Astronauts Capture OUT OF THIS WORLD Object – Space Junk or UFO?”
Astronauts Capture OUT OF THIS WORLD Object – Space Junk or UFO?”
Two astronauts capture a strange object orbiting the International Space Shuttle, in this clip from Season 2, “Malaysian Toilet Monster & The Buzzer.”
This Is Not An Alien UFO From Outer Space, This Is Actually a Top-Secret Anti-Gravity Plane Called TR-3B Original source https://news-intact.com/this-is-not-an-alien-ufo-from-outer-space-this-is-actually-a-top-secret-anti-gravity-plane-called-tr-3b/?fbcl
This Is Not An Alien UFO From Outer Space, This Is Actually a Top-Secret Anti-Gravity Plane Called TR-3B
In the instance of the TR-3B Black Manta, it refers to a craft that employs highly pressurized mercury propelled by nuclear energy to make plasma, which produces an anti-gravity field surrounding the craft.
Its motive power system has an electromagnetic coil, which produces an electromagnetic drive that interacts with the Higgs-Boson field at the quantum level. It’s all quite interesting!
So, instead of using a traditional turbine or rocket engine, an anti-gravity aircraft uses a propulsion system that generates thrust by creating high-energy plasma. ‘Flux liners’ is another name for these planes.
Anti-gravity technology, like many other diverse aviation technologies, may be traced back to the late stages and aftermath of World War II, notably the clandestine US initiative known as Operation Paperclip.
The goal of Operation Paperclip was for the United States to obtain as much leverage as possible over the Soviet Union in the military weapons technology race, which is why the operation was crammed to the rafters with Nazi-affiliated German experts.
That implies the United States has spent over 70 years researching anti-gravity technologies.
It is the culmination of ideas about gravity, quantum gravity, and general relativity, the latter of which was initially proposed by Albert Einstein himself.
Anti-gravity is of great interest to both the military and scientists because it is theoretically possible to lower an aircraft’s mass to zero by employing electromagnetic propulsion.
It’s no surprise that organizations like NASA, the US Air Force, and Lockheed Martin have all engaged in theoretical research into the potential to change inert mass.
The TR-3B Black Manta, according to analysts, would utilize conventional thrusters situated at the aircraft’s tips to allow it to conduct a dizzying amount of quick high-speed maneuvers.
Perfect right-angle turns and rapid acceleration are among the features available. And it could do so along with all three of its axes.
Remember, the TR-3B was built to be a stealthy subsonic surveillance plane.
For one thing, other than a minor humming sound, it’s a pretty quiet airplane. The TR-3B’s plasma has the unique side effect of dramatically lowering the aircraft’s radar signal, making it perfect for missions when stealth is critical.
As a result, the TR-3B Black Manta could fly into almost any country’s airspace without being noticed by its air traffic control or air defense systems.
This little black number has been linked to many sightings of flying triangular aircraft above Antelope Valley, a desert region in southern California popular with UFO enthusiasts.
Given its closeness to many known military research and testing facilities, this desert area of California also attracts those interested in clandestine black projects or “black operations aircraft projects.”
Edwards Air Force Base and USAF Plant 42, the latter of which is only 60 miles (97 kilometers) from Los Angeles.
In my perspective, the US Air Force should thank its fortunate stars for UFO enthusiasts and extraterrestrial spacecraft believers.
After all, as reported by Popular Mechanics, a lot of claims of so-called black triangle UFOs were most likely covert military aircraft.
The TR-3B Black Manta would undoubtedly be a standard black operations project for the United States Air Force and Navy.
The 1950s U2 espionage plane, the 1980s SR-71 jet, and today’s F-117A stealth craft are just three examples of planes that the US Air Force denied existed for years, all of which were originally secretly created at Nevada’s infamous Area 51 station.
Let’s not forget that Area 51 was only formally confirmed by the US government in June 2013, thanks to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request made eight years prior. Is it, however, real?
Of course, there are claims that the TR-3B was developed by the military utilizing reverse-engineered alien technology.
Even Forbes magazine speculated in 2021 that the patents granted to Salvatore Cezar Pais may be a cover for extraterrestrial technology obtained by the US military over the years.
So, how’s the TR-3B Black Manta doing? Is there a way to find out how far back it goes, if at all?
Is it connected to the aforementioned 2018 patent granted to Pais and the United States Navy?
Is it an aircraft, a bird, or even Superman himself?
No, it’s simply the US Air Force playing with our minds once more.
An exciting radio signal from outer space has been spotted by the Juno mission.
Less than a week after the Juno mission was officially re-extended for another 5 years, it has once again hit the headlines with a massive discovery. This time, however, it is not about Jupiter. The latest news are connected to the gas giant’s largest moon – Ganymede. As the report goes, Juno has intercepted an FM radio signal coming from the moon.
Having seen all the recent news about radio signals from space, can’t we, for once, hear a confirmation that it is of extraterrestrial origin and it actually means something? Unfortunately, this one from Ganymede will not be it either since NASA officials are convinced it is of natural essence.
If you need the scientific name, the signal was a “decametric radio emission” but we actually know it by its much more widespread name – Wi-Fi. The range of the frequency corresponds to that used by our Earthly signals.
FM Radio Signal
The radio signal from Ganymede lasted only 5 seconds but this is mainly due to the high speed at which Juno was passing. Credit: Louis et al. [2020]
The FM radio signal was detected when Juno was orbiting near Jupiter’s polar regions close to the magnetic field that connects with Ganymede. As for the actual source, scientists believe that it was caused by electrons that were oscillating slower than their normal rate. This process is called cyclotron maser instability.
It has long been known that radio waves exist on Jupiter but never before have such been intercepted from its moons. Although it is not of alien origin, the simple fact that it is the first such radio signal from Ganymede makes it no less significant.
Once again, Ganymede proves that it is one of the most mysterious objects in the Solar System. In the past decade, scientists have made several significant discoveries about the largest moon in our system that put it high on the scientific list of exploration targets.

