Aliens and UFO News: UFOs Seen In Mexico, Nevada and Russia; Why Are They Showing Up? [VIDEOS]
Aliens and UFO News: UFOs Seen In Mexico, Nevada and Russia; Why Are They Showing Up? [VIDEOS]
( Photo :Reuters) A recent footage of an Unidentified Flying Object was seen in Henderson, Nevada.
Recent footage of an Unidentified Flying Object was seen in Henderson, Nevada. The raw recorded video is more than seven minutes and cannot be disputed according to the prominent UFO researcher Scott C Waring.
According to UFO Sightings Daily, the video shows a group of UFOs that looks just like a phoenix light. Two lights first showed up high in the city of Henderson, then there is an airplane that came along but the two lights remained and changed its position. Little by little these lights are dividing its number into four, five--changing positions horizontally and diagonally just like making a show.
The said UFOs was seen in glowing yellow, green, white and bluish color. This video was recorded by a the source in February and was taken during night time where city lights are also glowing.
Recently,
another footage of the same glowing ball light was spotted in Moscow, Russia. The video lasted for more than 15 minutes. Some said that it was a ball lightning but according to Waring, it has been visible for too long and been showing signs of intelligent movements.
"Ball lightning is much smaller than this... this UFO was about the size of a motorcycle..ball lightning lasts for under one minute, this didn't die out but instead lasted 15 minutes, then it flew away up into the clouds," Waring said.
The UFO researcher also added that the ball light had a second ring of light around it. He also said that UFO flies with curiosity. After the said UFO gone in the clouds, the storm came in minutes later, Express UK reported.
Just a few weeks ago, there was another news in Mexico where an old man claiming that he was abducted by the UFO. Francisco Acosta Tostado, 68, was found seriously injured in the bushes on the side of the road. He said that he was chased by the an aircraft why he was riding his bike.
A photo taken shows that Tostado had a blood on his shirt, police reported he had a deep gash on his head. This incident happened in the city of Paso de Ovejas, Veracruz, México, Daily News reported.
Many photos have been captured by NASA's Curiosity Rover (in Mars), Google Moon, Google Earth and Google Mars. But these so-called extraterrestrial beings are not being confirmed and supported by some scientists. But there are millions of questions asking, "are aliens really exist?"
The mysterious dark objects seem to pass close the celestial body and amazingly one looks like it's powered by rocket jets.
The UFOs were captured by an expert cameraman who spends many days videoing the sky and documents what he finds.
Crrow777, as he is identifed by his user name, put the clips on YouTube and claims to never post any hoax footage.
He does use some effects, like zoom, colour and contrast, but only to highlight anomalies.
Speaking on one clip, he says: "I am not saying this is an alien, but it is a ship being intelligently controlled."
The object are not satellites, he says, because they take almost a minute to pass the moon's surface.
Man made objects orbiting the earth would take just two or three seconds, he claims.
Youtube
He said: "You will see only video I have personally shot.
"Everything is in high definition, and a lot of it is shot through an eight-inch telescope.
"I have shot UFOs, chem trails and the UFOs that accompany them, the moon, lunar UFOs and space anomalies.
"I make a pledge to all subscribers on my channel to never run false or deceptive clips and I will never edit the clips in a way that is deceptive.
"What you see is what I observe through my camera and telescope."
Many people watching the videos have been very impressed with the footage.
One posted: "Consistent with NASA's video of the tether incident.
"They do exist and are watching us.
Youtube
"They will allow us to destroy ourselves with nuclear war.
"After all, they had a hand in making this planet what it is today."
However another added: "Have you considered the possibility that you just saw an errant space rock?
"As we all learned from the Chelyabinsk meteor [which exploded unexpectedly over Russia in October 201], we don't exactly know about all the rocks flying around out there."

NSW skywatcher who filmed UFOs says he was quizzed by men in black
NSW skywatcher who filmed UFOs says he was quizzed by men in black
There's a movie being screened in Sydney next week that is sure to polarise its audience. It's called Australien Skies.
It's a documentary about some of the unexplained stuff seen by people who call themselves skywatchers. The timing is good. Earlier this month Russian billionaire Yuri Milner announced he would spend at least $US100 million ($138m) to see if there really is anything "out there". Australia will contribute to the effort using the CSIRO's Parkes radio telescope.
There is an intriguing story in the documentary from Kiama told by Liam Freaney. He's a builder, married with two kids and is a pretty regular kind of guy who, two years ago, had no particular interest in UFOs or staring up at the heavens.
But in March 2013, he and a workmate saw in the daylight, bright stars gathering around a ball of white light which disappeared and reappeared before being approached by what he describes as a F18 Super Hornet. Then everything vanished.

A few months later he started seeing objects regularly and bought a video camera to film them. But then things, he says, took a slightly sinister turn. Helicopters started hovering low over his house.
"I would see and film an object then directly afterwards I would get home and a helicopter would show up and sit over the house," he said. "So I started filming the helicopters as well as the unidentified flying objects. It happened over and over again, 20 or 30 times at least.
"When they hover the height of a lamp post above your house and lean out the window it's definitely not military training."
"These things will go invisible in front of you then reappear then shoot across the sky into a pinprick and then come straight back in front of you at incredible speed. Maybe I have filmed something I shouldn't have. That's a possibility."
He got in touch with Damien Nott and with Mariana Flynn, president of UFO Research NSW. She said they had reports of black helicopters flying over numerous homes.
"There have been reports of people leaning out of the helicopter with a camera and filming," she said.
Mr Freaney was last year going to give a talk about his experience to her UFO group. The event had been publicised on the internet. It was two weeks before the talk and he was near home when he noticed a car behind him.
"It had flashing lights inside the front grill. It was a black car. I stopped. Two guys got out of the black Holden Statesman with a Canberra plate.
"One approached the window and he said: 'Good day Liam, how are you?' I said 'This is really strange.' He said: 'Yep, but you know what it is about. We'd like it if you didn't do your talk.' They said it would be better off for me to keep my mouth shut and to have a good day and then left."
He decided it might be wise not to give the talk. Now he has changed his mind.
"I am well aware of the situation I am putting myself in," he said. "The purpose of this whole two and a half years of contact that has happened to me I believe is for me to pass on the message that it is happening and that it is real. The only thing I have got out of it is to tell people what I am seeing."

