The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country.

Crop circle in Germany attracts many visitors
7/30/14

BERLIN (AP) — Thousands of people are trekking to a Bavarian farmer's field to check out a mysterious set of crop circles.

The ornate design was discovered by a balloonist last week and news of the find quickly spread online.

Farmer Christoph Huttner, who owns the wheat field near Weilheim, couldn't be reached for comment Wednesday but told the dpa news agency Tuesday he didn't create the circle himself.

He suggests students on summer holiday may have cut the image with a 75-meter diameter (246 feet) into his field.

The news agency says thousands of visitors have come to sing, dance and even swing pendulums in the giant image.

Huttner says he's not yet sure whether he will leave the circle in his field.

Remember the "V" miniseries in the 80's - the "aliens" that came down to earth wanted their water supply.

http://news.msn.com/science-technology/nasa-spacecraft-approaches-mars-to-seek-answers-to-lost-water
NASA spacecraft approaches Mars to seek answers to lost water
9/20/14

CAPE CANAVERAL Fla (Reuters) - A NASA spacecraft designed to investigate how Mars lost its water is expected to put itself into orbit around the Red Planet on Sunday after a 10-month journey.

After traveling 442 million miles (711 million km) from Earth, the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution, or MAVEN, probe faces a do-or-die burn of its six braking rockets beginning at 9:37 p.m. EDT.

If successful, the thruster burns will trim enough speed for MAVEN to be captured by Mars' gravity and fall into a looping orbit.

Over the next six weeks, as engineers check MAVEN's nine science instruments, the spacecraft will maneuver itself into an operational orbit that comes as close as 93 miles (150 km) and as far away as 3,853 miles (6,200 km) from Mars' surface.

Unlike previous Mars orbiters, landers and rovers, MAVEN will focus on the planet's atmosphere, which scientists suspect was once far thicker than the puny envelope of mostly carbon dioxide gas that surrounds it today.

Denser air would be needed for water to pool on the surface. While no water appears there today, Mars is covered with ancient river channels, lakebeds and chemical evidence of a warmer, wetter past.

"Where did the water go? Where did the CO2 (carbon dioxide) go from that early environment?" MAVEN lead science Bruce Jakosky, of the University of Colorado, asked reporters this week. "It can go two places: down in the crust or up to the top of the atmosphere where it can be lost to space," he said.

MAVEN's focus is the latter. The spacecraft, built by Lockheed Martin, will spend a year monitoring what happens when the solar wind and other charged particles hit the upper layers of Mars' atmosphere, stripping it away.

By studying the atmosphere today, scientists expect to learn about the processes involved and then use computer models to extrapolate back in time. Ultimately, scientists want to learn if Mars had the right conditions for life to evolve.

MAVEN, said Jakosky, will tell them "the boundary conditions that surround the potential for life."

MAVEN will join a fleet of two U.S. orbiters, two U.S. rovers and a European orbiter currently working at Mars. India's first Mars probe is due to arrive on Wednesday.

India successfully puts spacecraft in Mars' orbit
9/23/14

NEW DELHI (AP) — India triumphed in its first interplanetary mission, placing a satellite into orbit around Mars on Wednesday morning and catapulting the country into an elite club of deep-space explorers.

Scientists broke into wild cheers as the orbiter's engines completed 24 minutes of burn time to maneuver the spacecraft into its designated place around the red planet.

"We have gone beyond the boundaries of human enterprise and innovation," Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, standing alongside scientists with the Indian Space and Research Organisation at the command center in the southern tech hub of Bangalore.

"We have navigated our craft through a route known to very few," Modi said, congratulating the scientists and "all my fellow Indians on this historic occasion."

Scientists described the final stages of the Mars Orbiter Mission, affectionately nicknamed MOM, as flawless. The success marks a milestone for the space program in demonstrating that it can conduct complex missions and act as a global launch pad for commercial, navigational and research satellites.
.
It's also a major feat for the developing country of 1.2 billion people, most of whom are poor. At the same time, India has a robust scientific and technical educational system that has produced millions of software programmers, engineers and doctors, propelling many into the middle class.

Getting a spaceship successfully into orbit around Mars is no easy task. More than half the world's previous attempts — 23 out of 41 missions — have failed, including one by Japan in 1999.

The United States had its first success with a 1964 flyby by a spacecraft called Mariner 4, returning 21 images of the surface of the planet. The former Soviet Union reached the planet in 1971, and the European Space Agency in 2003.

The U.S. space agency NASA congratulated India in a Twitter message welcoming MOM to studying the red planet.

On Sunday, NASA achieved its own success in placing its Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission, or Maven, in position. The U.S. has two more satellites circling the planet at the moment, as well as two rovers rolling across the rocky Martian surface. The European Space Agency's Mars Express, launched over a decade ago, is still operating as well.

India was particularly proud that MOM was developed with homegrown technology and for a bargain price of about $75 million — a cost that Modi quipped was lower than many Hollywood film budgets. By comparison, NASA's much larger Maven mission cost nearly 10 times as much at $671 million.

India's 1,350-kilogram (nearly 3,000-pound) orbiter will now circle the planet for at least six months, with five solar-powered instruments gathering scientific data that may shed light on Martian weather systems as well as what happened to the water that is believed to have existed once on Mars in large quantities.

It also will search Mars for methane, a key chemical in life processes on Earth that could also come from geological processes. None of the instruments will send back enough data to answer these questions definitively, but experts say the data will help them better understand how planets form, what conditions might make life possible and where else in the universe it might exist

India wanted the spacecraft — also called Mangalyaan, meaning "Mars craft" in Hindi —to show the world its ability to design, plan, manage and operate a difficult, deep-space mission. India has already conducted dozens of successful satellite launches, including sending up the Chandrayaan-1 lunar orbiter, which discovered key evidence of water on the Moon in 2008.

The country's space scientists are already planning new missions, including putting a rover on the Moon. But space agency chief K. Radhakrishnan said their main focus would be to continue developing technologies for commercial and navigational satellite applications.

Will ET Be Here Soon? NASA Brings Scientists, Theologians Together To Prepare

Looking for extraterrestrial life is akin to a search for a cosmic needle-in-a-haystack, as evidenced by the above incredible Hubble Space Telescope image showing approximately 10,000 galaxies.

In large part, thanks to NASA's Kepler spacecraft, more than 1,400 planets have been identified beyond Earth.

A few days ago, NASA tried closing the gap between life on Earth and the possibilities of life elsewhere. The space agency and the Library of Congress (image below left) brought together scientists, historians, philosophers and theologians from around the world for a two-day symposium, "Preparing For Discovery." Their agenda: To explore how we prepare for the inevitable discovery of extraterrestrial life, be it simple microbial organisms or intelligent beings.

"We're looking at all scenarios about finding life. If you find microbes, that's one thing. If you find intelligence, it's another. And if they communicate, it's something else, and depending on what they say, it's something else!" said astronomer, symposium organizer and former chief NASA historian, Steven J. Dick.

"The idea is not to wait until we make a discovery, but to try and prepare the public for what the implications might be when such a discovery is made," Dick told The Huffington Post. "I think the reason that NASA is backing this is because of all the recent activity in the discovery of exoplanets and the advances in astrobiology in general.

"People just consider it much more likely now that we're going to find something -- probably microbes first and maybe intelligence later," he added. "The driving force behind this is from a scientific point of view that it seems much more likely now that we are going to find life at some point in the future."

Among the many speakers at last week's astrobiology symposium, one has raised a few international eyebrows in recent years.

"I believe [alien life exists], but I have no evidence. I would be really excited and it would make my understanding of my religion deeper and richer in ways that I can't even predict yet, which is why it would be so exciting," Brother Guy Consolmagno, a Jesuit brother, astronomer and Vatican planetary scientist told HuffPost senior science editor David Freeman.

Consolmagno has publicly stated his belief that "any entity -- no matter how many tentacles it has -- has a soul," and he's suggested that he would be happy to baptize any ETs, as long as they requested it.

"There has to be freedom to do science. Being a good scientist means admitting we never have the whole truth -- there's always more to learn." Consolmagno also doesn't think the public would panic when or if it's revealed that alien life has been found.

"I really think it would be a three-day wonder and then we'd go back to worrying about reality TV or the crazy things going on in Washington -- that's the way human beings are. Because I think most people are like me: we expect it's out there. And our reaction would be, 'Wow, thank heavens. It's about time."

Earth is no longer the center of the universe, nor is it flat -- at least that's the currently accepted thinking among most scientists. And we now know, conclusively, that there are a lot more planets than the ones in our own solar system.

"The number of habitable worlds in our galaxy is certainly in the tens of billions, minimum, and we haven't even talked about the moons. And the number of galaxies we can see, other than our own, is about 100 billion," Seth Shostak, senior astronomer at California's SETI Institute told HuffPost.

At the NASA/Library of Congress symposium, Shostak gave out some startling numbers about how many stars there are in the part of the universe that we can see. "It's a big number: 10,000 billion, billion. And we know that most of those stars have planets -- 70 or 80 percent. If all of those planets are sterile, and you're the only interesting thing happening in the cosmos, then you are a miracle. That would be exceptional in the extreme. So, the middle-of-the-road approach is to say, 'You're not a miracle, you're just another duck in a row of ducks.'"

"The bottom line of this," Shostak said, "is something like one in five of all stars may have an analog to Earth. That's a lot of habitable worlds, and, indeed, the number of Earths in our own galaxy might be on the order of 50 billion."

Those are big numbers to ponder.

The D.C. conference included a great deal of discussion about the upcoming mission of the Hubble's long-anticipated successor: the James Webb Space Telescope. As large as a tennis court, this deep space observatory is scheduled for a 2018 launch and will orbit beyond our moon. The Webb telescope will focus on new planetary discoveries and collect data from the atmospheres of those planets, looking for certain things that might point to what we would consider possible indicators of life.

