Extraterrestrials and UFO Phenomena

SETI - Wrong Approach

2009-05-25T18:30:00.000-07:00

I've stated before that I felt the SETI is a failure by design.

My reasoning is quite simple. In order to receive a radio signal from another star where the transmitter is operating at any reasonable power level, highly direction antennas must be used at both the receiving and transmitting station aimed at each other in order to have enough gain for a signal to be strong enough to be detectable.

High gain antennas have a very narrow beam width requiring that they be precisely aimed.

The SETI protocol requires several steps of confirmation. When a candidate carrier signal is received, the antenna is first pointed away, if the signal is still present then it is a terrestrial interference source.

Next another station remotely located is contacted and ask to confirm the signal, if the signal is still present, and received by that second station, at that point it is known to be extraterrestrial in nature.

Then, only if the signal is still present a day later, is it considered a viable extraterrestrial signal.

The Earth rotates, it is also orbiting the Sun, the Sun is orbiting the galactic center of gravity, and the entire galaxy is moving with respect to other galaxies. There is also relative motion between the Sun and other stars within our own Galaxy.

Likewise, another planet around another star harboring an alien civilization, is also likely rotating, and is orbiting a star, and that star will have relative motion to our own Sun.

Thus the potential for two narrow beam high gain antennas to remain aimed at each other for five minutes, let alone 24 hours, is exceedingly small, unless, the transmitting civilization is intentionally beaming a signal towards Earth, is aware of our positions, and is compensating for relative motions.

This seems unlikely unless alien civilizations have a means of detecting our existence other than radio.

So that is the first reason SETI won't see anything even if the Universe is jam packed with advanced civilizations that still uses radio for communications.

There is another reason that SETI is unlikely to detect alien civilizations via their radio transmissions, and that is that the type of signal SETI is designed to detect is a type of signal that tends to be inefficient and thus not likely to be used in our own civilization much longer, let alone any more advanced civilization.

SETI only looks for very narrow band carriers, but carriers are a waste of energy, they are required only for proper decoding of a signal, and present day communications are leaning towards ultra-wide band spread spectrum techniques that would be completely undetectable by SETI.

Having a relatively small number of transmitters networked, as in wireless Internet, makes a lot more sense than having single transmitters for every type of program or transmission, and that seems also to be where we are headed.

So in addition to the antenna alignment over time issue, the design of the SETI receiver to detect only narrow band carrier signals combined with the direction in terms of use of radio that our own civilization seems to be taking, is another factor ruling out the likelihood that SETI will detect an alien signal.

The only signal we could detect, under existing SETI protocols, is one beamed intentionally at us, narrow band in nature, and lasting more than the 24 hour period required for confirmation.

Fusion Powered Single Stage to Orbit

2009-02-18T15:53:00.000-08:00

You will want to look at this document. I first found out about it on a mail list, Googled for content and found it on a public site that had a lot of questionable material so I thought it was hocum, but then I found it on a government military site at http://stinet.dtic.mil/cgi-bin/GetTRDoc?AD=ADA446973&Location=U2&doc=GetTRDoc.pdf.

The document is marked as being approved for public release, distribution unlimited (or else I wouldn't be posting here).

If I read the document correctly, the government has working aneutronic (clean no neutrons) dense focus plasma fusion technology already, has experimented with it, determined how much thrust as well as extra energy for electricity can be generated with various parameters; and expects to have single-stage to orbit space planes for low earth orbit by 2025 and beyond by 2050.

If this is the unclassified stuff they're willing to tell us about, what's the classified stuff?

If they've got this fusion source, it's clean (aneutronic), it's working, the "excess" power being as much as 5.1 gigawatts (that's equivalent to the output of maybe 7 or 8 nuclear fission reactors), why isn't this energy technology being deployed to meet our energy needs?

They also talk in this document about excess energy being deployed to power gravity or time-distorting devices. Why is all this advanced capability being kept from the public, or now that this document is released as unclassified, perhaps it's not?

I wish someone would share the game plan.

