Landlocked Bermuda Triangle: The Mexican Zone of Silence

Of all the sites that are unexplained, the Bermuda Triangle is usually the first one that comes to mind. Located in the Caribbean, it is renowned for the ships and radio signals that have disappeared without explanation in recent years. Yet, there is another, perhaps lesser known region in which the inexplicable occurs. This location is often referred to quite simply as Mexico's Zone of Silence.

A Land Were Radio Signals Die

Located in the Chihuahuan Desert (not titled such for an unexplained number of dogs), Mexico's Zone of Silence is precisely what it sounds like: a pocket of land in which radio signals die, preventing communication to and from the area, and directionality loses all meaning. According to reports from visitors of the area, which is also known as the Mapimí Silent Zone, if one brings a compass as a backup tool, that person is out of luck—the arrow of the compass will spin uncontrollably, confusing all sense of direction. Consider the spinning compass from Disney's Pocahontas…just without the sage old Grandmother Willow to decipher the compass' meaning.

One of the most prominent investigators of the Zone is a man called Benjamin Palacios, known for his somewhat touristy home and the tours of the Zone he provides to visitors to the region. However, it seems that the mysteries of this site were not always known.

Rumors abound that the Mexican government hid the unexplained occurrences, possibly evidenced by the lack of tourist sites, hotels, etc. nearby the desert. Supposedly the site was only exposed to the public as unusual when an American missile mistakenly crashed in the Zone of Silence. While retrieving the missile, United States agents were exposed to the unexplained.

An article regarding the statement from the US government claims that,

"On July 11, 1970, the United States Air Force launched an ATHENA V-123-D rocket from Green River Launch Complex in Utah. While its intended target was the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, it impacted '180-200 miles south of the Mexican border,' according to a recently released memorandum sent from the desk of Henry Kissinger, then serving as National Security Advisor to President Nixon."

It appears, if this quote is accurate, that a technological error revealed the Zone of Silence as an unexplained, possibly alien, site.

As is the case with most locations described as unexplained, "research" is ongoing to determine what other factors might be playing a role in the strange activity of the site. Reports of plant and animal investigations are plentiful, as well as an examination of the geological make-up of the region.

Stories of Alien Sightings in the Zone of Silence

And, of course, as with all locations in which the words "unexplained" or "inexplicable" are attached to their names, rumors of alien investigations are equally extensive.

It appears that numerous people have reported UFOs in the region, strange lights, and burning bushes, not unlike those described anywhere near Roswell, New Mexico or Area 51. It is also intriguing for theorists to point out the Zone of Silence falls on the same coordinates as the Bermuda Triangle, itself only recently (likely) explained.

More Earthly Explanations

Yet, aside from the numerous theories of UFO and alien influence in the Zone's fifty-kilometer (31-mile) radius, the unexplained occurrences might, in fact, have explanations. Scientists have discovered underground deposits of meteorite debris called magnetite. Essentially, magnetics beneath the surface of the desert are what disrupt radio waves and the metal arrow of compasses.

This theory further explains the enigmatic site when one realizes that meteorites striking the Chihuahuan Desert were not uncommon in the 1900s; three have been reported striking the desert between 1938 and 1969. Those that prefer the theory of aliens likely do not hold much stock in the meteorite claims. Perhaps these people prefer to insist on a government cover-up, or an extraterrestrial trick.

Regardless, it appears that the Zone of Silence remains among the list of the unexplained, more than likely because it is far more beneficial for tourist revenue than the title "the Zone of the not-so-unexplained Silence."

Wondering how Dependant ISS is on Russia? NASA Gives the Details

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has been dominating the news cycle lately. Amid tragic stories about rocket strikes, stalled offensives, and possible motives and outcomes, there’s been an ongoing “war of words” on social media. In particular, Dmitry Rogozin, the Director-General of the Russian State Space Corporation (Roscosmos), has been issuing thinly-veiled threats that Russia might be terminating its cooperation in space.