HuffPost asked Dick, an astrobiologist, for his opinion on the continuing output of UFO reports around the world.

"I try to keep an open mind on this. Ninety-some percent can be explained by natural phenomena, etc. The question is what to do with the other 3 or 4 percent," Dick said. "My opinion is that they should be studied further, on the one hand. By definition, they're something that we don't know what they are. They could be some physical, psychological or social phenomena that we don't know about. But I think it's jumping to a conclusion that they're extraterrestrial. I don't see that evidence.

"I haven't looked at the evidence close enough to say that there's intelligence behind it. But I've seen enough to know that there are unexplained things that we should look at more, and right now, the U.S. government is not doing that."

Pope’s astronomer says ET is out there (and hopes to baptise aliens)

The Pope’s astronomer has spoken out on his belief that there is definitely life beyond Earth – and says he would happily baptise monstrosities from beyond the stars.

In his new booklet, ‘Would You Baptise an Extraterrestrial?’, Jesuit Brother Guy Consolmagno, the new president of the Vatican Observatory Foundation (and keeper of the Pope’s meteorite collection) also asks several other Big Questions (below).

THE BIG QUESTIONS (as we see them)

Does Jesus’ Christ’s redemption ‘count’ for beings from Proxima Centauri?

Should the church send out missionaries to alien planets?

Do extraterrestrials have their own version of Jesus?

Did God have to move the Star of Bethlehem by hand?

Earlier this year, the Pope said that Martians (none have been found so far, don’t panic) would be welcome into the Church.

The Pontiff said, ‘If, for example, tomorrow an expedition of Martians came, and some of them came to us: green, with that long nose and big ears, just like children paint them. … And one says, “But I want to be baptised!” What would happen?’

Consolmagno, who holds two planetary science degrees, has firm beliefs on the matter (clue: it’s a yes!).

He has said, ‘Any entity – no matter how many tentacles it has – has a soul.’

Aliens can rest easy about the prospect of space crusades, however.

Consolmagno reassures any aliens reading that he would baptise them, ‘Only if they asked.’

The long-serving astronomer says that finding ET does not disprove the existence of God. He hopes that, instead, the discovery of tentacled horrors from the void will lead people to question what being human means.

‘When we say human, human as compared to what?’ he asks.

Consolmagno also addresses such pressing questions as whether God had to move the Star of Bethlehem by hand.

‘When people are worried about what was the star of Bethlehem, they really want to know how much does God act in the universe?” he asks. ‘Did God make that star? Does God arrange things? Does God use divine coincidences?’

Pope's Astronomer Guy Consolmagno Says 'Aliens Exist'
Guy Consolmagno says presence of aliens does not disprove the existence of God


The astronomer of Pope Francis has said he believes there is life beyond Earth.

Brother Guy Consolmagno, president of the Vatican Observatory Foundation, made the comment in the booklet Would You Baptise an Extraterrestrial?, which he wrote with astronomer Father Paul Muller.

Consolmagno, who is the keeper of the Pope's meteorite collection, said he would be happy to baptize extraterrestrial creatures if they wanted the blessing. He added the presence of extraterrestrial life, "does not disprove the existence of God".

Instead, the discovery of "tentacled horrors from the void" should lead people to question what being human means. "When we say human, human as compared to what?" he asked.

In a 2010 statement, Consolmagno said that "all entities – despite how many tentacles they might have – have a soul".

In the booklet, Consolmagno tries also to answer important questions, such as, "Should the Church send out missionaries to alien planets?", "What's going to happen when the world ends?" and "Do extraterrestrials have their own version of Jesus?"

Consolmagno's booklet follows a statement by the Pope in May 2013 in which he said he would not deny baptism to Martians, because humans do not decide who should or should not receive the Holy Spirit.

"If – for example – tomorrow an expedition of Martians came, and some of them came to us, here… Martians, right? Green, with that long nose and big ears, just like children paint them… And one says, 'But I want to be baptized!' What would happen?" the pontiff said during morning Mass.

"When the Lord shows us the way, who are we to say, 'No, Lord, it is not prudent! No, let's do it this way.' Who are we to close doors?" he continued.

NASA Boss: ‘Life Did Exist On Mars, And May Have Life Now’



The longstanding question about the existence of life on Mars may have been answered, but one source believes the official news may have been a slip of the tongue. UFO Globe uploaded a compelling video of NASA chief Charles Bolden from an October 9 interview on the Mars Mission. He confirmed that the space agency does believe life existed for a time on the red planet. But then, he hesitantly said there may be evidence of current life forms.

    “People always ask the question ‘Why Mars?’ Several reasons: One, Mars is very Earth-like, or least used to be Earth-like. It is a planet, a sister planet to Earth. It is the most likely planet in our solar system, um, that had life at one time… may have life now, and we feel can definitely sustain life.”


A UFO Sightings Daily blogger, who claims to have a Masters in counseling, says that the NASA head’s body language shows that he was a bit ahead of himself in revealing the part about life possibly still existing on Mars. He points to a slight hesitation from Bolden when explaining the state of the mission.

    “Bolden then went on to say that Mars may still have life on it, but did you notice his hesitation. He hesitated when he began saying the part, ‘…may have life now.’ He even squinted his eyes and cringed (right side) as if it hurt him to say it. Deep down inside he was dying to tell the world and finally allowed himself to slip it out to the public.”

Nonetheless, the writer claims that the NASA chief’s revelations are victories to UFO enthusiasts, who now have more reason to believe in extraterrestrial life. Moreover, Bolden’s statements, according to the writer, validate what conspiracy theorists have held all along: Unidentified flying objects were not mere figments of Astro-biologists’ imaginations after all.

Bolden is challenged with efforts to explore the crimson planet with a goal of landing manned assets on Mars. The multinational efforts are underway, but much work has to be done in terms of studying the impact of non-Earth environments and ecosystems on the human body. Much of the interdisciplinary preparation for a successful Mars landing should be done on the moon’s surface.

Suddenly, ET and UFOs have taken on other meanings, perhaps, from science fiction to reality? Do you believe biological life forms exist on Mars?

Did Jesus Save the Klingons?
If or when we make contact with extraterrestrials, the effect on our religious sensibilities will be profound, says astronomer David Weintraub


The discovery of life beyond Earth would be a triumph for science but might wreak havoc on certain religions. Some faiths, such as evangelical Christianity, have long held that we are God’s favorite children and would not easily accommodate the notion that we would have to share the attention; others, such as Roman Catholicism, struggle with thorny questions such as whether aliens have original sin.
 
Now that researchers have discovered more than 1,500 exoplanets beyond the solar system, the day when scientists detect signs of life on one of them may be near at hand. Given this new urgency, Vanderbilt University astronomer David Weintraub decided to find out what the world’s religions had to say on the question of aliens. In his new book, Religions and Extraterrestrial Life: How Will We Deal with It? (Springer Praxis Books, 2014), Weintraub investigates the implications of life beyond Earth on more than two dozen faiths. Scientific American spoke to him about his findings, including whether Jesus saved the Klingons as well as humanity.
 
[An edited transcript of the conversation follows.]
 
Which religion will have the toughest time reconciling aliens with its beliefs?
The ones that have decided that we humans are the sole focus of God’s attention. The religions that see the world through that viewpoint tend to be some of the Christian evangelicals. The Eastern Orthodox Church, a branch of Catholicism, also has that view.
 
There are some people who claim that if God had created extraterrestrials, then there clearly would be words in the Old and New testaments, which we would have already found, that would have said explicitly that God created extraterrestrials—and since those words don’t exist, there can’t be. Well, there’s nothing in the Old and New testaments that talks about telephones either, and telephones do seem to exist.
 
Which religions are more open to the idea of alien life?
Asian religions for the most part are easily accommodating. In Buddhism, for example, there are lots of worlds. Reincarnation is an important part of that view of life. I could be reincarnated in principle anywhere in the universe. There’s nothing that says I could only be reincarnated on this planet. For Buddhism, there’s no single holy book, no single holy figure who wrote anything down. There are so many big ideas and so many sacred writings, the volume of ideas is almost limitless. A Buddhist wouldn’t be surprised to find life existing in other places.
 
You write that the Roman Catholics have a particular issue when it comes to extraterrestrials. What is their viewpoint?
Original sin is an important idea in Roman Catholicism. The idea that Adam and Eve shouldn’t have eaten the apple—they committed a sin and that’s how sin entered the lives of humans. Jesus’s act of dying on the cross was to redeem all humans from that original sin, to allow us to get to heaven.
 
Let’s say you discover some aliens on some other planets and you decide that you should convert them to Christianity. A reasonable question should be why? If they live on planet Earth, they could be descendants of Adam and Eve but if they are Klingons living on planet whatever, they couldn’t suffer from original sin because they’re not descendants of Adam and Eve. Christianity would make no sense for these creatures, unless our understanding of original sin makes no sense.
 
Roman Catholic theologians are starting to rethink that in light of the possibility that there could be living beings on other worlds. The idea of original sin may be recast not as sin that comes directly from a literal Garden of Eden and a literal Adam and Eve but that original sin somehow simply exists in the fabric of the universe.
 
Then you’ve also got to rethink some other ideas. If the redemption by the son of God who was incarnated in human form on the Plains of Galilee 2,000 years ago provides redemption for human beings on Earth, does that also provide salvation for Klingons?
 
Or does Jesus have to separately visit their planet?
Right. That’s a serious theological problem. Most theologians are pretty seriously averse to the idea that the son of God will have to visit every planet and get crucified on every planet.
 
What if there’s another planet that’s been in existence for 100 million years before us? Do all of those creatures not get to go to heaven because the Jesus event didn’t happen until 2,000 years ago? Is that fair? It’s not for me to say.
 
