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

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

    What is the Big Bang Theory?

    The Big Bang Theory explains how the universe began 13.7 billion years ago.

    The Big Bang Theory is the leading explanation for howbegan. Simply put, it says the universe as we know it started with an infinitely hot and dense single point that inflated and stretched — first at unimaginable speeds, and then at a more measurable rate — over the next 13.7 billion years to the still-expanding cosmos that we know today.

    Existing technology doesn't yet allow astronomers to literally peer back at the universe's birth, much of what we understand about the Big Bang comes from mathematical formulas and models. Astronomers can, however, see the "echo" of the expansion through a phenomenon known as the cosmic microwave background.

    While the majority of the astronomical community accepts the theory, there are some theorists who have alternative explanations besides the Big Bang — such as eternal inflation or an oscillating universe.

    THE BIRTH OF THE UNIVERSE

    Around 13.7 billion years ago, everything in the entire universe was condensed in an infinitesimally small singularity, a point of infinite denseness and heat. 

    Suddenly, an explosive expansion began, ballooning our universe outwards faster than the speed of light. This was a period of cosmic inflation that lasted mere fractions of a second — about 10^-32 of a second, according to physicist Alan Guth’s 1980 theory that changed the way we think about the Big Bang forever. 

    When cosmic inflation came to a sudden and still-mysterious end, the more classic descriptions of the Big Bang took hold. A flood of matter and radiation, known as "reheating," began populating our universe with the stuff we know today: particles, atoms, the stuff that would become stars and galaxies and so on.

    Hubble images show the far-distant galaxy GN-z11 as it appeared shortly after the Big Bang.

    This all happened within just the first second after the universe began, when the temperature of everything was still insanely hot, at about 10 billion degrees Fahrenheit (5.5 billion Celsius), according to NASA. The cosmos now contained a vast array of fundamental particles such as neutrons, electrons and protons — the raw materials that would become the building blocks for everything that exists today.

    This early "soup" would have been impossible to actually see because it couldn't hold visible light. "The free electrons would have caused light (photons) to scatter the way sunlight scatters from the water droplets in clouds," NASA stated. Over time, however, these free electrons met up with nuclei and created neutral atoms or atoms with equal positive and negative electric charges. 

    This allowed light to finally shine through, about 380,000 years after the Big Bang.

    Sometimes called the "afterglow" of the Big Bang, this light is more properly known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB). It was first predicted by Ralph Alpher and other scientists in 1948 but was found only by accident almost 20 years later.

    This accidental discovery happened when Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, both of Bell Telephone Laboratories in New Jersey, were building a radio receiver in 1965 and picked up higher-than-expected temperatures, according to a NASA article. At first, they thought the anomaly was due to pigeons trying to roost inside the antenna and their waste, but they cleaned up the mess and killed the pigeons and the anomaly persisted.

    Simultaneously, a Princeton University team led by Robert Dicke was trying to find evidence of the CMB and realized that Penzias and Wilson had stumbled upon it with their strange observations. The two groups each published papers in the Astrophysical Journal in 1965.

    BIG BANG THEORY FAQS ANSWERED BY AN EXPERT

    We asked Jason Steffens, assistant professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, a few frequently asked questions about the Big Bang Theory. 


    Jason Steffens headshot
    Jason Steffens

    Jason Steffens is an assistant professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

    Has the Big Bang Theory been proven?

    This isn't really a statement that we can make in general. The best we can do is say that there is strong evidence for the Big Bang Theory and that every test we throw at it comes back in support of the theory. Mathematicians prove things, but scientists can only say that the evidence supports a theory with some degree of confidence that is always less than 100%.

    So, a short answer to a slightly different question is that all of the observational evidence that we've gathered is consistent with the predictions of the Big Bang Theory. The three most important observations are:

    1.  The Hubble Law shows that distant objects are receding from us at a rate proportional to their distance — which occurs when there is uniform expansion in all directions. This implies a history where everything was closer together.
    2. The properties of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB). This shows that the universe went through a transition from an ionized gas (a plasma) and a neutral gas. Such a transition implies a hot, dense early universe that cooled as it expanded. This transition happened after about 400,000 years following the Big Bang.
    3. The relative abundances of light elements (He-4, He-3, Li-7, and Deuterium). These were formed during the era of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) in the first few minutes after the Big Bang. Their abundances show that the universe was really hot and really dense in the past (as opposed to the conditions when the CMB was formed, which was just regular hot and dense — there's about a factor of a million difference in temperature between when BBN occurred and when the CMB occurred).

    Is there any occurrence that contradicts the Big Bang Theory?

    Not that I know of. There are some issues that arise with the simplest model of the Big Bang, but those can be resolved by invoking a physical process that is still consistent with the basic premise of the Big Bang Theory. Specifically, the fact that the CMB temperature is the same everywhere, that the universe does not appear to have any curvature, and that density fluctuations from quantum mechanical predictions do not produce galaxy clusters of the right size and shape today. These three issues are resolved with the theory of inflation — which is part of the broader Big Bang Theory.

    When was the Big Bang Theory established?

    Who came up with the idea?

    Hubble was really the person who set up the observations. Evidence continued to mount, especially in the 1970s with the detection of the CMB. The term "Big Bang" was first used in the late 1940s by the astronomer Fred Hoyle — eventually, it caught on in the 1970s.

    MODELLING THE BIG BANG

    Because we can't see it directly, scientists have been trying to figure out how to "see" the Big Bang through other measures. In one case, cosmologists are pressing rewind to reach the first instant after the Big Bang by simulating 4,000 versions of the current universe on a massive supercomputer. 

    "We are trying to do something like guessing a baby photo of our universe from the latest picture," study leader Masato Shirasaki, a cosmologist at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ), told our sister website Live Science

    With what is known about the universe today, the researchers in this 2021 study compared their understanding of how gravitational forces interacted in the primordial universe with their thousands of computer-modeled universes. If they could predict the starting conditions of their virtual universes, they hoped to be able to accurately predict what our own universe may have looked like back at the beginning. 

    Other researchers have chosen different paths to interrogate our universe's beginnings. 

    In a 2020 study, researchers did so by investigating the split between matter and antimatter. In the study, not yet peer-reviewed, they proposed that the imbalance in the amount of matter and antimatter in the universe is related to the universe's vast quantities of dark matter, an unknown substance that exerts influence over gravity and yet doesn't interact with light. They suggested that in the crucial moments immediately after the Big Bang, the universe may have been pushed to make more matter than its inverse, antimatter, which then could have led to the formation of dark matter.

    THE AGE OF THE UNIVERSE

    The CMB has been observed by many researchers now and with many spacecraft missions. One of the most famous space-faring missions to do so was NASA's Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite, which mapped the sky in the 1990s.

    Several other missions have followed in COBE's footsteps, such as the BOOMERanG experiment (Balloon Observations of Millimetric Extragalactic Radiation and Geophysics), NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) and the European Space Agency's Planck satellite.

    Planck's observations, first released in 2013, mapped the CMB in unprecedented detail and revealed that the universe was older than previously thought: 13.82 billion years old, rather than 13.7 billion years old. The research observatory's mission is ongoing and new maps of the CMB are released periodically.

    Related: 

    The maps give rise to new mysteries, however, such as why the Southern Hemisphere appears slightly redder (warmer) than the Northern Hemisphere. The Big Bang Theory says that the CMB would be mostly the same, no matter where you look.

    Examining the CMB also gives astronomers clues as to the composition of the universe. Researchers think most of the cosmos is made up of matter and energy that cannot be "sensed" with our conventional instruments, leading to the names "dark matter" and "dark energy." It is thought that only 5% of the universe is made up of matter such as planets, stars and galaxies.

    WHAT ARE GRAVITATIONAL WAVES?

    While astronomers study the universe's beginnings through creative measures and mathematical simulations, they've also sought proof of its rapid inflation. They have done this by observing gravitational waves, tiny perturbations in space-time that ripple outwards from great disturbances like, for instance, two colliding black holes or the universe's birth.

    According to leading theories, in the first second after the universe was born, our cosmos ballooned faster than the speed of light. (That, by the way, does not violate Albert Einstein's speed limit. He once said that light speed is the fastest anything can travel within the universe — but that statement did not apply to the inflation of the universe itself.)

    As the universe expanded, it created the CMB and a similar "background noise" made up of gravitational waves that, like the CMB, were a sort of static, detectable from all parts of the sky. Those gravitational waves, according to the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, produced a theorized barely-detectable polarization, one type of which is called "B-modes."

    In 2014, astronomers said they had found evidence of B-modes using an Antarctic telescope called "Background Imaging of Cosmic Extragalactic Polarization," or BICEP2.

    "We're very confident that the signal that we're seeing is real, and it's on the sky," lead researcher John Kovac, of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics told Space.com in March 2014.

    But by June, the same team said that their findings could have been altered by galactic dust getting in the way of their field of view. That hypothesis was supported by new results from the Planck satellite.

    By January 2015, researchers from both teams working together "confirmed that the Bicep signal was mostly, if not all, stardust," the New York Times said.

    However, since then gravitational waves have not only been confirmed to exist, they have been observed multiple times. 

    These waves, which are not B-modes from the birth of the universe but rather from more recent collisions of black hles, have been detected multiple times by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), with the first-ever gravitational wave detection taking place in 2016. 

    A major gravitational wave breakthrough was announced on June 28, 2023 when teams of scientists around the world reported the discovery of a "low-pitch hum" of these cosmic ripples flowing through the Milky Way. While astronomers don't definitively know what's causing the hum, the detected signal is "compelling evidence" and consistent with theoretical expectations of gravitational waves emerging from copious pairs of "the most massive black holes in the entire universe" weighing as much as billions of suns, said Stephen Taylor, a gravitational wave astrophysicist at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee who co-led the research.

    WAS THE BIG BANG AN EXPLOSION?

    Although the Big Bang is often described as an "explosion", that's a misleading image. In an explosion, fragments are flung out from a central point into a pre-existing space. If you were at the central point, you'd see all the fragments moving away from you at roughly the same speed. 

    But the Big Bang wasn't like that. It was an expansion of space itself – a concept that comes out of Einstein's equations of general relativity but has no counterpart in the classical physics of everyday life. It means that all the distances in the universe are stretching out at the same rate. Any two galaxies separated by distance X are receding from each other at the same speed, while a galaxy at distance 2X recedes at twice that speed.

