Nuclear Weapon Signature on Mars Have Expert Saying This is Proof of Extraterrestrial Life

by Arjun Walia          December 28, 2017           (collective-evolution.com)

• Dr. John Brandenburg is a well-known and respected plasma physicist who has worked on plasma technologies, nuclear fusion, and advanced space propulsion for NASA, and invented the Microwave Electro-Thermal plasma thruster using water propellant for space propulsion. Brandenburg was the Deputy Manager of the NASA Clementine Mission to the Moon that discovered water at the Moon’s poles in 1994.

• According to Brandenburg, the superabundance of Xe 129 in the Mars atmosphere is a “nuclear weapon” signature, indicating that there was a nuclear blast on Mars that completely changed the planet’s surface.

• Brandenburg says that there are things “out there” that have been deliberately kept from us. Whether this information has been concealed because the human race is not ready for this information, or that it’s just too “mind-altering” and would change too many things, or because its disclosure would threaten to various corporate interests remains unclear.

• As we move through 2018 and beyond, more people will become open and aware to the idea that we are not alone, that we’ve never been alone, and that there is plenty of evidence to prove these claims.

 

A lot of people reading the title of this article are probably rolling their eyes, and that’s a problem. Paradigm-changing discoveries are being made every day, and if these discoveries don’t make mainstream media headlines, people dismiss them as fake news, conspiracy theories, or pseudoscience. But the small group of people who control mainstream media also have control over our perception of reality, over what we consider to be real or not real, and that’s a problem.

The world has witnessed the birth of several different “alternative” news outlets in response to this issue, yet the information they provide never makes mainstream headlines despite coming from credible sources. This has especially been the case when it comes to UFOs, extraterrestrials, and life on other planets.

Despite studies being published in multiple peer-reviewed scientific journals bringing forth some very intriguing questions, this type of information is still greeted with skepticism more often than not, though things are slowly changing. As we move through 2018 and beyond, more people will become open and aware to the idea that we are not alone, that we’ve never been alone, and that there is plenty of evidence to prove these claims.

One person working to prove them is Dr. John Brandenburg, a well-known and respected plasma physicist who joined a number of colleagues in blowing the whistle on the need for disclosure. They argue there are things “out there” that have been deliberately kept from us. Whether this information has been concealed because the human race is not ready for this information, that it’s just too “mind-altering” and would change too many things, or because its disclosure would threaten to various corporate interests, remains unclear and too broad a subject to tackle here.

Since coming out, Brandenburg has been ridiculed by the mainstream, as any Department of Defense scientist making such claims would be, but the information he shares correlates with scores of other papers and documents available in the public domain, as well as the information that’s been shared by a number of scholars over the years, about this subject.

We’ve presented his work in multiple articles, but he has now come out with new revelations.
Brandenburg worked for NASA for a number of years. He was also the Deputy Manager of the Clementine Mission to the Moon, which was part of a joint space project between the Ballistic Missile Defence Organization (BMDO) and NASA. The mission discovered water at the Moon’s poles in 1994.

He has also worked on space plasma technologies, nuclear fusion, and advanced space propulsion, and invented the Microwave Electro-Thermal plasma thruster using water propellant for space propulsion.

Mars

“The more we observe Mars, the more information we’re getting that it really is a fascinating planet, from the Curiosity Rover we now know that Mars once was like a planet very much like Earth, with long salty seas, with fresh water lakes, probably with snow capped peaks and clouds and a water cycle just like we’re studying here on Earth. . . . Something has happened to Mars, it lost its water.”

The quote above is from John Grunsfeld, a five-time space flow astronaut and associate administrator of NASA’s Science Mission Directive. It was given at a NASA press conference where representatives told the world that there is a water Mars, that it’s not the dry, arid planet we imagined it to be, and that it was once very much Earth-like and still holds the possibility of harbouring life. After all, water means life.

In that conference, they admit to a drastic atmospheric shift that occurred on Mars which took it from its Earth-like composition to the one we see today. They provide no explanation for how this happened.
According to Brandenburg, there was a nuclear blast that completely changed the planet (the changes mentioned at the press conference linked in the above paragraph. He states: “The question has been raise as to why a superabundance of Xe 129 in the Mars atmosphere, relative to every other major planetary isotopic reservoir in the Solar System can be considered as “nuclear weapon” signature on mars. In this brief article I will summarize how Xe 129 superabundance occurs physically and is associated in the open literature with “fast neutron fission” found in supernova – the close physical analog to a hydrogen bomb explosion (3,4,5). I will also show that Earth atmospheric data compared between 1937 (1), just before the dawn of the nuclear age, and that done in 1950 and 1978, clearly shows an increase of Xe 129 from 1937 relative to other Xe isotopes and can therefore be associated with open air nuclear weapon testing and plutonium production, which itself produces large amounts of fast neutron fission of Uranium and Plutonium isotopes.”

Revealed: ‘Secret Area 51 Airline’ Flies in Special Planes From Guarded Las Vegas Terminal

by Taryn Tarrant-Cornish           January 5, 2018           (express.co.uk)

• Sonic booms, and a very loud double sonic boom heard in December over the Nevada Air Force testing ground known as Area 51 prompted locals to demand answers, and this led to the discovery of a hidden airport in Las Vegas serving the military to and from Area 51. In addition to testing experimental aircraft and weaponry, rumor has it that Area 51 is where the U.S. government is hiding extraterrestrial craft and even some ETs themselves, and is reverse-engineering these alien craft. The U.S. government admitted to the existence of Area 51 in 2005.

• Researchers discovered that a fleet of 737s, painted with a distinctive red stripe and call signs that begin with ‘XXX’, routinely fly from a secret terminal named “Janet” (‘Just Another Non-Existent Terminal’) at McCarren Airport in Las Vegas, to Area 51, and also to the Tonopah nuclear facility. The terminal is used exclusively for military personnel, is protected by armed guards, and flight schedules from that terminal do not appear on airport information boards.

• UFO truth seekers believe the double sonic boom heard over Area 51 military could be a sign of something otherworldly being hidden in the classified location.

 

Suspicious flights have been seen leaving McCarran Airport in the city of sin with their schedules and manifest shrouded in complete mystery.

The airline flies from a terminal named Janet exclusively serves military personnel carrying them from Vegas to the desert base where many believe the US hides evidence of UFOs and aliens.

Janet is reported to be an acronym for Just Another Non-Existent Terminal.

The fleet of 737s painted with a distinctive red stripe carry call signs which start XXX.

The planes do not appear on departure boards and no civilians are able to get near the terminal which is protected by armed guards.

Former Ministry of Defence employee Nick Pope said: ”Area 51 exists – it’s part of a military testing range in Nevada – and because of the remote and sparsely-populated location, it’s where various secret prototype aircraft and drones are developed and test flown.”

Flights travel to nuclear facility Tonopah and another unnamed destination which is accepted by many to be the infamous Area 51 air force base.

Despite its massive size and reputation as the centre of extraterrestrial activity in the US, it took until 2005 for the US government to openly acknowledge the existence of the base.

It is thought the base is used to carry out experimental aircraft and weapons tests deep in the Nevada desert.

Mr Pope told The Sun: “The UFO and conspiracy theory community think it’s the place where crashed UFOs are kept and where the US military is trying to back-engineer this alien technology.

“Sadly, despite the rumours, I’ve seen no evidence that we’ve recovered any extraterrestrial technology.”

Revelations about the secret airline come after demands for information after a mysterious double sonic boom was heard over the base.

UFO truth seekers believe a double sonic boom being heard over the mysterious Area 51 military could be a sign of something otherworldly being hidden in the classified location.

A video showing the strange noises over the Nevada US Air Force base posted on YouTube by channel UFO Seekers has racked up more than 40,000 views.

In the clip, F-22 fighter jets can be seen flying over Area 51.

The stealth planes leave strange trails as they cut through the Nevada skies at speeds of up to 1,500mph.

Then, as one accelerates away, a frighteningly loud double booming sound can be heard.

Russia is Planning a Luxury Hotel on the Space Station

by Paul Seaburn          December 27, 2017          (mysteriousuniverse.org)

• The Russian space agency, Roscosmos, announced that it plans to install a luxury hotel module on the International Space Station to cater to space tourists by 2020.

• It will be a 20-ton, 51-feet long module designed to accommodate four visitors, each having sleeping berths, a shared bathroom, a common lounge area, WiFi and exercise equipment. Each sleeping berth will have a 9-inch porthole and the lounge area will have a 16-inch porthole to view space. The cost for this vacation is $40 million, with a $4 million down payment.

• An upgraded luxury package goes for $60 million for a month-long stay, and includes guided spacewalks accompanied by a cosmonaut.

• Russia’s primary space contractor, RKK Energia, will build the space station over the next five years. A decade ago, RKK Energia sent seven space tourists to the ISS, including American multimillionaire Dennis Tito, who paid $20 million for an 8-day stay.

• The only wrinkle in the plan is that the US and Russia have agreed to retire the ISS in 2028.

• But if you miss the Russian space hotel, there’s always Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin or Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic suborbital tourism programs.

 

Now that everyone is talking out in the open about UFOs, including the US government and military, it will only be a matter of time before outer-space hotels start opening up to cater to tourist who want to see the unidentified objects from a better vantage point than their backyards. How much time? Try right now. The Russian space agency Roscosmos announced it is planning to install a luxury hotel module on the International Space Station to cater to space tourists. Will the Russian ISS hotel minibar be stocked with vodka and Tang?

The news about this planned Red Roof-of-the-Atmosphere Inn comes from Popular Mechanics magazine (motto: Grease is our favorite scent), which revealed this week that it somehow obtained access to a proposal by Roscosmos State Corporation, the government body overseeing the country’s space program, to add a 20-ton, 15.5-meter (51 feet)-long module to the ISS whose sole purpose would be to cater to space travelers. The 92 cubic meter (3249 cubic feet) will be designed to give four visitors their own 2 cubic meter (70 cubic foot) bedroom and one-half of a 2 cubic meter “hygiene and medical” station (bathroom). This orbiting B&B will also have a common area for lounging with fellow tourists, WiFi and exercise equipment (zero-gravity weightlifting anyone?).

What about UFO spotting opportunities? For those on the standard package, each sleeping room will have a 9-inch (228 mm) porthole (think airplane window) while the communal lounge will have a 16-inch (426 mm) window (think small manhole cover) for four people to push and shove their way in front of for a better view. However, those who upgrade to the luxury package will get guided spacewalks accompanied by their own personal cosmonaut, who will point out the sights and say, “Look, there’s your house!” when the tourist starts to ask too many questions about strange objects whizzing by.

How much would you pay for a luxurious one-week-to-one-month stay at the ISS? If you have to ask the price, you probably can’t afford the $40 million minimum and the $4 million down payment so RKK Energia, Russia’s primary space contractor, can begin working on the space hotel. This is the same group that ran Russia’s original space tourism program which sent 7 space tourists to the ISS between 2001 and 2009, starting with American multimillionaire Dennis Tito, who paid $20 million for an 8-day stay. RKK Energia estimates it will take 5 years and 16.4 to 26.2 billion rubles ($279-$446 million) to complete its new outer-space place, so it’s looking to sign up as many people as it can for this out-of-this-world timeshare deal. They will probably be pushing the luxury package — which includes spacewalks but requires a month-long stay, for just $20 million more.

US Fighter Pilot Reveals Close Encounter With UFO and Warns World Leaders to Take Sightings Seriously

by Hugo Daniels and Emily Saul             December 31, 2017            (thesun.co.uk)

• Retired Navy Commander, David Fravor, 53, was flying one of a pair of fighter jets on a routine training mission about 100 miles into the Pacific ocean off San Diego in 2004, an incident which has become the subject of a Department of Defense cockpit video released to the public in mid-December, causing a furor in the UFO and scientific world. Fravor and his wingman were diverted by the Navy cruiser the USS Princeton to check out an object spotted on their radar. The Princeton operator said they had been tracking up to a dozen mystery aircraft over two weeks but hadn’t deployed any aircraft when Fravor’s F/A-18 Super Hornet arrived on the scene.