The Valentich Disappearance: Another UFO Cold Case Solved?
The Valentich Disappearance: Another UFO Cold Case Solved?
What did he see? The missing piece of the puzzle in a strange ‘UFO’ case involving the crash of a young pilot off Australia has been identified.
What is known as the “Valentich disappearance” is a strange occurrence in the annals of UFOlogy, one never satisfactorily explained—until now. One of us (Nickell) was asked to look into the case for a television show, and he queried the other (McGaha) who came up with the missing piece of the puzzle (as perhaps only someone who was both a pilot and astronomer could do).
The story begins in Australia about 19:00 hours (7:00 PM), or shortly after sunset (6:43 PM), on October 21, 1978. A young man named Frederick “Fred” Valentich—who had left Victoria’s Moorabbin airport at 18:19 (6:19 PM)—was piloting a light airplane, a rented single-engine Cessna 182L (registration VH-DSJ) over Bass Strait, heading southeastwardly for King Island. When what he thought was another aircraft seemed to pass over him, he radioed Melbourne Air Flight Service, and spoke with controller Steve Robey. Here is the (slightly abridged) exchange (with punctuation and capitalization added), taken from the transcript of the audiotape (beginning at 19:06:14):
Valentich: Is there any known traffic below five thousand [feet]?
Robey: No known traffic.
V: I am—seems [to] be a large aircraft below five thousand.
R: What type of aircraft is it?
V: I cannot affirm. It is [sic] four bright, it seems to me like landing lights. . . . The aircraft has just passed over me at least a thousand feet above.
R: Roger, and it, it is a large aircraft? Confirm.
V: Er, unknown due to the speed it’s traveling. Is there any Air Force aircraft in the vicinity?
R: No known aircraft in the vicinity.
V: It’s approaching right now from due east towards me. . . . [Silence for 2 seconds.] It seems to me that he’s playing some sort of game. He’s flying over me two, three times, at a time at speeds I could not identify.
R: Roger. What is your actual level?
V: My level is four and a half thousand. Four five zero zero.
R: And confirm you cannot identify the aircraft.
V: Affirmative.
R: Roger. Stand by.
V: It’s not an aircraft. It is—[Silence for 2 seconds.]
R: Can you describe the, er, aircraft?
V: As it’s flying past, it’s a long shape. [Silence for 3 seconds.] [Cannot] identify more than [that it has such speed]. [Silence for 3 seconds.] [It is] before me right now, Melbourne.
R: And how large would the, er, object be?
V: It seems like it’s stationary.1 What I’m doing right now is orbiting, and the thing is just orbiting on top of me also. It’s got a green light and sort of metallic. [Like] it’s all shiny [on] the outside. [Silence for 5 seconds.] It’s just vanished. . . . Would you know what kind of aircraft I’ve got? Is it military aircraft?
R: Confirm the, er, aircraft just vanished.
V: Say again.
R: Is the aircraft still with you?
V: [It’s, ah, nor-] [Silence for 2 seconds.] [Now] approaching from the southwest. . . . The engine is, is rough idling. I’ve got it set at twenty three twenty four, and the thing is—coughing.
R: Roger. What are your intentions?
V: My intentions are, ah, to go to King Island. Ah, Melbourne, that strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again. [Silence for 2 seconds.] It is hovering, and it’s not an aircraft. [Silence for 17 seconds, open microphone, with audible, unidentified staccato noise. End of transcript.] ( Aircraft Accident 1982. See also Good 1988, 175–77; Chalker 1998, 964; Haines and Norman 2000; Baker 2000, 248)
Some versions of the transcript fail to match that of the accident report in important details. For example, instead of “[It is] before me right now,” one source (Chalker 2001, 629) gives “. . . coming for me right now.”
The communication ended about 19:12:49. Although an intensive air, land, and sea search was carried out until October 25, no trace of the Cessna was found. An oil slick discovered on October 22, some eighteen miles north of King Island, “was not established as having any connection with Valentich’s plane” (Good 1988, 178). The Bureau of Air Safety Investigation released its findings in May 1982, stating that “The reason for the disappearance of the aircraft has not been determined,” but that the outcome was “presumed fatal” (Aircraft Accident 1982). Suicide? Staged disappearance? Alien attack or abduction? Drug runners’ shootdown? Electrical discharge from a cloud igniting gas fumes? There were many “theories,” including those of “psychics” (Chalker 1998, 966–67; “Valentich” 2013). However, none seemed to explain both the disappearance and the lights. To understand what happened, we need to look more closely at Fred Valentich.
The Pilot
Fred Valentich was a twenty-year-old, inexperienced flyer with only about 150 total hours flying time and a class-four instrument rating (which meant he could operate at night but only “in visual meteorological conditions” [Aircraft Accident 1982]). He had twice been rejected by the Royal Australian Air Force, due to inadequate education. Having obtained a private pilot license in September 1977, he was studying part time for a commercial pilot’s license.
Unfortunately, he had failed all five of his exam subjects—not once but twice—and, just the month before, again failed three subjects. Further, his involvement in three flying incidents came to the attention of officials: once he received a warning for having strayed into restricted air space, and twice he was cited for deliberately flying blindly into a cloud, for which he was under threat of prosecution (Sheaffer 2013; “Valentich” 2013). In brief, Valentich may have been an accident waiting to happen.
Valentich with a Cessna, similar to the aircraft he disappeared in.
Moreover, the young pilot was enthralled with UFOs, watching films and accumulating articles on the topic. Earlier that year, according to his father, Valentich had himself observed a UFO moving away very fast. And he had expressed to his father his worry about what could happen if such presumed extraterrestrial craft should ever attack (Sheaffer 2013; “Valentich” 2013). As we shall see, his deep belief in flying saucers may have contributed to his death—and not in the way some saucer buffs imagine.
Some thought Valentich might have staged his disappearance, but the evidence does not support that hypothesis (Good 1988, 180). Nevertheless Valentich did give two contradictory reasons for his flight to King Island: (1) to pick up some friends (as he told flight officials), or (2) to pick up crayfish. However, these reasons were found to be untrue (Aircraft Accident 1982; “Valentich” 2013). Valentich had not even followed standard procedure to inform King Island airport of his intent to land there (“Disappearance” 2013).
So what was Valentich really up to—in addition to wanting to log more hours of flying experience? Possibly he had decided to look for UFOs again but, rather than admit that, offered others more legitimate-sounding reasons for his flight. In short, he may not simply have encountered a UFO but instead went looking for one. If so, his “encounter” is not surprising. As a “True Believer,” observes Robert Sheaffer (2013, 27), Valentich was “probably inclined to assume anything is a ‘UFO’ if he could not immediately identify it.”
So what did the young pilot see? Having clear skies, he described four bright lights that he mistakenly (as he later admitted) first thought were an airplane’s “landing lights” (that is, white points of light). They were above him and—except for his own movements (more on this later)—seemed to be just “hovering.” Then twice and quite correctly, he realized “it” was definitely “not an aircraft.”
As it happens, a computer search of the sky for the day, time, and place of Valentich’s flight reveals that the four points of bright light he would almost certainly have seen were the following: Venus (which was at its very brightest), Mars, Mercury, and the bright star Antares. These four lights would have represented a diamond shape, given the well-known tendency of viewers to “connect the dots,” and so could well have been perceived as an aircraft or UFO. In fact, the striking conjunction was shaped as a vertically elongated diamond, thus explaining Valentich’s saying of the UFO that “it’s a long shape.”
As to the UFO’s other characteristics, the “metallic” or “shiny” appearance could have been due to the power of suggestion alone. Having connected the dots, Valentich would likely have gone on to fill in the area as solid, even “metallic.” We must remember that Valentich’s impressions are those of someone who was confused about what he was seeing.
The “green light” could have been part of this confusion also. Remember, Valentich’s first description of the UFO involved only four bright white lights; he made no mention at that time of a green one. It could actually have been nothing more than the Cessna’s own navigation light on its right wing tip. That green light—or its reflection on the windshield—could easily have been superimposed onto the UFO sighting.
A witness on the ground, who described having seen a green light just above Valentich’s plane, had not mentioned that aspect of his story at the time. However, many years later—after the green light was made public—he did mention the detail, but he is only identified by a pseudonym. Nevertheless, he said (in the words of his interviewers) that “Its color was similar to the navigation lights on an airplane” (Haines and Norman 2000, 26)! If the Cessna was indeed close enough to the land as to be seen by the man and his two nieces, there is a simple explanation: that the airplane’s attitude (a steep angle of bank) was such that its right wing tip was up, and so its green navigation light appeared above the Cessna. As the witness stated, the light was positioned “like it was riding on top of the airplane,” and it kept a constant position, according to the witnesses (Haines and Norman 2000, 26). But again, there are problems with the main witness’s description. As his interviewers acknowledge, his “recollection of the angular size of the airplane’s lights is too large by perhaps several orders of magnitude” (Haines and Norman 2000, 28). (Incidentally, misreadings by amateur writers have now converted Valentich’s “green light” into multiple “green lights” [e.g., “Disappearance” 2013].)
But what about the UFO’s movements when it was not “hovering”? It is now clear—since we have identified the UFO as probably a conjunction of four celestial lights—that it was not the UFO moving in relation to the plane but rather the opposite: the plane moving in relation to the stationary lights. There is actually evidence from the transcript that this is so. After the UFO has repeatedly seemed to fly over him, Valentich says, “What I’m doing right now is orbiting, and the thing is just orbiting on top of me.”
This points to what was really happening to the poor inexperienced pilot. Distracted by the UFO, he may then have been deceived by the illusion of a tilted horizon. That can happen when the sun has gone down but still brightens part of the horizon, while, of course, the rest of it gets gradually darker farther away. This imbalance of lighting can cause the horizon to appear tilted, so that, in compensating by “leveling” the wings, the pilot inadvertently begins—not to orbit (circle), but to spiral downward—at first slowly, then with increasing acceleration.
At a most critical time therefore, when he should have been in fully alert mode, paying attention to his instruments, he was instead engaged in something that was extremely distracting: flying while excitedly focusing on, and talking about, a UFO. This, as we can now see, was a recipe for disaster. With Valentich succumbing to spatial disorientation, his plane (like that of young John F. Kennedy Jr. over two decades later) began what is aptly termed a “graveyard spiral.”
Further corroboration of this may come from the pilot’s statement that the engine was “rough idling”—just seconds away from his final contact. The plane’s moving in a tightening spiral would cause an increase of G-forces with a consequent decrease in fuel flow, resulting in the engine’s rough running. Or, at that point, the Cessna may have already inverted, producing the same effect because that plane had a gravity-fed fuel system.
Not surprisingly, Valentich’s airplane going missing while he was radioing a UFO report prompted talk of extraterrestrials and abduction. Indeed, it spawned later reports of other UFOs allegedly seen on the night of the Cessna’s disappearance. These provoked a skeptical Ken Williams, spokesperson of the Department of Transport, to tell a reporter, “It’s funny all these people ringing up with UFO reports well after Valentich’s disappearance” (“Pilot Missing” 1978).
Just a month after the disappearance, the pilot of another Cessna sighted the outline of what he believed was a submerged aircraft, but on another pass over, he was unable to confirm that observation (Good 1988, 178). Now thanks to yeoman’s work by Australian researcher Keith Basterfield, who rediscovered the “lost” official case file, we have new information. As he explains, “parts of aircraft wreckage with partial matching serial numbers were found in Bass Strait five years after the disappearance.” (Qtd. in Sheaffer 2013, 27.)
Fred Valentich’s UFO has now been identified. That is, we can show that a group of four bright lights, consistent with his description, was within his sight at the time he was reporting his UFO. This is the long missing piece of the puzzle that awaited solving because the case required expertise from astronomy as well as aeronautics.
The identification underscores the inescapable fact that the disappearance was simply a fatal crash. Ironically, it might never have occurred but for the young pilot’s fascination with UFOs. If not actually the reason for his evening flight, as we suspect, the fascination nevertheless was part of why it ended tragically.
We can now reread the transcript of the exchanges between Valentich and an air traffic controller with a new understanding. In our mind’s eye we watch in horror as—distracted and disoriented—the young pilot unexpectedly enters the “graveyard spiral” that carries him to his death. n

Scientist at deathbed makes shocking confessions about aliens
Scientist at deathbed makes shocking confessions about aliens
A recording has been released of the late US scientists Boyd Bushman who worked at a secret base of the United States Air Force. At that secret base, alien technology was developed and adapted for human use. According to Boyd, numerous alien bodies were studied at the facility as well. In the video, recorded shortly before his death, the Lockheed-Martin scientist shows images of alien bodies which according to him, were taken with disposable cameras at Area 51, a secret base of the Air Force in the state of Nevada.
Even though some of the details in the Biography of Bushman may seem controversial, according to British tabloid “Metro”, Bushman was an important researcher in aerospace corporation Lockheed Martin and had several highly classified patents.”As for the extraterrestrial crafts, we have United States citizens who work 24 hours a day studying UFO’s and Alien technology. We are trying to understand what we need to do.”Bushman confessions which were recorded on video are dotted with images of beings with humanoid bodies. According to the researcher, two groups of alien beings are being studied at Area 51, but there are also aliens who work in cooperation with humans.
Area 51 is an area of land located in Nevada owned by the United States government. It is popular for the fact that there, for years, numerous scientists have claimed to have been developing and testing new technologies based on alien tech, and secret military aircrafts. It is commonly known as Area 51, although the official name is Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) designation: Area 51.
According to Bushman, the alien technology is very advanced, these beings can travel at speeds much faster than light, and most of them come from planets that are located around 68 light years away from planet Earth. Bushman states that the aliens working at Area 51 are around 1.5 meters tall, they have fingers and toes just like humans but can live much longer than humans. These extraterrestrial beings are able to communicate via telepathy.
According to Bushman, scientists from Russia, China and the United States are working together at Area 51, their main research is anti-gravity technology.
Recently, Charles Bolden, NASA Administrator, confirmed the existence of infamous Area 51, but said that it does not harbor any kind of alien life or alien technology. “There’s an Area 51. But not devoted to what many people think. It’s a normal place of research and development. I never saw aliens or spaceships in it.