    THE EXPANSION OF THE UNIVERSE

    The universe is not only expanding, but expanding faster. This means that with time, nobody will be able to spot other galaxies from Earth or any other vantage point within our galaxy.

    "We will see distant galaxies moving away from us, but their speed is increasing with time," Harvard University astronomer Avi Loeb said in a March 2014 Space.com article.

    "So, if you wait long enough, eventually, a distant galaxy will reach the speed of light. What that means is that even light won't be able to bridge the gap that's being opened between that galaxy and us. There's no way for extraterrestrials on that galaxy to communicate with us, to send any signals that will reach us, once their galaxy is moving faster than light relative to us."

    Some physicists also suggest that the universe we experience is just one of many. In the "multiverse" model, different universes would coexist with each other like bubbles lying side by side. The theory suggests that in that first big push of inflation, different parts of space-time grew at different rates. This could have carved off different sections — different universes — with potentially different laws of physics.

    "It's hard to build models of inflation that don't lead to a multiverse," Alan Guth, a theoretical physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said during a news conference in March 2014 concerning the gravitational waves discovery. (Guth is not affiliated with that study.)

    "It's not impossible, so I think there's still certainly research that needs to be done. But most models of inflation do lead to a multiverse, and evidence for inflation will be pushing us in the direction of taking [the idea of a] multiverse seriously."

    While we can understand how the universe we see came to be, it's possible that the Big Bang was not the first inflationary period the universe experienced. Some scientists believe we live in a cosmos that goes through regular cycles of inflation and deflation, and that we just happen to be living in one of these phases.

    JWST AND THE BIG BANG

    A telescope is almost like a time machine, allowing us to peer back into the distant past. With the aid of the Hubble space telescope, NASA has shown us galaxies as they were many billions of years ago — and Hubble's successor, the James Webb Space Telescope, has the ability to look even deeper into the past. 

    NASA hopes it will see all the way back to when the first galaxies formed, nearly 13.6 billion years ago. And unlike Hubble, which sees mainly in the visible waveband, JWST is an infrared telescope — a big advantage when looking at very distant galaxies. The expansion of the universe means that waves emitted from them are stretched out, so light that was emitted at visible wavelengths actually reaches us in the infrared.

    THE BIG BANG THEORY: BECOMING A HOUSEHOLD NAME

     Although it took a while, TV audiences have taken a liking to the geek-inspired comedy The Big Bang Theory.

    The name "Big Bang Theory" has been a popular way to talk about the concept among astrophysicists for decades, but it hit the mainstream in 2007 when a comedy T.V. show with the same name premiered on CBS. 

    Running for 279 episodes over 12 seasons, the show "The Big Bang Theory" followed the lives of a group of scientists, which included physicists, astrophysicists and aerospace engineers. The show explores the group's nerdy friendships, romances and squabbles. Its first season premiered on Sept. 24, 2007, and the show officially ended on May 16, 2019.

    Although the show itself didn't dive too much into actual science, the showrunners did hire UCLA astrophysicist David Saltzberg as a science consultant for the entire run of the show, according to Science magazine. Science consultants are often hired for sci-fi and science-related shows and movies to help keep certain aspects realistic.

    Thanks to Saltzberg, the characters' vocabulary included a host of science jargon and the whiteboards in the background of labs, offices and apartments throughout the show were filled with a variety of equations and information. 

    Over the course of the show, Saltzberg said, those whiteboards became coveted space as researchers sent him new work that they hoped might be featured there. In one episode, Saltzberg recalled, new evidence of gravitational waves was scrawled across a whiteboard that ostensibly belonged to famed physicist Steven Hawking, who also approved the text.

    The show took some liberties, as it was fictional. This included fabricating some new scientific concepts and fictionalizing the politics of Nobel prizes and academia, according to Fermilab physicist Don Lincoln.

    Notably, several characters in the series take trips. One episode sees main characters Leonard, Sheldon, Raj and Howard set out on a research expedition to the Arctic — many physics experiments are best performed at or near the extreme environments of the poles. Another put aerospace engineer Howard on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft and, later, a model of the International Space Station along with real-life astronaut Mike Massimino.

    Samantha Cristoforetti scream

    Italian Astronaut Screams In Fear In Live ISS Video Seeing Two UFOs, Said “Almost Alien”

    There are accounts of astronauts seeing unidentified flying objects (UFOs) while being in the International Space Station (ISS). Sometimes they have been spotted during the live broadcast but the space agencies ignore them, claiming space debris, dirt in the camera’s lenses, or light effect.

    However, the case of two UAPs and Samantha Cristoforetti’s scream in fear, Italy’s first female astronaut onboard the Soyuz spacecraft during docking with the International Space Station (ISS) in 2014 is still unexplainable.

    Samantha Cristoforetti was born in Milan, Italy, on April 26, 1977. Between November 2014 and June 2015, she spent 200 days in space on her Futura mission to the International Space Station as a Flight Engineer for Expeditions 42 and 43. Samantha was selected as an ESA astronaut in May 2009. She joined ESA in September 2009 and completed her basic astronaut training in November 2010. She’s completely fluent in Italian, English, German, French, and Russian.

    On November 23, 2014, the Soyuz TMA-14 spacecraft was planning to drop its Russian robot, Skybot F-850 to dock at the International Space Station. Cristoforetti was onboard Soyuz TMA-14 along with Roscosmos astronaut Anton Shkaplerov, and NASA astronaut Terry Virts at that time.

    As the spacecraft approached the ISS and docking was in process, Cristoforetti saw what appeared to be two huge, glowing orbs zooming toward each other. The orb can be seen moving from top to bottom in the center of the screen at approximately the 1:20 mark.

    What appeared on the screen, shocked Cristoforetti so much that she screamed in fear, and immediately her colleague Anton Shkaplerov can be heard saying her to calm down. The video quickly went viral and in no time, it was all over social media.

    After the noticeable excitement on the video, many were wondering what Cristoforetti actually saw that caused such a response so she took to Google+ to give an explanation for the shout. Cristoforetti explains she “wasn’t prepared in the least for what I saw when we were at about 30-40 meters [from the Space Station].”

    I had released my shoulder straps quite a bit at that point, so I was floating over my seat. As I turned to look outside, at first I looked back and saw one of our Soyuz solar panels, which I had seen before of course. Then my eyes caught something in the peripheral view.

    And as I slowly turned my gaze and when I realized what I was seeing, I was overcome by pure amazement and joy: the Space Station was there, but not just any view. The huge solar panels were flooded in a blaze of orange light, vivid, warm almost alien.

    I couldn’t help exclaiming something aloud, which you can probably hear in the recordings of our docking, since at that point we were “hot mic” with Mission Control. Anton reminded me of that and so I tried to contain my amazement and return to the docking monitoring. When I peaked again later, the orange glow was gone.

    Butch told me later that he had heard my amazement on com when “the Station had turned orange.” I didn’t know, but apparently there’s only a few seconds during day-night transition that the Station is lit by that amazing orange glow. And it happened to be exactly when I peaked outside! I feel very fortunate that I had such a unique first glimpse of our human outpost in space: such a great welcome!

    two ufos in ISS footage

    The ISS live stream spotted two anomalies in 2014 while Soyuz spacecraft docking with the International Space Station (ISS)

    In fact, former US Department of Defense UFO investigator Nick Pope stated that this was not only an unprecedented occurrence but also one of the greatest proofs of extraterrestrial life, not only in space but in our Solar System and very close to us.”

    In her Wiki, her NASA.gov profile, and interview with Financial Times there’s no mention of the scream incident. The reporter gets closest to the mystery when asking, “Did you suffer from any unexpected/unpleasant experiences while in space?” She never mentions the scream (which seems odd considering the question) but answers in the affirmative because she “didn’t fall into the 50% who suffer space sickness.” In her latest video by NASA, she mentioned no scream incident as well.

    It is unprecedented that even after everything was recorded on live footage, she never spoke about it. However, there are other outer space incidents that happened with astronauts who publicly admitted experiencing strangeness in space.

    • Former NASA astronaut Leland Melvin claimed to have seen what appeared to be an “organic, alien-like creature” in the space shuttle payload bay and even reported the sighting to ground control.
    • During his time in space, former NASA astronaut Jerry M. Linenger saw some anomalies that were not space debris. He shared his sightings in a live interview with Bild in 2018.
    • On May 5, 1981, retired Russian cosmonaut Vladimir Kovalyonok saw something remarkable from the porthole of Salyut 6. According to Kovalyonok, at around 6 p.m., when the spacecraft was flying over South Africa moving towards the Indian ocean, he saw an elliptical-shaped object that was flying along with the spacecraft.
    • Former NASA astronaut Franklin Story Musgrave said about his experience in space would shock anyone. He claimed to have seen an 8-foot-long snake, white in color, floating through space. It is hard to explain how a snake could reach space, but Musgrave has never denied it. (Click here to read the full story)

    Unveiling UFO Secrets: Men in Black, Alien Autopsy, and Global Enigmas

    UFO Secrets

    In a universe teeming with the vastness of space, the possibility of otherworldly beings has intrigued and haunted us for centuries. However, when two rational individuals came across evidence that potentially showcased an actual extraterrestrial entity, the world was spellbound.

    For Ray and the unnamed protagonist of our story, this wasn’t just another conspiracy or a quirky headline; it became the center of their lives. In the heart of Cleveland, the cameraman stumbled upon what seemed like an alien autopsy footage. This wasn’t just another vague UFO sighting or grainy photograph from an amateur. This was a meticulous recording of what looked like an actual extraterrestrial being.

    The imagery in the footage matched eerily with the worldwide reports of alien sightings. From the delicate, otherworldly features of the supposed alien to its unique biological characteristics, the footage seemed to reveal a creature straight out of millions of eyewitness accounts. But was this the ultimate proof humanity had been waiting for?

    VIDEO:

    However, the enigma didn’t end there. Stories of military leaders, astronauts, doctors, lawyers, and ordinary individuals witnessing UFOs or having encounters with extraterrestrial beings have been consistent across history. Tales of sky battles in the 16th century, UFO sightings in the 18th century, and many more weave a tapestry of mystery that blankets our past.

    As our duo delved deeper, they came across a slew of evidence pointing to an ongoing interaction between humanity and these otherworldly entities. From the alleged animal mutilations to chilling accounts of human genetic and hybrid experimentation, it felt as though humanity was but a plaything in the hands of a far more advanced civilization.

