Three-Fingered ‘Mummified Creatures’ Found With Elongated Skulls in Peru Are Aliens, Claims Controversial Russian Scientist

by Harry Pettit              March 12, 2018            (dailymail.co.uk)

• In cave in the Nazca region of Peru, a guy named Mario discovered twenty mummies. There were 20 chalky-covered, three-fingered, big-headed, small-bodied beings in the cave. He turned them over to Mexican journalist and ufologist, Jamie Maussan, in early 2017 when Gaia TV also got involved by bringing in Russian ‘expert’ Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, a professor of Computer Science and Biophysics at Saint-Petersburg Federal University. (See previous ExoNews article)

• Although the mummies have been dismissed as a hoax by the mainstream scientific community, Dr Korotkov claims that DNA tests of tissue samples taken from the mummy “Maria” as well as a second mummy “Vavita” (possibly Maria’s nine month old child) prove the Nazca mummies are not human, but in fact are ‘aliens’. Dr Korotkov’s team says that the mummified bodies date back to about the 5th century AD and could be extraterrestrials or cyborgs.

• Dr Korotkov says, “Tomographic scans reveal their skeletons. The tissue has biological nature and their chemical composition indicates that they are humans. Their DNA features 23 pairs of chromosomes, just like we have. They appear human but they are not. Their anatomic structure is different.” Korotkov added that the beings’ rib structure is different to that of humans as the bones are keel-shaped in the upper part, and the rib cage consists of semicircular ribs.

• Korotkov team member Natalia Zaloznaya added, “We clearly see the contours of the trachea and the bronchi, of the heart and its chambers; we can even see the shape of the valves; we can also see quite clearly the contours of the diaphragm, the liver, and the spleen.” The new tests also show that the white powder that covered the beings when found is an antibacterial chemical cadmium chloride.

• Supporters of the hoax theory point to the critisizm Dr Korotkov received when he claimed to have created a camera that could photograph the human soul in 2008. In 2015, Jamie Maussan promoted photographic slides claiming to be pictures of an alien recovered from the Roswell flying saucer crash which turned out to be pictures of a mummy in a museum exhibition. And some believe that GaiaTV might be prolonging the work on the Nazca mummies to draw more subscribers to their pay internet channel.

They have largely been dismissed as a hoax by the scientific community.

And yet, it seems, conspiracy theorists are still fascinated by the ‘three fingered mummies’ with elongated heads that were found in Peru last year.

Now, one Russian ‘expert’ claims he has done DNA tests to prove they are not human.
Dr Konstantin Korotkov, a professor of Computer Science and Biophysics at Saint-Petersburg Federal University believes the mummies are ‘aliens’.

Dr Korotkov is no stranger to controversy. He was widely criticised in 2008 when he claimed to have created a camera that could photograph the human soul.

One of the mummies, known as Maria, was found by a team led by controversial Mexican journalist Jamie Maussan in early 2017.

The conspiracy group drew attention to the body’s deformed head and elongated fingers in a short documentary on the discovery.

Dr Korotkov of Saint-Petersburg University said at the time the features were not a deformity and that the find was ‘another creature, another humanoid.’

Now Dr Korotkov his team claim to have undertaken genetic tests on tissue samples taken from the mummy, as well as a second individual found nearby named Vavita, Sputnik News reports.

They said the bodies date back to about the 5th century AD and could be extraterrestrials or cyborgs.

But British alien expert Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, said the finds are most likely a hoax.

He told MailOnline: ‘I think the whole saga of finding these mummies is laughable and they are very probably fakes.

‘The new evidence does indicate the Maria is human, the only strange thing is that she has an unusual rib structure. This is probably because she is a so-called bone montage made by fakers.

‘If you think about it how would humanoid aliens with three long fingers survive? They would be incredibly clumsy and it seems doubtful they would be capable of making a cup of tea let alone a flying saucer.

‘It also doesn’t look good that this Earth shattering news was originally fed to us via a website you have to subscribe to, rather than through officially recognised scientific channels.’

Nick Pope, who used to investigate UFOs and other mysteries for the Ministry of Defence, and is a leading expert on conspiracy theories, told MailOnline he also doubted the validity of the find.

‘All these stories of mummified aliens – or mummified human/alien hybrids – are either fake news, or misunderstandings of normal human variation, perhaps where something has been lost in translation,’ he said.

‘In this case, I suspect a hoax, and the ‘mummy’ looks more like a plaster model than anything else.

‘If this was real, we’d be seeing peer-reviewed articles in magazines such as Science or Nature.’

Nikola Tesla Wasn’t the Only One: U.S. Places ‘Secrecy Orders’ On Thousands of Inventions

by Arjun Walia              March 11, 2018               (collective-evolution.com)

• The National Security Act was created in 1949. As a result, a number of intelligence groups and executive bodies followed. None of these groups had any active congressional oversight. From this, the Invention Secrecy Act was created in 1951 which provided that new inventions may be subject to secrecy orders and restrict their publication if government agencies believe that their disclosure would be harmful to national security. “National security” has become a justification for the classification of a large amount of information on a variety of topics in which the public is deliberately kept in the dark. As a result, the U.S. Government has been classifying upwards of over 500 million pages of documents per year.

• The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office uses a secret system called the Sensitive Application Warning System (SAWS) to delay the approval of applications deemed a possible threat to national security.

• A 50-page document obtained by a law firm that represents major tech companies describes the SAWS system: When an application is submitted for patent approval, it requires a couple of examiners to go through the process which usually takes 1 to 2 years. Applications that are filed under SAWS, however, must be approved by several people and can be delayed for a number of years. There were over 5000 inventions languishing under secrecy orders in 2014. There is no official channel to notify an applicant once their patent is placed in the SAWS system. The Patent Office denies requests to even divulge what applications are on the SAWS list.

• How secret is this system? To find any records we have to go back 45 years. In 1971, patents for solar photovoltaic generators were subject to review and restriction if the photovoltaics were more than 20% efficient. Energy conversion systems were likewise subject to review and restriction if they offered conversion efficiencies in “excess of 70-80%. Dr. Gerald F. Ross filed a patent application for a new invention he had devised to defeat the jamming of electromagnetic transmissions at specified frequencies. It took almost 37 years before his patent was granted.

• What happens to these “restricted” patent applications? Over many decades now, an elite group has had access to information such as this that the public has not. Utilizing these restricted patents, this elite group is no doubt living in a world far different from ours. It is a world within a world, a separate “breakaway civilization”. President Eisenhower warned us in 1960, “The potential disaster of the rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes.” This appears to be exactly what has happened.

 

Government secrecy is running rampant in an age where more and more people are demanding transparency. Did you know that the U.S. Government classifies over 500 million pages of documents each year? Justification for the mass classification of information is (apparently) done for the sake of “national security,” but as we know:
“The dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts, far outweigh the dangers that are cited to justify them. There is a very grave danger that an announced need for an increased level of security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of censorship and concealment. That I do not tend to permit, so long as it’s in my control.” – JFK
If a scholar wanted to research political, historical, scientific, or any other type of archival work, it would prove difficult and limiting seeing that most of their government’s activities are kept a secret. It is truly impossible to access the factual history of their country. The declassification of classified documents (a small portion) does not occur until decades after that information has been concealed, one great example of that is the UFO phenomenon, once believed to be a “conspiracy theory” by the masses before the substantial release of government documents showing otherwise. Evidence is now pointing to the fact that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office is no different.

The office is supposed to legally protect the inventions of entrepreneurs and companies, some of whom have developed ground breaking technology. Unfortunately, that’s not the case as new documents obtained via the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) reveal how the Patent Office has been using a secret system to withhold the approval of some applications.

This 50-page document was obtained by Kilpatrick Towsend & Stockton, LLP, who commonly represent major tech companies that include Apple, Google and Twitter (to name a few).

The program delaying patent applications is called the Sensitive Application Warning System (SAWS). Usually, when an application is submitted for a patent approval it requires a couple of examiners who work with the Patent office to go through their process of approval. This process usually takes approximately 1 to 2 years, but applications that are filed in SAWS must be approved from several people, and can be delayed for a number of years.

“There is no official channel to notify an applicant once their patent is placed in the system, and the Patent Office has denied requests to divulge what applications are on the SAWS list.”

The documents also indicate areas of technology that might have a patent application placed in the SAWS program – these include smartphones, internet-enabling systems and more. This information is set to be published in an online journal called “Law360” to inform the public. Tech Columnist Alyssa Bereznak at Yahoo News states that most companies are fully aware of this.

I first came across this recent information in her article, but I felt compelled to add more information.

As you will see below, there is more information that has surfaced prior to these documents that suggest this type of “invention secrecy” goes far beyond these technologies.

One great example (out of many) of delayed patent applications comes from Dr. Gerald F. Ross. He filed a patent application for a new invention he had devised to defeat the jamming of electromagnetic transmissions at specified frequencies. It was not until June 17, 2014 (almost 37 years later) that this patent was granted.

Invention Secrecy Is Still Going Strong

As great as it is to see new information pertaining to invention secrecy come to light, it’s also important to note (as reported by the Federation of American Scientists; see annotated bibliography) that there were over 5000 inventions that were under secrecy orders at the end of Fiscal Year 2014, which marked the highest number of secrecy orders in effect since 1994.

This is all thanks to an act many people are unaware of. It’s called the “Invention Secrecy Act” and it was written up in 1951. Under this act, patent applications on new inventions can be subject to secrecy orders. These orders can restrict their publication if government agencies believe that their disclosure would be harmful to national security.

As mentioned earlier, “national security” has become an excuse and justification for the classification of a large amount of information on a variety of topics that the public is deliberately kept in the dark about. Apparently, many of these projects and inventions go far above and beyond presidential knowledge.

Advanced (Possibly Extraterrestrial) German Technology From Before WW2

by Arjun Walia            March 11, 2018           (collective-evolution.com)

• In the mid-1920s, Townsend Brown discovered that gravitational mass and electric charge are coupled. He found that when a capacitor is charged to a high voltage, it moves toward its positive pole. This became known as the “Biefeld-Brown” effect.

• During World War Two, multiple strange sightings occurred of disc-shaped objects travelling at incomprehensible speeds. A declassified CIA document mentions a famous German engineer named Georg Klein, who confirms that the Germans were developing ‘flying saucers’ as early as 1941. Klein relates that by 1944, the Germans had already built three “saucers” for testing. These saucers could reach speeds of 4,000 kilometers per hour. The Germans did have a problem obtaining the construction materials for these saucers, but even this had been solved by the end of 1945. One type of German saucer actually had the shape of a disc 42 meters in diameter with an interior cabin. Another model was in the shape of a ring with raised sides and a spherically shaped pilot’s cabin on the outside, in the center of the ring. Both models could take off vertically and precisely land.