This included a video posted on Telegram by the state-controlled Russian news agency RIA Novosti that shows the Russian modules detaching from the International Space Station (ISS). In response to all the threats and hyperbole, NASA decided to host an FAQ session where they posted commonly-asked questions about the ISS. In what is eerily reminiscent of what happened in 2014, NASA let the world know that the ISS is still going strong and won’t be decommissioned anytime soon!

While the FAQ session does not address statements made by Rogozin directly, it tacitly acknowledges and answers them strategically. For example, NASA addressed the nature of the ISS partnership, which nations are involved*, how astronauts will continue to fly to the ISS if one space agency no longer provides launch services, and the plan for decommissioning the station.

*Member states include NASA, Roscosmos, the European Space Agency (ESA), the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).

First and foremost, they stress that one cannot simply disassemble the ISS by detaching its modules. This was a direct challenge to the video posted by RIA Novosti and the way it depicted cosmonauts sealing their modules and leaving like it was no big deal. Says NASA:

“The space station was not designed to be disassembled, and current interdependencies between each segment of the station prevent the U.S. Orbital Segment and Russian Segment from operating independently. Attempts to detach the U.S. Orbital Segment and the Russian Segment would encounter major logistical and safety challenges given the multitude of external and internal connections, the need to control spacecraft attitude and altitude, and software interdependency.”

They then provide a seven-point list detailing how operations are interdependent and who provides what. This includes propulsion and attitude control (Roscosmos), altitude control and orientation (NASA), thrusters and propellant (Roscosmos), solar power (NASA), satellite communications and data transfer between Earth and the station (NASA), life support (both), and mission control (both).

Then there’s the issue of getting to and from the ISS, which they admit is not presently doable. “Each astronaut has custom hardware including a launch and entry suit or a seat liner that is not interchangeable between different models of spacecraft,” they write, adding that transferring from one spacecraft to another would “require a different launch and entry suit that is custom fitted and created on the ground.”

The issue of transportation has been a sore point ever since 2011 when the Space Shuttle’s retirement forced NASA and its partners to rely upon Roscosmos to provide launch services. When Russian forces annexed Crimea in 2014, this dependency became a bone of contention. In response to the U.S. declaring sanctions, Dmitry Rogozin (then-deputy Prime Minister to Dmitry Medvedev) chimed in on Twitter to mock the U.S. and NASA.

“After analyzing the sanctions against our space industry, I suggest to the USA to bring their astronauts to the International Space Station using a trampoline,” he wrote. Musk responded shortly thereafter, tweeting: “Sounds like this might be a good time to unveil the new Dragon Mk 2 spaceship that @SpaceX has been working on w @NASA. No trampoline needed.”

Oh, how history repeats itself! On March 3rd, shortly after President Biden announced new sanctions against Russia, Rogozin took to state television to say that Roscosmos was halting the sale of rocket engines to the U.S. “In a situation like this, we can’t supply the United States with our world’s best rocket engines,” he said. “Let them fly on something else, their broomsticks, I don’t know what.”

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson responded to The Associated Press, stressing that cooperation between NASA and Roscosmos’ was not in jeopardy, regardless of Rogozin’s statements. “That’s just Dmitry Rogozin. He spouts off every now and then. But at the end of the day, he’s worked with us,” he said. “The other people that work in the Russian civilian space program, they’re professional. They don’t miss a beat with us, American astronauts, and American mission control.”

Alas, Musk took to Twitter once again to respond. On March 3rd, he shared a video of SpaceX launching its latest batch of Starlink satellites, followed by the words “American Broomstick” and four U.S. flags. Was this perhaps a reminder that NASA and SpaceX restored domestic launch capability to U.S. soil in 2020 using the Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon capsule?

Regardless, the issue of steering and control is also raised in the NASA FAQ session. This is especially important, as it addresses the statement made by Rogozin about how – without the Russian modules steering it – the ISS would “fall” on the U.S., Europe, India, or China (basically, anywhere but Russia). First, they addressed what parts of Earth the station fly over:

“The International Space Station orbits with an inclination of 51.6 degrees. This means that, as it orbits, the farthest north and south of the Equator it will ever go is 51.6 degrees latitude.” They state. They also offer links to the orbit Tutorial page (so people can see precisely how the ISS orbits Earth) and the Spot The Station page, where sighting opportunities can be found.