Some Catholic theologians are wiling to wave their hands and say it’s simply not a problem; God will take care of it. Some say it’s a serious problem. But theologically it’s a pretty interesting problem. These questions have been sitting out there for several hundred years. Two hundred years ago [American revolutionary and political philosopher] Thomas Paine put these questions out there very eloquently, and theologians started to address this and decided, yeah, this is a problem.
 
Do any religions explicitly discuss the possibility of life beyond Earth in scripture?
The middle of the 19th century is when a whole bunch of new religions were born, and many of those religions had something to say about extraterrestrials. In Seventh-Day Adventism, for example, the founder had visions of extraterrestrials—Saturnians—in which she saw them and saw that they were pure; they had not sinned. The only sinful beings in the universe were humans on Earth. That was her solution to the Thomas Paine problem, the original sin problem. The Saturnians didn’t need Christianity because they didn’t suffer original sin.
 
What about other religions, such as Quakers or Jews?
Quakers don’t really care if there are extraterrestrials. In Judaism it doesn’t matter—there’s very little in Hebrew scripture that relates to the question.
 
Mormonism is pretty interesting. There is a clear belief in Mormonism in extraterrestrial life. All Mormons have as a goal to become exalted, to become a god. To become a god you effectively get your own planet with your own creatures on it and you’ll take good care of them. The only place in the universe where you have the opportunity to become exalted is Earth. Those Mormons that receive the highest level of exaltation will be equals with God and have their own worlds, occupied with living beings seeking their own salvation and immortality. The prophet Joseph Smith taught that these worlds are or will be inhabited by sentient beings. It is everywhere taken for granted. They’re not vague at all. There’s no doubt that the Mormons are comfortable about the idea that there are others on other worlds. They’d be unhappy if we didn’t find anybody. But they’d just say we haven’t looked hard enough.
 
From all your research, does it seem like the discovery of extraterrestrial life is likely to have a dramatic effect on people’s religious beliefs?
I can’t think of anything that would be bigger. I think at bottom most people have this idea that we humans are pretty special creatures and that God is paying attention to us. If we find somebody else, then there are lots of somebodies, most likely. And if there are lots of somebodies, that somehow would seem to make us less important. I think that is, psychologically, what has happened a number of times in human history. When Copernicus first said the Earth goes around the sun, theologically that meant we’re not the center of the universe anymore. Later on when astronomers said the sun isn’t the center of the universe, it’s just a silly star out in the suburbs of the galaxy, that threatened our well-being again. Suddenly if there are other beings out there, I think it changes completely the way we think about our place in the universe. I think it would be truly profound to know that.

Let’s say you discover some aliens on some other planets and you decide that you should convert them to Christianity. A reasonable question should be why? If they live on planet Earth, they could be descendants of Adam and Eve but if they are Klingons living on planet whatever, they couldn’t suffer from original sin because they’re not descendants of Adam and Eve. Christianity would make no sense for these creatures, unless our understanding of original sin makes no sense.

Yah you have no understanding.

Jhn 8:47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

When Adam fell ALL OF CREATION fell with him. Not just man. Everything in this creation fell. So if there were any "aliens" what so ever, they fell also.

Gen 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Gen 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
Gen 3:18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
Gen 3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

Rom 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.


As you see in Gen 1, EVERYTHING meaning all of creation was good. No blights anywhere. Adam fell, creation was cursed, and its confirmed all the way in Rom chapter 8. ALL of CREATION, groaneth and travaileth in pain together, that isnt good. All of creation fell when man fell. So if aliens existed they fell also as they are part of creation.

Rom 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Sin entered the WORLD, not just man. Death entered creation by this, not just for man.

Area 51 scientist's deathbed video: UFOs are real, aliens have federal jobs
10/30/14

In one of the most extraordinary and strange deathbed confessions ever, an Area 51 scientist and career government worker recently left behind a video revealing supposed federal secrets that are nothing short of a conspiracy theorist's dream come true. The Inquistr reported Oct. 28 that Boyd Bushman, a highly accredited aerospace scientist and the holder of numerous innovative patents, decided to come clean in his last hours and record what he knew about the U. S. government's dealings with aliens and its secret UFO program. Perhaps most astonishing of all, though, was his revelation that not only were UFOs real, but that 18 extraterrestrials were currently working for the U. S. government.

Boyd Bushman, whose career saw the man holding positions with Lockheed-Martin, Hughes Aircraft and other aerospace firms, died on August 7. But prior to his passing, he gave an interview that has caught the attention of many in the UFO community. His words affirm much of what many have come to believe -- that UFOs are real, that the government has had dealings with aliens for decades, and that there has been a concerted effort to keep the information secret from the general populace over the same period.

Bushman says in the video that he was responsible at Area 51 for "reverse engineering" alien technology for use in the U. S. military. Among his revelations was that the alien craft was indeed saucer-shaped -- it was an actual "flying saucer" -- and 38 feet across.

But far more shocking -- some might say more disturbing -- was Bushman's claims that aliens that had traveled to Earth were out and about, working for the federal government. The scientist said there were 18 extraterrestrials working for the government. Some of them were at least 250 years old.

Boyd Bushman isn't the first former government employee with inside knowledge of secret facilities like Area 51 who has been willing to share their experiences. However, he may be the most credible. His position as an aerospace engineer and his having opened up just before his death in what amounts to a deathbed confession (an act seen as having legal weight) lends extra merit to his words.

Bushman also produced several photos of what he claimed were aliens working at Area 51, some of which he says died while working at the top secret government facility. The Nevada facility has been operational since 1955 and has been the focus of speculation ever since. Being an experimental testing ground cloaked the base not on in secrecy but also added the atmosphere that gave rise to the idea of cover-ups and sinister goings-on.

It is a story worthy of "The X-Files." Still, is there any validity to the claims of the late Boyd Bushman? Is Area 51 exactly what conspiracy theorists and UFO true believers have claimed it to be over the years -- a hiding place for UFOs and extraterrestrials?

Although Bushman's claims may be difficult to verify, one thing is certain: His video testament has become something of note. Since it was posted on Oct. 8, the interview video has garnered over 2.6 million views to date.

Workshop Ponders Challenges of Communicating Across the Cosmos

When astronomers conducting the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) find other cultures in the universe, could we understand their messages?

How can we craft a reply that intelligence on other planets would comprehend? To tackle these questions, the SETI Institute will convene the international workshop "Communicating Across the Cosmos: How Can We Make Ourselves Understood by Other Civilizations in the Galaxy?" on November 10-11, 2014, at its headquarters in Mountain View, California.

"As we search for a universal language to communicate with civilizations beyond Earth, where should we start? Math? Pictures? Something else?" asked Douglas Vakoch, Director of Interstellar Message Composition at the SETI Institute and organizer of the workshop. "It may be much more difficult to create an understandable message than we've thought in the past, and our workshop faces those challenges head on. "Recommendations from the meeting will be incorporated into the final report of the International Academy of Astronautics' Study Group on Interstellar Message Construction.

"In the past few years, astronomers have shown that most stars have planets, so there could be many worlds where life has arisen," said David Black, president and CEO of the SETI Institute. "If we discover life beyond Earth, especially technological life, it would have a profound effect on humanity. We need to take concrete steps now to plan for first contact. The SETI Institute just held a workshop on non-human communication that examined the complex languages used by other life forms on this planet. The insights that we gain into the fundamental aspects of communication from those types of studies inform us potentially about communication with non-terrestrial life forms."

At the workshop, speakers from six countries will draw on disciplines ranging from astronomy and mathematics, to anthropology and linguistics, as they debate the best ways to create meaningful messages. "As we explore ways to communicate with intelligence in the cosmos, we need to do so intelligently," explained Pierre Schwob, vice chairman of the SETI Institute's Board of Trustees.

The SETI Institute searches for radio signals from other civilizations with the Allen Telescope Array in northern California, but does not transmit signals to other worlds. "We're also seeing increased interest within the international SETI community in actively transmitting messages, trying to elicit a response from other intelligence that may be out there," said Vakoch. "Before we can do that, we need to be clear about what we would say, and how we would say it -- the same questions we'll grapple with in this meeting."

alien or no alien?

Ata is the common name given to the skeletal remains of a 6-inch (150 mm)-long human that was found during 2003 in a deserted Chilean town in the Atacama Desert, hence the abbreviated name. Since that time, Ata has been placed into a private collection in Spain. The remains were found by Oscar Muńoz near an abandoned church in a ghost town called La Noria, 56 km into the interior of the Iquique Province in northern Chile. Muńoz later sold the remains to a local pub owner for 30,000 Chilean pesos (51 US dollars), who, in turn, sold them to the current owner, Ramón Navia-Osorio, a Spanish businessman.


"Although initially thought to be older, the remains have been dated to the last few decades, and found to contain high-quality DNA, suitable for scientific analysis. Ata has an irregularly shaped skull and is missing two ribs.[1] Ata also may have suffered from oxycephaly. There are several hypotheses about what Ata is. Considering that the frontal suture of the skull is very open and because the hands and feet are not fully ossified, anatomist and paleoanthropologist William Jungers has suggested that it was a human fetus born prematurely and not surviving. An alternative hypothesis, by immunologist Garry Nolan is that Ata had progeria and thus died prematurely. Nolan's more speculative suggestion is that Ata suffered from a very severe form of dwarfism, but no genes for dwarfism were found during his team's genetic analysis. Furthermore, a professor of medicine, Ralph Lachman, said that dwarfism could not account for all the features found in Ata.