Is Technology Changing Our Cultural Attitudes Toward UFOs?
Is Technology Changing Our Cultural Attitudes Toward UFOs?
Drones and UFOs: It’s hard to deny the growing association between these two subjects, particularly in recent years where more and more reports of supposed anomalous aerial phenomenon are being chalked up to being possible drone sightings.
One incident that occurred in May of 2012 involved FAA officials investigating an unidentified object or aircraft that came dangerously close to colliding with a commercial airliner over Denver, Colorado. According to both pilots and FAA reports, the object purportedly resembled a large, remote controlled aircraft. “Now we have something in controlled airspace that poses a danger,” Denver-area aviation analyst Greg Feith said at the time. It was unclear what the object had been, although it had been suspected by many at the time that the object may indeed have been a drone.
A recent article in the Huffington Post by Jeffery Shaffer discussed a drone sighting he had, which led him to consider whether the broad use of drones today is diminishing the efforts of UFO researchers. “The evidence pool is being polluted by an ever-increasing presence of small, sophisticated flying machines that are totally terrestrial in origin,” Shaffer wrote. “It won’t be long before drones become the default explanation for every shiny speck or glowing orb that traverses the wild blue yonder. They also present an array of new opportunities for UFO-related pranks and hoaxes.”
Shaffer related his own experience, in which he had been commuting home when he observed what would become his first drone flyover:
“While waiting at a stoplight next to a shopping center, I noticed a bright bluish light in the sky directly ahead. How do I know it wasn’t a plane or helicopter? I’ve seen plenty of them in the past, along with hot air balloons, kites, and even streaking green meteorites that broke into pieces.”
Of course, the color blue might be distinguishable from most conventional aircraft for another reason: the FAA does not permit blue lights on any aircraft operated above a certain altitude, although hobby aircraft and RCPs often do feature this color. Shaffer noted that there was “no feeling of awe or mystery,” and after confiding to his wife what he had seen later that night, learned of a drone store in a shopping mall nearby. “I was probably witnessing an aerial test drive,” he surmised.
Returning to the notion that drone appearances are diminishing the UFO phenomenon in some way, perhaps we don’t need a sky littered with drones to affect such change. The UFOs seem to be doing a fine job of it themselves, if reports over the last few years are indeed indicative of a decline in the number of reports of strange things seen in our skies.
Bufora, the top UK forum for skywatchers, ruefully admitted that UFO sightings have been in “steady decline” since the late 1990s. Most striking of all, the British Flying Saucer Bureau has suspended its activities, because the number of sightings has crashed from a peak of around 30 a week to almost zero. Denis Plunkett, the retired civil servant from Bristol who founded the bureau in 1953, says: “I am just as enthusiastic about flying saucers as I always was, but the problem is that we are in the middle of a long, long trough. There just aren’t enough new sightings. It is not like being a philatelist. There is always something new to say about stamps.”
This isn’t just a British phenomenon. In Indiana in the US an amateur association of scientific ufologists known as Madar (multiple autonomy detection and automatic recording) has seen a steady and accelerating fall-off in UFO activity since the peaks of the mid-70s. Likewise, New Jersey’s skywatchers have openly wondered whether to call it a day. Even the cold skies of northern Norway are bereft: “It’s unexplainable,” says Leif-Norman Solhaug, leader of Scandinavian skywatching society UFO Nord-Norge. “Maybe people are just fed up with the UFO hysteria.”
Nick Redfern and I have similarly noted our frustration with this apparent trend here at MU (as can be read here and here), and just to show that we aren’t the only ones, writing for Aeon Magazine in 2013, writer Stuart Walton similarly noted, “Once, the skies were refulgent with alien craft; now they are back to their primordial emptiness, returning only static to the radio telescopes, and offering the occasional meteor shower to the wondering eye.”
Speaking of meteors, as I stood outside peering into the night sky just 12 hours prior to having authored this post on the subject, I watched brilliant pinkish Perseids streaking through the sky over me and thought, “where are all the unknowns?” Were they really ever there to begin with?
Well, certainly… although understanding what “unknowns” may entail also requires a breakdown of the possible kinds of objects, and their origins, which may have been associated with UFO sightings over the decades. I suspect there are good reasons for there being fewer decent UFO sightings in recent years, and few of them probably have to do with visits from extraterrestrial beings.
There was a time, of course, where UFO literature had been rife with such seemingly otherworldly happenings. Is the integration of technology into our lives affecting this in some way? Had the UFO reports of yesteryear truly been representative of physical craft, or were they the rudiments of some cultural holdover from the past, manifesting within our collective minds as if to display for us, in some instructive way, a path to the future, assisted by stark, alien symbolism… and nothing more?
I doubt that drones by themselves are enough to drive a death nail through the heart of UFOlogy. They may, however, be one part of the broader, cumulative trend toward secularism that is emerging from within the coming technocracy, and which have contributed to the ever-changing UFO mystery as it appears to have withdrawn increasingly from our midst. Or, rather than having withdrawn or disappeared, perhaps our cultural perception of UFOs has simply distanced itself from where the phenomenon once lingered near the realm of imagination, favoring instead a technological outlook that is more sober than at any time before.
Maybe it’s fair to ask whether technology, and maybe other factors, are indeed changing our attitudes, culturally and otherwise, about UFOs. Whatever the cause, and however we choose to interpret it, the fact that a change has been taking place for some time seems hard to deny at this point.

If You're Not A Believer In Aliens, This News Footage Might Make You Think Again
If You're Not A Believer In Aliens, This News Footage Might Make You Think Again
While filming an interview in Lima, Peru, earlier last month, a news crew stumbled across a peculiar sight. What appeared almost undeniably to be at the very least a large and purple object was seen hovering over the capital city, that many at the time were heavily convinced was UFO.
The mysterious object was spotted in the middle of the day on February 10th, and hovered in the sky for at least two hours, until floating quickly away, according to witnesses. The Peru chapter of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) isinvestigating reports further.

The Cherry Creek Sightings remain a mystery after 50 years
The Cherry Creek Sightings remain a mystery after 50 years
CHERRY CREEK, N.Y. (WIVB)
– What really happened near Cherry Creek in Chautauqua County 50 years ago? Did several teenagers really see a UFO, or did their imaginations run wild?
It’s a case that caught the attention of the New York State Police and the U.S. Air Force when the sightings allegedly happened on August 19, 1965.
The first sighting occurred around 8:20 in the evening. 16 year old Harold Butcher was milking cows in the barn on Aldrich Hill Road where he claims to have seen a “shiny silver” saucer shaped object.
“I think something unusual really did happen,” said Robert Galganski, a retired transportation safety researcher who’s examined the sightings extensively over the years. “I think the kids actually saw something.”
According to various reports, including an investigation done by the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP), Harold reported an unusual noise similar to screeching coming from a bull tethered to a metal pipe in the field.
According to a NICAP report, Harold described it “like I have never heard come from an animal before.”
Harold eventually rushes to the barn window and reports seeing a “football-shaped object hovering just above tree-level” around 500 feet from the barn.
“He later described it as having a pair of vertical seams running up and down the side. He estimated the size to be about 50 feet long and maybe 20 feet thick,” Galganski said. “He can’t tell whether the object landed in the pasture or not because there’s an elevation rise between where he was at the barn and the area just before the tree line.”
Harold told a NICAP investigator that the object emitted a beeping noise, and that it “it descended slowly emitting a red vapor downward from around the edges.” He also reported that a radio in the barn was making “a heck of a noise like a loud static.”
At one point, Harold ran outside toward the object and watched it begin to rise in the field. He reported that the “red vapor” shot from the edges toward the ground.
Harold stated to NICAP that it ascended behind the clouds “as fast as a snap of my fingers.”
“The object rises up and disappears in the low lying clouds. And the clouds, according to Harold, turn green,” Galganski said.
Robert Butcher remembers his brother Harold running over to the farm house all excited.
“He said come quick. There’s a big old flying saucer or something that just landed in the cow pasture,” said Robert Butcher, who was 14 years old at the time of the sighting.
Not long after a second sighting was reported on the farm. And this time Robert says he caught a glimpse of something strange.
“I think I remember seeing something orange like coming out of the backside of it, or underneath it or something. I don’t know for sure because it’s been so many years,” the younger Butcher stated during a recent interview with News 4.
And there was a third sighting that same night allegedly witnessed by Harold, Robert, another brother and a friend, according to a NICAP report.
“Because increasing darkness obstructed the view, the others reported the glowing yellow vapor, the green glow of the clouds above, and a faint outline of the object,” the report stated.
Two New York State troopers were called to investigate the strange sightings on the farm.
“They were serious,” recalls former NICAP investigator Jeffrey Gow.
Gow was a college student back in 1965 while working the Cherry Creek case.
He not only interviewed some of the witnesses, but Gow also talked to the troopers who responded that night.
“The sense I got from the troopers was that they were supporting that something had happened out there on the site. They weren’t dismissing it as it was a hoax. They leaned in the direction of something actually occurring out there,” Gow said.
In Gow’s original NICAP report from 1965 he notes that one of the troopers “admitted that those reporting the sighting seemed convincing…too rustic to be able to create a hoax of this sort.”
Jeffrey Gow added: “They talked about it. Gave me the details. Most notable was how impressed they were by the atmosphere. In other words, when they said, when we got out there these people were really were excited. Something had really set them off and it was difficult to calm them down.”
And it wasn’t just the State Police responding. A U.S. Air Force team from Western New York was dispatched the next day to investigate.
In those days the Air Force investigated UFO sightings under the Project Blue Book program.
“According to both teams, both the Air Force and the New York State troopers, these kids were not acting. They were genuinely scared,” Galganski added.
The Air Force report stated that “the investigating officer and three technicians were convinced that the sighting was not a hoax or fabrication. One technician remained unconvinced.”
Harold Butcher, who’s now deceased, appeared on the television show Sightingsback in 1997.
“I never seen anything move as fast as this thing moved and disappeared and come back as quick as it did,” Harold Butcher said at the time.
Whatever he saw still remains a mystery 50 years later.
Robert Butcher, who was just a boy when the Aldrich Hill Road dairy farm became known as the flying saucer farm, said he and his brothers had their own suspicions about what happened.
“We always thought maybe it was the Air Force or some other country, or something. Didn’t know what it was. Nobody could ever tell us what it was.”
The Project Blue Book program, which was terminated in 1969, labeled the Cherry Creek incident as unidentified.
“Although the sequence of events are dubious, the sighting is carried as unidentified by the Air Force since there is no definite concrete explanation,” the Air Force report reads.
“It means that they cannot explain it as any conventional man-made object, any normal phenomena, atmospheric or stellar, or it wasn’t a hoax,” Galganski said.
Of the thousands of UFO sighting reports examined by the Air Force over two decades only around 5 percent fall into the unknown category. Cherry Creek is one of the few.
“I have seen a number of cases, really tight cases with trained observers, really quite impressive detail that they debunked. Easily debunked. And I expected this one to go the same route because they could have more easily done it to this one. But they didn’t,” Gow explained.
The Air Force ruling on Cherry Creek also surprised Robert Galganski who believes the agency “reluctantly and grudgingly” classified the sighting as unidentified.
“Some of the explanations that Blue Book came up with were so outlandish that they were more amazing than saying that it was unidentified. Their conclusions are legendary. I mean they’re often quoted as an example of how far this agency would go to debunk UFO reports.”
Galganski says he noticed some discrepancies in Harold Butcher’s version when he began reinvestigating the case in the 1990s, and interviewed Harold by phone.
“One that the object had legs — tripod like legs that came out of the bottom which do not appear in any of the NICAP team’s reports . And he had a different color for the object,” Galganski said. “Over the course of 30 years this is the fish story that gets better and better and better.”
In Jeffrey Gow’s original report from 1965, he states that “on occasion” he noticed Harold “coloring in” some details of the story.
“He had a great deal of detail in the story right down to the description of the object and different things that to me seemed a little bit too much detailed,” Gow said recently.
50 years later Robert Butcher stands by the story.
“I know he saw something. I know I saw something.”
Robert Galganski was ready to write-off the Cherry Creek incident as a clever hoax. But then he learned of other witness sightings before and after the August 19 incident.
The one that really got his attention involved two state troopers who allegedly saw something strange 28 hours later in the same area.
According to a NICAP report, the troopers were on Plank Road, about 1.5 miles from the farm where Harold Butcher reported seeing an object the night before.
Jeffrey Gow remembers the troopers showing him where they were around 1:15 a.m. on August 21.
“They said it was eerie.”
As they looked down on the farm where the Butcher sightings occurred, the troopers reported seeing a straight-line, fixed-position pattern of lights with a smaller red light in the front.
“They said it was coming right at us, but it was coming really low. And they said it came right over us and we looked up and there were seven orange, amber circles following the original small light,” Gow said.
In the original report, one of the troopers noted that “it seemed all eight lights were of the same object.”
The report also stated that the object was “about 2000 to 3000 feet above our head…it seemed to hold a straight north-south course.”
When asked what kind of sound the object made as it passed overhead, the troopers stated that the “object purred like a bag full of kittens.”
“You’ve got two people who are trained observers, professionals. And also, unlike the Butchers perhaps, they don’t want publicity among their peers,” Gow said. “They don’t want to be known as the troopers who were behind the flying saucer. So I would expect them to be much more reticent to voice what they feel. But they seemed sincere. You can’t prove anything of course, but my sense was that they were sincere.”
For Galganski, the troopers’ sighting turned out to be more impressive and compelling than what Harold Butcher and his brothers reported seeing the night before.
And that was enough for the UFO researcher to reconsider his initial skepticism.
“I think the kids actually saw something. There was a stimulus. They absolutely saw something,” Galganski said.
Jeffrey Gow, who interviewed the Butchers back in 1965, agrees that there was some kind of stimulus that night.
“Something happened. I feel that something happened out there. What it could have been is any number of things.”
Robert Butcher, who’s now 64 years old, knows some people will always be skeptical no matter what.
”It’s their choice not to believe. All I know is what I saw. I won’t lie to you about it. I don’t believe in lying.”