For example, the Hubble Space Telescope spotted signs of an underground ocean, buried under more than 150 kilometers of ice. According to scientific estimates, this ocean could also be 10 times deeper than our oceans on Earth.
Then, in 2018, the Galileo Probe spacecraft discovered extremely powerful and unusual electromagnetic waves around Ganymede. Known as Chorus waves, such have been detected around the Earth but the ones around Ganymede surprised scientists with their power.
Anyhow, discoveries like this of the FM radio signal coming from Ganymede prove the importance of the Juno mission and why it should remain in operation for as long as it can. For now, the mission has been extended until 2025 or earlier if there is a systems failure.
Many similar missions have continued for many years after the original estimates and it is possible that Juno will continue to operate even after 2025.
In each case, the final day of the mission, whenever it comes, will be a huge loss for astronomy and science and it will take years until a similar mission could reach Jupiter’s orbit.
If you get an organ transplant from a pig, is it covered by medical or veterinary insurance? That may sound absurd, but the potential for this kind of question is real and it’s here. Barely a week after a genetically modified (to prevent rejection) pig’s heart was successfully transplanted into a living human who is still living with his beating porcine organ, doctors successfully transplanted two genetically modified pig kidneys into the donated body of a brain-dead human and they functioned normally until the experiment was terminated 77 hours later – a record set in just the second attempt at a pig-to-human kidney transplant. Let the ethical, medical, insurance and animal rights debates begin!
Do I get a say?
“Our study demonstrates that major barriers to human xenotransplantation have been surmounted, identifies where new knowledge is needed to optimize xenotransplantation outcomes in humans, and lays the foundation for the establishment of a novel preclinical human model for further study.”
Yes, this is a big deal — according to Jayme Locke, M.D., director of the Comprehensive Transplant Institute in the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Department of Surgery and lead surgeon for the study published in the American Journal of Transplantation. The FDA defines xenotransplantation as “any procedure that involves the transplantation, implantation or infusion into a human recipient of either (a) live cells, tissues, or organs from a nonhuman animal source, or (b) human body fluids, cells, tissues or organs that have had ex vivo contact with live nonhuman animal cells, tissues or organs.” In this case, the “clinical-grade” genetically modified pig kidneys (called UKidney™) came from the biotechnology company United Therapeutics Corporation’s subsidiary Revivicor, Inc.
The human recipient was Jim Parsons, a registered organ donor whose organs were not suitable for donation when he died at age 57, so his family agreed to allow his brain-dead body be kept functioning on a ventilator during the study.
“Jim would have wanted to save as many people as he could with his death, and if he knew he could potentially save thousands and thousands of people by doing this, he would have had no hesitation.”
Jim Parson’s family discussed his participation in a press release, which also stated that the wait for a donated kidney can be as long as 10 years in some states, and almost 5,000 people per year die waiting on a kidney transplant. This experiment showed that the modified genes in the pig kidneys prevented blood clots and other known immune reactions, and demonstrated that the pig kidney could have lasted even longer while withstanding the higher blood pressure of a human body.
While both this and the recent pig heart transplant are medically revolutionary and potentially lifesaving, that doesn’t preclude the ethical concerns. It was revealed a few days ago that the pig heart recipient was convicted in 1988 of stabbing a man seven times – the victim was paralyzed for life and died in 2007, while the organ recipient spent six years in prison. The religious concerns of creating potential hybrids or chimeras vary, while animal rights activists have long fought the idea of setting up animal organ farms. And, while we continue to suffer from and search for the cause of the COVID pandemic, the fear of viruses jumping from animals to humans via organ transplants is real – despite the meticulous preventative measures taken in this experiment.
The debate is a long way from over.
Are we ready for pig organ transplants? If not, can we stop it? Whose decision is it — science, the public or the profit-making hospitals and insurance companies?
Thanks to data collected by NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope, scientists were able to study a mysterious world known as XO-3b. But their analysis has left them with even more questions, such as whether XO-3b is even a planetor something else.
XO-3b is a gas giant that orbits an F-type star. It has a mass that is 7.29 times that of Jupiter, but has a radius that is only 1.41 times larger than our Solar System’s Gas Giant. It orbits its host star at an exceptionally close range of 0.04529 AU (one AU is the distance that Earth is to the sun).
A year on XO-3b lasts just three Earth days and during that time, it goes through two different seasons – a one-day summer and a two-day winter. In a recent news conference that was held by the American Astronomical Society, Lisa Dang, who is a Ph.D. candidate in astrophysics at McGill University in Canada, stated, “We saw seasonal temperature variations hundreds of times stronger than what we experience on Earth.”
(Not XO-3b)
Furthermore, the seasons on XO-3b are due to its oval orbit around its host star and the amount of radiation it gets. Since the planet and the star are so close to each other, the furthest part of XO-3b’s orbit continues to be brought closer to the star because of their gravitational interactions which causes the unusual orbit.
With that being said, it is believed that the planet has only been orbiting the star for a relatively short amount of time as Dang noted, “The oval shape that we see here on this very short-period planet suggests that we’re catching it in the middle of migrating.”
Another odd fact about the planet is that based on the detection of infrared light, it is much hotter than initially thought, which can’t be explained by the rapid and extreme seasons. Dang explained this further, “This extra heating that we saw with Spitzer isn’t seasonal, it’s seen throughout the year,” adding, “Our investigation of this hot Jupiter finds that it’s heated not only by the nearby planet star, but it’s also heated from the interior of the planet.” Additionally, it is “puffier” than expected.
(Not XO-3b)
As for why the planet has so much extra heat, it could be caused by tidal heating caused by the star’s gravity pulling at the planet, causing it to become deformed and stretched. Another option is that it might not even be a planet after all. It could be a brown dwarf (also known as a “failed star”) or “…it might be not necessarily a failed star yet, but at the peak of its lifetime as a star.” Whatever it is, it’s definitely unusual. (An artist’s impression of XO-3b can be seen here.)
An artist's depiction of the planet XO-3b on an eccentric orbit around its star.Planet XO-3b has an internal source of heat, possibly from tidal heating, which is caused by the squeezing of the planet’s interior by the gravity of its parent star. This could be increased by the planet’s slightly elliptical orbit (shown on the right), meaning it’s more oval-shaped than circular.
Na alarm in ISS rond opgeblazen Russische satelliet vliegt ruimtepuin nu rakelings langs Chinese satelliet: “Extreem gevaarlijk incident”
Brokstukken van een Russische satelliet die Moskou een tijdje geleden doelbewust met een raket heeft kapotgeschoten, hebben deze week een Chinese satelliet bijna "gestreeld". Peking is boos en spreekt van een “extreem gevaarlijk incident”.
Op 15 november voerde het Russische ministerie van Defensie met succes een anti-satelliettest uit waarbij de inactieve Russische satelliet Tselina-D, die sinds 1982 in een baan om de aarde vloog, werd verpulverd. Dat gebeurde met een vanop de grond afgevuurde raket.
De vernietiging van de oude satelliet zorgde voor een wolk van puin, met een slordige 1.500 traceerbare brokstukken als gevolg. Volgens Rusland zouden die geen gevaar vormen voor ruimtestations en satellieten.
Daar dacht de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA toen al meteen anders over, want vlak nadat de Russen de satelliet hadden opgeblazen, ontstond er volgens NASA een reëel gevaar voor het Internationaal Ruimtestation ISS. Het ISS scheerde namelijk elke 90 minuten gedeeltelijk door of langs de schrootwolk van de kapotgeschoten satelliet in haar baan om de aarde.
De zeven astronauten die op dat moment aan boord van het ruimtestation waren, moesten hun toevlucht zoeken tot de ruimteschepen die aangemeerd waren aan het ISS (een Crew Dragon van SpaceX en een Russische Soyoez), om zich voor te bereiden op een eventuele noodevacuatie. In geval van bijvoorbeeld een catastrofale botsing kunnen die reddingsschepen dan snel naar huis. De crew schuilde zeker twee uur in de capsules. Uiteindelijk konden ze zonder problemen weer aan boord.
De brokstukken vormden volgens de Amerikanen niet alleen een bedreiging voor het ISS, maar ook voor de duizend andere satellieten in de baan om de aarde, waarop landen vertrouwen voor een breed scala aan activiteiten zoals communicatie en lokalisatie. “Ik ben verontwaardigd over deze onverantwoorde en destabiliserende actie”, verklaarde Bill Nelson, de topman van NASA, destijds in een zeer scherp communiqué.
Chinese satelliet bijna ‘gestreeld’
Maanden later hebben de Russen zich nu ook de woede van de Chinezen op de hals gehaald. Peking zegt dat enkele brokstukken van wijlen de Russische satelliet dinsdag op "slechts 14,5 meter" van de wetenschappelijke Chinese satelliet Tsinghua zijn gescheerd.
Liu Jing, een expert in ruimtepuin, noemde het tegenover de krant Global Times “zeldzaam” dat brokstukken en ruimtetuigen een tiental meter bij elkaar in de buurt komen.
China was vorige maand ook al boos, maar dan op de Amerikanen. Dit omdat een botsing tussen het Chinese ruimtestation en twee Starlink-satellieten van het Amerikaanse SpaceX alleen maar was vermeden door het station te laten uitwijken. Wetenschappers hebben er bij verschillende regeringen al eerder op aangedrongen om ruimtedata te delen, zodat het risico op in potentie catastrofale botsingen wordt verkleind.

Curiosity rover finds 'tantalizing' signs of ancient Mars life
Curiosity rover finds 'tantalizing' signs of ancient Mars life
Mike Wall
NASA's Curiosity rover has found some interesting organic compounds on the Red Planet that could be signs of ancient Mars life, but it will take a lot more work to test that hypothesis.
NASA's Curiosity Mars rover used two different cameras to create this selfie in front of a rock outcrop named Mont Mercou, which stands 20 feet (6 meters) tall.
Some of the powdered rock samples that Curiosity has collected over the years contain organics rich in a type of carbon that here on Earth is associated with life, researchers report in a new study.
But Mars is very different from our world, and many Martian processes remain mysterious. So it's too early to know what generated the intriguing chemicals, study team members stressed.
"We're finding things on Mars that are tantalizingly interesting, but we would really need more evidence to say we've identified life," Paul Mahaffy, who served as the principal investigator of Curiosity's Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) chemistry lab until retiring from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, in December 2021, said in a statement. "So we're looking at what else could have caused the carbon signature we're seeing, if not life."
Curiosity landed inside Mars' 96-mile-wide (154 kilometers) Gale Crater in August 2012 on a mission to determine if the area could ever have supported microbial life. The rover team soon determined that Gale's floor was a potentially habitable environment billions of years ago, harboring a lake-and-stream system that likely persisted for millions of years at a time.
In the new study, which will be published Tuesday (Jan. 18) in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the research team looked at two dozen powdered rock samples that Curiosity collected with its percussive drill from a variety of locations between August 2012 and July 2021. The rover fed this material into SAM, which can identify and characterize organics — carbon-containing molecules that are the building blocks of life on Earth.
The scientists found that nearly half of these samples were enriched in carbon-12, the lighter of the two stable carbon isotopes, compared to previous measurements of Mars meteorites and the Martian atmosphere. (Isotopes are versions of an element that contain different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. Carbon-12 has six neutrons, and the far less abundant carbon-13 has seven.)
These high-carbon-12 samples came from five different locations within Gale Crater, all of which featured ancient surfaces that had been preserved well over the eons.
On Earth, organisms preferentially use carbon-12 for their metabolic processes, so enrichment in this isotope in ancient rock samples here is generally interpreted as a signal of biotic chemistry. But carbon cycles on Mars aren't understood nearly well enough to make similar assumptions for Red Planet finds, study team members said.
The researchers came up with three possible explanations for the intriguing carbon signal. The first involves Mars microbes producing methane, which was then converted into more complex organic molecules after interacting with ultraviolet (UV) light in the Red Planet air. These larger organics then fell back to the ground and were incorporated into the rocks that Curiosity sampled.
But similar reactions involving UV light and non-biological carbon dioxide, by far the most abundant gas in Mars' atmosphere, could have generated the result as well. It's also possible that the solar system drifted through a giant molecular cloud rich in carbon-12 long ago, the researchers said.
"All three explanations fit the data," study leader Christopher House, a Curiosity scientist based at Penn State University, said in the same statement. "We simply need more data to rule them in or out."
The new find is especially intriguing because of the carbon-12 enrichment, but Curiosity has detected organic compounds on Mars before. For example, the mission team previously reported the detection of organics in powdered rock samples. The six-wheeled robot has also driven through plumes of methane, the simplest organic molecule, on multiple occasions.
It's unclear what's producing Mars' gaseous methane or how old it is. For example, the compound may be generated by microbes busily metabolizing beneath the frigid Martian surface today. It could alternatively be produced by underground interactions of rock and hot water, with no life involved. It could also be ancient material, produced either by organisms or abiotically, that was trapped underground long ago and occasionally "burps" up onto the surface today.
The Curiosity team would love to drive through another methane plume and determine its carbon-12 content, exploring the origins of these organics further. But that would take a lot of luck, given that researchers cannot predict when and where such plumes will appear.
Further helpful data could also come from another Mars rover — Perseverance, a NASA robot that landed inside a different Red Planet crater in February 2021. Perseverance is hunting for signs of ancient Mars life and collecting dozens of samples that will be returned to Earth for analysis, possibly as early as 2031.