During the DNA analysis by Nolan, the B2 haplotype group was found in the remains. Haplogroups identify human genetic populations that often are associated distinctly with particular geographic regions around the globe. Combined with the alleles found in the mitochondrial DNA contained in the remains, the findings suggested that Ata is indigenous to the western region of South America. While it has been claimed that Ata is an alien by ufologists, this speculation is inconsistent with the human genetic material that is present in the remains."

Study Finds Catholics Ready For Alien Saviors, Some Evangelicals Remain Leery

Study suggests faith influences opinion about space exploration


By Dennis Sadowski
Catholic News Service

WASHINGTON (CNS) -- How people value space exploration may just depend on someone's particular faith.

An analysis of the results of several national surveys by a University of Dayton political science professor found that Catholics are more supportive of the U.S. maintaining a leading role in probing the depths of space and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence than people of other faiths.

Political scientist Joshua Ambrosius told Catholic News Service evangelical Protestants, on the other hand, are significantly less likely than people of other faiths to see the value of the nation's space endeavors. Evangelicals also tended to have less knowledge about space, he said.

Why evangelicals are less supportive of the various facets of space exploration is uncertain, but having grown up in an evangelical family, Ambrosius said he can understand some possible reasons.

"In my family, there wasn't a lot of discussion about science and its relevance. I had influences that would question the findings and contributions of modern science, particularly the view of evolutionary origins (of humans). I grew up in a church and a tradition very oriented around creation science. It wasn't until I was an older teenager and in college (that) I turned to accept the scientific explanation of evolution," he said.

Ambrosius studied various factors outlined in four surveys, including knowledge of space, interest in space, support for funding of space exploration, views on the benefits of space exploration, space optimism and space nationalism -- whether the U.S. should be a leader in space exploration.

He analyzed data from the 2010 General Social Survey of the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago; the June 2011 Political Survey of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press; the April 2010 Political Future Survey and the spring 2009 General Public Science Survey. He broke down responses from Catholics, evangelicals, mainline Protestants, Jews, Eastern religions and people with no religion.

"Evangelicals express significantly higher expectations that an asteroid will hit earth, but significantly lower expectations of the discovery of life off the earth," he said in his report, "Separation of Church and Space: Religious Influences on Support for Space Exploration Policy."

Ambrosius presented his report in November at the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion conference in Indianapolis.

He found that evangelicals are the least knowledgeable, interested and supportive of space exploration. He also learned that Jews and members of Eastern religions were most knowledgeable and supportive.

Evangelicals also are more certain that Jesus will return in the next 40 years than they are that humans will make significant progress in space exploration during that time, Ambrosius wrote.

For Catholics, the depth of the practice of their faith does not seem to matter when it comes to supporting the country's space program. Ambrosius' analysis found that there was no difference in the support of space exploration between Catholics who attend Mass weekly and those who attend less often.

The political scientist said he planned to look at the connection between the teachings of evangelical leaders and views of people in the pews regarding space.

"There seems to be a role that church leaders, particularly among evangelicals, play in developing space policy and space exploration," Ambrosius explained.

The findings are significant because evangelical Christians could influence policymaking when it comes to funding space exploration. Evangelicals comprise about 26 percent of the U.S. population, according to the Religious Landscape Survey of the Pew Research Center's Religion and Public Life Project, and if they are elected to policymaking positions, they could affect federal spending on space exploration and research into the possibility of colonizing other planets, Ambrosius said.

"Definitely the space community needs to build upon this interplay of outreach to religious publics," he added.

UK Scientists: Aliens May Have Sent Space Seeds To Create Life On Earth

Scientists in the U.K. have examined a tiny metal circular object, and are suggesting it might be a micro-organism deliberately sent by extraterrestrials to create life on Earth.

Don't be fooled by the size of the object in the microscopic image above. It may appear to look like a planet-sized globe, but in fact, it's no bigger than the width of a human hair.

The University of Buckingham reports that the minuscule metal globe was discovered by astrobiologist Milton Wainwright and a team of researchers who examined dust and minute matter gathered by a high-flying balloon in Earth's stratosphere.

"It is a ball about the width of a human hair, which has filamentous life on the outside and a gooey biological material oozing from its centre," Wainwright said, according to Express.co.uk.

"One theory is it was sent to Earth by some unknown civilization in order to continue seeding the planet with life," Wainwright hypothesizes.

That theory comes from a Nobel Prize winner.

"This seeming piece of science fiction -- called 'directed panspermia' -- would probably not be taken seriously by any scientist were it not for the fact that it was very seriously suggested by the Nobel Prize winner of DNA fame, Francis Crick," said Wainwright.


Panspermia is a theory that suggests life spreads across the known physical universe, hitchhiking on comets or meteorites.

The idea of directed panspermia was suggested by Crick, a molecular biologist, who was the co-discoverer of the structure of DNA in 1953. Twenty years later, Crick co-wrote -- with biochemist Leslie Orgel -- a scientific paper about directed panspermia.

The abstract of their manuscript states:

It now seems unlikely that extraterrestrial living organisms could have reached the Earth either as spores driven by the radiation pressure from another star or as living organisms imbedded in a meteorite. As an alternative to these nineteenth-century mechanisms, we have considered Directed Panspermia, the theory that organisms were deliberately transmitted to the Earth by intelligent beings on another planet.

We conclude that it is possible that life reached the Earth in this way, but that the scientific evidence is inadequate at the present time to say anything about the probability. We draw attention to the kinds of evidence that might throw additional light on the topic.

In contrast to what Crick-Orgel speculated about in 1973, four decades later, a team of scientists, led by astronomer-astrobiologist Chandra Wickramasinghe of the Buckingham Center for Astrobiology, announced they had found fossils with biological properties attached to a meteorite (check out the slideshow at the bottom of this story) that fell in Sri Lanka.

Of course, these controversial claims bring forth the skeptical side of science.

In the case of the meteorite fossils, astronomer Phil Plait wrote that the scientists didn't do a good enough job convincing him there were actual fossils in that meteorite.

Wainwright and his team launched balloons nearly 17 miles into Earth's stratosphere, and when they examined the material collected by one of the balloons (like the one pictured below), they discovered a small crash mark which indicated to them that the microscopic, circular object didn't simply land softly.

"On hitting the stratosphere sampler, the sphere made an impact crater, a minute version of the huge impact crater on Earth caused by the asteroid said to have killed off the dinosaurs," Wainwright said.

Even with this more recent discovery of a tiny globe found lodged into a high-flying balloon, the alien space seed proponents know they have a long way to go before that can be proven and accepted by the scientific community.

"Unless, of course, we can find details of the civilization that is supposed to have sent it in this respect, it is probably an unprovable theory," Wainwright conceded.

Time -- and space -- will tell.

Obama adviser John Podesta's biggest regret: Keeping America in dark about UFOs

Outgoing senior Obama adviser John Podesta reflected on his latest White House stint Friday, listing his favorite moments and biggest regrets from the past year. Chief among them: depriving the American people of the truth about UFOs.

Quote
John Podesta        ✔ @Podesta44
Follow

1. Finally, my biggest failure of 2014: Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files. #thetruthisstilloutthere cc: @NYTimesDowd

Podesta’s longtime fascination with UFOs is well-documented, as his brief political hiatus following four years as President Bill Clinton’s chief of staff freed him up to pursue his otherworldly passion.

At a 2002 press conference organized by the Coalition for Freedom of Information, Podesta spoke on the importance of disclosing government UFO investigations to the public.

“It’s time to find out what the truth really is that’s out there,”  he said. “We ought to do it, really, because it’s right. We ought to do it, quite frankly, because the American people can handle the truth. And we ought to do it because it’s the law.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smwQau3HtKM&feature=player_embedded&list=PL574D16C379439373

Following Podesta’s tweet, Friday, the Washington Post recalled an exchange one of its reporters had with Podesta in 2007. Karen Tumulty had asked Podesta about reports that the Clinton Library in Little Rock, Arkansas, had been bombarded with Freedom of Information Act Requests specifically seeking email correspondence to and from the former chief of staff including terms like “X-Files” and “Area 51.” Podesta’s response, through a spokesperson, was “The truth is out there,” the tagline for the TV show “The X-Files” of which Podesta was known to be a fan.

A 2010 editorial in Missouri’s Columbia Tribune disparaged reports that Podesta had asked an outspoken UFO photographer to stop discussing his knowledge of extraterrestrial activities in public.

“One wonders why Podesta would do such a radical reversal, given his former plea for UFO disclosure,” the editorial implored.

But contrary to the Columbia Tribune’s concerns, Podesta had clearly not abandoned the cause. He wrote an introduction to the 2010 book “UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record.”

Unfortunately, Podesta will likely have little time to fill out FOIA requests in his new job at Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. Perhaps, as his tweet suggests, he’s passing the torch to New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd.

A 1200 Year Old Vimana - Alien Flying Machine?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rym865DWWrI&feature=youtube

"Now, there is also a circular object carved on this Vimana, that's very similar to a modern day propeller. You can even see the spinning blades of the propeller. Remember that this is a side view of a scene, which shows only one side of everything. This means that there could have been another propeller on the other side for balance. Again, notice the similarity with the modern day jetpack that uses two rotors on either side. Was this 1200 year old carving created based on an actual working Vimana? Why else would it be so similar to a working jetpack today?

Look at this part at the top of a modern day jetpack. It is called a safety roll bar, which is a gear stick like device used for safe landing. Now, look at the top of the Vimana, a very similar device that looks like a gear stick too. Is this all just a coincidence? Were these carvings done based on pure imagination, or did people carve what they really saw?
Speaking of creating what you see, let's take a look at how the Pushpaka Vimana is shown in modern day Indian movies and TV shows. You can see how our generation which is more used to commercial and private planes show it as a small aircraft with wings. This is because the directors create these scenes with machines that they are familiar with. Could this be true with this ancient carving as well? Did ancient people see human like figures flying with devices attached to their backs? Did they simply carve what they saw? I say human like figures because Ravana is defined as a "humanoid" with supernatural capabilities. Were these flying humanoids with complex machines, in fact extraterrestrials?