Why Do UFO’s Have Lights?
Why Do UFO’s Have Lights?
One of my major beefs with UFO issue is the discussion always ends up sounding like the script of a (bad) science fiction film.
C’mon, why don’t the aliens just land on the White House lawn and announce themselves? Because, we are told, they are watching us and taking data. They want to keep their presence hidden so that it doesn’t affect our evolution. There is more, but you get the idea.
The problem, of course, is that any civilization with technology capable of spanning light-years ought to be able to hide themselves well enough to avoid detection from hairy apes with jet-planes like us.
“Lights in the Sky” has been at the root of many UFO sightings. But why would alien spacecraft need lights? If they were really planning interstellar black-ops, then they should paint their spacecraft — you know — black and turn off the damn lights.
Here is a Reported Sighting in Sonora Mexico, August 16 2014 (SEE VIDEO)
Maybe the lights are not for navigation, landing or warning to approaching spacecraft but for communication like it Close Encounters of the Third Kind or maybe they are part of a Propulsion system?
Check out this Sighting in Colombia
A NASA study has recently concluded that the “Cannae Drive,” a disruptive new method of space propulsion, can produce small amounts of thrust without the use of propellant, in apparent discordance with Newton’s third law. According to its inventor, the device can harness microwave radiation inside a resonator, turning electricity into a net thrust. If further verified and perfected, the advance could revolutionize the space industry, dramatically cutting costs for both missions in deep space and satellites in Earth orbit.
Burkhard Heim (see Heim’s Quantum Theory, HQT) postulated that linking gravity to electromagnetism would generate a light particle he coined as a gravitophoton. Maybe the lights reportedly emanating from various UFO sights are a manifestation of HQT in action.
A Photon Starship with a type of propulsion using effectively a ‘beam of light’. This is allied with other exotic forms of propulsion, such as ‘electric’ and ‘ion motors’. We just beginning here on earth with photon rockets and solar or photon sails.
More than 25 years ago, the United States began to develop a missile defense system that was given the nickname “Star Wars.” This system was designed to track and use lasers to shoot down missiles launched by foreign countries. While this system was designed for war, researchers have found many other uses for these high-powered lasers. In fact, lasers could one day be used to propel spacecraft into orbit and to other planets.

The basic idea behind light propulsion is the use of ground-based lasers to heat air to the point that it explodes, propelling the spacecraft forward. If it works, light propulsion will be thousands of times lighter and more efficient than chemical rocket engines, and will produce zero pollution.

Laser-propelled Light-craft
Light-propelled rockets sound like something out of science fiction — spacecraft that ride on a laser beam into space, require little or no onboard propellant and create no pollution. Sounds pretty far-fetched, considering we haven’t been able to develop anything close to that for conventional ground- or air-travel on Earth. But while it may still be 15 to 30 years away, the principles behind the light-craft have already been successfully tested several times. A company called Light-craft Technologies continues to refine the research that began at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y.
The basic idea for the light-craft is simple — the acorn-shaped craft uses mirrors to receive and focus the incoming laser beam to heat air, which explodes to propel the craft.
Here’s a look at the basic components of this propulsion system:
Carbon-dioxide laser – Light-craft Technologies uses a Pulsed Laser Vulnerability Test System (PLVTS), an offspring of the Star Wars defense program. The 10 kw pulsed laser being used for the experimental light-craft is among the most powerful in the world.
Parabolic mirror – The bottom of the spacecraft is a mirror that focuses the laser beam into the engine air or onboard propellant. A secondary, ground-based transmitter, telescope-like mirror is used to direct the laser beam onto the light craft.
Absorption chamber – The inlet air is directed into this chamber where it is heated by the beam, expands and propels the light-craft.
Onboard hydrogen– A small amount of hydrogen propellant is needed for rocket thrust when the atmosphere is too thin to provide enough air.
Prior to liftoff, a jet of compressed air is used to spin the light craft to about 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPMs). The spin is needed to stabilize the craft gyroscopically. Think about football: a quarterback applies spin when passing a football to throw a more accurate pass. When spin is applied to this extremely lightweight craft, it allows the craft to cut through the air with more stability.
Once the light craft is spinning at an optimal speed, the laser is turned on, blasting the light-craft into the air. The 10-kilowatt laser pulses at a rate of 25-28 times per second. By pulsing, the laser continues to push the craft upward. The light beam is focused by the parabolic mirror on the bottom of the light-craft, which heats the air to between 18,000 and 54,000 degrees Fahrenheit (9,982 and 29,982 degrees Celsius) — that’s several times hotter than the surface of the sun. When you heat air to these high temperatures, it is converted to a plasma state — this plasma then explodes to propel the craft upward.
This laser light craft could also use mirrors, located in the craft, to project some of the beamed energy ahead of the ship. The heat from the laser beam would create an air spike that would divert some of the air past the ship, thus decreasing drag and reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the light-craft.
Microwave-propelled Light-craft
Another propulsion system being considered for a different class of light-craft involves the use of microwaves. Microwave energy is cheaper than laser energy, and easier to scale to higher powers, but it would require a ship that has a larger diameter. Light-crafts being designed for this propulsion would look more like flying saucers (now we’re really heading into the realm of science fiction). This technology will take more years to develop than the laser-propelled light-craft, but it could take us to the outer planets. Developers also envision thousands of these light-craft, powered by a fleet of orbiting power stations, that will replace conventional airline travel.
Microwave-powered light-craft will rely on orbiting power stations.

A microwave-powered light-craft will also utilize a power source that is not integrated into the ship. With the laser-powered propulsion system, the power source is ground-based. The microwave propulsion system will flip that around. The microwave-propelled spacecraft will rely on power beamed down from orbiting, solar power stations. Instead of being propelled away from its energy source, the energy source will draw the light-craft in.
Before this microwave light craft can fly, scientists will have to put into orbit a solar power station with a diameter of 1 kilometer (0.62 miles). Leik Myrabo, who leads the light-craft research, believes that such a power station could generate up to 20 gigawatts of power. Orbiting 310 miles (500 km) above Earth, this power station would beam down microwave energy to a 66-foot (20-meter), disk-shaped light-craft that would be capable of carrying 12 people. Millions of tiny antennae covering the top of the craft would convert the microwaves into electricity. In just two orbits, the power station would be able to collect 1,800 gigajoules of energy and beam down 4.3 gigawatts of power to the light-craft for the ride to orbit.
The microwave light-craft would be equipped with two powerful magnets and three types of propulsion engines. Solar cells, covering the top of the ship, would be used by the light-craft at launch to produce electricity. The electricity would then ionize the air and propel the craft for picking up passengers. Once it’s launched, the microwave light-craft used its internal reflector to heat the air around it and push through the sound barrier.
So in the end we can see that having lights on a extraterrestrial crafts may very well we the propulsion system and/or communications rather than what we use them for here on earth which is mainly for navigation.
Or,…Maybe the Lights have others uses we cant even imagine yet!
Strange UFO Lights Confuse Witnesses!

