U.S. ECOLOGIST CLAIMS HUMANS DID NOT COME FROM EARTH, BUT WERE PUT HERE BY ALIENS MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO

A U.S. ecologist has claimed that humans are not from Earth but were put on the planet by aliens tens of thousands of years ago.

• A U.S. ecologist says conditions such as bad backs and sunburn suggest humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth
• In a new book, Dr Ellis Silver says aliens put humans our planet as recently as tens of thousands of years ago
• He suggests the Earth might be a prison planet, since humans seem to be a naturally violent species and are here until we learn to behave ourselves

Dr Ellis Silver points to a number of physiological features to make his case for why humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth, in his new book.

They range from humans suffering from bad backs - which he suggests is because we evolved in a world with lower gravity – to getting too easily sunburned and having difficulty giving birth.

Dr Ellis says that while the planet meets humans’ needs for the most part, it does not perhaps serve the species’ interests as well as the aliens who dropped us off imagined.

In his book, HUMANS ARE NOT FROM EARTH: A SCIENTIFIC EVALUATION OF THE EVIDENCE, the ecologist writes the human race has defects that mark it of being ‘not of this world’.

He told Yahoo.

"Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth's environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more." 

Dr Ellis says that humans might suffer from bad backs because they evolved on a world with lower gravity.

He also says that it is strange that babies’ heads are so large and make it difficult for women to give birth, which can result in fatalities of the mother and infant.

He also says that it is strange that babies' heads are so large and make it difficult for women to give birth, which resulted in fatalities in earlier times. (Click Image To Enlarge)

No other native species on this planet has this problem, he says.

He also believes humans are not designed to be as exposed to the sun as they are on Earth, as they cannot sunbathe for more than a week or two – unlike a lizard – and cannot be exposed to the sun every day without problems.

Dr Ellis also claims humans are always ill and this might be because our body clocks have evolved to expects a 25 hour day, as proven by sleep researchers.

He says.  

"This is not a modern condition; the same factors can be traced all the way back through mankind's history on Earth."

He suggests that Neanderthals such as homo erectus were crossbred with another species, perhaps from Alpha Centauri, which is the closest star system to our solar system, some 4.37 light years away from the sun.

Dr Ellis said many people feel that they don’t belong and feel at home on Earth.  He said.  

"This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species.  One reason for this … is that the Earth might be a prison planet, since we seem to be a naturally violent species and we're here until we learn to behave ourselves."

Dr Ellis said the book is intended to create debate, instead of being a scientific study and hopes it will lead to people getting in touch with him with further suggestions of 'evidence'.

While other scientists have said some bacteria arrived on Earth from space, Chris McKay, an astrobiologist at NASA, said that to jump to the conclusion that it is alien life is "a big jump".

Was this home? Dr Ellis suggests Neanderthals such as homo erectus were crossbred with another species, perhaps from Alpha Centauri. Star Proxima Centauri is pictured in the star system, which is the closest to our solar system some 4.37 light years away from the sun. (Click Image To Enlarge)

Professor Wainwright from the University of Sheffield plans to investigate further, and believes that life is constantly arriving from space that did not originate on Earth.

Dr Ellis says that while his idea is an extreme evolution of that idea, it is intended to be thought-provoking and he claims to have had a largely positive response to it.

He is interested in whether humans came to Earth separately, perhaps by arriving on meteors and comets, before evolving into the species we know today.

He says.  

"My thesis proposes that mankind did not evolve from that particular strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago."

COMMENTARY:   For some time now, I have come to the conclusion that modern man (a.k.a. homo sapiens), was engineered from the DNA of pre-historic Cromagnon Man, the species of humans that preceded Homo Sapiens.  

I also believe that Earth was been visited by intelligent extra-terrestrial beings, many thousands of years ago, and they have been using our planet as a laboratory for their DNA experiments on both human and animal species.  The Earth in effect has become a sort of labratory for DNA experimentation on a planetary scale.  

These alient DNA experiments may account for the physical differences between humans of different continents.  Each continental species was engineered so that they could cope with their local environments. This may help explain why humans from the continent of Africa, Latin and South America are generally darker skinned and have darker hair due to the hotter climates and abundance of sun in these geographic locations   Europeans and North Americans, on the other hand, tend to be lighter skinned and have lighter hair because they tend to have less sun and the climates tend to experience both cold and warm periods throughout the year.  

Personally, I believe that humans experience back problems and other skeletal and neurological illnesses or disorders because of poor posture, lack of exercise and improper nutrition and diet. African humans tend to be known for their physical prowess and ability to excell in physical sports.  They tend to hunt for all of their food.  On the other hand, humans in more advanced cultures tend to overwork, do not exercise sufficiently, sit behind a desk or are couch potatoes who watch too much TV, their diets are full of processed foods with too much fat, sugar and salt, that make us fat and put more weight on our skeletal structures, especially our spine.  The result is a series of back ailements.

Another story that I keep reading about is that extra-terrestrials are using our DNA to bolster their own dying species.  These aliens have created human-alien hybrids, with horrific stories of underground labs where these experiments are conducted.  

Whereever the answer may be or lie, human beings are genetically different from extra-terrestrial beings.  It is thought that aliens have taken an interest in humans because unlike aliens, we have a soul and are able to exist in multi-dimensional levels, but have yet to master this ability.

On the other hand, as Dr. Silver suggests in his book, perhaps we are the "castoffs" or "rejects" from other galaxies.  The "defective" human beings who can't seem to control their emotions, full of evil and greed, with war-like tendencies, and this make us too dangerous to interact with at this time.  If I were an alien and studied our species, I would wonder deep and hard why we keep hating each other and kill each other.  The 20th century had five major war, and 100 minor wars between countries, and hundreds of millions of innocent human beings were killed by fanatics.    

I know all of this sounds like mumbo-jumbo, or the ramblings of a deranged mind, but I just love to theorize where we came from, and why the aliens are here, and are unable to control us from killing ourselves.  Perhaps they prefer to have us kill ourselves, than having to do it themselves. Afterall, they are technologically superiod in every possible way, and I am sure have the means to destroy our planet, and every living thing on it, but maybe, just maybe, they these aliens have evolved beyond hate, greed, and war, and have embrace peace and love.  Something we have yet to master.

NASA'S CURIOSITY ROVER DISCOVERS A SHINY PIECE OF METAL STICKING OUT OF THE GROUND, EVIDENCE OF INTELLIGENT LIFE?

NASA's Curiosity rover finds a shiny piece of metal on Mars (Click Image To Enlarge)

The Curiosity rover on Mars has been keeping itself quite busy lately, most recently boring into Mars’ red surface in order to find signs of life. However, in its downtime, the rover likes to take a lot of photos,including self-portraits, but this time around, Curiosity came across a strange chunk of metal sticking out of the ground? What could it be?

NASA's Curiosity rover finds what appears to be a shinny pice of metal protruding from the ground on the planet Mars (Click Image To Enlarge)

The photo was snapped on January 30 using one of the rover’s MastCam cameras to get shots of the landscape, and it ended up getting this odd piece of metal in the frame. NASA’s scientists aren’t 100% sure what it is, but they think it may be a chunk from a meteorite, or possibly a chunk of ore that became exposed by some sort of erosion.

It’s said that the object is only a half-centimeter tall, so it’s extremely tiny compared to how big it looks in the image. NASA hasn’t said whether or not it will check out the piece of metal, or if they’ll just ignore it and continue on with their planned experiments. After all, they do have more holes to drill.

However, while some think it’s simply a tiny piece of metal, Elisabetta Bonora of Alive Universe Images, mentions that the hunk of metal takes up about 35 pixels in the image. Taking into account the camera’s resolution and the distance between the rover and the object, the size of the chunk of metal may actually be larger than just 0.5 cm — it’s possible that it’s up to a foot tall. At this point, we’ll never know, unless NASA decides to investigate, but it’s very possible they just might let it be and continue on as scheduled.

COMMENTARY:   If NASA's Curiosity rover has found a real piece of metal protruding from the ground, is the structure a natural piece of metal, or something left on Mars by intelligent beings? The picture was taken on January 30, 2013, so I must assume that NASA has dug out that piece of "metal" by now and analyzed it with Curiosity's onboard laboratory.  Keep tuned for more.

