. No men in black yet…that is a good sign.
Being science-minded you consider the idea of something like this crashing in the first place. Paradox!
You understand the only option any alien race would have for travel through the unfathomably enormous distances and durations of space-time. To get here with any hope of doing whatever it is you might posit they intend to do they would have to bend space-time.
Ok. So they are folding space and unfolding at their will to travel without any relativistic side effects and without, as such, taking any time to do it. They are essentially popping into existence at will. I know what they are not doing – they’re not flying around in our atmosphere like aircraft. They are not accidentally losing control “in the air” and crashing down in a forest like infant-superman. Their ships don’t have “wings”, they don’t hover over farm houses, probe your ass, kill your cows, fly in formation, or dart through the sky in any way. I would go so far as to say they can be invisible to any spectrum at will. If anything happened they could just pop back instantly home.
Above all else, they don’t crash. They have complete control over what they do. Why? Because all the capabilities I describe above are side effects of being able to fold space at will. The notion of crashing and the notion of bending space-time are incompatible. So something else is afoot.
Now what?
Call a lawyer. Preferably one that is skilled in the law of salvage? Under maritime and aviation law, you may be able to get legal title to whatever is on the alien spacecraft, including intellectual property. This could be extremely valuable. With the help of the lawyer, find reliable witnesses. With them watching, document it in every possible, non-intrusive way — still pictures, audio, and video recordings. Have them provide sworn affidavits as to its existence — this in case someone takes it away from you. Store an encrypted copy of the documentation someplace safe that is nowhere near you.
Could It Be Dangerous?
The technologies contained inside the ship easily has the potential to push humanity into a post-scarcity existence.
Scientists have confirmed that microbes from Earth survived the decontamination process on Earth, survived orbit, and then survived reentry because they were recovered after all that. So your crashed alien ship definitely has alien life on it, of the single-celled variety. Should you touch the thing? But it’s already been sitting on the ground, so anything it’s got has already contaminated the area. Therefore, the human race’s top experts on the dangers of infectious disease should be told about the unprecedented ground zero that just appeared. If anything exotic is found…you should probably take a minute to set your affairs in order because you’re gonna be quarantined indefinitely.
Your mind rushes to a sea of dollar signs. This thing could hold a copy of the Encyclopedia Galactica. Untold technological advances could be yours.
Imagine you are one of the brightest minds in Victorian England. A nuclear submarine is transported back in time – so obviously you start messing around to find what makes it tick. You extract the control rods/drums from the nuclear reactor. You just exposed an active highly radioactive core. No more London – because no one knew about radioactivity back then. It gets worse if we are talking about invasion grade nano grey goo, or terra-forming goo, or Cthulu forbid something like a Kerr black hole energy storage. And that’s just stuff we already know it’s possible. The only place you should experiment with alien technology is past the orbit of Pluto, on an airless rock wired to the biggest, worst bomb you can imagine and rigged to go off if something as much as twitches. Oh, and the rock should be on an escape trajectory from the solar system. But, that would be the smart thing to do, us humans rarely do the smart thing.
But it can be clearly and unmistakably identified as an alien craft, it does at least prove that we are not alone in the universe, which is an enormously important insight in itself. Your task should be, not to use or reverse-engineer the ship, but to make its very existence known.
Document it in every way possible before going public with your discovery. Photographs, films, reliable witnesses etc. etc. It is inevitable that the authorities will snatch the wreck as soon as they learn about it, but make sure they will never be able to put a lid on the story and pretend the whole thing never happened. They may not even try, despite the whole Roswell mythology about how the government will “always” suppress evidence of ET, but with a discovery of this magnitude, you shouldn’t take any chances. The authorities will try to study and reverse-engineer the ship, but as noted, this is almost certainly a futile pursuit. In any case, it is a job best left to the greatest scientists that can be found, not something you should attempt on your own.
What You Should Really Do.
Start by anonymously sharing very basic information about it with possible media outlets, scientists, and businesses. Be careful to maintain your anonymity, and do not mention aliens. Grab a digital camera and start taking as many detailed pictures as you can, ensure all of your pictures are in RAW and JPEG. Ensure that your pictures contain landmarks as well as evidence of the crash site itself there can be no question surrounding either the authenticity or providence of these pictures. Now you have 2 choices. Upload them all, RAW and JPEG, to somewhere they will be disseminated quickly and won’t be able to easily be taken down or removed by fraudulent DMCA notices (perhaps Reddit), or encrypt them and find a way to get them along with a written statement to some reputable journalist before the US Government shows up on your doorstep and you disappear (a la Edward Snowden).
Get feedback from all of those sources to figure out what your options are and who seems to be willing to interact with you in a safe way.
Then, it depends on whether you can separate any part of the craft to show the technology to people to get additional feedback and a sense for where a bigger reveal might land you. If you can’t, then share information carefully. Also, have an online lockbox with evidence and some kind of tracker on the craft that will provide information to your friends. So that in case someone kidnaps you or something else happens, you have some leverage or chance of being saved.
Or… If that’s too complicated, you could do some research on what researchers at a big university would be interested in and able to analyze unknown technology. And then very publicly take it to that university and tell everyone along the way to get a lot of attention, and so that there are a ton of cell phone videos and postings on the net. That way, too many people know about it for an easy cover-up.
If you don’t do these simple things…Beg for your life. Seriously. Start begging. You aren’t begging to the aliens. You are begging to the very nice men and women who are about to show up in the SUVs with tinted windows. They WILL take it from you. They will take any photos or other evidence that you try and keep. And lastly, they will take you.
If you are lucky you will undergo days of interrogation while being in quarantine and to liven up your days it will be interspersed with vigorous invasive medical testing.
After all that your choices are slim. 6-foot hole. 8 by 10 cell. Comfy padded room. Best case scenario, nondisclosure agreement, and release. Worst case scenario your body turns up in a ditch the victim of an apparent suicide.
You have to be smart about all this. Your life will never be the same. It is completely up to you if it will be a long and fruitful life or not.