This 1200 year old Vimana has almost all the features including a fuel tank, but something very important is missing. For jetpacks or rocket belts to take off from the ground, you need at least two pipes facing downwards that will blow out heat to create a steam powered thrust. This is a crucial piece for a jetpack, so just hold on to that thought that this Vimana does not have that tube or pipe-like extension.
Now, you can see a carving of a horse as a part of the Vimana. There is no way it can be a real horse because it cannot be that much smaller than Ravana and Jatayu, and there is no reason why it would be attached to Ravana's back. Moreover, notice that this horse is carved facing the opposite direction of Ravana's flight. What's the secret behind this mysterious horse that makes no sense at all?
I am going to read a few lines from a Hindu scripture about this horse or mare that's called Vadavamukha. "This was a lifeless mare with a needle like mouth. It hissed like a snake, breathed fire and spit out hot smoke which blistered human skin". End of passage from the scripture. This must be the answer to the missing piece. This horse after all, is the mechanical device that pumped out the heat and steam needed for the jet pack to take off. Notice its mouth facing downwards and when it breathes fire or steam, the Vimana would be pushed up in the air."

I just love this part,

The whole UFO's of the hindu religion comes from a 20th century channeled book. Just amazing...



So glad Chris gives all the info and links in the transcription sections.

UK Scientists: Aliens May Have Sent Space Seeds To Create Life On Earth

Scientists in the U.K. have examined a tiny metal circular object, and are suggesting it might be a micro-organism deliberately sent by extraterrestrials to create life on Earth.

Don't be fooled by the size of the object in the microscopic image above. It may appear to look like a planet-sized globe, but in fact, it's no bigger than the width of a human hair.

The University of Buckingham reports that the minuscule metal globe was discovered by astrobiologist Milton Wainwright and a team of researchers who examined dust and minute matter gathered by a high-flying balloon in Earth's stratosphere.

"It is a ball about the width of a human hair, which has filamentous life on the outside and a gooey biological material oozing from its centre," Wainwright said, according to Express.co.uk.

"One theory is it was sent to Earth by some unknown civilization in order to continue seeding the planet with life," Wainwright hypothesizes.

That theory comes from a Nobel Prize winner.

"This seeming piece of science fiction -- called 'directed panspermia' -- would probably not be taken seriously by any scientist were it not for the fact that it was very seriously suggested by the Nobel Prize winner of DNA fame, Francis Crick," said Wainwright.

Panspermia is a theory that suggests life spreads across the known physical universe, hitchhiking on comets or meteorites.

The idea of directed panspermia was suggested by Crick, a molecular biologist, who was the co-discoverer of the structure of DNA in 1953. Twenty years later, Crick co-wrote -- with biochemist Leslie Orgel -- a scientific paper about directed panspermia.

The abstract of their manuscript states:

    It now seems unlikely that extraterrestrial living organisms could have reached the Earth either as spores driven by the radiation pressure from another star or as living organisms imbedded in a meteorite. As an alternative to these nineteenth-century mechanisms, we have considered Directed Panspermia, the theory that organisms were deliberately transmitted to the Earth by intelligent beings on another planet.

    We conclude that it is possible that life reached the Earth in this way, but that the scientific evidence is inadequate at the present time to say anything about the probability. We draw attention to the kinds of evidence that might throw additional light on the topic.

In contrast to what Crick-Orgel speculated about in 1973, four decades later, a team of scientists, led by astronomer-astrobiologist Chandra Wickramasinghe of the Buckingham Center for Astrobiology, announced they had found fossils with biological properties attached to a meteorite (check out the slideshow at the bottom of this story) that fell in Sri Lanka.

Of course, these controversial claims bring forth the skeptical side of science.

In the case of the meteorite fossils, astronomer Phil Plait wrote that the scientists didn't do a good enough job convincing him there were actual fossils in that meteorite.

Wainwright and his team launched balloons nearly 17 miles into Earth's stratosphere, and when they examined the material collected by one of the balloons (like the one pictured below), they discovered a small crash mark which indicated to them that the microscopic, circular object didn't simply land softly.

"On hitting the stratosphere sampler, the sphere made an impact crater, a minute version of the huge impact crater on Earth caused by the asteroid said to have killed off the dinosaurs," Wainwright said.

Even with this more recent discovery of a tiny globe found lodged into a high-flying balloon, the alien space seed proponents know they have a long way to go before that can be proven and accepted by the scientific community.

"Unless, of course, we can find details of the civilization that is supposed to have sent it in this respect, it is probably an unprovable theory," Wainwright conceded.

Time -- and space -- will tell.

Are We Being Prepared To Believe That Extraterrestrials Seeded Life On Earth And That Jesus Was An Alien?

There are those who believe that life was first brought to Earth from far across the universe.  In fact, this week there were headlines in news sources all over the world about how British scientists had discovered “evidence” that extraterrestrials may have seeded life on this planet.  And as you will see later on in this article, some of the “most brilliant minds in science” have been promoting this theory for a long time.  But now the support for an extraterrestrial origin for life on Earth seems to be reaching a crescendo.  In addition to unprecedented scientific support, we are being constantly bombarded by messages in popular culture that our planet has been in contact with aliens in the past and that they are about to make contact again.  This is a theme which we see in dozens of novels, television shows, movies and video games.  So could it be possible that we are being “prepared” to believe that extraterrestrials seeded life on our planet?  And as you will see below, there are even many that actually believe that Jesus was an alien.  Yes, that probably sounds very strange, but there are some very important people that are actually convinced that this is true.

But first let’s talk about the origin of life on Earth.  The theory that life originated elsewhere in the universe and was eventually brought here by extraterrestrials has been around for decades.  It is known as “directed panspermia” and this is what Wikipedia has to say about it…

    Directed panspermia concerns the deliberate transport of microorganisms in space, sent to Earth to start life here, or sent from Earth to seed new solar systems with life by introduced species of microorganisms on lifeless planets. The Nobel prize winner Francis Crick, along with Leslie Orgel proposed that life may have been purposely spread by an advanced extraterrestrial civilization, but considering an early “RNA world” Crick noted later that life may have originated on Earth. It has been suggested that ‘directed’ panspermia was proposed in order to counteract various objections, including the argument that microbes would be inactivated by the space environment and cosmic radiation before they could make a chance encounter with Earth.

But even though this theory has been around for a very long time, it is only in recent years when it has seen a surge in popularity.

And as I mentioned above, this week we learned that UK scientists say that they have found some “evidence” for this theory…

    UK scientists have just found some evidence supporting a theory so out of this world it makes others look unimaginative by comparison. A strange, tiny object may suggest that Earth was actually seeded by extra-terrestrials to create life.

    It sounds nuts, but first let’s at least look at the findings. Astrobiologist Milton Wainwright and a team of researchers at the University of Buckingham recently discovered a microscopic metal sphere in the dust from the team’s atmospheric balloon. Specifically, the hair-length ball is made of titanium and vanadium with a viscous liquid, and most intriguingly, a biological core.

    What on Earth would a ball filled with alien goo be doing, well, on Earth? According to the theory of “directed panspermia,” coined by Nobel Prize winner Francis Crick, such objects may have been used by life forms from outside our Solar System to bring creation to our planet. “One theory is it was sent to Earth by some unknown civilization in order to continue seeding the planet with life,” said Wainwright in an interview while referencing Crick’s work.

Very interesting.

And it is important to note how eagerly those scientists and mainstream publications are interpreting the biological material that was found as “alien goo”.

In this world, most people end up believing exactly what they want to believe, and there are many in the scientific world that now want to believe that aliens brought life to this planet.

At this point, even some of the biggest stars in the entire scientific world are admitting that they are open to this theory.

For example, consider what evolutionist Richard Dawkins told Ben Stein during an interview for the movie “Expelled“…

BEN STEIN: What do you think is the possibility that Intelligent Design might turn out to be the answer to some issues in genetics or in evolution?

RICHARD DAWKINS: Well, it could come about in the following way. It could be that at some earlier time, somewhere in the universe, a civilization evolved, probably by some kind of Darwinian means, probably to a very high level of technology, and designed a form of life that they seeded onto perhaps this planet. Now that is a possibility, and an intriguing possibility. And I suppose it’s possible that you might find evidence for that if you look at the details of biochemistry, molecular biology, you might find a signature of some sort of designer.

A YouTube video containing this exchange is posted below…



Crazy stuff.

But wait, there’s more.

As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, there are even some that believe that Jesus Christ was an extraterrestrial.  In fact, this was a topic on a BBC broadcast recently…

    A program aired on the British Broadcasting Corporation recently held a discussion as to whether or not major religious figures like Jesus Christ and the Buddha were from other planets.

    In a religion-focused series titled “The Big Questions”, host Nicky Campbell oversaw a discussion asking the query, “Have beings from other planets guided our religions?”

    “Last month NASA’s Kepler space telescope identified another planet that might have the right conditions for life,” said Campbell.

    “It will be no surprise to the followers of those religions who’ve long believed that life – possibly not as we know it – exists elsewhere in the galaxy. Life which has possibly exerted its influence here on planet Earth. Have beings from other planets guided our religions?”

But it isn’t just some fringe crazies that believe this stuff.

Investigative reporter Tom Horn has discovered that some top Vatican scholars are also into this kind of thing…

    Do Vatican scholars actually believe Jesus might have been the Star-Child of an alien race? Does Consolmagno and/or other Jesuits secretly hold that the “Virgin Birth” was in reality an abduction scenario in which Mary was impregnated by ET, giving birth to the hybrid Jesus? As incredible as that sounds, you should prepare for the unexpected answer as this series unfolds.

