Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    UFO's of UAP'S in België en de rest van de wereld
    In België had je vooral BUFON of het Belgisch UFO-Netwerk, dat zich met UFO's bezighoudt. BEZOEK DUS ZEKER VOOR ALLE OBJECTIEVE INFORMATIE , enkel nog beschikbaar via Facebook en deze blog. Verder heb je ook het Belgisch-Ufo-meldpunt en Caelestia, die prachtig, doch ZEER kritisch werk leveren, ja soms zelfs héél sceptisch... Voor Nederland kan je de mooie site www.ufowijzer.nl bezoeken van Paul Harmans. Een mooie site met veel informatie en artikels. MUFON of het Mutual UFO Network Inc is een Amerikaanse UFO-vereniging met afdelingen in alle USA-staten en diverse landen. MUFON's mission is the analytical and scientific investigation of the UFO- Phenomenon for the benefit of humanity... Je kan ook hun site bekijken onder www.mufon.com. Ze geven een maandelijks tijdschrift uit, namelijk The MUFON UFO-Journal. Since 02/01/2020 is Pieter ex-president (=voorzitter) of BUFON, but also ex-National Director MUFON / Flanders and the Netherlands. We work together with the French MUFON Reseau MUFON/EUROP. ER IS EEN NIEUWE GROEPERING DIE ZICH BUFON NOEMT, MAAR DIE HEBBEN NIETS MET ONZE GROEP TE MAKEN. DEZE COLLEGA'S GEBRUIKEN DE NAAM BUFON VOOR HUN SITE... Ik wens hen veel succes met de verdere uitbouw van hun groep. Zij kunnen de naam BUFON wel geregistreerd hebben, maar het rijke verleden van BUFON kunnen ze niet wegnemen...

    Pleiadians vs. Reptilian Underground War! Researcher Says 800,000 Years Ago There Was an Alien War on Our Planet

    COAST TO COAST AM –

    Scholar of ancient cultures, Bruce Fenton, detailed evidence which he believes shows that ancient aliens visited this world almost 800,000 years ago, creating a race of hybrids by genetically altering primitive hominids. Around this time, a spaceship of 50,000 Pleiadian colonists was “crystallized” by an attacking group of Reptilians living underground, he suggested, and the remnants of the liquefied ship rained down on Earth in the form of anomalous spheres, which have been discovered in South Australia.

    A media phenomenon, Coast to Coast AM deals with UFOs, strange occurrences, life after death, and other unexplained (and often inexplicable) phenomena.

    SpaceX Falcon 9 Mission Catches a UFO Live

    On March 18, 2020 Falcon 9 lifted off from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, which was SpaceX sixth launch of Starlink satellites.


    At the moment the first stage coming back to earth an unidentified flying object shoots straight past the rocket.

    Since the object moves upward at high speed while the first stage is on its way back, it indicates that it is likely not a fairing or other part of the rocket.

    Famous UFOlogist Says the World is Completely Unprepared for Possible Alien Invasion

    Nick Pope

    An alien invasion is something humanity entirely unprepared, according to ufologist and former Ministry of Defence UFO investigator Nick Pope. He said that if aliens are drawing up plans toward Earth, then we are the other way around as we don’t have any plans for them. Mr. Pope, the man who has been considered as the real-life Fox Mulder, added that governments around the world have no alien invasion war plan.

    Conspiracy theorists have claimed that there are plans kept secret within the governments, but Mr. Pope insisted there’s none as he would have been responsible for writing it.

    Currently, the world’s greatest scientists are facing a somewhat tangible threat of the coronavirus, which is becoming more than a public health risk as it has the potential to trigger a societal breakdown.

    Mr. Pope pointed out that the arrival of aggressive invasive aliens might bring the same associated threat.

    He stated that extraterrestrial threat or real-life War of the Worlds would not only mean facing the danger of these aliens.

    Nick-Pope-2011.png

    According to Mr. Pope, things can fall apart very quickly in our increasingly complex and interconnected world.  Key points and critical infrastructures could come under pressure as aliens could knock out a grid, people could not get money from the cashpoints, petrol may run out, foods may run out, law and order could break down.

    Mr. Pope explained that this is a worst-case scenario, but it is better to plan for the worst rather than assuming that everything will be fine. He said that it’s ironic people are searching for aliens, but we don’t have a plan for what we do if we find them.

    Triangular UFO filmed hovering above Chicago in third US sighting this year

    The witness claimed the "craft" was government-based and that there "is a reason" for the lack of reports about it

    By Simon Green Video News Editor

    A triangle-shaped UFO has been spotted hovering in the skies above the US city of Chicago, in the third sighting this year.

    The footage shows a camera panning from some high-rise buildings into the cloudy night-time sky.
    There appears to be a formation of lights in a triangle shape hovering in the same place.

    Two women behind the camera can be heard trying to work out what they are, with one suggestion they could just be lights being beamed into the sky.

