• Mainstream UFO disclosure has taken off over the past couple of years. Major media outlets like the New York Times and CNN have covered the topic, and those who rely on these outlets for information are now becoming aware of the fact that there are objects in our atmosphere performing maneuvers that no known man made piece of machinery can match.
• Could this be part of some sort of deception? Is the global elite using advanced technology to suddenly promote the existence of UFOs in order to stage some sort of false flag alien invasion? Would governments working with malevolent extraterrestrials create this false perception to help usher in a “New World Order”?
• The idea of a New World Order is that there is a conspiracy to create a new totalitarian world government that would not benefit people as a whole. There’s no doubt that issues like the COVID pandemic, climate change, geopolitical conflict, and the “war on terror” have been manufactured, used and perpetuated by those who would propose the solution that benefits them the most. There has been, and continues to be, an ongoing push for a state of fear and a world of chaos. This in turn leads to “big brother” tracking and surveillance of citizens, and installing laws and reforms for our “protection”, that steadily strip us of our rights and freedoms.
• The UFO phenomenon is different. The UFO phenomenon was not manufactured by a global elite. It is a real phenomenon that was merely hijacked and manipulated by them. For decades, UFOs were officially ridiculed and labeled a “conspiracy theory” by the CIA. Why would the government spend so much time and resources claiming all footage of UFOs are fake and that those who believe in them are all nuts, when now they want to convince the population that they are real? It doesn’t make any sense and points to a more complex situation.
• There are people out there, as with all other issues, that would like to use the UFO phenomenon and shape the mass perception of it. They very well could want to present the phenomenon as a threat to humanity, although these objects do not represent this narrative at all. This is the deception. And it is quite irrational to assume that all of the UFO activity we see is some sort of fake deception or hologram. The idea that there are only malevolent beings working with governments to enslave humanity also goes against a wealth of information and data that’s been collected by researchers over the years.
• One thing we can all agree on is the fact that mainstream media and government cannot be trusted nor relied upon for any accurate information on almost any topic. Government and mainstream media have become tools of perception manipulation regarding real issues, events and phenomenon.
• Because the ‘truth movement’ often cannot agree on a narrative, “conspiracies within conspiracies” have developed without any appropriate sources or evidence to back them up. This gives those within the “mainstream” the ability to label all those within the ‘truth movement’ as ‘conspiracy theorists’ and discredit them quite easily. We have to be careful pushing a narrative as truth, especially if we are trying to reach those “within” the mainstream. We must not discard the importance of evidence and data to support our claims, elevating it beyond simple speculation.
Many of you reading this are probably well aware of the fact that mainstream UFO disclosure is taking off, and has been taking off over the past couple of years. Major media outlets like the New York Times and CNN have covered the topic with extreme legitimacy, and given the fact that much of the public relies on these outlets for information, they are now becoming aware of the fact that there are objects in our atmosphere performing maneuvers that no known man made piece of machinery can.
American patriots simply want the truth
This seems strange to many, however, every time we (Collective Evolution) post an article, there is no shortage of comments stating that all of this is some sort of deception. That either the global elite are staging sightings using some sort of advanced technology in order to prepare for some sort of false flag alien invasion, or that governments are working with malevolent extraterrestrials to do so, both options seem to be for the same purpose which would be to help usher in the “New World Order.” These are the claims.
If anything, based on my research these objects are very real, there is not much evidence that they represent a malevolent force, and that governments and mainstream media may twist our perception of the phenomenon to help bring about aspects of what some call “The New World Order.”
The idea of a “New World Order” has been a common theme within multiple subjects. In essence, the idea of a New World Order is that there is a conspiracy to create a new totalitarian world government that would not benefit people as a whole. It includes the rollout of measures under the guise of goodwill to combat “problems” our world is facing. Proponents of the New World Order theory believe that many of these problems, like climate change and COVID, are manufactured and/or used to justify more surveillance. It also includes a digital world armed with more tracking, surveillance, and the acquisition of data from all citizens, as well as the rollout of various laws and reforms that continually lead us to a world where many of our rights and freedoms are stripped from us. Again, all of this under the guise of goodwill and for “our protection.”
With the current COVID ‘crisis’, many believe “New World Order” has been replaced with “The Great Reset.” Right now, rights and freedoms that we once enjoyed are not accessible to many, and luxuries like travel and attending public entertainment venues may require a vaccine. These, and many more are all aspects of this New World Order according to many.