NASA'S GRAIL MOON GRAVITY MISSION TAKES 1ST PICS & VIDEO OF THE FAR SIDE OF THE MOON, COULD SHED LIGHT ON WHETHER E.T. LIVES ON THE MOON

Artist concept of GRAIL mission. Grail will fly twin spacecraft in tandem orbits around the moon to measure its gravity field in unprecedented detail.

A gravity-mapping spacecraft orbiting the moon has beamed home its first video of the lunar far side — a view people on Earth never see.

The new video was captured by one of NASA's twin Grail probes using a novel camera called MoonKAM, which will eventually be used by students on Earth to snap photos of the lunar surface as part of an educational project. The two spacecraft have been circling the moon since they arrived in orbit over the New Year.

Maria Zuber, Grail principal investigator from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, in a statement accompanying the video's release today said (Feb. 1).

"The quality of the video is excellent and should energize our MoonKAM students as they prepare to explore the moon."

Because the moon is tidally locked with Earth, it only presents one face to the planet's surface (the near side). The side of the moon that faces away from Earth is the far side. Only robotic spacecraft and Apollo astronauts who orbited the moon in the 1960s and 1970s have seen the far side of the moon directly. [New photo and video of the moon's far side]

The new video is about 30 seconds long and shows the far side of the moon as a stark, scarred landscape. Dozens of craters are visible in the field of view.

 

As the video begins, the vast impact basin of Mare Orientale — which is 560 miles (900 kilometers) wide and straddles the near and far sides, is clearly visible in the lower third of the frame, according to a NASA description. To the left of the middle is the Drygalski crater, a 93-mile-wide (149 kilometer) basin that stands out because of the star-shaped formation in its center.

While NASA released the lunar far side video today, it was actually recorded Jan. 19 by one of the Grail probes, which are now called Ebb and Flow. The Grail mission's name stands for Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory. Both spacecraft are equipped with their own MoonKAM (or Moon Knowledge Acquired by Middle school students) cameras.

The MoonKAM project is an effort led by former astronaut Sally Ride, the first American woman in space, to encourage student interest in science. It is the first set of cameras ever to fly on a NASA planetary probe that is completely dedicated to education and public outreach.

Under the program, thousands of students between fourth and eighth grade will be able to request targets on the moon to be photographed by the Grail probes via an operations center based in San Diego, Calif. Once the photos are taken, they will be sent to the students for further study, NASA officials said.

Ride said, adding that the first moon photos taken by students will be recorded in mid-March 

"We have had great response from schools around the country; more than 2,500 signed up to participate so far.  I expect this will excite many students about possible careers in science and engineering."

NASA launched the $496 million Grail mission in September 2011 on a tag-team mission to map the moon's gravity field like never before. The two washing machine-size spacecraft are currently lowering their orbits around the moon and will eventually begin the science phase of their mission once they reach a target altitude of just 34 miles (55 kilometers) above the lunar surface.

Grail mission scientists will use minute changes in the positions of the lunar orbiters as they fly in tandem to map variations in the moon's gravitational field.

NASA Announces Names of GRAIL Moon Gravity Mission Twin Probes

NASA's twin gravity-mapping moon probes received their names on January 17, 2012, reflecting their mission to study the changing pull of Earth's natural satellite.

Now to be called "Ebb" and "Flow," the tandem Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory (or Grail) spacecraft arrived in lunar orbit over the New Year weekend and were previously referred to simply as "A" and "B". Their new names were offered by fourth grade students in Bozeman, Mont., who were chosen as the winners of NASA's naming contest.

Maria Zuber, who as principal investigator leads the Grail probes' mission from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said.

"The 28 students of Ms. Nina DiMauro's class at Emily Dickinson Elementary School have really hit the nail on the head.  We were really impressed that the students drew their inspiration by researching Grail and its goal of measuring gravity."

Zuber said.

"Ebb and Flow truly capture the spirit and excitement of our mission."  

NASA announced the new names in a press conference on Tuesday, January 17, 2012.

Last Manned Space Mission and Landing On The Moon

Apollo 17 was the eleventh and final manned space mission in NASA's Apollo space program. Launched at 12:33 a.m. EST on December 7, 1972, with a three-member crew consisting of Commander Eugene Cernan, Command Module Pilot Ronald Evans, and Lunar Module Pilot Harrison Schmidt, Apollo 17 remains the last manned Moon landing.

 Apollo 17 lunar landing mission are: Commander, Eugene A. Cernan (seated), Command Module pilot Ronald E. Evans (standing on right), and Lunar Module pilot, Harrison H. Schmitt 

The Reason Why NASA Has Not Returned Astronauts To The Moon

It's very strange that NASA ended all manned space missions to the Moon since Apollo 17.   You would've thought by now that the U.S.  would have a permanent space colony on the Moon and we would be ferrying tourist flights to the Moon and back.  The lack of an atmosphere would make the Moon an excellent jumpoff point to other planets.  According to a few former NASA employees, there's a good reason why we've never been back to the moon.

The reason why NASA hasn't sent manned space missions to the Moon, or established bases there, is because the moon's swarming with unfriendly extraterrestrial life forms who have warned us not to land there.  It's even been alleged in NASA photographs taken by Moon orbiting satellites that massive alien bases and structures exist on the moon.   EnigmaTV produced a video titled "The Truth -- Why NASA Has Never Returned To The Moon," which sheds some light on this subject.

The Truth - Why NASA Has Never Returned To The Moon - Part 1:

 

The Truth - Why NASA Has Never Returned To The Moon - Part 2:

 

The following video is a photo compilation of the anomalies on the lunar surface including an alien spacecraft, and alledged extraterrestrial biological entity known as "Mona Lisa" found inside the alien craft, purported alien bases and ufo's leaving its surface.

 

This recent article on AOL News, Some Say Moon Photos Show Signs of Alien Life, Richard C. Hoagland, founder of The Enterprise Mission, an extensive private space research analysis website said.

"What NASA did not tell the American people is that it discovered the remains of an ancient lunar civilization, and to this day, that data and those artifacts have been withheld from the American people."

The Hollow Moon Theory or The Moon Is An Artificial Object

Another interesting theory is that the moon is hallow.  A few scientists have even suggested that the moon's an artificial object:

1. Carl Sagan, the late astrophysics and cosmologist said,  "A natural satellite cannot be a hollow object."   But meaning here that if it is hollow, it is not a natural satellite -- and therefore artificial.
2. Two members of the Soviet Academy of Science, former Soviet scientists, Mikhail Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov, have theorized that the moon is a huge, hollowed-out planetoid that was sent into orbit around our world billions of years ago. They believe that the moon was hollowed out artificially, which means that it was done by some intelligence.
3. Possibly the strongest evidence for it to be a 'hollow object' comes from the fact that when meteors strike the Moon, the latter rings like a bell. More specifically when the Apollo crew in November 20, 1969 released the lunar module, after returning to the orbiter, the module impact with the Moon caused their seismic equipment to register a continuous reverberation like a bell for more than an hour. The same effect occurred with Apollo 13's third stage which caused the Moon to ring for over three hours. So what's going on with the Moon?
   

 

NASA's GRAIL Moon Gravity Mission will measure the Moon's magnetic field.  This could shed some light on whether the moon is a solid planetary object like our Earth, a hollowed out planetary object, or an artificial hollow object.  

NASA - Some Unanswered Questions

After nearly 40 years, why is NASA returning to the Moon?  They say GRAIL's mission is to measure the Moon's magnetic field, but is it for another reason?   Will NASA release copies of all the photos taken by the GRAIL Moon Gravity Mission?  Will those photos be unaltered?  NASA has often "touched" up photos to hide anomolies located on the Moon that resemble intelligently-made towers, buildings, bridges, domes and bases of unknown origin. Will NASA release their actual magnetic field findings to the scientific community?   Is this a prelude to a major extra-terrestrial disclosure?  Will NASA use this opportunity to finally disclose the existence of alien extra-terrestrial bases on the Moon?  How would you handle this news?  The Vatican wants to know how the existence of intelligent extraterrestrial beings could affect the teachings of the Catholic Church, so in late 2010, they met with NASA scientists to discuss the subject of extraterrestrials.