    But the most significant question that remains is, do the governments of the world already know about these beings? If they do, why the silence?

    The weight of the evidence grows heavier every day. As more people from all corners of the world continue to report strange occurrences, lights in the sky, and encounters with beings not of this world, the clamor for transparency becomes even more urgent.

    In the end, whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, the evidence is undeniable that we’re not alone. As we continue our quest for understanding, one can only hope that the truth will soon emerge from the shadows. Until then, the enigma of the alien autopsy remains one of the greatest mysteries of our time.

    Meet 'Scary Barbie,' a black hole slaughtering a star in the brightest way possible

    Astronomers have detected one of the longest, brightest and most energetic cosmic objects ever observed — and they've named it "Scary Barbie," in part due to its terrifying power.

    The remote object, an astonishingly bright flash of light that has lasted for more than two years, was discovered lurking inside an enormous data set gathered by computer-guided telescopes.

    After finding the brightly burning patch of sky in the data and cross-referencing it with observations made by other telescopes, the astronomers realized they had stumbled across one of the most powerful cosmic explosions ever witnessed. They reported their findings April 17 on the preprint server arXiv, and their paper has been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.

    Related: 

    "It's absurd. If you take a typical supernova and multiply it a thousand times, we're still not at how bright this is — and supernovas are among the most luminous objects in the sky," co-author Danny Milisavljevic, an assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Purdue University, said in a statement. "This is the most energetic phenomenon I have ever encountered."

    Scary Barbie was born from the final death throes of a star being torn to shreds by a supermassive black hole.

    Black holes feed upon unfortunate stars that cross their paths, using tidal forces exerted by their immense gravitational pulls. As the star is reeled ever closer to the black hole's maw, the gravity affecting the regions of the star closer to the black hole is far stronger than that acting on the star's farside. This disparity "spaghettifies" the star into a long, noodle-like string that gets tightly wound around the black hole layer by layer — like spaghetti around a fork. 

    This noodle of hot plasma then quickly accelerates around the black hole and spins out into an enormous jet of energy and matter, which produces a distinctive bright beam of light — known as a transient event — that optical, X-ray and radio-wave telescopes can detect.

    Because Scary Barbie's light came from a remote region of the sky — traveling around 7.7 billion years across the expanding fabric of space-time — astronomers didn't spot the event directly. Instead, by developing a machine-learning system called Recommender Engine For Intelligent Transient Tracking, the researchers combed through data from many observations before finding the extremely bright light source. By using the Lick Observatory in California and the Keck Observatory in Hawaii, the researchers were better able to characterize the light as coming from a transient event. 

    But Scary Barbie — a nickname made by appending its randomly assigned alphanumeric name, ZTF20abrbeie, with a reference to its frightening power — is weird even among other rare and extreme astronomical events. It is much brighter than any other transient event the astronomers could compare it to, and, while transient events usually last only weeks or months, Scary Barbie has already burned incandescently for more than two years, with no indication it will sputter out.

    The astronomers said further observations of Scary Barbie, possibly using the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope, could enable them to snap some high-resolution images of the incredibly rare cosmic outburst.

    "There are few things in the universe that can be so powerful, reactions that can be this long-lived," Milisavljevic said. "Discoveries like this really open our eyes to the fact that we are still uncovering mysteries and exploring wonders in the universe — things no one has ever seen before."

    Mysterious Messages from the Cosmos: The Enigma of Crop Circles

    Crop Circle Realities

    For decades, vast fields of wheat and corn have been transformed overnight into intricate designs known as crop circles. These complex patterns often appear without explanation and have intrigued scientists, paranormal enthusiasts, and skeptics alike. Do these crop circles serve as a message from extraterrestrial intelligences, or are they just elaborate hoaxes?

    Crop Circles – An Overview: 

    Crop circles, geometric patterns that emerge overnight in fields, have been a topic of intense debate and curiosity. Originating in the English countryside, these patterns have since been reported worldwide. With perfect geometry and precision, they often stretch hundreds of meters, leaving many experts baffled.

    Significance of the Date – July 14th: 

    A particularly interesting observation is the recurring appearance of intricate designs on the date of July 14th. One such design in Somerset mirrored the geometry of particles being pulled into a black hole. Could these patterns hint at interdimensional portals or methods of traversing vast cosmic distances?

    The Phenomenon of Phantom Shapes: 

    In 2017, a remarkable event occurred in Clay Hill, England. A design spanning over 70 meters appeared in a wheat field. The subsequent year, canola plants were sown in the same area. Astonishingly, the canola did not grow where the previous year’s design had been, hinting at residual energy impacting the growth. These ghostly imprints are referred to as “phantom shapes”, serving as evidence that the phenomenon is not just a simple man-made deception.

    A Touch of the Spiritual: 

    Perhaps one of the most moving accounts came from Switzerland. Following the passing of a field’s owner, a crop circle manifested nearby. The design, a circle with 12 left-leaning blades, appeared during the family’s time of grief, leading many to interpret it as a cosmic message of love and connection.

    The Message Behind Crop Circles: 

    Jaime Maussan, a renowned Mexican journalist covering extraterrestrial phenomena, believes that crop circles are a way of communicating a simple, yet profound message: “You are not alone”. He suggests that these patterns are a call to humanity to mature, acknowledge our place in the cosmos, and address the environmental crises we face.

    While the origins and meanings of crop circles remain shrouded in mystery, one thing is certain: they captivate our imagination and challenge our understanding of the world. Whether they are interstellar messages, natural phenomena, or human-made art, crop circles continue to be a subject of wonder and speculation.

    In het jaar 1908 drong een meteoriet de atmosfeer van de aarde binnen, maar in plaats van de grond te raken, ontplofte hij in de lucht. Deze buitengewone gebeurtenis vond plaats nabij de rivier Podkamennaya Tunguska en resulteerde in een wijdverbreide verwoesting. Hoewel er zich geen zichtbare krater vormde, veroorzaakte de explosie het afvlakken van ongeveer 80 miljoen bomen, waardoor een uitgestrekt bosgebied van 2.150 vierkante kilometer (830 vierkante mijl) werd aangetast. Bekende bronnen die informatie verstrekken over dit incident zijn onder meer NASA, de National Park Service, Smithsonian Magazine, Geopark Ries en EarthSky.

    Milky Way is Embedded in Tilted Dark Matter Halo, Research Suggests

    The outer disk of our Milky Way Galaxy is warped and flared. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain these phenomena, but none have reproduced both features. Recent work has demonstrated that the Milky Way’s stellar halo is tilted with respect to the disk plane, suggesting that at least some component of the dark matter halo may also be tilted. In a new modeling study, astronomers from the Harvard and Smithsonian’s Center for Astrophysics show that a dark halo tilted in the same direction as the stellar halo can induce a warp and flare in the Milky Way’s disk at the same amplitude and orientation as the data. The work bolsters current thinking about how our Galaxy evolved and may offer clues into some of the mysteries of dark matter.

    From a great distance, our Milky Way Galaxy would look like a thin disk of stars that orbits once every few hundred million years around its central region, where hundreds of billions of stars provide the gravitational ‘glue’ to hold it all together. But this pull of gravity is much weaker in the Galaxy’s far outer disk. There, the hydrogen atoms making up most of the Milky Way’s gas disk are no longer confined to a thin plane, instead they give the disk an S-like, or warped, appearance. Image credit: Xiaodian Chen.

    The Milky Way Galaxy is located inside a diffuse cloud called the stellar halo, which extends much farther out into the Universe.

    In a previous work, Jiwon Jesse Han and colleagues deduced that the stellar halo is tilted and elliptical in shape, like a zeppelin or football.

    Building on that, they assumed the same shape for the dark matter halo, the larger entity that encompasses everything in and around the Milky Way.

    Dark matter makes up 80% of the Galaxy’s mass but is invisible because it doesn’t interact with light, so the shape of that halo must be inferred.

    Using models to calculate the orbits of stars within a tilted, oblong dark matter halo, the astronomers found a near-perfect match to existing observations of a warped, flared galaxy.

    “A tilted dark halo is actually fairly common in simulations, but no one had explored its effect on the Milky Way,” said Dr. Charlie Conroy, co-author of the study.

    “It turns out that the tilt is an elegant way to explain both the magnitude and direction of our Galaxy’s wobbly disk.”

    Astronomers had long surmised that the Milky Way formed due to a galactic collision; the new work further underscores that hypothesis.

    “If the Galaxy was just evolving on its own, it would have had this nice, spherical halo, this nice, flat disk,” Han said.

    “So the fact that the halo is tilted and has a football-like shape suggests that our Galaxy experienced a merger event, where two galaxies collide.”

    Their calculation of the dark matter halo’s probable shape may also provide clues as to the properties and particle nature of dark matter itself, which remain unsolved mysteries in physics.

    “The fact that the Galaxy is not spherical in our data implies that there is some limit to which dark matter can interact with itself,” Han said.

    “Confidence in these findings might lead to better ways to cleverly study the unobservable dark matter that makes up most of the Universe.”

    “This includes new ways to pick up on kinematic signatures of dark sub-halos, which are miniature dark matter halos zipping around the Galaxy.”

    paper on the findings was published in the journal Nature Astronomy.

    r/StrangeEarth - US Congressman Mike Gallagher says UFOs could potentially be machines of hidden Ancient Earth civilization & now started to show up. It was also supported by Harvard scientist Avi Loeb who said UFOs could be early civilizations of Earth & Mars both.

    U.S. Congressman Says UFOs May Be Machines of a Hidden ‘Ancient Earth Civilization’

    For over 90 years, the UFO enigma has captivated people’s minds worldwide, sparking curiosity, debates, and countless investigations into the phenomenon. The wait is over, as David Grusch, David Fravor & Ryan Graves are set to testify before the US Congress during the congressional meetings scheduled for July 26, 2023.

    Meanwhile, various theories were postulated by United States Representative Mike Gallagher on the possible origin of UFOs while he appeared on Pat McAfee’s show on June 27, 2023. The former Marine suggested that unidentified flying objects (UFOs) might possibly represent an enigmatic “ancient civilization” that had remained hidden on Earth until recently when they began to surface.

    “This should be an opportunity for the government to be transparent,” he said. “If we have information that disconfirms the extraterrestrial hypothesis, or all these other ones, at least it shows the government doing something competent and being forward-leaning by declassifying information to the public.”