• Combing through thousands of reports in a searchable digital archive operated by the Canadian government known as the Civil Aviation Daily Occurrence Report System (CADORS), VICE World News has uncovered dozens of recent UFO sightings from Canadian and international airlines. With over three decades of data, CADORS contains nearly 300,000 aviation incident reports on everything from mechanical failures to rowdy passengers to bird strikes. It also provides a fascinating record of UFO sightings by professional aviators in Canadian airspace.
• “Pilots are probably not reporting about 90 per cent of the things they’re seeing, because they know it could have lengthy career implications,” says former Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) pilot John “Jock” Williams, an aviation consultant, television commentator, and civilian pilot who spent 36 years in the Canadian military, including over two decades flying fighter jets. “For most pilots, it’s not worth it. That’s why I believe that each of these guys saw what they reported.”
• On the morning of May 30, 2016, an Air Canada Express flight from Montreal to Toronto reported it had “crossed an unidentified flying object, round in shape, flying at an approximate speed of 300kts,” or more than 550 km/h.
• On November 14, 2016, two Porter Airlines crew members were injured when their plane dove to avoid hitting an “object” that “appeared to be solid… and shaped like an upright doughnut or inner tube” 8,000 feet above Lake Ontario.
• On the night of March 16, 2017, a pair of WestJet flights near British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley reported “a bright, white strobe-type light” above them.
• On January 10, 2015, “multiple aircraft reported a very large object with a small white light in the middle, surrounded by a halo” that “appeared to descend from above” 41,000 feet just outside Regina, Saskatchewan.
• On Oct. 21, 2005, air traffic controllers received reports from four aircraft flight crews of a shiny, silver object over Toronto at roughly 30,000 feet which turned sharply and moved rapidly to the southeast over Lake Ontario.
• On Nov. 12, 2015, an undisclosed flight reported “a bright white light high above the aircraft”, 34,000 feet above Saskatchewan, and advised “it was not a meteorite or other aircraft.”
• On Dec. 18, 2016, a Qatar Airways flight south of Grande Prairie, Alberta reported an unidentified flying object in broad daylight in an account that offers no further visual clues. A Canadian government spokesperson said it is “not in a position to discuss individual aviators’ observations.” “The events that are entered into CADORS are entered as they are reported to Transport Canada,” the spokesperson said.
• On November 14, 2016, a morning Porter Airlines flight from Ottawa to Toronto’s downtown island airport reported ‘flying by’ a doughnut-like object “approximately 5 to 8 feet in diameter” that was “directly ahead on their flight path” over Lake Ontario, and “not likely a balloon”. The “captain overrode the autopilot in order to quickly descend the aircraft under the object.” The plane’s two flight attendants, who “were in the process of securing the cabin for arrival… received minor injuries when they were thrown into the cabin structure.”
• On the night of December 26, 2019, two separate Air Canada and Air Canada Jazz flights over British Columbia reported “sighting up to 2 dozen evenly-spaced bright objects in a line, travelling quickly at an altitude above their aircraft.” It was quickly identified as an earlier sighting of SpaceX’s Starlink internet satellites, which travel in groups in comparatively low orbits.
• On April 30, 2018, a Boeing 747 cargo flight reported “an object flying sporadically, estimated at (60 to 80 thousand feet) and moving at Mach 4,” or four times the speed of sound, as it travelled above the Northwest Territories on its way from New York to Alaska.
• On the morning of December 15, 2009, air traffic controllers in Fort McMurray, Alberta spotted a “solid bright light” that traveled “too fast to be any commercial aircraft” as it “moved in a southerly direction initially, then continued eastbound until it disappeared into the sunrise.” An Air Canada Jazz flight was even “delayed on departure for about four minutes until the object was well east of the aircraft’s departure path.”
• On January 6, 2019, the crew of a Vanguard Air Care medical transporter said “an inexplicable bright light followed them… at the same altitude and speed” over northern Manitoba when “no aircraft were reported in their vicinity.”
• A Transport Canada spokesperson said, “Reports of unidentified objects can rarely be followed up on as they are as the title implies, unidentified.” Of the eleven reports mentioned in this story, at least seven of them were forwarded to the military by air traffic controllers. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) tracks similar observations in the U.S., but often labels them as drones.
• According to researcher and filmmaker Matthew Hayes, there is a “very high degree of consistency” between the reports found in CADORS and the ones he uncovered for his 2019 doctoral dissertation on Canada’s Cold War UFO records. “Canadians have been reporting the same types of things, unabated, since the 1940s,” Hayes said. “Historically, it’s also been incredibly challenging to get the Canadian government to talk about this. Compare that with the U.S., where officials seem much more eager and ready to discuss the topic.”
• Veteran Canadian UFO investigator Chris Rutkowski has collected more than 22,000 UFO reports over the past three decades and has long included data from CADORS in his annual Canadian UFO Survey. “CADORS clearly shows that these types of incidents are occurring in airspace where thousands of passengers are potentially travelling every day,” Rutkowski told VICE World News. “Regardless of one’s belief or disbelief in UFOs, this is certainly a concern from a flight safety and public welfare perspective.”
On the morning of May 30, 2016, an Air Canada Express flight from Montreal to Toronto reported it had “crossed an unidentified flying object, round in shape, flying at an approximate speed of 300kts,” or more than 550 km/h. Over 8,000 feet above Lake Ontario on Nov. 14 of that year, two crew members were injured when a Porter Airlines plane dove to avoid hitting an “object” that “appeared to be solid… and shaped like an upright doughnut or inner tube.”
By combing through thousands of reports in a government flight incident database, VICE World News has uncovered dozens of recent UFO sightings from Canadian and international airlines.

The sightings come from the Civil Aviation Daily Occurrence Report System (CADORS), a searchable digital archive operated by Transport Canada, the federal department that oversees road, rail, marine, and air transportation. With over three

decades of data, CADORS contains nearly 300,000 aviation incident reports on everything from mechanical failures to rowdy passengers to bird strikes. It also provides a fascinating record of UFO sightings by professional aviators in Canadian airspace.
“Pilots are probably not reporting about 90 per cent of the things they’re seeing, because they know it could have lengthy career implications,” former Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) pilot John “Jock” Williams told VICE World News.
Williams is an aviation consultant, television commentator, and civilian pilot who spent 36 years in the Canadian military, including over two decades flying fighter jets. He also worked as a flight safety officer at Transport Canada for more than a dozen years.
“For most pilots, it’s not worth it,” Williams said. “That’s why I believe that each of these guys saw what they reported.”
Although brief, CADORS cases can still be enigmatic, such as a single-sentence entry from the morning of Oct. 21, 2005, when air traffic controllers “received reports from four (4) aircraft flight crews of a shiny, silver object over Toronto at roughly (30,000 feet), which turned sharply and moved rapidy [sic] to the southeast over Lake Ontario.” Many are scant on detail, like one from the night of Nov. 12, 2015, when an undisclosed flight 34,000 feet above Saskatchewan reported “a bright white light high above the aircraft and advised it was not a meteorite or other aircraft.” Very few explicitly use terms like “UFO,” such as a Qatar Airways flight south of Grande Prairie, Alberta, that “reported an unidentified flying object” in broad daylight on Dec. 18, 2016 in an account that offers no visual clues.

• When NASA’s Perseverance rover landed on Mars on February 18th, it brought along various high-tech devices such as the Ingenuity mini-helicopter and the ‘Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment’ or ‘MOXIE’. As the atmosphere on Mars reportedly has only trace amounts of oxygen, securing an abundant supply of oxygen is crucial to supporting human exploration of the planet, both as a sustainable source of breathable air for astronauts and as an ingredient for rocket fuel that would fly them home. This is where MOXIE comes in.
• In another extraterrestrial first, the toaster-sized MOXIE produced about 5 grams of breathable oxygen, converted from the carbon dioxide in Mars’ atmosphere. This marks the first time that a resource was extracted from another planet for use by humans. “This is a critical first step,” said Jim Reuter, associate administrator of NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate. “MOXIE has more work to do, but the results from this technology demonstration are full of promise as we move toward our goal of one day seeing humans on Mars.”
• In the future, the MOXIE device will be able to generate up to 10 grams of oxygen per hour, which equals about 20 minutes of breathable oxygen. The NASA scientists plan to run the machine at least another nine times over the next two years under different conditions and speeds. Astronauts living and working on Mars could require one metric ton of oxygen between them to last an entire year.
• MOXIE works through electrolysis, using extreme heat to separate oxygen atoms from carbon dioxide molecules, which account for about 95% of the atmosphere on Mars. The remaining 5% of Mars’ atmosphere consists primarily of molecular nitrogen and argon.
• “MOXIE isn’t just the first instrument to produce oxygen on another world,” said Trudy Kortes, director of technology demonstrations within NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate. It is the first such technology to help future missions “live off the land” of another planet.

oxygen, marking another extraterrestrial first for the space agency, NASA officials said.
The Perseverance rover extracted the oxygen using a toaster-sized device called MOXIE, marking the first time that a resource was extracted from another planet for use by humans.
“This is a critical first step,” Jim Reuter, associate administrator of NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate, said in a statement. “MOXIE has more work to do, but the results from this technology demonstration are full of promise as we move toward our goal of one day seeing humans on Mars.”