In another question, the NASA FAQ addresses which space agency provides propulsion and explains how steerage is dependent on more than just the Russian modules:

“All International Space Station propulsion is provided by the Russian Segment and Russian cargo spacecraft. Propulsion is used for station reboost, attitude control, debris avoidance maneuvers and eventual deorbit operations are handled by the Russian Segment and Progress cargo craft. The U.S. gyroscopes provide day-to-day attitude control or controlling the orientation of the station. Russian thrusters are used for attitude control during dynamic events like spacecraft dockings and provide attitude control recovery when the gyroscopes reach their control limits.”

However, they remind us the ISS program has been in continuous operation for 21 years, thanks to ongoing cooperation between its international partners. They further point out that NASA has agreed to extend the life of the ISS through 2028 and that “NASA’s space agency partners have all recommended International Space Station extension through 2030 with approvals pending through their own government processes.”

This includes Roscosmos, which is committed to remaining with the ISS program until 2024 and even added their “Nauka” module last year. This guidance and navigation module is the first to be added since 2016 and will provide additional attitude control capabilities to the ISS. NASA also explained how the safe deorbiting of the ISS (when it is decommissioned, years from now) is a priority all parties are committed to:

“The primary objective during space station deorbit operations is the safe re-entry of the space station’s structure into an unpopulated area in the ocean as outlined in the agency’s International Space Station transition plan.“

This plan, which was updated on January 31st, 2022, details the administration’s goals for the ISS until 2030. The plan calls for operations that allow for a smooth transition to commercial services, the development of the supply and demand end of a “commercial economy” in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), and the technical steps and budgets this will entail.

“The space station will accomplish the deorbit maneuvers by using the propulsive capabilities of the space station and its visiting spacecraft,” they add. “NASA and its partners have evaluated varying quantities of Russian Progress spacecraft to support deorbit operations. Additionally, NASA is evaluating whether U.S. commercial spacecraft can be modified to provide capability to deorbit the space station.”

This includes the Northrop Grumman Cygnus spacecraft, which NASA claims is “currently in testing to provide limited capability for future reboosts.” They acknowledge that this is not a long-term solution or a replacement for attitude control functions and that “[c]hanges to the current propulsion scheme would take considerable new hardware/software development, and significant time and funding to enact.”

Not mentioned is the SpaceX Crew Dragon, which Musk and other sources online claim could replace the Russians segment. With relatively minor modifications, they argue, Crew Dragon spacecraft could provide reboost capability and attitude control. If feasible, this could constitute a solid backup option and would be in keeping with how NASA has transitioned to commercial suppliers to meet much of its needs.

The takeaway from all of this is that operations aboard the ISS are and always have been interdependent. Russia cannot simply pack up and detach its modules any more than Rogozin could sprout wings and fly there to shoot some propaganda videos. While they don’t say so, NASA’s FAQ page reminds us that the ISS has endured political turmoil before and survived.

For the past eight years, while Russia and the U.S. have been locked in a state of mutual hostility, NASA and Roscomos have maintained good relations. Even when politicians were threatening war and sanctions, astronauts and cosmonauts managed to work together amiably aboard the ISS. Perhaps world leaders could take a page from their book?

Clif High: UFO Technology & What Happened at Roswell - Crystals, Crafts Overhead, Night Vision, Ships Fleeing

Clif High has a patent on computer-assisted reading technology which allows reading from computer screens at up to 2000 words per minute. Reaching into other areas of hidden potential within language use by humans, he has been developing a system of software internet agents (like search engines use) and other proprietary processing methods to predict future events.

The software project, begun in 1997, captures near-real-time changes in language patterns within internet discussions. Then, employing radical linguistic techniques of his own devising, he develops a model which anticipates future events with some seeming accuracy. The processing has, at its core, a method of assigning emotional values to complex content and time carry-values to predict changes in future behavior based on how people are using language now.