    But her friend dismisses that explanation, saying: “There are no events going on that would mean it’s a reflection of lights.”

    The video was shared by UFO conspiracy theorist Tales From Out There yesterday.

    Conspiracy theorists think a triangular UFO has been filmed once again in the US

    The witness later explained she and her friend both thought the object was a plane at first.

    But this soon changed. “We then noticed something even stranger,” the onlooker said.

    “It wasn't actually stationary, but appeared to be moving horizontally of the direction a plane would normally move.

    “While a plane moves along the nose and tail, this was moving from what appeared to be a wing.

    “But it was very jarring as it was quiet that night due to the spreading of COVID-19.

    “I personally don’t believe this was extra-terrestrial but government-based. I haven’t been able to find other reports on it and I think there is a reason for that.”

    The sighting comes after similar “crafts” were recorded in Texas since the start of the year.

    But viewers were split over the latest video. Some believed the UFO was proof of a government conspiracy.

    One wrote: “This is why thy want people to stay inside their homes. It's not just the coronavirus.

    “We have been having more sightings in the past few weeks than ever. Pay attention people!”

    Another was more sceptical, though, suggesting it was nothing but “lights from spotlights on the clouds”.

    Prehistoric Ostrich Egg Unravels Clues to Human Life 33,000 Years Ago

    A team of scientists have discovered 33,000-year-old ostrich egg beads in the Lesotho Highlands, about a 1,000 kilometers away from where ostriches roamed. This establishes hitherto unknown prehistoric cultural exchange networks.

    About 33,000 years ago, an ostrich in southern Africa’s Karoo Desert had its lunch of sweet grasses and flowers, then it laid an egg. Later that same night, the egg was lifted by a hunter-gatherer and after it was eaten, pieces of shell were drilled with holes and threaded onto an animal sinew cord and worn as a decorative string of beads. But this particular item of ancient jewelry travelled far to the east of where it was crafted and became treasured by a distant hunter-gatherer group living high in the eastern mountains.

    Pushing Back Prehistoric Exchanges

    Now, 33,000 years after that ostrich egg was laid, stolen, crafted and exchanged, a University of Michigan study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science by paleolithic archaeologist Brian Stewart and colleagues, details the discovery of the beads in what is now Lesotho. Stewart is assistant professor of anthropology and assistant curator of the U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology, and his new paper provides evidence not only for “where” these beads were made, but also for “how long” hunter-gatherers used such things as a kind of “social currency.

    It was by measuring the atomic structure of the beads that details of the exchanging of these ornaments, over such long distances, were shown to have spanned much deeper into prehistory than previously thought. In the new study, which is available to read on PNAS, Stewart said “humans are just outlandishly social animals, and that goes back to these deep forces that selected for maximizing information, information that would have been useful for living in a hunter-gatherer society 30,000 years ago and earlier.”

    A Small Territory at a High Altitude 

    Lesotho is a small, high-altitude country consisting of a matrix of rivers cutting across dramatic mountain ranges, including the 3,482m (11,424 feet)-high peak of Thabana Ntlenyana. This landlocked kingdom is encircled by South Africa , and it has the highest average elevation in the African continent. Stewart said it would have been “a formidable place for hunter-gatherers to live.” However, the quantities of fresh water coursing through the country and its “belts of resources, stratified by the region’s elevation,” served as protection against climate and environmental changes for those who hunted there from as early “as 85,000 years ago,” according to the study.

    Ostrich eggshell beads, and the jewelry items made from them, according to Stewart, are “ Stone Age versions of Facebook or Twitter likes,” in that they affirm connections with exchange partners and alert other groups to the status of those relationships. Anthropologists know that contemporary hunter-gatherers used ostrich eggshell beads as offerings to establish and cement relationships with other groups, and in Lesotho, archaeologists have found small ornaments made of ostrich eggshell, but no evidence exists of those ornaments having been made there.

    Tracking the Ostrich Beads Origins

    Finding eggshell beads “without” any evidence of production, the researchers ‘assumed’ that they had got to Lesotho through ancient exchange networks and testing their ‘suspicions’, the beads were examined using strontium isotope analysis. What this means is that the eggshell composition was analyzed to determine what and where the creature had been eating.

    When animals graze strontium isotopes are absorbed into their tissues, and in this case in an eggshell, and Lesotho is situated in the Karoo Supergroup, which was created by relatively recent volcanic eruptions that formed the Lesotho Highlands. The researchers measured how much strontium was available in vegetation and soil samples, as well as rodent tooth enamel samples from museum specimens collected from across Lesotho and surrounding areas. They discovered that nearly 80% of the beads “could not” have originated from ostriches living near the highlands where the beads were found.

    The egg matched the strontium found in much older sedimentary rocks that surround the supergroup, the outermost ring of which is 325 (201 mi) and 1,000 (621 mi) kilometers away from the Lesotho sites, determining that the beads were exchanged during climactic upheaval, “about 59 to 25 thousand years ago.”