Rover Curiosity vindt "prikkelende" tekenen van mogelijk leven op Mars vroeger
Marsrover Curiosity heeft interessante organische verbindingen ontdekt in stenen op de rode planeet. Wetenschappers hebben er drie verklaringen voor. Een daarvan spreekt het meest tot de verbeelding en leidt tot de hypothese dat het tekenen zijn van vroeger leven op Mars. Maar dat is nog erg voorbarig.
In stalen van gesteenten die Curiosity door de jaren heen - de rover landde in de Galekrater op Mars in augustus 2012 - met een klopboor op vijf verschillende locaties in de krater heeft verzameld, blijken organische stoffen te zitten die rijk zijn aan een soort koolstof (koolstof-12 genaamd) die hier op aarde in verband wordt gebracht met leven. Maar het is nog te vroeg om te bepalen wat deze intrigerende chemicaliën heeft gegenereerd op Mars, benadrukt het onderzoeksteam. De rode planeet is erg verschillend van onze aarde en heel wat processen op Mars blijven een mysterie.
Haarscherpe 360°-panoramafoto toont landschap van Mars
“We vinden dingen op Mars die prikkelend interessant zijn, maar we hebben echt wel meer bewijs nodig om te kunnen zeggen dat we leven hebben geïdentificeerd”, aldus Paul Mahaffy, die in december op pensioen ging als hoofdonderzoeker bij NASA. “Dus we bekijken wat er nog allemaal de oorzaak kan zijn van deze koolstof, als het toch niet leven zou zijn.”
Wetenschappers stelden eerder al vast dat de bodem van de Galekrater, waar Curiosity in 2012 neerstreek, miljarden jaren geleden een potentieel bewoonbare omgeving was, waar zich een systeem met een meer en een stroom bevond dat waarschijnlijk miljoenen jaren is blijven bestaan.
De onderzoekers zien in hun artikel, dat gepubliceerd is in PNAS, drie mogelijke verklaringen voor de intrigerende koolstof-12. De eerste is dat microben op Mars methaan produceerden dat vervolgens werd omgezet in complexere organische moleculen na interactie met ultraviolet licht in de lucht van de rode planeet. Deze grotere organische moleculen vielen daarna terug op de grond en werden opgenomen in de rotsen die Curiosity opboorde.
De tweede verklaring wijst niet op vroeger leven op Mars, maar stelt vast dat soortgelijke reacties met UV-licht en niet-biologisch kooldioxide, verreweg het meest voorkomende gas in de atmosfeer van Mars, ook tot dit resultaat zouden kunnen hebben geleid. Ten slotte is het, volgens de onderzoekers, ook mogelijk dat het zonnestelsel lang geleden door een reusachtige moleculaire wolk is gedreven die rijk was aan koolstof-12.
“Alle drie de verklaringen passen bij de gegevens”, verklaart studieleider Christopher House, Curiosity-wetenschapper van de Penn State University. “We hebben gewoon meer gegevens nodig om ze op te nemen dan wel uit te sluiten.”

Glowing Objects Over Richland, Oregon, Google Map! UFO Sighting News.
Glowing Objects Over Richland, Oregon, Google Map! UFO Sighting News.
Date of discovery: January 20, 2022
Location of discovery: Richland, Oregon Google map coordinates: 44.737573°N 117.109588°W
Now this was reported just today by a woman living in Richland. She found three glowing objects moving over the mountain area on Google Earth map. So I had to make a video of it. She had only a screenshot. At first when I look at it, they almost look like birds, but the shape is where the similarity totally ends. You see they are glowing white with a rainbow aura coming out the back end...which is some kind of propulsion. I have seen birds in google earth, but never like this. This is not birds. They may be fighter jets flying in unison, but again, I've never seen this shape of fighter jet before. These really appear to be UFOs. I checked the photos before and after this time in the same area (watch video) and there is nothing, no buildings, no debris, no cars, planes nothing that would indicate it was just a reflection off the ground. These things were flying, they were big and they were moving fast and had something coming out the back. That is 100% alien technology. I bet there is an alien base nearby about 5-6km below the surface of this very hill they are on.

Wow, this just in 5 min ago! A guy was working at a park in Bullhead City when he noticed a strange light in the sky. The light came close and closer until we can almost see a metal disk with a glow at its center. He said in the video the UFO was over the Yucca Valley region...where he has heard about many reports of UFOs over the years. Fantastic sighting and amazing video. I just wish he drove over there to get a closer look, but as he stated, he was on the job at the time and you can't just take off anytime you feel like it when you are supporting a family. Wow, just wow!
Scott C. Waring - Taiwan
Eyewitness states:
I am an employee of Mohave County at Davis Camp county Park which is located in Bullhead city ,Az. Thed park is a camping facility and as I was making my rounds early morning,I observed a brilliant stationary light in the Clouds. Looking west towards the Needles or Yucca Az area I estimate the miles at 40- 50 miles away as the crow flies, I witnessed this brilliant light or large orb descending with brilliant light and appeared to be strobing and spinning. I grabbed my phone and proceeded to video tape the event.
Hey everyone. I managed to download all the photos of the Mars elevation set that the USGS/NASA tried to hide by taking down the whole website after the story got into world news 6X in 24 hours about the 25km building found in one of the photos. Each pdf photo is between 1.8 and 4MB in size.
To get the photos I found the cache (past memory) of the site and downloaded it from there. I believe I have all or at least most of the photos and I put them into a file. The only way you will find anything in the photos is if you follow my instructions in the video below or it may take you days or longer to do on your own.
1. open pdf on computer, then export as JPG format...make sure its set on maximum quality.
2. Change jpg to black and white.
3. Increase size of photo by 2X under size settings.
4. start editing in photo program. I use PhotoscapeX but any program you know well will work. I use deepening, focus, light, contrast and zoom.
Good luck, and remember to make a video of your discovery and post it on Youtube to share with the world, so we can learn together.

This eyewitness caught a glowing red orb over the UK last night. The orb moved around silently and had no other color of lights. No engines or sound was heard from the craft as it moved above him. The object was perfectly round and is huge. Strange how it hovers in place so long and then moves off. Darlington is a very old city with many buildings going back hundreds of years. It's an excellent location for aliens to study about how humans preserve older structures and appreciate the beauty and designs of long ago.

Another of what are considered the “classic” mass UFO sightings in the United States that have made their way into the lore and legends of UAP studies is the event that has come to be known as the St. Clair Triangle sighting of 2000 in southwestern Illinois. It’s also referred to as “the UFO Over Illinois,” the name of a television documentary released later the same year. Other shows and books have featured it prominently. Today The Debrief will look at the lore surrounding this event and compare it to the significant amount of original source data available.
We’ll begin with a brief summary of the details frequently seen in the ufology literature. The tale begins early in the morning on a frigid January 4th, 2000, in Highland, Illinois. 66-year-old miniature golf course owner Melvern Noll was stopping by his business to ensure the pipes hadn’t frozen. Upon exiting his building he saw a brightly lit object in the skies that he would go on to describe as looking like “a flying house with windows on the top and bottom.”
The stunned Noll quickly called the police to report what he had seen. The dispatcher he spoke to forwarded the information to Police Officer Ed Barton in Lebanon, Illinois. Barton initially responded skeptically, asking if the caller had been drunk, but went to investigate as instructed. Observing a bright light in the sky as he drove his cruiser, he closed in on the object before pulling over and exiting his vehicle. He would go on to report seeing a “huge” object in the sky that was triangular, longer than it was wide, with three white lights and one red light. It accelerated away at high speed to the southwest toward Shiloh, Illinois.
Shiloh Police Officer David Martin was on the lookout for the object and reported seeing something very similar before he too claimed that the slow-moving object sped off in the same direction at amazing speed. A third officer in Millstadt, Illinois, Craig Stevens, picked it up and reported it next. He even managed to snap a picture of it with a Polaroid camera. A fourth officer in Dupo, Illinois would later report seeing ‘something’ that might be related. Other civilian witnesses would chime in with their own accounts at later dates, but the object eventually disappeared after more than an hour of confirmed sightings.
Interestingly, musician Sufjan Stevens would go on to write a song about the event:
EXAMINING THE SOURCE DATA FOR MORE DETAILS
One of the larger challenges involved in examining any of these legendary sightings is how much “legend” winds up being inserted into popular reports over the years. Television documentaries and books supporting the extraterrestrial hypothesis (ETH) can tend to focus on the more exotic aspects of a report while downplaying or even ignoring inconvenient anomalies in the data. Similarly, skeptics and debunkers will tend to latch onto inconsistencies while failing to acknowledge some of the more credible evidence. Today The Debrief will look at both with a (hopefully) more critical eye.
Rather than being forced to rely on the potentially fading memories of witnesses or the video simulations provided by video producers, the St. Clair triangle UFO event offers substantial original evidence from the time of the sighting. This trove includes not only transcripts of conversations between dispatchers and police officers, but original recordings of radio traffic and interviews with witnesses conducted shortly after the sighting. These are included in an excellent 2014 documentary from an investigative reporter who collected and released all of the source material.
One of the first areas of evidence to examine is the collection of descriptions of the UFO as originally reported by the witnesses. Some do seem to be consistent while others demonstrate disparities that have been seized upon by skeptics.
Melvern Noll, the miniature golf course owner, described “a flying house with windows in the top and bottom.” This is starkly different than the descriptions offered by law enforcement officials. But it has been suggested that Noll only saw the object for moments with no forewarning at four in the morning in the freezing cold before rushing to contact the police.
THE TESTIMONY OF THE POLICE OFFICERS
Officer Ed Barton in Lebanon, Illinois, at 4:21 am, described a triangular object, “longer than it was wide.” Barton estimated the altitude of the object as being between 1,000 and 1,500 feet. He described seeing three white lights and one red light. The object suddenly sped away, going eight miles in three seconds in the direction of Shiloh, Illinois. It is worth noting that in the original radio traffic recording, Barton describes how he was reaching into the squad car to grab his microphone. When he emerged, the object was far away. He did not actually see it accelerate at exotic speeds.
Shiloh Officer David Martin offered a roughly similar description at 4:23 am. He described it as being an “arrow shape, triangular-shaped object… floating in this sky over this field… with three big bright lights, lighting up the entire sky just beneath the flying object.” He put the altitude at 1,000 to 1,500 feet before the object moved to the far end of the fields “in the snap of a finger, the wink of an eye.” He heard no sound from the object despite having the windows of his cruiser down.
At 4:39 am Millstadt Police Officer Craig Stevens reports that he has an object in sight. “It’s huge.” He describes it as an “arrowhead-shaped object.” Stevens describes the craft as having “three lights to the rear, one in the center and two to either side.” Stevens adds an additional detail, saying that it is “concaved in the rear” rather than a pure triangle. But he also says “in the concave section” there is a strobing white light going side to side. His drawing makes it clear it’s the rear of the craft, not the bottom. He further describes a “red blinking light” that is on the bottom. He estimates that the object is between 500 and 2,000 feet in altitude. The object then “banked” and headed toward Dupo, Illinois.
At that point, Stevens grabbed a Polaroid camera out of his car and took a picture as it flew away. That should have been the most compelling piece of evidence, but sadly it’s not a very good photograph, showing only some blurry lights against a dark background.