UFO Over Elliott Bay (Seattle)

2008-12-29T19:15:00.000-08:00

The UFO appears about three quarters of the way through this video. It's very brief but you can even see the light reflect off the water somewhat. More information is present on the Wicked Aliens website.

ET / UFO Recovery / Disposal Document

2008-12-29T05:04:00.000-08:00

I accidentally came across this document regarding recovery and disposal of ET/UFO crash site related materials.

On the one hand, I'm hard pressed to believe it's genuine because I don't believe such a classified document would remain on the Internet long enough for me to stumble across it.

On the other hand, someone went to a hell of a lot of trouble to create it if it's fictional. But then again, there is a lot of very convincing fiction out there.

You take a look and decide. I'd be curious to hear other peoples' comments, especially if you happen to know the true origin.

What Happened To The Aliens

2008-12-15T03:00:00.000-08:00

A couple of years ago the skies seemed full of alien ships, sightings were common, and that year, summer of 2006 seemed to be the last time any credible reports of alien abductions.

A recent Google search has revealed a lack of much in the way of sightings, let alone abductions. A search on the keywords "alien" or "UFO" seems to only bring up Hollywood and old references.

I would be inclined to think there were some sort of insidious censorship project going on if it were not for the fact that my own experience contradicts that.

For example, in a years time I photographed 'orbs' on three different occasions and a wedge shaped craft. Now, another year has passed and nothing, and it's not because I'm not out there looking. I keep my camera with me at all times and I'm always looking up, but I've seen nothing of interest lately.

For a while I was constantly getting reports of sightings from credible individuals, lately that has dwindled, and the few that I do receive have been mostly anonymous cranks.

And nobody has come to me and attempted to censor this blog. Post disinformation or just distractive idiocy to the comments section, yes, that happens all the time, but lately that's been about it.

If anyone can point me to anything current and reasonably credible I'm interested. I don't know what is happening but some major shift feels like it's underway.

Terraforming Earth

2008-11-25T18:10:00.000-08:00

Science and science fiction gives consideration to the idea of terraforming other planets to create habitats suitable for our own existence. Mars is usually considered to be the nearest reasonable candidate. It has things we need, water, minerals, a day very similar to that to which we are accustomed.

But we also have to acknowledge that Mars may not be dead. There may be at least bacterial life on Mars. Personally, I think the evidence for bacterial life is overwhelming, photographically, as well as the presence of methane and formaldehyde in the atmosphere, and the existence of everything we know that life requires, including evidence for the existence of liquid water, possibly quite highly saline, but not beyond the point where some Earth bacteria could survive.

If and when our technology evolves to the point where terraforming Mars is not only doable, because arguably it is doable now, but affordable, say less than the cost of a US financial system bail-out after eight years of Bush administration, do you think the presence of native bacteria would even slow us down, even if we knew changing the conditions to more Earth-like conditions would exterminate it?

Now imagine a civilization several hundred million or even a billion or two years more advanced than ours considering our rock as a new speck of land to colonize, but needing a little fine tuning. Would they even notice our existence, and if they did would they have any moral objections to our elimination?

With all the current day strangeness, I am beginning to wonder if this isn't in fact a work in progress. If our planet isn't being terraformed out from under us right now?

The things our government does, the things the super rich and powerful do, seem to make no sense in a human context, but perhaps that's just it, perhaps they're not human. In that context, the last eight years makes perfect sense.

I've noticed a phenomenal change in the whole UFO scene lately. I'm not hearing of any current abductions. I haven't heard of any since the summer of 2006. And it was about then that I first photographed "orbs" although they had made appearances earlier, the frequency of their sightings were relatively small.

One of two things must be true; either they are hear to stop the abductions, or, the whole ET hybrid project is completed and they are now ready to replace us, and perhaps they've already started with our leaders. That would explain, for example, the McCain tongue.

I'm certain that great changes are underway. To what degree they are man-made, natural, God getting ready to remodel or perhaps reboot, or alien induced, I'm not sure. I'm sure they're happening though.