    Rep. Gallagher made this statement in response to the wild interview of David Grusch with Ross Coutlhart that hit the media. Mr. Grusch, who is confirmed to testify before Congress in the upcoming hearings, claimed that the US government has proof of alien life and that there are spacecraft from another species. He mentions that there is a significant number of these spacecraft, some of which have landed while others have crashed.

    When asked about the duration of the cover-up, Grusch mentions that the first recovery of a UAP occurred in 1933 in Magenta, Italy, during the regime of Benito Mussolini. He explains that the Italian government moved the recovered craft to a secure air base until 1944-1945 when the Vatican informed the Americans about it.

    Appearing on the sports talk show, Gallagher suggested that one possible explanation of supposed UFO sightings was the so-called “Terminator” theory — derived from the film of the same name — that aliens were actually human beings from the future. Gallagher further put forth another theory, suggesting the following: “Instead of us from the future, it might indeed be an ancient civilization that has been lurking here, and suddenly it’s making its presence known.” Ancient Aliens, does it ring a bell?

    A similar theory was also proposed by Tim Peake, one of Britain’s famous astronauts. He said that the UFOs filmed by the US military over 100 times could either time traveling humans or aliens from other civilizations. During an interview with Good Morning Britain in June 2022, Briton astronaut Tim Peake, who spent more than six months on the International Space Station, was asked about the UAP videos, which the Pentagon recently declassified.

    Peake said: “I heard one theory where a pilot was talking about that potentially in the future, they’ve developed time travel – is it something that’s come back from the future?” He did not exactly say what the UFOs are but shared some theories that have long been discussed by UFOlogists.

    “I don’t think it’s a development of any state nation or non-state organization at all. I think it’s quite remarkable when you see the video footage. It does seem extraordinary as to what these machines are capable of.”

    There is a huge buried UFO hidden outside the US, and Ross Coulthart claimed that he knows the location of this immovable craft. There is no confirmation from Coulthart about the nature of this craft if it was retrieved. However, some have speculated this could be an archeological dig. Could this particular craft potentially be a remnant of a bygone civilization?

    Considering Rep. Gallagher’s theory, scientists have explored the possibility of detecting ancient civilizations in Earth’s geological record. A recent paper called “The Silurian Hypothesis” discusses how traces of industrial civilizations could be found. While fossils and artifacts are unlikely to survive over millions of years, anomalous changes in chemical compositions could serve as clues. By studying geological anomalies and applying models to other planets, scientists hope to understand if civilizations existed in the distant past.

    NASA has spent many years seeking the truth regarding extraterrestrial life. Furthermore, the space agency has never denied the existence of non-human life beyond Earth in any form. This is sufficient to discuss the idea of non-human life existing beyond Earth in any form, from the microscopic to the macroscopic. Avi Loeb, a professor at Harvard, has supported the idea that there may have been earlier civilizations on both Earth and Mars, and that these civilizations may have been the origin of UAPs. (Click here to read the full article)

    Mr. Loeb writes: “Planets like Mars or Earth could have given multiple births to technological civilizations that were a billion years apart and hence were not aware of each other. Like stable parents, the planets recovered from the environmental impact of these civilizations over time. We may have been separated in time from siblings that we never had the opportunity to meet and so we are unaware of their existence.”

    Former Pentagon UFO official, Lue Elizondo, shared intriguing insights in an interview about crash retrievals and materials related to UFOs/UAPs. He believes the US government possesses exotic materials but lacks transparency on the matter. (Click here to read the full article)

    Elizondo used an analogy of finding an out-of-place object in King Tut’s tomb to emphasize the significance of finding advanced materials before our known technology existed. Some interpreted this analogy as a hint that UFOs could be considered archaeological findings, possibly ancient rather than just old.

    Interestingly, Bob Lazar, on the Joe Rogan Experience, mentioned hearing that at least one recovered UFO was found during an archaeological dig, suggesting its ancient origin. Astronomer Avi Loeb suggested that some advanced devices made by early inhabitants of Mars and Earth might still be operational elsewhere in the Solar System, potentially accounting for some Unidentified Aerial Phenomena reports.

    Physicist John E. Brandenburg’s 2015 study speculated about a massive thermonuclear explosion that destroyed Mars’ once-Earthlike atmosphere, considering the Cydonian Hypothesis and Fermi’s Paradox. These ideas explore the possibility of ancient advanced civilizations in our solar system.

    Ross Coulthart on Huge buried alien spacecraft

    Journalist Reveals Clues to Location of Huge Buried Alien Spacecraft: It can be Stormed like Area 51

    In the past 90 years, UFO sightings have been reported countless times. However, it was only since 2017 that the world began to take the UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) seriously. From dismissing UFOs as hoaxes to conducting UAP hearings, many things have changed regarding this subject. The United States and other world governments have started treating this matter seriously, and NASA has even established a division to study these phenomena. Interestingly, there is a massive UFO buried on Earth, hidden from the public eye.

    Before the 2023 Congressional UAP hearings, on the Jay Anderson show “Project Unity,” award-winning investigative journalist Ross Coulthart dropped a bomb. He revealed that there exists a huge UFO in the possession of the United States that cannot be moved, and he knows the location of the craft. Ross mentioned the existence of non-human intelligence engaging with Earth for a long time and the recovery of certain objects, but he could not disclose specific details due to concerns about revealing advanced technologies.

    In the interview, Coulthart discussed the potential implications of the new US Senate intelligence bill. He mentions Douglas Dean Johnson’s writings about the bill, which apparently requires holders of non-earth origin or exotic UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) material to make it available to the All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) within six months.

    Anderson raises a concern that this six-month window could give those holding such materials enough time to hide or conceal them. Ross acknowledged the possibility but suggested that some of the UAP materials could be so large that they cannot be easily moved. He mentions the existence of a building constructed over such a massive object in a foreign country, which may sound preposterous to some.

    Okay, people are going to question what I’m about to say. What if some of that [__] is so big it can’t be moved?. [They are] so big they built a building over it in a country outside of the United States of America. I know that sounds preposterous, and I know, oh my God, you can just hear them now, the bleeding debunkers. Let’s see this investigated. Let’s just see what happens. Let’s test these allegations before Congress,” Ross said.

    He highlighted the importance of conshttps://www.howandwhys.com/idering the implications if some of the claims, such as those made by David Grush, turn out to be true. He specifically mentions the idea that certain objects might be too large to be moved, which Anderson finds astonishing. Coulthart revealed to Anderson that he shared this information for the first time in the interview.

    Further, at the end of his interview, Coulthart claims that he knows the exact location of this gigantic UFO. He is sure that this information would come out one day.

    “It’s really interesting because it’s absolutely gobsmacking that it’s being kept as a secret. Imagine having an object that’s so big, it’s just not conceivable to move it. I thought it was bollocks when I heard it too, and most people listening to this will, anyway. But yeah, I mean, again, just an allegation, but one that I’m, you know, assured should be taken seriously and hopefully will be investigated by Congress. Because, again, where did the money come from? What’s that money accounted for? The continued security and control of such an object for many decades. Who’s paid for that? What programs have paid for that? Has that been disclosed to taxpayers? This is gonna be a really fun inquiry if Congress starts doing its…”

    In a recent episode of “The UFO Podcast,” host Andy engaged in a thought-provoking conversation with Ross. The discussion centered around the secrecy surrounding UFO sightings and government knowledge. Ross, who has deep insights into the matter, shared his perspective on why certain details remain undisclosed.

    Andy began by addressing a critical question that’s been on the minds of many UFO enthusiasts: the location of the mysterious craft. He asked Ross whether he could reveal where the craft was being held.

    Ross responded: “Let me tell you, I can’t tell you the country it’s in; it’s not America. But what I can tell you is that the place where it is kept is used for another purpose that is a laudatory purpose that’s as much in your interests in your country in the UK as it is in mine in Australia and as it is in America. The simple reasons are that there are other uses for the place where this object is stored, and we could end up with a storm Area 51 type scenario if you came out and announced it.”

    Ross went on to explain the potential consequences of revealing such information, including international incidents and threats to the safety of personnel at the facilities. He also emphasized the importance of protecting sources, drawing on his experience as a journalist dealing with sensitive intelligence:

    Ross Coulthart: “I don’t want the personnel in those facilities to be hurt, and it could create an international incident. I mean, it’s up to the US to make a judgment about it. So many people privately know what’s going on. What’s going on is pretty bloody horrifying and confronting and outrageous. I know the White House knows about it.”

    Ross further says “I’ve been in situations where I’ve known the identities of active intelligence operatives in countries overseas, and I’ve realized, Christ, if I published this, I could jeopardize their lives. There is an element of source protection as well.”

    He expressed a wish for more significant leadership and transparency from the US government. “I wish somebody in the US intelligence community would show leadership and develop a spine and go to the White House National Security adviser and say, ‘Mr. Sullivan, for God’s sake, let us put out some kind of a statement because we really are at that state at the moment.'”

    Read also:

    Ross believes that the evidence regarding non-human intelligence engaging with the planet is undeniable and should be shared with the public. “I think they should say that we are aware of a non-human intelligence engaging with this planet, and the reason I say that they should say that is because I know the evidence is incontrovertible.”

    This revelation left the UFO community curious about the place where the craft might be situated. Interestingly, the late former CIA pilot John Lear previously mentioned the existence of buried crafts too massive to move. In 2018, Lear posted on Facebook, recounting the enigmatic tale of a massive buried UFO near Garrison, Utah. This peculiar incident became a topic of discussion at a UFO conference in Las Vegas, piquing Lear’s curiosity. (Click here to read the full article)

    Lear even provided the coordinates of the location: Latitude 38 degrees 37 minutes 40 seconds North, Longitude 113 degrees 40 minutes 40 seconds West. This further deepens the mystery, leaving people intrigued about the truth surrounding the buried UFO near Garrison, Utah.

    Moreover, there is alleged John Lear’s statement on the alien presence, posted to Paranet on December 29, 1987. Here are the paragraphs published by UFOmind.com discussing the buried craft: [this page was first archived on January 31, 1997]

    “Moore is also in possession of more Aquarius documents a few pages of which leaked out several years ago and detailed the supersecret NSA project which had been denied by them until just recently. In a letter to Senator John Glenn NSA’s Director of Policy Julia B. Wetzel wrote, “Apparently there is or was an Air Force project by that name Aquarius) which dealt with UFO’s. Coincidentally, there is also an NSA project by that name.”