Perhaps significantly, Officer Stevens says that he could hear a “low frequency buzzing noise” that seemed to be related to the craft.
At 5:03 am the final purported sighting by a law enforcement official is recorded. Officer Matt Jany is located in Dupo, Illinois, and has been on the lookout for the craft after following the radio traffic generated by the previous sightings. He claims to have spotted the object, but reports that it is “pretty far off” and he was looking at it through binoculars. He thought the lights looked “pretty bright” but it was “hard to tell.”
Officer Stevens is still on the radio and reiterates that the object was “about 500 feet above me and it was huge.” Jany responds, saying that “it’s usually where planes are. It’s not low at all.”
This discrepancy in the perceived altitude ties in with Jany’s description of the lights, at one point mentioning a blinking green light. The other reports only mentioned white and red lights. Green blinking lights (along with red ones) are typical of commercial airliners and are required by the FAA. These factors have led many analysts to conclude that Officer Jany did not see the same craft the other officer described and instead was simply seeing a conventional aircraft flying over the area. This would not be unusual since Dupo is located between the international airports in St. Louis and Chicago and also not far from an Air Force base.
At that point, Jany reports that dispatch told him that Lambert Airport is on the phone saying there is nothing in the area on their radar. This was a reference to Lambert International Airport in St. Louis.
THE AIR FORCE CONNECTION AND RADAR DATA
Some analysts seeking explanations for this event have put forth suggestions that nearby Scott Air Force Base might be involved, launching either misidentified conventional craft or experimental classified aerial vehicles. This is where the source data becomes highly intriguing and may suggest a governmental or military coverup. Two conflicting descriptions of Scott Air Force Base have emerged in previous analyses. One theory describes the base as having a 24-hour, fully staffed control tower, but claims that it was not online due to “an unexplained suspension of operations.” The other says that it’s primarily a hospital base with a small airfield and had no operations at 4 am. The original sources suggest that both of these descriptions miss the mark.
In the documentary linked above, the St. Clair Police radio dispatcher claims to have called Scott Air Force Base and was told they could see nothing on the radar. But later, Scott AFB personnel told a reporter from the Lebanon Advertiser that “Scott Air Force Base has denied any knowledge of the sighting, reporting that it “no longer has radar on the field and that control tower personnel were not on duty at that hour.”
The information supplied to both the police and journalists by Scott Air Force Base is not only contradictory but highly suspicious, to say the least. Also, the claims about the base in previous documentaries are frequently inaccurate, leading to many justifiable questions. First of all, the idea that the base is a small medical facility with limited airfield capability is flatly wrong.
Scott Air Force base has been in continuous operation since shortly after World War 2. It’s true that they have an impressive medical facility there (the 375th Medical Group), including a fleet of Learjet C-21 twin turbofan-engine aircraft used for medical transport and evacuations which can take place at any hour of the day. They also host a fleet of KC-135 Stratotankers used for in-flight refueling of other aviation assets at any time. These massive planes require a sizable airfield. On top of that, Scott Air Force Base boasts a group of C-40 B/C transports that ferry dignitaries around the globe and are the size of Air Force 1.
The idea that a base such as Scott would have “removed their radar” or not had anyone manning the control tower is implausible in the extreme. So the answers provided to both police dispatchers and local media outlets seem dubious. The responses were also contradictory in two regards. If you had no radar, why would you bother staffing an air control tower? And why would they say they had “nothing on the radar” if there was no radar? The Debrief reached out to the Public Affairs Office of Scott Airfield for comment but received no answer prior to publication.
THE SKEPTICS HAVE THEIR SAY
Debunkers have made spirited attempts to shoot down this story, raising some interesting possibilities. The most common of these is that all of the witnesses actually misidentified a blimp. It’s true that the location of the sightings was not far from the base of the American Blimp Company, later bought out by the Van Wagner Airship Group. Blimps are large and very quiet, often equipped with a variety of different types and colors of lights for advertising purposes. Also, the top speed of these blimps is roughly 45 mph depending on the wind, so a blimp could have made it from Lebanon to Dupo in the one-hour and three-minute period when the live reports were recorded.
The main problem with this avenue of debunking is that it’s entirely speculative. As already noted, a blimp could have made that journey and displayed lights that would be considered unusual. Some have spoken with people in the airship industry who agree that it’s plausible. But investigators checked with the American Blimp Company and later Van Wagner and none was able to produce a record of a flight by one of those ships on that date, though one would imagine that all trips by such an expensive aircraft would be recorded.
Further, a blimp could have made the trip in the time allowed if it flew directly to Dupo. But the various witnesses described the craft as slowing, stopping, and changing directions. Also, unless we are to dismiss the testimony of the officers in Lebanon and Shiloh, the craft they observed not only hovered but shot away at a stunning velocity. Blimps are simply not capable of that type of behavior.
CONCLUSIONS
As we have discovered, there are complicated aspects to the St. Clair Triangle sighting, and the legends that have grown around it in books and television programs do not always match the record. For one thing, such shows frequently depicted the “classic” triangle, with one bright white light on each corner of the craft fixed to the bottom and a red light in the center. None of the witnesses described the lights in that fashion. And the original witness, Melvern Noll, described something that sounded entirely different, so some level of skepticism may be warranted.
With that said, the descriptions provided by all but one of the law enforcement witnesses (who likely saw a conventional aircraft) are similar enough in terms of its physical appearance and curious flight characteristics that they are difficult to ignore. Their stories remained unchanged over the years.
The baffling responses from Scott Air Force base do little to discredit the witnesses. While it seems unlikely that such a base would be home to highly classified, exotic aircraft programs, they should have been able to provide corroborating radar data or at least a confirmation that they recorded no targets in the subject area. It is not inconceivable that they had standing orders to never comment on anything UFO-related. This is a pattern the Air Force has adhered to ever since the days of Project Blue Book.
The poor quality of the photograph taken by Officer Stevens is disappointing to researchers, but the fact that it was taken at night on a dated Polaroid Instamatic pointing up at the night sky makes it understandable. Additional electronic data would make the case much stronger, but the inexplicable responses from Scott Air Force Base at least suggest that such may have existed at one point.
In conclusion, the viability of this case rests heavily on the credibility of multiple professional witnesses from different locations who would seem unlikely in the extreme to have cooked up a tale of this sort as a hoax. The lack of electronic signature data is disappointing but perhaps understandable as we already discussed. And the alternative options offered by skeptics do little to explain away the recorded, original observations as misidentified mundane phenomena. As with most of these famous, multiple-witness sightings, the final determination remains in the eye of the beholder. But the available source evidence is compelling and none of the alternate explanations are very satisfying.