In its first use, MOXIE, short for Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment, produced about 5 grams of oxygen. This is enough for one astronaut to breathe for about 10 minutes, NASA said.
In the future, the device will be able to generate up to 10 grams of oxygen per hour, and scientists plan to run the machine at least another nine times over the next two years under different conditions and speeds, according to the agency.

• In 2019, the Space Development Agency (SDA) was charged with developing the National Defense Space Architecture for second generation US satellite communications in low earth orbit. “The whole idea is to be able to move data as rapidly as possible to get that tactical information directly to the war fighter,” said SDA Director Derek Tournear.
• The backbone of the architecture is the ‘transport layer’ – an orbital mesh network of hundreds of satellites connected through optical intersatellite links. The transport layer will be the glue that will connect the military services’ various combined networks allowing the DoD to rapidly move data through space directly to existing tactical data links on a weapons platform or on a weapon itself.
• SDA will use a ‘spiral development’ approach to build out the space architecture, putting up new satellites every two years. The first set of 28 satellites will begin launching in 2022. The next set of 150 satellites, to be launched in 2024, will be an operational system to provide a war fighter immersion capability. “That’s our initial war fighting capability,” said Tournear. “[W]e want those (communications) crosslinks to not only be satellite to satellite, but satellite to air, satellite to ground, and satellite to air and maritime assets…”
• The agency is working with several companies to ensure their satellites can connect to the transport layer via optical intersatellite links. Those commercial satellites will form the custody layer, an intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capability that will provide overhead satellite imagery for tactical targeting. The agency is also talking with commercial services that could provide high bandwidth data backhaul in case the architecture was disabled.
• On April 16th, SDA issued a request for information seeking industry feedback on an optical communication standard. The third set of satellites will “fold in the lessons learned … any new technology that’s been developed, and any new threats that have come online,” said Tournear. He expects Space Force systems to connect to the transport layer via optical intersatellite links, and commercial capabilities are expected to tie in even sooner. Responses to the optical communications RFI are due by April 30th, and the transport layer satellites are expected to be ordered this summer.
WASHINGTON — Before its first satellites are on orbit, the Space Development
Director Derek Tournear
Agency is reaching out to industry for feedback on how it should upgrade its communications standards for its second generation of satellites.
Established in 2019, the agency was charged with developing the National Defense Space Architecture, a proliferated constellation to eventually be made up of hundreds of satellites mostly operating in low Earth orbit. The backbone of the architecture is the transport layer, a mesh network on orbit connected through optical intersatellite links. The transport layer will allow the DoD to rapidly move data through space, and will be the glue that will connect the services’ various Combined Joint All Domain Command and Control networks.
“The whole idea is to be able to move data as rapidly as possible to get that tactical information directly to the war fighter,” said SDA Director Derek Tournear at the annual C4ISRNET Conference. “So what the transport layer consists of are hundreds of satellites that form a resilient optically interconnected mesh network that will pass data directly to existing tactical data links. So what that means to the war fighter is the following: I can now move data from a targeting cell that could be located CONUS or ideally that targeting cell will actually form a target onboard on the satellites and I can send that data down directly to an existing tactical data link on a weapons platform or on a weapon itself.”
SDA is using a spiral development approach to build out the NDSA, putting up new tranches of satellites every two years. The first set of 28 satellites — tranche 0 — will begin launching in 2022 and provide a war fighter immersion capability. Tranche 1 will have closer to 150 satellites and will be an operational system.

• The Society of Catholic Scientists has scheduled their 2021 SCS conference entitled: “E.T., A.I., and Minds Beyond the Human” to be live-streamed June 4th thru 6th from Washington D.C. A full range of education and theology experts will give thirteen talks, and half of the talks are going to be about extraterrestrial life. “There’s going to be talks by some big experts on [the ET] subject,” says society president Dr Stephen Barr.
• According to Dr Barr, the conference’s goal is to address the perceived stigma that science and religion don’t mix. “[T]here are many people out there who think that science and faith are incompatible,” he said. “I think if people see that there’s a large organization of a large number of scientists, [who are] devout, practicing Catholics, I think it has a witness value and is stronger evidence for people in the science department.”
• “There’s a lot of excitement because in recent years, astronomers have discovered large numbers of planets orbiting other nearby stars,” said Dr Barr. “They could learn a lot about these planets, how far they are from the star, how big the planet is, even things about the chemistry of the planet in some cases.”
• The speakers scheduled to talk about non-human intelligence include Astrophysicist Jonathan Lunine, director of the Cornell Center for Astrophysics and Planetary Science; Dr. Karin Öberg, professor of Astronomy and Director of Undergraduate Studies at Harvard University; Simon Conway Morris, who is the chair of Evolutionary Palaeobiology at the University of Cambridge; and Christopher Baglow, Director of the Science and Religion Initiative of the McGrath Institute for Church Life of the University of Notre Dame.
• [Editor’s Note] See a preview of the Genomics and Human Engineering discussion with Dr. Laurel Coons below.
The Society of Catholic Scientists has scheduled their 2021 SCS conference, and this year’s topic is literally out of this world.
Titled “E.T., A.I., and Minds Beyond the Human,” the conference will be held at the Hilton Hotel in Washington D.C. from June 4th thru 6th. It will feature a full range of education and theology experts covering topics related to the theme.
“There’ll be 13 talks,” said Dr. Stephen Barr, president of the Society of Catholic Scientists, in an interview with the Catholic News Agency (CNA).” Half of the talks are going to be about extraterrestrial life, and there’s going to be talks by some big experts on that subject.”
Among the speakers scheduled to talk about the entire range of possible non-human intelligence are Astrophysicist Jonathan Lunine, director of the Cornell Center for Astrophysics and Planetary Science; Dr. Karin Öberg, professor of Astronomy and Director of Undergraduate Studies at Harvard University; Simon Conway Morris, who is the chair of Evolutionary Palaeobiology at the University of Cambridge; and Christopher Baglow, Director of the Science and Religion Initiative of the McGrath Institute for Church Life of the University of Notre Dame.