    NSA’s project Aquarius deals specifically with the ‘communications with aliens’ (the EBE’s). Within the Aquarius program was project ‘Snowbird’ a project to test fly A recovered alien aircraft at Groom Lake, Nevada. This project continues today at that location. In the words of an individual who works at Groom Lake ‘our people are much better at taking things apart than they are at putting them back together’. Another saw a saucer being trucked into the Nevada Test Site in March of 1988. Still another informant witnessed a saucer being buried at that location (for God knows whatever reason) during the second week of August 1988.”

    There is another version of this statement: (Source)

    “Germany may have recovered a flying saucer as early as 1939. General James H. Doolittle went to Sweden in 1946 to inspect a flying saucer that had crashed there in Spitzbergen…

    In July of 1952, a panicked government watched helplessly as squadron of “flying saucers” flew over Washington, D.C., and buzzed the White House, the Capitol Building, and the Pentagon. It took all the imagination and intimidation the government could muster to force that incident out of the memory of the public.

    Thousands of sightings occurred during the Korean war and several more saucers were retrieved by the Air Force. Some were stored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, some were stored at Air Force bases near the location of the crash sight.

    One saucer was so enormous and the logistic problems in transportation so enormous that it was buried at the crash sight and remains there today. The stories are legendary on transporting crashed saucers over long distances, moving only at night, purchasing complete farms, slashing through forests, blocking major highways, sometimes driving 2 and 3 lo-boys in tandem with an extraterrestrial load a hundred feet in diameter.”

    On Neil Mitchel’s radio show in Australia, Ross offered valuable insights into the evolving landscape of UAP disclosures. He speculated about the possibility of the UFO truth becoming public knowledge in the near future, suggesting that within 12 to 18 months, the world might have a clearer understanding of the mysterious phenomenon of UAPs and UFOs. “I think that the world will probably know publicly within, I suspect, 12 to 18 months,” he said.

    Now, Andy asked Ross to expand on how we might transition from the current state of awaiting legislation to a potential acknowledgment within the specified timeframe. Ross emphasized that his optimism about a forthcoming disclosure was contingent on key legislative actions. He explained that if the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and the Intelligence Act passed with UAP reforms that mandated informing Congress about any Legacy UAP program, it could open the door to greater transparency. He continued to say, “I’m very optimistic that by the end of next year or the year following, early in the year following, we’ll have an idea of what’s been going on, and that’s because essentially Congress is mandating that this happen.”

    However, Ross expressed a concern regarding Congress’s commitment to informing the public, noting that leaks could occur even if Congress decided not to disclose information. He stated, “I’m amazed Congress hasn’t leaked already, frankly because I know what’s been said to very important intelligence committees both in the house and in the Senate.”

    Ross highlighted the significance of former senior public officials coming forward to share their knowledge and insights in the next 12 months. He expected that more of these individuals would break their silence. He also raised questions about the possibility of future hearings involving the Intelligence Community Inspector General, Thomas Monheim, and his investigation into David Grush’s claims.

    NASA’s Psyche Mission Launches to a Metal-Rich Rock in the Asteroid Belt

    The mission lifted off via a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.

    This morning, a new NASA mission launched toward one of the Solar System’s strangest residents.

    Asteroid 16 Psyche is a metal-rich object that may be a remnant of an ancient collision that rendered the heart of a now-dead planet bare. Or, it signals that the Solar System used to be more peculiar than once thought, with Psyche having grown out from a particularly metal-rich pocket. Astronomers don’t know much about this oddity in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, a distance about three times farther than Earth is from the Sun.

    After a delay last week due to weather conditions, NASA’s Psyche spacecraft set sail toward the metal-rich asteroid. The mission launched on Friday at 10:19 a.m. Eastern time from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.

    Its next major maneuver is to unfurl its cross-shaped solar panels. This takes place an hour after launch, and each wing will take a little more than seven minutes to deploy and latch into place. When they are fully deployed, the spacecraft will reach the size of a singles tennis court.

    WHERE IS THE SPACECRAFT GOING?

    Then, the spacecraft settles into its six-year journey to asteroid Psyche. The asteroid's distance from the Sun is about 235 million to 309 million miles, But the probe will travel 2.5 billion miles through the Solar System to reach it, cruising in an ever-expanding spiral and hopscotching on Mars’ gravity to speed up and set its trajectory.

    When the spacecraft finally enters orbit around asteroid Psyche, the trio of instruments onboard will collect data from various altitudes, ranging from 400 miles and getting up-close to just around 47 miles above the asteroid’s surface, which Nicky Fox, associate administrator for NASA’s science directorate, called “freaking cool!”

    WHY IS NASA STUDYING ASTEROIDS LIKE PSYCHE?

    Psyche is one of several active asteroid-centric missions at NASA. The space agency witnessed the descent of samples from asteroid Bennu on September 24, the first time it had attained such a dusty prize.

    The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft, which plucked this material, is now sailing towards Apophis, an intriguing asteroid that will fly near Earth in 2029. Another NASA mission called Lucy is flying through the Solar System towards a mysterious population of asteroids near Jupiter. Before it reaches its first of these so-called Trojan asteroids, it will visit asteroid Dinkinesh on November 1, 2023.

    Studying these pieces of space rock helps scientists better understand the origins of the universe and what occurred as planets were forming. The asteroid Psyche is even more intriguing. Preliminary research suggests that it could be dense, and be abundant in iron. Scientists will have a better understanding of Psyche and what it could mean once they get a closer look. Unfortunately, they’ll have to wait until 2029.

    The Intriguing Tales of Bob Lazar: Area 51’s Most Controversial Whistleblower

    bob-lazar

    In the realm of UFO enthusiasts and conspiracy theorists, few names shine as brightly as Bob Lazar. As the man who famously blew the whistle on Area 51 and the U.S. government’s alleged extraterrestrial projects, Lazar’s tale is a gripping mix of suspense, revelation, and controversy.

    Las Vegas, 1989: Most of the world knew little about Area 51, a top-secret military installation buried deep in the Nevada desert. But on May 15th, an investigative report on local TV station KLAS would change that forever. An anonymous figure, only identified as “Dennis”, was interviewed. Veiled in shadows, “Dennis” made startling claims: he had been employed at Area 51 and had witnessed nine extraterrestrial flying discs. This, he declared, was technology far beyond our current understanding.

    The claims might have vanished into the abyss of conspiracy theories, except for one detail: “Dennis” was soon revealed to be Bob Lazar. By unveiling his identity, Lazar effectively put himself in the crosshairs. He believed this was his safety net – by publicizing his knowledge, he felt he would be less likely to vanish mysteriously. And as he would later share, his life had already been threatened, his home invaded, and menacing messages left for him.

    Over the years, Lazar’s revelations have continued to captivate. He described alien reactors, machines that, if understood, could revolutionize our world, reshaping everything from transport to the economy. Imagine a world without the need for fuel, where travel is not bound by our current limitations. It’s a utopia that, according to Lazar, could become a reality if the secrets of Area 51 are fully unveiled.

    Yet, after his explosive allegations, Lazar stepped back from the limelight, preferring a life out of the public gaze. However, the allure of his narrative never truly faded. In 2018, filmmaker Jeremy Corbell brought Lazar’s story back into focus with the documentary “Bob Lazar: Area 51, and Flying Saucers.” In it, Lazar reiterated his claims, asserting that in the late 1980s, the U.S. government had, indeed, recovered multiple alien spacecrafts, studying them secretly in the desert.

    But, as with all such tales, there are skeptics. The U.S. government has consistently denied Lazar’s allegations, and some critics argue inconsistencies in his narrative. Yet, whether one believes Lazar’s tales or not, his influence is undeniable. Thanks to him, Area 51 is now synonymous with extraterrestrial mysteries, and his story continues to inspire debates, research, and the quest for the truth about our universe.

    The ESA's Gaia observatory expanded its targets to include the tightly-packed center of Omega Centauri, an ancient globular cluster.

    A Huge New Gaia Data Release: More Stars, Gravitational Lenses and Asteroids

    The ESA’s Gaia mission is releasing a new tranche of astronomical data. The mission has released three regular, massive hauls of data since it launched in 2013, named Gaia DR1, DR2, and DR3. The ESA is calling this one a ‘focused product release,’ and while it’s smaller than the previous three releases, it’s still impactful.

    The Gaia mission can fly under the radar for most of us. It doesn’t generate gorgeous images that work their way through the internet like the James Webb Space Telescope or the Hubble. Instead, it makes a muscular contribution in the form of foundational, raw data that affects a wide array of issues in astronomy and astrophysics.

    Gaia’s mission is simple: it measures the motions, distances, and positions of a billion stars with extreme precision, known collectively as astrometry. Along the way, it also measures the positions of some exoplanets. Its goal is to paint our most detailed picture of the Milky Way yet and to reveal new perspectives on our place in the Universe.

    In this new targeted release, Gaia covered up some gaps in its previous coverage, including regions where stars are tightly packed together. Gaia does its work by examining individual stars. But in this release, it turned its attention to other things, including globular clusters.

    “We’ve dployed this amazing cosmic tool at maximum power.”

    Alexey Mints, Gaia Collaboration Member

    Globular clusters (GCs) are ancient, spheroidal groups of stars bound together by gravity. They can contain millions of stars and are found in galaxies, including our own. Omega Centauri was the first GC humanity knew about, though in antiquity, we thought it was a single star. It’s 17,000 light years away and has about 10 million member stars.

    The ESA decided to put Gaia to work on Omega Centauri, also called NGC 5139.

    Omega Centauri is regarded as a typical GC, and it’s also the most massive one in the Milky Way. To study it, the ESA used a testing and calibration mode on the observatory that wasn’t designed for science. “We didn’t expect to ever use it for science, which makes this result even more exciting,” said Katja Weingrill of the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics in Potsdam, Germany. Weingrill is also a member of the Gaia collaboration and the lead author of one of several papers presenting the new results.

    The observing mode differs because it doesn’t focus on individual stars. Instead, it mapped a wide patch of sky that included Omega Centauri. The observatory added over half a million new stars it hadn’t seen before.

    “In?Omega?Centauri,?we?discovered?over?half?a?million?new?stars?Gaia hadn’t?seen?before?– from?just?one?cluster!” said Weingrill.