Simon Beck Crop Circle dans la neige
Simon Beck Crop Circle dans la neige
Depuis 2004, l’artiste anglais de 54 ans Simon Beck parcourt les stations de ski enneigées du monde entier pour réaliser ce que l’on pourrait appelé du Snow Art, une sorte de crop circle dans la neige, comme Sonja Hinrichsen.
Dans la station des Arcs en France, il a déjà laissé ses empreintes dans la neige pour créer des motifs géométriques. Chaque oeuvre lui prend entre six heures et deux jours et c’est un véritable exploit physique et de repère dans l’espace. Des exemples en photos dans la suite de ces réalisations éphémères. En espérant qu’il ne neige pas entre temps…

Underground cities and networks around the World – Myths and Reality (Part 1 /2 )
Underground cities and networks around the World – Myths and Reality (Part 1)
Underground structures even whole cities have always been part of most of the world’s myths and religions. A few have been discovered but most of them have not. Side by side with the stories about underground structures, we have underground networks and tunnels connecting different places and sometimes extending for many kilometres and even between different countries.
In this article we will explore the myths and legends from all over the world that refer to underground cities and tunnels as well as what archaeologists and researchers have found and how these findings may be connected to such stories.
Underground Networks and Cities in Myths and Legends
According to mythological traditions, underground sites were mostly referred to as entrances to the underworld and we find such references all around the world. Although most of us think of the ‘underworld’ as a representation of ‘hell’ and therefore an imaginary or spiritual place for ‘bad’ people, in reality in ancient religions that wasn’t the case. The underworld was a place where the dead would go, but it was a place with physical entrances, guards, buildings and cities, and a place that a few mortals could visit and even communicate with the dead souls, gods, kings or the armies of the underworld. In a few cases though, according to the legends, they could even resurrect a dead person.
One of the most famous underground cities is the city of Agartha, a legendary city that is supposed to be in the centre of the Earth, the Earth’s Core. Central Asia is the origin of those legends and the race inhabiting this underground realm was called the Agharti. Theosophists refer to Agartha as a vast complex of caves and an underground network that was inhabited by the Asuras (evil demons) and enemies of the Gods. This underground network was supposedly made by man.
In Hindu mythology there are legends of a race called the Nagas, serpent like intelligent creatures with human faces that live in underground caverns. Those creatures are described as ‘children of Gods’ – immortal and able to fly - who got married with human kings and queens and supposedly spiritually advanced. Similarly, in Chinese legends dragons are not the ugly flying beasts that we believe today, but wise creature that would be mentors of kings and creators of kingdoms. Many Tibetans are mentioned to have entered those caves of the Nagas that expand miles and miles inside the mountains of Asia.
What is interesting is that a strange light emanates in those underground realms which has also been mentioned as the hollow earth inner sun. So the underground cities are not in dark as we would believe. Some of those realms now are inside Earth while in the past they used to be on the surface but were forced to move inside Earth due to circumstances like attacks or maybe even climate change.
Shambhala (a Sanskrit word meaning ‘place of peace’) is another famous holy place that for some is supposed to be a spiritual ‘paradise’, but for others it is suggested to be a real underground city with references of people that have actually visited it. Legends mention that the King of Shambhala travelled to Indi to meet Buddha and listen to his teachings. One major difference with Shambhala is that it is supposed to be a holy place in comparison to Agartha, which is a place of demons. According to Helena Blavatsky, Shambhala is located in the Gobi Desert.
On the other side of Earth, in America we have the legend of Akakor, a legend that the latest adventure of Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skulls was based on. Tatunca Nara, an Amazon jungle guide, claims to have seen the city and described not only the city but also the chronicles of the underground kingdom. According to that legend ‘Gods’ came from a solar system known as ‘Schwerta’ and built an underground tunnel system in South America. This civilization left 13 underground cities in South America in the jungles of Amazon, yet to be found.
In the Mayan mythology we have the mythical underground city of Xibalba, ‘the land that the sun goes down into’ which was inhabited by superheroes and Gods, a civilization that supposedly vanished around the Middle Ages. The entrance to this world was thought to be located in Guatemala and description of the structures and locations within Xibalba are described in Popol Vuh.
In Greece, we have the myths of Hades and the Underworld, a realm where gods and heroes lived. God Pluto was the God of the Underworld which had many different sections including the Elysium and Tartarus.
In Irish legends we hear about the people named Tuatha De Danaan (People of the Goddess Danu), a race who moved underground when another race arrived on the island. According to the legends they came to Ireland in ‘dark clouds’ and landed on the mountains of Ireland. Those people in today’s myths are referred to as fairies.
In one of the Irish poems it is said about these people:
It is God who suffered them, though He restrained them they landed with horror, with lofty deed, in their cloud of mighty combat of spectres, upon a mountain of Conmaicne of Connacht. Without distinction to descerning Ireland, Without ships, a ruthless course the truth was not known beneath the sky of stars, whether they were of heaven or of earth.
In Norwegian legends we have the Dwarves, beings of the underground associated with craftsmanship. Different races of Dwarves that were the ones that supplied the Gods with weapons.
In Egypt, we have references of the historians Herodotus and Strabo of a colossal underground temple that contained 3,000 rooms full of paintings and hieroglyphs, a lost labyrinth yet to be found.
There are many accounts of people that have accessed this underground realm which includes not only mythological accounts but accounts from recent history. It is also written in documents that Hitler and the Nazis discovered an entrance to the interior of Earth in Antarctica. The Nazi’s believed that a civilization lives inside Earth, the ‘super humans’. Some believe that the Nazi’s were in contact with them and in fact they were directing them and even sharing technology with them. While there is no proof of that kind of contact, we definitely know that the Nazi’s had the most advanced technology than any other country of the world during World War II.
The concept of the Hollow Earth is a popular concept and has also been the topic of many books like ‘At the Earth’s Core’ by Edgar Rice Borroughs, ‘A Journey to the Center of the Earth’ by Jules Verne or ‘Message found in a Bottle’ by Edgar Allen Poe.
Stories of vast underground realms, cities and networks inhabited by god-like beings more advanced and more intelligent than the current humanity are intriguing..
You can read Part 2 here: Discoveries of vast underground networks spanning countries and maybe even continents.
Underground cities and networks around the World – Discoveries (Part 2)
Recently in my article I mentioned how extensive underground networks of tunnels have been found throughout Europe. Here we explore some of the other remarkable underground discoveries that have occurred throughout the world.
Turkey
Derinkuyu in Cappadocia in Turkey is probably the largest underground city that has been discovered to date. It spans more than 8 levels going as deep as 80 meters with more than 600 entrances to the surface. Although the date the original city was built is unknown, the Turkish Department of Culture dates the city back to the 8th century BC. It was made by the Phrygians, ancient Indo-European people, who worshiped the “Great Mother”, Cybele, as the Greeks and Romans knew her. The Phrygians developed an advanced culture, famous for its music and the legend of King Midas, a Phrygian King, who turned everything he touched into gold.
Why the city was built is still unknown, but what is known is that it was used by the Christians escaping persecution from the Roman Empire in the 2nd century AD. Cappadocia includes a huge number of underground tunnels and ‘cities’ and more and more are discovered every year.
Egypt
In Egypt, the Giza Plateau has an enormous underground system that is a combination of manmade caverns and tunnels as well as subterranean rivers and passages. Since 1978 the caverns have been mapped using ground penetrating radar with the explorations led by Dr Jim Hurtak who has supposedly entered massive chambers larger than our largest cathedrals. A few historians believe that the underground cave system in Giza, is the legendary ‘City of the Gods’, the massive underground city described by ancient writers Herodotus (5th century BC) and Strabo (1st Century AD). Herodotus wrote:
There I saw twelve palaces regularly disposed, which had communication with each other, interspersed with terraces and arranged around twelve halls. It is hard to believe they are the work of man. The walls are covered with carved figures, and each court is exquisitely built of white marble and surrounded by a colonnade. Near the corner where the labyrinth ends, there is a pyramid, two hundred and forty feet in height, with great carved figures of animals on it and an underground passage by which it can be entered. I was told very credibly that underground chambers and passages connected this pyramid with the pyramids at Memphis.
Furthermore, he spoke of the discovery of a multi-level megalithic metropolis under Giza that was 15,000 years old.
Many ancient writers supported Herodotus' record of underground passages connecting major pyramids and Lamblichus, a fourth-century Syrian representative of the Alexandrian School of mystical and philosophical studies, recorded information about an entranceway through the body of the Sphinx into the Great Pyramid:
This entrance, obstructed in our day by sands and rubbish, may still be traced between the forelegs of the crouched colossus. It was formerly closed by a bronze gate whose secret spring could be operated only by the Magi. It was guarded by public respect, and a sort of religious fear maintained its inviolability better than armed protection would have done. In the belly of the Sphinx were cut out galleries leading to the subterranean part of the Great Pyramid. These galleries were so art-fully crisscrossed along their course to the Pyramid that, in setting forth into the passage without a guide throughout this network, one ceasingly and inevitably returned to the starting point.
Since the declassification of the ground penetrating radar, more and more underground systems have been discovered but not yet explored in various places around the world.
Wales
During the summer of 1998, cave explorers using scientific equipment were able to confirm that a linked cave system some 15 miles in length exists underground in North Wales.
South and Central America
In Guatemala, 800 kilometres worth of tunnels have been mapped underneath the Mayan pyramid complex at Tikal. Researchers have suggested that this may provide an explanation for how half a million Mayans escaped the decimation of their culture.
In 2008 archaeologists in Mexico discovered eleven stone temples in underground caves including an underground road that Mayans believe that it was the road to the Mythical underworld city known as Xibalba as mentioned in the previous article.
North America
In April of 1909 there was a story in the Phoenix Gazette entitled ‘Explorations in Grand Canyon’ where a man named Kinkaid discovered several hundred underground rooms some of them containing artifacts such as weapons and instruments unknown to native Americans, Egyptian-like hieroglyphics, mummies and a Buddha-like statue.
In 1985 in an article in Search magazine, there was a story by a Naval officer saying that they found underwater tunnels that span several hundred miles.
China
In 1992, 24 man-made caves were discovered in China, displaying incredible craftsmanship that would have involved the excavation of 36,000 cubic meters of stone. The floor of the grotto was more than two thousand square meters with the tallest point exceeding 30 metres. There are no historical references of the caves and the reason why they were built is unknown.
Europe
In 2012 in Italy archaeologists found an underground pyramid shaped vault of Etruskan origins with a series of tunnels starting from that point probably extending deep inside the ground dated before 1000 BC. Carved stairs run down the wall deeper into other tunnels where another pyramidal structure was found.
In Naples, a labyrinth of several miles of tunnels lies below the city, an underground city that spreads below the old town with many myths and legends surrounding them.
In Malta a network of tunnels was found under the historic capital of Malta, Valleta. Myths say that the network of tunnels in Malta even includes underground cities.
Legends of ‘Gods’ building vast underground cities to be protected by events on the surface appear in the myths and legends of multiple different continents from Egypt to America to China. Could that be the explanation for the thousands of tunnels, caves and underground cities around the world? It seems to me that further research and exploration is needed to uncover just what these underground networks for used for, why they were built and by whom. Until then, their existence remains a mystery.