    Around 50,000 years ago, according to Stewart, the climate was going through “enormous swings” and he thinks it might be no coincidence that that’s when this type of technology began. He thinks this exchange network was perhaps used for transferring “information” about the whereabouts of natural resources, the conditions of landscapes, animals, plant foods and other people, and perhaps for securing “marriage partners.”

    Essentially, these ancient ostrich beads establish that relationships developed between hunter-gatherer groups, ensured shared resources, so that when one region’s climatology turned bad, they could lean on the other’s stock pots.

    Huge 1,500-Year-Old Arrowhead Released From Melting Glacier

    Archaeologists in Norway have uncovered a 1,500-year-old iron arrowhead in a melting glacier.

    The team of investigators inspecting Jotunheimen, a massive melting Norwegian glacier, have so far found over 2000 relics and now an arrowhead dating back to the Germanic Iron Age. Measuring seven inches long and weighing little over an ounce ‘ Climate Change ’ is being held responsible for revealing the ancient Viking's missed shot that had been embedded in a glacier for 1,500 years.

    An Ancient Landscape of Unspeakable Beauty

    The ancient Germanic Iron Age arrowhead was forged in iron and was discovered with its arrow shaft, and even a feather from its flight, locked in a glacier in southern Norway. The team of scientists noted that climate change has made its way to the Jotunheimen glacier and the warmer air temperature is causing the ice to melt which in turn freed the ancient artifacts.

    Secrets Of The Ice@brearkeologi

    Yesterday we posted a photo of a very large arrowhead from c. AD 500 found on one of our ice sites. Here is a video taken moments after it was discovered, showing both the projectile point and the arrowshaft close to the melting ice. We ❤️ glacial archaeology🙂

    Embedded video
    • 89 people are talking about this

    According to a report in GlacierHub.org, anthropologist Shoshi Parks, said three national parks converge in this region of central Norway, but “Jotunheimen is arguably the most spectacular, having 250 peaks over 1,900 meters high [one mile]” including Galdhøpiggen and Glittertind which are the two tallest in northern Europe. And furthermore, in a Daily Mail article the archaeologist descries the region as having “alpine lakes and shimmering turquoise glaciers, chequering an ancient landscape of unspeakable beauty.”

    Climate Change Can ‘Reverse’ Archaeology

    A Feb 2019 article in Norway Today said 2018 was a very bad year for the Norwegian glaciers which retreated “33 meters on average in the course of last year alone,” which according to  heat records  represented “the greatest decline since the measurements began.” With many of the nation’s glaciers experiencing dramatic melting over the past few years experts say this is being accelerated by climate change which is causing archaeologists to uncover ice-locked relics, but conversely, this situation will also destroy any artifacts that are not discovered in time.

    Last year, the archaeological team excavating Jotunheimen found an ancient snowshoe for horses, which is estimated to date back to the Viking Age or the Medieval Period, and more than 2,000 artifacts have been found at the glaciers with the oldest being around 6,000 years old. The artifacts include man-made items like hunting tools, textiles, leather and clothing, as well as zoological remains like antlers, bones, and dung. But Lars Pilø, who is part of the Glacier Archaeology Program told CNN that “rapid melting causes bits and pieces of human history to “melt out in reverse time order.”

    But The Arctic Is Also Warming

    According to an article in Smithsonian Magazine Norway is not the only place where climate change is causing archaeological artifacts to emerge from ice, as Marissa Fessenden wrote for smithsonian.com in 2015, “bodies of soldiers lost during World War I have emerged from the Alps and Incan mummies have emerged from glaciers in the Andes.” National Geographic say melting permafrost in southwest Alaska has released “2,500 artifacts, including woven baskets and wooden masks” and while there are countless negative impacts of the changing climate, the recovery of these artifacts “could be an unexpected positive.”

    Jørgen Hollesen, a researcher at the National Museum of Denmark, told Glacier Hub that melting ice is threatening archaeological artifacts locked in glaciers and that climate change is presenting different problems in the Arctic Circle. A 2018  study, coauthored by Hollesen, found there were around “180,000 registered archaeological sites in the Arctic” dating from the Stone Age to the medieval and more recent but there are also “settlements, cemeteries, churches and fishing villages of Norse, European, Inuit and Sami people .”

    Climate-change related events are destroying a wide range of cultural sites with the resultant coastal erosion, landslides and melting permafrost and sea ice permits fierce waves and storms direct access to coastlines. What seems to be rising, or melting, from all this, is that our uncertain climate ‘future’ may inadvertently help archaeologists better understand our ‘past’.

    Dark Matter Might Have Accidentally Been Discovered in 2014

    What is dark matter? No one knows. But it’s there, apparently, making up the vast majority of the mass of the universe. Or at least, that’s what the math says. Now some scientists think that the math might be wrong, and there might be another explanation for the apparent density of the universe. In some ways that’s a more likely scenario. After all, every one of science’s attempts to detect and conclusively prove the existence of dark matter has failed. Despite this lack of conclusive proof, the vast majority of physicists believe that dark matter is real and it does make up the majority of the universe. It’s just finding it that’s the problem.