Will aliens invade our planet this year? A surprising 14% of people say yes. A new survey conducted by Ipsos asked more than 22,000 adults in 33 different countries what their predictions are for 2022 and the results are quite interesting to say the least.
The majority of people have high hopes for this year as 77% of those surveyed said that they are optimistic 2022 will be better for them than 2021 was, while 61% of people believe the global economy will be stronger than last year. As for 2021, 77% of people said that it was a bad year for their country, and 58% admitted that it wasn’t a good year for them or their family.
In regards to the COVID-19 pandemic, a little more than half of those polled (56%) believe that at least 80% of the world’s population will get at least one vaccine this year.
When asked if there will be more extreme weather in their country this year compared to 2021, 60% said yes. A surprising 45% of those polled believe that less people will choose to fly compared to 2019.
As for society getting back to a somewhat state of normalcy, 71% of people say that their city centers will become busy again as more people will get back to working in their offices on a more permanent basis. On the other hand, a rather small percentage of those surveyed (28%) believe that people in their country will become more tolerant of each other – this percentage included a whopping 83% of people living in China, but only 9% of those in France.
A little more than 40% of people surveyed have confidence that the stock market will be stable this year; although there is a lot of worry regarding rising prices with 75% of people thinking that the prices will increase faster than their income.
As for aliens invading our planet, 14% of pollsters believe that will happen – interestingly, that percentage includes nearly a third of those living in India. While that may be a surprising percentage, it is quite low compared to other scary events – 39% think that a natural disaster will affect a major city in their country; 38% say that foreign government hackers will cause a global IT shutdown; 34% believe nuclear weapons will be used in a conflict somewhere in the world; 27% say that a rogue artificial intelligence program won’t be able to be shut down; and 16% think an asteroid will hit our planet.
All in all, people are remaining optimistic that 2022 will be a better year than 2021, with a stronger global economy and more people getting vaccinated. But there are some concerns as well, such as rising prices and more extreme weather events. Not to mention aliens invading our planet.
The great distances covered by visiting "aliens" may be ones of time rather than space, a recent book argues.
Close encounters with our future selves?
(Image credit: thortful.com)
Unidentified flying objects (UFOs) have captured the public's attention over the decades. As exoplanet detection is on the rise, why not consider that star-hopping visitors from afar might be buzzing through our friendly skies by taking an interstellar off-ramp to Earth?
On the other hand, could those piloting UFOs be us — our future progeny that have mastered the landscape of time and space? Perhaps those reports of people coming into contact with strange beings represent our distant human descendants, returning from the future to study us in their own evolutionary past.
The book was written by Michael Masters, a professor of biological anthropology at Montana Technological University in Butte. Masters thinks that – given the accelerating pace of change in science, technology, and engineering – it is likely that humans of the distant future could develop the knowledge and machinery necessary to return to the past.
The objective of the book, Masters said, is to spur a new and more informed discussion among believers and skeptics alike.
"I took a multidisciplinary approach in order to try and understand the oddities of this phenomenon," Masters told Space.com. "Our job as scientists is to be asking big questions and try to find answers to unknown questions. There's something going on here, and we should be having a conversation about this. We should be at the forefront of trying to find out what it is."
Human evolution
Dubbing these purported visitors "extratempestrials," Masters notes that close-encounter accounts typically describe UFO tenants as bipedal, hairless, human-like beings with large brains, large eyes, small noses and small mouths. Further, the creatures are often said to have the ability to communicate with us in our own languages and possess technology advanced beyond, but clearly built upon, today's technological prowess.
Masters believes that through a comprehensive analysis of consistent patterns of long-term biocultural change throughout human evolution — as well as recent advances in our understanding of time and time travel — we may begin to consider this future possibility in the context of a currently unexplained phenomenon.
"The book ties together those known aspects of our evolutionary history with what is still an unproven, unverified aspect of UFOs and aliens," he sai
But why not argue that ET is actually a traveler from across the vastness of space, from a distant planet? Wouldn't that be a simpler answer?
"I would argue it's the opposite," Masters responded. "We know we're here. We know humans exist. We know that we've had a long evolutionary history on this planet. And we know our technology is going to be more advanced in the future. I think the simplest explanation, innately, is that it is us. I'm just trying to offer what is likely the most parsimonious explanation."

Archaeological tourism
As an anthropologist who has worked on and directed numerous archaeological digs in Africa, France and throughout the United States, Masters observes that it is easy to conceptualize just how much more could be learned about our own evolutionary history if we currently possessed the technology to visit past periods of time.
"The alleged abduction accounts are mostly scientific in nature. It's probably future anthropologists, historians, linguists that are coming back to get information in a way that we currently can't without access to that technology," Masters said.
"That said, I do think that some component of it is also tourism," he added. "Undoubtedly in the future, there are those that will pay a lot of money to have the opportunity to go back and observe their favorite period in history. Some of the most popular tourist sites are the pyramids of Giza and Machu Picchu in Peru … old and prehistoric sites."
Masters calls his UFO research "an evolving project."
"There's certainly still missing pieces of the puzzle," he said. "There are aspects of time that we don't yet understand. Wanted is a theory of quantum gravity, and we can meld general relativity and quantum mechanics. I'm just trying to put forth the best model I can based on current scientific knowledge. Hopefully, over time, we can continue to build on this."
Solve this mystery
"Masters postulates that using a multidisciplinary scientific approach to the UFO phenomenon will be what it takes to solve this mystery once and for all, and I couldn't agree more," said Jan Harzan, executive director of the nonprofit Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
"The premise that UFOs are us from the future is one of many possibilities that MUFON is exploring to explain the UFO phenomenon. All we know for sure is that we are not alone," Harzan added. "Now the question becomes, 'Who are they?' And Masters makes a great case for the time-traveler hypothesis."
Tic-Tac-shaped objects were recently reported zipping through the sky by jet-fighter pilots and radar operators. The Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) was created to research and investigate Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), including numerous videos of reported encounters, three of which were released to the public in 2017.

'Highly dubious claim'
But not everybody is on board with the idea, as you might imagine.
"There is nothing in this book to take seriously, as it depends on the belief that 'time travel' is not only possible, but real," said Robert Sheaffer, a noted UFO skeptic.
Supposedly our distant descendants have mastered time travel, Sheaffer said, and have traveled back in time to visit us. "So, according to Masters, you just spin something fast enough and it will begin to warp space, and even send stuff backwards in time. This is a highly dubious claim," he said.
Moreover, Sheaffer said that Masters tries to deduce aliens' evolutionary history from witness descriptions, "suggesting that he takes such accounts far too literally."
David Darling is a British astronomer and science writer who has authored books on a sweeping array of topics – from gravity, Zen physics and astrobiology to teleportation and extraterrestrial life.
"I've often thought that if some UFOs are 'alien' craft, it's just as reasonable to suppose that they might be time machines from our own future than that they're spacecraft from other stars," Darling told Space.com. "The problem is the 'if.'
Darling said that, while some aerial phenomena have eluded easy identification, one of the least likely explanations, it seems to him, is that they're artificial and not of this world.
"Outside of the popular mythos of flying saucers and archetypal, big-brained aliens, there's precious little credible evidence that they exist," Darling said. "So, my issue with the book is not the ingenuity of its thesis, but the fact that there's really no need for such a thesis in the first place."

Exotic physics?
Larry Lemke, a retired NASA aerospace engineer with an interest in the UFO phenomenon, finds the prospect of time-travelling visitors from the future intriguing
"The one thing that has become clear over the decades of sightings, if you believe the reports, is that these objects don't seem to be obeying the usual laws of aerodynamics and Newtonian mechanics," Lemke said, referring to the relationship, in the natural world, between force, mass and motion.
Toss in for good measure Einstein's theory of general relativity and its consequences, like wormholes and black holes, along with other exotic physics ideas such as the Alcubierre warp-drive bubble.
"There's a group of thinkers in the field of UFOs that point out that phenomena reported around some UFOs do, in fact, look exactly like general relativity effects," Lemke said. Missing time is a very common one."
Lemke said that the idea that somebody has figured out how to manipulate space-time, on a local scale with a low-energy approach, would explain a lot of things across the UFO phenomenon, including those baffling Tic-Tac-shaped objects recently reported by jet-fighter pilots and radar operators.
"No matter how much knowledge we have, how much we think we know, there's always some frontier beyond," he said. "And to understand that frontier is getting more and more esoteric."