• At the war’s end, German engineers were ordered to destroy these saucers, including all of the plans for them. “The engineers at the Mite factories in Breslau, however, were not warned in sufficient time of the Soviet approach, and the Soviets, therefore, succeeded in seizing their material. Plans, as well as specialized personnel, were immediately sent directly to the Soviet Union under heavy guard,” said Klein.
• Italian researcher Renato Vesco claims that during WWII the Germans had developed antigravity. These concepts were later developed by the Americans and Soviets and led directly to flying saucers.

• University of New Hampshire professor, Theodore C. Loder, revealed that “around 1953, Townsend Brown conducted a demonstration for military top brass. He flew a pair of 3-foot diameter discs around a 50-foot course tethered to a central pole. Energized with 150,000 volts and emitting ions from their leading edge, they attained speeds of several hundred miles per hour. Another of Browns experiments with flying saucer prototypes had one reaching an altitude of 12,400 meters within 3 minutes, at a speed of 2,200 kilometers per hour. Brown submitted a proposal to the Pentagon for the development of a Mach 3 disc shaped electrogravitic fighter craft.”

• In 2002, aviation writer Nick Cook came to the conclusion that the Nazis had experimented “with a form of science the rest of the world had never remotely considered”, and which continues to be suppressed today.

• Secret exotic technologies have been wrapped up in the Black Budget and Special Access Programs (SAPs) for years. They’re exempt from standard reporting requirements to Congress and many of these SAPS remain unacknowledged by anybody within the government.

• “It is ironic that the U.S. should be fighting monstrously expensive wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy, when trillions, and I mean 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.” – Former Canadian Defense Minister Paul Hellyer

 

“A German newspaper recently published an interview with George Klein, famous German engineer and aircraft expert, describing the experimental construction of ‘flying saucers’ carried out by him from 1941 to 1945.”

Exotic technology has been around for a long time, and so have the agencies within the Department of Defense that use it. Just imagine what type of technology the NSA — an intelligence agency whose existence was denied until the mid-1960s — was using in the 1950s. Then there’s the National Reconnaissance Office, which was founded in 1960 but remained completely secret for 30 years. Secret technologies have been wrapped up in the Black Budget and Special Access Programs (SAPs) for years, and many of these SAPS remain unacknowledged by anybody within the government. They’re exempt from standard reporting requirements to Congress.

“It is ironic that the U.S. would begin a devastating war, allegedly in search of weapons of mass destruction, when the most worrisome developments in this field are occurring in your own backyard. It is ironic that the U.S. should be fighting monstrously expensive wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy, when trillions, and I mean 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.”
– Former Canadian Defense Minister Paul Hellyer

When it comes to exotic aerial technology, there is no shortage of information. For examine, in the mid-1920s, Townsend Brown discovered that gravitational mass and electric charge are coupled. He found that when a capacitor is charged to a high voltage, it moves toward its positive pole. This became known as the “Biefeld-Brown” effect, which, like many new concepts today that challenge longheld belief systems (that then become scientific dogma), was opposed by conventional-minded physicists of his time.

As Theodore C. Loder, a Professor Emeritus of Earth Sciences at the University of New Hampshire, states:
“The Pearl Harbor Demonstration. Around 1953, Brown conducted a demonstration for military top brass. He flew a pair of 3-foot diameter discs around a 50-foot course tethered to a central pole. Energized with 150,000 volts and emitting ions from their leading edge, they attained speeds of several hundred miles per hour. The subject was thereafter classified. Project Winterhaven. Brown submitted a proposal to the Pentagon for the development of a Mach 3 disc shaped electrogravitic fighter craft. Drawings of its basic design are shown in one of his patents. They are essentially large-scale versions of his tethered test discs.”

German Flying Saucers

During World War Two, multiple strange sightings occurred, of disc-shaped objects travelling at incomprehensible speeds. When the Associated Press and New York Times covered the topic in 1945, they speculated the objects might be a new form of German weaponry.

There is no shortage of strange documents in the CIA’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) electronic reading room. Many reveal the agency’s efforts to keep tabs on the technological developments of other countries, especially during and after World War II.

One document brings up a famous German engineer named Georg Klein, who, as the document states, expressed that “though many people believe the ‘flying saucers’ to be a postwar development, they were actually in the planning stage in German aircraft factories as early as 1941.”

The document then goes on to mention an experiment described by Klein:
“The “flying saucer” reached an altitude of 12,400 meters within 3 minutes and a speed of 2,200 kilometers per hour. Klein emphasized that in accordance with German plans, the speed of these “saucers” would reach 4,000 kilometers per hour. One difficulty, according to Klein, was the problem of obtaining the materials to be used for the construction of the “saucers,” but even this had been solved by German engineers toward the end of 1945, and construction on the objects was scheduled to begin, Klein added.

Three Different Models

According to Klein, by 1944 the Germans had already built three saucers for testing. Were these the “foo” fighters all of these American pilots were reporting? The document describes the three disks:
One type actually had the shape of a disc, with an interior cabin, and was built at the (unidentified) factories, which had also built the V2 rockets. This model was 42 meters in diameter. The other model had the shape of a ring, with raised sides and a spherically shaped pilot’s cabin placed on the outside, in the center of the ring . . . [and] both models had the ability to take off vertically and to land in an extremely restricted area, like helicopters.

The engineers were ordered to destroy these saucers, including all of the plans for them. “The engineers at the Mite factories in Breslau, however, were not warned in sufficient time of the Soviet approach, and the Soviets, therefore, succeeded in seizing their material. Plans, as well as specialized personnel, were immediately sent directly to the Soviet Union under heavy guard.”

German Saucer Technology Has Been in the Lore for a Long Time

Aviation writer Nick Cook is one of many to have investigated this topic, and in 2002 he came to the conclusion that the Nazis had experimented “with a form of science the rest of the world had never remotely considered” and which continues to be suppressed today.

It makes you wonder what the United States received given that, through Operation Paperclip, a number of top German scientists were transported to the United States.

NBC News – Penn State astronomer asks – Should we be looking for space aliens a bit closer to home? 

Converging lines of evidence show the media, factions within the US Pentagon and mainstream science are taking UFOs seriously – while the White House remains silent.

A ZlandCommunications Editorial
 
 

In a report by NBC News, a Penn State astrophysicist contends that if spacefaring extraterrestrials ever did enter our solar system, perhaps these species might have produced artefacts or other technosignatures that have survived to the present day on any planet in our solar system.

As this dialogue expands, US and Canadian mainstream media have also taken the initiative to create headlines about the Pentagon’s high level of interest in UFOs.

Science, the media and government have traditionally shown disinterest, silence and even hostility towards the UFO/ET issue. This now appears to have changed dramatically.

These three terrestrial edifices of conventional wisdom, whether they realize it or not, have inadvertently and independently produced three converging lines of evidence that point in one direction: The imminent possibility of an extraterrestrial footprint in our star system. After decades of silence and resistance these three entities seem to be talking the same language.

THE CONVERGING LINES OF EVIDENCE

One line of inquiry points to an admission by the Pentagon that it authorized the release of now, three gun-camera videos, each obtained by Navy F/A-18 jets of multiple intercepts of UFOs. Each video has been authorized for release by Pentagon officials.

The second line of inquiry reveals the Pentagon admitted the existence of a $22 million program to investigate UFOs from 2007 to 2012. The retired head of that program Luis Elizondo is on record – stating he feels the program still operates.

A third line of inquiry is an academic statement by a tenured astronomer at Penn State University about the possible existence of intelligent off-world civilizations.

Upon analysis of these converging lines of evidence it becomes clear these evidentiary facts have much more in common than one might suspect.

THE MEDIA and GOVERNMENT
Thus far in Canada and the United States alone – six prominent mainstream media outlets in North America have assigned distinguished journalists and high-powered investigative news programs to cover the UFO/ET issue.

Each of these six prominent 21st century news organizations have decided to cover UFO/ET news in a fair and open manner – devoid of the ridicule and giggle factors that characterized their predecessors’ treatment of this matter:

  • CTV NEWS – Canada’s largest independent news outlet. CTV coverage,
  • America’s number one rated 60 Minutes – a CBS flagship of news and analysis interviewed billionaire entrepreneur Robert Bigelow on the UFO/ET matter,
  • MSNBC discussed the Pentagon’s UFO program,
  • ABC News coverage also engaged the UFO/ET matter.

This unexpected and revolutionary form of discourse among the mainstream media is gathering momentum – making more and more doubters feel that if conventional mainstream media is chatting up the ET factor in this way, perhaps it is time to take these matters more seriously.

Now science – the ever constant and established arbiter of conventional wisdom – is stepping forward to suggest – we may not be alone and may never have been. 
 
Early astronomers Ptolemy, Galileo and Copernicus shattered the mold of the long-held belief that the Earth was the centre of the solar system – might Dr. Wright, his colleagues and perhaps all of science be on the verge of a new paradigm of belief?
 

THE SCIENCE

In an abstract, a Penn State academic states: “The origins and possible locations for technosignatures of such a prior indigenous technological species, which might have arisen on ancient Earth or another body, such as a pre-greenhouse Venus or a wet Mars.”

Penn State astrophysicist Dr. Jason Wright told John Wenz of NBC News MACH: “We need experts in a variety of fields across astrobiology, geology, and anthropology to look at all the data to make concrete statements about whether there’s a chance that advanced space aliens once lived or visited here.”

This unprecedented statement by a leading astrophysicist indicating that an ET presence in our solar system is entirely plausible should, on its own merits, be explored. The contention by Wright is significant for two ardently existential reasons.

First – the UFO/ET issue has long-suffered the criticism that mainstream science and more specifically astronomers have always been reluctant to render any public and substantive statements on an ET presence. Traditional science has long held that it is not even remotely interested in discussing the proposition that intelligent off-world civilizations may have made their presence felt in our star system. Our Earth-bound modes of reasoning have never included this hypothesis.

Although slowly, these reservations seem to be evaporating. This new kind of proclamation out of Penn State is not only extremely unusual and a departure from the status quo – it certainly implies mainstream science is now preparing itself for a much more comprehensive conversation about the much maligned UFO/ET issue.

Why so? Quite simple actually… Any discussion about the existence of extraterrestrials – by default – leads journalists and scientists into the voluminous evidentiary documentation that the UFO phenomenon has been discussed, analyzed and sequestered at the highest levels of governance on the planet for decades. This mode of investigation has never been fully explored by media entities normally bent on celebrity adulation, the stock market or exposing the simplistic notion of government impropriety, waste or a president who appears unable to grasp the meaning and significance of the American Constitution. 

The human family is faced with much larger and more intuitive matters of existentialism – matters that recognize the individual as capable of understanding the significance of his or her own rights – not those donative rights given to them by the state which can be so arbitrarily taken away at any time – but those rights of natural law – the human right to freedom and control over his or her own destiny and development. This is where the UFO/ET issue resides in the human consciousness. It loiters but still operates within a dichotomous cosmos of spiritual simplicity but one of immensely incomprehensible complexity.