Since June 2001 when the work projected a major ‘tipping point’, that is a ‘life-changing event’ with aspects of ‘military and accident’ that would forever change the way we live to occur inside 90 days, the web bot project has continued to give archetype descriptors of future events such as the anthrax attack in Washington, the crash of American 587, the Columbia disaster, the Northeast Power outage, the Banda Aceh earthquake and most recently the flooding of the Red River. As a continuing project, reports are offered from the extracted archetype information at his web site, www.halfpasthuman.com

Third Shipwreck Today, This One Has Treasure! March 20, 2022, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: March 20, 2022
Location of discovery: Uluma Reef, 
Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea 

Google Coordinates:  11° 6'23.30"S 150°57'47.66"E 

 

I was going over Google Earth Map and had a bit of bad luck today. Found a third sunken ship. This one was laden with treasure. The wooden hull of the craft is mostly gone, but its boxes of metallic objects, coins, swords, cannons and more are strewn about. I also see an area where there are about 8-10 wooden boxes with treasure in them. By now the wood is mostly gone, but the treasure is visible when I use a special focus on my photo program. It really pops out. There is something there, maybe millions worth of gold and silver, just waiting for someone to go get it. 

This might not look like a shipwreck to many people, but as you know...I have an eye for it. It takes years of practice before it's easy to do. 

There is also a legend of a Japanese transport (plane or ship is unknown) in WWII that left Papua New Guinea with 375 million US in gold bars, heading to Japan with boxes of gold bricks. I wonder, if this is that aircraft? Aircraft metal would deteriorate faster since is thin aluminum and corrodes more easily. The thickness of the craft does seem similar to what we see here. Also would explain the debris field around it.

I believe it's the metallic luminosity of gold that causes the photo to adjust this was below. The boxes are gone, but the gold bars mostly remain, some is strewn about.

Second Ancient Shipwreck Today Found On Google Earth, March 20, 2022, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: March 20, 2022

Location of discovery: Pana Waipona Island

Google coordinates: 11°16'8.27"S 152° 8'37.59"E

 

More bad news, didn't find a UFO or base, but found a second sunken ship. This one is torn into three pieces and sits about 5-10 meters below the ocean water. This one would be 50-60meters long and 8 meters wide. very cool and strange, but since it is a discovery of another unknown shipwreck I decided to post it here to share. Maybe one day some treasure hunters will find this post and say...lets go explore it. Only by understanding our past, can we understand our future.

Ancient Shipwreck Off Island Of Sabara, Google Earth Map, March 20, 2022, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: March 20, 2022

Location of discovery: Island of Sabara, Netherlands
Google coordinates:  11° 6'14.40"S 153° 4'52.84"E

 

I was searching on Google Earth map when I found an old ship wreck of the edge of Sabara Island. Google ruler measures the ship to be 40 meters long and 7.5 meters wide. I can clearly see a tall mast at its back quarter area. The hull of the ship is dark in the depth of the ocean, and its difficult to decide if its metal or wooden. This doesn't resemble any fishing vessel I have ever seen. I think for this wreck to go overlooked for so long, it must be a few hundred years old. I thought this one is undocumented and may be of archeological value to a museum who wishes to explore and recover any museum worthy material it may have. I believe it to be an undocumented ship wreck. I could find nothing of it when doing a Google search.

UFO Over Gold Coast Queensland Australia, ‎March 12, ‎2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Sat March 12, 2022 5:54PM

Location of sighting: Gold Coast, Australia

 

Watch this amazing raw footage of a dark disk in the sky during a windy day in Australia. The disk was seen by many people and the person recoded it, but only got 18 seconds of it. He said he had more, but he mistakenly didn't hit the record button correctly, and it failed to start. Then he hit the stop button and it began to record his feet. Yeah...thats happened to me to a few times, so yeah, I get it.  He also accidentally recorded his feet when he forgot to turn off the video, but they are talking about seeing windows on the object. 

 

This disk has some great control, because even on a windy day, it stays level...only turning slightly. Undeniable evidence that classic UFO disks exist! Australia is a hotbed of UFO activity and this video...enforces it.