• The object first appeared at 80,000 ft, then hurtled towards the sea, stopping at 20,000 feet and hovering before dropping out of radar. When Fravor arrived he saw a white aircraft hovering 50 feet above a disturbance in the ocean. The UFO craft was 40 ft long and rounded, resembling a tic tac with no wings. It was bright white but wasn’t reflecting a lot of light. It had no windows, no exhaust flume, and no visible form of propulsion.  (see 43-second video below)

• As Fravor flew towards it, the craft began ascending towards him, passing him at about 12,000 ft. He thinks he got within half a mile of it. Fravor says, “I literally chased the thing and it started to mirror us, it was like it became aware we were there. I cut across to see if I could get closer and it rapidly accelerated and disappeared. Within a matter of a second it was gone.” “In 16 years of flying I had never seen anything like that.”

• Fravor said, “I know what I saw. It was impressive, it had incredible performance.” “I honestly don’t think humans have that technology to do what that thing did. Nor could the human body withstand accelerations like that.” Fravor insists that the object was alien in origin.

• Fravor offered his advice, “You can ignore them and hope they’re just going to observe, or you can do something about it and try to understand what they’re doing.” “We all need to take these seriously as a species, because right now we don’t know the intent of these things.”

 

Retired US Navy pilot commander David Fravor spoke out in support of ex US government intelligence officer Luis Elizondo, who last week revealed he ran a real life “X Files” UFO research department at the Pentagon named the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP) funded by £16 million ($22m) “black ops money” from Congress.

Elizondo secured the release of previously classified US Defense Department videos of UFO encounters – one of which shows the craft Fravor saw darting off at an incredible speed.

Commander Fravor, 53, was flying one of two fighter jets on a routine training mission about 100 miles into the Pacific ocean off San Diego when they were diverted to check out an aircraft spotted on radar from their navy cruiser the USS Princeton.

The operations operator said they had been tracking up to a dozen mystery aircraft over two weeks but hadn’t had manned planes deployed when they showed up.

The object first appeared at 80,000ft, then hurtled towards the sea, stopping at 20,000 feet and hovering before dropping out of radar.

When Commander Fravor arrived he saw a white aircraft hovering 50 feet above above a disturbance in the ocean.

He said: “It was just moving randomly around – this 40 foot long white tic tac looking thing, with no wings.

“It was a clear day with a blue background and it was perfectly white. We didn’t see any windows, no form of propulsion, nothing, just a big white object.

“It was rounded on both ends and had a cylindrical body which rounded in, same front to back.

“I couldn’t tell what it was made of, it was bright white but it wasn’t reflecting a bunch of light.”

Fravor flew towards it and the aircraft began ascending towards him, passing him at about 12,000 ft. He thinks he got within half a mile of it.

He said: “I literally chased the thing and it started to mirror us, it was like it became aware we were there. I cut across to see if I could get closer and it rapidly accelerated and disappeared. Within a matter of a second it was gone.”

Asked what was going through his mind, he said: “I was thinking ‘That’s pretty strange’. In 16 years of flying I had never seen anything like that. Nothing that can hover and climb at that rate up and then accelerate and just disappear.

“I was more curious then afraid. I wanted to see how close I could get to it, to see what it was.”
The two fighter jets were told to head to a rendezvous point 60 miles away.

However the radio operator on the Princeton then radioed and said the mystery aircraft had turned up before them.

At this point another aircraft was sent to investigate and recorded radar footage of the aircraft. The 90 second video shows the oblong shaped object hovering before it darts off to the left at what appears to be an unprecedented velocity.

Fravor said: “It jammed the radar, you couldn’t lock it with a conventional radar, you could passively track it and see it, but if you tried to grab a lock it wouldn’t allow you to do that.

“When it takes off and goes to the side that’s a significant amount of distance to travel in a very short period of time, we’re talking miles, that thing just goes poof and in about a second it’s off the side of the screen.

“You look at the video of it there’s no exhaust flume, there’s no indication of how that thing is moving around. Having seen a lot of different airplanes, you can always at least hot spots where the exhaust is coming out. I was close enough visually to go ‘we don’t have anything like that’.”
He insisted the object was alien in origin.

UFO Hunter in Shock Claim ‘Alien Ship’ Found on the Moon

by David Rivers         January 2, 2018          (dailystar.co.uk)

• Streetcap1 has uploaded a YouTube video of a large, unusual object on the surface of the Moon titled “Alien Ship on the Lunar Surface” (see 1:38 video below)

• Streecap1 claims he sourced the image from the Chinese Chang’e 3 lunar rover, launched in 2013 saying, “I don’t know what else it could be. Look at the detail. No brightness or colour adjustments have been made at all. This is exactly how it appears on the Chinese Chang’e 3 photographs.”

 

The video uploaded to YouTube titled “Alien Ship on the Lunar Surface” shows pictures of a large, unusual object on its surface.

Truth-seeker Streetcap1 claims he sourced the snaps from the Chinese Chang’e 3 lunar rover, launched in 2013.

He said: “I don’t know what else it could be. Look at the detail.

“No brightness or colour adjustments have been made at all, this is exactly how it appears on the Chinese Chang’e 3 photographs.”

YouTube is up in arms over footage, and so far it has been viewed by over 31,000 people.
One commented: “That is spectacular. No one can possibly doubt what that is. Fantastic find.”

Another added: “Wow now that was something. How did you find that and more people need to see it? Alien ship or not it is something that shouldn’t be ignored.”

Mystery Surrounds Why Four Nations Launch Rockets in Four Days

by Paul Seaburn        December 29, 2017        (mysteriousuniverse.org)

• During a four day period in December 2017, the US, Russia, China and Japan all launched rockets carrying satellites into space.

• On December 22nd, the US SpaceX launched 10 more Iridium Next satellites, adding to a constellation of over 60 satellites providing worldwide voice and data communication.

• Also on December 22nd, Japan launched an H-2A rocket, putting a climate monitoring satellite in polar orbit, and a demonstration satellite in lower orbit.

• On December 26th, China launched a Long March-2C carrier rocket with remote sensing satellites to conduct electromagnetic environmental probes.

• Also on December 26th, Russia launched a rocket carrying Angola’s first-ever telecommunications satellite, but announced it had lost contact with it shortly after it entered orbit.

• Coincidence? Is there something going on? Or have we reached a point where rocket launches to put more satellites in orbit have become a weekly event?

 

It’s been barely a week since the government released two UFO videos … that’s more than enough time to start connecting this “disclosure” to other events/dots that are strange, government-or-military-related and potentially linked to space travel, UFOs and government cover-ups. Just such a confluence of incidents occurred over the past week when the US, Russia, China and Japan all launched rockets during a brief four-day period. All were reportedly carrying satellites and some had unusual circumstances surrounding them. Let’s start connecting.

Credit for noticing the four launches in four days goes to the folks at UFO Sightings Hotspot, who think the satellite payloads means that “Something” Is Being Monitored In Space!” That’s obvious, but what? And why four different programs?

The US. launch was the iconic and infamous SpaceX launch of a completely recycled two-stage Falcon 9 booster from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California on December 22 11:27 p.m. EST (8:27 p.m. local California time). This was the launch that launched 10 more Iridium Next satellites and thousands of UFO sighing calls as the rocket blazed a condom-shaped trail across the evening sky. The Iridium satellite constellation consists of over 60 active satellites covering the entire planet to provide worldwide voice and data communication. While this historic launch caused quite a stir, it doesn’t appear to be unusual.

On the same day, Japan had its own unusual launch from the Tanegashima Space Center. One H-2A rocket released satellites in two different orbits by first putting a Shikisai climate monitoring satellite into a polar orbit around 500 miles (800 km), then reigniting twice and dropping a demonstration satellite in a lower orbit between 280 and 400 miles (450-643 km). Spaceflight Now reported that the Japanese launch occurred just 72 seconds before the SpaceX liftoff – the shortest interval between two successful launches in history. Coincidence or intentional?

Just four days later, China launched remote sensing satellites on a Long March-2C carrier rocket from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center. Chinese media reports the satellites will conduct electromagnetic environmental probes and other experiments. However, Spaceflight Insider points out that China has been very secretive about other launches in what is called the Yaogan-30 project and most experts believe it’s a secret military project.

That brings us to the Russian launches. The Russian space agency Roscomos launched a rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome carrying Angola’s first-ever telecommunications satellite late on December 26th, but announced it had lost contact with it shortly after it entered orbit.

The Earth is Hollow: Growing Community Believe Superior ‘Alien’ Humans, Vikings, and Nazis Live in Paradise in the Center

by Scott Campbell           December 25, 2017             (dailymail.co.uk)

• Some theorists believe the Earth is hollow, that superior ‘alien’ humans live inside, and that a paradise lies at the Earth’s core resembling the Garden of Eden. There are openings to the inner Earth in the Himalayan Mountains and at the North and South Poles leading to lands that have become home escaped Nazis from World War II and lost Viking colonies. They believe that the moon and other planets were also formed hollow.

• The hollow-Earthers even believe UFOs are sent from the globe’s interior by ‘guardians of the planet’ to spy on the human race. “They want to keep an eye on us and stop us from starting nuclear war. The majority of UFOs actually come from inside our planet,” says author Rodney Cluff who is spearheading the movement with thousands of followers.

• In 2007, Cluff organized a voyage to the hollow Earth via the opening in the North Pole, although the £15,000-per-head expedition was ultimately cancelled.

• In 1811, a Norwegian sailor named Olaf Jansen claimed he had sailed through an entrance to the inside of Earth at the North Pole. He claimed to have lived in the beautiful paradise for years with his father, among humans who were 12 feet tall and immune from illness.

 

A group of conspiracy theorists believe the Earth is hollow – and that superior “alien” humans, Vikings and Nazis live inside.

Instead of thinking that the world is flat, they are convinced that it actually contains a paradise at its core that resembles the Garden of Eden.

The ‘hollow-Earthers’ even believe UFOs are sent from the globe’s interior by ‘guardians of the planet’ to spy on the human race and avert a potential nuclear war.

Author Rodney Cluff is spearheading the bizarre movement which he claims has thousands of followers after a boom in numbers.

He is so confident in his theory that he organised a voyage to the hollow Earth in 2007 via an ‘opening’ in the North Pole.

Although the £15,000-per-head expedition was cancelled, Cluff is convinced that an inner paradise with its own solar system exists. They believe the same about the moon and other planets.

The conspiracy theorists believe there is another portal in the poles and one in the Himalayas – leading to a land that is home to immortal escaped Nazis from World War II and the lost Viking colonies.

Cluff told the Sun: ‘I don’t know how the flat-Earthers can be so confused. They are obviously wrong. The world is not flat – it’s hollow.’

He continued: ‘They regularly spy on us using spacecrafts and flying saucers.

‘They want to keep an eye on us and stop us from starting nuclear war. The majority of UFOs actually come from inside our planet.’

In 1811, a Norwegian sailor named Olaf Jansen claimed he had sailed through an entrance to the inside of Earth at the North Pole.

He claimed to have lived in the beautiful paradise for years with his father – among humans who were 12 feet tall and immune from illness.

Jansen told author Willis George Emerson: ‘The city of ‘Eden’ is located in what seems to be a beautiful valley, yet, in fact, it is on the loftiest mountain plateau of the Inner Continent.’

Scientists Weigh In On ‘Alien Alloys’ Stored in Las Vegas Hangars

by Brett Tingley          December 27, 2017            (mysteriousuniverse.org)

• In mid-December, The New York Times reported on a secret $22 million Pentagon program known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program which investigated reports of unidentified flying objects and analyzed artifacts and debris allegedly gathered from crashed alien craft.

• According the NYT report, the Department of Defense has a collection of “alien alloys” and other materials stored in a hangar in Las Vegas which defy scientific explanation.

• However, several chemists have come forward to say that the existence of such unknown material is impossible. Oregon State University chemist May Nyman, explained that thanks to X-ray diffraction, the crystalline structure of any metal alloy can quickly be identified.

• But do these scientists grasp the situation? We’re talking about extraterrestrtial craft from a distant star system. It is really ‘impossible’ for unknown elements or alloys to exist in the galaxy? Seven new elements were discovered right here on Earth in the last thirty years.

• [Editor’s Note] It would seem that these mainstream scientists still labor under the assumption that what we have here on Earth is all there is. Where are all of the open minded scientist who will usher us into the 21st Century?