• This is a “most exciting time” to be involved in the private commercial space industry, Steve Isakowitz, CEO of The Aerospace Corporation and former president of Virgin Galactic, told attendees of the America’s Future Series Space Innovation Summit on April 6th and 7th. “I do think there’s opportunities for everybody to participate in the excitement … [and] it’s a great opportunity for the government to really lean in on looking for those public-private partnerships.”
• But Isakowitz says that private and government organizations must do more to tap the next generation of US space workers. “We need to do more [to] expand the candidate pool. We’ve got to make sure that all of America has the benefit of being part of the… opportunities that are out there.”
• The Aerospace Corporation, a federally-funded research and development center and non-profit based in El Segundo, California, focuses on analysis and assessment of space programs for organizations, including NASA, the Air Force’s Space and Missile Systems Center, and the National Reconnaissance Office.
• A report released by The Aerospace Corp urges space industry companies to partner with teachers and educators to focus more on science, tech, engineering and math disciplines. “I think that involves really looking at the curriculum that we teach our students to kind of draw their interest in. We often see that when you go into elementary schools there’s a lot of interest in these fields and the technical fields — and then it sort of drops off pretty quickly when they get into the middle school in high school years,” Isakowitz said.
• Isakowitz noted that internships, apprenticeships and fellowships have been essential to bringing students in and giving them hands-on experience. The Brooke Owens Fellowship helps place undergraduate women at space ventures and the Patti Grace Smith Fellowship helps black students find internships.
• Space Talent is a job board hosted by the investment group Space Capital, listing more than 3,600 openings at space infrastructure companies building spacecraft, rockets and more. Those job openings include a range of disciplines, from accounting to IT, design, manufacturing and more.
• A wave of investment by the private sector is “really driving a lot of the changes we’re now seeing in space,” says Isakowitz, and has given rise to a new generation of private space companies such as Elon Musk’s SpaceX. And according to Isakowitz, this entrepreneurial climate has also brought with it “a new ability to attract the kind of talent and excitement we need to really bring folks into this industry.”
The growth of space businesses makes this “the most exciting time” to be involved in the

industry, but one CEO says private and government organizations must do more to tap the next generation of U.S. workers.
“I do think there’s opportunities for everybody to participate in the excitement … [and] it’s a great opportunity for the government to really lean in on looking for those public-private partnerships,” Steve Isakowitz, CEO of The Aerospace Corporation and former president of Virgin Galactic, told attendees of the America’s Future Series Space Innovation Summit. The event ran on April 6 and 7.
“We need to do more and expand the candidate pool — we’ve got to make sure that all of America has the benefit of being part of the STEM, K-12, opportunities that are out there,” he added, referring to the academic discipline that includes science, tech, engineering and math.
The Aerospace Corporation, based in El Segundo, California, is a federally-funded research and development center and non-profit.
The corporation focuses on analysis and assessment of space programs for organizations, including NASA, the Air Force’s Space and Missile Systems Center, and the National Reconnaissance Office.
Isakowitz’s comments coincided with The Aerospace Corp’s release of a report titled “Developing Future Space Workers.” From the report, he highlighted that he believes the space industry can partner with teachers and underrepresented groups.

Article by Avi Loeb April 15, 2021 (scientificamerican.com)
• Earth has been broadcasting radio waves into space for over a century, announcing our presence to any other technological civilizations within a hundred light-years that might monitor their sky with radio telescopes similar to ours. Our saving grace might be that these extraterrestrials may use chemical rockets, similar to our own, which would take them a million years to traverse that hundred light years to our doorstep.
• If extraterrestrials did arrive at our doorstep, how should we respond? There is no United Nations international protocol outlining what to do. Is it premature to contemplate a global policy long before it is required? How much advance warning will we have? Any alien spacecraft would at least reflect sunlight which we could detect from earth-based telescopes such as the Pan-STARRS observatory in Hawaii.
• The first interstellar visitor discovered by Pan-STARRS observatory was on October 19, 2017. It was named ‘Oumuamua’ or “scout” in the Hawaiian language. The object showed many anomalous properties that made it different from any natural comet or asteroid that we had witnessed before in the solar system, allowing for the possibility that it could be a product of alien technology, as the article’s author, Avi Loeb (pictured above), discusses in his new book, Extraterrestrial. The likelihood that the object was a probe intended to spy on us is small because Oumuamua more than 10,000 years to traverse the solar system to get here. We have only been transmitting radio signals for over a hundred years.
• Even if ‘Oumuamua’ is an artificial craft, it is ancient and likely too old to be functional. But we can learn a great deal from inspecting and photographing such relics, whether tumbling through our galaxy or resting on the surface of the Moon or Mars where such unusual objects may have collected over billions of years. The lack of an atmosphere or geological activity would make the moon’s surface, in particular, like a museum of extraterrestrial equipment.
• We should keep our eyes open and searching through our telescopes for unusual objects, taking precaution about a vessel possibly masquerading as a Trojan Horse. There might be many small, fast-moving objects traveling through the solar system or other anomalies that we fail to recognize given the limited sensitivity of our telescopes. We could search for them in data streams generated by the Large Survey of Space and Time (LSST) on the Vera C. Rubin observatory.
• Gravitational waves were discovered by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) only after the National Science Foundation (NSF) invested $1.1 billion into it. Similarly, we should expect to find extraordinary evidence for ETs only after we invest major funds in a search. Taxpayer funding would be appropriate given the major impact that such discoveries would have on society—far exceeding the implication of discovering gravitational waves.
• Putting our hands on a piece of alien technology would change the way we perceive our place in the universe, our aspirations for space and our philosophical and theological beliefs. Or we could choose to stay ignorant about our neighbors until they show up. The possible existence of ETs will not go away if we ignore them, just like the Earth continued to move around the sun after religious authorities refused to look through Galileo’s telescope. The dinosaurs dominated the planet until the giant Chicxulub rock showed up in the sky 66 million years ago. We need to be watchful for the next ‘earth shattering’ encounter.
Avi Loeb peering through a telescope
When you’re in an unexplored wilderness, you’d better be quiet, because you never
Galileo peering through a telescope
know whether there might be dangerous predators lurking.
Unfortunately, Earth has not been following this cautionary principle so far: we’ve been broadcasting radio waves into space for more than a century. If there are technological civilizations within a hundred light-years that monitor their sky with radio telescopes similar to ours, then they may already know about our existence. We could hear from them in the future. Our saving grace might be that chemical rockets, similar to those used in the Voyager or New Horizons missions, would take a million
Oumuamua
years to traverse that hundred light years. And so, we might be out for prolonged suspense before encountering our cosmic neighbors.
If extraterrestrials eventually arrive at our doorstep, the question is: how should we respond? Clearly, interstellar affairs are not an imminent policy concern for any nation at this moment, so there is no international protocol issued by the United
Pan-STARRS observatory in Hawaii
Nations for what to do. We should keep in mind that within a million years, humans might reside on the moon, Mars or free-floating space platforms, and each community might choose to respond differently. It is premature to contemplate a global policy long before it is required.
Vera C. Rubin observatory in Chile
How much advance warning will we have? That depends on the size of the vehicle used by the ETs. Even without generating artificial light, any alien spacecraft would reflect sunlight. The Pan-STARRS observatory in Hawaii can detect reflected sunlight from objects bigger than a few hundred feet, the scale of a football field, that pass within the orbit of the Earth around the sun.The first interstellar visitor of such size was discovered by this telescope on October 19, 2017, and named ‘Oumuamua—“scout” in the Hawaiian language. The object showed many anomalous properties that made it different from any natural comet or asteroid that we had witnessed before in the solar system, allowing for the possibility that it is a product of alien technology, as discussed in my new book, Extraterrestrial.