UFOs over Fukushima after 7.3 earthquake hits Japan!

That’s quite a controversial title for an article. But, it most definitely fits the content of that very same article, as you will see now. In August 1995, the Canovanas region of the island of Puerto Rico was hit by a spate of very bizarre attacks on farm animals. The unfortunate creatures – typically goat, chickens, and pigs – were found dead with deep puncture wounds to their necks and amid claims that significant amounts of blood were missing from their corpses. Farmers were on edge, the media had an absolute field day, and the people of Puerto Rico were plunged into states that ranged from fear to hysteria. When similar killings began to be reported in numerous other parts of Puerto Rico that fear was amplified to even greater levels. All of which is hardly surprising, when one takes into consideration the physical appearance of the beast that was believed to be behind all of the slaughtering. The first person – so far as we know – to see the beast was a woman named Madeline Tolentino, who lived in Canovanas, the initial scene of all the action, and whose story is told in Ben Radford’s 2011 book, Tracking the Chupacabra. She described it as a fairly compact animal that ran on two legs – in a strange hopping style – and which had what looked like row of feathers running down the back of its head and spine. As media interest grew and grew, so did sightings of the mysterious monster. But, that’s when things became not just interesting, but beyond interesting. There is a very good reason for that: not everyone saw the same beast that Tolentino encountered. Or, at least, it did not look the same.

(Nick Redfern)

On one of my many treks around Puerto Rico while seeking for the Chupacabra

It is one thing to suggest that, in the 1990s, one unknown and dangerous animal was on the loose on Puerto Rico. It is quite another, however, to suggest that multiple, strange creatures were running wild on the island. And, yet, that appears to have been exactly what was going on. Unless, all of the reports were of the same monster. But, given their physical differences, how could that be? Very easily, that is how, if the Chupacabra is a shapeshifter. As amazing as it may sound, a significant amount of data points in that specific direction. Although the first sighting of the creature in the summer of 1995 effectively dictated how the locals perceived the animal to look, not everyone reported something that resembled the monster seen by Madeline Tolentino, as we shall now see. In the days, weeks, months – and even years – that followed, countless reports of Chupacabra attacks on farm animals were reported. The problem, however, is that the descriptions of the beast varied to incredible degrees.

(Nick Redfern)

A small portion of Puerto Rico’s El Yunque rain forest

In some cases, witnesses told of seeing an animal that did not have the feathery line running along the back of its head, neck and spine, as described by Tolentino. Instead, they saw a row of menacing-looking spikes, which stood erect and around four to five inches in length. And, of course, it would be very hard to mistake a line of feathers for a row of vicious spikes! Then, there was the matter of how the animal ran. According to both Tolentino and the majority of the early witnesses, it was a bipedal beast, albeit one which bounced along in a bizarre hopping fashion. Others, however, were sure that the creatures they saw ran on four limbs only. And there was nothing bizarre about its movements: they were likened to the way in which a large cat – such as a mountain lion – would stalk its prey. Now, let us take a look at the eyes of the Chupacabra. Some sightings involved creatures with bright blue eyes. In other cases, the eyes were of a piercing, devilish red and glowing variety.

(Nick Redfern) P

uerto Rico: The lair of the Chupacabra

The most significant factor, however, was the matter of the wings of the Chupacabra. Yes, that is correct: wings. In some cases, but most certainly not all, the creatures were said to have had large and powerful-looking bat-like wings. In other words, they were black and leathery-looking. When faced with such stories, other witnesses swore the monsters had absolutely no wings at all. Adding to the puzzle is the fact that on my second expedition to seek out the Puerto Rican Chupacabra, I spoke with a man named Pucho who saw such a thing, but which had wings like those of a large bird: they were feathery. Most controversial of all are the reports of the Chupacabra transforming into a large and lumbering Bigfoot! I should stress that such reports are rare, and few and far between. However, I do have eleven such reports in my files. In all the cases, the witnesses saw the Chupacabra engulfed by a near-blinding white light and then mutating into a large, hair-covered humanoid, before their startled eyes. When we put all of this information together, we are clearly face with a major-sized conundrum: how can one creature take on multiple appearances and forms? Well, the answer is that no normal animal can do such a thing. But, there is nothing normal about the Chupacabra. Rather, everything suggests it is undeniably abnormal.