    It turns out that Gaia’s engineering mode can make a contribution that the observatory’s regular observing mode can’t. The stars in Omega Centauri’s center are so tightly packed that they’re difficult to distinguish. But not in engineering mode.

    “It’s not just patching up holes in our mapping, although this is valuable in itself,” added co-author and Gaia Collaboration member Alexey Mints, also of the AIP. “Our data allowed us to detect stars that are too close together to be properly measured in Gaia’s regular pipeline. With the new data, we can study the cluster’s structure, how the constituent stars are distributed, how they’re moving, and more, creating a complete large-scale map of Omega Centauri. It’s using Gaia to its full potential – we’ve deployed this amazing cosmic tool at maximum power.”

    Omega Centauri is ancient. Its stars are between 10 and 12 billion years old. GC’s role in the evolution of galaxies is unclear, as are their origins. They may be remnants of galaxy mergers, but scientists aren’t certain. This robust new data from Gaia may help answer our questions about GCs as it has with other issues in astronomy.Gaia is going to use its engineering mode to explore eight more regions similar to Omega Centauri. Those results will be included in the upcoming DR4, due sometime after 2025.

    The splendid Omega Centauri isn’t the only target in Gaia’s new release. Though it was never intended to study cosmology, the observatory looked deep into the Universe and found gravitational lenses. Gravitational lenses are extraordinarily massive objects like galaxy clusters. Their mass bends and magnifies the light, and when they’re between us and an object even more distant than the lens, we can see the distant object of interest.

    Gravitational lenses allow astronomers to see extremely distant objects as long as everything lines up right. Einstein’s theory of general relativity predicted their existence, and now they’re one more tool in astronomers’ toolboxes. They bring objects that are ordinarily too distant to observe within range. Distant, puzzling quasars are one of the objects that gravitational lenses bring into view.

    Gaia found almost 400 candidate quasars and 50 that are almost certainly quasars.

    “Gaia is a real lens-seeker,” said Christine Ducourant?of Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Bordeaux, France, and a member of the Gaia collaboration. “Thanks to Gaia, we’ve found that some of the objects we see aren’t simply stars, even though they look like them. They’re actually really distant lensed quasars – extremely bright, energetic galactic cores powered by black holes. We now present 381 solid candidates for lensed quasars, including 50 that we deem highly likely: a goldmine for cosmologists and the largest set of candidates ever released at once.”

    Gaia also uncovered five quasars that are quadruply-lensed. These are extremely rare and play an important role in understanding dark matter halos, regions of dark matter uncoupled from the Universe’s expansion.

    Lensed quasars are difficult to see. Their images can clump together and become indistinct. They’re challenging to search for, but not for Gaia.

    “The great thing about Gaia is that it looks everywhere, so we can find lenses without needing to know where to look,” said Laurent Galluccio of Université Côte d’Azur, France, and member of the Gaia collaboration. “With this data release, Gaia is the first mission to achieve an all-sky survey of gravitational lenses at high resolution.”

    The elegant thing about space observatories like Gaia is how their results fuel the efforts of other telescopes and observatories. Just as the Hubble Telescope helped pave the way for the JWST, Gaia is helping pave the way for another ESA mission, Euclid. Euclid launched in July 2023 with a cosmological survey mission. Its job is to make a 3D map of the Universe based on billions of galaxies. It’s like Gaia, but it’ll map galaxies instead of stars. Gaia’s lensed quasars can help Euclid’s observations.

    Several new research papers present Gaia’s new results, and they focus on things like asteroids and variable stars.

    Gaia’s DR3 from June 2022 contained 150,000 asteroids. The new focused release provides more information on these asteroids by watching them for a longer period of time. These extended observations produced more detailed orbits for the asteroids that are 20 times as precise.

    A more precise understanding of asteroid orbits is valuable for different reasons. One is that we don’t want one to hit us, and interdiction depends on accurate orbital data. But asteroids are also fascinating objects of scientific study that can tell us a lot about how the Solar System formed. Improved orbits could lead to more missions to asteroids to study them and even sample them. Astronomers can only calculate potential positions for many asteroids, and Gaia’s new data increases accuracy by reducing the number of potential positions.

    The final subject in Gaia’s focused release is variable stars. Their brightness fluctuates in two ways. Either it’s due to something external, like a cloud of dust passing in front of the star, or something internal to the star, like swelling or shrinking. The two types of variables are called extrinsic and intrinsic variables. Variable stars are important to astrophysics because they can give us information about stellar properties like mass, radius, luminosity, temperature, internal and external structure, composition, and evolution. We don’t have any other way to acquire some of this information except from the study of variable stars.

    In its new focused data release, Gaia delivered data on 10,000 variable stars. Variable stars are also key tools in determining cosmic distances, so having better data on such a massive number of variable stars will eventually help lead to a better understanding of the cosmic ladder.

    Each symbol on this skymap indicates the position of one of the sources in Gaia's data. Each one is colour-coded according to the type of variable star. Red are long-period variables (LPVs) whose variability is driven by the star pulsating. Green dots are so-called 'long secondary period' stars (LSPs), whose cause of variability is still debated but believed to be linked to a cloud of dust orbiting the star. Blue symbols are ellipsoidal variables: red giants that are part of a binary system with a dense, compact object distorted into an egg-like shape due to its companion's powerful gravitational pull. Image Credit: ESA/Gaia/DPAC, CC BY-SA 3.0 IGO.

    “The mission is providing a truly unique insight into the Universe and the objects within it.”
    Timo Prusti, Gaia Project Scientist.

    “This data release further demonstrates Gaia’s broad and fundamental value – even on topics it wasn’t initially designed to address,” said Timo Prusti, Project Scientist for Gaia at ESA.

    Gaia is a star surveyor at heart, and it excels at it. But this focused data release shows that it’s capable of an even larger contribution. “Although its key focus is as a star surveyor, Gaia is exploring everything from the rocky bodies of the Solar System to multiply imaged quasars lying billions of light-years away, far beyond the edges of the Milky Way,” said Prusti. “The mission is providing a truly unique insight into the Universe and the objects within it, and we’re really making the most of its broad, all-sky perspective on the skies around us.”

    Gaia can get lost in the deluge of headlines from telescopes like the James Webb and the Hubble and even from installations as arcane as neutrino observatories. But it keeps chugging along, and instead of generating headlines, it generates bedrock knowledge that feeds into all sorts of research. It’s becoming increasingly rare to encounter published research in astronomy and astrophysics that doesn’t rely, even in some small way, on Gaia’s foundational data.

    It’s nice to see Gaia be the star of the show, even if it’s only for a short time.

    Is There a UFO in That Renaissance Painting? See 7 Historical Artworks That (Possibly) Depict Close Encounters With the Third Kind

    Do you want to believe?

    Talk of UFOs—sorry, “unidentified aerial phenomena”—spilled into yet another U.S. congressional hearing in July. The session followed a run of announcements and studies by the likes of NASA and the RAND Corporation regarding UAP sightings, turning what once was a fringe science and conspiracy theory into a matter of national interest and security. 

    This new spate of interest in extraterrestrials is but the latest chapter in ufology, a field with roots in the late 19th century. But if certain E.T. proponents are to be believed, this fascination with the existence of aliens stretches back further in history. Their evidence? Cave paintings, Nazca lines, prehistoric sculptures, and—for our purposes—art-historical paintings. 

    That some old masters depicted encounters with the third kind might be plainly in view for anyone looking closely (very closely) to a few of their works. Squint or stare and you might spot curious aerial phenomena, bizarre beings, or other unexplainable artifacts. Are they signs of an extraterrestrial presence or merely symbols of religious rapture? Is there a difference? Who knows?

    Below, we’ve arrayed seven of these historical artworks that contain unidentified objects, so you can make like Congress and be the judge. 

    1. Masolino da Panicale - The Miracle of the Snow (c. 1428–32)

    The Florentine painter created this altarpiece to commemorate the founding of Roman basilica Santa Maria MaggioreLegend has it that the church’s site was chosen by the Virgin Mary herself, who caused snow to fall on that exact spot on the Esquiline Hill in the summer of 352—a scenrendered in Da Panicale’s panel. To some eyes, however, Da Panicale’s depiction of lenticular clouds looks akin to a fleet of alien spaceships, overseen by Jesus and Mary. Could the so-called miracle of the snow be an allegory for an invasion of flying saucers? It’s worth noting that even in the colder seasons, snow is rare in Rome. But then again, so are UFOs… presumably.

    2. Jacques Legrand - Livre des Bonnes Meurs (c. 1430)

    Jacques Legrand, Livre des Bonnes Meurs (c. 1430), folio 129v.

    Contemporary interest in the pages of the illuminated manuscript Livre des Bonnes Meurs has less to do with its content, which teaches good manners to folks from clerics to commoners, but a striking image on folio 129 verso. In rich tones, it depicts the goddess of luck Fortuna beside her wheel, surrounded by a group of male petitioners, with a decorated gold sphere hovering bizarrely in the sky above them. Could it be the sun, a hot-air balloon, or another representation of the wheel of fortune? No one has figured it out, but you bet the ufologists have.

    3. Domenico Ghirlandaio - The Madonna with Saint Giovannino (c. 15th century)

    Domenico Ghirlandaio, The Madonna with Saint Giovannino (c. 15th century).

    The reputation of this 15th-century painting, installed at the Palazzo Vecchio, is such that it is colloquially referred to as “Madonna dell’UFO.” While portraying the Madonna with the infant Jesus and Saint John, Ghirlandaio (the work has also been attributed to Jacopo del Sellaio and Sebastiano Mainardi) chose to paint an odd blob in the sky to the right of Mary’s shoulder, with the figures of a man and a dog looking on. There’s even speculation that Mary has positioned herself to shield the children, who, it seems, might not be the only celestial beings in frame. 

    4. Michael Pacher - Saint Augustine and the Devil (c. 1475)

    Pacher’s oil illustrates a simple legend: the devil showing Augustine his entry in the book of vices (the saint only has the one recorded sin of not praying hard enough, of course). Or does it? Depending on who’s viewing it, the Gothic painter’s grotesque demon, complete with green skin and red eyes on its rear-end, is less mythical and more extraterrestrial. Which turns the painting’s depiction into less a meeting of good and evil, and more artistic proof that we’re not alone. 

    5. Carlo Crivelli - The Annunciation with Saint Emidius (1486)

    Carlo Crivelli, The Annunciation with Saint Emidius (1486).