 

UFO watchers and truth-seekers everywhere got an early Xmas present this year when The New York Times reported on a secret $22 million Pentagon program known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program. This program, the NYT article claims, investigated reports of unidentified flying objects and analyzed artifacts and debris allegedly gathered from crashed alien craft. Many of the article’s claims should sound familiar to the world of UFO research – black money, reverse-engineered alien technology, classified military reports, etc. – but one detail jumped out: according the report, the Department of Defense has a collection of “alien alloys” and other materials stored in a hangar in Las Vegas which defy scientific explanation.

One of the authors of the NYT article, Ralph Blumenthal, told an MSNBC interviewer that these materials are unlike anything found on Earth: “They have, as we reported in the paper, some material from these objects that is being studied so that scientists can find what accounts for their amazing properties, this technology of these objects, whatever they are. They’re studying it, but it’s some kind of compound that they don’t recognize.”

Claims of strange and amazing alien metals are nothing new, found in other UFO cases such as in the mysterious “memory metal” found after the Roswell incident – and throughout science fiction, of course. After these most recent claims received such widespread coverage, scientists around the world weighed in to share their thoughts on these so-called “alien alloys.” According to several chemists, the existence of such an unknown material is impossible. Oregon State University chemist May Nyman, told LiveScience that thanks to X-ray diffraction, the crystalline structure of any metal alloy can quickly be identified, “These are all very standard techniques in research labs, so if we had such mysterious metals, you could take it to any university where research is done, and they could tell you what are the elements and something about the crystalline phase within a few hours.”

Maj. Jesse Marcel showing metallic ‘debris’ from Roswell crash site, 1947

Richard Sachleben, a retired chemist and member of the American Chemical Society, says it’s “quite impossible” that there are alloys we can’t identify, “There’s not as many mysteries in science as people like to think. It’s not like we know everything — we don’t know everything. But most things we know enough about to know what we don’t know.”

Fact or Fiction: The Vrillon Incident – Proof of Alien Contact?

by Susan Leighton       December 28, 2017         (1428elm.com)

• 1977 was a banner year for signals from extraterrestrials. We received a 72-second signal from the constellation Sagittarius, and a television broadcast from an ET that called himself Vrillon.

• On August 15, 1977, Ohio University’s Big Ear telescope captured and recorded a signal from the constellation Sagittarius for a full 72 seconds. The transmission is nicknamed the “Wow” signal.

• Later that year, on November 26, 1977, Southern Television’s broadcast of the news in the UK was interrupted by what appeared to be a transmission from an alien named Vrillon, a representative of the Ashtar Galactic Command, who presented a dire warning to the inhabitants of Earth. (see the creepy 7:24 video of this transmission below) It seemed like an ordinary evening news program until half-way through when the signal was hijacked. Viewers heard a voice from another world speaking to them for six minutes.

• Skeptics say that something seems too “Hollywood” about this. One question that springs readily to mind is how did they manage to find an on-air teleprompter so that we could read their dialogue? Rather than a nebulous television broadcast, a real life visual confirmation would better prove that the aliens exist. Also, a being from another world with the ability to travel to the Earth could have picked a more prominent television station to hijack than the remote UK Southern Television network.

 

In November of 1977, Southern Television’s broadcast of the news in the UK was interrupted by what appeared to be a transmission from an alien named Vrillon. Is this real or just a hoax perpetrated by a clever techie?

“Be still now and listen, for your chance may not come again.” – Vrillon

The WOW Signal

1977 was a banner year for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence otherwise known as SETI. For a full seventy-two seconds, Ohio University’s Big Ear telescope captured and recorded a signal from the constellation Sagittarius.

The transmission was nicknamed the “Wow” signal. To this day it is still mentioned whenever the possibility of life existing on another planet rears its head. This event might be the best candidate to prove that aliens may be out there and listening to us.

While this is the more well-known example of potential contact, another one exists. According to Creepypasta Wiki, in that same year, Southern Television was broadcasting the news when an interruption from an “outside” source took over their programming.

Klaatu, Barada, Nikto

It seemed like an ordinary evening news program, nothing amiss. Until half-way through it, the signal was hijacked and then viewers heard a voice from another world speaking to them.

Tune into the ITN News feed:

Now, while I find this freaky, I do have reservations about it being an actual message from an alien race. One question that springs readily to mind is, “How did they manage to find a teleprompter so that we could see their dialogue?”

Believers could argue that they have the technology, I mean they do come from another star system so they are pretty advanced. Ok, that’s a plausible explanation but it seems to me that it would have had more impact if Vrillon would have just talked instead of making a production out of it.

Area 51 Worker Claims He Piloted a UFO and Traveled in Time

by Paul Seaburn           December 20, 2017            (mysteriousuniverse.org)

• In a video by ApexTV (see video below) Robert Miller claims to be a former Area 51 worker who was selected to be a test pilot in a secret government program at the Area 51 Groom Lake facility. On his first day at Area 51, he was met by men in black suits who informed Miller that he would test pilot a new aircraft that was reverse-engineered from an alien craft that crashed in Roswell, NM in1947.

• They put him in the craft where he sat in the pilot’s seat. There was no joystick, no steering wheel, no other controls. There was only a helmet. “They told me the craft was controlled telepathically. I was told to imagine the craft starting to float off the ground, but it didn’t work. Instead I had to imagine that I was the craft, like part of it, and I began thinking of myself floating off the ground and I felt the vibrations.”

• “I was 500ft off the ground, then the vibrations of the engine stopped. There was no ejection button on the craft. I was effectively helpless. It was plunging towards the ground and I went unconscious. The next thing I knew I was in hospital. A man in a black suit came in and explained to me what happened. He said right before the craft hit the ground, it just went, boom, disappeared.”

• “Then in the middle of the night, they heard a loud crashing noise outside, the craft had crashed in the same spot. The scientists had hypothesized that the craft had time-traveled.”

 

Since the big Pentagon/Tom deLonge UFO announcements and video releases, those who have been keeping their own secrets are coming out of the woodwork. A man claiming to be a former Area 51 worker released his own video maintaining he once piloted a reverse-engineered alien spacecraft and he may have traveled in time during the trip. Is this the opening of the disclosure floodgates (#IflewaUFOtoo) or the start of a new round of hoaxes?

In a video produced and uploaded by ApexTV, a man introduces himself as Robert Miller, gives some personal background (his father once worked at Area 51) and then warns that what he’s about to reveal will put him in danger and he’ll probably be chased or silenced by the government.

Miller claims that he was selected to be a pilot in a secret government program at the Area 51 Groom Lake facility and, when he arrived on his first day in the middle of the night, he was met by men in black suits. He was soon informed he’d be a test pilot on a new aircraft reverse-engineered from an alien craft that crashed in 1947. He briefly describes it, then gets into his alleged experiences … as best as he can remember them.

“I do remember they brought me inside the craft and up to the pilot’s seat. There was only room for one person in the giant craft. I looked around the cockpit and only saw a seat. No joystick, no steering wheel, no other controls. There was, however, a helmet. They told me the craft was controlled telepathically. I was told to imagine the craft starting to float off the ground, but it didn’t work. Instead I had to imagine that I was the craft, like part of it, and I began thinking of myself floating off the ground and I felt the vibrations.”

And …

“I was 500ft off the ground, then the vibrations of the engine stopped. There was no ejection button on the craft. I was effectively helpless. It was plunging towards the ground and I went unconscious. The next thing I knew I was in hospital. A man in a black suit came in and explained to me what happened. He said right before the craft hit the ground, it just went, boom, disappeared.”

There’s that man in a black suit again, who told him what happened next.

“Then in the middle of the night, they heard a loud crashing noise outside, the craft had crashed in the same spot. The scientists had hypothesized that the craft had time-traveled.”

Bizarre Cases of the Men in Black Caught on Film

by Brent Swancer         December 24, 2017         (mysteriousuniverse.org)

• This article presents three instances where Men In Black have been photographed or video recorded. Men In Black are the creepy human-like people, typically men dressed in black suits or trench coats and sunglasses, who threaten and stalk people with information about UFOs. There seem to be both ordinary looking government-originated MIB and the weirder alien MIB.

• In 1968 in Jersey City, NJ, UFO researcher Jack Robinson and his wife, Mary, would often come home to find that the UFO files in their apartment had been ransacked. Mary began to notice a peculiar unemotional and zombie-like stranger, dressed all in black and wearing sunglasses, lurking and staring up at their window. Their friend, Tim Beckley, managed to get a photo (seen below). This is one of the first and clearest photos of an alleged Men in Black.

• In April 2012 at a Canadian hotel, a bellboy told his manager that two strange-looking men in black suits and hats had come the day before looking for the hotel manager who had taken the day off. They freaked everybody out, talking about governments and conspiracies. They had identical faces and no facial hair – no eyebrows, no eyelashes, nothing. They looked like they wore wigs attached to their hats. Their large blue eyes never blinked. The hotel manager went to the security camera footage and, sure enough, found the MIBs’ images. (see video image below)

• A New Orleans man claimed that he’d encountered grey aliens as a kid, and ever since he’d been stalked by Men In Black. In April 2014, as he and a friend were waiting for a streetcar on a hot day, he again saw two MIBs dressed in their black suits, hats and sunglasses, loitering around the station staring at him like “twin lizards in suits”. They had oblong faces and a thin line for a mouth. They would lean in to communicate with one another, but never actually talk. Their whole vibe was cold and creepy. When the streetcar finally arrived they got into a black car parked next to the station and drove away. The man got a video of the MIBs. (see video image below) But when he sent the video file to a couple of friends, both of the friends’ phones inexplicably deleted the file.

 

For just about as long as the UFO phenomena has been around there has been the complimentary anomaly known as the notorious Men in Black. These phantom figures have long been reported to threaten and stalk certain eyewitnesses or those with insider knowledge of UFOs, usually warning them away from sharing what they have seen or know and always freaking them out. Reported from around the world, the Men in Black are typically almost universally described as being individuals, usually male, dressed in black suits or trench coats, often with sunglasses on even at night, mostly at least a bit odd-looking, and always displaying extremely bizarre behavior and mannerisms, and this is a phenomenon which my fellow Mysterious Contributor Nick Redfern has covered in far more detail than I intend to go into here. However, what has always intrigued me are the times when these frightening and creepy specters have actually been allegedly photographed or even filmed, and there are actually a few cases where this has allegedly happened. This is what I plan to delve into here, so let’s take a look.

Perhaps the earliest and best known purported image of a Man in Black comes from 1968, in Jersey City, in the United States, where a UFO researcher named Jack Robinson lived with his wife, Mary. The couple began to notice something strange going on when they would come home to find that their house seemed to have been searched or rummaged through, ransacked even, especially their files of the UFO phenomena, although there was never any sign of forced entry or burglary. Shortly after this, Mary claimed that she began to notice a peculiar stranger dressed all in black and wearing sunglasses lurking and loitering about the area of their apartment, who could sometimes be seen staring up at their window. This was all spooky to be sure, and the creeped out couple told a friend of theirs, Tim Green Beckley, about what was happening. My esteemed colleague Nick Redfern, an expert on the MIB phenomenon and author of numerous books on the matter including The Real Men in Black, talked about this stranger and what happened next in an interview with New Dawn Magazine, saying: “Mary said he had an unsettling look on his face, kind of unemotional and zombie-like. Mary happened to mention this to Tim and Jim, and because the guy appeared three days in a row, they decided to drive over early one morning and see if they could see the Man in Black for themselves. Sure enough, he was there, staring ahead, with the black sunglasses, long black coat, and enigmatic stare.”

Beckley allegedly came by one day when the enigmatic man was prowling about and managed to capture a photograph of him before he sauntered off and was gone. Although it is inconclusive to say the least, the resulting photograph is believed to be one of the first and clearest photos of one of the alleged Men in Black. What does this picture show? Is this really one of the Men in Black or just a guy in black clothes hanging out on the street? It is hard to say, and the authenticity of the photograph has been much discussed in UFO circles.

Perhaps even more impressive than this is a purported piece of video footage that is said to show two of the Men in Black, which surfaced in April of 2012 from the Aerial Phenomena Investigations Team. The incident allegedly began at a hotel in Canada, when the hotel manager was approached by one of his bellboys, who seemed to be rather unsettled about something and wanted to talk in private. He then claimed that two mysterious men dressed in black suits and trench coats had approached him, and he told the manager: “Something really weird happened here yesterday, and you weren’t here. There were a couple of guys looking for you. Well, this is really hard for me to say, but there were a couple of really strange looking men that were here, and they kind of freaked everybody out, and they were asking questions about you. And I said, ‘I’m sorry, he’s actually not working today’.”