(Nick Redfern)

One of the many caves in Puerto Rico

On all of my many trips to Puerto Rico, I have heard several, often-repeated theories for what the beasts are or may be. The list includes alien beings, giant bats, and the products of secret labs run by scientists engaging in bizarre genetic-, cloning- and gene-splicing experiments. And there is one more theory: that the Chupacabras were invoked, or conjured up by clandestine groups that engage in the black arts, and who are directly responsible for creating a portal, or what we might call a supernatural doorway, that lets the monsters enter our world at will. There is no doubt at all that Puerto Rico is home to multiple cults and secret societies that engage in animal sacrifice, ritual magic, and occult practices. I know that, as I have had the opportunity to speak with a few of them. They are dangerous and powerful bodies, ones not to be crossed with. The most likely scenario to explain the nature and presence of the Puerto Rican Chupacabra, however, is that it is the shapeshifting denizen of another realm of existence. It is a monster that, when called forth, eagerly made a new home – as well as an entirely new hunting ground – on the island, and still has no intention of returning to the weird realm from which it first surfaced.

NASA’s SLS Moon rocket rolls out to the launch pad for the first time

Around noon EST on Thursday, March 17th, the high bay doors of NASA’s vast Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) opened, revealing the first fully assembled Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft.

About six hours later, the massive rocket departed the VAB for the first time ever and began a four-mile (6.4 km) journey to Pad 39B atop Crawler-Transporter 2. This is the first time a Moon rocket has rolled out of NASA’s Vehicle Assembly Building since Saturn V headed to Pad 39A for Apollo 17 in 1972.

Crawler-Transporter 2 is a building-sized vehicle responsible for carrying NASA rockets – and their even more massive ‘mobile launch platforms’ – from the assembly building to the launch pad. The 6.6-million-pound (~3000 ton) vehicle has a top speed of two miles per hour (~3.2 km/h) while unloaded and one mile per hour (~1.6 km/h) while loaded and is designed to carry a payload of up to 18 million pounds (~8100 tons). The crawler ultimately took about 11 hours to transport SLS, Orion, and MLP-1 to Launch Complex 39B (LC-39B/Pad 39B).

Once the rocket and MLP-1 are fully installed on Pad 39B and the crawler has moved a safe distance away, SLS will be put through its first series of fully integrated tests, culminating in a wet dress rehearsal (WDR) as few as two weeks from now. Once the wet-dress is complete, SLS will be rolled back to the VAB for final launch preparations, including final Orion spacecraft processing, flight software updates. the identification and the repair of any issues found or wear generated during testing.

SLS is comprised of a core stage (CS-1), upper stage (the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage or ICPS), two solid rocket boosters (SRBs), an incomplete but spaceworthy Orion spacecraft, and a new mobile launch platform (MLP-1). This particular vehicle will be responsible for Artemis-1, an uncrewed test flight that will attempt to inject Orion into orbit around the Moon. While most of the spacecraft’s systems are in place, Artemis 1’s Orion will have no life support or environmental control hardware installed and also lacks a docking adapter.

NASA and its SLS/Orion contractors have subcontracted parts of the rocket and spacecraft’s development to more than 1,100 companies spread across the US, as well as every NASA center. SLS and Orion prime contractors include Boeing, Aerojet Rocketdyne, Northrup Grumman, and the United Launch Alliance. Once completed and qualified, all hardware was shipped to Kennedy Space Center, where the SLS rocket was then fully assembled inside the VAB. All Artemis 1 hardware arrived at KSC by the end of April 2021.

NASA says SLS’ launch debut is now expected to occur no earlier than (NET) May or June 2022. However, given the program’s history of delays, particularly surrounding major integrated testing, it’s likely that this stage of SLS testing will take longer than expected, so launch dates should only be treated as placeholders until the rocket has completed prelaunch testing and been inspected and recertified back inside the VAB.