Every time I turn on the television though, especially the news, I'm convinced it's aliens. It's just real difficult to make sense of today's world in any other context.

So perhaps aliens thrive in a warmer environment with a carbon dioxide rich atmosphere and a nice nuclear radiation background glow gives them a nice tan. Actually, I don't always feel this way, just a little cynical at the moment.

Are We Geting Ready?

2008-11-15T03:05:00.000-08:00

With the recent release of UFO documents by the British government, I can't help but wonder about a couple of things.

First, does the military have shit for brains? They've got instances of pilots being ordered to fire missiles at objects a mile across. Maybe it's just me but that seems like shooting a spit wad at a guy carrying an Uzi. Ill advised, to say the least.

My unwillingness to believe the military is that dumb then leads me to doubt the veracity of the stories even if they came directly from the government, or perhaps especially because they came directly from the government.

Which leads me to the second thought. Many years ago, back in the 80's some time, I was shown a VHS video tape of a lecture given by some x-military officer. I don't remember the rank or name but it was something kind of mid-level.

The tape covered a conspiracy theory that is pretty much standard Internet lore these days, was pretty much standard BBS lore in those days, and because of that I pretty much blew it off.

Some of the predictions it made, some of the specifics of how this conspiracy would be carried out, have proven to be surprisingly accurate to the point where now I am beginning to wonder if there was not some basis in fact.

The basic idea is that a group of super elite powerful people want to control us and ultimately to reduce the human population to somewhere between 250 and 500 million.

They already in fact controlled us through basically the same mechanism outlined in the book, "1984". And we had pretty much that although it was largely a cold war and not a shooting war. Occasionally we would have skirmishes on some third world countries territory.

But the tape said that in time the credibility of the Soviet threat would be lost and we would then need a new threat to keep us in line and that threat would be terrorism. And it would be a better threat because of it's nebulous nature. You could never really win and thus it would be credible longer. You didn't really know where your enemy was and this would justify controlling and spying on everyone.

Eventually though, terrorism would lose credibility as well, and we'd need a new threat, and that threat would come in the form of a faked UFO invasion. It would be carried out not by extraterrestrials but by this group. They had various names, the Illuminati, etc. The name really isn't important, just think super rich and powerful with wealth and power having been handed down through generations tracing their way all the way back to ancient Egypt.

When this faked invasion happens, don't ignore it because you know it's fake, because they really do want to kill you. That part is real; it's just that it's domestically originated fake aliens that want to kill you not genuine extraterrestrials.

Some years past and the Berlin wall did fall, and the Soviet Union broke up and Germany re-unified.

Then we had 9/11 which very clearly was not just a couple of 747's slamming into the twin towers. Anybody who has watched a controlled implosion demolition knows that is exactly what that was. You can see the poof of the explosives just before each floor falls. It fell symmetrically. If burning jet fuel had heated the steel to the point of failure, it would not have been symmetrical.

The New York fire department was forced to clean it up before a proper investigation could be done. I have spoken to fireman who were threatened in order to force them to do the job fast. The FBI confiscated hundreds of photos and threatened witnesses to keep their mouths shut. Still, they didn't get them all and some witnesses did talk.

Later we find that the aircraft that were supposedly used for those flights, their serial numbers are still in service; and some of the people supposedly involved in the hijacking, they're still alive and weren't even in the country at the time.

Now people are beginning to question the way the Bush administration completely raped the constitution.

Meanwhile, first the French government and then more recently Britain release their UFO data, Britain is still in the process. But what has been released suggests the military is well aware of the phenomena but some of the stories are just very difficult to believe.

So I can't help but wonder if this isn't just preparation for an impending fake invasion. When the laser beams start to fly I'm planning on hiding. Maybe it would be a good time to stock up on surface to air missiles.

Michio Kaku on Alien Secrecy

2008-10-30T03:05:00.000-07:00

Michio Kaku Alien life Top Secret UFO coast2coast

Michio Kaku talks about what would happen if SETI did discover unambiguous alien communications.

Personally, I think it's moot because as I've stated before, the SETI protocol for confirmation makes discovery of alien communications impossible.