HOW PROJECT ICARUS' SCIENTISTS ARE DESIGNING AN INTERSTELLAR SPACE PROBE CAPABLE OF REACHING NEARBY STARS

Project Icarus

Project Icarus is an ambitious five-year study into launching an unmanned spacecraft to an interstellar destination. Headed by the Tau Zero Foundation and the British Interplanetary Society, a non-profit group of scientists dedicated to interstellar spaceflight, Icarus is working to develop a spacecraft that can travel to a nearby star.

Icarus aims to build on the work of the celebrated Project Daedalus. Between the period 1973-1978 members of the BIS undertook a theoretical study of a flyby mission to Barnard's star 5.9 light years away.

The Project Daedalus study remains one of the most complete studies of an interstellar probe to date.  The Daedalus, a 54,000 ton two-stage vehicle was to be powered by inertial confinement fusion using electron beams to compress the D/He3 fusion capsules to ignition. It would obtain an eventual cruise velocity of 36,000km/s or 12% of light speed from over 700kN of thrust, burning at a specific impulse of 1 million seconds, reaching its destination in approximately 50 years.

 

Project Icarus' design specifications for an interstellar spacecraft are as follows:

1.	To design an unmanned probe that is capable of delivering useful scientific data about the target star, associated planetary bodies, solar environment and the interstellar medium.
2.	The spacecraft must use current or near future technology and be designed to be launched as soon as is credibly determined.
3.	The spacecraft must reach its stellar destination within as fast a time as possible, not exceeding a century and ideally much sooner.
4.	The spacecraft must be designed to allow for a variety of target stars.
5.	The spacecraft propulsion must be mainly fusion based (i.e. Daedalus).
6.	The spacecraft mission must be designed so as to allow some deceleration for increased encounter time at the destination.

The Daedlus interstellar space vehicle is to say the least HUGE.  This drawing should give you a reference point as to its scale:

Below are a few illustrations of Daedalus interstellar space vehicle including descriptions of the various components of the vehicle.

 Here's a wonderful computer animation of the Daedalus Interstellar Space Vehicle.

 

Dr. Robert Adams, study lead in the Advanced Concepts Office at the NASA Marshall  Space Flight Center and Lead Designer for the Mission Analysis and Performance Module for Project Icarus, explains the realities behind getting an interstellar spacecraft to its destination.

One critical feature of any interstellar voyage is the "mission analysis," which organizes science objectives, plots movement through space and determines abort and correction scenarios. Some refer to this effort as "trajectory analysis" or "astrodynamics" but it encompasses more than simply plotting a path through the heavens.

Complex missions, like the one the Icarus team is tackling, involve integration of multiple spacecraft stages, gravity assists around planets and stars, correctional maneuvers, and other tools of the trade.

The mission analyst must juggle all of these options to find the most efficient path to the target, while balancing the cost and risk needs of the mission.

Vast Distances, Epic Timescales

Clearly, the major challenge that one needs to overcome for any interstellar mission is the vast distances that separate the stars. Consider, for example, the nearest star system to the sun: Alpha Centauri. At 4.4 light years away, Alpha Centauri is a binary system, stars A and B revolving about a central point and a third star, Proxima Centauri, which revolves around the other two.

Using current technology, a one-way trip to the Alpha Centauri system would take approximately 75,000 years. To put this in perspective, that's about one hundred and fifty times the amount of time that has passed since Columbus discovered America.

Now let's consider how fast we'd like to get there. Ideally, a very long-duration mission should be a maximum trip time of 50 years. A young man or woman can join the mission team immediately after leaving college and still be alive and nearing the end of their career when the probe reaches its target.

Having someone carrying the torch throughout insures some continuity to the project. Because Icarus is tasked with designing an interstellar mission that would reach the target solar system in under one hundred years, this fact in itself raises yet more remarkable challenges -- specifically the creation of an organization that could endure for that length of time.

With a maximum 100 year mission time, our vehicle must achieve a velocity of roughly 0.1 c (10 percent of the speed of light) to reach even the closest stars in this time frame. This is about a thousand times faster than any craft ever built.

For convenience, let's give ourselves a maximum top speed of 0.15 c so that we can put several target star systems in play. Achieving a velocity of 15% the speed of light is daunting, but not impossible using technology we have access to today.

In future Project Icarus articles, the team will discuss various propulsion schemes in more detail. Also to come are the challenges in protecting the vehicle as it continuously slams into interstellar dust at extreme velocities. In this article, we will focus our attention on the most efficient trajectory to reach our target velocity.

Finally, we must strongly consider deceleration methods when we reach our target star, since this is one of the objectives of the Icarus mission. At 15 percent the speed of light, a spacecraft would buzz through a typical solar system in a matter of hours. A 50 year trip that culminates in less than a day's observation and acquisition of data is… unsatisfying. So if possible, we'd like to find a way to slow down the spacecraft and stay a while.

Gravitational Slingshot

There are a few tools in the bag that we pull out for any difficult space mission. Staging our vehicle allows us to cast off mass like tanks and engines when they're no longer needed. Gravity assists also allow us to gain velocity by making close passes to planets in our solar system. We take a little mission time to fly up on a planet, say Jupiter, and take on it like a NASCAR driver "slingshotting" around a competitor. This method of accelerating space vehicles has been used since 1959 when the Soviet probe Luna 3 photographed the far side of the moon.

However, our usual tricks are useful but are not sufficient to meet the challenges of the Icarus mission because of the incredible velocities we need to achieve. Here we need to bring back a very old and largely forgotten maneuver.

First described by Hermann Oberth in 1927, the two-burn escape maneuver can be very effective for this mission. Consider a spacecraft orbiting a much more massive body like the sun. Oberth described how the spacecraft could reverse its thrust, actually decelerating and slowing down, to drop closer to the massive body.

When the spacecraft reaches the closest point to the body it flips around and makes a "hard burn" to accelerate as much as possible. Calculations by the author show that such a maneuver can achieve 2-3 times the velocity possible without the maneuver. It is important to appreciate that this is very different to the famous 'gravity assist' maneuver.

Seems like getting something for free, doesn't it? And we all know that the universe is notoriously stingy with freebies. However, this maneuver does not violate any laws of physics.

Note that the fuel in the vehicle is also in orbit around the massive body. If the vehicle burns some fuel while dropping to a lower orbit, then much more propellant can be burned at the lower orbit. The propellant is then left behind in a much lower (less energetic) orbit. Oberth realized that releasing the chemical or nuclear energy of a fuel was not actually using all of the propellant's available energy. The propellant also has mechanical (kinetic and potential) energy that can be released -- thus accelerating the vehicle -- by use of his maneuver.

To Jupiter, the Sun, then the Stars

By using Oberth's maneuver around the sun, we can anticipate that a vehicle that can achieve a velocity of 5 percent the speed of light will actually blast out of the solar system at our target 15 percent the speed of light. However there are still a number of issues to be investigated.

What is the spacecraft's maximum acceleration? How close can the spacecraft actually get to the sun without suffering dire radiation and heating effects? How many stages will the vehicle need to have? And attaining 5 percent the speed of light before Oberth's maneuver is still a very challenging task. Future articles will discuss the propulsion systems that have potential to reach these velocities.

A possible mission profile using the options mentioned above would start in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) where the Icarus probe is built. Using conventional propulsion systems such as liquid (chemical) rockets, the craft begins its journey to Jupiter. The chemical rockets will be jettisoned immediately after this Trans-Jovian Injection (TJI).

Jupiter's gravity will drag the Icarus probe into a new trajectory perpendicular to the plane of the solar system. Additionally this gravity assist will shorten the Icarus orbit so that it starts falling back towards the sun. A short burst from its fusion engines will tighten the probes orbit, so that years later the probe will fly deep inside the sun's atmosphere, the solar corona.

A set of fuel tanks will be jettisoned at Jupiter after the short burst. As the probe nears this closest approach to the sun it will start firing at maximum thrust for weeks, or months. The probe will have to use some of its propulsive force to steer towards the sun as it accelerates. The probe will swing around the sun while continuing to accelerate. Multiple sets of drop tanks will be dropped along the way. The thrusting will not stop until the probe achieves the target velocity.