The bizarre strangers were described as being very tall, and of exactly the same height, with very pale skin and generally looking “odd.” It was also noted that they appeared to have the same face, as if they were twins. The bellman claimed that the two strangers had not seemed to really believe that the manager wasn’t in at the time, and proceeded to look around the premises and question other employees, with one other hotel staff member who was approached saying of them: “They asked some questions about you, and they said strange things that I didn’t understand, and they were talking about governments and conspiracies, and none of it made any sense to me, but they were very, very scary. They had no facial hair, none. They had no eyebrows, no eyelashes, nothing. Their hair looked like they had a wig on, like it was attached to their hat, like it wasn’t even real. And the scariest thing, their eyes were so big, and so blue, that they almost hypnotized me a little bit. These men, they didn’t blink. Not once did I see them blink.”

The hotel manager was a bit disturbed to hear all of this, but was still skeptical about the whole thing. He claims that he then went through the security footage to check it out and found exactly what had been described, with two strange men dressed in black entering the hotel through the front doors. Is footage this the real deal? If it is not a hoax, then who were these mysterious gentlemen and what did they want? Were these really the legendary Men in Black? We will probably never know.

Even more recent is a case of supposed photographic evidence of the Men in Black that came out in 2014, according to a UFOGrid report. In the report, two witnesses came forward to tell their tale of being harassed by the Men in Black in New Orleans, Louisiana. One of the witnesses was identified by the alias Jack Smith, now in his 50s, who claims that he had been relentlessly stalked by a pair of the mysterious entities wearing identical black suits his whole life, which he surmised was due to encounters he had had with the “grey” aliens back in his youth. He says that ever since, he had been menaced by the Men in Black for decades, saying: “They have let me know that I could be found where ever I was. What was said to me was threatening and they have caused me to live in fear a lot of the time. I know the truth. My good, close friends know the truth, as well.”

On April 13, 2014, he claims that he and a friend were followed by the mysterious strangers, and that this time he managed to capture them on video staring directly at them. The day had started with Jack and his friend, Jane, going out for some sightseeing and lunch, and they found themselves waiting for a streetcar at the French Quarter’s Bienville Street station near Jackson Square. It was here where they would notice two weird looking men dressed in stuffy black suits despite the hot weather at the time, standing there milling about at the station, and Jane would say of them and their behavior: “I knew something was wrong immediately. They looked like identical twins. They were slim, and much taller than the average person. They were dressed in identical black suits, white shirts, skinny black ties, fedoras, and black sun glasses. They just looked so odd. They were pale, they were stiff, and they moved eerily in unison. They had oblong faces with a thin line for a mouth. Their whole vibe was cold and creepy. (They were) calm, but like how a reptile can appear calm. Twin lizards in suits. They leaned in simultaneously to communicate with each other. Their mouths opened slightly, but they were not talking. They were communicating something to each other, but not talking!”

The two strange men apparently waited there and repeatedly stared at Jack and Jane the entire time, but when the streetcar finally arrived after a 20-minute wait, the two men reportedly turned away and walked over to a shiny black car with a foreign license plate. The two then simply got into the vehicle and drove away. Jack had captured some of the encounter on his cell phone, and he would later relate to Jane what he thought they were, and although she was taken aback she had indeed seen it all herself so there was no denying that these were not ordinary people. Eerily, Jack later sent her the video footage he had taken, but Jane’s phone inexplicably deleted it, as well as all of the data on her SD card, which the cell phone company was unable to explain. The mysterious video also supposedly deleted itself off of another friend’s phone when Jack attempted to send it. Jack would finally send it to UFOGrid, telling them: “The thought of giving (the video) to anybody scares the hell out of me because when I tried to share it before bad things happened. The thought of what could possibly happen to me if I did release this…I honestly do fear for my life. This experience is awful. I can’t even begin to explain to you how awful it is. The very thought of stirring things up scares the heck out of me. I hope it can help someone that is struggling in silence because of MIB harassment. Whatever or whoever uses these [MIBs] to keep us in fear to control us, is despicable.”

Government Proof Surfaces That UFOs Exist

by Dave Peyton             December 27, 2017             (herald-dispatch.com)

• Recently, we discovered that the government has recently been researching UFOs as real phenomena reported by military pilots whose sightings and reports cannot be ignored. With this news, we find that UFOs are not a figment of the imaginations of the insane. UFOs are real and the reason they have come to Earth will soon be revealed (says Dave Peyton).

• For the past 70 years, the government has studied UFOs under different programs. But as soon as the public discovers them, they are shut down. All the government apparently does is to change the programs’ names to make it seem they were terminated, when they weren’t.

• The government has been hiding the true nature of UFOs fearing the public can’t handle the truth because it would bring panic and the dissolution of the current culture that could lead to revolution. But it is getting more difficult for the government to lie to us about UFOs.

• Peyton recommends the Netflix documentary “Unacknowledged”, presenting the point of view of ufologist Steven Greer who presents interviews from scientists, government officials, and astronauts as proof of the existence of extraterrestrials and UFOs.

• Greer believes it will take a revolution to pry the truth out of the top secret UFO project leaders who are hiding the truth because of, primarily, greed. Greer relates how Nikola Tesla was on the verge of learning how to draw unlimited electricity from the atmosphere and send it through the air without wires many miles away, which he claimed to have learned from extraterrestrials, but he died before he could finish the project. As soon as he died, the government raided his house and removed all of his papers. They were never seen again. Dwight Eisenhower warned us of the military-industrial complex. That complex relies on oil and natural gas too much to allow free power from the air around us coupled with an extraterrestrial force that might demand peace on earth, according to Greer.

• [Editor’s Note] An interesting point of fact is that President Trump’s uncle John G. Trump, an MIT professor during the 1940’s, was part of the FBI group that ransacked Tesla’s apartment when Tesla died in 1943. Also, Greer’s galactic view assumes that all ETs are benevolent, which is not the case.

 

Unaccustomed as I am to gloating, I am breaking that longstanding tradition with this column. I am going to gloat.

Perhaps 10 years ago, I wrote a few columns expressing my belief that UFOs are not a figment of the imaginations of the insane. I wrote a few more like that recently.

I have felt for years that UFOs, which are creations of aliens, are real and the reason they have come to earth are for peaceful purposes that will soon be revealed.

Last week, we discovered that the government is admitting that it has been researching UFOs recently, not as creations of human eccentrics but as real phenomena reported by military pilots whose sightings and reports cannot be ignored.

The government agency that researched the sightings said a few million dollars were spent on the program but was concluded several years ago.

The New York Times says that government sources report the program continues and that credible sightings are still studied.

For the past 70 years, the government has studied UFOs under different programs. But as soon as the public discovered them, they were hastily shut down. But all the government did apparently was change the programs’ names to make it seem they were terminated. It’s clear they weren’t.

Why have they hid the results of these searches into the true nature of UFOs? It has been said they fear telling us, the “unwashed little people” what they know, fearing we can’t handle the truth because it would bring panic and the dissolution of the current culture that could lead to revolution.

Well, maybe and maybe not.

About the same time the report of government UFO research was revealed, an important two-hour documentary was posted on Netflix.

It’s called “Unacknowledged” and if you have Netflix, you ought to watch it a few times.
Noted UFO expert Steven Greer offers powerful information that tends to prove the existence of extraterrestrials and the UFOs they pilot within earth’s atmosphere on a regular basis.

No proof they exist? Balderdash. Greer presents interview after interview from reputable scientists, top government officials, astronauts and more, all of whom believe and some of whom have seen UFOs, including two presidents – Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan.

It’s getting more difficult for the government to lie to us about UFOs. In fact, some believe that government and scientists are on the verge of laying the truth out there for all to see. Why? Because we can no longer be lied to. The truth is obvious.

If the Pentagon Is Hiding Aliens from Us, the Zoo Hypothesis May Explain Why

by Paul Ratner           December 26, 2017          (bigthink.com)

• Recent revelations that the Pentagon had an actual alien-hunting division have rocked conspiracy theorists, adding fuel to the long-held beliefs that the government is hiding the truth from us.

• While the government may be privy to unexplained encounters with flying objects, why haven’t the aliens made their presence known to the rest of us? If this is a universe brimming with intelligent life, ”where is everybody?” as the Nobel laureate physicist Enrico Fermi famously asked.

• The answer may be found in “The Zoo Hypothesis” proposed by the MIT radio astronomer John A. Ball in 1973. Ball said that aliens may be avoiding contact with us on purpose, so as not to interfere with our evolution and the development of our societies. By staying clear of us, they avoid interplanetary contamination. Perhaps the aliens are waiting for us to reach a certain technological or moral point before they will reveal themselves to the mass population. Or they may be simply trying to protect themselves.

• This idea of The Zoo Hypothesis presumes that aliens would want to have some relatively benevolent system of belief – perhaps a universally-accepted law about how to treat lower-level cosmic inhabitants. Maybe that’s what the Earth’s alien hunters are picking up on – random, unsanctioned interactions. It also stands to reason that if there is some kind of Universe-wide law of non-interference with other species, someone at the Pentagon could be in on it.

• [Editor’s Note]  I would say that John Ball got it half-right. The benevolent ET beings do abide by a non-interference code, just like in Star Trek. However, there are also malevolent ET beings swarming all around us who don’t reveal themselves because secrecy is a big part of their manipulative plan for humanity on Earth. And yes, the government is in on it.

 

Recent revelations that the Pentagon had an actual alien-hunting division have rocked conspiracy theorists everywhere, adding fuel to the long-held beliefs of many that the government is hiding the truth from us. Luis Elizondo, the military intel official who headed the now-defunct “Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program,” which ran from 2009 until 2012, was so convinced by what he saw that he continued his search for E.T. until this day. He now has a UFO-research startup and alerted CNN that there’s “compelling evidence” we are not alone.

While Elizondo’s evidence may be based on being privy to a number of unexplained encounters with flying objects, the aliens haven’t made their presence very clear. If the universe contains at least two trillion galaxies full of billions of stars like our sun, shouldn’t there be other complex life forms out there by now? It would only make sense. So “where is everybody?” as the Nobel laureate physicist Enrico Fermi famously asked about the absence of evidence and the high probability of alien existence.

There are certainly many speculations about whether the possibility of aliens and their potential motives. It could be that there’s been no contact because they are too far away, and we need for our technologies to catch up before we meet up. They could look like something else entirely so we can’t even perceive them yet. Or maybe we underestimate the uniqueness and preciousness of humanity and we really are alone. But an idea formulated in the 70’s takes a different swing at this compelling issue.

                         John A. Ball

The Zoo Hypothesis, proposed by the MIT radio astronomer John A. Ball in 1973, says that aliens may be avoiding contact with us on purpose, so as not to interfere with our evolution and the development of our societies. The human civilization could be essentially living in a “zoo” or a space wildlife sanctuary, where others populating the cosmos dare not go. By staying clear of us, they avoid interplanetary contamination.

Perhaps the aliens are waiting for us to reach a certain technological or moral point before they will talk to us. Or they may be simply trying to protect us and themselves. You’ve seen “Independence Day” – there may be a similar movie made thousands of light years away about us.

Pentagon UFO Study Catches Attention of Congress

by George Knapp          December 22, 2017             (good4utah.com)

• In his only television interview, former Nevada Senator Harry Reid told the I-Team about the pivotal role he played authorizing a secret Pentagon study of UFOs that ended five years ago. (see five-minute video below)

• The explosion of news coverage about the UFO issue has caught the attention of Congress. Reid’s phone started ringing immediately from people from Congress and the business community who’ve always been interested in the subject but were afraid to admit it. Reid thinks the time may be right to re-launch a formal Congressional inquiry in to the UFO phenomenon.

• “Now that it’s out, why shouldn’t they do this? Reid said.

 

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) – Former Nevada Senator Harry Reid thinks it might be time to hold congressional hearings into the mystery surrounding UFOs.

In his only television interview, Reid told the I-Team about the pivotal role he played authorizing a secret Pentagon study of UFOs that ended five years ago.