    Well, like a lot of impossible-to-find things, dark matter may have already been found. According to a  paper recently published in the Journal of Physics G by physicists Mikhail Bashkanov and Daniel Watts, dark matter may be made of a subatomic particle called a d*(2380) hexaquark, or “d-star,” a six-sided quark which was probably discovered by German scientists in 2014. Quarks and gluons are the bizarre subatomic particles that form protons and neutrons.

    Dark matter is thought to make up 85% of the universe.

    Most other explanations for dark matter revolve around new and never-before-observed particles that lie outside the Standard Model of physics. But Bashkanov and Watts believe that dark matter might be made of these “d-star” quarks. On their own, the d-star quarks couldn’t explain dark matter. They would decay much too quickly. But Bashkanov and Watts believe that during a brief period of time at the beginning of the universe, these quarks could have formed together in a type of matter called a Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC).

    If this were true, it would explain why we can’t find dark matter. It would be impossible for us to interact with. The Bose-Einstein Condensate would have mass, but no electromagnetic charge. The force that keeps objects separate and allows interaction between them (like my fingers pressing the keys on my keyboard without going right through my computer) is the electromagnetic force holding the atoms together. A d-star BEC, the physicists write, could theoretically be perfectly neutral with no electromagnetic charge. Without that, dark matter would pass through other matter like a ghost without ever interacting with it. It would, however, exert a gravitational pull on the outside universe.

    There was only a brief period in our universe’s life when this type of dark matter could have been made. In the time immediately after the Big Bang, the universe was a soup of quark-gluon plasma that hadn’t yet solidified into the particles that make up the known universe. Eventually, the universe cooled and the quark-gluon soup solidified into more stable particles. Bashkanov and Watts say this transitional period had all the right conditions for some of the d-star hexaquarks to form the hypothetical Bose-Einstein Condensate that we now call dark matter.

    If this is the explanation for dark matter, the scientists say that we may be able to detect it. While BECs are extremely long-lived, they do sometimes decay around Earth. Bashkanov and Watts say that the decay of the dark matter BECs would have a particular signature that would look as if it was coming from every direction at once. Now, they say, the next step is to look for that signature.

    Has the mystery been solved? Who knows. It’s worth pointing out again that literally every other time someone has said they knew how to detect dark matter, they’ve been completely wrong.

    NASA Believes Alien Life May Be Hiding in Caves on Mars

    Aaron Kesel, The Mind Unleashed
    Waking Times

    Afficher l’image source

    NASA scientists believe that if there is life on Mars it is likely to be found inside the red planet’s caves.

    According to Space.com, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory research scientist Vlada Stamenković explained the Martian underground life theory at a recent astronomy conference. There were other astrobiologists and experts in attendance who expressed the theory and agreed that the best places to look for life on Mars are the subterranean caves and the salt and ice.

    Speaking at the Mars Extant Life event at the National Cave and Karst Research Institute in Carlsbad, New Mexico last November, Stamenković reportedly stated, “The surface of Mars is a very oxidizing, radiation-heavy environment where liquid water is not really stable for an extended amount of time.

    It’s the worst place to look for life-sites on Mars,” Stamenković said. “Groundwater might be the only habitat for extant life on Mars if it still exists today.”

    The surface of Mars is very cold and dry. There is a lot of radiation on the red planet making it mostly inhabitable for current known organisms. Although, Space.com notes that there has been recent discoveries about life in extreme environments here on Earth.

    More than 1,000 possible cave entrances have been mapped on Mars by the U.S .Geological Survey’s (USGS) Astrogeology Science Center just recently, Scientific American reported.

    Some scientists believe that flexible robots should be created that could explore the cave systems on Mars. Yet that would be very costly to accomplish.

    Instead, Stamenković suggested that NASA use a rover that could sense underground groundwater or chemicals associated with life from the surface.

    NASA intends to send its 2,260 pound Perseverance rover to Mars later this year to gather samples of potential life that is either alive or extinct and then send it back to Earth for vigorous testing.

    Scientists have long known that there is water in the form of underground ice at the Martian poles. But the poles are a harsh environment – a cold place on a planet where the summer daytime temperature at the equator can approach a balmy 70 ºF, but the night time temperatures in the same location and on the same day can swing to -100 ºF. Winter temperatures on the Martian poles can get as low as -195 ºF. So, settling on the Martian poles to get at water isn’t in the cards,” Don Lincoln, a senior scientist at Fermilab, America’s flagship particle physics laboratory, previously wrote in Forbes.

    Robots have been scoping out Mars for years investigating the surface for signs of past life and evidence of water while orbiters circling around Mars image and map out the planet. Underground martian ice was discovered by the Mars Odyssey orbiter (MOO) and then followed up on by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO).