To recant; SETI first listens to very narrow band channels, thus it is unable to detect modulation or sidebands, it is only capable of detecting carriers. Most of our modern communications is moving away from simple modulated carriers into modulation schemes that spread the information out across a very broad bandwidth because these schemes make the most efficient use of bandwidth, power, and are most immune to interference.

SETI would not be able to receive any information transmitted and with our most modern communications it wouldn't register anything at all except perhaps a slight rise in background noise.

But in addition to that problem, even with huge amounts of power, with the distances involved, a signal could only be received with very high gain (dish) antennas pointed directly at each other.

Because the Earth is rotating, and orbiting a star that is orbiting in a galaxy, and the galaxy itself has motion relative to other galaxies, and because the distant transmission would likely also be on an planet that is rotating, orbiting a star, which is orbiting in a galaxy that has motion relative to our own, any chance alignment of two high gain antennas would be brief.

But SETI protocol is as follows:

1) A candidate signal is received.

2) The antenna is pointed off a few degrees to confirm that the signal is indeed from space and not terrestrial interference. If the signal goes away then the antenna is pointed back to the original location and the signal is looked for again. The beam width of the antennas is probably sufficient to allow this step to be completed.

3) Another site distant on the Earth is notified to look for the signal. This serves to eliminate sources near Earth from Earth orbiting satellites. Although a catalog of known signals is used to first eliminate signals originating from satellites, the military does not publish all of the signals it's satellites generate and therefore this process is necessary. This will necessarily take some time and there is a strong likelihood that the antennas will no longer be mutually aligned by the time it is completed.

4) Assuming by some miracle that step 3 is completed; the next thing that SETI does is wait a day and then look in the same place. By now surely any chance alignment that existed will be gone and no signal will be found.

The ONLY way that SETI will detect an alien signal is if they crash a saucer into the building or aliens are intentionally beaming a signal specifically at us and keep re-aligning their antenna to track the movement of Earth relative to their position.

Given all of these variables, I don't think SETI is ever likely to detect anything making what they do after detection entirely moot.

That said; SETI has detected some signals that appear to be extraterrestrial and not possessing characteristics of any known natural objects, but none of them were observable the next day thus none passed SETI protocol requirements.

There are many natural sources of radio waves, such as hydrogen gas MASARs (a microwave analog of a LASER), that, with a receiver only capable of listening to an extremely narrow bandwidth, would be very difficult to discerne from any artificial source.

UForth Guide to UFO Shapes and Configurations

2008-06-22T02:00:00.001-07:00

I've added a new site to the resource links on the sidebar, UForth, A World Guide to UFO Shapes and Configurations. I stumbled across this site while looking for information on Orb or Sphere type UFOs which are of particular interest to me because I've photographed them on three occasions and because credible reports of UFO abduction cases seem to have stopped about the same time these started showing up in large numbers, in the late summer of 2006.

This site categorizes various UFO shapes and provides some information about what is known about various types. It has some fairly good photographs and is a good resource to go look at if you spot something and want to find out of if someone might have photographed something like what you just saw.

Further Analysis - Unidentified Fixed Object

2008-06-21T19:12:00.000-07:00

In an attempt to improve the signal to noise ratio on the image and hopefully see more detail, I overlaid the three good images so that the signals would add and some of the noise would average out.

This allowed me to brighten the dark area a bit and then I did some digital signal noise reduction on it to try to further see details in the noise.

A couple of things became apparent; the UFO hadn't moved AT ALL between the three images, they lined up exactly, when the background lined up, so did the UFO.

Second, with the background slightly less noisy I could see some dark details. As I brought the brightness up slightly, it looks to me like that object just might be the roof of an A-frame house or building. It is barely discernible, so much so that I can't be sure, but I think I'm seeing a building there.

So this might be just a metallic roof on a building that happened to be at just the right angle to reflect sunlight back at me and not so interesting after all.