    Crivelli’s luxuriously detailed work offers his artistic interpretation of the annunciation, the archangel Gabriel’s announcement to Mary that she will soon bear the Christian messiah. Except that Mary looks to be receiving the announcement from an extraterrestrial vehicle, its message beaming down laser-like to reach her. It’s the kind of light, so say proponents, consistent with those reported in modern-day alien abductions, presenting fodder for the theory that Mary was, well, abducted and artificially inseminated by aliens. 

    6. Hans Glaser - Celestial Phenomenon Over Nuremburg (1561)

    Hans Glaser, Celestial Phenomenon Over Nuremburg broadsheet with woodcut (1561).

    In 1561, Glaser, a Nuremberg artist and publisher, produced a broadsheet to report on a “dreadful apparition” that occurred just above the city on April 14. Accompanying his account of an aerial battle between objects shaped like globes and crosses was his illustrative, almost buoyant woodcut depicting the multi-colored UAPs (to those of you who are new to ufology, that is short for unidentified anomalous phenomena) swirling across the sun. While skeptics today reckon the phenomenon was down to parhelia, an atmospheric optical occurrence, or perhaps an early use of fireworks, Glaser deemed it—what else?—a “high sign” from God.

    7.  Aert de Gelder - Baptism of Christ (c. 1710)

    Aert de Gelder, The Baptism of Christ (c. 1710).

    De Gelder was one of Rembrandt’s last pupils and his paintings of Biblical scenes bear the Dutch Master’s heightened emotionalism. His circa 1710 work captures the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist at the River of Jordan, spotlit by beams from a huge disc in the sky. It’s ostensibly a representation of “the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on [Jesus],” according to Matthew 3:16. Or could it be de Gelder was trying to tell us something about the audience at Jesus’s baptism?

    Seismic Activity in Crust of Neutron Stars Could Explain Repeating Fast Radio Bursts

    Fast radio bursts are extragalactic transient phenomena that shine in radio wavelengths for short durations lasting only 1-10 milliseconds. Some sources of fast radio bursts are known to produce many bursts repeatedly. Repeaters are thought to be neutron stars, but the causes of bursts and the radiation mechanism are not well understood.

    Totani & Tsuzuki found remarkable similarities between the statistical properties of fast radio bursts and earthquakes, especially the laws on aftershock occurrence. Image credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center.

    Totani & Tsuzuki found remarkable similarities between the statistical properties of fast radio bursts and earthquakes, especially the laws on aftershock occurrence.

    Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are enigmatic and rarely detected bursts of energy that come from far beyond the Milky Way Galaxy.

    These events have durations of milliseconds and exhibit the characteristic dispersion sweep of radio pulsars.

    They emit as much energy in one millisecond as the Sun emits in 10,000 years, but the physical phenomenon that causes them is unknown.

    The first FRB was discovered in 2007, although it was actually observed some six years earlier, in archival data from a pulsar survey of the Magellanic Clouds.

    To date, more than one hundred FRBs have been detected, yet only some of these have so far been observed to repeat.

    “The cause of FRBs is unknown, but some ideas have been put forward, including that they might even be alien in origin,” said University of Tokyo astronomers Tomonori Totani and Yuya Tsuzuki.

    “However, the current prevailing theory is that at least some FRBs are emitted by neutron stars.”

    “These stars form when a supergiant star collapses, going from eight times the mass of our Sun (on average) to a superdense core only 20-40 km across.”

    “Magnetars are neutron stars with extremely strong magnetic fields, and these have been observed to emit FRBs.”

    It was theoretically considered that the surface of a magnetar could be experiencing a starquake, an energy release similar to earthquakes on Earth,” Professor Totani added.

    “Recent observational advances have led to the detection of thousands more FRBs, so we took the opportunity to compare the now large statistical data sets available for FRBs with data from earthquakes and solar flares, to explore possible similarities.”

    “So far, statistical analysis of FRBs has focused on the distribution of wait times between two successive bursts.”

    “However, calculating only the wait-time distribution does not take into account correlations that might exist across other bursts.”

    So the astronomers decided to calculate correlation across two-dimensional space, analyzing the time and emission energy of nearly 7,000 bursts from three different repeater FRB sources.

    They then applied the same method to examine the time-energy correlation of earthquakes (using data from Japan) and of solar flares (using records from the Hinode mission), and compared the results of all three phenomena.

    They were surprised that, in contrast to other studies, their analysis showed a striking similarity between FRBs and earthquake data, but a distinct difference between FRBs and solar flares.

    “The results show notable similarities between FRBs and earthquakes in the following ways,” Professor Totani said.

    “First, the probability of an aftershock occurring for a single event is 10-50%.”

    “Second, the aftershock occurrence rate decreases with time, as a power of time.”

    “Third, the aftershock rate is always constant even if the FRB-earthquake activity (mean rate) changes significantly.”

    “And fourth, there is no correlation between the energies of the main shock and its aftershock.”

    This strongly suggests the existence of a solid crust on the surface of neutron stars, and that starquakes suddenly occurring on these crusts releases huge amounts of energy which we see as FRBs.

    “By studying starquakes on distant ultradense stars, which are completely different environments from Earth, we may gain new insights into earthquakes,” Professor Totani said.

    “The interior of a neutron star is the densest place in the Universe, comparable to that of the interior of an atomic nucleus.”

    “Starquakes in neutron stars have opened up the possibility of gaining new insights into very high-density matter and the fundamental laws of nuclear physics.”

    The team’s work was published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

    Glowing UAP Over Dallas, Texas Oct 13, 2023, UFO Sighting News.

    Date of sighting: Oct 13, 2023

    Location of sighting: Dallas, Texas, USA
    Source: MUFON
     
    This just in. Several videos of this event came in today and I chose the best one, most steady and most high quality of video. This one shows an unknown object in the sky over Dallas and there were thousands of people who saw it happen. Some say aliens, some wonder if it's SpaceX or NASA, but one thing is clear, the US gov will not tell us the truth about a real UFO over US territory. They keep the details quiet and suggest it's a rocket launch or some other excuse. Well it's aliens and thats the truth.
    Scott C. Waring 

    Eyewitness states: 
    I was taking my usual early evening walk when I noticed an odd fuzzy-looking light in the western sky. Since the sky was completely clear and other objects in the sky - including aircraft and stars - were sharp and clear, it seemed odd that it looked almost like it was enshrouded in fog. Stars could be clearly seen behind it, and aircraft were also visible, since we are close to DFW Airport. As the object moved in a southerly direction I quickly took out my cellphone and snapped several photos before switching to video, While videoing the object it emitted a sudden vapor cloud in the direction of its travel. I was fortunate to capture that cloud on video, as well as an aircraft that passed in its vicinity. The object then slowly dissipated or faded away. The whole viewing lasted no more than a handful of minutes. None of my photos nor the video have been altered or renamed in any way. If this is an explainable terrestrial event I'd like to know, since I've never seen anything like it.

    This is What it Would Be Like to Fly Across Mars

    Many of us have dreamed about flying over the surface of Mars—someday. The planet offers so many cool places to study, and doing it in person is something for future Marsnauts to consider. The Mars Express spacecraft has been mapping the Red Planet for years. It now gives us an up-close look now, through an animation of thousands of images of Mars from its cameras.

    One of the most striking areas on Mars is its Noctis Labyrinthus—Latin for the “Labyrinth of Night.” It lies between Mars’s Valles Marineris and the gigantic volcanoes of the Tharsis Bulge. This shattered terrain is a system of valleys that stretch out across nearly 1,200 kilometers. Scientists combined ESA’s Mars Express images into an amazing flyover of this terrain, giving us a tasty hint of what future explorers will see.

    A flight over Mars’s Noctis Labyrinthus region made from Mars Express images.

    What Caused Noctis Labyrinthus?

    This maze of valleys didn’t just happen overnight. It’s a fracture zone at the heart of a region called the Tharsis Rise. Essentially, the valleys formed when volcanism in the Tharsis region led to the creation of a bulge, which caused much of the surrounding area to arch up. That created tectonic stresses on the surrounding areas.

    The crust actually grew thinner and structures called “grabens” formed. (“Graben” means “grave”.) Think of grabens as trenches of material that settled down as the crust thinned and extended. In addition, there are fractures running under most of the region. Some of the grabens are as deep as 5,000 meters, a testament to the tectonic forces at work in Mars’s ancient past.

    Flying Over This Region of Mars

    A flight over Noctis Labyrinthus is a trip through time. For example, the highest plateaus in the imagery represent the original surface level. So, imagine what it looked like before all the tectonic activity and before chunks of surface fell away.

    The intersecting canyons and valleys created by the volcanic stresses may look small here, but they are up to 30 km wide and six km deep. Over the millennia, gigantic landslides thundered down the slopes, covering up the older surface units. Other valley slopes show large dune fields. These formed when Martian winds blew sand across the surface. All in all, this flyover gives you an idea of millions of years of geologic history. It’s somewhat analogous to flying over and through Earth’s Grand Canyon and studying the cross-cutting fracture zone at its base. Such a flyover would show the earliest structures that contribute to the complexity of the Canyon.

    Creating the Mars Flyover

    It’s cool to think of Mars Express focusing a high-resolution movie camera on the surface. However, this movie comprises many individual images. The views come from more than eight Mars Express orbits. In addition to images, the team combined images with topographic information from a digital terrain model. That helped the visualization team generate a three-dimensional landscape, with every second of the video comprising 50 separate frames rendered according to a pre-defined camera path.

    In addition to showing the ancient history of Mars terrain, the video also shows some Mars Express history. The opening credits (Mars globe, first 24 seconds) were created using the recent 20-year Mars global color mosaic. Haze has been added to conceal the limits of the terrain model. It starts building up at a distance of between 150 and 200 km. The video is centered at the Martian coordinates of 7°S, 265°E.

    • Rendlesham Forest is central to one of the most mysterious UFO sightings ever

    Dubbed 'Britain's Roswell', the Rendlesham Forest mystery has captivated UFO enthusiasts ever since it took place 42 years ago.

    On three separate nights over Christmas, military personnel were convinced they had seen strange flashing lights near to a Royal Airforce base in Suffolk. 

    Numerous theories have emerged regarding what they saw that night, including pranks, a distant lighthouse and even time travel.

    But former detective Gary Heseltine claims to have uncovered new information about the incident that brings everything we thought we knew into question.