Four UFOs Over Seen After 7.4 Earthquake At Fukushima, Japan Video, March 17, 2022, UFO Sighting News.

 

 

Date of sighting: March 17, 2022

Location of sighting: Fukushima, Japan

 

A person in Japan was watching the news after there was a huge 7.4 earthquake in the city of Fukushima, Japan. They noticed four rotating glowing lights in the sky over the city. The eyewitness recorded it directly from the TV and reported it on Twitter a few minutes ago. Fukushima is the same location where there was a huge earthquake that caused a tidal wave damaging the nuclear reactor and...and then on TV news that day too...a UFO was seen passing over the city. Its more than obvious that aliens have a deep personal investment in Fukushima...which leads me to think...there is an alien base below that city that may extend out into the ocean for miles!

The UFO Org MUFON Has Not Shared Videos Or Photos From Public Reports In Over Two Months, UFO Sighting News.

Here is something very mysterious in the area of UFO research. The UFO org MUFON has stopped updating the data on publics UFO reports. What I mean is they share the basic info, however they no longer share the publics photos or videos in those reports. I have Tweeted to @MUFON several times over the last two months, however I have not received a single reply. I have also seen dozens of other UFO researchers asking the same question..."Why isn't MUFON showing the photos and videos from the publics UFO reports?" 

I am afraid that MUFON is becoming a for profit organization and that they are holding back all the video and photo evidence in order to make money. They already show this idea when they made the TV Series MUFON Insider with Imdb back in 2019... I feel that MUFON only cares about making money, and as John Lock once said, "money creates power and power corrupts." I am afraid that MUFON may become a less and less dependable source of UFO information for researchers worldwide, and more of a form of entertainment instead. 

Below are a few tweets sent to @MUFON that have gone unanswered for the last two months.

White Sphere Seen Over Honolulu, Hawaii, USAF Sends Jets To Intercept! Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: February 2022

Location of sighting: Honolulu, Hawaii, USA

 

This UFO was seen over Honolulu last month. They call it a balloon, however on closer inspection, I see its a UFO. You see there is a string like object hanging down from the craft, but its not a string, but an antenna. Any string for a balloon would be very long and much thicker to hold such a huge balloon. However...this thin object sticking from the bottom is so very thin that you almost don't notice it. This shape, color and size of UFO is very similar to the ones seen over Denver, Colorado by thousands of residents and police. Its also similar to the UFO that came down over holy temple Dome of Rock in Jerusalem back in 2011. I am 100% confident that this is a UFO. The USAF cannot track balloons with aircraft radars. I have a friend who is a General in the Taiwan Air Force and I asked him that exact question...and he laughed and said no. I asked if it were dozens of metallic reflective party balloons...and he said no. Not even the mirror reflective balloons could be seen on radar...and that is from my friend who right now teaches students to fly F16s. 

 

Also the object was flying over a US military missile range...investigating the new USAF tech. The jets intercepted it, but claim it was just a balloon. The military always denys that UFOs exist. It's routine for them. This was an undeniable encounter of US jets with a UFO.

 UFO Fleet Over Las Vegas Nevada, Caught On Doorcam! March 15, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: March 15, 2022

Location of sighting: Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

 

Wow, watch a fleet of UFOs shooting past a guys doorjamb at night in Las Vegas, Nevada. The objects are flying really low and close the the tops of the houses. Most public and military jets have rules that prevent them from flying this low, so I don't think those are military jets. Two come so close they look like flying disks! Amazing video and great proof that aliens exist and they enjoy buzzing over Las Vegas. Viva Las Vegas! 

 

Its also a well known fact that in Las Vegas, is Nellis USAF base. And the US military gave an allotment of land to the TALL WHITES, a species of alien that lives to be 800 years old. They were go given land behind the old firing range behind Nellis AFB. They used the land to create underground bases, where their UFOs do not inform the USAF of their comings and goings.