The probe will continue to thrust in short bursts on its long journey to the target star. These bursts will make up any drag caused by interstellar gases and dust, and to make minor course corrections as needed. As the probe approaches the target star it will conduct the Oberth maneuver in reverse, thrusting at maximum as it swings around the target star. If possible, the probe will slow sufficiently to be captured around the target star, and extend the time the probe has to study the star system.

It is not yet clear if the Icarus team will be able to find the right combination of propulsive technologies and mission options that will enable the full acceleration and deceleration at the target star. And many of the mission elements described above will be traded against numerous other options.

The Icarus team is committed to find the mission profile that will allow humanity to take those first few steps out to the stars.

COMMENTARY:    We haven't even sent astronauts to Mars yet,  but if we ever did it would take 15 to 20 years and cost the US taxpayers a whopping $500 billion, yet the scientists at the Icarus Project are thinking way beyond that--interstellar space travel.   That's what I call mox.  This is strictly theoretical, of course, but the Icarus Project folks are taking their jobs seriously.  

I like the idea of bouncing off the gravity of other planets so that the Icarus Project interstellar space probe could eventually attain a speed that is 12% the speed of light.  We have been using other planets like a "sling shot" to send NASA space probes to survey and photograph Neptune, Saturn and Uranus, plus their moons.  It's a technological marvel, but if we can travel to the farthest most planets within our solar system, I don't see why we can't accomplish interstellar space travel.

Ask me if I would volunteer for such a mission, and the answer would be a resounding "YES", provided that the interstellar spaceship was fully loaded with cases upon cases of Dos Equis beer, and a few unmentionables to keep me busy during the lenghy space journey.

FORMER APOLLO ASTRONAUT DR EDGAR MITCHELL: "THERE ARE SEVERAL SPECIES (ALIENS) VISITING OUR PLANET"

 
Leaked photos of six dead Grey aliens

In 1971, Dr Edgar Mitchell of Apollo 14 became the sixth man to walk on the Moon. His views on space , aliens and our planet are compelling and unique – hear him on this world exclusive special edition of The Unexplained.

 

Dr. Mitchell has an open mind as far as ET civilizations are concerned, and in this new interview Dr. Mitchell speaks about his fears for the short term survival of our species, saying "there is quite a bit of evidence that we are already getting help" and that, according to his sources, "there are already several species visiting our planet."

Dr. Mitchell goes on to explain his theories about Roswell and the Phoenix lights claiming that the craft were piloted by ET's that are trying to help us.

COMMENTARY:  Incredible.  I have a feeling that something significant is about to happen, and that proof the existence of these extra-terrestrial visitors is going to break anytime.   The videos showing UFO's, including purported aliens, are getting more real every day.  Many civilians have digital video and photo cameras.  

Speaking for myself, I have always believed in the existence of UFO's and extra-terrestrial visitors, and my biggest concern is whether these visitors are friendly or evil.   It's my understanding that some are friendly, other's not so friendly, and that we may even be at war with some species of these visitors.  

What amazes me is that our government has refused to confirm their existence for at least 60 years, and supposedly goes out of its way to refute and discredit those who talk about their existence.  Dr. Mitchell speaks about his "fears for the short term survival of our species", but that we are "getting help".  These visitors are much more advanced than us, and may know of coming events that could endanger human life as we know it.  Scary stuff.

Here's a very eye-pening video of Dr. Edgar Mitchel's speech at the UFO Disclosure Conference, held at the National Press Club, Washington, D.C. on April 24, 2009:

 

Dan Willis, a Top Secret military winess also spoke at the conference.  Here are video's #1: 

 

Dan Willis video #2:

  

Here's the full video of the UFO Disclosure Conference held at the National Press Club, Washington, D.C. on April 29, 2009.   This includes the the incredible testimony of Dr. William Greer, an advisor to the U.S. and foreign government concerning UFO's and extra-terrestrial lifeforms.

 

Dr. Greer claims that the U.S. has developed anti-gravity technologies learned from UFOs that crashed on earth in the past, whose propulsion technologies we reverse engineered.   What is most shocking is that Dr. Greer claims that the U.S. has developed technologies that would solve our energy crisis.  He claims that our government is spending $80 billion a year on so-called "black" and highly classified technologies.       

Finally, I highly recommend that you read the Disclosure Project Briefing Document prepared by Dr. Steen Greer and Theodore C. Loder III PhD on April 2001 and provided to members of the media and everyone attending the Disclosure Project 2001 meeting at the Nation Press Club in Washington, D.C.   Section 3.0 Disclosure Overview gives you a broad overview. A few key facts presented in the Disclosure Project Briefing Document are as follows:

"The evidence and testimony presented in the following pages establishes the following: 

•  
  • That we are indeed being visited by advanced extraterrestrial civilizations and have been for some time;
  • That this is the most classified, compartmented program within the US and many other countries;
  • That those projects have, as warned in 1961 by President Eisenhower, escaped legal oversight and control in the US, the UK and elsewhere;
  • That advanced spacecraft of extraterrestrial origin, called extraterrestrial vehicles (ETVs) by some intelligence agencies, have been downed, retrieved and studied since at least the 1940s and possibly as early as the 1930s;
  • That significant technological breakthroughs in energy generation and propulsion have resulted from the study of these objects (and from related human innovations dating as far back as the time of Nicola Tesla) and that these technologies utilize a new physics not requiring the burning of fossil fuels or ionizing radiating to generate vast amounts of energy;
  • That classified, above top-secret projects possess fully operational anti-gravity propulsion devices and new energy generation systems that, if declassified and put to peaceful uses, would empower a new human civilization without want, poverty or environmental damage.

Those who doubt these assertions should carefully read the testimony of dozens of military and government witnesses whose testimony clearly establishes these facts. Given the vast and profound implications of these statements, whether one accepts or seriously doubts these assertions, all must demand that congressional hearings be convened to get to the truth of this matter. For nothing less that the human future hangs in the balance."

I know that many of you will never be convinced of the existence of UFO's or highly advanced extra-terrestrial beings visiting planet Earth, or the existence of a huge cover-up by the U.S. government that began with the Truman and Eisenhower administrations. This cover-up and also includes foreign governments and some of the most wealthy and influential individuals and most powerful corporations in the world.  

Some of you want to touch E.T. up close and personal, and nothing else would convince you. This is not going to happen.  Imagine you introducing yourself to an insect.  Many of you simply do not get it, and that's unfortunate.  All that I ask is that you open your eyes, ears and mind to the overwhelming testimony given by so many well known and respected individuals in the Disclosure Project 2001. The Disclosure Project 2001 could not have been orchestrated.  This was for real, and it happened in 2001.  The government and military individuals who testified at the Disclosure Project 2001 meeting  knew that once they stepped forward and gave their testimony, they would be labeled crazy lunatics.

UFOLOGIST JAIME MAUSSAN CALLS THE 'JERUSALEM UFO' THAT APPEARED OVER THE DOME OF THE ROCK "100% REAL!!"

 

Jaime Maussan, a well known ufologist, investigative journalist and Mexican television personality, who resides in Mexico and attends the International UFO conferences investigated, analyzed the three previous videos of the UFO (Jerusalem UFO) that appeared over the Dome of The Rock in Jerusalem on the night of January 28, 2011,  and the images taken from a security camera that takes pictures every ten minutes.   Mr. Maussan interviewed the three individuals who took the original three Jerusalem UFO videos.

 

Mr. Maussan also recorded a video of Eligael Gedalyovich, who took the original video of the Jerusalem UFO.   Eligael was accompanied by a friend who took the second video of the Jerusalem UFO using a smartphone camera.   

The third Jerusalem UFO video (the one at the very top) was captured by Michael Cohen who was going out with friends on that historic night. You can also find the complete YouTube video of their outting here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D-_gWaxhlY.

There had also been many reports on news, and many testimonies from eyewitnesses, including from an Israeli policeman. Also note that the two groups of people have nothing to do with each other (according to J. Maussan investigations) and no link with any acting school.

Mr. Maussan calls the Jerusalem UFO authetic and historic because it occurred over the Dome of The Rock in Jerusalem, one of the holiest places for Jews, Christians and Moslems.  