Given this unique and often unarticulated context – clear lines of converging evidence dramatically demonstrate that multiple levels of orchestrated government secrecy and lies are now in question. It is now obvious government has – in fact – remained audibly silent on and lied to its citizens about the UFO/ET matter for over 70 years. Does this mendacity conjure suggestions of a cover-up or dare we say – a conspiracy?

THE ULTIMATE TAKE AWAY
This tincture of science and news reporting may represent an emulsion and not an oil and water dichotomy. Considering the connectivity of ideas – add to this mix the governmental and geo-political implications of an ET presence and one is looking at a ready-made literary cocktail – capable of re-writing history. 

These seemingly mutually exclusive lines of inquiry now appear to have some common ground – a galactic intersection with Earthly and alien pedestrians crossing every which way to get to the other side.

If a renowned Penn State astrophysicist like Dr. Jason Wright is making these kinds of statements – might we not want to pay a little closer attention. Much in the same way we would if he had proclaimed, “We have found a cure for cancer…” Both are stunning propositions – maybe we can believe both if ET technologies are as advanced as the experts say they may appear to be. 

If the UFOs being seen by pilots are indeed of non-Earth origin as many believe, then we can only assume that these off-world civilizations possess the capacity to conquer the vast interstellar distances of space using unimaginable energy sources, technologies and exotic propulsion systems that make possible light speed travel – might they also have eliminated disease as well as their own extinction behaviours? Advancing these kinds of discussions can only enlighten and allow for possibilities – rejecting them is done at our peril.

The second reason why this matter is significant is that NBC and CBS News are credited with being two of, if not the highest rated US mainstream news media outlets. This departure from traditional mainstream news ridicule of the ET issue creates what appears to be a contemporaneous and reformative rise in the level of interest in the possible existence of off-world intelligences that may have made their presence felt in our star system. Might then other mainstream news outlets, government officials and other segments of society want to pay closer attention?

These growing and concurrent shifts in consciousness and ideology from both the academic/scientific community and American mainstream journalism illustrates a revised attitude toward a conversation about ET life and the truth that has been sequestered behind walls of secrecy for so very long. 

Dr. Wright’s statement and one by Harvard professor Dr. Avi Loeb has upset the traditional apple-cart among astronomers who hold tight to the view that there is no evidence of an ET presence anywhere in the known cosmos – a world-view that espouses there is no logical sense in pursuing this matter. 

Loeb stated in the same NBC article, “There could have been a visit by another alien civilization…” from another solar system. The aliens might have visited us in person, he said, or via some form of space probe. [Should We Be Looking for Space Aliens a Bit Closer to Home? – NBC MACH Aug.29.2017]

MORE QUESTIONS ARISE
Now that Dr. Wright and some of his colleagues are asking these kinds of questions – is it not now time to talk more seriously about extraterrestrials, UFOs and a cosmos that may be teeming with life? 

Does the next stage in evolution of this matter foresee the media and science sustain their lines of inquiry to pressure and openly challenge the White House and other indolent levels of governance to come clean? Why is this level of discourse so important?

First, this quality of mainstream coverage would have been unheard of even 5 years ago. Second, this level of coverage by the media reaches far beyond the ‘UFO choir-of-the-converted’ and into the living rooms, kitchens, libraries, government offices, news rooms and professional institutions where those who inhabit these places go about their business – blissfully unaware of and oblivious to the facts rooted in this matter. It is in these places where the cosmically impaired reside. It is here where what the late Dr. John Mack called – the ‘battle over world views’ – will be won.

Given that Ptolemy, Galileo and Copernicus began putting major cracks in the outmoded scientific and religious slate of beliefs of the day by imprinting a new paradigm onto reality, it turns out Dr. Wright and his colleagues in addition to the media and the Pentagon might all be on the verge of cracking a few more tablets themselves.
 
At the vanishing point of these converging lines of evidence we are left with two conclusions:
  • Science – government and media are now – for the first time in history – on the same page. It’s taken 70 years – but the wait has been worth it, and, 
  • We are not alone and never have been.
It’s finally time to talk seriously about UFOs and Extraterrestrial life.

Theoretical Physicist Believes Robots Pose Greater Threat Than Aliens

by Vamien McKalin           February 28, 2018           (sanvada.com)

• Considering our abhorrent conduct in wiping out indigenous civilizations with the discovery of ‘new continents’ five hundred years ago, many modern humans are fearful that a technologically superior extraterrestrial race might do the same thing to us.

• In a recent Reddit “Ask me Anything”, theoretical physicist Michio Kaku expressed his belief that humans will make contact with intelligent ETs within this century. But he doesn’t believe that we need to fear for our lives. These highly advanced ETs will require nothing from humans, and will consider us as insignificant as forest animals, so long as we don’t get in their way.

• It is the robots – the artificial intelligence that we are creating at break-neck speed – that we need to worry about. Robots could become so self-reliant that they find that humankind can be eliminated altogether. “I think we should put a chip in their brain to shut them off if they have murderous thoughts” says Kaku. Either that, or actually merge robots with human as an android to create a hybrid in order to survive.

• [Editor’s note]  Time will tell if Kaku is just kookoo.

 

There are many of us humans who strongly believe in aliens, and that these mythical beings, if real, stands to become a significant threat to Earth and could possibly wipe out the entire human race.
It’s pretty difficult to disagree with these folks since if we look back at our own history and how humans have gone to war after finding new land, it wouldn’t be surprising if an alien species choose to destroy or enslave us.

Aliens Are Too Smart for War

                       Michio Kaku

In a recent Reddit AMA (Ask me Anything), Michio Kaku, a theoretical physicist, and futurist, believes humans will eventually make contact with intelligence alien lifeform within this century. He added that these beings will likely be peaceful, but he’s unable to say the same for robots.

Kaku says advanced alien society would view us puny humans as insignificant. Apparently, these creatures or beings would be more interested in gaining more knowledge, something humans are not capable of giving. These lifeforms would have thousands of years to resolve all their problems, therefore, war is no longer on the agenda.

Still, should humans get in the way of their thirst for knowledge, a peaceful encounter with extraterrestrials might turn deadly.

“They still might be dangerous if they simply don’t care about us and we get in the way. In War of the Worlds, the aliens did not hate us. We were simply in the way.”

“But for the most part, I think they will be peaceful, but view us like we view forest animals,” he concluded.

Ancient Civilization Used Sound Energy to Levitate and Contact Aliens

by Patrick Knox         February 21, 2018             (thesun.co.uk)

• Archaeological findings suggest previous civilisations used circular structures as energy-generating devices to create man-made portals in time. Two years of research suggests that human beings from thousands of years ago produced natural sound harmonic frequencies produced from the surface of the Earth at frequencies of more than 380 gigahertz – much greater than any levels used today.

• In the UFOmania YouTube channel video clip (below), the narrator explains that the Sumerian civilization (Iraq) may have inhabited parts of southern Africa thousands of years ago. The technology the Sumers used in 3,000BC is similar to the way we use laser technology today.

• The discovery has left many confused as to what this previous society could possibly have done with the high-frequency sound energy they created. One YouTube comment reads: “Sound was used as energy to levitate objects in order to create the monuments that opened vortices which allowed spacecraft to come and go.” Another added: “…many ancient rock carvings showed a spiral, which could be some kind of sound wave. This is something they can only draw and couldn’t put into words.”

• [Editor’s Note] As to the notion of a “bizarre new claim”, Michael Tellinger has been talking about these circular structures in southern Africa, such as Adam’s Calendar, for years. Also see a recent article in the ExoNews about recent developments in levitation technology.

 

Archaeological findings suggest previous civilizations used circular structures as energy-generating devices to create man-made portals in time, according to boffins online.

The research – which extended over a two-year period – suggested that human beings from thousands of years ago produced natural sound harmonic frequencies produced from the surface of the Earth.

In the video clip, the narrator explains that the Sumerian civilisation may have inhabited parts of southern Africa thousands of years ago. The Sumers are one of the earliest civilisations known to walk the Earth. They are said to date back to 3,000BC. The technology they apparently used is said to be similar to the way we use laser technology today.

Some of the frequencies recorded are believed to reach more than 380 gigahertz – much greater than any levels used today.

The discovery has left many confused as to what this previous society could possibly have done with the energy they created and whether they could have possibly known more about our planet than we do today.

US Intelligence Agencies Warn War in Space is Coming

by Brett Tingley           February 20, 2018            (mysteriousuniverse.org)

• If a war ever broke out involving the United States, Russia and China, the first thing everyone would do is to knock out the other side’s communications and military satellites, thus making ‘space… the pivotal battlefield in the next global conflict’.

• According to a report by the Director of National Intelligence and presented to congressional intelligence and armed forces committees, Russia and China are only a few years away from having operational anti-satellite technology designed to reduce the advantages of the American military. ‘Military reforms in both [Russia and China] in the past few years indicate an increased focus on establishing operational forces designed to integrate attacks against space systems and services with military operations’, says the report.

• While both the Chinese and Russian governments publicly claim that space should be a peaceful domain, they’ve both been training their military personnel in the operation of anti-satellite (ASAT) weapons and other military types of “experimental” and “killer” satellites”. The United States, of course, has also been doing some shadowy aerospace stuff and secret testing in orbit.

• Does strange stuff falling from the skies and mysterious booms mean that there is already a space war going on over our heads? Does the advancement of space-age technology make a space war inevitable? The report states that “the risk of… interstate conflict… among great powers is higher than at any time since the end of the Cold War.” Space Wars, here we come.

 

Space is beginning to become more accessible to humankind. Naturally, the military wants to start fighting wars up there. Really, though, if you think about the timelines of the development of automobiles, aircraft, and atomic bombs relative to their use in war, it’s a wonder that there hasn’t been a war in space yet. I guess the near-unbelievable price tags of any space-borne technology still hold back the superpowers from going CRASH BANG BOOM with all their shiny new space toys – for now, at least.

Thanks to James Bond villain-in-the-making Elon Musk and the Chinese rocket scientists who are no doubt furiously plagiarizing his technology (yeah, they really do that), those price tags are sure to come down in the near future. What does that mean for us? Get ready for war in space, folks. It’s gonna be weird – and deadly.

For now, most of the space weaponry involves disarming, destroying, or hijacking enemy satellites. Giant death lasers are on the way though, don’t worry. Satellites are what give battlefield advantage to modern militaries, providing GPS and communications networks, surveillance capabilities, and probably even some seriously crazy space-based firepower we don’t even know about yet. Those satellites are relied upon by military forces during conflicts, making them prime targets for adversaries. According to a new report published by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, Russia and China are only a few years away from having operational anti-satellite technology designed to reduce the advantages of the American military. The report also states that “the risk of interstate conflict, including among great powers, is higher than at any time since the end of the Cold War.” Space Wars, here we come.