On April 30, Elena Danaan, a former professional archeologist whose claims of contact with extraterrestrials from the Galactic Federation of Worlds have gained widespread attention, delivered a bombshell report about an ongoing series of military raids on Mars that aim to destroy the bases of a rival extraterrestrial alliance: the Draconian Empire and the Orion Collective. These extraterrestrial bases were created to suppress the indigenous Mars population; manage the operations of human colonists associated with a German breakaway group called the Dark Fleet (aka Nacht Waffen); and oversee major Earth corporations that have relocated to Mars.
According to Elena, the Galactic Federation has begun helping liberate Mars from the influence of the Draconians and Orions by supporting indigenous Martians with supplies, weapons, and tactical information. The Federation has also been assisting a local resistance movement that exists in the human colonies that have been established on Mars.
While providing logistical and tactical support to local resistance forces, the Galactic Federation has been using its advanced technologies to incapacitate Reptilian and Orion extraterrestrials, thereby enabling the Martian resistance to strike against their extraterrestrial overlords and human minions.

In order to better understand Elena’s report, I thought it would be helpful to provide a brief background on Mars and its recent history in terms of covert human colonization and historic resistance by an indigenous Martian population.
The colonization of Mars began in the 1950s when the Draconian and Orion Alliance helped the breakaway German colony that had established bases in Antarctica and the Moon establish the first German bases on Mars, using advanced Haunebu flying saucer craft that initially made up the Dark Fleet.
As a result of agreements between the Eisenhower admiexnistration and the German Antarctica Colony (aka Fourth Reich), the Dark Fleet’s bases on Mars were significantly expanded. Most importantly, the US military provided the Dark Fleet with nuclear weapons that were used against the indigenous Martian population comprising local Reptilians, Insectoids, and other less evolved species that resisted the German colonial expansion and the Draconian and Orion incursions.
With the famous brain drain of the 1960s and 1970s, launched under the cover of the US Apollo Program, the Dark Fleet presence on Mars grew substantially. Millions of people–many of whom were taken from Earth under false pretenses—expanded the German colonies and created new ones in conjunction with major Earth corporations.
These new corporate-run colonies have been called the Interplanetary Corporate Conglomerate and they are run by a ‘superboard’ comprising retired or serving CEOs from major corporations. The relocation program to Mars has apparently been greatly accelerated over the last few months as the Deep State is on the verge of a major collapse on Earth. This has led to a major exodus by compromised officials, as discussed in my previous article commenting on Elena’s information.
The Mars colonies were equipping mercenary forces recruited from all major countries on Earth to join the Dark Fleet for distinct periods of service. The infusion of personnel, equipment, and resources enabled the Dark Fleet to expand its operations significantly.
Soon the Dark Fleet had powerful fleets of spacecraft with well-armed troops that could fight alongside, or on behalf of, Reptilian and Orion extraterrestrials in interstellar wars of conquest. This meant that the bulk of the Dark Fleet’s operational forces, at any one time, would be located outside of our solar system. This brief background provides the necessary context to better understand Elena’s stunning report.
What follows is my transcript of her report which was delivered verbally and is available on YouTube. Elena’s report begins:
April 30, 2021, the date of the situation [report] on Mars given by Commander Thor Han Eredyon from the Galactic Federation of Worlds. Raids from the Galactic Federation are continuing by a series of Mars raids on the Reptilian facilities. The Martian resistance has been armed and enforced and helped by the Federation and they are fighting the Reptilian occupants and all their allies, and in their allies, there is also an outpost for the Dark Fleet in Mars as well, but not only, there are earth militaries there belonging to other corporations. There is a lot of corporations on Mars that sought refuge there and that had moved, relocated recently because it was starting to smell bad on earth. The alliance was starting to win over them by all their work in the DUMBs (the military’s underground). So now what’s happening on Mars, still attacks from the Galactic Federation. The Ciakahrrs are totally pissed off.
Elena is here pointing out that the Galactic Federation is helping the Martian resistance, comprising humans, local Reptilians, and other indigenous groups, against the Draco Reptilians (led by the Ciakahrrs) their Orion partners, and the Dark Fleet. It’s important to keep in mind here that there are two Reptilian groups involved in the fighting—on both sides of the conflict, just as humans are fighting on both sides.
Her report continues:
The thing is that the Federation is working at isolating and then treading piece by piece [in battle strategy]. They are not, the Galaxy Federation is not able to face in full combat, complete, all their fleet face-to-face with the Ciakahrr Empire and Orion group. They’re not powerful enough. So what they do is use strategy.
Importantly, Elena is here pointing out that as far as the overall number of space battle groups and personnel are concerned, the Draconian and Orion Alliance are vastly superior, thereby forcing the Galactic Federation to use stealth and covert operations to achieve their goals. This is well illustrated by the Federation’s strategy of assisting local Mars resistance groups and incapacitating Draconian and Orion personnel through various means.
Startling corroboration for Elena’s information about the respective sizes of the Federation and their Draconian/Orion opponents comes from a recent remote viewing session by the Farsight Institute. In the sessions, the remote viewers observed that the Galactic Federation of Worlds is no match, numerically speaking, with their Draco Reptilian and Orion opponents. Stealth and covert operations are thereby the mainstays of how the Federation deals with a hostile planetary situation such as that on Earth and Mars.
Elena went on to say:
I am not always authorized to tell you what I know from Thor Han, but this I can tell. They have forced all the elites and the heads of the Terran bad military to leave the planet, not to declare war on the planet, you know, and damage a lot of things and kill civilians. They didn’t want that, so the plan was going well, and all the dark elites were just coming at the surface, you know, and then most of them have relocated on Mars. The heads of corporations and also the corporations that own the satellites in orbit of Earth, the harmful satellites, it was to be activated to work with the [micro]chipping of the population, even goes beyond that but not talking about that here.
Here Elena is reporting on the exodus to Mars due to the Galactic Federation neutralizing all attempts at fostering a US civil war, major false flag events, and a Third World War. This means that the Deep State agenda on Earth is collapsing, and elites don’t want to remain here to face justice for their many crimes.
Elena continues her report:
What’s happening on Mars is that the Reptilians are panicking. They are asking assistance from the Dark Fleet. Everyone is cut from each other. The Dark Fleet has been hammered by the Federation, hammered, they’re still there but very, very damaged. There has been a lot of attacks and fights on the outposts of the Dark Fleet in this solar system. So, they’re not anymore able to help the Reptilians in combat against the Federation. They’ve withdrawn, they say no, we can’t do that at the moment.
So, the deal in the past with the Reptilians with mutual assistance, well, it’s not working anymore. So, the Reptilians are turning their attention away, and they are turning their attention away trying to contact the Dark Fleet that is out of the solar system and notably the Aldebaran branch.
There have been previous reports about defections from the Dark Fleet in our Solar System due to a system-wide quarantine, the creation of a Secret Space Program Alliance, and an Earth Alliance, as first reported by Corey Goode. The Draconians, Orions, and Dark Fleet, were cut off from their main assets. Apparently, the Dark Fleet has insufficient resources to assist their Draco Reptilian overlords at this time.
Elena next reveals some important information about how the Galactic Federation strategy of generating high frequencies is neutralizing opposition:
What the Galactic Federation is doing as well is broadcasting very high frequencies on Mars as they do on Earth to raise the frequency. And what happens when you raise the frequency and bombard with high frequency? They use also the Sun, they use everything they can to bombard the solar system with high, high frequency. What it does, it awakens the people who need to be awakened. So, it disables the enemy, disables, although strife on the lower frequencies, and they are doing that on Earth, and they’re doing that on Mars, as they have done in many other places. So, the Reptilians are being numbed, and they lose a bit of their aggressivity, and it pisses them off even more.
She is here revealing that by transmitting or amplifying high-frequency energies sweeping into our solar system, the Deep State has been unsuccessfully attempting to block on Earth through chemtrails, genetic modification vaccines and inflammatory media broadcasts—the Draco and Orion personnel on Mars are becoming more passive and awakened. This has led to the Mars resistance becoming more successful, thereby replicating recent events on Earth. The result is that Ciakahrr and Orion leaders are becoming desperate and frustrated.
Elena next explains the connection to the Andromeda Council:
But you know they are pissed off against the Federation, but who they’re pissed off more than anything is the Andromeda Council because the Andromeda Council had foreseen this happening a long time ago. And it’s because of the Andromeda Council that we are fighting back with the help of the Federation, and it’s absolutely wonderful and we’re winning.