Here's a video of Jaime Maussan's appearance at the X-Conference 2007:

 

NOTE:  The X-Conference 2007 was recorded in 12 parts if you would like to see the entire series you will find them all on YouTube.   The videos include numerous UFO sightings recorded in Mexico, Chile, Japan and other countries.  They are incredible videos.

If you were a witness to the Jerusalem UFO, or know someone who was, please have them post a comment.

FORMER CANADIAN DEFENSE MINISTER: U.S. DELIBERATELY HIDING THE TRUTH ABOUT UFO'S AND ET'S, SPENDS TRILLIONS ON BLACK PROJECTS

 

If a previous minister of national defense of a big country started talking publicly about his belief that some UFOs are interplanetary vehicles carrying visitors to Earth, would you believe him or not?

Well, stepping up to the plate is the Honorable Paul Hellyer, a former deputy prime minister of Canada and the longest serving current member -- ahead of Prince Philip -- of the Queen's Privy Council, which is made up of "prominent Canadians appointed to advise the queen on issues of importance to the country."

 

In the above video recorded on April 2008 at X-Conference at the National Press Club, Washington, D.C., former Canadian Defense Minister Paul Hellyer, exposes the truth about a deliberate U.S. government cover-up of the existence of UFO's & extra-terrestrial beings.

As Canadian minister of national defense in 1963, Hellyer was responsible for integrating and unifying the Royal Canadian army, navy and air force into a single organization, the Canadian Armed Forces.

And yes, he is extremely outspoken about UFOs and alien visitors to Earth.

Hellyer told AOL News.

"Oh, I'm absolutely convinced of it. These things were not invented here. And I think people have to get accustomed to this new reality.  We lived too long in a sense of isolation, thinking that Earth was the center of the cosmos, that we were the only species and, therefore, probably the most advanced. And when we come to the realization that we're not any of those things, then I think we should be aware of it, learn to live with it and certainly try to take advantage of anything that we can learn from visitors from anywhere."

Hellyer, 87, is also known for his activities involving world issues, including monetary reform, the Middle East and environmental concerns.

This week, he's presenting his views on UFOs at the International UFO Congress in Scottsdale, Ariz.

When Hellyer was Canada's minister of national defense, he says he never discussed UFOs with other high-ranking officials.

"I got periodic reports on sightings and I looked at them very casually, and it was decided that about 80 percent of them were natural phenomena of one sort or another, and the other 20 percent roughly were unexplained, and therefore unidentified.  You know, this is the kind of thing that sometimes they don't tell politicians about, and I have no doubt that there were probably people in my employ who would have been more knowledgeable than I was at the time."

While spending last Thanksgiving north of Toronto, Hellyer and his wife spotted an unidentified flying object and recount what they saw.

"The two of us stood there transfixed for 20 minutes, looking up at this thing moving first in one direction, and then another. By process of elimination, we determined it wasn't a star or satellite and it wasn't the space station, so there was really no explanation for it other than it was, in fact, a UFO."

Hellyer's analytical mind raced as fast as the object he was looking at.

"It looked like a star, but it maneuvered in a way that stars don't. I must admit that when I saw this one, I wondered whether it was extraterrestrial or American. And I guess the thought that occurred to me was that if it is American, then they have learned some pretty big secrets about acceleration, because it accelerated at a pace that nothing I've ever known about that was built here is capable of."

Trusted political and scientific sources whom Hellyer has talked to have suggested that the United States has developed new forms of energy at top-secret "black operation" installations, using reportedly extraterrestrial technology.

In his book "Light at the End of the Tunnel: A Survival Plan for the Human Species" (AuthorHouse), Hellyer claims that an American "shadow government" is behind this activity.

Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences said.

"That is my belief. I do not have proof of that, but I believe that they have developed energy sources, and publicly I'm saying that if they do not exist in commercial form, that extraterrestrials would certainly give us that information if we would ask them for it and stop shooting at them. Paul Hellyer's story is an important contribution to the literature of modern Western civilization. His experience in government, his interest in exopolitics and the issues of sustainability of civilization are significant areas of current discourse." 

 

In the above video, Apollo 14 astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, spoke at the Disclosure Conference held at the National Press Club, Washington, D.C.  Dr. Mitchell talks about what he knows about the Roswell UFO incident and existence of UFO's and extra-terrestrial lifeforms.  There are two parts to the video.

While Hellyer believes -- as many people do -- in an ongoing cover-up of UFO information, there are those of equal or higher credentials who say otherwise. Case in point: retired Army Col. John Alexander -- another speaker at this week's International UFO Congress -- who acknowledges the reality of UFOs but says there has never been a cover-up of the facts and that UFO disclosure has already taken place over many decades.

 

In the above video uncovered by Grant Cameron & Neil Gould  of former U.S. President Bill Clinton'a speech held at the Expolitics Conference on September 14, 2005, the former President answers questions regarding UFO's, Roswell and Area 51. 

On the topic of disclosure of all facts relating to UFOs, Hellyer is pretty adamant.

"Basically, I'm a full-disclosure person. People keep talking about transparency and still not telling the truth, and this applies in various other areas as well as UFOs, and it's just about time that we started getting open with each other and trying to get along and live together."

If Hellyer was Canada's minister of defense today, would he be as up-front with his UFO beliefs?

He replied.

"I would probably be open-mouthed about it and I might get fired for it.  I've always been pretty open and direct, so unless there was some reason which I can't conceive of, I wouldn't try to hide the existence of the extraterrestrials and their presence."

COMMENTARY:   I suppose it's possible to have a wacked out, mental retard working at the highest levels of government.  Hell yes, it is possible.  We had George Bush running the U.S. government for eight years.  He claimed he was in contact with God.  Richard Nixon's suspicions of others bordered on lunacy.  He even kept an "Enemy's List" and secretly recorded telephone conversations which eventually got him impeached.   Lyndon Johnson did the same thing.  Many of those recorded telephone conversations are finally being disclosed.

However, even at 87 years of age,  I find Paul Hellyer quite sane, intelligent, frank, honest and very serious when he says that the U.S. has been deliberately covering up the truth about the existence of UFO's and extra-terrestrials for decades.  What's even more astounding is that former Presidents, cabinet members, senator's and congressmen are completely "out-of-the-loop" about what the government knows about UFO's and extra-terrestrial beings and we are spending on so-called "black" projects.  Everything is on a need to know basis.  Sounds like a familiar story doesn't it?  

In a blog post March 1, 2011, one of my earliest on the subject of UFO's and extraterrestrials, I profiled Paul Hellyer, who claimed that the U.S. is deliberately hiding the truth about the existence of UFO's and extraterrestrials, has back-engineered UFO craft and energy propulsion systems, and U.S. scientists and military personnel are coooperating with and working along side one or more species of extra-terrestrials to developed advanced weapons and other technologies that could provide mankind unlimited free energy sources and eliminate the damage to our environment from greenhouse gases from fossil fuels. 

The year 2011 will be referred to as "The Year of the UFO", due to the sheer number of UFO sightings and number of witnesses to these sightings, including NASA astronauts, military and commercial pilots, military personnel, and even a few politicians, have reached epidemic proportions.  The Mutual UFO Network or MUFON, which tracks and keeps accurate records of UFO sighting repots, reported that over 1,000 UFO sightings were reported in the month of August 2011.  This is twice the usual number of 500. 

In the old days you would see a lone UFO, typically saucer-shaped, and just a few witnesses to the sighting.  Today, we are seeing fleets of UFO's some of them numbering in dozens, and sometimes accompanied by a larger UFO which is often been referred to as "The Mothership".   Sightings have been reported everywhere, and witnesses to an individual sighting can number in the hundreds and even thousands. Witnesses have sighted UFO's in just about every continent, and some recognizable patterns  are beginning to develop:

• Commonly sighted UFO's appear to have a noticeable bright halo around their saucer-shaped perimeter.  (Search YouTube under London UFO's, Mexico City UFO's, Hawaii UFO's, Fukushima UFO's, Chile UFO's, among just a few).  
• When UFO's appear at night, witnesses say they appear as a very bright star.  The "Jerusalem UFO" is an excellent example.  It was recorded by several different witnesses and videos are on YouTube and have been seen by thousands. 
• They fly at lower altitudes where they are clearly visible by the human eye.
• They fly at high speeds, sometimes nearing 4,000 mph and often make crazy 90 degree turns that a regular military pilot could not perform. 
• A jumbo-sized "Mothership" often accompanies a group of UFO's.
• They fly in waves or even formations of 3-5 UFO's, sometimes forming patterns like triangles.  It is rare to see just one UFO. 
• Some UFO's have been known to hover over an area for several seconds to as long as 10-20 minutes.
• They are appearing over large metropolitan areas, in broad daylight, and in greater frequency is if they purposely want to be seen.