    Then in 2015, NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) provided strong evidence that liquid water flows intermittently on present-day Mars, according to NASA.

    Finally in 2019, it was published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters that ice could be just an inch beneath the surface of the planet. NASA mapped out the entire planet’s water and ice locations last year. These areas of Mars housing water or ice near caves may be where extraterrestrial life lies in the form of microbial life and maybe even undiscovered still yet unknown organisms. But we better hurry up, as the desolate planet of Mars is quickly evaporating water from the surface.

    Key UFO Seen Over Massachusetts This Week, Video, UFO Sighting News.


    Date of sighting: March 8, 2020
    Location of sighting: Plymouth County, Massachusetts, USA

    This key shaped UFO was seen over MA this week. The object seems to be made up of separate parts. The eyewitness called it many black orbs together. That may be so. My first though its its many black balloons tied together so they can't fly away, however they should not be lined up like this and if it were balloons it would not be able to accelerate and speed away, as the eyewitness says. Alien orbs however might take a shape bundling together like this and following each other in a hive like states. Odd for sure. Wish we had better video of it, more focused video would help us solve this immediately. Perhaps others have also recorded it. Time will tell. 

    Scott C. Waring 

    Eyewitness states: 

    The object flew parallel to our heads, I would say no further than the length of a football fieldaway from us. I saw that it was about the size of a helicopter, if not larger, but couldn't tell what it was. That is why I took my camera out and began filming. By the time I got my phone out, the object had already begun accelerating away from us. While it may appear to be hovering in the video, it is actually traveling forward at a great deal of speed.

    Something Big Is Coming Our Way

    According to Brazilian sky-watcher Tio Abadom an intrusive celestial body is being monitored by space telescopes and ground telescopes around world. The unknown object, currently near the planets Jupiter and Saturn seems to accelerate on average.


    Coincidence or not but last week, a strange sky phenomenon has been captured in Trenton, New Jersey by Alonzo Ent, who was able to capture some sort of celestial object close to the sun (often called as a second sun).

    Alonzo, who is an experienced cameraman stated: "It was moving extremely fast and although it was very hard to pull focus, I was able to keep it some what, steady... It only lasted about 5 minutes and then gone."

    Although Tio talks about the infamous planet Nibiru we may wonder whether it could be a giant alien mothership.

    Could it be that what is happening now on Earth is a direct link to this unidentified space object?

    Archean Earth Was Covered by Global Ocean, New Study Suggests

    The surface of Earth was likely covered by a global ocean 3.24 billion years ago (Archean Eon), according to a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience.

    “Our findings could help scientists to better understand how and where single-cell organisms first emerged on Earth,” said Dr. Boswell Wing, a researcher in the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder.

    “The history of life on Earth tracks available niches. If you’ve got a waterworld, a world covered by ocean, then dry niches are just not going to be available.”

    In the study, Dr. Wing and colleagues examined 3.24-billion-year-old hydrothermally altered oceanic crust from the Panorama district in the Pilbara Craton of Western Australia.

    “There are no samples of really ancient ocean water lying around, but we do have rocks that interacted with that seawater and remembered that interaction,” said Dr. Benjamin Johnson, a scientist at Iowa State University.

    “The process is like analyzing coffee grounds to gather information about the water that poured through it.”

    To do that, the researchers analyzed data from more than 100 rock samples from across the dry terrain.

    They were looking, in particular, for two different isotopes of oxygen trapped in stone: a slightly heavier atom called oxygen-18 and a lighter one called oxygen-16.

    They discovered that the ratio of those two isotopes of oxygen may have been a bit off in seawater 3.24 billion years ago — with just a smidge more oxygen-18 atoms than you’d see today.

    “Though these mass differences seem small, they are super sensitive,” Dr. Wing said.

    Sensitive, it turns out, to the presence of continents.

    “Today’s land masses are covered by clay-rich soils that disproportionately take up heavier oxygen isotopes from the water — like mineral vacuums for oxygen-18,” Dr. Wing said.

    The study authors theorized that the most likely explanation for that excess oxygen-18 in the ancient oceans was that there simply weren’t any soil-rich continents around to suck the isotopes up. That doesn’t mean, however, that there weren’t any spots of dry land around.

    “There’s nothing in what we’ve done that says you can’t have teeny, micro-continents sticking out of the oceans,” Dr. Wing said.

    “We just don’t think that there were global-scale formation of continental soils like we have today.”

    Which leaves a big question: when did plate tectonics push up the chunks of rock that would eventually become the continents we know and love?

    The scientists aren’t sure. But they’re planning to scour other, younger rock formations at sites from Arizona to South Africa to see if they can spot when land masses first roared onto the scene.

    “Trying to fill that gap is really important,” Dr. Johnson said.

    Star Trek fans go wild over Texas UFO showing square 'Borg cube' in the clouds

    Star Trek fans fear resistance is futile after a UFO video appears to show the hated robot baddies invading Earth above the top secret White Sans US base

    By Berny Torre

    Star Trek fans are going wild for a Texas UFO video that seems to depict a perfectly square "Borg cube" appearing from the clouds above.