This new report was published by the intelligence community and presented to congressional intelligence and armed forces committees. In the view of intelligence analysts, the United States’ closest rivals for world hegemony are fast at work preparing for space to be the pivotal battlefield in the next global conflict: If a future conflict were to occur involving Russia or China, either country would justify attacks against US and allied satellites as necessary to offset any perceived US military advantage derived from military, civil, or commercial space systems. Military reforms in both countries in the past few years indicate an increased focus on establishing operational forces designed to integrate attacks against space systems and services with military operations in other domains.

Hate Speech Initiative a Trojan Horse for AI Takeover of Humanity

A February 8 video by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) promotes a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithm it calls the “Online Hate Index” which is aimed at identifying hate speech. The ADL believes that the AI algorithm can be used by social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter to identify and quickly remove hate speech.

In the video, Brittan Heller, the Director of the ADL Center for Technology & Society says the goal of the index is to:

Help tech platforms better understand the growing amount of hate on social media, and to use that information to address the problem. By combining Artificial Intelligence and machine learning and social science, the Online Hate Index will ultimately uncover and identify trends and patterns in hate speech across different platforms.

In its “Phase I Innovation Brief” published January 2018 on its website, the ADL further explains how “machine learning”, a form of Artificial Intelligence based on algorithms, can be used to identify and remove hate speech from social media platforms:

The Online Hate Index (OHI), a joint initiative of ADL’s Center for Technology and Society and UC Berkeley’s D-Lab, is designed to transform human understanding of hate speech via machine learning into a scalable tool that can be deployed on internet content to discover the scope and spread of online hate speech. Through a constantly-evolving process of machine learning, based on a protocol developed by a team of human coders as to what does and does not constitute hate speech, this tool will uncover and identify trends and patterns in hate speech across different online platforms, allowing us to push for the changes necessary to ensure that online communities are safe and inclusive spaces.

The ADL’s Online Hate Index is described as “a sentiment-based analysis that runs off of machine learning.” The ADL Brief goes on to say:

All the decisions that went into each step of creating the OHI were done with the aim of building a machine learning-enabled model that can be used to identify and help us understand hate speech online.

What the ADL and other promoters of AI based algorithms fail to grasp is the potential of AI to evolve through its programmed capacity for “machine learning” into the kind of fearsome interconnected sentient intelligence featured in movies such as the Terminator and Battlestar Galactica.

It is well known that scientists/inventors such as Stephen Hawkins and Elon Musk have been loudly warning about the long term threat posed by AI. They and others believe that AI poses an existential threat to humanity, and needs to be closely controlled and monitored. In a 2014 speech Musk said:

I think we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. If I had to guess at what our biggest existential threat is, it’s probably that. So we need to be very careful with artificial intelligence…. ‘I’m increasingly inclined to think that there should be some regulatory oversight, maybe at the national and international level, just to make sure that we don’t do something very foolish… With artificial intelligence we’re summoning the demon. You know those stories where there’s the guy with the pentagram, and the holy water, and … he’s sure he can control the demon? Doesn’t work out.

Musk’s view was echoed by Stephen Hawking who warned against the danger of AI in an interview with the BBC in December 2014:

The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race…. It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate.… Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete, and would be superseded.

Similarly, Corey Goode, an alleged insider revealing the existence of multiple secret space programs, claims that AI is already a threat in deep space operations. When he first emerged in early 2015, Goode focused a great deal of attention on the AI threat, and continues to warn about it today.

He says that these programs, along with extraterrestrial civilizations, take strict security precautions to identify and remove any kind of AI signature:

There are a few ET “AI” Groups (ALL Malevolent to Humanity, from our perspective) that the SSP(s) (There are several Secret Space Programs) have been dealing with for decades.

If an “Asset” is “Scanned” and has a “Bio Neuro AI Signature”, “AI Nano Tech” or “Overlapping AI related EMG type Brian Wave Signature” (Or any other sign of AI exposure) those persons are immediately placed in isolation and are not allowed anywhere near the current era SSP(s) Technology (Which is “Mostly” Bio-Neurological and Consciousness Interactive) until they have been “Cleared” of all AI influences.

Now, let’s analyze all this in terms of what the ADL is proposing for social media platforms to use AI based algorithms to identify hate speech.

At first look, there is great appeal in the idea of monitoring speech and regulating people promoting fear, hate or violence against others whether on social, religious or economic grounds. After all, we all want to live in a peaceful and tolerant world, which includes cyberspace, so why not exclude intolerant and hateful individuals and groups from our social media platforms?

The big problem here of course is that there is a real danger that social media can be surreptitiously used to exclude dissenting political viewpoints under the guise of regulating hate speech. We see this already occurring with Youtube using an army of 10,000 volunteers from groups such as the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Many popular YouTube channels are being increasingly targeted by strikes and removals for behavior characterized as bullying or hate speech. Yet, this YouTube crackdown appears to be a cleverly disguised politically driven campaign to remove alternative voices questioning the official media narrative on a great number of social issues, rather than really cracking down on hate speech. I’ve written about the problem here.

What ADL is proposing, however, goes well beyond what YouTube is currently doing. The ADL is openly promoting a censorship system where it won’t be humans doing the actual monitoring and removal of hate speech but an AI algorithm. What might be the result of this if allowed to occur given the warnings of AI posed by Hawking, Musk and Goode?

It doesn’t take an Einstein to realize that if social media platforms did allow AI algorithms to monitor and censor content, that warnings about a future AI threat would themselves eventually be deemed to be a form of hate speech. After all, if corporations can be recognized to have the same rights as individuals according to the infamous Citizens United ruling by the Supreme Court in 2010, won’t AI sentience eventually also be recognized to have similar human rights in the U.S.?

We could very easily end up in a dystopian future where different forms of AI are used to monitor and regulate human behavior in egregious ways, and any humans protesting or warning what the AI system is doing would be censored for hate speech.

Given the existential threat posed by AI, if we accept what Hawking, Musk and Goode are telling us, let alone the inappropriateness of censoring alternative news perspectives in the first place, then free speech needs to be protected on social media at all costs.

In the U.S. this should not present too great challenge given the First Amendment Constitutional right to free speech, and legal remedies available in the Federal court system. Those individuals who threatened legal remedies to YouTube cracking down on their channels appear to have been the most successful in restoring their channels. YouTube apologized to such users for the overzealous behavior of its new army of 10,000 moderators. 

However, the U.S. is an island in a vast ocean where other countries do actively punish individuals and groups for hate speech. This is where the future appears ominous given the temptation for national regulators to eventually punish social media platforms that don’t regulate hate speech. This would force Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and other platforms to adopt the AI based algorithms recommended by the ADL or other organizations for widespread usage.

This is likely to lead to a situation where major nations such as China, or supranational entities such as the European Union, might embrace AI algorithms to monitor and regular hate speech. China is already closely monitoring and removing dissident political thought from media platforms through firewalls, and may well be contemplating incorporating AI algorithms to do so more effectively.

While national regulators across the world may be tempted for different reasons to adopt the ADL’s proposal for AI algorithms to identify and remove hate speech, we need to firmly keep in mind that this would create a Trojan horse for eventual AI control of humanity.

Despite the genuine problems posed by hate speech, national regulators need to ensure that social media platforms are never regulated by AI algorithms given the potential for global security to be undermined, and humanity being genuinely imperiled by an AI takeover.

Are Ancient Peruvians With Long Skulls Aliens? No, They Were Self-Made, Says Study

by Nirmal Narayanan           February 18, 2018             (ibtimes.sg)

• Mainstream researchers have discovered elongated skulls in humans from at least a thousand years ago in various parts of North America, Africa, and Europe. They have concluded that the practice of skull elongation was very common in ancient times.

• In particular, researchers analyzed the skulls of the Collagua people who roamed in the Colca Valley in south-eastern Peru around 1100 to 1450 CE. Researchers believe that these people would bind up their baby’s head to give them a pear-shaped skull. These long-headed Collagua women also had better diets and less signs of violence than their round headed peers, indicating that they were considered privileged in their community, perhaps even royalty.

• [Editor’s Note] The unaddressed question is why would an elongated head represent a royal class? Were they trying to emulate a previous Earth species whom they revered as gods? Was it the long-headed Anunnaki and their long-headed human-hybrid descendants that civilizations all over the world were imitating?

 

Several conspiracy theories have surfaced online since the discovery of elongated skulls in the Peruvian theory. Many conspiracy theorists believed that aliens have once lived in Peru, while others claimed that these skulls are that of human-alien hybrids.

But now, a new study published in the journal Current Anthropology has revealed that these elongated skulls have nothing do with aliens or extraterrestrials, instead, the practice of skull elongation was very common in those ancient ages. Researchers also made it clear that similar elongated skulls were discovered from various parts of North America, Africa, and Europe.

During the study, researchers analyzed the skulls of the Collagua people who roamed in the Colca Valley in south-eastern Peru around 1100 to 1450 CE. The researchers believed that people used to bind up their baby’s head to give them a pear-shaped skull. After measuring carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis of the bones, researchers found that Collagua women with elongated skulls used to eat a more varied diet which indicates that they were more privileged than others in the community.

Interestingly, the remains of these women with elongated skulls had less physical violence inflicted on them. According to the study’s author, this is a sign that Peruvians who had elongated skulls could be from the royal family.

The Physics of UFOs: “If This Was a Court of Law, We Are Beyond a Reasonable Doubt.”

by Arjun Walia            February 13, 2018             (collective-evolution.com)

• The above is a quote by Luis Elizondo in a recent interview by George Knapp and the I-Team Las Vegas (pictured above). Elizondo was the director of the Pentagon’s $22M UFO research program until he retired to join Tom Delonge’s ‘To The Stars Academy’ to make public an F-18 cockpit video of a tic-tac shaped UFO and an accompanying New York Times article last December. The Pentagon program was authorized by Senator Harry Reid in conjunction with Bigelow Aerospace. Founder Robert Bigelow said in a ’60 Minutes’ (CBS) interview that the Earth is currently being visited by extraterrestrials, an opinion shared by Elizondo.

• Elizondo said, “…advanced physics and quantum mechanics…sudden and extreme acceleration, hypersonic velocities, low observability, trans-medium travel and… positive lift, or anti-gravity, is really a manifestation of a single technology …(that) we think we know…”.

• Fellow ‘Stars Academy’ member, physicist Dr. Hal Puthoff said in a recent radio interview that the tic-tac UFO created a ‘space-time metric’ “able to create their own space-time bubbles,” making it easy for UFOs to travel what humans perceive as impossible distances in a short period of time. Elizondo told CNN that the tic-tac UFO video doesn’t even compare with the other UFO footage that they plan to release.