In a crushing blow to his ego, Michael “Mad Mike” Hughes has once again failed to launch his rocket for flat Earth “research.”
The 61-year-old limo driver previously gained notoriety when he attempted to blast off in the rocket back in November 2017 — a mission he called off at the last minute. This time, Hughes says a problem with the rocket’s actuator caused its ignition to malfunction. Since he wholeheartedly seems to believe the Earth is not round — a fact proven time and again in infinite permutations — it’s hard to say if Hughes actually knows what’s going on with his rocket.
“I’m sorry to disappoint everyone; I did the best I can do,” Hughes says in a video statement released after the failed launch. “I manned up. I got in it.”
In 2014, Hughes blasted himself 1,374 feet in a $20,000 homemade rocket — a feat he claims to have achieved without the help of science.
“I know about aerodynamics and fluid dynamics and how things move through the air, about the certain size of rocket nozzles and thrust,” he told the Associated Press in November 2017. “But that’s not science; that’s just a formula. There’s no difference between science and science fiction.”
It seems after this latest failed attempt, Hughes might be out of the game for good, which would undoubtedly disappoint his sponsors, a group called Research Flat Earth. In addition to technical difficulties with the rocket, Hughes told reporters on Monday that he is suing the governor of California and several public officials, which would complicate his plans for another attempt.
Maybe Hughes’s current outlook is best summarized in this quote he recently gave to the press:
Silpho Moor 'UFO bits' found in Science Museum archive