The Alien Agenda: Myth, Underground Bases & The Extraterrestrial Presence
The Alien Agenda: Myth, Underground Bases & The Extraterrestrial Presence
Deep in north central New Mexico is the sleepy little town of Dulce. Dulce is located on the Archuleta Mesa on the Colorado - New Mexico Border. It is home to about 3000 residents and is the capitol of the Jicarilla Apache Nation. For as small and as insignificant as this remote location may sound, it became the center of controversy in the early 1980's. Physicist and inventor, Paul Bennewitz claimed he had discovered an underground base occupied by extraterrestrials near Dulce. His story quickly spread through the UFO community. Allegations th at surround the base include human abductions ("alien abductions") by these extraterrestrial beings. He also asserted that the extraterrestrials were engaging in the development of advanced technology including genetic manipulation. Their plan, according to Conspiracy Theorists, is to control the government and gain ultimate control of the Earth by means of a New World Order. Stories have emerged regarding an untoward alliance between humans and the inhabitants of the Dulce base which include ties to shadow governments via secret societies such as the Illuminati, the Masons, the Bilderberg Group and the Skull and Bones.
Dulce is not the only place on earth where it is believed underground bases exist, but it is the one which has received the greatest notoriety in recent times. Subterranean bases, according to Conspira cy Theorists, can be found around the world with major active outposts all across the United States, Australia, Antarctica and South America. These bases are connected to each other via a series of channels which connect one base to another. There are even assertions that one of these tunnels leads to an active base beneath the Vatican which has been exerting control over western civilization for centuries.
A wealth of information regarding this subject has recently surfaced that seemingly reaches across vast extremes. And as strange as all of this may sound, could any of what they say be true? We turn to mythology in the search for answers. It must be stated before we move on, that mythology, like many of the claims that come from the UFO community is treated more like science fiction rather than fact. Traditional mythologists contend that the gods we f ind in myth represent the forces of nature or the creation of someone's vivid imagination. With that said, does mythology support these seemingly outlandish claims?
Stories of underground realms occupied by "the gods" pervade mythology. Depending on the culture, it has been called Hades, Tartarus, Xibalba, Duat, Patala and Hell. These "homes of the gods", are not always found deep within the earth, but are sometimes described as being within a mountain or deep beneath the waters of the earth. Access to their domain, regardless of locality, is often described as located through the mouth of a cave. The entrance may appear open at one time and then disappear from view completely and instantaneously. The inhabitants of these underground realms did not desire to be visited by unwanted nor unexpecte d company, yet access was granted to select individuals.
According to ancient texts, entrance into the underworld was anything but easy. The Mayan Popul Vuh, for example, describes the route taken by the hero brothers Hunhun-Ahpu and Vukub-Hunapu. It tells of a steep descent into the home of the Lords of Xibalba and the many challenges they had to face. Similarly, texts such as the Egyptian Book Of The Dead, describe the path by which the deceased god-King must travel to enter Duat. Like the Popul Vuh, the path is fraught with challenges the individual must pass in order to enter the realm of the dead, the underworld. The Vishnu Purana states that the deepest level of the underworld, Patala, can be found 70,000 yojanas beneath the surface of the earth. Gilgamesh, in the epic bearing his name, is described as traveling twel ve leagues in the dense darkness until he arrived in the light filled chamber of the underworld.
The underground domains of the gods are described as filled with houses or vast halls where thousands of individuals could assemble. Fountains, plants, tall grasses, trees and animals of all kinds filled this land. The divine ascetic, Narada, who is featured in the Vishnu Purana claims to have visited Patala. "Patala was much more charming than heaven. He exclaimed "What can be compared with Patala where Nagas (serpents) are adorned with beautiful and brilliant and pleasure-diffusing gems? This region is embellished with the daughters of Daityas and Danavas.".
Similar descriptions of the underground/underwater homes of the gods are scattered through mythology. The home of the Sumerian fertility god Enki, which is located in the watery deep, is described as having his house built of gold, silver and lapis lazuli. Even writers, such as Greek philosopher Plato, echo this notion. He believed that the earth was littered with a number of hollows that were full of water, air, trees, fruits and flowers.
Surprisingly, Plato confirms yet another claim made by modern UFOlogy. Plato goes on to state that these hollows were connected to one another by subterranean channels. But Plato isn't the only one who refers to tunnels that lie beneath the surface of the ear th. Inca legends tell of vast networks of tunnels that crisscross the length and breadth of the planet, complete with underground cities. When Pizarro and the Spanish conquistadors entered Peru, they kidnapped the Inca emperor Atahualpha and held him for ransom. They demanded enough gold to fill a room in return for Atahualpha's release. Pizarro's men heard rumors that the Inca gold was being held in a vast network of subterranean tunnels. The tunnels were thousands of years old and ran for miles beneath the Inca capitol. In more recent years adventurers who have hazarded into the caverns beneath Cusco entered but were never seen again. One man actually did make it out of the tunnels alive and he brought with him two bars of gold. According to officials he had gone mad. The entrances to the tunnels were then walled up for safety's sake - at least that is the official story. The Apache Indians report that their ancestors took refuge in ancient tunnels during a cataclysmic disaster on the earth. They wandered these immense passageways for years carrying the seeds for life in the new world.
But what about the other claim made by UFOlgists regarding these bases being used for genetic engineering? According to their assertions it is in the lowest level, the 7th level, of the Dulce base that the extraterrestrials are engaging in this kind of experimentation.
Again, mythology supports this premise. Native American tribes across the country are the most vocal when it comes to this topic. The Jicarilla Apache (whose headquarters is in Dulce), the Navaho and Hopi Indians have long-standing traditions of man's creation and emergence from beneath the surface of the earth. The Algonquians recount "Thus did the lowermost world-cave become overfilled with living things, full of unfinished creatures, crawling like reptiles over one another in dark blackness." In this matter they do not stand alone. Berosus, a Babylonian priest, tells of the hideous creatures that inhabit this underground realm. He described men who had one body but two heads, some with the legs and horns of a goat and even some with the hind quarters of a horse and the body of a man. "In short, there were creatures in which were combined the limbs of every species of animal."
These genetic experiments are, according to reports from UFO advocates, being conducted by a grou p of reptilian beings in the lowest levels of the base. Thomas Castello, a former senior security officer at the base, testified that the base at Dulce is a seven level underground facility with the lower levels described as a series of natural caverns. It was believed by Castello that these caverns were used by different extraterrestrial races in our remote past. In Hindu cosmology, the Naga (serpents) once lived on earth, but the great god Brahma sent them to live under the sea and in the seventh level of their underground realm called Patala. In the Sumerian Inana's Descent To The Nether World, Inana is required to pass through seven gates to finally reach the bowels of the underworld. Aztec legend says that Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent, went to Mictlan, the Aztec Underworld, and created mankind using his own blood and the bones of the previous race. Throughout mythology the act of creating humanity is always associated with a specific group of gods, the fertility gods. Fertility gods around the world are traditionally depicted as reptilian or amphibious in nature and appear in art as a blend between a man and a fish or a man and a snake.
A number of individuals also argue the Reptilian's true agenda is to control us, with the objective to dominate the planet. They cite the development of a New World Order. Proponents of this theory believe that the Reptilians, or the byproduct of their genetic manipulation experiments, intend to take control of the earth's surface. This takeover is being orchestrated by an extremely powerful and influential group which includes many of the world's wealthiest people. Some claim members of this elite group are actually genetically related to each other. Their goal is to have every man, woman and child on the earth obedient to their covert agenda. The Reptilians are also accused of wanting to reduce the population on the earth and are employing weapons such as chemt rails, GMO's, vaccinations and man-made viruses to reduce our numbers. It is contended that it is easier to control 500,000 or a million individuals than it is the 7 billion who currently live on the earth.
A look into mythology relative to this claim does have a few pillars of support. The idea of culling the human population on Earth is not a modern concept. In the Sumerian Epic of Atrahasis we find a story where the gods do just that! Twelve hundred years after the creation of mankind the number of people who inhabited the Earth grew. Their "noise" disturbed the Sky god Enlil's sleep. Enlil decided to send a plague in order reduce the population. This worked for a while but when another 1200 years passed the populati on had grown again and Enlil was once more bothered by the noise. This time, in order to decrease their numbers, he gets the Thunder-rain god Adad to hold back the rains and the world suffered from a great drought where vast numbers died. The population continues to grow, and by the time another 1200 years pass the noise became too much for Enlil to bear. Wanting to alleviate his problem he tells the gods to hold back all of nature's gifts. This went on for six years and as the texts describe, the people of Earth were reduced to cannibalism in order to survive. The Fertility god, Enki, tried to save the people from starvation. This angered Enlil even more. Finally Enlil, in an act of vengeance, decided to destroy mankind once and for all. He planned to do this by flooding the world. Enki, once again steped in and saved humanity from total annihilation. He warned Atrahasis of the impending flood and told him t o build a boat to save himself and his family.
Torrents of theories have come forward as we seek the truth regarding our place in the universe. Mythology does lend itself to support a number of these claims. It is difficult to determine if the creators of these theories based their conjecture using myth as their foundation, first hand experiences, or, something else. What does seem evident is that much of the information UFO researchers are bringing to light does parallel the myths and legends that have passed to us from antiquity. Bringing this idea full circle; if the stories being unearthed in the UFO community were not based on mythological sources, yet mythology su pports these claims, then the stories of our distant past may have a basis in fact. It implies that the gods were living breathing beings who walked the earth in our remote past, created man and played an essential role in the development of life and culture on the planet.

The Psychology and Neuroscience of Alien Abduction
The Psychology and Neuroscience of Alien Abduction
If the figures are to be believed, up to 4 million people have been abducted by aliens in the US, with many millions more captured world wide. Although the existence of human hungry aliens might be impossible to disprove per se, it is unlikely that extra-terrestrials could manage such mass kidnappings without being commonly noticed. This suggests that there are many people who falsely believe they have been seized by creatures from outer-space, perhaps after experiencing unusual and bizarre phenomena. The purpose of this article is to communicate some of the recent research in psychology and neuroscience that gives us some clues as to how and why these experiences and beliefs occur.
Some of the many thousands of people who claim to have been abducted are likely to be fortune seekers, bar-room braggers, publicity hounds and maybe even some genuine abductees. Yet with the high numbers of people reporting abductions, many of the people who believe they have been captured will likely have been mistaken.
Sleep paralysis
Awareness during sleep paralysis is a common explanation for this confusion, most probably as abduction experiences and conscious sleep paralysis attacks often share many of the same features, such as waking whilst unable to move, feelings of fear, dread or unease and a feeling of pressure on the body. Normal sleep paralysis happens when the body enters the REM stage of the sleep cycle. The brain stem blocks movement signals that would normally travel from the brain to the muscles, probably to stop us carrying out the movements we dream about doing. The frightening aspect of this occurs when a sleeper awakens, becomes conscious, but who’s movement control is not reinstated by the brain. This state can also be accompanied by what are known as ‘hypnopompic’ hallucinations which occur naturally to many people whilst awakening. These hallucinations can take the form of voices, lights, figures or any number of strange bodily sensations. It is little wonder that when combined with fearful paralysis such uncanny experiences might be interpreted as alien in origin.
Temporal lobe disturbance
Another commonly cited source of internal spookiness are the temporal lobes of the brain. Electrical stimulation of the surface of the temporal lobes (usually done on an awake patient when they are undergoing brain surgery) can produce unusual auditory sensations. Similarly, Michael Persinger, a Canadian scientist, has produced strange sensations in his research participants by using magnets to influence temporal lobe function from outside the skull. Such sensations have included feelings of a ‘presence’, disorientation and fear. It would seem unlikely that a possible abductee would fail to notice if someone placed large magnets near his or her head (or even that they were subject to brain surgery !) before the ‘abduction’ experience. However, similar effects can be caused by epileptic or similar seizures in the temporal lobes. Many epilepsy sufferers who have temporal lobe seizures report mystical experiences, missing time, out of body feelings or even strange smells or ‘atmospheres’ prior to, during or after a seizure. It must be remembered that not all forms of epilepsy cause dramatic shaking of the body, and many simply result in brief lapses of consciousness or experiences such as those noted above. This leads us to wonder whether disturbances in the temporal lobes may also contribute to experiences which some people may interpret as an alien abduction.
Mental illness
Surprisingly, overt mental illness may be one of the least likely explanations for abduction experiences. Research has previously suggested that alien contactees are no more likely to show signs of mental illness than the general population, a finding which has been backed up by several other studies. However, many features once thought present only in mental illness have now been discovered to be held by much of the population. If we look at the healthy population as a whole, these features seem to exist on a continuum with some people reporting anomalous thoughts and feelings or having certain traits more than others. In this vein, it seems people who report themselves as abductees are more likely to endorse unusual experiences, be creative and imaginative, have depressive ideas, be suspicious, have dissociative tendencies and to have suffered childhood trauma. So whilst it seems unlikely that the bizarre experiences reported by most ‘abductees’ stem from severe mental illness (which can produce equally bizarre and seemingly real experiences) it is certainly the case that this group has characteristics that differentiate them from the general population. It is possible that these dispositions may increase the tendency for them to explain an anomalous experience in terms of alien contact.