Here Elena is repeating what was told to Alex Collier back in the early 1990s, that the Andromeda Council had foreseen that the Earth, Moon and Mars would be the seed of galactic tyranny that would emerge 350 years in the future. The Andromeda Council brought this to the attention of the Galactic Federation, which then began intervening in Earth affairs.
This means that what we are witnessing at the moment on Mars, Moon, and the Earth is part of a “Temporal War” that pits the Galactic Federation and the Andromeda Council against the Draconian Empire and their Orion partners. While the Draco and Orion alliance has superior firepower and personnel, the Federation and the Andromedans have superior intelligence and covert operations.
This is crucial to know since it traces much of what is currently happening to the establishment of the German breakaway colony in Antarctica as the seed point of this Temporal War. I will discuss this Temporal War in more detail in my May 22 webinar: “Antarctica, Dark Fleet, and Humanity’s Liberation.”
Elena next explains what is happening to the human colonists on Mars trapped in the current fighting:
You know the Galactic Federation couldn’t attack before because they were waiting for all the elites to be on Mars. So, Mars is being raided, it’s unfortunately horrible fights on the surface. I feel a bit for the earth people, the colony there. They think they are cut from earth, but the Federation in this operation is doing their best to rescue these people, and you know that they don’t have this policy of killing. They first ask if they want to surrender or if they want to be evacuated. If they refuse, there is a fight.
It’s important to emphasize that the fighting is being led by local Mars resistance forces, not the Galactic Federation. In an email exchange, I asked whether the recent uptick in marsquakes that are being monitored by NASA are related to the raids on Mars. The two largest marsquakes happened at the end of March 2021, in the region called Cerberus Fossae. Here is what Elena said Thor Han told her about the connection between the raids and marsquakes:
I just caught him, he [Thor Han] quickly replied that all underground activities are performed by the Martian local resistance and not by the Galactic Federation. He said there are beings endemic to Mars, who are able to burrow in the ground and are quite powerful. These beings are not very evolved in consciousness, a bit like big animals, but they are employed by the local reptilian resistance to attack enemy underground facilities. He said this has been happening for the last four years, with an increase in activity for two years, quite regularly and often on the same spots.
The Galactic Federation has been providing them with weaponry to enforce them. They are working conjointly, although the Martian resistance sometimes likes to make decisions for themselves. The actions of the Galactic Federation are not on the ground but above. They are also broadcasting high frequencies to numb the enemy. So yes, he confirmed these marsquakes are the product of regular and repeated attacks from the local underground resistance.
This is very revealing since it confirms that the Galactic Federation strategy of assisting planets awaken and resist oppression by the Draconian/Orion alliance is permissible under universal rules of engagement. A key part of this liberation strategy is to help a planet’s population raise their frequency levels, as Elena explains in her report:
So that’s what is happening at the moment. I think it’s going to get even worse in combat, but we need, you know, we need to hear the ground crew on earth we need to do our job, which is to raise our frequencies. The Galactic Federation, Council of Five, the Andromeda Council they are bombarding the whole system with high frequency. So, we need to do our job as well as raise our frequency. That’s the only way that we can be immune to mind control and Reptilians and Greys, and also to be stronger than them. Because I’m going to tell you something, OK, we’re way more powerful than we think we are. That’s a fact. I always tell you that, but also we are, we have such a potential that all the ETs that are working around us they know that, and they know that one day we will be even able to teach them because the potential we have is absolutely amazing. We are like royalty, you know, something like this, so don’t lose hope.
Elena is here stating something that had earlier been revealed by Alex Collier, who the Andromeda Council told that humanity was made up from the genetics of 22 extraterrestrial civilizations. Two decades later, Corey Goode would independently confirm that there were 22 genetic experiments conducted by between 40-60 alien groups over the last 500,000 years.
Elena finishes her report by explaining that the events transpiring on Earth have great galactic significance:
It’s going to get confusing more and more, but we all know the work of our allies the Galactic Federation of Worlds, and it is a privilege to be alive in these times. We have chosen to be here now and from our actions depends the fate of not only all species but of this entire Galaxy because the seeds of darkness are being destroyed at the moment now.
So, this is it, and Thor Han asked me to say that for those who know him, do not worry for him, he’s been leading the first raids with his co-workers, officers, but now is staying on the station and doing the job he is best at, after being a pilot, organizing missions. This is his new job and looking after me because I’m important, I give you updates, and I help you, and he needs to be available and look after me also, and give me information.
So we love you all and we are very proud of you, you are not alone. Raise your frequency, refusing fear, refusing manipulation, refusing conclusion and you will see if you trust everything will be alright. Fight with the truth, fight with love, fight with Peace.
Elena’s final point about the role she is playing in transmitting information from Thor Han is vitally important. Through Thor Han and her other Galactic Federation contacts, she is a conduit for real-time intelligence reports from the Galactic Federation of Worlds.
It cannot be underestimated how important it is for the full disclosure community to receive real-time intelligence reports from the Galactic Federation since we will not be told the truth by governments, the mainstream media, nor the Deep State. Nor will White Hats within the military intelligence community ever reveal the whole truth of what is happening in exopolitical affairs since they have their own agendas.
At best, knowledgeable insiders such as Professor Haim Eshed, the founder of Israel’s space program, will confirm in an informal manner the existence of the Galactic Federation and its cooperation with different governments, and the existence of joint US extraterrestrials bases on Mars. These revelations are done in a casual way that maintains plausible deniability and without revealing too many details.
As far as I have been able to assess from my own exøpolitical investigations and research of Elena’s information, it is coherent and consistent with the revelations of many other insiders that I have discussed in my Secret Space Programs book series.
More recently, the Farsight Institute has released its own findings about multiple remote viewing targets, which I have discussed (here and here), the results of which independently corroborate many of Elena’s revelations.
Another independent means of corroborating Elena’s data is matching the locations of marsquakes with the places where local Mars resistance forces have raided the bases of the Ciakharr-Orion-Corporate-Dark Fleet alliance on Mars. As more scientific data on marsquakes becomes publicly available, it will become possible to confirm Elena’s information, and I will release the results of my own investigations.
In conclusion, I am very confident about the reliability and accuracy of Elena Danaan’s information, and so far have found it to be a powerful revelation of a planetary liberation war currently happening on Mars that is supported, to varying degrees, by multiple independent sources.
Article by Charles Wade-Palmer April 18, 2021 (dailystar.co.uk)
• In a book by the former Ministry of Defence (MoD) X-Files employee from the 1990’s, Nick Pope, entitled The Uninvited, Pope relates the story of Peter and his girlfriend Jenny who were driving along a toll-road in South Florida when their car was slowly pulled off the road and 100 feet into the air above a clearing of trees. Peter unbuckled his seatbelt and stepped out of the car ‘into thin air’ before finding himself in a cramped metallic corridor. Then Peter found himself walking back in ‘mid-air’ into his car where Jenny was still sitting there motionless.
• Once back in the car, suspended in mid-air, the car began spinning down until it reached the ground. Now Peter found them driving down a different highway outside of Boca Raton. Peter estimated that the whole ordeal lasted less than half an hour. Later he determined that it was actually an hour and a half.
• UK ufology investigator Philip Mantle claims this alien encounter that Pope reports in his book was in fact experienced by the author himself. Another ufologist by the name of Chris Fowler claims that Pope “told us all that a few years ago, before he got the job at Air Staff 2A (MoD), he was on holiday with his girlfriend at the time in Florida and had what he described as a ‘missing road’ experience.” “Nick came out with something that I found pretty weird,” said Fowler. “[A]t least coming from him that is.”
• According to Mantle’s investigation, “Pope claimed that when he joined Air Staff (2A) in the summer of 1991 that he had no knowledge or interest in UFOs and it was only because of the UFO investigations that he carried out on behalf of the MoD that turned him into a believer. Well, I provided a document from the MoD in 1988 when he was working at Portsmouth that he had already dealt with a UFO enquiry there.”
• The UFO researchers believe Peter was in fact Nick Pope, with the significance being he had a keener interest in extraterrestrial life forms than he let on at the Ministry of Defence. “In January 1991, before he moved to the so-called ‘UFO DESK’ he had already had his own close encounter in Florida. …[Pope] now denies that any such encounter happened (to him).” “[W]e have also provided documents to show that while serving at Air Staff (2A), he was a D-grade clerk and never investigated anything.”