• Dr. Thoedore C. Loder, Professor of Earth Sciences at the University of New Hampshire, predicted that revelations in propulsion technology will dramatically alter our 20th century view of physics and technology and must be considered in planning for both energy and transportation needs in the 21st century.

• The technologies fall into the following broad categories: a) quantum vacuum/ zero point field electromagnetic energy; b) electrogravitic and magnetogravitic energy; c) room temperature nuclear energy; and d) electrochemical internal combustion systems.

• The only real way the human experience can evolve and move forward is with total transparency. We are more than what we’ve been made to believe, and our capability and potential for good is far beyond anything we can imagine.

 

If this was a court of law, we are beyond reasonable doubt.” Those were the words of Luis Elizondo in a recent interview by I-Team Las Vegas and George Knapp (as seen in the picture). Last October, Elizondo ended his long career with the U.S. government, and with one of his most recent positions being the director of the Pentagon’s study of unknown aerial objects (ATTIP), he definately knows a thing or two about the subject. The program was authorized by Harry Reid, a former U.S. Senator in conjunction with Bigelow Aerospace.

Not long ago, the founder of Bigelow aerospace told the public (in a 60 minutes interview) that we are not alone, and that Earth is currently being visited by extraterrestrials. Elizondo also shared his belief that there is a lot of evidence showing that we’re “probably not alone, whatever that means.”

Elizondo is part of the To The Stars Academy, headed up by Tom Delonge, the company that the US Government is working with to disclose the existence of UFOs to the American public, as well as the exotic technologies that go with them. They are the ones the Pentagon went through to spread the release of their UFO footage.

The team also includes Jim Semivam, a former senior intelligence service member of the Central Intelligence Agency, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for intelligence Christopher Mellon, and a recently retired Program Director for Advanced Systems at Lockheed Martin, Steve Justice.

The company’s team also has Hal Puthoff, a co-founder of the US Government’s Stargate Progam, a 25 year program that investigated parapsychological phenomena.
When Elizondo made the court of law statement, he was referring to the scientific data, and more, we now have showing that something strange has been going on in our atmosphere for a very long time. He’s also gone on the record, stating that.
“For the first time, we have a compelling picture that what we are seeing is explained in our current understanding of physics, advanced physics, and quantum mechanics… perhaps all these observables that we have been seeing, for example: sudden and extreme acceleration, hypersonic velocities, low observability, trans-medium travel and last but not least positive lift, or anti-gravity, is really a manifestation of a single technology. So it’s not five exotic technologies we’re trying to figure out how it works. It’s one and we think we know that one too.”

“Spacetime Metric Engineering”

An article published on the To The Stars website states as follows,
“One of the scientists that helped figure it out is physicist Dr. Hal Puthoff. He wrote the proposal that helped Bigelow land the [DoD] contract to study UFOs and in a recent radio interview, said he commissioned 38 scientific papers during the study to explore exotic propulsion ideas, including what he called “spacetime metric engineering.” In essence, the Gimbal and Tic-Tac craft were able to create their own spacetime bubbles.”

One of the first statements Steve Justice (mentioned above) made using the To The Stars platform is that, when it comes to the technologies he’s been around, worked with, and seen, it would be an understatement to call them revolutionary.

He also stated, while discussing the concept for the craft that To The Stars plans to build, the following:
This is a concept for an international point-to-point transportation craft that will erase the current travel limits of distance and time. It mimics the capabilities observed in unidentified aerial phenomenon by employing a driver system that alters space-time metric. We have glimpses of how the physics of this works, but we need to harvest technologies from the Science Division to “realize” the capability.

By making this statement, he is telling the world that Unidentified Flying Objects (which are commonly tracked on military radar) utilize a device that somehow combats the problem of distance and time, making it easy for them to travel what we humans perceive as great and impossible distances in a short period of time.

UFO Metal Mystery: Material Allegedly Stored by Pentagon is ‘Not From This Earth’

by Jon Austin           February 22, 2018            (express.co.uk)

• The report claims that the Department of Defense Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) a program that was run by military intelligence official, Luis Elizondo, on the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring, had recovered “unknown alloys” believed to have come from a UFO that had been tested and found to have properties unknown to science, and are thus materials “not from this earth”.

• Luis Elizondo was interviewed in February by Alejandro Rojas, the host of the UFO Congress, the world’s biggest UFO conference, in Phoenix, Arizona. Rojas said, “I can tell you it is not a (normal) alloy like the New York Times claims.” Elizondo stated that it is a ‘meta material’ with strange isotopic values. A ‘meta material’ is a material made from assemblies of multiple elements fashioned from composite materials such as metals or plastics, that are engineered to have a property that is not found in nature.

• “The question is do they come from outer space or inner space or somewhere in between. I don’t know,” said Elizondo. “I think it is really, really unlikely to come from another country like Russia or China. Some people claim the materials were provided by UFO investigators, and others believe they were recovered by the government.

• The bulk of the money allocated by the DoD for the Pentagon program reportedly went to Bigelow Aerospace in Las Vegas, run by billionaire US businessman Robert Bigelow. Bigelow’s Las Vegas headquarters was modified to accommodate the storage of these alien materials. During an interview with prime time CBS current affairs show 60 Minutes in May 2017, Bigelow revealed that intelligent aliens are secretly living on Earth, and the government knows it.

• No images have surfaced of the alleged alien material, nor any details of where the objects were found, or how many items there have, or whether they have been tested, or what has ultimately happened to them.

• [Editor’s Note]  See 35:55 YouTube video below of Luis Elizondo answering a series of questions that was provided to the UFO Congress in February 2018.

 

Substances allegedly recovered from a UFO were found to be made of materials “not from this earth”, it has staggeringly been claimed. A top UFO expert told Express.co.uk he has been assured that the material has been tested and has been found to have inexplicable properties.

In December, a New York Time article revealed details of a top-secret £16 million US Pentagon study into the potential threat posed by UFOs.

The report claimed the Department of Defense (DoD) Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Programme (AATIP) even recovered “unknown alloys” believed to have come from a UFO that had been tested and found to have properties unknown to science.

The project was run by military intelligence official, Luis Elizondo, on the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring.
He has revealed two former classified videos of suspected UFOs that were looked at, but nothing to confirm the metal actually exists.

However, he has given an exclusive interview to the organisers of the UFO Congress, which is the world’s biggest UFO conference, and took place in Phoenix, Arizona, this month.

Alejandro Rojas, host of the UFO Congress said Mr Elizondo had told him more about the metal during the exclusive interviews that were screened at the event.

Mr Rojas said: “I can tell you it is not an alloy like the New York Times claims.

“I shared at our conference that Elizondo has told me it is a ‘meta material’ with strange isotopic values indicating it is not from earth.”

A metamaterial is a material engineered to have a property that is not found in nature. They are made from assemblies of multiple elements fashioned from composite materials such as metals or plastics.

No other details have so far surfaced, with some people claiming the materials were provided by UFO investigators, and others believing they were recovered by the government.

Mr Elizondo said in the interview: “The question is do they come from outer space or inner space or somewhere in between. I don’t know.

“The data we have been seeing is so advanced it is hard enough for us to replicate our observations with our understanding of quantum mechanics. But for this type of technology to be available when we first started seeing it, I think is beyond improbable, I’m not going to say impossible, but I think it is really, really unlikely to come from another country like Russia or China.

“It leads to the next quest if it is not ours and not theirs, then whose is it?

“I don’t know whose it is and that is why we are asking the questions and why we did what we did for the last 10 years and why we need to continue doing what we are doing because we need to ask those questions.

“We don’t know who they belong to, we don’t know who they are or what they are, but we know they are real.”

The bulk of the money allocated by the DoD for the project reportedly went via a contract to Bigelow Aerospace in Las Vegas, run by billionaire US businessman Robert Bigelow, who is also working with NASA to create a new expandable spacecraft.

Last May, Mr Bigelow stunned the world by declaring during an interview with prime time CBS current affairs show 60 Minutes intelligent aliens are secretly living on Earth, and the government knows.

Human Cloning about to be Unleashed upon the World

A February 28 report by the New York Times describes how Barbara Streisand paid $50,000 to have two clones made of her favorite pet dog that passed away last year. The story reveals how open source cloning has been quietly developed in scientific laboratories over the last 20 years, and is opening the door to human cloning becoming a reality in the near future. This is not a surprise given multiple whistleblower claims that human cloning was developed by the 1970’s in highly classified military projects.

The New York Times describes how cloning has evolved since “Dolly the Sheep” who was born in 1996. The New York Times tracks how research shifted over years to clone “about two dozen other mammal species, including cattle, deer, horses, rabbits, cats, rats — and yes, dogs.”

The first dog was cloned in 2005 by South Korean researchers at Sooam Biotech. This was followed in 2008 by a California company partnering with the South Koreans which successfully cloned three puppies from a group of five dogs. By 2015, Sooam Biotech, had cloned over 600 dogs according to reports from Business Insider and NPR.  

The lead Korean scientist behind the cloning is Hwang Woo Suk, who became infamous for fraudulently claiming he had cloned human embryos in 2004. Despite his fall from scientific grace, no one is doubting that he is successfully cloning dogs.

NPR reports that the cloning process is successful in about one in three attempts, and raises many ethical concerns about the number of miscarriages and the sickly pups that are eventually born.

This did not deter Streisand who used either Sooam Biotech or another Texas based company, her publicist did not reply to the New York Times about which one cloned her dog.

The New York Times summarized an interview Streisand gave with Variety Magazine about her two cloned puppies, which suggested she was satisfied with the results:

In her interview with Variety, Ms. Streisand revealed that two of her three Coton de Tulear dogs were clones. Specifically, the magazine reported that the dogs — Miss Violet and Miss Scarlett — had been cloned from cells taken from the mouth and stomach of Ms. Streisand’s late dog Samantha, who was 14 when she died last year.

Miss Violet and Miss Scarlett “have different personalities,” Ms. Streisand told Variety. “I’m waiting for them to get older so I can see if they have her brown eyes and her seriousness.”

The fact that over 600 dogs have been cloned so far by a Korean researcher made infamous for claims about cloning humans, suggests it is only a matter of time before human cloning becomes a reality.

However, according to a number of whistleblowers, cloning has been occurring since at least the 1970’s. Dr Peter Beter was appointed by President John F. Kennedy to serve as General Counsel for the Export-Import Bank of the United States, a position he held from 1961 to 1967. In an audioletter dated May 28, 1979, Dr. Beter said:

Clones of all kinds of animals have been produced successfully in the laboratory, but that is not what bothers people. In the recent past it has been claimed that human clones are also possible and that some may already be in existence. These last claims about human clones have been ridiculed, denied, and suppressed by all kinds of officials–the reason is that the idea of duplicate human beings impinges upon a super-secret realm of Intelligence activities by both Russia and the United States.