Abduction by Aliens or Sleep Paralysis?
Memory distortion
Our memories are often infuriatingly fallible, leading us to forget information we want to remember, remember information we’d rather forget, or often confidently recall something that later turns out to be inaccurate. A recent study has investigated memory distortions in people claiming to have been subject to alien capture. Participants in the study were read several lists of similarly themed words then given tests of recall and recognition. The results of the study indicated that ‘abductees’ were able to remember words from the original list as well as ‘non-abductees’, but tended to show a higher rate of recall and recognition for words that were never actually read out in the first place. This suggests that the ‘abductees’ are more likely to misidentify the source of memories, perhaps suggesting that some elements of their abduction experience may have been culled from other sources such as the media or their own imagination.
This effect may also work retrospectively, allowing people to co-opt previous memories to support an abduction account. An early memory study conducted by Frederic Bartlettdemonstrated that we reconstruct memories as they are recalled to create a coherent story. This reconstruction takes place using cultural references that give us a frame on which to hang the various remembered experiences. The alien abduction experience is well known to almost everyone, due to the popularity of shows such as the X-Files, and famous cases which have hit the headlines. This may give some people a cultural framework on which they can hang memories from a bizarre, unusual or traumatic experience. Unfortunately it is even the case that naïve or even unscrupulous therapists may push alien abduction as a explanation for a bizarre experience that a client may have undergone. Many examples of therapists willing to use hypnoticregression, a technique noted for its tendency to cause false recall, to recover abduction experiences can be found on the internet. Perhaps giving an off-the-shelf explanation for strange experiences that the brain is quite capable of generating, without the need for extra-terrestrial intervention.
Conclusion
It would certainly be foolish to discount the possibility of anything unlikely, simply because of its improbability. Yet we must also remember that we can often find explanations for anomalous experience within ourselves. As the old doctor’s adage goes ‘When you hear hoof beats, start by thinking horses not zebras’. This would seem to work as well for zebras as it does for visitors from outer-space.

Our ancient world continues to become more mysterious by the day, as 10,000 year old rock paintings depicting possible extraterrestrials and UFOs have been found in Chhattisgarh, India. These can be added to the long list of mysterious and unexplained “ancient art” that seems to lend to the belief that our ancient world and the people who lived at that time had contact with beings that did not originate from this planet.
According to archaeologist JR Bhagat, these paintings depict extraterrestrials. The Chhattisgarh state department of archaeology and culture is planning to seek the help of NASA and ISRO for research regarding the paintings.
“The findings suggest that humans in prehistoric times may have seen or imagined beings from other planets which still create curiosity among people and researchers. Extensive research is needed for further findings. Chhattisgarh presently doesn’t have any such expert who could give clarity on the subject. The paintings are done in natural colours that have hardly faded despite the years. The strangely carved figures are seen holding weapon-like objects and do not have clear features. The nose and mouth are missing, and in a few pictures they are even shown wearing spacesuits. We can’t refuse the possibility of imagination by prehistoric men but humans usually fancy such things.” – JR Bhagat (source)
According to the times of India:
“There are several beliefs among locals in these villages. While few worship the paintings, others narrate stories they have heard from ancestors about “rohela people” -the small sized ones -who used to land from the sky in a round shaped flying object and take away one or two persons in the village who never returned.” (source)
Antiquity is filled with stories of beings, materials and flying objects that, according to modern day thinking, should not have existed. For anybody who has studied ancient mythology, they would know that a large amount of evidence exists today to turn those ‘mythical stories,’ (as we interpret them) into stories of a possible ancient reality. To see more examples of that, please click HERE.
Here are some of the pictures that were found:
More Ancient Art
Ancient cave paintings depicting possible UFOs and extraterrestrials have been found all over the globe. This one (one of the earliest known forms of human art) is from the French cave of Pech Merle. In the paintings within this cave there are several objects that resemble flying saucers. The paintings here are approximately 20,000 years old, and of course we can never really know what the true meaning of the painting is, but it is interesting nonetheless.
This is a cave painting found in Kimberley, Australia. They were painted by the native Aborigines approximately 5,000 years ago. These are depictions of what they called Wandijina, or sky beings. In their tradition these beings were part of the beginning of creation, and had great power of nature. The first thing I took from this were the large heads, a common theme among today’s purported extraterrestrial visitations.
There are paintings like this all over the world. Just like there are many ancient pyramids built all over the world by different civilizations at different times that had no contact with each other, these cave paintings share the same anomaly. These are petroglyphs discovered in Utah, in the Barrier Canyon, which depict a number of tall beings with similar shaped heads as to the ones in Australia. There are also similar beings painted on rocks in Utah’s Sego Canyon.

Below are some more examples of UFO and ET depictions throughout history:
1. “The Crucifixion” hangs above the altar at the Visoki Decani Monastery in Kosovo, Yugoslavia, it was painted in 1350.
2. This image is from the 12th century manuscripts “Annales Laurissenses.”
3. From the French book “Le Livre Des Bonnes Moeurs” by Jackques Legrand, 1338
4. “The Miracle of the Snow” by Masolino Da Panicale circa 1400 from Florence, Italy
5. This image is from the 12th century manuscripts “Annales Laurissenses”
6. Broadsheet picture by Samuel Coccius illustrates many flaming and “large black globes” that were reported to have appeared in the skies over Basel, Switzerland in 1586. This one is from the Wickiana Collection, Zurich Central Library, Switzerland.
7. “The Madonna with Saint Giovanninoz” painted in the 15th century, Palazzo Vecchio lists the artist as unknown
There is strong evidence to suggest that today, we are currently being visited by intelligent extraterrestrial life.

Could 'UFO sighting' in Louth have been a drone?
Could 'UFO sighting' in Louth have been a drone?
AN APPARENT UFO sighting in Louth has prompted suggestions from readers in an attempt to explain the mystery.
As previously reported, Keith Angel, of Grimsby Road, wrote to the Telegraph to report of an apparent sighting of a UFO or low flying aircraft which “produced a deafening sound” and blew “a trail of flames”.
Mr Angel said the incident occurred between 11.30pm and midnight on Monday in the Grimsby Road area of Louth.
He said: “As I drove down Grimsby Road I heard a very loud jet engine sound above that of the car engine.
“As I arrived outside our house and opened the car door, the noise became absolutely deafening and I noticed what appeared to be aircraft navigation lights moving over the trees opposite our house and the circling above the church.
“The sound increased in volume as a trail of flame or hot exhaust gasses blasted out of the rear of the craft – similar to a jet fighter afterburner trail. This happened several times.”
After telling his story, readers have responded in their droves to try to explain the strange phenomenon.
Dave Formula said he was relieved to hear others had the same experience.
“In the many years I’ve lived in Louth I can say that I’ve never seen, or heard, anything like it,” he said.
“I was sat in the living room, at the front of my house, off Linden Walk, and this very loud and deeply vibrating sound built up and eventually appeared to be directly over the house.
“I initially assumed it was an RAF plane on an unusual evening exercise, but the way the sound enveloped the house was really very different from the regular flyovers.
“Within a couple of minutes it all began again.”
He said the craft travelled from the London Road direction over to the Cattle Market.
“I clearly saw, what to me looked like an unusual, small, single engined plane with its engine enveloped by a glowing bright orange or red mass,” he said.
“It was low in the sky and travelling surprisingly slow. I watched the ‘plane’ travel off to the extreme right of my vision and disappear.”
Amber Liles wrote to the Grimsby Telegraph to say she thought it may have been a drone after experiencing a similar incident two weeks ago.
“I was walking past the church at around 11pm, and heard a noise similar to what this person has described,” she said.
“I looked up to see small bright lights coming from something that was hovering next to the steeple.
“I too thought it was a bit odd, but when I got to the other end of the church, I found a man controlling it.”
Amy Thornton wrote on Facebook: “I’ve noticed people flying drones around Louth quite a lot. I think it might be a coincidence that the drone was hovering as planes were flying past making the noise.”
Another commented: “RAF Coningsby were night flying that night until midnight. I‘d imagine it was a Typhoon.”
A fellow reader posted: “An RAF Voyager AAR Tanker (ZZ335) was up on Monday at 11.30pm and it’s holding pattern (for several hours) skims Louth.
“On top of this there would have been aircraft meeting up with it to refuel, as well as this there was a C130 operating close to the area and the Sikorsky S92 Coast guard helicopter from Humberside ventured over Louth at 2,000ft, just past 11pm.”
The latest ‘sighting’ follows years of alleged UFO activity over the area, with some dating as far back as 1995. Details of many of them can be found in the interactive map below.