The project was based in Nevada, carried out by Las Vegas businessman who is no stranger to paranormal investigations. In fact, Robert Bigelow’s mysterious Skinwalker ranch played a role in the Pentagon investigation.

A picturesque ranch in northeastern Utah, shunned by its Native American neighbors and long considered a hotbed of UFO sightings and other unexplained phenomena, played a pivotal role in the creation of the once-secret Pentagon study of unknown aerial objects.

In the mid 90s, Las Vegas billionaire Robert Bigelow bought the property and sent in his research team, the National Institute for Discovery Science, or NIDS, to study the ranch and the larger Uintah Basin.
Over the next 10 years, NIDS scientists had dramatic encounters with the unknown, including daylight mutilations of livestock, mysterious aircraft, and discarnate entities.

“The ranch is not just UFOs. Performances of anomalies go back many years,” said Robert Bigelow.
The I-Team’s 2007 conversation with Bigelow, his first on camera interview on any subject, never aired but he told us that his NIDS team experienced more than 100 baffling encounters, though they had no idea what was behind it.

“And that we don’t have to worry about aliens coming and taking us away. That’s for somebody else to talk about,” said former U.S. Senator Harry Reid.

When Senator Reid and colleagues authorized funding for a Pentagon study, they made a point of saying it was not a search for little green men. The primary aim was to identify, analyze, and eventually duplicate the other worldly technology that had been demonstrated in multiple dramatic encounters involving the U.S. military.

“The phenomenon is real,” said Luis Elizondo, former Pentagon official.

The man who ran the Pentagon’s study, Luis Elizondo, resigned in October and has since said the technology of these craft is beyond anything known on earth, but he declines to guess where it originates. No one involved wants to mention space aliens, for obvious reasons.

“I’m not into that,” Reid said. “I’m interested in science, what’s going on in our world.”

What Neil deGrasse Tyson Completely Fails to Acknowledge About UFOs & Potnential ETs

by Arjun Walia            December 22, 2017            (collective-evolution.com)

• The Pentagon’s recent admission of having a program that studies UFOs, not to mention a cockpit video of a Navy jet chasing a UFO, has created a lot of buzz in the media. But prior to this blockbuster revelation, there have been millions of documents released via governments, military, and intelligence agencies that clearly document the fact that these things are tracked on radar, and that military pilots are often scrambled to take a closer look. When our pilots come too close to these craft and they perform evasive maneuvers or shut down the pilots’ critical instrumentation and electronic equipment, it’s clear we are looking at an intelligently controlled and highly sophisticated piece of technology.

• Hundreds of academics and scientists have published articles in peer-reviewed journals, and given lectures around the world regarding the scientific data and evidence that’s already been obtained from the UFO phenomenon.

• The recently retired director of the Pentagon UFO program, Louis Elizondo, confirmed on CNN that there is a great deal of evidence suggesting we are currently being visited, and have been visited, by intelligent extraterrestrials. Even the pilot of the UFO video released by the Pentagon stated his belief that this particular object was “not from this world.”

• When you have several hundred individuals who’ve held high ranking positions within the military, the academic community, and within intelligence agencies as well as private military contractors like Lockheed Martin, telling us that some of these UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial in origin and are much more technologically advanced than our own, it’s not something to ignore.

• But when celebrity astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson was asked about intelligent extraterrestrials visiting Earth in a CNN interview (see 5:27 video below), Tyson responded, “The evidence is so paltry for aliens to visit Earth, I have no further interest. .   It seems to me, aliens who visited us . . . would manifest more convincingly than fuzzy video, and there’s no reason to assume that because you don’t know what you’re looking it equals aliens that visited us from outer space.”

• Tyson may be correct that we don’t know what the UFO is for certain, but that doesn’t mean we should therefore ignore the phenomenon. The fact that Tyson doesn’t even acknowledge the operating characteristics of this craft (in the cockpit video) goes to show that he doesn’t really recognize the significance and implications of such sightings. Tyson says that, from a scientific standpoint, none of this constitutes evidence at all.

• Tyson clearly hasn’t done his research or examined the evidence. The fact that Neil deGrasse Tyson has been popularized, given so much credibility and a mainstream media platform, is dangerous.

• [Editor’s note] Is Neil deGrasse Tyson simply a paid shill for the media cabal’s disinformation campaign? Is he trying to preserve his head-in-the-sand point-of-view because this is what his top-selling books say and he wants to stay relevant? Or is he just happily ignorant due to his intentional refusal to actually look at the plethora of UFO evidence out there? When the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon is finally revealed to be true, will Tyson publicly admit what a close-minded fool he really is and go away?

 

“People I think have conflated the concept of a UFO with whether we’re [being] visited by aliens. UFO means unidentified flying object, this is a highly non-specific term, it is so non-specific it admits you don’t know what you’re looking at. . . . The universe brims with mysteries, just because you don’t know what it is you’re looking at, doesn’t mean it’s intelligent aliens from another planet.”

When asked about his skepticism about intelligent extraterrestrials visiting Earth, Tyson responded, “The evidence is so paltry for aliens to visit Earth, I have no further interest. . . . It seems to me, aliens who visited us . . . would manifest more convincingly than fuzzy video, and there’s no reason to assume that because you don’t know what you’re looking it equals aliens that visited us from outer space.”

The Pentagon’s recent admission of having a program that studies UFOs has created a lot of buzz in the media. It’s official disclosure, but there have been millions of documents released via governments, military, and intelligence agencies that clearly document the fact that these things show up in our atmosphere all the time, that they are tracked on radar, and that military pilots are often scrambled to take a closer look.

The Pentagon claims the program was shut down, but the recently retired director of the program, Louis Elizondo, says otherwise. He also recently appeared on CNN stating that there is a great deal of evidence suggesting we are currently being visited, and have been visited, by intelligent extraterrestrials. Even the pilot of the UFO video released by the Pentagon stated his belief that this particular object was “not from this world.”

What Neil Is Not Acknowledging

First off, Neil is not recognizing that this is a common occurrence, and has been for decades. He is not recognizing that it’s quite clear we are looking at an intelligently controlled and highly sophisticated piece of technology.

Encounters with UFOs have been tracked on radar as well as visually confirmed thousands of times, and this is just one example of multiple encounters, many of which are far more extraordinary than this one.

That being said, this one was quite extraordinary. We are talking about objects travelling at tremendous speeds and performing maneuvers that no known aircraft can perform, some of which even defy our current understanding of physics.

One of the pilots of this particular encounter, David Fravor, describes his experience as follows: “As I got close to it, probably within a mile to half a mile, it rapidly accelerated to the south and and disappeared in less than two seconds. . . . It had no wings . . . there’s no rotors. . . . This was extremely abrupt. Like a ping pong ball bouncing off the wall, it would hit and go the other way and change directions at will. And then the ability to hover over the water and then start a vertical climb from basically zero up towards about 12,000 feet, and then accelerate in less than two seconds and disappear — it is something I had never seen in my life.”

Neil may be right about the fact that we don’t know what it is, but that doesn’t mean we should therefore ignore the phenomenon. He also fails to provide any alternative explanations. He doesn’t even speculate on the matter, which is weird because we’re talking about, again, an object performing never-before-seen maneuvers, displaying extremely technologically advanced capabilities.

It may not be ET, but if not, where is it from? From what we’ve been told, the military doesn’t even have access to this type of technology. If it did come from the military, how would the military pilots and their superiors not know about a craft in their vicinity, given the fact that they are themselves representatives of the military?

Is the craft manmade, perhaps from a rogue aerospace program that not even the U.S. military knows about? Who knows. But the fact that Tyson didn’t even acknowledge the operating characteristics of this craft goes to show that he doesn’t really recognize the significance and implications of such sightings.

Another interesting fact is that it is only when our pilots come too close to these craft that they perform evasive maneuvers or shut down the pilots’ critical instrumentation and electronic equipment.

“The Evidence Is So Paltry”

“Intelligent beings from other star systems have been and are visiting our planet Earth. They are variously referred to as Visitors, Others, Star People, ETs, etc. . . . They are visiting Earth NOW; this is not a matter of conjecture or wistful thinking.” – Theodor C. Loder III, Phd, Professor Emeritus of Earth Sciences, University of New Hampshire.

Prior to the official disclosure of UFOs, and mind you, not just any unidentified flying objects, but again, objects travelling at tremendous speeds and performing maneuvers that no known aircraft can, skeptics like Tyson stated that the evidence for “UFOs” was practically nonexistent.

This simply isn’t true. The evidence for UFOs, before their official disclosure, was abundant. This really showed how little Neil had researched the topic. As a wise man once said, “Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance,” and that’s exactly what’s happening here.

“It is my thesis that flying saucers are real and that they are space ships from another solar system. I think that they possibly are manned by intelligent observers who are members of a race that may have been investigating our Earth for centuries.” – Hermann Oberth, one of the founding fathers of modern rocketry.

He stated that, from a scientific standpoint, what we had at the time did not really constitute evidence at all. Meanwhile, hundreds of other academics and scientists were publishing articles in peer-reviewed journals, and giving lectures around the world regarding the scientific data and evidence that’s already been obtained from the UFO phenomenon.

The fact that Neil has been popularized, and given a mainstream media platform, is dangerous. Because he’s been given so much credibility, his words have the power to influence the minds and perception of anyone watching.

Well, when it comes to the extraterrestrial hypothesis, there is, as a former NASA astronaut and Princeton physics professor once said, “abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been visiting us for a very long time.”

To portray the extraterrestrial hypothesis as ridiculous, which Neil does, is simply ignorant. From a scientific standpoint, witness testimony is not credible, but when you have several hundred individuals who’ve held high ranking positions within the military, the academic community, and within intelligence agencies as well as private military contractors like Lockheed Martin, telling us that some of these UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial in origin, and are much more technologically advanced than our own, it’s not something to ignore.

“There is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, by other civilizations. Who they are, where they are from, and what they want should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not be the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.” – Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, Former Chief of Defence Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee.

Neill is also not taking into account the Black Budget, which funds programs that have no oversight from Congress, just as described by a 1997 U.S. senate report.

Does that mean the scientific developments within this world are not real because we don’t have access to them? Absolutely not.

Existence of UFOs ‘Proven Beyond Reasonable Doubt’, Says Former Chief of Real-Life ‘X-Files’ Department at the Pentagon

December 24, 2017            (dailymail.co.uk)

• The former head of a Pentagon UFO Program unveiled on December 16th, Luis Elizondo, said that UFOs visiting Earth has been ‘proved beyond reasonable doubt’. Elizondo told The Independent: “I think it’s pretty clear this is not us, and it’s not anyone else. So one has to ask the question where they’re from.”

• In addition to interviewing pilots and military personnel who reported experiences with UFOs ‘acting in a way that seemed to be beyond human beings’ current capabilities’, the program also investigated the science of ‘wormholes’ and ‘warp drives’. Elizondo further stated that UFOs have often been found near nuclear and power plants.

• Elizondo said he resigned from the Pentagon program in October because he believes the government needs to provide more funding and support to UFO research. He immediately joined up with Tom DeLonge to form ‘To The Stars Academy’.

• The DoD UFO program was created by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), with the support of the late Senators Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) and Republican Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), based upon their fears that the unexplained phenomena could be advanced weaponry or technology from foreign states such as Russia or China which could threaten the US, and therefore posed a national security issue.

• After seven years, and ‘very little to show for it’, Reid decided it wasn’t worth continuing. The program ostensibly ceased in 2012, but according to its backers the program remains in existence and officials continue to investigate UFO episodes brought to their attention by service members.

• Speaking to CNN, Elizondo said: ‘My personal belief is that there is very compelling evidence that we may not be alone. (see video below)

 

The former head of a Pentagon program to understand the mysteries of UFOs has said that such objects visiting Earth had been ‘proved beyond reasonable doubt’.

Speaking to The Telegraph, former Intelligence Officer Luis Elizondo said that unidentified flying objects of advanced capabilities have been seen ‘lots’ over the years.

Elizondo, who presided over the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program until two months ago, told The Independent: ‘I think it’s pretty clear this is not us, and it’s not anyone else, so one has to ask the question where they’re from.’

The program, inaugurated in 2007 and funded with $22million of government funds, was revealed to the public earlier this month.

Elizondo further said that UFOs have often been found near nuclear and power plants.

He said he resigned from his government job because he believes the government needs to provide more funding and support.