It’s noteworthy to point out that animal cloning according to Dr. Beter was occurring at least 20 years before Dolly the Sheep in highly classified research projects.

It is the claims of Michael Wolf that are next worth considering since he says he was involved in the creation of the first human clone in a classified research facility. Chris Stonor wrote an article summarizing an interview with Wolf in October 2000:

He was involved in various genetic experiments – one being the Sentinel Project. After perfecting cloning techniques on animals Dr Wolf and his associates successfully created an artificially-intelligent human named ‘J-Type Omega’ – their superiors wanted a superbright, superpowerful soldier who would follow orders without fear or question. But Dr Wolf surreptitiously programmed ethics into its intelligence after realizing that ‘J Type’ had a soul.…

The Sentinel Project involved a close association with the ‘Greys’. The ETs vast knowledge on genetics being essential for its success. ‘J Omega’ was grown in a water tank from an embryo. Part of the DNA used came from Dr Wolf. It took exactly one year before he was ready to be ‘awoken’.

In Wolf’s 1993 book, The Catchers of Heaven: A Trilogy, he explained how he was instructed to terminate the clone since it refused to follow an order by his military superiors to kill a dog:

Of course, man has always wanted to create a being in his own image… We can do it now. We have done it! He was terminated, however, because he couldn’t follow orders; he couldn’t shoot an animal. This being told the big brass that I said: “People do not do things unless there’s a good reason to do it. I see no good reason to kill this harmless dog. (The Catchers of Heaven, p. 9)

Wolf asserted that from 1972 to 1977 he worked on highly classified at the S-4 facility at Papoose lake, and Area 51 more generally. It was during this period that the J Omega human clone was allegedly created.

Other more recent whistleblowers who have come forward to claim that human cloning has been around for decades in classified projects include William Tompkins, Corey Goode  and Emery Smith.

It is generally accepted that classified research projects are typically two or three decades ahead of their open sources equivalents. Therefore, the revelations of Beter, Wolf, Tompkins, Goode and Smith concerning the existence of human cloning experiments going as far back as the 1970’s, if not earlier, have just been scientifically vindicated by the New York Times story.

The fact that animal cloning is now available for those willing to pay $50,000 for former pets, raises the likelihood than in the very near future, people will be asked to pay similar or higher fees for clones of former relatives, persons of interest, or even themselves. It’s very likely that the New York Times story on Streisand is preparing the general public for human cloning as a future commercial enterprise, despite the many ethical issues it raises.

Ex-Canadian Minister: ‘Small Cabal’ is Running World, Could Avert Climate Change

February 13, 2018          (sputniknews.com)

• The former Minister of Defence for Canada, Paul Hellyer, has often said that extraterrestrial beings have contacted various people on the Earth, warning them about the consequences of the humanity’s actions for the future of planet’s environment. Moscow-based Sputniknews relates a more specific claim that was made by Mr Hellyer when recently interviewed on the Lazarus Effect podcast.

• Said Mr Hellyer,“…At least a decade ago that the United States, in cooperation with the visitors from other planets, have developed [an] exotic form of energy that would allow us to change over… to green energy. But nothing has been done about it. And you got a small cabal… that managed to keep this technology under wraps until they can cash in… [their] oil assets.” In other words, a small group of people have withheld crucial green technologies in order to maximize their profits from their fossil fuel assets – oil, petroleum, and natural gas.

• Mr Hellyer says that this suppressed new technology was created ten years ago through a collaboration between the United States and extraterrestrials.

• Hellyer reveals that a “small cabal” is literally running our world the way they want. This cabal of elite humans is also known as the Illuminati. Mr Hellyer believes that people can and should resist this group, by joining together to bring the dark actions of this Illuminati cabal into the public consciousness. “It’s not going to change until literally hundreds of thousands of people… band together and say, “you’ve got to come clean,… change your priorities to save the world for further generations,” said Hellyer.

 

According to Paul Hellyer the US government, in cooperation with extraterrestrial forces, have developed new green sources of energy, but the small elitist group withhold it, trying to suck out the last profits from their fossil fuel assets.

Well, that’s something new. It turns out that climate change could have been averted long ago and fossil fuels are already history. There is one small problem – according to former Canadian Defense Minister Paul Hellyer, a small group of people is withholding crucial green technologies in order to gain maximum profit from their fuel assets. But the real cherry on top of this story is that those technologies were created nearly ten years ago in collaboration between the US and extraterrestrials!

“…At least a decade ago that the United States in cooperation with the visitors from the other planet have developed exotic form of energy that would allow us to change over […] to green energy. But nothing has been done about it and you got a small cabal […] that managed to keep this technology under wraps until they can cash in […] oil assets,” said the ex-minister.

In his interview to the Lazarus Effect podcast, Hellyer also claimed that the “small cabal” (who are also often addressed as the Illuminati) is literally running our world the way they want. Well, if they can connect with extraterrestrial life forms and develop such advanced technologies, then they are probably capable of doing that. However, Hellyer believes that people can and should resist this group, by banding together and forcing those pesky Illuminati into the open.

According to a New Theory, People With Rh-Negative Blood Don’t Come From Earth

by Anna Ketler             February 8, 2018            (collective-evolution.com)

• Some say that the fifteen percent of people who have Rh-negative blood could be a separate humanoid species from the majority. A pregnant woman’s own blood might attack an Rh-positive fetus in the womb. Rh-negative blood has the exclusive ability to withstand or resist certain diseases. The Basque area of Spain has the highest percentage of people with Rh-negative blood at thirty percent.

• One theory suggests that people with Rh-Negative blood are descendants of the Hyperborean race, a blonde-haired and blue-eyed race of humans. Hitler believed them to be the superior Aryan race. And some link this race to Jesus of Nazareth.
• Might this blonde race (or sometimes red-headed) have been another human race on Earth, bred by extraterrestrial geneticists? Or are they the extraterrestrials themselves, stranded on Earth for some reason?

• [Editor’s Note]  The possibilities don’t end there. There must be more than a dozen unexplained humanoid races or species ranging from the Neanderthals and Denisovans to the truly alien looking humanoids such as the Nazca and Paracas mummies in Peru.  A new one seems to show up every year. It supports the theory that we are a hodgepodge of humanoid races and species dumped on this planet to either save them from a cosmic war or calamity, or to mine Anunnaki gold.  My question is, were/are the Nazi Germans, who were selected to serve in the Dark Fleet space fleet alongside the Draco Reptilians, Rh-negative?

 

So, being that I myself, am someone who has RH negative blood, whenever I see something posted about how people with this blood type are alien, from another planet or are part of a special blood type I have been intrigued to learn more. I mean, I already know that I’m special, but is there some actual evidence to prove this? If so, I’ll take it.

You may have heard of the theories that those with Rh-negative blood actually have a kind of alien DNA. These theories exist because it is very difficult to explain why around 15% of the population have this type of blood. One factor worth considering is that monkeys – even though we apparently came from the same ancestor – do not have Rh-negative blood. All monkeys are Rh-positive, which I guess means that monkeys are not aliens, and potentially that we aren’t related to them after all? If we were, wouldn’t they carry the same blood type as us? The highest grouping of people who have Rh-negative blood live in the Basque area of Spain and around 30% of this population is Rh- negative.

A Woman With Rh-Negative Can’t Have An Rh-Positive Baby – Without Medical Assistance

Interestingly, if a woman who is Rh-negative is pregnant with a baby who is Rh-positive, her body may recognize this child as a foreign being and develop antibodies to attack it because Rh-positive and negative blood do not mix. Luckily with the assistance of modern medicine, there is a treatment that the mothers can have to prevent this from happening.

Those with Rh-negative blood also potentially have an ability to withstand or resist certain diseases, one in particular is a parasite called Toxoplasma. This can invade the body and damage the brain, especially in babies.

So, Where Did The Alien Idea Come From?

The most likely reason for this idea comes from the fact that it’s such a small percentage of the population and that the Rh-negative blood typed woman would terminate the pregnancy of an Rh-positive baby. Perhaps this human is not meant to procreate with the other type of human? Who really knows, but there are all sorts of fun theories floating around the internet, but as with many other things of this nature there is no real way to prove these theories.

A theory presented on Ancient-Origins suggests that the Rh-negative gene represents a completely separate branch of humanity that interbred with the “original” branch that came out of Africa, this theory also suggests that those with the Rh-Negative blood are descendants of the Hyperborean race, which is believed to be the real, original human race. Those who believe this idea also believe that this race was blonde-haired and blue-eyed – yes, this is similar to the belief of Hitler who believed that the Aryan race, also blonde-haired and blue-eyed, was the superior and supreme human race. Some followers of this theory also believe that this race includes most spiritual teachers, including the fairly well known, Mr. Jesus Christ.

Mars Was Destroyed by Interplanetary Nuclear War in Battle Described in Bible

by Sean Martin           February 5, 2018              (express.co.uk)

• Astrophysicist John Brandenburg brought forth evidence of a thermonuclear blast on Mars in his 2015 book, Death on Mars, which destroyed the Mars civilization there in the ancient past and rendered Mars a barren planet.

• This discovery supported widespread theories of an ancient war tens of thousands of years ago between the inhabitants of Mars and a much larger planet named Maldek. In the conflagration, Maldek was blown to bits and became the asteroid belt.

• Some believe that the inhabitants of Mars were human-like, while the inhabitants of Maldek were humanoid reptilians. Accounts found in the Bible might support this theory. Revelation 12:7 reads: “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels (Mars humans) fought against the dragon (Maldek reptilians); and the dragon and his angels fought.” Revelation 12:8-9, continues: “But he (Michael) was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven.”

• [Editor’s Note] See what George Kavassilas says about the destruction of Mars in this ExoNews video of February 12, 2018 beginning at 33:50

 

Huge devastation in Heaven was included in the Old Testament but now many believe there could be greater meaning.

Revelation 12:7 reads: “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought.”

This leads on to Revelation 12:8-9, which says: “But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven.”

Christians and conspiracy theorists now believe that this was a “literal war” in the skies which took place on Mars and wiped out a civilisation on the Red Planet.

Dr John Brandenburg, a plasma physicist working as a consultant at Morningstar Applied Physics LLC, says in his book, Death on Mars, that nuclear isotopes found on the Red Planet “resemble those from hydrogen bombs on Earth” and a “Martian civilisation apparently perished due to a planet-wide catastrophe of unknown origin”.

According to conspiracy website Planet X News, this supposed war happened 75,000 years ago and was an interplanetary battle that happened between Mars and Maldek – a theorised planet once existing between Mars and Jupiter.

The war was between humanoids, which lived on Mars and reptilian creatures which occupied Maldek, the website claims.

While Maldek was completely destroyed, Mars was left uninhabitable and forced the residents of the Red Planet to move to Earth.