Image captionThe items found in the Science Museum archives were accompanied by a note reading "alleged UFO bits"
Fragments of a mysterious object dubbed "Britain's answer to Roswell" have been unearthed after being hidden away for decades in a Science Museum archive.
In 1957, newspapers reported a small "copper-bottomed flying saucer" being found on Silpho Moor near Scarborough.
Despite tests finding the object was likely to be terrestrial in origin, the unusual item sparked wide intrigue.
Shards held in the archives have been re-examined after archivists were told of their "cultural significance".
Image copyrightYORKSHIRE POST/MICK GARRATTImage captionThe find on Silpho Moor, near Scarborough, made newspaper headlines in late 1957
Dr David Clarke, a journalism lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University, was invited to study the fragments after giving a talk about the Ministry of Defence's UFO files at the London museum.
Speaking to the BBC, he said the metal object was originally found by three men on moorland weeks after Russia's first Sputnik satellite was launched.
Reports at the time suggested the 18in metallic saucer contained thin copper sheets engraved with unintelligible hieroglyphics.
"It was tinkered with and sliced into tiny pieces to be examined by various people," he said.
Image copyrightJOHN DALEImage captionImages of the "Silpho Saucer" were taken by Dr John Dale in 1958
Doubts about its authenticity were quick to emerge, with tests at the Natural History Museum and the University of Manchester finding it was likely to be an "elaborate hoax".
Despite this, Dr Clarke said, the object created an urban legend, provoking many conspiracy theories.
While at a recent conference about the National Archives, Dr Clarke was told about "alleged UFO bits" lying in a cigarette tin in the museum's collection.
'Massive cultural history'
Khalil Thirlaway, an exhibition developer who showed Dr Clarke the fragments, said: "I had been looking at three or four large folders connected to aviation historian Charles Harvard Gibbs-Smith, who was also a UFO enthusiast, and found these items.
"There's a good chance they are from Silpho Moor, as they correlate to the contemporary descriptions of the find."
Image copyrightDAVID CLARKEImage captionThe Science Museum said it was likely the items in their collections were from Silpho Moor
Dr Clarke said: "He opened the tin box and took out the pieces, it was an amazing revelation - it had just been sitting there for half a century.
"There must be a lot of it still out there, sitting in someone's attic, or maybe these are the last remaining pieces."
He added: "I thought it was a prank, but the question remains - who went to all that trouble at great expense and what did they gain from it?
"It has been described several times as Britain's answer to Roswell, and I don't think that's too great an exaggeration."
Mr Thirlaway said: "We didn't know there was this massive cultural history behind it, it really brought the items to life for us.
"There's a chance they may go on display as we're now aware of their cultural significance."

Ball of Light caught on Alaska Cam
Ball of Light caught on Alaska Cam
A webcam at a weather station in Alaska captured a strange light in the night sky.
The way the ball of light moves is absolutely impressive, it comes into view from the left, after floating in the same place for a while it then shoots into the air like a flash of lightning.
A Russian Soyuz rocket will launch a cargo shipment to the International Space Station (ISS) in record time early Sunday morning (Feb. 11), and you can watch the event live online.
Topped with the Russian Progress 69 cargo resupply ship, the Soyuz will lift off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan at 3:58 a.m. EST (0858 GMT). The Progress spacecraft will then dock at the International Space Station at 7:24 a.m. EST (1224 GMT), completing the rendezvous in a record time of 3 hours and 26 minutes.
A live webcast of the launch will begin at 3:30 a.m. EST (0830 GMT), and you can watch it here on Space.com, courtesy of NASA TV. A live webcast of the spacecraft's docking will follow at 6:30 a.m. EST (1130 GMT).
Russia's space agency, Roscosmos, planned to debut this new fast-track route to the ISS with its last cargo launch of the Progress 68 spacecraft, in October. But a last-minute delay forced the agency to resort to the old two-day rendezvous due to the orbital mechanics involved with reaching the ISS. Postponing that launch meant that Roscosmos missed the launch window to try out the new, shorter rendezvous, NASA officials said.
"If any technical issues are identified by Russian flight controllers in the early stage of the flight, the spacecraft will be capable of defaulting to a standard, two-day rendezvous profile," NASA officials said in a statement.
The Progress 68 cargo craft (top left) is currently docked at the International Space Station. It arrived on Oct. 16, 2017, and is scheduled to depart in March.

Progress cargo ships look a lot like Russia's crewed Soyuz capsules, and Roscosmos has been using the uncrewed spacecraft to send cargo to the ISS since 2000. In 2013, the agency cut the two-day travel time to just 6 hours for both Progress and Soyuz capsules, making the cramped crewed flights to the ISS a little more bearable for the astronauts and cosmonauts on board.
This uncrewed cargo mission will deliver 3 tons of food, fuel and other supplies to the Expedition 54 crew, NASA officials said. The record-breaking flight comes just one week after the two Russian crewmembers at the ISS, Alexander Misurkin and Anton Shkaplerov, set a record for the longest Russian spacewalk.