    The clip, filmed close to the top secret White Sands US base several years ago, clearly shows a strange object in the sky that looks just like the horror aliens’ spaceship in the hit sci-fi series.

    It comes as the hated robot baddies currently star in the hit new Picard series on Amazon Prime.

    Thousands of Star Trek fans have been sharing the UFO video after it was posted on ufosightingsfootage.uk

    The Borg coined the show's catchphrase "Resistance is futile" and turn people into drones.

    "Borg cube" appears above White Sands US base 

    Jack Greminger said on Facebook: "It's a Borg cube, we're doomed I tell you, doomed. Resistance is futile."

    Sebastian Meusel added: "No it's the Borg, we are all going to be drones... where is my cat I don't want him to be assimilated."

    And Mike Drennan said: "It's the Borg, but when they arrived and saw what we were like as a species, they had no interest in adding our biological and technological distinctiveness to their own and immediately left."

    The UFO website shared a 2015 clip which was shared by YouTube channel secureteam10.

    "Borg cube" appears above White Sands US base 

    It starts with images of the black cube emerging clouds over El Paso from "a black hole type portal".

    A narrator claims two independent witnesses confirmed the sightings.

    El Paso resident Walter C Lands captured the footage on his phone and said: "It began to get very windy out and I noticed a small portion of clouds begin to swirl and circle in on each other forming a portal shape - at which point the portal became jet black."

    A second eye-witness, an accountant who did not wish to be named, also took a picture of the skies over El Paso. She said: "I noticed a square-shaped figure.

    "It was a giant solid thing with designs around it and a faint magnetic oscillation type humming."

    "Borg cube" appears above White Sands US base 

    The secureteam10 narrator said: "We've got a doozy for you today.

    "The images you see right now were sent into us by a source named Walter C Lance of El Paso, Texas, who thankfully snapped the images ... of what can only be described as a massive three-dimensional cube shape UFO.

    "In the first image it can be seen almost shooting out at a pretty fair rate of speed at what looks like a massive black hole type portal or opening in within the the sky and surrounding clouds.

    "The very fact that this UFO arrived by jumping through a suddenly appearing black hole in the sky leads us to believe that this isn't man-made."

    The asteroid Ryugu has a texture like freeze-dried coffee

    This porous space rock could reveal details of how planets formed

    The Hayabusa2 spacecraft measured the maximum temperatures during one full rotation of the asteroid Ryugu and found that most of the asteroid stays cool. Blue regions are around 300 kelvins (27° Celsius) and yellow are around 330 kelvins (57° C). Just a few hot spots, in red, were dense boulders that reached 360 kelvins (87° C).

    T. OKADA ET AL/NATURE 2020

    “It is something like freeze-dry coffee,” says planetary scientist Tatsuaki Okada of the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency. If early protoplanets had similar structures, that could mean planets formed quickly.

    As an ancient, carbon-rich asteroid, Ryugu is thought to be a time capsule of solar system history. To read that history, Hayabusa2 explored Ryugu from June 2018 to November 2019, and grabbed two samples from the asteroid to bring back to Earth (SN: 7/11/19).

    Hayabusa2 observed how the asteroid’s surface retained and released heat, a clue to its composition and structure. Dense rocks take in heat slowly and hold that heat for longer; more porous rocks change temperature quickly, like sand on a beach.

    Ryugu’s heat map shows that it’s about 50 percent porous, meaning half of it is holes, Okada and colleagues report. Even most of the asteroid’s large boulders appear porous.

    That airiness fits with the idea that Ryugu is a rubble pile formed after the breakup of a larger body some 700 million years ago (SN: 3/20/19). But the new observations suggest that parent body might have been porous, too.

    “This might be common for the asteroids and even for planetesimals in the early solar system,” Okada says.

    If  true, it could have big implications for how quickly planets formed. Planetary scientists think the early solar system was a violent place, with protoplanets colliding, breaking up and re-accumulating all the time. Porous protoplanets might fall apart and come together again more easily than dense ones, Okada says. That means “the timescale of planetary formation may be changed drastically,” and planets might have formed faster than scientists thought, he says.

    This is one of the largest Ice Age structures made of mammoth bones

    Hunter-gatherers in what’s now Russia constructed the massive ring around 25,000 years ago

    mammoth bone structure

    Bones from at least 60 mammoths went into constructing this giant ring, one of the oldest and largest Ice Age structures made of the animals’ bones, a study finds.

    A. PRYOR ET AL/ANTIQUITY 2020

    Excavations at Russia’s Kostenki 11 site have uncovered one of the oldest and largest Ice Age structures made of mammoth bones. Hunter-gatherers assembled bones from at least 60 mammoths into an imposing ring around 25,000 years ago, say archaeologist Alexander Pryor of the University of Exeter in England and colleagues.