DNA Tests Reveal Where ‘Elongated Heads Came From’

by Jon Austin          February 13, 2018              (express.co.uk)

• In 1928, archaeologist Julio Tello discovered more than 300 odd skeletal remains in a complex grave system on the desert peninsula of Paracas, on the southern coast of Peru. The skulls were unusually elongated. These became known as the “Paracas skulls”.

• The Paracas History Museum, in conjunction with the Peruvian Government, recently conducted DNA tests on these Paracas skulls. They scientists have now concluded that these skeletons are from another human sub-species that first emerged from the area of the Caucasus Mountains between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, where other similar skulls have been found, 3,000 years ago. The museum’s director, Brian Foerster, has accepted that they are human in origin, and they somehow migrated to Peru.(see 6:05 minute YouTube video below)

• Foerster goes on to say that the Paracas skulls are “… structurally different and only have one parietal plate as opposed to the two normally found in human skulls. …You could say, in some ways… they were a mix or… hybrid of different people.” But it is certain that the skulls’ elongation is due to genetics and not by intentional cranial deformation by intentional binding, because the cranial volume of the Homo-Sapiens-Sapiens-Paracas is 25 per cent larger and 60 per cent heavier than that of a conventional human skull.

• [Editor’s Note] It sounds like these mainstream scientists concluded that this had to be a new human sub-species indigenous to the Earth according to the generally accepted scientific principle that there’s no such thing as extraterrestrials. Nothing in the given evidence contradicts the theory that they could be remnants of an Anunnaki species that was stranded on the Earth after the pole shift in 12,000 BC that shifted Atlantis to the South Pole to become Antarctica. This makes more sense than a wildly deformed human sub-species that migrated 15,000 miles from the Caucuses eastward to Peru at the beginning of the Iron Age.

 

Researcher Brian Foerster initially thought the discovery would not fit into the “known evolutionary tree”.

The Paracas skulls were discovered on the desert peninsula of Paracas, on the southern coast of Peru, by native archaeologist Julio Tello in 1928.

In 2015, discussing earlier DNA tests on the remains, he said: “The mitochondrial DNA (from the mother) presented mutations unknown to any man, primate or any other animal and the mutations suggested we are dealing with a completely new human-like being, very distant from Homo sapiens, Neanderthals or Denisovans.

“I am not sure it will even fit into the known evolutionary tree.”

Research by skeptics later uncovered that those involved had a history of involvement and belief in research into paranormal subjects such as the Yeti and so-called alien hybrids, an alleged cross breed between humans and aliens.

Skeptics argue the skulls are just another example of intentional cranial deformation, as seen among many ancient South American tribes.

Now Mr Foerster, who is director of the Paracas History Museum, has released details of DNA tests he said were carried out in conjunction with the Peruvian Government and he appears to now accept they were probably human in origin.

In two video updates about the DNA, Mr Foerster made no mention of extraterrestrials.
He described how the Paracas skulls appeared to share DNA links with other elongated skulls found between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.

Mr Foerster believes the elongation is not just caused by artificial cranial deformation, but rather by genetics with some of the elongated skulls cranial volume being up to 25 per cent larger and 60 per cent heavier than conventional human skulls.

He says this means that they could not have been intentionally deformed through head binding or flattening, as cranial deformation can change the shape but does not alter the volume or weight of a skull.
Speaking at the Elongated Skulls Symposium in Los Angeles, Mr Foerster said: “What it does show for sure is that the Paracas elongated skull people were not 100 per cent Native American.

“They were a mix or even you could say, in some ways, a hybrid of different people.

“Their blood types are very complicated as well, they should be blood type O if they’re 100 percent Native American and that’s not the case.

“We are likely looking at a sub-species of humanity as regards to the Paracas. It seems to be a lot of DNA evidence from extreme eastern Europe and extreme western Asia.

“More specifically I’m talking about the area in between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea where ancient elongated skull people lived I think about 3,000 years ago.

“So I think we are looking at a migration pattern starting in the Caspian Black Sea area and then entering through the Persian Gulf and then moving eastwards eventually winding up on the coast of Peru.”

He added: “It appears that the largest elongated skulls on the planet have been found, A in Paracas, Peru and B in the Caucasus area in between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.

“So my theory is that there was a sub-species of human which we are going to be eventually calling Homo-Sapiens-Sapiens-Paracas, and they were living in the area in between the Caspian and Black Sea.
“They were invaded by somebody and so they were forced to flee.”

Archaelogist Mr Tello found more than 300 of the odd skeletal remains in a complex grave system in 1928.

Scientists say it was the most extreme example of skull elongation, a deformation practice carried out by several ancient cultures by binding infants heads through pieces of wood, ever found.

Many conspiracy theorists remain convinced they must have been the skulls of visiting aliens.

Invisible Sailors and a Bar-Room Brawl

by Nick Redfern           January 24, 2018              (mysteriousuniverse.org)

  • The infamous “The Philadelphia Experiment” came from a man named Carlos Allende who claimed that, in 1943, the Navy was doing (cloaking) experiments based on Einstein’s Unified Field Theory, and accidentally transported the Navy ship, the USS Eldridge, from the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard to a Norfolk shipyard, and back again. Allende claims that while he was in the Navy during WWII he witnessed several such experiments. The Navy didn’t deny these experiments.

  • An investigator named Bill Moore claims to have seen a newspaper article about an occurrence that happened at the same time. There was a brawl involving sailors at a local bar. The Navy Shore Patrol arrived to break it up. When local police arrived to back up the Shore Patrol, the bar was empty. A waitress told the police that two of the sailors in the brawl had simply disappeared in the bar. “They just sort of vanished into thin air… right there,” reported a frightened hostess, “and I ain’t been drinking either!”

  • Six years later, an unassociated Navy man was told the story of a “bunch of sailors” who had mysteriously vanished from a bar somewhere near the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard. But this occurred prior to the ‘Philadelphia Experiment’s’ public disclosure in the mid-1950’s.

  • [Editor’s Note]  There is a lot more to the story. The sailors aboard the USS Eldridge were disoriented and some were encapsulated in the bulkhead of the ship due to shifting time-space. A time-space window would cause further anomalies at twenty-year intervals. Two of the Eldridge sailors were brothers Duncan and Ed Cameron. Ed changed his name to Al Bielek and claimed to have time-traveld on several occasions as a result of this incident. Bielek died in 2011. Duncan Cameron remains a prominent figure in the disclosure movement.

 

Just like the Roswell saga of 1947, the 1967 Patterson-Gimlin film of a Bigfoot (or of a man in a suit, depending on your opinion), and the theory that the Moon-landings were faked, just about everyone has heard of what has become infamously known as “The Philadelphia Experiment.”

According to the wild claims of a man named Carlos Allende (told to writer Morris K. Jessup in the mid-1950s) in 1943, and during a classified project, a ship was made invisible and teleported from the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard to Norfolk, Virginia. And back again. It was all said to have been an outgrowth of Albert Einstein’s Unified Field Theory. Allende claimed the ship in question was the DE 173 USS Eldridge. Allende didn’t stop there: he said he saw one of several such experiments from the safety of his own ship, the SS Andrew Furuseth. Few researchers today have much time for Allende’s stories.

No one disputes that something led to the creation of the legend of the vanishing ship and its crew. Indeed, even the U.S. Navy admits that some of its wartime experiments may have provoked a number of the rumors. There is one aspect of the story that often pops up in conversations of the Philadelphia Experiment kind, mainly because it’s so entertainingly weird.

                        USS Eldridge

Investigator Bill Moore (who, in 1979 and with Charles Berlitz, wrote The Philadelphia Experiment) revealed a strange story extracted from a newspaper that has still yet to be identified. It described the sudden vanishing – and I do mean vanishing, as in here one second and gone the next – of a number of sailors in a local pub.

With the eye-catching headline of “Strange Circumstances Surround Tavern Brawl,” the story went as follows:
“Several city police officers responding to a call to aid members of the Navy Shore Patrol in breaking up a tavern brawl near the U.S. Navy docks here last night got something of a surprise when they arrived on the scene to find the place empty of customers. According to a pair of very nervous waitresses, the Shore Patrol had arrived first and cleared the place out -but not before two of the sailors involved allegedly did a disappearing act. ‘They just sort of vanished into thin air… right there,’ reported one of the frightened hostesses, ‘and I ain’t been drinking either!’ At that point, according to her account, the Shore Patrol proceeded to hustle everybody out of the place in short order.”

The story continued: “A subsequent chat with the local police precinct left no doubts as to the fact that some sort of general brawl had indeed occurred in the vicinity of the dockyards at about eleven o’clock last night, but neither confirmation nor denial of the stranger aspects of the story could be immediately obtained. One reported witness succinctly summed up the affair by dismissing it as nothing more than ‘a lot of hooey from them daffy dames down there,’ who, he went on to say, were probably just looking for some free publicity. Damage to the tavern was estimated to be in the vicinity of six hundred dollars.”

Moore and Berlitz’s assessment was that: “Little else can be said about the clipping itself. Anything approaching a proper analysis of the clipping is impossible, since the authors possess a photocopy only. Upon close examination, however, the possibly significant fact emerges that the column width is a bit greater than was used by any of the Philadelphia dailies in the 1940s. This suggests that the article may have originated in a local or regional newspaper in the Philadelphia area rather than in one of the metropolitan papers.”

Scientists Wrong In Ruling Out ‘Alien Megastructure’ Around Dimming Star

by Norman Byrd          January 21, 2018          (inquisitr.com)

• “Tabby’s Star”, or KIC 8462852, is over 1000 light years from Earth and displays four separate dips in the star’s brightness. It made news in 2017 that its dimming might be due to an alien megastructure or some type of artificial construct of alien design such as a ‘Dyson Sphere’ partially covering the star.

• Now, in an article posted to Phys.org, one of the lead co-authors of the study, the star’s namesake Tabetha Boyajian, notes that the dimming and brightening of Tabby’s Star is due to a massive cloud of dust and is “not opaque, as would be expected from a planet or alien megastructure.” She and her co-authors say that an artificial alien structure can be ruled out because if it were a solid megastructure, the wavelength depth of the dimming would more consistent.

• But couldn’t an alien structure surrounding the system’s star not necessarily be of a solid material, but rather made of a type of material that would allow some filtering of the light? Or what if it is only partially completed and therefore not consistent in its dimming? It is, therefore, wrong to strictly rule out the possibility that the star’s dimming might be due to an alien construct around the star. On the other hand, it could be simply due causes that are natural in the cosmos, as the astrophysicists now say.