UFO Over Puget Sound 8/20/2008 7:53PM

2008-06-20T22:43:00.000-07:00

This is the first UFO photographs I've captured this year and not for lack of trying but whereas last year, orbs seemed to be everywhere, they seem to be making themselves scarce this year. This object, not an orb, no idea what it is.

I stopped at Richmond Beach and saw something glinting in the sun across Puget Sound from where I was. It was almost directly in line with the Sun and so the reflection of sunlight off the water was very bright making everything else appear dark. This object was also highly reflective and had a gold color to it.

The object slowly drifted from the left to the right (south to north) and appeared to kind of shift in shape as it moved, but as you can see from the water, there was enough warmth to cause turbulence in the atmosphere distorting the object so the change in shape could have been just due to atmospheric distortion.

I got four images of this object but the last one wasn't very good quality because the lens on my camera has bad chromatic aberration near the periphery of the frame and the last image has the object near the periphery.

Below are 600x480 crops from the original images, (full resolution) to see the full image click on the cropped image. Also please note the date in images are off by one hour as I set the camera during the winter and it does not automatically adjust to Daylight Savings Time.

For comparison here is a photograph of a sailboat taken from the same location across the Puget Sound, this more to the north where the sun isn't lighting up the water as much as is actually slightly closer but it gives you an idea of the relative scale and the clarity of a familiar object.

The boat is at perhaps three quarters the distance as the other object. This was taken from the same location just minutes later in order to provide some frame of reference. The water is darker and what appears to be the sky behind brighter because the boat was to the north of the UFO and not in line with the sun. Also note what appears to be the sky above the tree line is actually the Olympic mountains largely obscured by really bad haze today.

Make of it what you will because I don't know what to make of it other than it's not an airplane or helicopter. I'd really like to know if others saw this; if you were on the west side of the sound you might have been able to get a much closer look at it.

Roswell UFO Festival

2008-05-06T19:02:00.000-07:00

ROSWELL, NM:

The city of Roswell invites UFO enthusiasts and skeptics alike to join in the celebration of one of the most debated incidents in history this July 3-6 2008. The four-day event will feature guest speakers, authors, live entertainment, family-friendly activities, and possibly an alien abduction.

The city is expecting more than 50,000 visitors during the festival and guests are encouraged to make travel arrangements early. Links to accommodations, an event schedule, and more in depth information can be found at the new festival website www.ufofestivalroswell.com.

In early July, 1947, a mysterious object crashed on a ranch 30 miles north of Roswell. The Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF) issued a statement claiming to have recovered a crashed flying disk. An article ran on the front page of the Roswell Daily Record and the next day, RAAF changed its' statement to say that the object
was a weather balloon, not a flying disk as they previously reported. This revised statement sparked immediate controversy and has continued to be a topic of debate more than 60 years later.

During The Amazing Roswell UFO Festival, guests can visit alien attractions, attend lectures and book signings, and help uncover the truth about one of the most infamous cover-ups in history. Media passes are available now. Contact Alexis Kerschner at media@ufofestivalroswell.com to get your passes. For more information about the festival, visit www.ufofestivalroswell.com.

Slow Flames Moving Across Sky

2008-04-27T01:34:00.000-07:00

In the summer of 2006, I photographed a silver spherical object, and then over the next year, I photographed similar objects several additional times, in one event a group of six of them. Then I was contacted by someone in Surrey BC Canada who was regularly photographing and observing them, then by someone in Portland Oregon that videoed one for almost half an hour, and then I started finding these in Google satellite imagery, and photographs started popping up from populated regions all over the world. Coincident with these, the reports of alien abductions ceased.

Recently, another phenomena has started to appear and that is in the form of an orange flame slowly moving across the sky. Some people describe flames dripping off like burning plastic.

In the videos I've seen there is distinctly two or more flames attached. These appear much like a rocket exhaust except that if it were a rocket after that long of a burn it would have been accelerated to very high velocities but instead it just moves slowly across the sky. Also you can't see the source of the flame; it almost looks like a shuttle exhaust without the shuttle except that it's also missing most of the smoke.