The media has become more active in covering UFO sightings.  The Jersualem UFO has caught worldwide media attention because it appeared over the Dome of the Rock, one of the holiest spots for Jews, Christians and Muslims in the world.   Some individuals are claiming it has a religious significance, but what that may be, remains to be seen.

-

Everyday more highly creditable individuals are coming forward, many of them claiming they have seen UFO's and/or extra-terrestrials, and accusing the U.S. government of deliberately hiding the truth about UFO's and extra-terrestrials.  Individuals within the government with inside knowledge of UFO's and extra-terrestrials claim that the truth is being withheld because it would cause panic.   

 

Several nations (The U.K., Mexico, Belgium, The Netherlands, and several South American nations) have already began the serious process of releasing their classified records of UFO sightings and reports of extra-terrestrials.  When government officials like Mr. Hellyer step forward, then you know its time our government came clean.

ELEVEN SUPER-SECRET, DANGEROUS OR UNUSUAL U.S. MILITARY BASES AND OUTPOSTS YOU NEVER KNEW EXISTED

Thule Air Base

Qaasuitsup, Greenland: 

Background: Thule Air Base sits within 800 miles of the Arctic Circle, making it the northernmost U.S. military installation. Among the many challenges posed by the region's climate is that the base's port is only accessible for three months each year, so major supplies need to be shipped during the summer. The base may be frozen and remote, but the 12th Space Warning Squadron operates an early warning system for Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles from Thule, while the 21st Space Wing is in charge of space surveillance operations. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: Brad Schulz, vice president of federal architecture at HNTB, who recently worked on a dormitory replacement project at Thule, explains that construction crews essentially need to build on the most stable layer of permafrost they can get to. With temperatures dropping below minus-60 F, keeping troops warm is crucial. One of the more interesting weather-specific features is that all of the utilities are above ground, because it would be too hard to quickly access them if something went awry. "You don't bury any waterlines, communication lines or even sanitary lines," Schulz says. "They're all insulated and triple-heat-taped." Schulz also notes that all the buildings on the base are equipped with so-called arctic vestibules, which provide 24/7 access to shelter while ensuring the buildings remain secure.

Dugway Proving Ground

Great Salt Lake Desert, Utah: 

Background: Within two months of the attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt set aside the first 127,000 acres of Dugway Proving Ground in Utah's Great Salt Lake Desert. Over the past 60 years, the site has expanded to nearly 800,000 acres, roughly the size of Rhode Island. Geographically, Dugway is located in the eastern Great Basin desert region of the American West. The mean elevation is 4,350 feet above sea level. Dugway sits under a huge invisible container of protected airspace known as the Utah Test and Training Range, controlled by the U.S. Air Force. Military Flight Operations in this area are very frequent. NASA has also used the combined air/land space for critical recovery operations of its Genesis and Stardust Mission Craft. The nearest major national-scale city is Salt Lake City, Utah, 85 miles northeast. 

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: Dugway's massiveness allows it to be the premiere site for testing defense systems against chemical and biological weapons, as well as military-grade smoke bombs. During World War II, the facility played a vital role in the development of incendiary bombs. In order to test the fire-causing weapons, crews at Dugway built replicas of German and Japanese villages, even going so far as to fill the model buildings with furniture that would be similar to that found in the respective country. Today, the remains of the German village are eligible to be included on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

Navy Support Facility Diego Garcia

Diego Garcia BIOT, Chagos Archipelago: 

Background: This joint U.S. and U.K. operation is situated on a tiny atoll about 1000 miles from India and tasked with providing logistical support to forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: "There's a certain amount of logistical difficulty" with ultra-remote facilities like Diego Garcia, Schulz says, and shipping materials can be costly. Diego Garcia's remoteness, though, allows it to be a key hub for tracking satellites, and it is one of five monitoring stations for GPS. Additionally, the island is one of only a handful of locations equipped with a Ground-based Electro-Optical Deep Space Surveillance system for tracking objects in deep space. As an atoll, the land itself is rather oddly shaped, too. From end to end, Diego Garcia is 34 miles long, but its total area is only 11 square miles.

HAARP Research Station

Gakona, Alaska: 

Background: HAARP, or the High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, is a collaborative project involving the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Army and the University of Alaska. Researchers at the facility use a powerful high-frequency transmitter and an array of 180 antennas to temporarily disrupt the ionosphere in hopes of yielding potential communications and surveillance benefits. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: HAARP has been the centerpiece of countless conspiracy theories, ranging from rumors that it will be used for mind control to claims that it can manipulate the weather of individual countries. The project's website says that the equipment can only function properly if it is located in the auroral region, and Alaska happens to be the only U.S. state that fits that criterion. A quiet electromagnetic location is needed for the system to operate, which further explains the removed location of HAARP. In past interviews, HAARP's operators readily admit they're researching potential defense applications.

Cheyenne Mountain Complex (NORAD)

Cheyenne Mountain Complex Air Force Station, Colo.: 

Background: This iconic underground base has been inspiring science fiction writers and awing engineers since 1966. Located nearly a half mile under a granite mountain, the labyrinthine facility is run by Air Force Space Command. The base earned its place in pop culture when the television version of Stargatemade Cheyenne Mountain the HQ of cosmic time travel. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: One-of-a-kind bases like Cheyenne pose countless construction challenges and need to satisfy seemingly impossible requirements, like being able to withstand multi-megaton attacks. "It would be hard for a contractor to bid a project like this, because you might be using new construction techniques, new construction technology," Schulz says. Aside from sitting under a mountain of granite, an extremely hard rock, the base is protected by 25-ton blast doors, and some rooms sit on massive beds of springs to better absorb a blast. "It's certainly not a very secret installation, but it's well-protected."

Joint Defence Space Research Facility Pine Gap

Lingiari, Australia: 

Background: Near the hot, desolate center of Australia, just outside of Alice Springs, is the Joint Defence Space Research Facility Pine Gap. Australia and the U.S. agreed to build the compound in 1966, but desert flooding, blistering heat and a lack of paved roads slowed initial construction efforts. The site officially opened in June 1970 and has been a joint U.S./Australian operation since. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: Pine Gap's collection of eight or so radomes and its remote location have sparked many UFO-related rumors, both in Australia and abroad. The main function of Pine Gap is to monitor any missile activity in the region and relay intelligence to U.S. and Australian forces. Schulz points out there are certain military installations, like Pine Gap or HAARP, that can only operate effectively in certain geographical areas. "Even though they're in terrible environments, some portion of that land is strategically important," he says. In 2009, the Australian Department of Defence announced plans to upgrade antiquated equipment at the facility, indicating that Pine Gap has a long future ahead of it.

U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID)

Fort Detrick, Md.: 

Background: Anthrax, Ebola virus, plague and monkeypox are just a few of the deadly microbes handled by researchers at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, commonly known as USAMRIID. Over the years, the institute has made significant contributions to the development of vaccines, diagnostics and treatments that have both military and civilian applications. 

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: USAMRIID is the only Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) laboratory under the purview of the Department of Defense. Facilities like these are all about redundancies, Shulz says, and the safety requirements needed for BSL-4 certification are extensive and complex. A few of the more notable precautions include double-door airlocks, sophisticated filtration systems capable of catching microscopic particles, fumigation chambers and a completely air-tight building. According to the National Institutes of Health, many of the BSL-4 facilities build buffer corridors around the laboratories to help mitigate damage from any potential blasts.

 

The USAMRIID campus hosts researchers from a variety of agencies, including the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), the National Biodefense Analysis and Countermeasures Center (NBACC), and the National Institute of Health’s (NIH) National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID), which conduct research in Biosafety level  3 and 4 laboratories.  Such laboratories are required to work with dangerous pathogens, such as Bacillus anthracis (anthrax) and Ebolavirus sp (Ebola).