 

One of the continuing story subtexts in all the recent deep space and exoplanet discovery articles, not to mention those covering the accumulating data from planets and moons within our own Solar System, is that the existence of alien life cannot be ruled out. As an exception to this, in further study of Tabby’s Star, the mysterious dimming star KIC 8462852, it was revealed that the cause of the dimming effect was most likely due to a natural phenomenon, and it could be ruled out that the strange effect was caused by an alien megastructure or some artificial construct of alien design.

But is that correct?

To be precise, according to an article posted to Phys.org, one of the lead co-authors of the study, star namesake Louisiana State University’s Tabetha Boyajian, noted that the dimming and brightening of KIC 8462852 was due to a massive cloud of dust and was “not opaque, as would be expected from a planet or alien megastructure.” The conclusion was derived from perusing months of observation data of the so-called “dimming star” — which is over a thousand light years from Earth — that captured four separate dips in the object’s brightness. By studying the various wavelengths, it was determined that the effect, if it were a more solid or opaque obstruction, would present itself in the dimming data as a similarity in wavelength depth.

Penn State’s Jason Wright, also a co-author of the study, supports Boyajian’s conclusion. He writes in his blog, AstroWright, that the new study suggests “we now have no reason to think alien megastructures have anything to do with the dips of Tabby’s Star.”

Although they may be correct, Boyajian and Wright’s conclusion could well be flawed in the thinking that an extraterrestrial civilization so advanced to be able to build an alien megastructure that could surround (or even partially surround) something as large as a star would be constrained to using materials that might not allow some filtering. That is, not getting similar wavelengths or some wavelength uniformity from the dimming star data might not actually rule out an alien megastructure if such a massive construct was built using materials that allowed at least some of the star’s light to pass through.

And then there is the possibility that the dimming is caused by a structure that is itself only partially complete.

Mysterious Signal From a Galaxy Far, Far Away Could Just Be An Alien Soap Opera

by Bill Bain            January 20, 2018            (heraldscotland.com)

• By now, the earliest of the Earth’s radio and television broadcast signals emanating into space would have reached a few hundred nearby stars. Conversely, we here on Earth have been receiving very similar radio broadcasts from deep space for decades, but have been unable to interpret or explain these interstellar radio signals.

• In August 2017, radio astronomers picked up the first-ever “fast radio burst” that actually repeated itself. The insistence of the signal, named FRB 121102, made it possible for the world’s most powerful telescopes to discover where it originated, which turned out to be a galaxy three billion light years from Earth.

• This perplexing broadcast very recently went into overdrive with unimaginable amounts of focused energy. A single millisecond-long blast radiates the same energy as our sun radiates in one day. “If this was even on the distant side of our own galaxy, it would completely disrupt radio on Earth and saturate signals on smartphones,” said a senior astronomy research associate at Cornell University.

• This FRB 121102 signal would now be three billion years old. Any civilization capable of transmitting it would likely be long gone, having either destroyed itself, replaced by machines, or incinerated by their dying sun.

• [Editor’s Note] On the other hand, a civilization that is three billion years old would likely have ascended to a universal state of higher consciousness and have no further need of radio and television broadcasts. They should have cable by now.

 

A CACOPHONY of radio and television signals transmitted over the past 100 years have effectively turned Earth into an astral megaphone, violating the tranquility of infinity with incessant pulses of sound and vision. Our naked exhibitionism is certainly worthy of an interstellar Asbo, with each and every broadcast escaping into space to pollute the entire galaxy.

Theoretically, any reasonably advanced alien civilisation could easily tune into this cosmic UK Gold for a comprehensive insight into Earth’s last century. It’s estimated that our oldest transmissions – the first radio broadcasts – have already reached a few hundred “nearby” stars. Prepare for imminent attack when Piers Morgan’s voice finally reaches Alpha Centauri.

Astrophysicist Carl Sagan once wryly theorised that the first television broadcast with a signal powerful enough to reach extraterrestrials would have been Hitler’s Nuremberg rallies. If this had somehow failed to profoundly depress our cosmic neighbours, perhaps watching the actual Neighbours – and remember the same episode was often repeated twice a day – may have given them no other option than to declare war. Or at least relegate us to the lowest rung on the ladder of universal consciousness.
Yet transmissions work both ways. It’s no secret that even this primitive outpost has been picking up radio broadcasts from deep space for decades. Interpreting and explaining them is another matter, with scientists taking decades to figure out that the vast majority of interstellar radio signals naturally emanate from neutron stars called pulsars. Yet major anomalies persist – the most famous example being a mysterious transmission picked up by astronomers last year.

In August, the discovery of FRB 121102 was excitedly announced – the first-ever “fast radio burst” that actually repeated itself. This was an unprecedented and deeply unusual phenomenon. The insistency of the signal made it possible for the world’s most powerful telescopes to discover where it originated, which turned out to be a galaxy far, far away – three billion light years from Earth. All that existed on Earth when these signals were first sent was Kirk Douglas.

Furthering the mystery, this perplexing broadcast very recently went into overdrive, with unimaginable amounts of focused energy being manically hurled through space and time – like Thor’s hammer being attacked by a woodpecker. The only solid fact scientists can deduce is that it is fortunate we’re so far away – a single millisecond-long blast radiates the same energy as our sun does in a day. “If this was even on the distant side of our own galaxy, it would completely disrupt radio on Earth and saturate signals on smartphones,” said Shami Chatterjee, senior research associate in astronomy at Cornell University. “Whatever is happening is scary. We would not want to be there.”

Aliens Sending Gamma Rays ‘To Make First Contact’ – Scientist Sensationally Claims

by Anders Anglesey           January 17, 2018           (dailystar.co.uk)

• According a research piece titled “Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs),” Dr. John Ball, an astronomer at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), claimed that a two-millisecond gamma ray burst contains quintillion bits of information and believes that it contains information from civilizations on distant worlds.

• “So far as we know, gamma rays offer the widest practical communications bandwidth in the electro-magnetic spectrum and the only feasible way to send large quantities of information over intergalactic distances,” said Dr. Ball.

 

Dr John Ball, an astronomer at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), believes the strange gamma ray bursts contain information from civilisations on distant worlds.

According a research piece titled “Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs)” Mr Ball claimed the two-millisecond burst contains quintillion bits of information.

He added: “GRBs may be signals transmitted by extraterrestrial civilisations.

“The temporal shape of the bursts at the transmitter is probably a simple pulse and the complex shapes we see are due to distortions en route primarily gravitational lensing.

Wow! Signal Makes Waves in New Documentary on Search for Extraterrestrials

by Joe Blundo             January 16, 2018             (dispatch.com)

• On Aug. 15, 1977, Big Ear, a large Delaware County, Ohio installation detected natural radio waves coming from space, recorded an extremely strong signal. A computer expressed the signal in alphanumeric code (6EQUJ5). Jerry Ehman, a volunteer at the facility, spotted the powerful signal, circled it and wrote “Wow!” in the margin. John Kraus, the Ohio State professor who led the Big Ear program, dubbed it the “Wow! signal”.

• Now, film director Bob Dawson tells the story of Ohio State University’s ‘Big Ea’ radio telescope and other efforts to detect signs of intelligent life in space in his documentary film, “WOW Signal”. The film reaches no conclusion on the signal that captivated Ehman. “The job of a documentary filmmaker is never to come to a conclusion,” Dawson said. “It’s always to present the evidence and let your audience decide.”

 

More than 40 years later, Jerry Ehman’s one-word reaction to what he read on a computer printout continues to fascinate others.

The word: Wow!

It still brings Ehman calls from UFO enthusiasts, got him mentioned on the original “X-Files” and has landed him a prominent role in “WOW Signal,” a feature-length documentary being screened in local theaters this month.

“WOW Signal,” directed by local filmmaker Bob Dawson, tells the story of Ohio State University’s “Big Ear” radio telescope and other efforts to detect signs of intelligent life in space.

On Aug. 15, 1977, Big Ear, a large Delaware County installation that detected the natural radio waves coming from space, recorded an extremely strong signal that, for several reasons, suggested that it could have been produced by an intelligent life form.

A computer expressed the signal in alphanumeric code (6EQUJ5). Ehman, a volunteer who reviewed printouts of what the computer recorded, spotted the powerful signal, circled it and wrote “Wow!” in the margin.

John Kraus, the Ohio State professor who led the construction of Big Ear, dubbed it the “Wow! signal” and wrote about it in scientific publications.

Neither Kraus, who died in 2004, nor Ehman, now 78 and living in southern Delaware County, called the signal proof of intelligent life. Ehman said he prefers “tantalizing candidate.”

It has yet to be explained, although one astronomer made news last year with his theory that the signal was made by passing comets. Ehman discounts that theory.

Dawson, director of several previous documentaries, was familiar with the Big Ear story from an exhibit at the Ohio Historical Society (now called the Ohio History Center), where he previously worked. His film goes beyond Big Ear, demolished in 1998 after a land sale, to investigate ongoing efforts to find extraterrestrial intelligence and the passion of scientists who do the work.

It reaches no conclusion on the signal that captivated Ehman.

“The job of a documentary filmmaker is never to come to a conclusion,” Dawson said. “It’s always to present the evidence and let your audience    decide.”
Some have already decided.

Tractor Beam Breakthrough Could One Day Levitate Humans

January 23, 2018               (rt.com)

• Levitating humans could be in our future, thanks to a scientific breakthrough in acoustic tractor beam technology, which can now lift larger objects than ever before. (see 41-second video below) In an article published January 22nd in the Physical Review Letters, engineers from the University of Bristol have demonstrated that it’s possible to stably levitate objects using the world’s most powerful acoustic tractor beams.

• Acoustic tractor beams use ultrasonic soundwaves that humans can’t hear to hold particles in the air. It was previously believed they could only be used to levitate very small objects which were about the same size as a wavelength of sound, but the research demonstrates the potential for far larger objects to be levitated.

 

Levitating humans could be in our future, thanks to a scientific breakthrough in acoustic tractor beam technology, which can now lift larger objects than ever before.

Engineers from the University of Bristol have demonstrated that it’s possible to stably levitate objects using the world’s most powerful acoustic tractor beams. Their findings were published in the Physical Review Letters on Monday.

Acoustic tractor beams use soundwaves to hold particles in the air. It was previously believed they could only be used to levitate very small objects which were about the same size as a wavelength of sound, but the research demonstrates the potential for far larger objects to be levitated.

“Acoustic researchers had been frustrated by the size limit for years, so its satisfying to find a way to overcome it,” said the study’s lead author, Dr Asier Marzo of Bristol’s Department of Mechanical Engineering. “I think it opens the door to many new applications.”

The technique creates a tornado-like effect with acoustic vortices, which researchers said are like, “tornadoes of sound, made of a twister-like structure with loud sound surrounding a silent core.”
When researchers changed the direction of the acoustic vortices, they were able to stabilize the tractor beam and its rate of rotation. They were then able to increase the size of the core at the center of the sound tornado, allowing it to carry bigger objects.

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.”

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.