    Building this structure, which measures about 12.5 meters across, required a huge investment of time and energy, the scientists report in the April Antiquity. Bones may have come from hunted mammoths or from carcasses of animals that died of natural causes. Sieving of soil samples identified charred wood from fires set inside the ring, but it’s unclear how its makers used the structure, Pryor’s team says.

    A. PRYOR

    Circular mammoth bone structures, most dating to no more than 22,000 years ago, previously have been found across eastern Europe and western Russia (SN: 12/13/86). Researchers have often assumed that these constructions, including two others found at Kostenki 11 in the 1950s and 1960s, housed people during harsh winters.

    The new discovery challenges that idea. A large, open space in the bone ring appears unsuitable for long-term occupation, in part because it would have been difficult to roof, Pryor’s group says. And only a few stone tools were found. Ice Age hunter-gatherers may have stored food or conducted ritual ceremonies in their mammoth creation, the researchers speculate.

    “The sheer number of bones that our Paleolithic ancestors had sourced from somewhere and brought to this particular location to build this monument is really quite staggering,” said Alexander Pryor, an archaeologist at the University of Exeter in England. “It does boggle my mind.”

    Alexander Dudin, a researcher from the Kostenki Museum-Preserve, and a team of scientists began excavating the 25,000-year-old mammoth-bone circle in 2014 at a site called Kostenki 11, which is 300 miles south of Moscow. It is the third structure uncovered at the site. The discovery was published Monday in the journal Antiquity.

    Archaeologists have unearthed about 70 mammoth-bone structures across Eastern Europe. But this one is the oldest on the Russian plain thought to be made by modern humans. Most of the previously identified structures were small, leading researchers to conclude they were most likely used as winter dwellings on a nearly treeless landscape.

    But the researchers said this circle was too large for a roof, which might suggest it was used for a different purpose.

    “There are more than 60 mammoths in this one structure” said David Beresford-Jones, an environmental archaeologist at the University of Cambridge and an author on the paper. He added, “It doesn’t make much sense, really, as a house.”

    The team suggested that the hunter-gatherers instead may have butchered massive mammoth carcasses at the site and then stored the meat and fat in nearby permafrost as if in an ancient refrigerator.

    Dr. Pryor arrived at Kostenki 11 in 2015 and quickly went shoeless, tiptoeing so that he wouldn’t crush any of the hundreds of mammoth bones scattered around the site. The ring, which also included ribs, jaws and leg bones, had probably been piled 20 inches high before collapsing thousands of years ago, he said.

    The team collected sediment samples from inside the bone circle and from three large pits located outside.

    Through further processing, they identified more than 400 charcoal pieces, evidence of wood-burning. The charcoal came from conifers such as spruce, larch and pine, suggesting that trees still grew in the harsh, frozen environment. They also radiocarbon-dated the charcoal, which further supported that the site was about 25,000 years old.

    They also found burned mammoth bones, which indicated that the Paleolithic people were probably starting fires with wood and then using the beasts’ greasy bones to feed the flames. Bone-fueled fires burn brighter than wood fires, but spread less warmth.

    “You won’t produce a nice good fire for roasting your mammoth meat on,” Dr. Beresford-Jones said. But the flames would have allowed the hunter-gatherers to work through the night to hastily strip meat off mammoth bones before hungry wolves and foxes arrived to try to seize the haul.

    The team also uncovered plant material similar to what is seen in modern parsnips, carrots and potatoes. This suggested that the Paleolithic people may have supplemented their mammoth meals with vegetable side dishes.

    Mietje Germonpré, an archaeozoologist at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences in Brussels, and who was not involved in the study, called the paper a “truly unique discovery,” and said its findings were sound.

    Paul Pettitt, an archaeologist at Durham University in England, applauded the team for the methods they used to recover ancient charcoal from the dirt. But he said it could not be ruled out that the structure might have been used as a cozy home during the long winters, which could reach minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit.

    The team acknowledged that they did not fully solve the mystery of how the mammoth-bone circle was used. They still do not know whether the hunter-gatherers killed or scavenged the beasts, how long the location was used or if it held any ritualistic importance.

    “These woolly-mammoth circular structures are really enigmatic, but they are hugely impressive,” Dr. Pryor said. “They speak to a time when our human ancestors were battling against the coldest and harshest and most difficult point of the last glacial cycle in Europe.”

    Mysterieuze constructie uit ijstijd met botten van 60 mammoets opgegraven in Rusland - HLN.be

    Bron: CNN

    Met de beenderen van zo'n 60 mammoets werd een constructie opgezet in de ijstijd.

     Alexander Pryor 
    Met de beenderen van zo'n 60 mammoets werd een constructie opgezet in de ijstijd.
     Een nieuw ‘mammoethuis’ is opgedoken in Rusland. Het is het oudste en het grootste tot nu toe. Zo’n 25.000 jaar geleden maakten jager-verzamelaars met honderden botten van 60 mammoets een grote cirkelvormige constructie van 12,5 meter doorsnede. Waarom, dat weet niemand.