UFO Fleet Shimmers In Sky Over Austin, Texas On March 13, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: March 13, 2022

Location of sighting: Austin, Texas, USA

Twitter source: @EilisMoonTexas

 

This video was posted by Beth Diana on Twitter. The video shows a shimmering fleet of shiny UFOs in an overcast sky. Now at first you might think Starlink satellites, however...there is a slightly overcast sky, meaning a huge thick low cloud ceiling...and these objects are below it. Therefore it's not SpaceX. There are dozens of these UFOs and they are flashing from different places in the sky, communicating to each other. It also sounds like there are military jets in the area to investigate the UFOs...sadly we only hear them, we don't see the jets in the video. Absolutely fantastic raw video and 100% proof UFOs are over Texas!

Paul Blake Smith has extensively researched historical records, whistleblower testimony, and documentary evidence that President Dwight D. Eisenhower had multiple close encounters with extraterrestrials. These encounters may have begun as early as 1948/1949 when he was working with the Truman administration, according to Smith’s analysis of a leaked 1989 Defense Intelligence Agency document.

In his book, President Eisenhower’s Close Encounters (2020), Smith presents an impressive body of evidence that during his Presidency, Eisenhower met with extraterrestrial delegations on at least three occasions at Edwards Air Force Base (Feb 1954); Kirtland AFB (July 1954), and Holloman AFB (Feb 1955), which culminated in secret agreements. In this Exopolitics Today interview, Smith and Dr. Michael Salla discuss these key events and their significance.

In late November 2021, a woman in Argentina, after regaining her memory of the event, claimed she was abducted by a bright UFO, carried for 40 miles, then left on a road 24 hours later where she was found and taken to a hospital. Details of her experience were scarce, her phone – which would have traveled with her and could have clues to what happened – seems to have disappeared, she had unexplained injuries, tracking dogs lost her scent near where she was allegedly abducted, and government officials are still investigating the incident. While skeptics and believers fought, the woman – Irma Rick – continued to give interviews – including one this past week when she revealed she may be pregnant … with an alien-human hybrid baby.

Why adopt when we can have our own?

“I am pregnant by an alien.”

In an interview on the “Bahía Hoy” program broadcast by La Brújula 24, the 55-year-old woman claimed she has a lot of things to tell” … starting with a possible alien pregnancy from her 24-hour, 40-mile trip in the backseat of a flying ET vehicle. How does she know? Green morning sickness?

“I don’t have a belly yet, I feel discomfort, things that happen to me. I have to consult the prosecutor because she does not want me to talk much yet.”

She’s talking to prosecutor Virginia Antón to make sure she doesn’t affect her case, but has she talked to her doctor? It seems part of the reason Irma Rick appeared on Bahia Hoy was to kickstart the examination to see what’s kicking indie her.

“I am doing studies because I can have an alien pregnancy. I don’t ask for much, I have to do a lot of things, I ask for a little help. Tomorrow I have to do ultrasounds and stuff. Supposedly I got pregnant when they took me away.”

Before you write off Irma’s pregnancy – or whatever medical condition she seems to have incurred since her alleged abduction — it’s worth noting that Jacinto Aráuz, the La Pampa town she calls home, has UFO investigators interviewing residents and they’ve found a number of others who saw a UFO or a bright light in the sky on November 16, 2021. Despite their efforts, these ufologists have neither proved nor disproved Irma’s story. It doesn’t seem anyone has interviewed her husband – who must be puzzled that his 55-year-old wife is pregnant by someone – or some alien – who is not him.

We’ll return it when we’re done, kid.

“Mrs. Irma Rick had a case in June 2002 with an experience in Jacinto Arauz, in the house where she lives.”

Carlos Ferguson, a well-known Argentine UFO investigator, reminded La Brújula 24 that this isn’t Irma’ Rick’s first rodeo with ETs – she also reported an experience in the same location in 2002. Her calls her a credible witness “who consistently stuck to what she had seen” and is not “a mythomaniac, delusional or contacted person or with any characteristic that does not fit into something objective.”

Alien abductees often have multiple experiences with UFOs and ETs, and Irma is not the first to announce she’s carrying an alien or hybrids baby. However, the amount of media attention being given to her – at least in South America – makes her different … and worth watching once she finally (hopefully?) sees a doctor.