The Defense Department finally acknowledged the existence of its long-secret UFO investigation program earlier this month, when officials shifted attention and funding to other priorities.

Its initial funding came largely at the request of former Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid, the Nevada Democrat long known for his enthusiasm for space phenomena, the newspaper said.

The program was created by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), with the support of the late Senators Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) and Republican Ted Stevens (R-Alaska).

Their fears were that the unexplained phenomena could be advanced weaponry or technology from foreign states such as Russia or China which could threaten the US.

‘Was this China or Russia trying to do something or has some propulsion system we are not familiar with?’ a former staffer told Politico.

While Elizondo, who ran the initiative, stressed he wanted to take the ‘voodoo’ out of a ‘voodoo science,’ the program investigated some issues that sound like they’re straight out of a science fiction movie.

They included ‘wormholes’ and ‘warp drives’ as well as interviewing pilots and military personnel who reported experiences with UFOs.

Elizondo said that many of the Navy pilots described aircraft moving and acting in a way that seemed to be beyond human beings’ current capabilities.

‘We had never seen anything like it,’ he said.

The former staffer said that Reid believed there could be a valid national security issue and so agreed to fund the program.

But after a few years, and very little to show for it, Reid decided it wasn’t worth continuing.

‘After a while the consensus was we really couldn’t find anything of substance,’ he recalled. ‘They produced reams of paperwork. After all of that there was really nothing there that we could find. It all pretty much dissolved from that reason alone—and the interest level was losing steam. We only did it a couple years.’

‘There was really nothing there that we could justify using taxpayer money,’ he added. ‘We let it die a slow death. It was well spent money in the beginning.’

According to the Pentagon, the program ‘ended in the 2012 timeframe.’

Yet according to its backers, the program remains in existence and officials continue to investigate UFO episodes brought to their attention by service members, the newspaper said.
The Pentagon openly acknowledged the fate of the program in response to a Reuters query.
‘The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program ended in the 2012 timeframe,’ Pentagon spokeswoman Laura Ochoa said in an email.

‘It was determined that there were other, higher priority issues that merited funding and it was in the best interest of the DoD to make a change,’ she said.

But the Pentagon was less clear about whether the UFO program continues to hover somewhere in the vast universe of the U.S. defense establishment.

‘The DoD takes seriously all threats and potential threats to our people, our assets, and our mission and takes action whenever credible information is developed,’ Ochoa said.

What is less in doubt is former senator Reid’s enthusiasm for UFOs and his likely role in launching the Pentagon initiative to identify advanced aviation threats.

‘If you’ve talked to Harry Reid for 60 seconds then it’s the least surprising thing ever that he loves UFOs and got an earmark to study them,’ former Reid spokeswoman Kristen Orthman said in a message on Twitter.

Or as Reid himself said in a tweet that linked to the Times’ story: ‘The truth is out there. Seriously.’

Elizondo has since joined former Blink 182 vocalist Tom DeLonge’s company To The Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences – described as a ‘public benefit corporation’ that has ‘mobilized a team of the most experienced, connected and passionately curious minds from the U.S. intelligence community, including the CIA, Department of Defense, who have been operating under the shadows of top-secrecy for decades.’

Speaking to CNN, he said: ‘My personal belief is that there is very compelling evidence that we may not be alone.

Everything We Learned About (Probable) Aliens in 2017

by Lauren Tousignant          December 27, 2017            (nypost.com)

• 2017 marks the most convincing year yet for the belief that life must exist beyond our planet. Believing in extraterrestrial is no longer reserved for conspiracy theorists in tinfoil hats. Nearly half of humanity believes aliens are out there, according to a recent study.
Here are five stories that prove it’s only a matter of time before we meet our celestial neighbors:

• 1. Scientists keep finding Earth-like planets – In 2017 there were dozens of discoveries of earth-like “Super Earths” contained within a planetary “Goldilocks zone” where conditions are just right for water to exist.

• 2. Reported UFO sightings are at their highest ever – A George Mason University doctoral student found that UFO sightings have hit an all-time high and that most of the sightings come from the US. Since the first recorded UFO flew over Portugal in 1905, there have been at least 104,947 sightings. Annual sightings have spiked from about 5,000 in 1980 to about 45,000 in 2010.

• 3. Life may already be hanging out in our own solar system – NASA scientists revealed that ice planets, like Pluto and Neptune, could harbor life deep beneath their icy surfaces. Their moons could have enough gravitational pull to create energy beneath the planet’s surface – generating heat and allowing a sub-surface ocean to exist.

• 4. NASA hired someone to protect us from aliens – In August, NASA posted a job listing for a ‘planetary protection officer’ to make sure that spacecraft and astronauts don’t contaminate other worlds and don’t bring back anything that could contaminate our own. The job pays between $124,406 and $187,000 and is only one of two full-time posts in the world. The applications closed on August 14th and there’s been no update on who landed the gig.

• 5. The Pentagon has receipts – In December, the Pentagon released footage of Navy F/A-18F ‘Hornet’ pilots off the coast of California tracking a glowing white orb rotating while the pilots try to figure out what they’re looking at. Cmdr. David Fravor, one of the pilots who saw the UFO, said, “It was a real object, it exists and I saw it.” It resembled a white Tic Tac and was “something not from the earth.”

 

The truth is probably already here.

The evidence that aliens exist has been slowly mounting for decades and 2017 marks the most convincing year yet for the belief that life must exist beyond our planet.

And believing in the extraterrestrial is no longer reserved for conspiracy theorists in tinfoil hats. Nearly half of humanity believes aliens are out there, according to a recent study, and in June, the European Space Agency signed off on a $668 million mission that will hunt for other life forms 932,000 miles into space. Meanwhile, scientists continue to be baffled by a bunch of mysterious signals that keep emanating from faraway galaxies.

Here are five stories that prove it’s only a matter of time before we meet our celestial neighbors.

1. Scientists keep finding Earth-like planets

Scientists have long presumed that if we’re going to find life on other planets, we’re going to find them in the “Goldilocks zone” — spots throughout the universe where conditions are just right for water to exist.

The intergalactic search for our neighbors grew more promising in 2017 with dozens more “super-Earth” discoveries.

And even though we don’t yet have the technology to reach these planets, 2017’s “super-Earths” have included:
• Wolf 1061c: Discovered in January, located 14 light years away

• LHS 1140b: Discovered in April, located 40 light years away

• Ross 128b: Discovered in November, located 11 light years away

• K2-18b: Discovered in December, located 111 light years away

In June, NASA’s Kepler telescope found 10 “Goldilocks-zone” planets and in October, the telescope found 20 more “hiding in plain sight.”

“Are we alone?” Kepler scientist Mario Perez asked at a news conference following NASA’s June discovery. “Maybe Kepler today has told us indirectly, although we need confirmation, that we are probably not alone.”

2. Reported UFO sightings are at their highest ever

In February, a doctoral student found that UFO sightings have hit an all-time high and that most of the sightings come from the US.

Sam Manafort, who’s studying Human Factors and Applied Cognition at George Mason University, crunched numbers from the National UFO Reporting Center. In his report, he found that since the first recorded UFO flew over Portugal in 1905, there have been at least 104,947 sightings.

But the number of yearly sightings has spiked dramatically from about 5,000 in 1980 to about 45,000 in 2010. In the US alone, there are 2,500 sightings per 10 million people — something Manafort attributes to the fact that most of the US has access to the internet.

Most of the sightings have come from the West and Northwest, an area that lines up with America’s “UFO highway” — a latitude line across the U.S. that a pair of sibling alien hunters believes is an entrance for extraterrestrial spacecraft.

The duo, whose book “37th Parallel” is being made into a movie, state that during years-long travels across the US, the most bizarre paranormal phenomenon took place along the 37th latitude line.

This line stretches from California through Nevada, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky and across to Virginia.

3. Life may already be hanging out in our own solar system

Pluto might have been demoted from a planet to a dwarf planet back in 2006, but the icy world could be holding a lot more than hurt feelings.

In November, NASA scientists revealed that ice planets, like Pluto and Neptune, could harbor life deep beneath their icy surfaces, thanks to their moons.

Dubbed Trans-Neptunian objects, these celestial bodies might benefit from tidal heating. This means that these icy planets have moons with enough gravitational pull to create energy beneath the planet’s surface — which generates heat and allows a sub-surface ocean to exist. The findings were published in Icarus.

“These objects need to be considered as potential reservoirs of water and life,” Prabal Saxena of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center said in a press release. “If our study is correct, we now may have more places in our solar system that possess some of the critical elements for extraterrestrial life.”

A separate study published in May suggested that Pluto, Saturn’s moon Enceladus and Jupiter’s moon Europa may have life due to a different process known as radiolysis. And in December, the American Geophysical Union reported that tectonic activity on Europacould be feeding life to Jupiter’s icy moon.

4. NASA hired someone to protect us from aliens

In August, NASA posted a job listing that quickly went viral.

The space agency was looking to hire a planetary protection officer — someone in charge of making sure that spacecraft and astronauts don’t contaminate other worlds and don’t bring back anything that could contaminate our own.

“NASA maintains policies for planetary protection applicable to all space flight missions that may intentionally or unintentionally carry Earth organisms and organic constituents to the planets or other solar system bodies and any mission employing spacecraft, which are intended to return to Earth and its biosphere with samples from extraterrestrial targets of exploration,” the job description stated.

US Navy Pilot Who Flew Close to UFO Discloses: A Technology That’s “Not From This World”

by Arjun Walia          December 21, 2017          (collective-evolution.com)

• For the first time in history the United States has released official footage of a real UFO – referring to the recent cockpit video showing an encounter between two Navy F/A-18 Super Hornets and an unknown “tic tac” object – apparently one of multiple objects travelling against 120 mph wind at a speed faster than the jet interceptors.

• Within the mainstream, this is new information and has never before received this type of serious inquiry and revelation.

• The pilot of one of the F/A-18 Super Hornets, David Fravor, states, “As I got close to it, probably within a mile to half a mile, it rapidly accelerated to the south and disappeared in less than two seconds…It had no wings…there’s no roters (like a helicopter)…this was extremely abrupt like a ping pong ball bouncing off the wall it would hit and go the other way and change directions at will. And then the ability to hover over the water and then start a vertical climb from basically zero up towards about 12000 feet, and then accelerate in less than 2 seconds and disappear – it is something I had never seen in my life.” (see five-minute video of former Navy pilot David Fravor below)

• When it comes to information sharing, mainstream media and the government have always used, distorted and completely changed information to shape the perception of world events such as 9/11. This is why it’s important to exercise caution and critical thinking. Is the existence of UFOs being used for an ulterior motive the same way “weapons of mass destruction” and terrorism was used to push political global elitist agenda?

• [Editor’s Note] This UFO video and accompanying information comes from Tom DeLonge and his group of former CIA, US Air Force, and Pentagon officials now calling themselves ‘To The Stars Academy’. In a December 24, 2017 article by Michael Salla in Exopolitics.org, Dr Salla points out that Tom DeLonge’s 2016 “fiction-based-on-fact” book, Sekret Machines, downplays any existence of extraterrestrials, but attributes both the United States’ and Russia’s development of anti-gravity propulsion technology to the reverse-engineering of advanced Nazi German technology. Dr Salla suggests that this recent DOD disclosure may be a “limited hangout” partial disclosure, setting things up to eventually identify the tic tac UFO as Russian in order to obfuscate the government elite’s existing and far-reaching Secret Space Program, and to fuel a new round of anti-Russian (and anti-Chinese) hysteria in the United States to induce massive expenditures for the construction of a new anti-gravity fleet of spacecraft to counter this new Russian technology.

 

The US Department of Defense recently admitted to running, tracking, monitoring and sending military jet pilots to intercept UFOs. Although they claim the program ended a few years ago, insiders from within the Pentagon, including the former director of the program, Louis Elizondo, say the program is still in operation today.

Regardless, for the first time in history the United States has released official footage of a real UFO. The video shows an encounter between two Navy F/A-18 Super Hornets and an unknown object. This has hit multiple mainstream media platforms, and it’s concerning because it’s been more than a decade and there are now millions of pages of documents from military, governments and intelligence agencies detailing hundreds, if not thousands of UFO encounters.