    In de jaren 60 en 70 vonden onderzoekers al gelijkaardige maar kleinere constructies op dezelfde site, Kostenki 11, 500 km ten zuiden van Moskou. Het is inmiddels een museum.

    In 2014 botsten archeologen op de nieuwe constructie op de site. Een jaar later begonnen de opgravingen, die drie jaar zouden duren. Pas deze week werden de bevindingen van de wetenschappers gepubliceerd in het vakblad Antiquity.

    De beenderen van de mammoets komen uit de ijstijd. Ze werden in het verleden al in Oost-Europa aangetroffen. Tot nu toe werden de oudste beenderen gedateerd op 22.000 jaar geleden. De nieuwe fossielen zijn zo’n 25.000 jaar oud.

     Alexander Pryor

    Mogelijk dienden de constructies als huizen die hen beschermden tijdens de harde winters. De temperaturen konden dan zakken tot -20 graden. Dat zou een verrassende verklaring zijn, omdat de jager-verzamelaars uit de ijstijd nooit lang op dezelfde plaats bleven en zo’n bouwconstructie heel wat tijd in beslag moet hebben genomen. “Mammoetbotten zijn erg zwaar, en het bouwen van de cirkelvormige structuur was een enorme investering in tijd en energie”, legt Alexander Pryor, hoofdauteur en archeoloog aan de Universiteit van Exeter, uit.

    De archeologen vonden 51 kaken en 64 schedels van mammoets. De ronde had geen duidelijke ingang. Binnen de cirkel was er bewijs dat er hout verbrand werd, maar verder geen aanwijzingen dat er mensen langere tijd in verbleven. Daarom denken de onderzoekers dat het niet dienst deed als winterverblijf. “Het betekende duidelijk iets voor hen en het had hoogstwaarschijnlijk met een ritueel te maken, ook al had de constructie blijkbaar ook een praktisch doel”, aldus Pryor.

    Alien Base Found On Mars Moon Phobos, ESA Source! UFO Sighting News.


    Location of discovery: Mars Moon Phobos
    Source ESA Photo: 
    Buzz Aldrin gave a interview on C-Span about 7 years ago where he stated, "visit the moon on Mars. Theres a monolith there. A very unusual structure on this little potato shaped object that goes around Mars once every 7 hours. When people find out about that, they are going to say, who put that there? Who put that there? Well, if you choose, the universe put it there."

    Needless to say, this got me and other UFO researchers excited years ago, so we have all been looking, searching for this Buzz Aldrin Monolith he speaks of. 


    Last night, I decided to take a look at the ESA site and the first photo I came across was in HD...and was of the Mars moon Phobos. This ESA image was just put up for the public to see on Dec 6, 2016, so its the newest out. There was only 25% of the moon visible because there was a shadow over its other 25%. I thought I could add light to the HD photo in order to explore the other 25% and low and behold, I made a huge discovery...the Buzz Aldrin monolith. 


    Its much bigger than any of us thought. We all assumed that the monolith was this tall rectangular structure that was found about 5 years ago, but it wasn't. That was nothing. This new structure is very big, and must have been smudged out using photoshop on most other Phobos photos in existence. The ESA editors must have missed this one, because its 100% evidence that aliens have constructed it and used the Mars moon as a space station...and may be controlling the moon, its orbit, speed even today. 


    Phobos is 7 miles in radius, thats 11km. So if we use this full photo of Phobos and compare it to the structure, we find that the structures length is 1/5 that of Phobos, meaning the structure or ship is approximately 1.4 miles long or 2.2km. Thats huge! Buzz was right!

    Ancient Bottle Found Near Mars Rover, How Could NASA Ignore It? Video, UFO Sighting News.

    Location of sighting: Mars 
    Source photo: 
    Looking though the gigapan Mars photos, I found something that closely resembles an ancient clay bottle. Its very similar to this 2,000 year old Roman bottle which I include into the photo for you to compare. Again I am showing you a NASA Mars photo which has been altered by NASA into a False Color...which makes the surface look red and brown. But in reality, Mars surface looks more similar to a desert on Earth. NASA adds False Color to hide from the public the fact that Mars is more hospitable than they want you to know. This way, there is no other country racing to Mars and NASA will have no competition...which gives them a lot of time to get there.

    US General Warns of ‘Sinister Force' Scouting Earth

    General Douglas MacArthur was an American war hero and one of the most popular armed service members of the 1940s and 50s.


    But what few know about him is his strong interest in the UFO phenomenon, so much so that he warned of "sinister forces" beyond Earth three different times publicly in the last 15 years of his life.

    Two of these warnings were given in speeches — the rarely heard audio is presented in this video.

    So, what do you think? Was MacArthur's warning that UFOs were scouting Earth for future invasion just paranoia? Or could it have been a driver of early efforts to militarize space?