Over the last decade or so I have continually come across new ancient aliens evidence online – it seems to be gathering pace at an astonishing rate! But to most of us geeks it’s not really news – the evidence has always been around us but most choose not to recognize it…..
1. Hailed as Gods
In most of the online (geek) circles that I hang there is one consensus – aliens landed on earth thousands of years ago and were hailed as gods. They put up a pretty good argument and are always able to point to ancient aliens evidence.
They apparently helped shape civilization to the point where we were not throwing spears at each other (or eating each other) any longer!
Is it so hard to believe when less than two hundred miles away from where I sit writing this there is Stonehenge – the origin of which is still pretty much a mystery (no matter what historians TRY and tell you!).
The video below claims to have the answer to Stonehenge but personally I don’t think having a theory is actually solving anything – it’s more of a guess! Anyway the video has some pretty cool moments so check it out (it’s just over two minutes long!).
2. The Nazca Lines
Pick up any book on the Unexplained and you are bound to be confronted with the Nazca Lines in one of the chapters. Are they to be considered ancient aliens evidence?
They are located in Peru, South America and they are pretty damn impressive! They are etched onto the top of a plateau in the Nazca dessert and historians have been baffled by them for decades.
They are truly awe inspiring and beautiful – how were they made so precise? Along with simple lines and geometric shapes, they include drawings of animals, birds and humans. It’s not just the detail it’s the size to – some of them measure well over 500 ft wide!
Check out this short documentary on the Nazca lines released by the BBC:
Their size means each of the designs can only be witnessed from the air. How did the Nazca people, who inhabited the area between 300 B.C. and 800 A.D. manage this? As far as I know they were not that keen on helicopters made out of stone
Many historians believe that the Nazca Lines prove to be ancient aliens evidence because they are old runways. The long stretching lines and pathways that make up the designs are thought to be used for landing ancient spacecraft (a sort of guide and runway combined!).
3. The Moai of Easter Island
The Polynesian island of Easter Island is a very famous one due to the strange ‘head statues’ or ‘Moai’. They line up along it’s coastline as some sort of show of force – as if they are guarding the island from something.
It is thought these massive stone heads are over 500 years old so who on earth made them? Could tools from the same time period create these impressive busts?
The monolithic head statues stand 13 feet high and weigh 14 tons – did they seriously have the engineering and the know-how to place these heads so precisely along the coastline back then?
Again a lot of theorists turn to them being ancient alien evidence – they were left here for some reason by visitors from the stars!
The video below is entitled Easter Island – The Mystery of the Moai – it covers the subject in a little more detail:
4. Puma Punku
Deep in the Bolivian highlands you will find Puma Punka – a mysterious field of stone made up of very precisely carved rocks.
They are thought to be over 1000 years old and this again begs the question of HOW? How did men of this time manage to carve rocks so precisely with the VERY basic tools they had at the time? Check this out:
Many alien theorists think that aliens actually worked as supervisors when these marvelous stones were being carved.
The strange stones are made out of granite and diorite. Now, granite and diorite are extremely difficult stones to cut – only diamond is harder! How did these stones get shaped in this way? What tools were used?
If you know of any other mysteries that can be classed in the ‘ancient aliens evidence’ category we would love to hear from you. Please leave your contributions in the comment section below…

Awesome UFOs Disguised As Clouds Pass Undetected By Human Eyes, Feb 2018, UFO Sighting News.
Here is a great video of some recent sightings found on a weather phenomenon site this week by MrMBB333 of Youtube. He discusses how some of the things on the site do not resemble things found in nature, but instead have qualities that seem more like alien craft. This is the easiest way to hide from human eyes...mimic something that normally is harmless and in nature.

Many UFOs Bigger Than Our Moon Skimming Surface Of Sun, Feb 2018, Video, UFO Sighting News.
At any given time there are hundreds of UFOs in orbit around our sun, but the orbit is so low that they often skim the surface of the sun. It is widely believed that these UFO are searching out rare and valuable particles of energy that humanity still has yet to discover.

Here is a great summary of some of the most interesting UFO sightings last week.

Managing earthquake risk requires a resilient system of social awareness, education and communications, coupled with effective short- and long-term responses and implemented within an optimally safe built environment.