These encounters have had multiple factors in common, one being the fact that they can travel at speeds no known air-craft in the world can. Secondly, they perform maneuvers that no known air-craft can perform, and last but not least, jet interceptors, when approaching the vicinity of the object, commonly experience critical instrumentation (weapons and electronic equipment) failure.

This may be new information within the mainstream, as it’s never received this type of serious inquiry and revelation before, but for those who have been researching this subject for a long time, this type of thing is a common occurrence, and the most shocking footage that’s been held by the Department of Defense and governments of this world is, most likely, a lot more eye opening.

That being said, the incident below is also quite extraordinary. This is one of multiple objects from the video, which was travelling against 120 mph wind at a speed faster than the jet interceptors.

The one this pilot is describing is a glowing white bright object, approximately the size of an airplane. He also mentions seeing two other smaller objects which came out of the bigger one.

“As I got close to it, probably within a mile to half a mile, it rapidly accelerated to the south and and disappeared in less than two seconds…It had no wings…there’s no roters (like a helicopter)…this was extremely abrupt like a ping pong ball bouncing off the wall it would hit and go the other way and change directions at will. And then the ability to hover over the water and then start a vertical climb from basically zero up towards about 12000 feet, and then accelerate in less than 2 seconds and disappear – it is something I had never seen in my life.”

The pilot’s name is David Fravor.

You’re Not Crazy if You Believe in UFOs. Let’s Discuss in Scientific Terms.

by Alexandra Ossola           December 20, 2017               (futurism.com)

• Now that we have government-sanctioned evidence of intelligent non-terrestrial life by the December 16th revelations of a Pentagon-run UFO program and cockpit audio/video of a Navy F/A-18F Super Hornets chasing a pill-shaped UFO in 2004, the question become what will it take to overcome the deeply engrianed stigma and take the reality of UFOs seriously?

• With sixty years of folklore and Hollywood trivializing the subject in the minds of the general public, believing in the paranormal has become shorthand for crazy. Former Senate Majority Leader and funding sponsor for the Pentagon UFO program, Harry Reid, said, “ sightings were not often reported up the military’s chain of command because service members were afraid they would be laughed at or stigmatized.” Luis Elizondo, the CIA official formerly in charge of the Pentagon UFO program said, “…that stigma is pretty powerful. It stops a lot of people from reporting something maybe they would normally report.”

• But government officials are no longer hiding their belief that extraterrestrials might be out there. Could this be a turning point for once-fringe UFO community who have been telling anyone who would listen about this remarkable moment in human history?

• According to a 2015 poll, more than half of Americans believe that aliens exist. Scientists have evaluated what distinguishes believers and non-believers and didn’t find much difference between them. Conspiracy theories about UFOs, in particular, are pretty widespread, and they have a psychological appeal that goes against the stereotype of weirdos wearing tinfoil hats. Most of the time, people who believe are psychologically normal.

• Now that information about the Pentegon UFO program (officially called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program) has spilled out, it raises the hope that the government might release evidence that could more clearly indicate the presence of extraterrestrials. Chase Kloetzke, the deputy director of investigations at MUFON, believes that the government does have a smoking gun. There is “physical material [the government] has been holding and analyzing… We’re pushing down the doors. We’re trying to breach this information,” says Kloetzke.

• Opinions vary on how much evidence is enough to prove the existence of extraterrestrials. Says Chase Kloetzke, “I think most people are going to need a craft to land in Central Park [to believe UFOs are real]”.

 

On December 16, the New York Times published two stories that read almost like science fiction. For at least five years, the Defense Department housed a $22-million, clandestine program to investigate UFOs. Military pilots had sent in reports of objects they observed that moved in unfamiliar ways; the mission of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, as it was called, was to investigate those claims to see if there was truly something otherworldly behind those sightings.

It’s unclear just how many reports pilots had filed to the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, but people who have come forward about the program have made it clear that there would have been a lot more reports filed if it hadn’t been for one thing: stigma. “The sightings were not often reported up the military’s chain of command, [former senator Harry Reid] said, because service members were afraid they would be laughed at or stigmatized,” one Times piece reads.

American culture is steeped in depictions of what would happen if sophisticated aliens visited Earth, from E.T. to Arrival to Independence Day. Some are more hackneyed than others; some are downright terrifying. But outside the clear genres of fiction, most conversations about UFOs happen online, and with varying degrees of vehemence.

Let’s face it — believing in the paranormal has become shorthand for crazy.

“60 years of folklorization and Hollywood production have, in the minds of the general public, definitely trivialized the subject. It has become a ‘standard’ consumer product,” Jean-Christophe Doré, the technical manager for UFO-SCIENCE, the French association that aims to scientifically evaluate aspects of UFO phenomena, tells Futurism.

But to some, that association might be changing. Luis Elizondo, the military official formerly in charge of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, told The New York Times’ Daily podcast: “I think we’re entering an era of actual evidence. We’ve reached a moment of critical mass of credible witnesses, and these are witnesses that are in charge of multi-million-dollar weapon platforms with, in some cases, the highest level of security clearances and in some cases they’re trained observers. When these individuals are trying to report something, ‘Hey I saw this when I was flying,’ that can be turned around and people say ‘hey look if you’re crazy, there goes your flight status.’ Or all of a sudden commander so-and-so in charge of this very elite fighter wing will no longer be taken seriously. In fact, people are going to start to judge whether or not maybe our friend here might not be a little crazy, or maybe some loose screws. That’s always a threat to these people’s career. And let’s face it, these people have to pay their taxes, they have to pay their mortgages, they have families, they’re putting their kids through school. And frankly, they’re just really good patriots and they want to do the right thing. And that stigma is pretty powerful. It stops a lot of people from reporting something maybe they would normally report.”

Government officials are no longer hiding their belief that extraterrestrials might be out there. Could this be a turning point for once-fringe communities and open doors for those looking to bring scientific rigor to the quest to understand UFOs?

Logical Fallacy

Most phenomena thought to be the doings of extraterrestrials are eventually explained. Take Project Blue Book, for example, the U.S. government’s program to investigate unidentified flying objects that ran from 1947 until 1969. Of the more than 12,000 reported sightings, investigators found out the real (not paranormal) story for all but 700 or so. That’s a pretty good percentage, says Joe Nickell, senior research fellow at the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry and paranormal investigator — about as much as you’d expect from any other scientific discipline. “A lot of these cases are never going to be solved because I don’t know what you think you saw 10 years ago. They’re not investigatable,” Nickell tells Futurism.

In other disciplines, a certain amount of uncertainty will mean that more studies are needed to definitely prove a link. But that’s not what happens with UFOs. “We spend all these years, virtually our entire lives (it’s what I’m doing with mine), and we’re solving most cases. We’re down to, say, 5 percent [that we can’t explain], and we’re arguing over the 5 percent,” Nickell says. You give someone a level-headed, thorough, earthly explanation for a particular report, and they’ll just respond, “But what about this other one?” This is, as Nickell points out, an argument from ignorance — in essence, X must be true because you can’t prove that X is false. “Why don’t we assume that, if we can explain 95 percent, that if we knew the answer, it would fall into the same category as the others?” Nickell says.

Belief in extraterrestrials is fueled by a lack of evidence, not its presence. For some people, that’s enough.

The Psychology Of Believers

More than half of Americans believe that aliens exist, according to a 2015 poll. Scientists have evaluated what distinguishes believers and non-believers and didn’t find much, the Conversation notes. But people that believe they had an abduction experience, perhaps a more extreme form of belief, are more likely to have fantasy-prone personalities, have experienced childhood trauma, or be prone to hypnosisthat can make them suggestible to false memories, studies have shown. That doesn’t mean they’re lying about their experiences — they often genuinely believe they happened — but those experiences were often not quite what the individuals thought they were.

What distinguishes people who believe in Big Foot, for example, from those who believe in UFOs? It’s the suspicion of government involvement, Nickell says. More people believe in conspiracies than ever; if someone were looking to find a black-ops government program and a conspiracy to keep it secret, they’d find the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program.

“I think, for most people who believe in these UFO claims, it’s tied up with conspiracy. If you want to believe that UFOs are visiting the planet, there kind of has to be a cover up,” Rob Brotherton, a psychology professor at Barnard College and the author of Suspicious Minds: Why We Believe Conspiracy Theories, tells Futurism. And because they’re built on secrecy, it’s really hard to disprove a conspiracy theory, Brotherton points out.

Conspiracy theories about UFOs, in particular, are pretty widespread, and they have a psychological appeal that goes against the stereotype of weirdos wearing tinfoil hats. Conspiracy theories rely on the same pattern-recognition techniques we use in our daily lives, and in science as well. “Conspiracy theories make for great stories, they’re tantalizing, mysteries not yet fully solved. Your brain is like, ‘What’s up with that?’ it’s not satisfied until it knows if these things are related.”

Most of the time, people who believe in them are psychologically normal. But the belief that the government or aliens are specifically pursuing you as an individual — a me and not an us focus —might indicate a psychiatric disorder like schizophrenia, though that would be one of a number of symptoms.

“It’s not impossible [that extraterrestrials are visiting Earth],” Brotherton says. “Maybe they’re technologically advanced, maybe they are able to make it here. That’s not beyond the realms of possibility; it doesn’t defy the laws of physics necessarily. It’s worth keeping an eye out for this stuff.”

Worthy of Pursuit

Science hinges on discovery and the pursuit to understand the unknown. It’s not out of the realm of possibility, then, that some of these UFO reports are worthy of rigorous investigation. They could reveal something new about atmospheric phenomena, or physics, or, yes, possibly even extraterrestrials.

It’s not easy to separate the mysterious sightings, the ones that could yield something scientifically interesting, from the sightings that can quickly be resolved. “These are, almost by definition, unusual things to start with, something in the sky that we don’t know what it is. We don’t see them every night. So we have no idea [at the beginning of an investigation] if they’re going to be productive or not,” Nickell says.

Crowds Stop in the Street and Stare Up at the Sky as Mesmerising ‘Giant White Ball’ UFOs Are Seen Floating Above Mexico City

by Alex Greenland and Jessica Green        December 19, 2017       (dailymail.co.uk)

•   Crowds in Mexico City stopped and stared at the sky December 15th at five “white ball” UFOs that hovered in the sky for the better part of an hour.    (see video)

 

Crowds in Mexico City stopped and stared at the sky as hypnotising ‘giant white ball’ UFOs hovered above them.

In the startling footage five white balls are seen above the Mexican capital.  Hundreds of people gathered on pavements transfixed by the unexplained sight.

In the footage from the afternoon of December 15 members of the public gather along a roadside and point up at the baffling circles of light.

One eyewitness told local media: ‘There were five balls and they were moving, now they are moving around together. ‘I have been here for 20 minutes and they are still there.’ 

So far there has been no official explanation for the phenomena.

Trillions of Taxpayer Dollars Gone Missing. The Pentagon To Be Audited For the First Time Ever.

by Arjun Walia        December 14, 2017          (collective-evolution.com)

• The Pentagon’s news service recently reported that, “The Defense Department is starting the first agency-wide financial audit in its history.” NPR says that the Department of Defense’s Office of the Inspector General has “hired independent public accounting firms to conduct audits of individual components — the Army, Navy, Air Force, agencies, activities and more — as well as a department-wide consolidated audit to summarize all results and conclusions.”

• The Pentagon says that the audit is going to start right away, and will now occur annually. But according to the Director of Audit, Rafael Degennaro, over the past 20 years the Pentagon has broken every promise to Congress about when an audit would happen.

• According to The Free Thought Project, beginning in 1996 all federal agencies were required by law to conduct regular financial audits, but the Pentagon has never complied. This means that, for the past 20 years, it’s never accounted for the trillions in taxpayer funds it has spent. In fact, a 2013 investigation by Scot Paltrow for Reuters uncovered that the Pentagon has been “fudging” numbers for a long time, and it’s simply considered to be standard procedure.

• Linda Woodford spent the last 15 years of her career in the Cleveland office of the Defense Finance and Accounting Service. Her job, as one of many accountants, was to reconcile the Navy’s monthly financial books with the US Treasury’s books. Every month there were always numbers that didn’t add up and had no explanation.

• After two years of investigation, Washington Post journalists Dana Priest and William Arkin concluded in 2010 that America’s classified world had “become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work.”