If you do a search on youtube, you'll find there are videos of these from all over the world, not a phenomena specific to the United States.

So I'd like to encourage anyone who has seen, photographed, or videoed one of these to leave a comment or e-mail with the details. If someone out there happens to know what these are, please do say.

Alien Memories and Dreams

2008-04-03T03:04:00.000-07:00

I found this short article by Brad Steiger entitled, "Alien Memories and Dreams", very interesting in that the interviews with people seem to point to experiences in 1969, which is the same time frame that I had my encounter.

I do feel a bit left out though in that unlike many of the respondents, I have no memory of every being a UFO crew member, having lived on another planet in this life or a past life, of having seen crystal cities, etc.

However, I have had the feeling most of my life that I don't belong on this planet. People on this planet deny their nature rather than acknowledge it but try to adapt to the modern day environment. People on this planet are obsessed with money, power, and don't seem to care about the long term consequences. I feel totally out of sync with this planet, I don't feel that I belong here.

When I was in high school and in my early twenties, I knew someone who was a war correspondent in world world II. He was a very interesting individual; he made the claim everyone already knew everything on a subconscious level; and he offered pretty strong evidence by tossing questions at one of my less studious friends with no warning which he would at least start to answer correctly before correcting himself and saying, "I don't know that!", but he did know that, somehow.

This person had seen many human tragedies, he's seen what people do to each other in war, and although he himself was extremely talented at writing, and I think could have made a difference that way, he chose not to saying that, "Mankind wasn't worth saving.", though I think in his own way he was trying to save mankind by motivating youth to do so.

One of the things he mentioned was that crystals would become tremendously important in the future; he did not specify what type of crystal however. Now this article mentions that many of the people interviewed saw crystal cities.

I get the sense that something big is coming but I don't know exactly what. May ET will come take me to another planet. I feel like I'm just bashing my head against the wall on this one.

USO's

2008-03-11T06:47:00.000-07:00

Unidentified submerged objects, UFO's underwater. Stories of strange lights, sometimes in connection with lightning, sometimes not, spinning wheels of light underwater, sightings of crafts entering and leaving water, all indications that beings that come here from far away don't limit themselves to land.

It's not surprising that a species capable of navigating interstellar space can also navigate our oceans. Faster than Light travel involves a lot of potential complications, not the least of which is actually getting to and past light speed, thinking in conventional terms.

Let's assume for a moment that problem has been solved, then what? Navigation becomes interesting, we can't depend upon any electromagnetic signals for navigation as we'd outrun any originating from Earth, and any signals originating from our destination would be blue shifted incredibly.

Interstellar space is also anything but a perfect vacuum. Interstellar space has gas, dust, even an occasional rogue planet or black hole. There is an incredible amount of things to run into when traveling light years. If we could go faster than the speed of light in normal physical terms, how do we interact with matter that is moving faster than the speed of light relative to us? I know Einstein says it's not possible, but I've been aboard a craft that wasn't from Kansas, I know that it is.

I suspect the key to interstellar travel involves more than physical technology, I think it's a mind / spirit issue. Out of body, I can travel faster than the speed of light, but interestingly not infinitely fast, to go 40,000 light years takes subjectively about 15 seconds. When out of body, my intent is all it takes to bring me to my destination. Just think about going somewhere and I'm en-route. If it's relatively local, like Mars, I'm there, if its' 40,000 light years away, I travel for about 15 seconds, and it doesn't seem linear, I feel my weight go away, I feel acceleration, I see black, and then I'm there.

I suspect these craft operate in a similar manner, there was no physical controls, no furniture, no food storage or water storage, no sleep facilities, not even any chairs, the craft I encountered. Now, it has been pointed out to me that it may also just be a shuttle of sorts, with a mother ship waiting in orbit, but I don't believe that is the case. I am of the opinion that there are a variety of species coming here using a variety of technologies, so it may well be there are other craft that operate in this manner.

If, in this mode of travel, they do not interact with ordinary matter, then it follows that they may be capable not only of underwater operation, but even going right through the Earth or Jupiter, or the Sun.