Speculation that green ball sighting at Minto was UFO
Speculation that green ball sighting at Minto was UFO
A green-lit ball similar to the UFO spotted from Minto.
IT HAD a green tinge, it looked like a large ball, it darted through the night’s sky, and has left Minto’s Laurie Porter baffled.
Mrs Porter, 61, was outside her home when she spotted an unusual object zooming through the still sky at 8pm on August 15.
It then quickly disappeared in the distance.
She is curious to know if any other residents sighted the mysterious “greenish ball”, possibly above Ingleburn, or may know what it could have been.
“The object was much larger than a star, but smaller than the moon,” Mrs Porter said. “It was not accompanied by any beam of light. It glowed extremely brightly, and its brilliance did not alter or fade at all.
“It darted about, extremely quickly, up and down, and round and round, in a varied trajectory. There was no wind or breeze.”
Mrs Porter said her and her husband only saw the object for a few minutes and did not have time to take a photograph.
“I was worried it would hit a plane as it was too big to be anything normal,” she said.
“It freaked me out but has got me intrigued. What I have described is what I saw. I haven’t lost the plot.
“My brother-in-law told me he had seen a mysterious large bright light in the sky a few weeks earlier.”
Macarthur Astronomical Society president Tony Law said he discounted the fact the object was a UFO.
“We have thousands of astronomers out every night and to my knowledge we have never had a UFO sighting,” Mr Law said.
“(Mrs Porter saw the object) during the time of the meteor shower. I would say she saw a meteorite which is a piece of rock which flashes through the sky, or it could have been a piece of space junk.
“The green tinge could have been some metal.
“We (astronomers) were out that night too and saw several bright objects in the dark sky.”

The Eerie Alaskan Pyramid Investigated - Linda Moulton Interviews a US Army Counterintelligence Agent (Video)
The Eerie Alaskan Pyramid Investigated - Linda Moulton Interviews a US Army Counterintelligence Agent (Video)
An amazing mystery that has resurfaced is the 14,000 year old pyramid unearthed in structure at Gobekli Tepi in Turkey would have been considered impossible by archaeologists.Similarly, to this day some Egyptologists dispute the true age of the Sphinx, which has been confirmed by geologists.There are many mysteries about Gobekli Tepi, chief among them the fact that its creators expended even more effort to bury it than they did to build it. Remarkably a similar pyramid was unearthed near Mount McKinley in Alaska. The video presentation below gives an astounding account of this mystery and what it means for archeology.

Bob Lazar: 25 Years After Spilling the Beans on Anti-Gravitational Flying Saucers Inside Area 51
Bob Lazar: 25 Years After Spilling the Beans on Anti-Gravitational Flying Saucers Inside Area 51
It has been 25 years to the day since a live interview with a shadowy guy named “Dennis” changed everything for America’s most secret military base.
“Dennis” turned out later to be a man named Bob Lazar, who claimed he worked at a secret facility built into a mountainside just south of Area 51’s main facilities.
Here is the latest Bob Lazar interview:
Lazar claimed to have worked in 1988 and 1989 as a physicist at S4, which was allegedly located at Papoose Lake southwest of top secret Area 51 near Groom Dry Lake, Nevada.
According to Lazar, S4 serves as a hidden military location for the study and research of extraterrestrial spacecraft, or flying saucers using reverse engineering.
Lazar says he saw nine different extraterrestrial vehicles there and has provided detailed information on the mode of propulsion and other technical details of a disc-shaped vehicle he called the sport model.

UFO sighting in Sussex ‘excites’ expert
UFO sighting in Sussex ‘excites’ expert
Possible UFO sighted close to Shoreham on Saturday
A SPEEDING UFO was seemingly spotted following in the wake of the RAF Vulcan which flew through Sussex on Saturday (July 15).
Elaine Costello captured the image on Saturday afternoon, just moments after the decommissioned military jet passed overhead.
It shows a small, black object, speeding through the sky, close to the Shoreham Power Station, in Southwick.
Elaine said: “The object appears right after the Vulcan bomber has gone out of sight. It flits from the left of the screen to the centre where the video ends.

“I have slowed the video down and the object goes behind cloud briefly. I took stills from the video and zoomed in. The results are interesting. At least one other person saw the object.”
The images have since been shown to one of Sussex’s top UFO and paranormal investigators, who was ‘excited’ by the footage.

Malcolm Robinson, is the founder of Strange Phenomena Investigations, and has spoken about UFO phenomena at conventions across the globe.
Mr Robinson, who lives in Hastings, East Sussex, said that 95 per cent of all UFO reports turn out to have ‘natural explanations’.
He claimed that about four per cent of the reports could be accredited to a combination of ‘black budget’ stealth aircraft and rare, atmospheric phenomenon.
“The one per cent that remain, is for me, personally something which is not of this world,” he said, “The weight of evidence that I and others have gathered over the years clearly show that we are dealing with a very real and bona fide phenomenon.”
This for me, is one of the few times that a photograph have excited me and I would love to enquire more from the photographer.

Speaking of the image captured by Elaine, he said: “It certainly has the classic flying saucer shape although that in itself does not mean that it lends any credibility.
“Photographs of this nature normally show birds frozen in flight by the camera or a small insect close to the lens of the camera. But as the photographer filmed this as a pan then this certainly makes it far more interesting to me.”
He questioned whether the image could have captured a unmanned aerial vehicle or drone.
He added that the claim there were other witnesses to the incident was ‘equally interesting’.
“This for me, is one of the few times that a photograph have excited me and I would love to enquire more from the photographer,” he said.
Mr Robinson has appeared in numerous newspaper and radio interviews.

Former Canadian Minister of Defense Says: we have to be careful when dealing with Alien beings, we Could trigger An Internstellar war
Former Canadian Minister of Defense Says: we have to be careful when dealing with Alien beings, we Could trigger An Internstellar war
According to former Canadian Minister of Defense, we have to be careful when dealing with Alien beings, we could trigger an Interstellar war.
It looks like we need to watch what we are doing on Planet Earth. Former Canadian minister of defense Paul Hellyer has explicitly warned our military units to avoid shooting at UFOs.
As Minister of Defence, he oversaw the drastic and controversial integration and unification of the Royal Canadian Navy, Canadian Army, and the Royal Canadian Air Force into a single organization, the Canadian Forces. His position gave him access to several classified documents among which were those about Extraterrestrial life and UFOs.
Hellyer believes that Extraterrestrial species have visited our planet for thousands of years.
Hellyer firmly believes that we are not the only intelligent species in the cosmos and believes that Earth has been visited by Extraterrestrial beings for thousands of years. Hellyer, a former politician, writer and commentator believes that alien beings still walk among us today.
During one of his interviews where he spoke about alien life and UFOs, Hellyer stated:
“[…]there were about 50 UFOs in formation flying south from Russia across Europe, and Supreme Allied Command was very concerned and about ready to push the ‘Panic’ button when they turned around and went back over the North Pole.”
“They decided to do an investigation and they investigated for 3 years and they decided that, with absolute certainty, four species – at least – had been visiting our planet for thousands of years.”
Just like Edgar Mitchell, the former defense minister believes that alien beings are very interested in our weapons of mass destruction, such as the nuclear bomb. Hellyer believes that UFO activity on Earth has drastically increased ever since we first tested the “Atomic bomb.” The first nuclear device ever detonated was an implosion-type bomb at the Trinity test, conducted at New Mexico’s Alamogordo Bombing and Gunnery Range on 16 July 1945.
Hellyer believes that the testing and use of weapons of mass destruction has caught the attention of extraterrestrial civilizations across the cosmos.
“They are very much afraid that we might be stupid enough to start using atomic weapons again, and this would be very bad for us and for them as well.”
There are dozens of extraterrestrial races out there. Most of them are extremely advanced technologically.
The former defense minister believes that there are many species that inhabit the cosmos: “There are about 80 different species and some of them look just like us and they could walk down the street and you wouldn’t know if you walked past one. They are what we call ‘Nordic blondes’ and also the Tall Whites who were actually working with the US Air Force in Nevada.”
“Then there’s the Short Greys as they are called, and they are the ones you see in most of the cartoons, they have very-very slim arms and legs, they are very short, just a little over 5 feet, and they have a great big head and great big brown eyes.”
Each species is, according to Hellyer, unique having its own agenda. Some of them look like us, while other species are totally different. Each one of them thinks differently.
But Hellyer also believes that the majority of extraterrestrial species that has visited Earth are benign and that these species are here to help us develop as a civilization.
“I would say that nearly all are benign and benevolent and they do want to help us, there may be one or two species which do not. That’s one of the things I’m investigating at the moment, to see who they are, what they are up to and what their agendas really are.”
UFO sightings have doubled since we have started testing and using nuclear weapons.
We cannot forget that our inferior technology is something to think about when approaching aliens. If these beings have the ability of interstellar travel, huge spaceships that defy known physics, then they certainly must have extremely advanced weaponry. We should exercise caution when dealing with aliens. But just how cautious do we have to be? Is an “Alien invasion” upon us?
“I think it’s a possibility,” says Hellyer. “But it’s a possibility especially if we shoot down every UFO that comes into our airspace without asking who they are and what they want. Right from the beginning we started scrambling planes, trying to shoot them down, but their technology was superior enough that we weren’t able to get away with it, certainly not for a long while.”
“During that period of time they could have taken us over without any trouble if they wanted to, so I think, rather than developing our own Star Wars to protect ourselves against them, we should work with the benign species that are of a vast majority and work together, and rely largely on them, of course, and cooperate, so that we would be contributing something at the same time; I don’t think there’s any point in us developing a galactic force that would tempt us to ride on our own and get into mischief, which is one of the things that some of them are concerned about.”
Hellyer believes that different Alien species are interacting between them, and even though most of them have their own interest, they share a similar goal.
“they may be interacting between themselves – I suspect that they are because there is what is called a ‘Federation’ of these people and they have rules. For example, one of the rules is that they don’t interfere with our affairs unless they are invited to – and that’s one of the reasons, probably, that we haven’t seem more of them until very recently…”
According to Hellyer, Extraterrestrial beings are very concerned about the future of mankind:
“They don’t want to tell us how to run our affairs, they have accepted the fact that this is our planet, and that we have the right to run it, but they are very concerned: they don’t think we are good stewards of our planet, we’re clear cutting our forests, we’re polluting our rivers and our lakes, and we’re dumping sewage in the oceans, and we’re doing all sorts of things which are not what good stewards of their homes should be doing.”
But we have been given a chance, a chance to do better, a chance to learn from our mistakes and a chance to take care of our planet which is very unique. Hellyer added:
“The Cosmos is based on free choice. We’re given the option of making mistakes, of making wrong choices, and I guess, what bothers some of us, is that we’ve made too many wrong choices, and not enough right choices.”
“So we’re going to have to start switching our priorities and stop spending so much time and effort on weapons to kill each other, or to dominate each other, and spend a lot more time on how to help each other to have a better life and a more just society, and life which is healthier.”
“Our future as a species, and here I mean all of the species in the world, is potentially at risk if we don’t figure what’s going on and work together and try to make life more amenable for all of us, and to work with our neighbors from other planets as well.”