Admiral Fahrney on UFOs
Navy Admiral Delmar S. Fahrney, former head of the Navy’s guided-missile program, statement was printed in New York Times, January 17, 1957
Rear Adm. Delmer S. Fahrney said he has talked with a number of scientists and engineers who reported seeing strange flying objects. He added, “There are signs that intelligence directs such objects because of the way they fly. They are not entirely actuated by automatic equipment.” He said, “By the way they change position in formations and override each other would indicate that their motion involves a tremendous amount of technology of which we have no knowledge, and that their development must have taken an extended period of time.”
Fahrney also stated, “Reliable reports indicate there are objects coming into our atmosphere at very high speeds and controlled by thinking intelligence’s.”
“There are objects coming into our atmosphere at very high speeds… No agency in this country or Russia is able to duplicate at this time the speeds and accelerations which radars and observers indicate these flying objects are able to achieve….
On January 16, 1957 – the day after NICAP’s Board of Governors met for the first time – Board Chairman Delmer S. Fahrney called a press conference. News media all over the country quoted his statements identifying him as one of the few “top brass” to speak out in defense of UFOs.
Note: A friend of mine Commander Bethune a pilot for Navy VIPs often flew Admiral Fahrney to Wright Patterson Air Force Base where he claimed some alien craft were kept and examined. The Navy became primary researchers to develop our own space fleet for the government while the Air Force took most the heat from the news media.
UFO Crash in Missouri in 1941
By Paul Blake Smith, the 1941 UFO crash might well be the most exciting, shocking, and impact event that is now the subject of a new book.
Did three extraterrestrials really crash-land their circular spaceship on a farm just outside of Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Police authorities called Pastor William G. Huffman to travel immediately to a crash site on April 12, 1941, He was to administer the last rites to the three-member alien aircrew. Paster Huffman was escorted to the site and saw a crashed metal spaceship. Three identical Grey aliens flew the craft.
This stunning recovery was then allegedly taken to a secret hiding place beneath the most recognizable building in the world. Was an aspect of the scientifically examined alien craft’s propulsion system applied to the U.S. nuclear weapons program to help win World War II?
The serious, amazing pre-Roswell claims and quotes, rumors and insights, opinions and documented facts are all examined here, in proper chronological, easy-to-read order, the only book to explore ever comprehensively the wildest nonfiction story of all time.
This book indicates the US had a crashed saucer from space to evaluate and to back engineer its technology as early as 1941; Huffman said he was given a photo of two men holding up one of the aliens, but the image was taken by a so-called photo expert and never returned to the Huffman family. he believes the aliens and their damaged craft were initially brought to the Sikeston Missouri Institute for Aeronautics, before being stored in an underground facility beneath the Capitol building in Washington DC. According to two sisters from Ohio, their father, Rev. Turner Holt, was taken on a tour of the secret rooms in the 1940s by Secretary of State Cordell Hull and shown three large jars, each containing a non-human with big eyes. Read the full recap here.
This is a declassified oval office Top Secret memo indicating the alien crash was real and the recovered crash helped in the development of the atomic bomb in the Manhattan Project. Also, they now have the opportunity to extend our technology.
First US Jet Disc Vought Flying Flapjack XF5U-1
During World War II and immediately after the Navy developed a disc shaped craft. It’s possible the crashed Cape Girardeau craft helped in the development of the first US Jet Disc.
The first flight of the V-173 with conventional propellor engines was on 23 November 1942 with Vought Chief Test Pilot Boone Guyton at the controls. The aircraft’s most significant problem concerned its complicated gearbox that routed power from the engines to its two long propeller shafts. The gearbox produced unacceptable amounts of vibration in ground testing, delaying the aircraft’s first test flight for months. Flight testing of the V-173 went on through 1942 and 1943 with 190 flights, resulting in reports of UFOs from surprised Connecticut locals. Charles Lindbergh piloted the V-173 during this time and found it surprisingly easy to manage and exhibiting impressive low-speed capabilities. On one occasion, the V-173 was forced to make an emergency landing on a beach. As the pilot made his final approach, he noticed two bathers directly in his path. The pilot locked the aircraft’s brakes on landing, causing the aircraft to flip over onto its back. Remarkably, the airframe proved so strong that neither the plane nor the pilot sustained any severe damage.
The basic wing area (427 sq ft.) and plan form (less elevators and propeller nacelles) of the V-173 and XF5U-1 were identical tested. A developed version of the original V-173 prototype, the XF5U-1 was a larger aircraft. Of all-metal construction, it was almost five times heavier. A modernized version with jet engines is shown in the photo.
The Navy’s Bureau of Aeronautics established the Navy Liaison Office at Edwards AFB on August 28, 1946, to oversee development of the Vought XF5U-1 Skimmer.
Lt. Colonel Talks about Investigating and Debunking UFO Sightings
Lieutenant Colonel Dick French’s
Recently at the International UFO Congress, an ex-fighter pilot approached Open Minds Antonio Huneeus and asked to share his story.
Retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Dick French’s 27 years of military experience has taken him around the world. He has flown fighter jets in Vietnam and Korea, operated in military intelligence, and been exposed to some of our nation’s biggest secrets. His career started in the AFOSI (Air Force Office of Special Investigations) where he would conduct stakeouts to remove personnel who were breaking the military’s code of conduct. He then moved on to pilot training school and became a pilot.
Later he was transferred to the 6004’s Air Intelligence Security Squadron where it was his duty to investigate any reported UFO sighting. He would collect any photographic evidence, question witnesses on the size and shape of the object, its estimated capability, and any other occurrences that surround the sighting. In the end though,
Lt. Col. French talked to me on several occasions and spoke very openly that UFOs exist, and some are extraterrestrial. He indicated we did have pieces of alien craft but not much could be discerned from them. French met Army Lt. Colonel Philip Corso who claimed key UFO parts were sent to aviation companies without explaining their source. He also claimed various advanced technology was back engineered.
Lt. Col. Richard French was a lead investigator on Project Blue Book in the 1950s, his job was to shoot down false reports of UFOs. Superiors told him to debunk the sightings however he could. They personally did not believe in alien UFOs. This position allowed him to travel to many interesting UFO hot spots while meeting high-ranking officials. Given his job, French never dreamed he would end up in Newfoundland one day watching what appeared to him to be two extraterrestrials performing repairs on a submerged, unknown circular craft.
Col. Richard French, Capt. Jim Courant, Major George Filer, FAA John Callahan at the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure with six Congressmen (ret.)
Washington, D.C., recently, the 83-year-old retired officer testified at the Citizen Hearing On Disclosure in May3, of 2013 at the National Press Club in Washington D.N.A. panel of six former members of Congress about his work as a UFO debunker in 1952.
French recounted how the Newfoundland incident unfolded in the early 1950s, after two UFOs were seen off the coast of St. John’s. French’s superiors ordered him to look into the situation.
“They told me there were two UFOs involved and that they were deep under the water, after entering the water doing roughly 100 miles an hour. “There were a 100 people assembled on the wharf looking in amazement at the water, including several local policemen.” French recalls the water was very clear and he could see two circular craft, each one about 18 feet in diameter and approximately 3 feet thick. He said the two objects were floating below the surface of the water, a couple of feet apart, not more than 20 feet from the shore. And he saw two beings in the water near the ships.“The first thing I saw was the UFOs, and it was apparent to me that they were doing something to the craft, and I couldn’t really tell what because they were on the bottom side of it and not visible to me except when they would occasionally get over to the side where I could see them. The water was fairly clear, and I could see without any trouble. They weren’t down at the bottom of the [seabed] — they were about halfway down.”
The beings he saw “were about 2 or 3 feet tall, light grey in color, very thin, long arms with either two or three fingers. The top of their heads was much wider than their jaw line, their eyes were very slanted, and you couldn’t see pupils in them. They looked the way [aliens] have been depicted in motion pictures.”
As French watched, one of the ships began to rise out of the water.
“When it hit the [surface], it was going about 100 miles an hour. It then accelerated to somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,500 to 3,000 miles an hour and disappeared. It returned about 20 minutes later, slowed down to a stop before it entered the water, then went down, and the two [beings] worked together.
“It took them about 20 minutes and then the two ships departed together, again slow when they exited the water, and immediately they sped up to an extremely high speed. I believe they were repairing [the ship] and tested that the repairs had been adequate, and then away they went.” Thanks to Lee Spiegel and Antonio Huneeus