• This world of secrecy requires funding. This funding comes from the Black Budget, ie: money which is completely exempt from disclosure to Congress. Both the Congress and the Commander in Chief are deliberately kept in the dark.

• We are talking about huge sums of unaccounted for money going into programs we know absolutely nothing about. Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld stated in July 2016 that “The financial systems of the Department of Defense are so snarled up that we can’t account for some $2.6 trillion in transactions…”

• [Editor’s Note] Where on earth is all of this secret government money going? Well, apparently not on Earth. Add this $2.6 trillion to the trillions of dollars of revenue earned by mega corporations, the personal wealth of the 1% elite, and the trillions of dollars generated by off-balance-sheet international FED central bank trading programs, and you have an enormous sum of unaccounted for money over the past seventy years… enough to create a secret space program and breakaway civilization, perhaps?

 

Secrecy is the backbone of America. According to some historians’ estimates, each year, more than 500 million pages of documents are classified by the United States alone. The United States has also had a history of government agencies existing in secret for years. The National Security Agency (NSA), for example, was founded in 1952, but its existence was hidden until the mid 1960s.

Even more secretive is the National Reconnaissance Office, which was founded in 1960 but remained completely secret for 30 years. On top of that, we’ve had numerous presidents, politicians, and others tell the world a secret government exists that controls both parties and all media, and dictates government policy. The latest to acknowledge this secret group was Vladimir Putin, who described how men provide instruction to the president after they’ve been elected.

The bottom line is that this world of secrecy requires funding. And since these intelligence agencies were completely secret, that funding came from the Black Budget. This money is invested into programs that are completely exempt from disclosure to Congress. When former Canadian Defence Minister Paul Hellyer said “thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on projects about which both the Congress and the Commander in Chief have been kept deliberately in the dark,” he wasn’t kidding.

Unfortunately, we don’t hear much about Black Budget programs, or about the people who investigate them. The only mainstream example comes from 2010, when Washington Post journalists Dana Priest and William Arkin spent two years investigating the Black Budget and concluded that America’s classified world has “become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work.”

This world, where trillions of unaccounted for dollars are probably ending up, is perhaps getting more attention now because, according to the Pentagon’s news service, “The Defense Department is starting the first agency-wide financial audit in its history.”

According to The Free Thought Project, beginning in 1996 all federal agencies were required by law to conduct regular financial audits, but the Pentagon has never complied. This means that, for the past 20 years, it’s never accounted for the trillions in taxpayer funds it has spent. In fact, a 2013 investigation by Scot Paltrow for Reuters uncovered that the Pentagon has been “fudging” numbers for a long time, and it’s simply considered to be standard procedure.

Linda Woodford spent the last 15 years of her career inserting phony numbers in the U.S. Department of Defense’s accounts. Every month until she retired in 2011, she says, the day came when the Navy would start dumping numbers on the Cleveland, Ohio, office of the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, the Pentagon’s main accounting agency. Using the data they received, Woodford and her fellow DFAS accountants there set about preparing monthly reports to square the Navy’s books with the U.S. Treasury’s – a balancing-the-checkbook maneuver required of all the military services and other Pentagon agencies.

And every month, they encountered the same problem. Numbers were missing. Numbers were clearly wrong. Numbers came with no explanation of how the money had been spent or which congressional appropriation it came from. “A lot of times there were issues of numbers being inaccurate,” Woodford says. “We didn’t have the detail … for a lot of it.”

Again, we are talking about huge sums of unaccounted for money going into programs we know absolutely nothing about. It’s not like there haven’t been any Congressional inquires into it, because this has been an ongoing problem for a couple of decades. Even former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld stated in July 2016 that “The financial systems of the department of defence are so snarled up that we can’t account for some $2.6 trillion in transactions that exist, if that’s believable.”
That’s a lot of money.

We have been warned about this before. President Eisenhower was the first to do so, letting the world know before he ended his presidency that there exists a massive potential for the rise of misplaced power.” His predecessor, John F. Kennedy, did the same, saying that there “is a very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment.” He also emphasized that he does not intend to permit this, to the extent that it’s in his control.

Everything We Eat and Drink Are Completely Controlled By These Ten Companies

by Alexa Erickson         December 13, 2017         (collective-evolution.com)

• A study by global anti-poverty organization, Oxfam International, has revealed that ten multi-national food conglomerates control the vast majority of what people eat on this planet. They are: PepsiCo, General Mills, Kellogg’s, Associated British Foods, Mondēlez (formerly Kraft Foods), Mars, Danone, Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Nestle.

• These corporations are so powerful that their policies can have a major impact on the diets and working conditions of people worldwide, as well as on the environment.

• You might think that a beverage manufacturer doesn’t produce food. But, for example, PepsiCo produces Quaker granola bars, while Nestlé makes frozen California Pizza Kitchen pies. Pineapple Fanta is canned at the Coca-Cola factory, just like Barq’s root beer.

• These giant corporations make it extremely difficult for startups and small businesses to compete at all. And if they do survive in the marketplace, it isn’t long before these giant companies buy them up. While you may opt for better choices liked Naked Juice and Garden of Eatin’ all-natural chips, these companies have been acquired by the mega companies such as Coca-Cola and General Mills, but they still cost more.

• How to avoid these mega-conglomerates? Don’t buy any of their products. Shop at your local farmers’ markets instead, and continue to do your research when it comes to the small-scale brands you love because you never know when they may get bought out too.

• [Editor’s Note] These multi-national corporate food monopolies whose owners are a part of the Illuminati elite not only provide the mechanism for introducing nefarious substances into the human population, but their massive profits account for a good deal of the elite’s funding of clandestine programs such as the secret space program and off-planet colonies.

 

Scour the aisles of the grocery store, and you may be astonished to find just how many types of Pringles there are out there. But while there seems to be no end to the diversity of junk food, a comprehensive infographic has been put together to show you just how few corporations provide us with the hundreds of products available at our fingertips.

Oxfam International created the infographic that exposes an inconceivable reality: Just 10 main corporations manufacture the majority of what we purchase at the market.

“What we did is we took certain issues … [and] we saw the kind of impacts they had on the ground,” Chris Jochnick of Oxfam told NPR. “We released reports about those issues and those impacts and how they’re tied to the 10 largest food and beverage companies. And then we pushed the companies to begin to address them.”

You may not normally associate makers of soda with makers of granola bars, but seeing these unlikely ties that form the “Big 10” of the food and beverage industry controlling what we put in our carts proves just how easy it is to be duped by the American food system. For instance, PepsiCo produces Quaker granola bars, while Nestlé makes frozen California Pizza Kitchen pies. Want to feel even more misinformed? Pineapple Fanta doesn’t come from a tropical island at all, but is canned at the Coca-Cola factory, just like Barq’s root beer.

“These corporations are so powerful that their policies can have a major impact on the diets and working conditions of people worldwide, as well as on the environment,” noted Alexander E.M. Hess in USA Today.

The fact that you can count on just two hands who controls our groceries is a bizarre thought, but a much-needed realization. They include: PepsiCo, General Mills, Kellogg’s, Associated British Foods, Mondēlez (formerly Kraft Foods), Mars, Danone, Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Nestle.

A Close Encounter In 1937 Fontana

by Cheryl Costa        Dec 11, 2017        (syracusenewtimes.com)

• This is the account of an experiencer who saw a UFO when he was a kid growing up in Fontana, California, just east of Los Angeles.

• In August 1937, “Harry” was walking down a rural road outside of Fontana with his two younger brothers. There were no streetlights or traffic at all. The sun had just set. Suddenly a bright light hovered over them. The boys ran into an orange grove to hide, and the light/craft followed them. “It was brighter than daylight under the orange tree that we were under,” said Harry. Just as suddenly, the light went out and the frightened boys ran home.

• For years afterward, Harry would remember waking up at night with his bedroom dimly lit and four or five “little people with big heads and dark eyes” moving around him and touching him. They were the same size as Harry.  He was never afraid and was never hurt by them. Occasionally a taller being would be standing in the doorway directing the little people.

• Says Harry today, “I’m not too sure if they were real or not anymore. But the older I get, the more I think there is more to my story then I originally thought.”

• For some reason, this corridor – from Los Angeles to San Bernardino (Fontana is located about halfway) – has always experienced a high volume of UFO sightings and ET visitations. From 2001 through 2015, the state of California had the most reports of UFO sightings in the country at 15,836.

 

Fontana, Calif., was founded in 1913 by Azariel Blanchard Miller. For the next 30 years it remained little more than a small rural village.

It was the dog days of August 1937, when the Great Depression still ruled America. Harry, his two younger brothers and his parents lived on the outskirts of Fontana in an old tractor barn. It wasn’t fancy, but it was shelter and the family was all together.

The three brothers were out walking one evening in an area where there were no streetlights and no automobile traffic. It was just after sunset and getting darker fast.

Suddenly the three boys were startled by the appearance of a very bright light that silently hovered above them.

Harry remembered, “We just stood and looked up at this brilliant glowing cylinder. It didn’t move, and we didn’t either. Puzzled, we asked each other what it was. Of course we were kids; we weren’t able to even make a guess.”

The boys quickly became afraid, and they ran into an orange grove to hide. “But the light just moved with us,” Harry said. “It was brighter than daylight under the orange tree that we were under.”

Frightened out of their wits, the brothers tried to figure out what to do next. “Then just as unexpectedly as the light had started, the light just abruptly went out.”

The boys stayed under the trees until they got up enough nerve to run for home. “This was a long time before anyone ever said they had seen an UFO or little green men.” Harry explained.

But sometimes a UFO incident isn’t just a sighting. On occasion these events are of an initiating nature that can go on for years.

“For a long time after that event, I had what I thought were dreams,” Harry said. “I would awake in a room with subdued light, with four or five of the little people with big heads and dark eyes. These little people were about as tall as I was and would be moving all around and touching me. I was never too afraid of them. I can’t ever recall being hurt in any way.”

Occasionally in Harry’s dreams, a door would open with a bright light. In the doorway there would be a tall person.

“I could never tell what he looked like. All I could see was his shadow, he would say something to the little people and they would leave. And soon after I would awake in my bed.”

Harry has struggled for years with these memories, whether or not these were real events or just fantasy dreams.

“I’m not too sure if they were real or not anymore. People have a hard time believing what you tell them you have seen. But the older I get, the more I think there is more to my story then I originally thought.”

UFOs Saved Earth From Devastating Meteor Strike, Claim Conspiracy Theorists

By Sean Martin        December 12, 2017         (express.co.uk)

• On February 15, 2013, a 20-meter meteor exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia, smashing windows and causing over 1,000 injuries. But it didn’t impact the Earth. If it had, it would have been devastating to the entire planet.

• Russian UFO enthusiasts have closely studied video at different angles of the meteor’s decent and explosion in the atmosphere, and they are certain that another smaller “UFO” type object streaked in from above the planet colliding with the meteor and causing it to explode before impacting the Earth.

• In 1908, a similar incident took place when a small asteroid exploded over Siberia’s Tunguska region, devastating 800 miles of woodland. The Russians believe an outside object crashed into that meteor as well, saving the world. Metallic fragments not native to this planet were recovered from the Tunguska site, indicating that the object that hit the meteor was destroyed. “If not for the intervention of the UFO in the Tunguska event, the Earth could have been plunged into a second stone age.”

 

The 20 metre meteor exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia, in 2013, which smashed windows and caused injuries to more than 1,000 people in the area.

Experts had not anticipated the incident, leading to fears Earth could be surprised by a more devastating asteroid strike in the future.

But, conspiracy theorists are now claiming a more intelligent species than humankind had predicted the event, and duly intercepted it to save Russia.

UFO believers studied videos of the incident and state there is an object which can be seen crashing into the rock from outer space.

Alexander Komanev, coordinator for the Russian UFO community in Yekaterinburg, said: “At first, we also believed the Chelyabinsk meteorite was just an ordinary meteorite, a cosmic body.”

However, on closer inspection, Mr Komanev says “you can see how an object catches the meteorite”, adding a much smaller object “flies into it – and the meteorite explodes and falls”.

He adds: “Such a number of videos, made from different angles, leads us to believe that something has blown up the meteorite.”

In 1908, a similar incident took place when a small asteroid exploded over Siberia’s Tunguska which ruined woodlands across 800 miles.

Russian conspiracy theorists also believe aliens saved the world in that event too.