I've read reports of people seeing craft cloaking or decloaking, and I've seen videos of this. And yes, I know what you can do with video production software and there is no shortage of video hoakum out there, but I've also seem some video that I feel was genuine, based both on looking at it frame by frame and really examining it closely, and based upon a gut feeling I get watching it, in one case, it seemed to trigger a memory that also invoked a great deal of fear, and yet, I can't pin it down.

So perhaps their cloaked state is somehow entering into the same state my soul or spirit or whatever it is that is me less my body, travels. Maybe their technology is one that understands the nature of the soul or spirit. The species I encountered wasn't the grays, but I do hear from people who claim they are interested in souls, but I don't know if this is really true or just the interpretations of people with fundamentalist religious bias, in other words, if they can't understand it in terms of their world view, it must be of Satan, then again, anal probes sound pretty Satanic.

I always wondered about where the idea that hell is down, heaven is up, came from. Granted, it's definitely hot as we move towards the Earth's center, so maybe the ancients looked at volcanoes spewing lava and thought it was hell leaking out. St. Helens definitely impressed me as being hellish; particularly the effect it had on Spirit Lake; I visited a week before it exploded, and then after saw the exact same location where we were. I could recognize the geography, that's how I knew it was the same place, but it was completely devoid of life, an instant moonscape.

Ah well, I don't know, wish these beings would come explain it all to me. Curious me is just bugged about this.

Joan Ocean and ET Friends

2008-03-11T06:19:00.000-07:00

I added a link to Joan Ocean and ET Friends, a site I ran across while doing a Google search for underwater ET phenomena.

Coast to Coast AM had a guest who talked about underwater UFO's and such. I became curious as to whether or not this sphere phenomena also manifests under water. I ran across some photos from Google Earth that looked like the sphere's from a distance but zoomed in they clearly had a more disk like structure rather than spherical.

Still I find it interesting in part because the craft I had an encounter with 40 years ago was similarly shaped, and in part because someone who had been involved in sonar mapping of the ocean floor decades ago had said something to me about encountering a disk structure deep under water. Interestingly, the disks that show up on Google Earth underwater are in shallow water.

Joan Ocean and ET Friends isn't what I was really looking for, I had hoped to find photographs, Joan talks to Dolphins and the site also features channeling. I have to say that's really not part of my personal experience, I've never channeled anyone nor known anyone who channeled. I did read Jane Robert's Seth material but that's about it.

However, I know my UFO encounter is as strange to people who haven't had one as ghosts and channeling are to me, so I don't dismiss it out of hand, I just try to look at the material and look at the message and not worry too much about the messenger.

Overall it is fairly well put together; the graphics are creative, and there are interesting accounts. It's another piece of the puzzle that's worth spending some time absorbing.

Terrible Secret Of Space

I realize this work by The Laziest Men On Earth, the same folks that did, "All Your Bases Are Belong To Us", from a poor translation in the video game Zero Wing is generally considered to be just a work of pop-art, but I think there is a real relevant truth buried in metaphors.

For example, you have "Red" and "Blue" robots, who refer to themselves as "Shover Robots" and "Pusher Robots", but the "Pusher Robots" shove an the "Shover Robots" pub.

Might the Red and Blue robots be metaphors for the Republican and Democratic parties? Both parties seem determined to protect us from the "Terrible Secret Of Space", no matter how much pain and suffering they inflict in the process.

UFO Activity

2008-02-11T03:03:00.000-08:00

The amount of e-mail I have been receiving lately with respect to UFO activity has been overwhelming. I haven't had time to look into each. Two types of reports I am receiving most frequently, the "orbs" and a fireball or plasma ball like sighting.

Orbs, like those I and others have photographed, continue to be reported from just about every corner of the planet with population centers. I am not receiving reports from areas with smaller populations but I don't know if that's because there are just fewer people to see them or because these orbs are only parked over major population centers.

The other type of reports I have received quite a few of are reports of flames moving slowly across the sky or plasma balls or glowing, usually orange, balls. I have seen video of the flames and they are most bizarre, appearing like the flames from a rocket, but no rocket is visible and they move very slowly across the sky, too slow to be something re-entering, and too slow to be a rocket.