Ex-MoD worker Nick Pope is alleged to have been abducted on a toll road where he experienced “lost time”.
Ufologist Philip Mantle claims a chilling alien encounter Nick reports in his book The Uninvited was in fact experienced by the author himself.
According to Nick, a man named Peter was driving in Florida, US, with his girlfriend Jenny when their car was slowly pulled off the road into a clearing of trees about 100 feet off the ground.
With the trees lit up, Peter claimed he removed his seatbelt and stepped out of the vehicle into thin air before finding himself in a cramped metallic corridor.
Peter recalls eventually finding himself walking back in mid-air into his car where Jenny was still sitting there motionless.

Once back in the car, it began spinning until it reached the ground but on a highway outside of Boca Raton rather than the toll road they were driving on.
Bizarrely Peter believed the whole ordeal lasted less than half an hour, only to learn it had been another hour on top of that.
A collective of researchers believe Peter was in fact Nick Pope, with the significance being he had a keener interest in extra terrestrial life forms than he let on at the Ministry of Defence.
Philip Mantle said: “Pope claimed that when he joined Air Staff (2A) in the summer of 1991 that he had no knowledge or interest in UFOs and it was only because of the UFO investigations that he carried out on behalf of the MoD that turned him into a believer.

• On February 18th, NASA’s Perseverance rover along with the Ingenuity helicopter landed together inside the 28-mile-wide Jezero Crater on Mars. On April 3rd, the small helicopter deployed from the rover’s belly, kicking off a month-long flight campaign. On April 19th the solar-powered helicopter made its 39-second vertical test flight reaching a maximum altitude of about 16.5 feet. On April 22nd, Ingenuity repeated the initial test, but stayed aloft for nearly 52 seconds while moving side-to-side a total of 13 feet. NASA receives the Ingenuity helicopter’s communications data through the Perseverance rover which is relayed to Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) mission control in Pasadena, California.
• On April 25th, the four pound Ingenuity helicopter reached the same 16.5 feet altitude, but increased its airspeed from 0.5 meters per second to 2 meters per second (about 4.5 mph), traveling 164 feet north, then returning to its launch pad, dubbed ‘Wright Brothers Field’. Officials at NASA’s JPL mission control tweeted: “Third flight in the history books.” “ The space chopper is demonstrating critical capabilities that could enable the addition of an aerial dimension to future missions to Mars & beyond.”
• The Ingenuity helicopter mission proves that aerial exploration is possible on Mars. Although Mars has an atmosphere only 1% as dense as that of Earth at sea level, Mars helicopters could serve as scouts on future Red Planet missions, and also gathering data themselves. But this time, Ingenuity is not doing any science work. It is only attempting to demonstrate that it can fly. Ingenuity does carry a 13-megapixel color camera to snap photos of the Perseverance rover’s tire tracks on Mars.
• The JPL ‘Ingenuity team’ hopes to get in two more flights by early May. These last two sorties will likely be “really adventurous,” Ingenuity project manager MiMi Aung said during a news conference earlier this month, stressing that she and her colleagues want to push the little chopper’s limits. Then that will be it for Ingenuity. Perseverance will then begin to focus on the rover’s own science mission with two main tasks: hunting for signs of ancient Mars life inside the Jezero crater, which hosted a lake and river delta long ago; and collecting samples to return to Earth at a later time.