Mars Cave Opening
Mars Cave
The Cottonwood science class was participating in the Mars Education Program housed at Arizona State University, which offers students the opportunity to access imaging data from the Mars Odyssey orbiter. The group of 16 students from Cottonwood were pursuing their interest in lava tubes and the images that the students selected for their project appeared to bear evidence of several lava tubes, but something else became evident: a small, circular dark area, which was eventually determined to be a surface opening to a lava tube cave system, perhaps caused by gravity-induced collapse. A similar feature was also found on the Moon. Thanks to PhysOrg, Photo by NASA.
Mars had oceans, just like Earth
Mars Oceans in Blue
In new research published in the journal Nature Geoscience, scientists from the University of Colorado identified 52 delta regions on Mars fed by numerous river-like systems. All lay at about the same height, suggesting that they marked the shoreline edge of a huge river-fed ocean, which they believe covered a third of the planet.
The Daily Telegraph reports, A vast Earth-like Ocean covered a third of the surface of Mars 3.5 billion years ago, new research suggests. Scientists believe it stretched around the planet’s northern hemisphere and held 10 times more water than all the Earth’s oceans combined. The water may have provided a cradle for the emergence of extraterrestrial life, researchers claim, that may have flown to Earth
“Our findings lend credence to the hypothesis that an ocean formed on early Mars as part of a global and active hydrosphere,” said the researchers, led by Dr Gaetano Di Achille and Professor Brian Hynek.
Super Interesting Plane and Drone Designs
By Bob Spearing MUFON News
RQ-180, or the Great White Bat, or also the Shikaka
The RQ-180 is a major step toward combining endurance and survivability in a high-end unmanned aerial vehicle
It’s a spy drone that has already been seen over California and the Philippines.
Tim Aines is the Chief Field Investigator in Illinois under the State Director, Sam Maranto. Illinois has a talented team of people including great photo analysts like Greg Cisko. Tim Aines is also a retired military intelligence officer and MUFON certainly needs to bring individuals like Tim to the forefront due to their incredible knowledge base!
Tim has provided me with several spectacular illustrations of current government projects that may be accounting for numerous UFO sightings occurring across the United States in our CMS Database currently!
Per Tim, “On November 8th, the US Air Force released a rah-rah public relations video called “Heritage Today – ISR and Innovation” and in it they embedded a few teaser shots that only lasted a few seconds of two new aircraft, both of which are presumed to be flying now.
Celera 500L
Finally, this is Otto Aviation’s new aircraft called the Celera 500L. It’s currently flying all around the country right now doing FAA flight testing at various airports. Guess what it looks like from a distance with wings and how many CMS reports it will generate. 18–25 mpg fuel economy (a comparable jet aircraft gets 2 – 3 mpg)
$328 hourly operating costs, (a comparable jet aircraft costs $2,100 per hour) . Max cruise speed projected to be in excess of 460 mph,4,500 nautical mile range,
Payload – 6 adult passengers, Comfort – 6’2” cabin height with 6 first-class seats. Thank you Tim Aines and Bob Spearing MUFON News
F/A-XX fighter
Editor’s Note:The United States’ sixth-generation F/A-XX fighter could destroy satellites in Space. It is the newest member of American military mind-burgling tech that has been evaluated, with a full-scale prototype having flown. Both Russia and China are developing sixth-generation fighters of their own, but many would agree that the advanced avionics and armaments of the American representatives are alien and powerful enough to become the beast of the future. The US Military has two separate programs with $1bln investment: one for the Navy to replace the F/A-18 Super Hornet and the other for the Air Force to retire the F-22.
Illuminated structure deep within Antarctica
Illuminated structure deep within Antarctica By Mary Joyce, website editor
A structure was found beneath Antarctica’s ice that appears to be
internally illuminated. It’s wall of “windows” is 385 feet in length.
Sixth cluster of structures emerging in Antarctica
All the right angles within the brownish portion of the Google Earth image below indicate another cluster of structures is emerging from Antarctica’s This is the sixth city or cluster of structures that’s been found. emerging from melting ice in Antarctica since September 2021. The ruins emerging from the continent’s melting ice are the oldest in the world. We continue to wonder why evidence of a 34-million-year-old civilization in Antarctica is being covered up? That should be exciting news, not something to be hidden from the public.
Photos of two entrances into Antarctica’s interior
We first posted photos of these two entrances into Antarctica One entrance appears to have a bowl-shaped metal “awning” over it. The other is big enough for a Boeing 747 to fly into with a 50-foot clearance off each wingtip. Drastic efforts have been made to hide the second entrance from public view. Above are Google satellite photos of two entrances into the interior of Antarctica. The first one has a metal bowl-shaped “awning” over it. The second one is said to be 295 feet at its widest point and 98 feet in height. To give a perspective to this, the wingspan of a Boeing 747 jet is 196 feet. We intended to provide coordinates for the two entrances so anyone could find them by copying and pasting them into the Google Earth search bar.
LEFT IMAGE: -6636’12.58”, +9943’12.72” RIGHT IMAGE: -6633’6.60”, +9050’24.84”?
The coordinates for the left image worked for us every time. It’s a different story with the right image. The coordinates no longer work. So, we found an old video showing the two entrance locations marked with yellow pushpins
The Germans allegedly tracked the alien humanoids from Atlantis to Antarctica to follow the Aryan race according to John Ramirez a retired GS-15 rank CIA Officer who investigated UFOs.
Here is a quick clip of the Air Force’s new drone the SR-72. This is presumed to be the new hypersonic space plane. Replaces legendary SR-71 Blackbird. Hypersonic means a minimum of 5 times faster than sound, or 3,800 mph plus. It is called the SR-72 and is a drone that replaces the SR 71.
Monsters of the Deep / UFO Encounters in Italy
Coelacanth fish
Nick Redfern a researcher of all things weird and mysterious, half to discuss unexplained monsters of the deep. Redfern used the example of the discovery of the coelacanth, a fish long thought extinct and only known from the fossil record, discovered alive in the Indian Ocean in 1938 (“a shock to zoology”) to illustrate his idea that many unknown and extinct animals may still exist and await discovery. Redfern said that the UK’s National Archives actually contains official reports of what appears to be sea serpents filed by the Royal Navy throughout the 19th century. He recalled a dramatic account from 1848 of a captain of a British ship called the Daedalus, who observed, along with his crew, an apparent life and death struggle where a “large serpent-type animal was seen coiled around a huge sperm whale.”
1876 /Captain Drevak and crew observe monster in Barque Pauline
The famed Loch Ness Monster first reported about 1500 years ago, the creature has been photographed, tracked on sonar, and even been the object of attempted exorcisms. Although some believe that the animal may be a surviving dinosaur, Redfern offered that it “may be something supernatural rather than flesh and blood.” He also recalled that in 1997, the US Navy detected anomalous underwater audio that sounded like some massive living thing– they called it the “Bloop” sound. Redfern said, “the government may have stumbled onto something not too different than [legendary horror writer H.P. Lovecraft’s apocalyptic creature named] Cthulhu.”
Loch Ness Monster
There are at least 1,000 close encounters of the second and third kind and abduction cases in Italy, showing the frequent, intelligent, and alien nature of UFO phenomena in that country. Renowned UFO researcher, Dr. Roberto Pinotti, appeared in the second half to discuss the history of UFO sightings in Italy and what the Italian government knows. Pinotti entered the Italian military in the 1960s at age 27. He was asked to author a report on UFOs for his superior officers, and it was actually published in an official Army journal. Since 1979, when UFO investigation was assigned to the Italian Air Force, Pinotti said that they have officially logged about 500 cases. In contrast, he said that his organization now has “more than 13,000 cases” that they have investigated.
Pinotti described a 1963 case when the Italian President’s car was approached closely by a UFO, which looked like an “English WWI helmet with portholes.”
English WWI helmet
An official report was created and later sent to the Pentagon in the US, which did not respond. He also revealed that in 1996, his group came into possession of UFO files from the Mussolini era, which they considered genuine after four years of forensic document research. One described an apparent 1933 UFO crash in which debris and even bodies were recovered. Pinotti said that the materials and “corpses of the pilots” were later taken to the United States by the Allied forces after WWII. He also discussed a statement from one of the directors of the Vatican astronomical observatory that, if aliens were ever found to be real, we could consider the “extraterrestrials [as] are our brothers.” George Knapp’s News 8/23/20
Jet Stream Flow Suggests Weather Control
Jet Stream very high in Alaska then brings cold to U.S.
Jet Stream that controls most weather streams are fast flowing winds above the surface of the Earth. I flew in them to get 100 MPH tail winds. The jet stream movement seems to be controlled possibly by China’s six HARPs causing massive high altitude bone dry clouds to alter the Jet Stream patterns.
As a doctoral student at George Mason University, Sam Monfort crunched the data from the National UFO Reporting Center and determined that the following locations are the top 20 hotspots for UFO sightings around the world. He published his data in early 2017.

Iran Threatens U.S. Homeland
Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi
Raisi vowed revenge on Monday for the US assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani two years ago unless former US President Donald Trump was put on trial.
“If Trump and former secretary of state Mike Pompeo are not tried in a fair court of law for the criminal act of assassinating General Soleimani, Muslims will take their martyr’s revenge,” Raisi said, according to state news agency IRNA.
“If not, I’m telling all American leaders, don’t doubt that the hand of revenge will come out of the sleeves of ummah,” Raisi said, referring to the worldwide community of Muslims.
Iran and allied groups in Iraq have been holding vigils to honor Soleimani, the former commander of the Quds Force, the overseas arm of the IRGC, who was killed in a drone strike in Iraq on January 3, 2020, along with Iraqi militia commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis.
The chief commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says the United States is fleeing from the region due to resistance of regional nations and has no more room to operate in West Asia.’
General Salami
Major General Hossein Salami made the remarks while addressing a ceremony saying, “In the political battle [with the West], Islam and Muslims have emerged victorious, and this is a reality. A proof [to this reality] is the humiliating escape of the [American] enemy from Afghanistan.” The Iranian forces will now strike at the U.S. heartland with our people already in the U.S “We are in the final stages of the resistance and this juncture has always been difficult, but the Iranian nation is certainly about to score a great triumph.”Salami said.
Large /amount of Arson Already Going on
I have been to Iran numerous times, flown in their military aircraft and this nation is very efficient and you can expect various forms of sabotage, attacks, and murder, which is likely already occurred. When the Iranians boast that strong attacks of the U.S. will happen as millions of illegal immigrants from a hundred of different countries including Iranians cross our Southern Border and are flown throughout the U.S.
The U.S. Government will likely not admit any sabotage and will call them accidents or the result of climate change. For example, Colorado wildfires destroy a thousand homes on December 31st near Denver — Winds driving fast-moving fires that forced tens of thousands of residents to evacuate their homes outside DenverInvestigators are still trying to determine what sparked a massive fire, but no power lines were down near the fire.
There is no question that the jihadists are concluding that they are winning, and now, with the frail, weakened Ghost in the White House it is time for them to STEP UP THEIR GAME to CONQUER THE WORLD.
Two armed Iranian drones were shot down as they approached a military facility hosting American forces at Baghdad’s international airport followed by several the following day.
It is likely the Iranian’s have perfected their nuclear weapons and could attempt to explode them in a soft target like Washington D.C., New York Harbor or Tel Aviv.
Iran-backed Houthi rebels captured a military cargo” ship of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the Red Sea. A vessel named Rawabi was kidnapped at 23:57 (2057 GMT) Sunday by the Houthi militia while off Hodeidah province according to Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya TV.
Iran’s military has threatened retaliatory attacks inside the US over the American assassination of Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Iran’s permanent representative to the United Nations also called on the UN Security Council to hold the US and Israel responsible for assassinating General Soleimani.
“Given the dire implications of this terrorist act on international peace and security, the Security Council must live up to its Charter-based responsibilities and hold the US and the Israeli regime to account for planning, supporting and committing that terrorist act,” Takht Ravanchi said in his letter to the UNSC.
At the time of the drone strike that killed Soleimani, the US justified its actions to the UN as “self-defense” and said it was prepared to take any additional actions “as necessary” in the Middle East to protest US personnel and interests.