    All this would seem impossible theology if not for the fact that other high ranking Vatican spokespersons—those who routinely study from the “Star Base” (as local Indians call it) on Mt. Graham—have been saying the same in recent years. This includes Dr. Christopher Corbally, Vice Director for the Vatican Observatory Research Group on Mt. Graham until 2012, who believes our image of God will have to change if disclosure of alien life is soon revealed by scientists (including the need to evolve from the concept of an “anthropocentric” God into a “broader entity”), [iv] and the current Vatican Observatory director, Father Josč Funes who has gone equally far, suggesting that alien life not only exists in the universe and is “our brother” but will, when manifested, confirm the “true” faith of Christianity and the dominion of Rome.

With each passing year, more people than ever are looking to the stars for the answers to the most important questions that we face.

Thanks to a relentless bombardment from books, video games, movies and television shows, there are now hundreds of millions of people all around the globe that are anticipating that alien lifeforms could make contact with us at any moment.

So are we being prepared to believe that extraterrestrials seeded life on this planet?

Are we being prepared to accept them as our friends or even potentially as our saviors?

Please feel free to share what you think by posting a comment below…

Alien Microchip Found Inside Napoleon’s Skull

"Every once in a while, great men rise to power and manage to change the face of the Earth. Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great and Napoleon Bonaparte conquered through bravery and intelligence and by being shrewd and ruthless.

But there are some who think the success of these grand historical figures lies in the guidance received from external sources.

In 2012, French scientists were examining Napoleon’s skull when they made an astonishing discovery. Dr. Andre Dubois was looking for signs of a pituitary gland disorder that might have contributed to Napoleon’s short stature when he noticed a tiny protrusion on the inside of the skull.

Taking a closer look, he found an unusual microchip about a fifth of an inch long embedded inside the bone. Judging by the bone growth around the chip, the researchers concluded that it must have been implanted when Bonaparte was still young.

The researchers assumed it was a microchip as it didn’t resemble any known technology, past or present. Was Napoleon abducted? He certainly never spoke about this himself.

The interesting twist is that he had disappeared for a few days in the summer 1794, at the age of 25. Napoleon later claimed he had been held prisoner during the Thermidorian coup but no records of his arrest exist.

In a relatively short period of time, he had risen to power. He was put in charge of the entire French army and turned it into a successful force. Victory after victory led to him proclaiming himself emperor of France in 1804. He managed to conquer a large portion of Europe while subduing all who opposed him.

His military strategies were far ahead of his time and Napoleon himself was an accomplished tactician. Dr. Dubois speculated that the implant might have enhanced his abilities somehow. He also hinted that the implant might have altered the electrical signals from the brain to his heart, as he was usually seen with a hand on his chest.

The consequences of this discovery are tremendous. The usual victims of alien abduction are regular people who play no major roles in human society. If their discovery is true, it means that aliens have intervened in the past to change the course of history and they might do so in the present and future as well.

If this is the case, the outcome of our unaided history is forever lost. Nobody knows what purpose these interventions served or whether they aimed to help humankind or not."

Roswell Alien Photo Slides To Be Released: ‘Smoking Gun’ Evidence Of 1947 UFO Crash?

A team of UFO researchers announced at a livestreamed online press conference on Feb. 4 that it has obtained Kodachrome slide images that provide “smoking gun” evidence that aliens are real and that an alien UFO crash actually occurred in Roswell in 1947, despite government denial.

According to Anthony Bragalia, who was involved in investigating and authenticating the purported photographic evidence, the slides represent “stunning visual evidence of a humanoid creature that was found crashed near Roswell.”

He said the images on the slides have been examined and declared authentic by a photo specialist who had worked with Kodak for decades and had led technical project teams at the company’s headquarters in Rochester, New York, and published authoritative books in the field.

After conducting detailed and extensive tests on the slides, the specialist concluded that they were authentic slides from 1947 that had not been “tampered with or manipulated in any way.”

    “What is depicted is really there, accurately reflected in the emulsion as an actual moment in time in 1947. Science has weighed in and has determined that these are real slides that are really from 1947.”

    “Documentary Evidence is a legal term that relates to evidence that accurately reflects a moment in time.”

    “The Only Conclusion: This humanoid is not a deformed person, mummy, dummy, simian or dead serviceman.”

    “It is not a creature that finds its origin on Earth.”

Open Minds’ Alejandro Rojas reports that the team presenting the evidence first announced discovery of the “Roswell slides” last month at American University in Washington, D.C. Tom Carey, one of the UFO researchers who obtained the slides, used the livestreamed online conference held on Feb. 4 to release more information about the photos and set a date when they will be released to the public.

The conference was sponsored by a well known Mexican journalist and UFO investigator, Jaime Maussan, whose website and YouTube channel are promoting the release of the photos on May 5, 2015, at the National Auditorium in Mexico City.

The promotion has involved interviews and videos that provide more background information about the source and nature of the photos.

According to Bragalia, the event at Mexico’s National Auditorium on May 5 will be transmitted live. Noted researchers will provide detailed information about the background and origin of the slides.

But ahead of release of the photos, a video showing a computer generated image of what the aliens look like was posted to the Tercermilenio YouTube channel (see video below — the documentary is in the Spanish language).

A second video posted to the YouTube channel shows an interview with the former NASA astronaut Edgar Mitchell, a native of Roswell and the sixth man on the moon in the Apollo 14 mission. In the interview, Mitchell states that he came to believe that an alien spacecraft actually crashed in Roswell in 1947 after interviewing people from Roswell, including a friend who was an Army Major.


Another video, which was been removed from the YouTube channel, shows an interview with a man identified as Adam Dew, who reveals the origin of the photos. According to Dew, his friend’s sister discovered the photos in 1989 while cleaning out the house of a deceased and childless American couple, Bernerd and Hilda Blair Ray, in Arizona.

Bernerd Ray was an oil exploration geologist who had worked in the fields of the Roswell area of New Mexico in the 1940s and was president of the Texas chapter of the American Institute of Petroleum Geologists in 1947.

His wife, Hilda, was a “highly respected” lawyer with “high-end clientele and possible intelligence connections.”

Bragalia pressed the claim of authenticity of the photos, based on the argument that what is known about the couple confirms that they were of “highest integrity… with no propensity to prank.”

    “This is a couple who were of the highest integrity. And both had contacts and activities that could have fortuitously enabled them to obtain these slides.”

Dew said his friend’s sister found the slides while cleaning out the couple’s house. She found a chest of old Kodachrome slides in the attic, and decided to keep it in her garage. She kept them for about 10 years without bothering to look at them. But when she finally looked at them, she found that they contained photos of places from different parts of the world and famous people, including President Dwight Eisenhower and Clark Gable.

But she also discovered two Kodachrome slides carefully wrapped up in an envelope hidden in the inner lining of the chest’s lid. She found that the slides had images of strange looking beings. She showed the photos to her brother, who showed them to Dew. Dew explained that because the film looked genuine, he took them to Carey and his partner Don Schmitt, both UFO researchers.


 
Militares Viajaron a la Época de Jesús / Army men Traveled to the time of Jesus (English Sub)

As part of their investigation to confirm the authenticity of the slides, Carey and his partner contacted a Kodak specialist who verified that the slides were Kodak slides manufactured in 1947 and that the sleeves were the type used by Kodak in the mid-1940s.

Describing the aliens, Carey said the slides show “formerly living” frail-looking humanoids about three-and-a-half to four feet in height. The creatures have big heads and a pair of spindly arms and legs. A slide shows one of the aliens headless and partly dissected.

    “Professionals from a range of disciplines who have seen the slides agree that they depict a small humanoid creature –a formerly living thing- that is neither a prop nor a genetically defective human.”

    “And importantly, the being that is shown in the slides does not correlate whatsoever to the depictions of aliens extant in the popular culture of the 1940s.”

Schmitt told the audience that the photos were an earthshaking discovery.

    “It will certainly be the most important event in our lifetimes, because we are demonstrating, not only photographic evidence, but we are also demonstrating what all of these witnesses have reported to us over all of these years.”

But as Open Mind’s Rojas notes, it remains to be seen whether the actual slides would fulfill the promise of the pre-release hype.

NASA: We'll find alien life in 10 to 20 years

A re we alone in the universe? Top NASA scientists say the answer is almost certainly “no.”

"I believe we are going to have strong indications of life beyond Earth in the next decade and definitive evidence in the next 10 to 20 years," Ellen Stofan, chief scientist for NASA, said at a public panel Tuesday in Washington.

"We know where to look, we know how to look, and in most cases we have the technology," she said.

Jeffery Newmark, interim director of heliophysics at the agency put it this way: "It's definitely not an if, it's a when."

However, if visions of alien invasions are dancing in your head, you can let those go.

"We are not talking about little green men," Stofan said. "We are talking about little microbes."

Over the course of an hourlong presentation, NASA leaders described a flurry of recent discoveries that suggest we are closer than ever to figuring out where we might find life in the solar system and beyond.

For example, Jim Green, director of planetary science at NASA, cited a study that analyzed the atmosphere above Mars' polar ice caps and suggests that 50% of the planet's northern hemisphere once had oceans up to a mile deep, and that it had that water for a long period of time -- up to 1.2 billion years.

"We think that long period of time is necessary for life to get more complex," Stofan said.

She added that getting human field geologists and astrobiologists on Mars would greatly improve the chances of finding fossils of past life on our nearest planetary neighbor.

Green also described another recent study that used measurements of aurora on Jupiter's moon Ganymede to prove it has a large liquid ocean beneath its icy crust.

The findings suggest that previous ideas about where to find "habitable zones" may have been too limited. (A body considered to in a habitable zone is not too hot or too cold for liquid water to exist on its surface.)