Raven Rock Mountain Complex

Adams Country, PA: 

Background: This notoriously cryptic facility is built under Raven Rock mountain near the border of Pennsylvania and Maryland. The site was birthed during the Cold War and goes by many names, including Site R and the underground Pentagon. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: Raven Rock Mountain Complex (RRMC) is a underground continuity of government facility built by the U.S. government in the early 1950s. It is located about 14 km (8.7 miles) east of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, and 10 km (6.2 miles) north-northeast of Camp David, Maryland. It is also called the Raven Rock Military Complex, or simply Site R. Other designations and nicknames include “The Rock”, NMCC-R (National Military Command Center Reservation), ANMCC (Alternate National Military Command Center), AJCC (Alternate Joint Communications Center), “Backup Pentagon”, or “Site RT”; the latter refers to the vast array of communication towers and equipment atop the mountain. Colloquially, the facility is known as an “underground Pentagon”. 

Lajes Field

Azores, Portugal: 

Background: Lajes Field, on the small, Portuguese-owned Terceira Island, is an important refueling station for aircraft that can't clear the Atlantic Ocean in a single shot. In 1953, the U.S. established its first presence on the island when it positioned the 1605th Air Base Wing at Lajes. Today, the 65th Air Base Wing is stationed at the facility, providing support to U.S. Air Forces in Europe and to a variety of allies. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: Lajes Field is on a small chunk of volcanic rock about 1000 miles off the coast of Portugal, a location that can be stressful for first-time navigators. About 11 miles long from north to south, the island is not capable of supporting more than one airport, so the field is split between civilian operations and military operations. "All the military support facilities line one side of the runway, and the passenger terminal, if you will, is very small on the other side," Schulz says.

Anniston Chemical Agent Disposal Facility

Anniston Army Depot, Alabama: 

Background: The U.S. Army Chemical Materials Agency's Anniston Chemical Agent Disposal Facility is one of six locations that stores chemical weapons. During the 1960s, 7 percent of U.S. chemical weapons were stashed at Anniston, including stockpiles of VX nerve-agent munitions. The Anniston Chemical Agent Disposal Facility, currently under construction, is located 50 miles east of Birmingham, Alabama, and eight miles west of Anniston. The stockpile at Anniston is maintained on 762 acres in the northeastern portion of the Anniston Army Depot, and holds 2,254 tons, or 7.4 percent of the original US stockpile of chemical weapons. Anniston's stockpile consists of cartridges, projectiles, ton containers, rockets and mines containing the nerve agents GB and VX, and the blister agent HB, more commonly referred to as or mustard agent.

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

List of Chemical Weapons stored at Anistan Chemical Weapons Disposal Facility

How It's Unique: Operations at Anniston have shifted from storing chemical weapons to safely destroying and disposing of them. Mustard-gas-filled munitions can't just be chucked in the garbage or buried, so the facility is equipped with high-tech robotics that disassemble weapons and powerful incinerators that help destroy certain waste materials. Workers at the site have recently started using a Linear Projectile Mortar Disassembly machine—a six-axis, remote-controlled robot—to extract the explosives from mortars filled with chemical agents.

Naval Submarine Base

Kings Bay, Georgia: 

Background: Around 1980, the Navy began overhauling Kings Bay to be the East Coast location for Ohio-class nuclear submarines, a project that took nearly a decade and cost $1.3 billion, making it the largest peacetime construction project for the Navy at the time. Spread over 16,000 acres, about a quarter of which is protected wetlands, this submarine base is the habitat of 20 threatened or endangered species. 

Click Image To Enlarge

Click Image To Enlarge

How It's Unique: When a submarine needs a little TLC, there's not a better place than the Trident Refit Facility at Kings Bay. The 700-foot-long covered drydock, one of the largest in the world, is impressive, but what really stands out is the state of the art Magnetic Silencing Facility. The entrance of the silencing facility is designed as a drive-in, like a Jiffy Lube for Naval vessels. After a sub is in place, it is subjected to a deperming treatment, which basically erases the sub's magnetic signature, allowing it to remain as stealthy as possible during future voyages.

COMMENTARY:     I wanted to add one final military facility that is glaringly missing from the above list.   This is the military facility known as Area 51 (see below) a.k.a Groom Lake and Dreamland.   If you ask the U.S. government about Area 51, they will tell you that it does not exist.  

Click Image To Enlarge

Fifteen miles south of Area 51 is S-4, a super-secret facility located at the base of the Papoose Mountains adjacent to the Papoose dry lakebed.  Individuals with authorized access to  S-4 are flown from Las Vegas to Area 51, then transported by bus over a dirt road to S-4.  The windows of the bus are deliberately blackened so that passengers are unable to see the route to S-4.

The airspace over Area 51 and S-4 is highly restricted, and any pilot or aircraft that accidentally or intentionally strays into sector R 4808 N is subject to pursuit by Air Force jets scrambled for intercept, or subject to outright destruction by surface-to-air missiles.

Sector R 4808 N houses Area 51 and S-4 and is completely offlimits to all unauthorized air traffic

The S-4 installation is built into the mountain, and there are nine hanger doors that are angled at about 90 degrees to match the hillside.  These doors are covered with a sand-textured coating to blend-in with the sides of the mountain, amid the desert floor.   

According to several S-4 informants, including Conner O'Ryan, Bob Dean, Phil Schneider (btw, the powers that be within the U.S. government probably arranged to have Phil Schnider murdered in 1996 for divulging the existence of S-4), and Bob Lazar,  S-4 houses several recovered extra-terrestrial spacecraft that either crashed or were shot down.

Below are some aerial images of an underground facility located at Area 51/S-4 taken by Google Earth.

DRACO REPTILIAN ET'S: TYPES, BEHAVIORS, THEIR PLANS, THEIR DIET, ORIGIN, SOME FAMOUS DRACOS YOU MIGHT KNOW

 

Warrior Caste Reptilian

Types of Draco Reptilians

There are two main types of Draco Reptilian:

• Kayaka
• Warrior Caste.  

The Warrior Caste Draco pictured above, is a seven-to-eight foot bipod, and is feared throughout the Galaxy for its fighting ability.  It has vertically set pupils and has skin similiar to that found on the stomach of a lizard.  

The Kayaka Draco is considered to be the royal line of the Draco Repitilian race, and range from   14-to-22 feet in height, and can weigh up to 1,800 lbs.  They have winged appendages and are described as awesome, and look remarkedly like a dragon.

 

Dracos are not seen as often as other reptilian aliens. They are similar in appearance to the Indigenous Reptilian, but do have distinct physical differences. The Draco has wings whereas the indigenous reptilian does not.  The wings consist of long, thin and boney spimes or ribs that protrude out of the back.  The ribs are adjoined by flaps of leathery dark skin.   Normally wings are kept in a retractive position.  

 

Another physical difference to the Indigenous Reptilian, is that some Draco's have horns.  They are located and developed midway between the brow and the top of the skull.  Horns are conical in shape and have blunt tips.  The Draco Reptilian has a much more athletic build than other reptilian beings.  Their upper torso's are extremely lean, and their neck muscles flay out from the base of their jaw to their shoulder blades.  

How do they behave?

They are extremely intelligent, clairvoyant, and can be very sinister.   According to the Draconian world view, they were the first intelligent species in the galaxy and seeded my galaxies with their biological offspring.  They therefore see themselves as the natural rulers of all reptilian-controlled worlds such as the earth, and view humans as an inferior species.

What are they up to?

These aliens are in command of the earth-based reptilians.  The earth-based reptilians are in turn in command of the large greys who are in command of the small greys.  They draco's are interested in harvesting the earth's resources, and insuring that these resources are efficiently exploited.  It is rumored that the Draco reptilian species are involv ed in controlling human beings who hold high office and therefore, controlling institutions and financial systems.  

What do they eat?

Their diet is similar to the Indigenous Reptilians which includes lots of fresh raw meat.  

Where do they come from? 

The Draco Reptilians originate from a planet which orbits Alpha Draconis which is is between Ursa Major and Ursa Minor.  It is viewable in the northern evening sky between north and northwest and is 215 light-years from Earth.

Would you invite one to meet your mother?