Make it a hat trick on the Red Planet for NASA’s Mars helicopter Ingenuity.
The 4-lb. (1.8 kilograms) chopper aced its third-ever Martian flight early this morning (April 25), adding to its already impressive resume.
“Third flight in the history books.” officials at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California wrote on Twitter. “Our #MarsHelicopter continues to set records, flying faster and farther. The space chopper is demonstrating critical capabilities that could enable the addition of an aerial dimension to future missions to Mars & beyond.”
MiMi Aung
And today’s sortie was significantly more complex than Ingenuity’s previous two
Ingenuity helicopter’s first aerial color image
flights, which took place on Monday (April 19) and Thursday (April 22), respectively. On its historic, 39-second debut hop — the first powered, controlled flight for an aircraft on a world beyond Earth — the solar-powered helicopter went straight up and down and reached a maximum altitude of about 16.5 feet (5 meters).
Ingenuity went about that high on flight number two but stayed up for nearly 52 seconds and moved side-to-side a total of 13 feet (4 m).
“For the third flight, we’re targeting the same altitude, but we are going to open things up a bit, too, increasing our max airspeed from 0.5 meters per second to 2 meters per second (about 4.5 mph) as we head 50 meters (164 feet) north and return to land at Wright Brothers Field,” Ingenuity chief pilot Håvard Grip, of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Southern California, wrote in a blog post Friday (April 23). (The Ingenuity team named the chopper’s flight zone after aviation pioneers Wilbur and Orville Wright.)

Article by Joel Gehrke April 14, 2021 (washingtonexaminer.com)
• “There’s just no question, as a general matter, that China is focused on achieving leadership in space,” the Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, told a Senate oversight panel. China is expected to launch its own space station (pictured above) into low-earth orbit by 2024, and Chinese officials have “entered [the] pre-launch phase” for the core of a low-earth orbit space station. This project is expected to unfold in stages over the next few years, and Chinese General Secretary Xi Jinping aspires to make the space station a highly visible display of China’s ambitions.
• “We expect a Chinese space station in low Earth orbit (LEO) to be operational between 2022 and 2024,” the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a recently released report. “China also has conducted and plans to conduct additional lunar exploration missions, and it intends to establish a robotic research station on the Moon and later an intermittently crewed lunar base.”
• A trio of Chinese astronauts could be living in the core module within months. “China is aiming to construct its three-module space station with 11 launches across 2021-2022,” says Space News. “These will consist of three module launches and visits by four crewed missions and four cargo spacecraft. Chinese astronauts are currently in training for space station missions, with 12 astronauts expected to fly on the four missions.”
• A Chinese space station put into orbit with the assistance of Russian experts would be a major achievement for the Chinese, and would punctuate China’s emergence as a rival to the U.S. in space. “To fly humans in space and do it successfully, you have to master every field of technical endeavor — chemistry; physics; every form of engineering; medicine, you name it, you have to be a master in it,” Scott Pace told the Washington Examiner in 2018 when Pace was the executive secretary of the White House National Space Council.
• Chinese state media portrays this development as a peaceful display of China’s interest in space. “China’s space missions are mainly for peaceful purposes, and fruits of development can be shared with others, to offer great help to the progress of space technology, which is different from the U.S.’s space technology that mainly serves the military,” Chinese aerospace expert Song Zhongping was quoted as saying.
• But NATO officials see a growing security risk from such capabilities. China has developed and used at least one kind of anti-satellite missile to destroy a weather satellite in 2007. The PLA will continue to integrate space services such as satellite reconnaissance, positioning, navigation, timing, and communications into its weapons command-and-control systems to erode the US military’s information advantage, warns Haines. “China has already fielded ground-based ASAT missiles intended to destroy satellites in [low-earth orbit] and ground-based ASAT lasers probably intended to blind or damage sensitive space-based optical sensors on LEO satellites.”
• Haines suggested that countering those threats would involve both Space Force and private sector initiatives. “The private sector has just become increasingly important in our efforts to contest and to work, essentially, against contestations to our leadership in space,” Haines told the senators. “Economically, from a security perspective, from a communications perspective, and from the perspective of just understanding and intelligence … we want to ensure that we continue US leadership in this area.”
• [Editor’s Note] And so retired US deep state government officials and military officers continue their drum beat for war against China, Russia or whomever they can draw into battle, while enticing deep state-controlled corporations to support the deep state’s war agenda with the promise of massive military contracts. Just business as usual for the deep state.
China is expected to launch its own space station into low-earth orbit by 2024,

American intelligence officials assess, part of an effort to surpass the United States as the preeminent space power.
“There’s just no question, as a general matter, that China is focused on achieving leadership in space, in effect, as compared to the United States,” Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines told a Senate oversight panel on Wednesday before urging further decision during a closed session.

Chinese General Secretary Xi Jinping aspires to make one very visible display of his ambitions in the coming weeks, as Chinese officials have “entered [the] pre-launch phase” for the core of a low-earth orbit space station, per state media. This project is expected to unfold in stages over the next few years, according to Haines’s team of analysts.
“We expect a Chinese space station in low Earth orbit (LEO) to be operational between 2022 and 2024,” the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a report released this week. “China also has conducted and plans to conduct additional lunar exploration missions, and it intends to establish a robotic research station on the Moon and later an intermittently crewed lunar base.”

Chinese astronauts are currently in training for space station missions, with 12 astronauts expected to fly on the four missions.”
Those ambitions would punctuate China’s emergence as a rival to the U.S., which launched the International Space Station in 1999, placing “the third brightest object in the sky” into orbit with the assistance of Russian experts — a cooperative effort intended at the time to demonstrate post-Cold War comity and technological possibility. It would be a major achievement and opportunity for Chinese researchers.

Many of you reading this are probably well aware of the fact that mainstream UFO
disclosure is taking off, and has been taking off over the past couple of years. Major media outlets like the New York Times and CNN have covered the topic with extreme legitimacy, and given the fact that much of the public relies on these outlets for information, they are now becoming aware of the fact that there are objects in our atmosphere performing maneuvers that no known man made piece of machinery can.
The idea of a “New World Order” has been a common theme within multiple subjects. In essence, the idea of a New World Order is that there is a conspiracy to create a new totalitarian world government that would not benefit people as a whole. It includes the rollout of measures under the guise of goodwill to combat “problems” our world is facing. Proponents of the New World Order theory believe that many of these problems, like climate change and COVID, are manufactured and/or used to justify more surveillance. It also includes a digital world armed with more tracking, surveillance, and the acquisition of data from all citizens, as well as the rollout of various laws and reforms that continually lead us to a world where many of our rights and freedoms are stripped from us. Again, all of this under the guise of goodwill and for “our protection.”
On the morning of May 30, 2016, an Air Canada Express flight from Montreal to
Toronto reported it had “crossed an unidentified flying object, round in shape, flying at an approximate speed of 300kts,” or more than 550 km/h. Over 8,000 feet above Lake Ontario on Nov. 14 of that year, two crew members were injured when a Porter Airlines plane dove to avoid hitting an “object” that “appeared to be solid… and shaped like an upright doughnut or inner tube.”