"We now recognize that habitable zones are not just around stars, they can be around giant planets too," Green said. "We are finding out the solar system is really a soggy place."

He also talked NASA's plans for a mission to Europa, another moon of Jupiter with an icy ocean.

"I don’t know what we are going to find there," he said.

Newmark described how NASA is learning more about the role of Earth's magnetic field in protecting our planet's water and atmosphere from being blown away by the solar wind, thereby playing a role in the ability for life to develop.

"Mars does not have a significant magnetic field, so it lets the wind strip away the water and atmosphere," he said.

Paul Hertz, director of astrophysics at NASA, talked about how future telescopes already in the works will help scientists scan the atmospheres of large rocky planets around distant stars for chemical markers of life.

"We are not just studying water and habitability in our solar system, but also looking for it in planets around other stars," he said.

NASA associate administrator John Grunsfeld, said part of what excites him most about the search for life beyond our planet is to see what that life looks like.

"Once we get beyond Mars, which formed from the same stuff as Earth, the likelihood that life is similar to what we find on this planet is very low," he said.

Grunsfeld said he believes that life beyond Earth will be found by the next generation of scientists and space explorers, but Green said he hopes it is sooner than that.

"The science community is making enormous progress," he said. "And I've told my team I'm planning to be the director of planetary science when we discover life in the solar system."

‘Alien’ in Roswell Slides is actually a mummified child



Last week, UFO researchers claimed to have made a miraculous discovery – sixty-year-old slides showing a tiny alien being transported from the site of the Roswell crash in 1947.

An arena full of people in Mexico paid to watch the unveiling of the Roswell Slides – and thousands more tuned in around the world.

Billed as the big reveal which ‘proved aliens existed,’ the event created massive publicity around the world.

This week, keen-eyed internet detectives applied an image processing programme, Smart Deblur to one of the images, and found a placard which seems to say, ‘Mummified Body of Two Year Old Boy.’

Further down are words which seem to say, ‘San Francisco Museum’.

This, as UFO researchers might put it, really is a ‘smoking gun’.

Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, says, ‘The slides are genuine images of a museum exhibit that have been erroneously been linked to Roswell and aliens. It is a shame this has tarnished the reputation of all the so-called experts who attended this event.
‘This must be considered the lowest point UFO research has ever descended to, but it won’t stop some saying that this was deliberately staged to undermine ufology, or from others believing these are images of an alien whatever anyone says.’



UFO sceptic site Bad UFOs said, ‘There is now no doubt whatsoever that the “Roswell alien” is, in fact, the mummy of a child, exactly as many researchers suggested.

‘Of course, Jaime Maussan, who orchestrated the Mexico City extravaganza, insisted that it could not be a mummy, and far too many people believed him.’

The slides – on Kodachrome film – were shown off by a team headed by Dr Edgar Mitchell, an astronaut who walked on the moon.

Many UFO enthusiasts believe that the U.S. government found a crashed alien vehicle at the site in 1947.

The slides were supposedly taken by Bernerd A. Ray, an oil exploration geologist who worked near Roswell in the 1940s.

Pope Francis To Announce Church Preparing For Alien Contact This Week
Daniel P. Sheehan says Catholic Church will disclose Aliens


A new internet rumour that Pope Francis is about disclose information that they are preparing for Alien  contact on the 15 June 2015. But is this really true? Well according to Daniel P. Sheehan, a Harvard College trained American Government  & Foreign Policy Scholar, we are about to receive announcement about the ET presence very soon. via Ghost Diaries

Sheehan, who was one of the main speakers at this weekend Ufology conference 'Contact In The Desert' held last weekend at Joshua Tree, California US, has made some pretty fantastic statements.

SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO

According to Daniel Sheehan, the Catholic Church is now actively preparing for the discovery of Alien contact with highly a advanced alien species. Speaking at contact in the desert, he told of a what will be a historic papal encyclical decree calling for nothing less than the disassembly of the power structures that are destroying our civilisation and preventing us from joining an enlightened galactic community.

Pope Francis  previously caused quite a stir last year when he announced that he would baptise Aliens, quite a statement and a timely one at that given the fact the Vatican owns the biggest telescope on the planet.

Former Minsitry Of Defence Nick Pope Told Neon Nettle: "It's no secret that the Catholic Church has been repositioning themselves on this issue over the past few years. Do they know something? I doubt it. I think they're just trying to ensure that if the scientific community announces the discovery of extraterrestrial life, the church is prepared."

Sheehan's talk began with a summary of his previous work as an advocate for alien disclosure which, he says, also included classified sections from Project Bluebook (a study into UFO's by the American airforce). He went on to say that his access to Bluebook gave him exposure to photographic evidence of crashes UFO's that had Alien symbols on them.

Sheehan also described why Pope Francis wants to avoid the magnitude of chaos that took over the catholic church when Galileo announced that earth was not the center of the Universe. He continued that Pope Francis wants to position the Catholic church and the jesuit order to be able to accept major shift in human consciousness a result of Alien existance as well as the evolution of a 6th faculty of human consciousness. The 6th faculty will constitute a new form of religion and contact between humans and advanced telepathic aliens.

So in a nutshell? Well, from what Sheehan had just described, it looks like the largest single religious denomination on Earth is now mobilising for the disclosure of E.T's. If that is indeed the case, then it's pretty damn exiting.

NASA Employees: Huge Alien Structures And UFOs On Dark, Far Side Of Moon [Video]

Online UFO enthusiasts and conspiracy theorists have for long accused NASA of covering up evidence of existence of UFOs and massive alien structures on the dark far side of the Moon. Mars anomaly hunters have made similar claims about the planet Mars since NASA’s Opportunity and Curiosity rovers began sending to Earth photographs of the Martian terrain.

The conviction shared widely in the online UFO and alien community is that NASA is hiding the evidence because the U.S. government has entered into secret alliances with certain alien races or species to share advanced technological knowledge.

But UFO enthusiasts claim that the carefully guarded secrets of the U.S. government are being exposed in the 21st century era of the Internet where information is readily available and shared.

Online UFOlogists have made claims ranging from ordinary and mundane to bizarre and even absurd claims of UFO and alien sightings linked with the International Space Station, the Moon, and Mars.

But probably what has been the mainstay of the conviction among UFO enthusiasts that NASA is indeed hiding information about its knowledge of aliens and UFOs comes from testimonies and confessions by former top ranking civil and military officials.

Some NASA employees have also made stunning disclosures that NASA is hiding information about its knowledge of alien UFOs and about astronauts having direct contact with aliens.



The video above, uploaded to YouTube in July 2009 by YouTube user New World Horizon, purports to show a former U.S. Air force official, Sergeant Karl Wolf, and Ms. Donna Hare, a former NASA employee, saying before the national press club that they saw NASA photographs showing “huge alien structures” on the dark side of the Moon and UFOs flying around or parked on the lunar surface.

    “Eyewitness testimony from Ex Airforce Military. There are huge alien structures on the dark side of the moon. Many of the astronauts have seen these and NASA is covering it up, because ‘We don’t need to know.'”

Below is the full version of the video posted to YouTube in February, 2006 by YouTube user Alexx Thompson.



    “A large number of ex high ranking officials… people who had access to very sensitive document… lieutenants, ex commanders in the U.S. air force, astronauts, etc… all going before the national press club to discuss what their experiences have been regarding UFOs and all are willing to go before congress to testify under oath…”

Since the video was posted online, other former government officials and NASA employees have made UFO and alien disclosures.


NASA Apollo 16 Photograph Of The Far Side Of The Moon, April, 1972

The Inquistr recently reported the case of a former NASA employee, Clark C. McClelland, who, on July 29, 2008, posted a story to his website in which he claimed he saw a 9-foot-tall alien standing and talking with NASA astronauts in the Space Shuttle Payload Bay during a Space Shuttle mission he monitored from the Kennedy Space Center.

A YouTube UFO hunter recently reported spotting a flying saucer parked on the lunar surface in an old NASA clip from the 1971 Apollo 15 mission.

The film was shot by NASA astronaut Jim Irwin.

UFO hunter Paranormal Crucible claimed that the UFO was observing the Apollo 15 Moon landing.



The video below, posted to YouTube in June 2010 by YouTube user Microserf2001, purports to show alien structures from the Zeeman crater on the far side of the moon. According to UFO Sighting’s Dailly’s Scot Warring, the images may be viewed on Google Moon by entering the coordinates Long: 73° 08′ 30 S Lat: 145° 40′ 40 W.



    “Here is a video which depicts a massive rectangular shaped impression into the dark side of the moon, accompanied with straight raised tier and terraces. This massive structure is situated right next to the Zeeman Crater. Unfortunately, the most recent images we get from NASA have been air brushed, but the original one’s from the 1960′s clearly show this object in this video…”

The belief that recent images of the Zeeman crater were air brushed by NASA staff is widely shared in the online UFO community, but the Inquisitr is unable to verify the claim.

Area 51 and extra-terrestrial life both exist, says head of Nasa
Nasa Administrator Major Charles Frank Bolden Jr said that alien life does exist, but it is not being kept secret in Area 51


 Extra-terrestrial life does exist, the head of Nasa has confirmed, but said aliens were not hidden in Area 51.

Nasa Administrator Major Charles Bolden told British schoolchildren that he was confident that scientists would find life outside of Earth because there were so many planets that are similar to our own.

Asked by 10-year-old Carmen Dearing if he believed in aliens, he said: "I do believe that we will someday find other forms of life or a form of life, if not in our solar system then in some of the other solar systems - the billions of solar systems in the universe.

 “Today we know that there are literally thousands, if not millions of other planets, many of which may be very similar to our own earth. So some of us, many of us believe that we're going to find...evidence that there is life elsewhere in the universe."

Major Bolden also admitted that Area 51 existed but said the US government was not hiding alien life there.