No.  the Kayaka type would not fit inside of your house, the Warrior Caste has the strength of ten men and could kill you in the blink of an eye. 

Draco Reptilians often tale human form, and now occupy important positions in private industry, sports, government and military.  Here are a few Draco Reptilians you may be know.

Anderson Silva, UFC MMA Champion is a Kayaka Draco Reptilian

Actor Brad Pitt is a Warrior Caste Draco Reptilian and so is his wife Angelina Jolie

Vice-President Dick Cheney was the real U.S. President, and yes, he was a Kayaka Draco Reptilian

That's right, Donald Trump is a Draco Reptilian too!!

Queen Elizabeth is a Draco Reptilian as are all the Royals, with the exception of Princess Diana

That's right, Steve Jobs is a Draco Reptilian, and every single magical device Apple ever created was based on Draco technology. All of his designers are Draco Reptilians too.  New CEO Tim Cook is also Draco Reptilian, as if you hadn't guessed.

The above, are but a few Draco Reptilians that have infiltrated the human race.  They are the rich and powerful, and commonly referrerd to as the Illuminati.

Some of you may have read that the Andromeda Council, consisting of humans from the planet Earth and aliens friendly to us, defeated the Draco Reptilians in a war that lasted nearly seven years. It's a BIG LIE.  You don't really believe that the U.S., which has been unable to win the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, would defeat a race of aliens as powerful and technologically advanced as the Draco's would you?  I didn't think so.  

 

'OBJECT' FOUND BURIED UNDER ANTARCTIC ICE CAP, COULD BE OF ALIEN ORIGIN AND CAUSE OF TIME VORTEX, FEDS DENY EVERYTHING

 

Disturbing news has been leaking out from the giant continent at the bottom of the world. Some scientists manning lonely outposts under the drifting and shifting aurora are nearly paralyzed with fear. Their clipped reports are being reviewed by astonished superiors back in the home countries.

Russian researchers posted near the giant South Pole sub-glacial Lake Vostok have reported eerie anomalies and incidents over the past few years that sometimes seem to border on the frayed edge of creeping madness. 

Sector of erupting anomalies

Artificial structure found under two miles of ice

During April 2001 one of the world's great secrets was revealed:  an ancient structure or apparatus that lay encased miles under the hard Antarctic ice was detected by a roving spy satellite. The US military immediately moved to quash the reports and the mainstream news media dutifully complied.

Despite the news blackout, reports still surfaced that a secretive excavation project had commenced on the heels of the discovery. Some European countries formally protested the excavation by the US military.

Excavation deep into the ice...What's down there?

Nicole Fontaine, at the time he was the European Parliament's French president said,

"If it's something the US military has constructed down there, then they're violating the international Antarctic Treaty.  If not, then it's something that's at least 12,000 years old, which is how long ice has covered Antarctica. That would make it the oldest man-made structure on the planet. The Pentagon should heed the calls of Congress and release whatever it's hiding."

The federal government and the Pentagon ignored the calls.

High technology and strange events

US Air Force's incredible Subterrene giant earth borer.

Soon after, some military observers noted that robotic devices were being shipped to the South Pole and speculation erupted about the belief by some that the US Air Force had transported their mammoth nuclear-powered tunel boring machine, the Subterrene, on a C5-A to a secret Antarctic base.

The Subterrene--a cylindrical vessel that is said manned with a crew of four to six--is capable of subterranean travel and has undergone tests in Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico. Designed to bore through hard rock strata, drilling into the ice would be like a laser cutting through a marshmallow.

Earth borer: like a laser cutting through a marshmallow.

Following the frenzied events, of early 2001, the news broke of a mysterious medical emergency that forced an evacuation of unnamed personnel during the depths of the Antarctic winter--the first event of its kind during the dangerous South Pole winter season.  

Shortly after that the region was shaken by an unusual earthquake. Seismologists located the temblor at the epicenter of the buried structure in East Antarctica.

Yet still the military resisted making any comment.

A magnetic anomaly formed, intensified, and spread to the vicinity of the Russian Vostok base. Russian researchers were shocked and puzzled.

Meanwhile, the American military airfield buzzed with activity as flights came and went at a dizzying pace. Heavy machinery--some pretty exotic--appeared on the bleak Antarctic ice sheet. Unverified reports claimed that the nuclear-powered earth borer Subterrene arrived.

Subterrene sent to explore prehistoric machine?

 

Finally, the American and European media were pressing hard for some believable answers when 9-11 occured and the US was suddenly under terrorist attack. Domestic and international focus immediately shifted from the Antarctic to New York City and Washington, D.C.

The mysterious events in Antarctica were forgotten.

2002: TV crew disappears

A California TV crew filming in the Antarctic went missing in November 2002.

Supposedly, a video discovered among the crews' personal effects by a special U.S. Navy SEAL rescue team tasked to find the filmmakers confirmed earlier reports of a huge artifact buried under the ice--a prehistoric machine that may be of alien origin.

"The U.S. government said it will seek to block the airing of a video found by Navy rescuers in Antarctica that purportedly reveals that a massive archaeological dig is underway two miles beneath the ice," stated a press release that appeared briefly on the studio production's website.

Time vortex erupts

As one bizarre event followed another, a research team of US and UK scientists accidentally came across a mind-numbing discovery. While working on a joint weather research project, the team witnessed the creation of a spinning vortex of time.

US physicist Mariann McLein allegedly testified that she and her colleagues became aware of a "spinning gray fog" in the sky over their heads. They initially dismissed the phenomenon as merely part of a random polar storm.

The spiraling vortex, however, did not disperse. Stranger still, despite gusts of wind and briskly moving clouds overhead, the weird spinning gray fog remained stationary.

Intense magnetic anomaly.

Deciding to explore the odd phenomenon, the group took one of its weather balloons and attached a meteorological instrument to it that calibrated temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, windspeed and a scientific chronometer to record the times of the readings.

After attaching a cable to the balloon, and securing the other end to a winch, they released it. The balloon and instrument package soared upwards and were immediately sucked into the gaping maw of the swirling vortex.

The balloon and instruments disappeared.

Tunnel to the past

After a several minutes, they decided to retrieve the balloon. Despite some difficulty with the winch they succeeded in bringing the balloon back to earth and checked the instruments. McLein stated that everyone was stunned by the readout on the chronometer. It displayed a date decades in the past: January 27, 1965.

McLein claimed the experiment was repeated several times with the same result.

Later, she said, the entire episode was reported to military intelligence and passed on to the White House. Presumably the strange vortex phenomenon--a highly magnetic tunnel to the past--was code named The Time Gate by military intelligence.  

Magnetic time tunnel to the past?

As the phenomenon was generated in the same general vicinity as the discovery of the giant apparatus deep under the ice, it's thought the two may be related.

If indeed a magnetic time vortex is appearing and disappearing over Antarctica--and if the phenomena is not natural, but generated by some unknown technology deep under the icecap--it may reveal the physics of time and could potentially allow control of the past, and by implication the future.

If true, it's no wonder the military is so intensely interested and so closed-mouthed about it.

COMMENTARY:   The part that opened my eyes is the Freedom of Information Act release titled "Use Of The Subterrene For Military Drilling Applications" dated October 1974.

According to the release, the idea for the Subterrene earth boring machine, originated as part of the U.S. Army Engineer Wasterways Experiment Station (USAEWES) Explosive Excavation Research Laboratory (EERL) government program which evolved from the organization originally known as USAE Nuclear Cratering Grouop (NCG), which was established in 1962.   It's a rather lengthy document, but if you want to reach it in its entirety, here's the link.      

I just hope that the U.S. government will level with us.  If there is an "object" buried under the Antaractice ice cap, and the object is of alien origin, and a time vortex has opened over Antarctica, we should all know about it.   I want to go back into time when things were simpler, rock n roll was just starting, and there wasn't any internet or fucking iPads.   It is very disturbing why the government always clamps down and denies everyting.  Even the media has been put on notice. This discovery is just too big to hide forever.  WikiLeaks, where are you when we need you.  

If our discovery of the object is the cause of all those UFO sighings, the aliens must be really pissed off we found their condo under the Antarctice ice cap.  Just the same, I hope that these aliens are benevolent creatures and will help us get rid of all those mean Tea Partyers.