    Surprisingly, he believes the mind-boggling 1980 event may have taken place over five or six nights, having tracked 17 different sightings.

    'In simple terms, the Rendlesham case is very different from most other UFO cases because it's not one event, it's a series of events over consecutive nights,' Heseltine told MailOnline.

    'For a long time it was believed there were only two events on two nights. Then over time more details came out, and we were pretty happy that it was three events over three nights.

    'As a former detective, when I re-investigated this, I did it in a chronological way as best I could to break down the incidents and the different people involved.

    'And, in the conclusion of my book, there were 17 different timed events involving numerous personnel over what is likely to be now a five to six day period.

    'New information came to me that dates the first incident to be the 23rd of December - nobody had ever heard of that.' 

    Back in 1980, military personnel claimed to see lights hovering in the sky and descending into the woodland on three separate nights just before New Year.

    While they were allegedly convinced these shapes were alien spacecraft, it has since been brushed off as a scaremongering prank played on the US air force by Britain's Special Air Service (SAS).

    At the time, the SAS were said to have regularly tested the US security by probing the nearby perimeters of RAF Woodbridge, which allegedly stored nuclear warheads at the time of the Cold War.

    On one occasion, the Brits were allegedly subjected to a brutal interrogation and beaten up by US security before being released 18 hours later after authorities intervened.

    However, Heseltine claims there was more to this incident than what has been made public, suggesting that it all started with airman Steve Wagner on December 23.

    Just before Christmas Eve, it's said that Wagner investigated a strange incident near the East Gate of RAF Woodbridge as something had reportedly 'come down' amongst the trees.

    Alongside two others, Wagner reportedly went out to investigate and in Heseltine's book 'Non Human' it's claimed they found something quite unexpected.

    Mystery of the 1947 Roswell wreckage 

    In July 1947, a rancher reported pieces of debris scattered over his land.

    Authorities were called to the scene and after investigating the wreckage, determined the pieces were from a flying sauce.

    The local paper's front page story reported that the Roswell Army field recovered a flying saucer on a New Mexico Ranch after metallic-looking, light but strong material was scattered across the land. 

    'The intelligence office of the 509th Bombardment Group at Roswell Army Air Field announced at noon today, that the field has come into the possession of a Flying Saucer,' Roswell Daily Record reported on July 8, 1947.

    However, shortly after the 'UFO' discovery made headlines, the War Department in Washington released a statement claiming the debris was the remains of a weather balloon.

    'The airman Steve Wagner says what they came across were depressions in an equilateral triangle in this little clearing near the trees,' Heseltine told MailOnline. 

    'What he said was really significant because the depressions were all the same size and shape - they were approximately 5ft wide.

    'So the 23rd of December - if the day is accurate - and he said "I'm pretty certain it was before Christmas", it's a lot bigger than what happened on the night of Christmas night into Boxing Day - so hugely significant.'

    As 42 years have now passed, Heseltine has largely relied on the corroboration of witness accounts to evidence these claims.

    Alongside Wagner, the former detective has also investigated a number of other key witnesses including Jim Penniston, Ed Cabansag, Larry Warren and Sergeant Adrian Bustinza.

    He now claims that three separate unexplained events also took place on December 27, six on December 28 and one on December 29.

    One of his boldest claims regards US Lieutenant Bonnie Tamplin, who allegedly encountered an 'unknown object' near the site while driving.

    This reportedly caused her to crash into a ditch, having lost complete control of her car.  

    The former detective even claims she was relieved from her duties after the incident and returned to the US in distress.

    Heseltine's claims come just as the US Senate is expecting to consider a bipartisan measure regarding UFO sightings.

    The 64-page UFO Disclosure Bill seeks to make all information relating to 'unidentified anomalous phenomena' (UAPs) public.

    Heseltine believes that legislation such as this will help boost the legitimacy of extraterrestrial sightings at a time when they are often disregarded as bogus.

    He thinks there is a chance that the UK may one day follow suit in its own legislation.

    'In my lifetime I've never seen this level of build up to something that appears to be genuinely happening,' he added.

    'There is such an excitement building that we might get official confirmation that we are dealing with a non-human intelligence.' 

    RENDLESHAM FOREST INCIDENT

    In December 1980, strange lights were reported by servicemen in Rendlesham Forest near RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge, in Suffolk.

    The incident came to be known as 'Britain's Roswell'; named after the supposed UFO sightings in New Mexico.

    Soldiers investigated what the lights were, including Staff Sgt Jim Burroughs, Airman First Class Edward Cabansag and Airman First Class Larry Warren.

    The disputed sightings, over three nights between December 26-28, occurred when Britain and the West were on high alert during the Cold War.

    Retired US Air Force officer Steve Longero broke a 36 year silence in December 2016, to reveal he also saw something in the night sky.

    Mr Longero said the UFOs looked like red and green fluorescent lights hovering over treetops.

    He also dismissed one theory that the lights had been caused by a lighthouse.

    The incident became a topic of fascination in the UK after a group of servicemen went into Rendlesham Forest to investigate the mysterious lights and came out convinced they had seen seen an alien spacecraft.

    The Suffolk sightings resurfaced claims from those living in Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947, when an unexpected crash was alleged to have been the remains of a spacecraft and alien bodies.

    But this was rejected by the US military following a close investigation into the wreckage.

    The British Ministry of Defence has also dismissed the claims regarding Rendlesham.

    It said there was no threat to national security and the UFOs were likely to be caused by a series of nocturnal lights.

    Unmasking the Secrets: The Roswell UFO Sightings Uncovered

    LEAKED-Documents-Reveal-Alien-Secrets-at-Roswell

    The world of UFO sightings has long been shrouded in mystery, with Roswell, New Mexico at its heart. Nestled deep within the tales of extraterrestrial encounters, the infamous Roswell incident has intrigued UFO enthusiasts and skeptics alike. With recent revelations, it seems we might be closer than ever to uncovering the truth behind this historic event.

    In 2011, the FBI unveiled a treasure trove of files from their online vault. Among the released documents, a memo from 1950 stood out. Addressed to the iconic FBI director J. Edgar Hoover, it highlighted startling information about the recovery of three flying saucers in New Mexico. This memo instantly rejuvenated interest in the 1947 Roswell incident, where locals claimed an unidentified flying object crashed on a ranch.

    The narrative took an unexpected twist when, just days after the crash, The Roswell Daily Record’s front page declared the military had captured a flying saucer. However, 24 hours later, the story was retracted, dismissing the crashed object as a mere weather balloon. Given Roswell’s reputation as home to the 509th Bomb crew, the only atomic bomb-capable squadron at the time, the abrupt turnaround raised eyebrows. Would the elite of the elite mistake a simple weather balloon for an extraterrestrial craft? This marked the beginning of decades of debates, speculations, and conspiracy theories.

    • Ancient Aliens: LEAKED Documents Reveal Alien Secrets at Roswell (Special)

    Fast forward to 2014, ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio Tsoukalos visited the Walker Air Force Base in Roswell. Meeting with Mayor Del Jurney, he explored the very hangar where the Roswell wreckage and alleged extraterrestrial beings were first housed. Overwhelmed by the magnitude of the location’s history, Tsoukalos remarked on the significance of standing where possible alien entities once lay. The remnants of the crash? Believed to be securely stored within a classified military facility.

    The Roswell UFO crash incident has evolved from a local legend to a global enigma. With the release of more classified documents and a growing number of witnesses coming forward, the line between fact and fiction blurs. The world may soon find out whether the UFO sightings in Roswell were a result of human error or proof of extraterrestrial life.

    This UFO was caught by an Uber while driving in San Antonio. He caught a tear drop light in the distance and it stands out powerfully against the overcast sky. Similar UFOs have been seen worldwide, often called the jellyfish UFOs, the lower part has glowing dangly tentacles like a jelly fish. Texas...its a hotbed of UFO activity. 
    Scott C. Waring 

    Eyewitness states: 
    I was headed home from work in my Uber when I glanced out the window and observed the object hovering in the sky shining like a star but it was very close to the ground a few hundred feet from the ground.

    They fell from the sky as written on 12,000 years old stone discs

    There is much written about the mysterious extraterrestrial beings known as the "Dropa," described as extraterrestrial greys, who, around 12,000 years ago, experienced a crash landing on Earth in the Baian-Kara-Ula Mountains along the Chinese-Tibetan border. 

    According to what may be the earliest version of the tale, in 1937 an archeological expedition in the Bayan Har mountains led by Chi Pu Tei found half buried on the dust floor a large round stone disc, in total they found 716 stone discs and each disc was 9 inches (22.7 cm) in diameter and 3/4 inch (2 cm) thick. Each disc also had an exactly circular 2 cm hole in its center. 
    Besides the stones, the cavern walls where adorned with pictograms portraying our Solar System and intricate maps illustrating routes among the stars using intersecting lines and dots as well as remains of thin bodies with unusually large heads were also present at the site. 
    Amazingly, not only all 716 granite discs, dated to 12,000 years before present, were filled with carved tiny hieroglyph-like markings, which, after decoding the markings in 1962, turned out to be a ‘record’ of alien writing composed of microscopic characters written in a language never encountered before . 
    In 1966 further research has been conducted by Soviet researchers in Moscow who discovered that they contained large amount of cobalt and other metals, that they behaved as electrical conductors, and that they produced a humming sound when placed on a special turntable. 
    It would have made it difficult for the primitive people to carve the lettering, especially with such minute characters. When testing a disc with an oscillograph, a surprising oscillation rhythm was recorded as if, the scientists said, they had once been electrically charged or had functioned as electrical conductors. 
    The stone discs told the story of the Dropa people, space travelers from a distant planet whereby one stone disc had a thin spiral groove filled with hieroglyphics that told of the Dropa crashing their spaceship 12,000 years ago and they couldn’t repair their craft. Local Chinese (Han) killed off most of them and the survivors were those intombed in the cave. 
    The Dropa stones have become a focal point of controversy, with numerous assertions suggesting that they might be nothing more than an elaborate hoax. However, when researchers visited the Banpo museum in Xian in 1994 where several discs were on display, they were informed by the museum director that higher authorities had mandated the destruction of the discs. Officially, the museum did not recognize the existence of these mysterious stones. 
    This raises the question: were the 716 stone discs, purportedly bearing evidence of extraterrestrial visitation to Earth, truly unearthed, or is there a deliberate effort to conceal their discovery?