“There is an Area 51,” he said. “It’s not what many people think. I’ve been to a place called that but it’s a normal research and development place. I never saw any aliens or alien spacecraft or anything when I was there.

“It think because of the secrecy of the aeronautics research that goes on there it’s ripe for people to talk about aliens being there.”

 The existence of Area 51, has been a badly kept secret for decades and it has fuelled the imaginations of conspiracy theorists and UFO hunters around the world

In 2013 the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) acknowledged its exact location in Nevada, near Groom Lake, in a series of documents released as part of a Freedom of Information request.

The documents describe how the facility had been used during the Second World War as an aerial gunnery for the Army Air Corp pilots.

President Dwight Eisenhower later approved “this strip of wasteland, known by its map designation as Area 51, to the Atomic Energy Commissions Nevada test site and training range. It then became central in the development of the U-2 spy plane.

 Major Bolden also said that one of the main reasons humans have not yet landed on Mars was down to the lack of adequate toilet facilities.

Nasa is hoping to send humans to Mars in the 2030s but said there were technological hurdles that still needed to be overcome.

 “The goal is to have us there in the early 30s. They won’t land, they’ll probably do an orbital mission like the first time we went to the Moon. We’ve got to get the Martian surface ready for human habitation.

“We’re not going to send humans down to the surface of Mars to build the habitats, the houses, we’re probably going to use robots.

“Our technical abilities are not what we want it to be now. We need better life support systems, we need a toilet that’s not going to break on the way there, then when we get to the Martian surface we need (a toilet) that’s going to work over and over again. Toilets are a big deal.”

 Major Bolden was also asked if he became frustrated by conspiracy theorists who claimed the Moon landing was faked.

“I understand people have doubts,” he said. “I have no doubts we went to the moon and I have no doubts that we're going to mars in your lifetime.”

Mr Bolden was answering questions for the children’s newspaper First News show Hotseat which is broadcast on Sky News.

EXCLUSIVE: MOD to release UK's top secret UFO 'X-Files' that 'could prove aliens exist'

CONFIDENTIAL government reports into Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) sightings - dubbed the "British X-Files" - could be made publicly available within EIGHT months.

The major boost for alien hunters can be exclusively revealed by Express.co.uk on World UFO Day, which campaigners are using to call for the release of all such records globally.

UFO researchers, backed by House of Lords peer, have been fighting for the release of 18 top secret Ministry of Defence (MoD) files about UFO sightings from more than 30 years ago.

The Government faced claims of a cover-up from conspiracy theorists when their release was stalled at the end of 2013.

Some investigators claim the files could provide key evidence of extra-terrestrial life visiting the UK and of specific information about famous controversial sightings such as the Rendlesham Forest incident - a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights and the alleged landing of one or more craft in Suffolk in late December 1980.

Lord Black of Brentwood, who asked the Government for an update through a Parliamentary question, was assured yesterday - the day before World UFO day - the files would be released by the MoD to the National Archives by March next year.

Alien hunters are confident these records could prove if extra-terrestrial life actually exists, as these were the most secretive files held in the private offices of various Cabinet ministers.

Although the files are being released to the National Archives, it is not yet clear when they will be available for public inspection.

In his Parliamentary question, Lord Black asked: "In relation to the 18 Ministry of Defence files on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) that have yet to be released to the public, what is the originating division of the file reference M9/18; what is the remit of that division in relation to UAP; and what is their latest estimate of when the 18 files will be passed to the National Archives, and then released to the public."

Defence Minister Earl Howe replied: "The originating branch of file reference MO9/18 relates to ministers' private offices. The latest estimate of when the 18 files will be delivered to the National Archives is before March 2016.

"The National Archives will make the necessary judgement about when they release these files to the public."

A number of older UFO files held by the UK government have already been released, including details of sightings by officials and police.

Nick Pope, who used to investigate the existence of UFOs for the MoD, said the files should contain some fascinating sightings.

However, referring to what is often called the most famous UFO claim in history - sparked by claims an alien spaceship crashed in New Mexico, US, in 1947 - Mr Pope added the soon-to-be-released files are probably not a "UK Roswell-style UFO in a hangar style cover up".

When the release of the files were stalled in 2014, which the MoD blamed on "additional processing requirements", Mr Pope sympathised with alien researchers.

He said at the time: "This massive delay will have conspiracy theorists up in arms. It looks like the MoD is stalling.

"The suspicion will be that there's a bombshell in these files and that the Ministry does not know how to handle it.

"I can understand why conspiracy theorists will be angry and suspicious."

Mr Pope worked at the MoD for 21 years, but was specifically assigned to investigate UFOs for a three-year period.

He told Express.co.uk today: "Coincidentally, to World UFO Day, the government just announced the date for the release of the final batch of Ministry of Defence UFO files.

"The fact that there is a World UFO Day shows the public's ongoing fascination with one of the great mysteries of our time. Having worked on the MoD's UFO project I'm sorry to say that we don't have any crashed spaceships hidden away in some RAF hangar, as some believe, but we do have some fascinating and unexplained cases in our files."

    The latest estimate of when the 18 files will be delivered to the National Archives is before March 2016.

Today's World UFO Day is the fifteenth to be held on the anniversary of the Roswell mystery, when a UFO was alleged to have crashed near Roswell in New Mexico in July 1947, before being squirelled away by the military with aliens still inside the craft.

It is then claimed officials covered up the spacecraft's crash as being a downed weather balloon.

The 'Redlesham Forest incident', which is alleged to have taken place near RAF Woodbridge, Suffolk, in 1980, saw US Airman First Class John Burroughs, who was stationed there, exposed to radiation after a mystery "UFO visitation".

He has since won damages from the American military, but still wants answers about what happened and hopes they will be in the new files.

Pat Frascogna, his lawyer, said: "We know there is information contained in these MoD files about the Rendlesham Forest incident because the MoD clearly indicated so in responding to a Freedom of Information request by John Burroughs last year."

UFO hunters are keeping their eyes firmly on the skies today and tonight to celebrate the global fascination with the flying saucer.

According to the World UFO Day website, it is dedicated to "raising awareness about the undoubted existence of UFO’s and with that intelligent beings from outer space."

It is also part of a campaign to get international governments to "declassify" their so-called confidential "X-Files" on UFO sightings throughout their history.

The $100 million question: are we alone in the cosmos?

Scientists are about to embark on the biggest search yet for alien life, sweeping the skies for signals of civilizations beyond our solar system with $100 million from a Russian billionaire and the backing of physicist Stephen Hawking.

Whether we are alone in the universe has engaged minds down the ages, and the recent discovery that there may be tens of billions of habitable planets in our galaxy alone has added urgency to finding an answer.

"There is no bigger question. It’s time to commit to finding the answer - to search for life beyond Earth," Hawking told reporters at the program's launch in London on Monday.

Some of the world's largest radio telescopes will be used to scan for distinctive radio signals that could indicate the existence of intelligent life.

Astronomers will listen to signals from the million star systems nearest to Earth and the 100 closest galaxies, although they do not yet plan to send messages back into space.

Hawking said some form of simple life on other worlds seemed very likely, but the existence of intelligence was another matter, and humankind needed to think hard about making contact.

"A civilization reading one of our messages could be billions of years ahead. If so, they will be vastly more powerful and may not see us as any more valuable than we see bacteria," he said.

The 10-year project, dubbed Breakthrough Listen, is funded by Russian Internet entrepreneur Yuri Milner, himself a physicist by training, who made his fortune from savvy early investments in startups such as Facebook Inc.

He said he aimed to bring a Silicon Valley approach to "the most interesting technological question of our day".

Milner became fascinated by the notion of extraterrestrial life after reading astrophysicist Carl Sagan's "Intelligent Life in the Universe" as a 10-year-old in Moscow.

He believes other civilizations could teach us how to handle challenges such as allocating natural resources, he said in an interview. And if we don't find them, we can learn other lessons.

"If we're alone, we need to cherish what we have," he said. "The message is, the universe has no backup."

The new project dwarfs anything else in the field, known by the acronym SETI for the "search for extraterrestrial intelligence". Globally, less than $2 million annually is spent on SETI, said Dan Werthimer, an adviser to Milner's project who directs the SETI@home program affiliated with the University of California in Berkeley, which asks volunteers to run software on their home computers to analyze data.

MORE BANG PER BUCK

Today, due to technology improvements, including in computing power and telescope sensitivity, $100 million will go much farther than in the early 1990s, the last time SETI had significant funding.

The advances allow scientists to monitor several billion radio frequencies at a time, instead of several million, and to search 10 times more sky than in the early 1990s.

Any signals the scientists detect will have been created years ago, perhaps even centuries or millennia earlier. Radio signals take four years simply to travel between Earth and the nearest star outside our solar system.

Breakthrough Listen will book time at radio telescopes, including at Australia's Parkes Observatory in New South Wales and the Radio Astronomy Observatory in Green Bank, West Virginia. Milner plans to book about two months a year at each site, a boon to scientists who normally might get two days a year on the telescopes.

The team, led by scientists such as Peter Worden, who until earlier this year directed the NASA Ames Research Center, will organize the radio signals they find, make the data public, and examine it for patterns.

The goal lies less in understanding the signals than in establishing whether they were created by intelligent life rather than natural phenomena.

Scientists say the fact that humans have developed radio signaling makes it a good bet that others may use it as well.

"It doesn't tell you anything about the civilization, but it tells you a civilization is there," said Frank Drake, another of the project's supporters.

Drake, together with Sagan, sent the first physical message into space in 1972, the Pioneer plaques on board the Pioneer 10 U.S. spacecraft.

In addition to checking for radio signals, Breakthrough Listen will hunt for light signals using a telescope at the Lick Observatory in California.