Strange Craft
The True Story of an Air Force Intelligence Officer’s Life with UFOs
U.S. Air Force Major George Filer belongs to the generation of pilots and aviators who first became aware of the strange aircraft showing up in the Earth’s atmosphere after World War II. These men – military professionals who flew planes, served as radar operators and air traffic controllers at airfields around the world – began to whisper amongst themselves about encounters with suspected extraterrestrial aircraft.
During secret debriefings at U.S. bases, pilots and air crew told their commanders of seeing UFOs off their plane’s wings. Award-winning investigative author John Guerra spent four years interviewing Filer, a decorated intelligence officer.
From objects in the skies over Cold War Europe to a UFOs over during the Cuban Missile Crisis to lights over the DMZ in Vietnam Filer leaves nothing out about his Air Force UFO encounters,
Filer’s most memorable case – the shooting of an alien at Fort Dix Army Base in 1978 – is fully recounted for the first time in this book. As a member of the Disclosure Project, military experts, astronauts, and scientists urge the U.S. government to release all it knows about UFOs to the public.
Filer describes his UFO encounters in this incredible book, by John L. Guerra.

UFO Sightings in the United States
Sightings are from MUFON CMS
California Object
Elk– on December 30, 2021, when the sunsets I take pictures and noticed orb when I scanned over them. A blue object pops up, looks like it had 5 lights, then disappears. It does movements no plane could do. The pictures were shot at 4:52-53 PM. With the backlight from the sunset, any rocket contrails would have stood out, but there is none for 2 pictures. This was nothing like Vandenberg AFB 2nd stage ignitions.
Note: The photos have been requested, but no response. Thanks to Will Pucket/www.ufosnw.com/newsite/
Colorado Lights
Phoenix– on December 1, 2021.
Connecticut Object
New Haven— on January 4, 2022, saw these weird clouds I’ve never seen. Looked closed saw object shooting upward from the base. Note: Likely a plane.
Florida Lights
Hialeah— on January 2, 2022, I want you to analyze the video and tell me if this is accurate. This is the best footage I have. The video at right shows UFO diving into the ocean.
Georgia Lights
On January 3, 2022, as flying along at 39,000 feet in an Airbus A320 somewhere over Georgia I shot the beautiful Milky with my iPhone 13. Tried to take a video of another aircraft flying just above us and noticed this V shaped object. It appears to be between us and the other aircraft. Both Captain and I would like to be anonymous.
Illinois Triangle
Sims – on December 20, 2021, while traveling north on Route 5, I saw what looked like a bright light in the distance. As it came closer it “glided silently” over my vehicle with 3 lights on the bottom going across the triangle shaped object. The lights were horizontal in the middle of the object. We turn around as fast as we can and see it off to the left across the fields that are there. Then we lost it again since there was no road to follow/
Kentucky Object
Adolohus — on January 10, 2022, on my way home I saw a flame looking thong in the sky. I lost it over the trees and found it, so I was able to get a picture.
New Jersey Lights
Pelican Island – on December 29, 2021, driving towards the Jersey coast over the ocean I observed 4 separate sphere like lights all in different shapes and colors that moved south. I observed them near Seaside Heights. I’m an astronomy buff and I know these were not stars, or aircraft the way they moved. They were pulsating and seemed to change colors and objects were in a triangular pattern with the 4th object located south of the other 3.
New York Object
Brooklyn – on October 19, 2021, I saw a shimmering stationary object in the sky that was changing shape very quickly It looked like a portal was rotating across the object and there was a small light which blinked on and off about 20 feet away.
South Carolina Lights
Orangeburg— on January 6, 2022, I have taken pictures of frequent UFO activity and like to record proof. I have seen many UFOs that were far off, but this was close. The craft came from the tree line pulsing multicolored lights and two orbs came out of it and began to blink red. I worked on C-17s in the Air Force and know that this was no aircraft. These crafts were moving slow and disappeared in the trees. Note: Similar sighting in Australia on January 3, 2022.
Texas Object
Lake Dallas –on January 8, 2018, I have pictures of two UFOs my daughter took. I also saw two in Dallas on different dates. Both were translucent orange the smaller one was almond shaped and was following a Southwest jet. I saw both of these around sunset heading northeast.
Santa Anna– on December 27, 2021, the object is passing in front of the sun at high-speed wit vapor trails.
Note:The witness didn’t elaborate much on the details of the sighting.
Update – Jan 9, 2022: The witness sent two more photos taken with a game camera. The second photo above (12:40 PM) shows the object. I have no idea of the identity of this object, but it’s not a kite, balloon, or drone. Thanks to Will Pucket/www.ufosnw.com/newsite/
West Virginia Lights
A8gusta– on November 18, 2021, took the dog outside to discover these three objects flying directly over my house. They had many lights, some of which were steady and some flashing. They were moving slowly while emitting a humming sound.
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Australia Light
.
Maleny — on January 3, 2022, y wife, our 2 sons and their partners were sky watching when we noticed an extremely low bright light. It was heading from north and at one stage zipped extremely fast then faded out nowhere near the horizon. You can see it zip really fast as another one also seems to fade in above it.
Canada Object
Red Deer – on December 18, 2021, while delivering a food item I witnessed an object that was red in color. At first thought it could be a balloon, but it suddenly changed shape from oval to triangle and emitted a bright red light on top and bottom. It was gone in seconds.
Hudson Bay–- on March 21, 2021, they look like really bright twinkling stars that move around like no stars or satellites or anything celestial ever could. They are there outside of Cranbrook every night going on 16 months now. I have seen videos from 35 U.S. states and 11 other countries of similar objects. They look like the things flying around the Space Shuttle. Zoom in and they look like round disks of plasma pulsating, and changing colors, changing to diamond, square, or rectangle. They are now a global phenomenon that often project faces of humans or alien faces. I have hundreds of images with faces with them.
France Light
Le temple sur lot– on December 24, 2021, orange ball at medium altitude moving fast.
Germany Light
Altenriet– on December 31, 2021, I took a series of 12 photos from 11:55pm to 11:57pm., and early an object in a circular shape of lights appears with a second light near it. The shape changes to a triangle of three lights very high. Someone 2.5 hours north reported having also seen the object.
Mexico Lights
Tijuana– on December 24, 2021, while shooting a landscape picture showing Venus a light flew south over the Pacific coast was captured. It “looks blurry” because it moved so fast but next picture is fine. I noticed a hovering cloud next to the bright star. The main shape is oval, and it has three luminescent spots.
Philippines Light
Manila – on December 29, 2021, sitting on my balcony I noticed a mall bright white flying northeast, 1-2 kilometers away. It was definitely not an aircraft. Minutes later, the object re-appeared heading west. It flew directly over my building emitting a yellow light underneath.
Puerto Rico Light
Dorado– on January 2, 2022, it was floating then it just continues west over us.
Philippines Light
Manila– on December 29, 2021, sitting on my balcony I noticed a mall bright white flying northeast, 1-2 kilometers away. It was definitely not an aircraft. Minutes later, the object re-appeared heading west. It flew directly over my building emitting a yellow light underneath.
UK/England Object
Bicester on January 5, 2022, two large brown/black silent craft flew 20-40 feet above me quickly. After sunset they looked like a lozenge shape a little bigger than cars with small wings on each side. They were in formation with no lights, no sound, very low.

Curiosity, the silver-haired veteran of the Red Planet rover corps, has proven once again there’s still life in its batteries and surface samples driller – but has it proven that there’s life on Mars? Many recent headlines seem to be blaring this, but David Bowie wouldn’t be adding a verse just yet, and NASA agrees … although what Curiosity dug up is definitely an unusual carbon signature that is one of the signs of life. But … is it THE sign of life on Mars?
Curiosity
“After analyzing powdered rock samples collected from the surface of Mars by NASA’s Curiosity rover, scientists today announced that several of the samples are rich in a type of carbon that on Earth is associated with biological processes.”
That’s a pretty strong opening sentence in NASA’s press release on the discovery, which highlights findings soon to be published in the journal the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). Before we dig into what Curiosity dug up, a shout-out is in order for SAM – the Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) chemistry lab aboard Curiosity whose Tunable Laser Spectrometer (TLS) instrument inside it heated 24 samples from geologically diverse locations in the Gale crater (Curiosity’s Daytona International Speedway) to about 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit (850 degrees Celsius), releasing their gases and then measuring the isotopes. They surprisingly showed that nearly half of their samples containing high amounts of carbon 12 compared to the Martian atmosphere or Martian meteorites found on Earth. Drop the mic time?
“The hardest thing is letting go of Earth and letting go of that bias that we have and really trying to get into the fundamentals of the chemistry, physics and environmental processes on Mars.”
Not yet, says Goddard Space Flight Center astrobiologist and study participant Jennifer L. Eigenbrode. One explanation for the carbon signatures is that the Solar System once passed through a giant, molecular cloud of dust that left the carbon deposits behind. Another is that ultraviolet light converted CO2 to organic compounds through abiotic (non-biological) processes – this can happen on Earth as well. Finally, there’s the biggie – Mars may have once had methane-producing microbes living on its surface.
“All three possibilities point to an unusual carbon cycle unlike anything on Earth today. But we need more data to figure out which of these is the correct explanation.”
We need to send some humans.
In a separate press release, Penn State geoscientist and study leader Christopher House points out that not only is Mars not like Earth today, it may have never been much like its close neighbor. The same could be said of Curiosity – it may not have its own helicopter like Perseverance, but its discoveries keep revealing more details about the freakiest show that may one day answer David Bowie’s most famous question — is there life on Mars?
Guys, I was looking into this photo again that I reported a 25km structure on Mars in...and the URL is giving me a 404 error code and it says, "The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists." If that doesn't scream out guilty by NASA then I don't know what does. This photo was just taken off line after making it into world news several times! Look at the screenshot below to see it in the news.
This is why I make videos and give you the sources...but NASA is using my information, stealing it, to edit their photo index! That means what I found...is 100% real! And NASA just admitted to it by deleting it!