I will post more details here as time allows. I welcome your comments an e-mail.

Stephensville UFO

2008-02-11T02:37:00.000-08:00

I'd really like to see better video of this. You can't discern anything about this UFO except that it has lights from this video. Reports from some of the people describe it as, "bigger than a Walmart", "a mile long", "a seamless metallic object", "a flying light show".

Up to this point it could be the Good Year blimp, but one hunter described it as taking off extremely fast and silently (blimps don't take off extremely fast).

There are several aspects of this sighting that seemed to involve cover up. Some witnesses said that when it returned it was chased by military jets. Initially the military said they had no jets in the air. A day later they say they had jets out on a training mission.

A reporter for the Stephensville Empire-Tribune, Angelia Joiner, found herself unemployed after publishing a story about military harassment of a Stephensville UFO witness. Her computer was confiscated, her Rolodex came up missing.

There was also some video shot of an object near the Stephensville airport making that was said to be making symbols in the air every half second, however, this video was shot by someone trying to use a porch post to stabilize their video camera and I can't find actual video which leads me to suspect that they may have been photographing a stable object and the "symbols" result from camera jitter. A lot of these hand-held video cameras have so much zoom that getting a stable image without a tripod of a distant object is virtually impossible. You can see the symbols on Earthfiles.com.

UFO Related E-mail

2008-01-23T05:39:00.000-08:00

I've received much e-mail recently and haven't had time to follow-up regularly but I felt it worth saying that the "Orb" phenomena is becoming very widespread. I have received e-mail from many locations around the world, though the Americas, north, sound, and central, still seem to be the most common.

Another phenomena that seems to be getting more common are these orange plasma or flame things. They look like a slowly, or occasionally rapidly, moving orange flame through the sky; almost like a rocket flame without the rocket, but they often are nearly stationary, not moving fast enough to be either a rocket or falling space debris.

UFO Orbs and Chemtrails - Strange Skies

2008-01-10T03:50:00.000-08:00

I stumbled across a website, Strange Skies, with some interesting photos, yet another case of these orbs being photographed although the focus of this site is chemtrails. I'm not really sure where I stand on the whole chemtrails thing; just about every photograph I've seen look like the same contrails I've been seeing for the last 40 years.

But the orbs, that's something I've now photographed on three separate occasions as well as having been in contact with several other people. They are photographed by people all over the world and even show up in Google satellite imagery.

This Strange Skies site draws connections between these orbs and chemtrails, but other than the fact that they both occupy the sky I'm not personally convinced that any direct connection exists. I don't know enough about the orbs to know a connection doesn't exist; I just don't find the evidence on this site convincing.

A connection may exist between UFO abductions and these orbs. The abductions essentially stopped at the same time the orbs became common place. Perhaps these orbs are interfering with the entities responsible for the abductions, or perhaps they are the next phase in some agenda. Whatever they are, they're wide spread and became noticeable just as the abduction phenomena came to a grinding halt.

At any rate; here are a few of the orb photos from the Strange Skies:

These are remarkably similar to objects that I have photographed in the skies just north of Seattle, Washington.

These also are remarkably similarly to photographs taken by people I've corresponded with in Surrey, BC, Canada, and Portland, Oregon. The first of these I photographed in Summer of 2006, which coincidentally is the last date I can find of any credible UFO abduction report.

If you have any information of these orbs, including video and photographs, I would like to hear from you.

Black Triangle UFO

2008-01-04T02:25:00.000-08:00

Black Triangle

The question of whether these are terrestrial or extraterrestrial in origin frequently comes up with most people believing we were incapable of creating craft with these performance characteristics. However, I have been told they are of terrestrial origin.

An X-coworker was in the national guard reserves. Once weekend each month he maintained electronics on these craft. He explained to me what they were, why they were created, and how they operate.

They are a nuclear fission powered aircraft with an infrared sensor bank and nearly infinite hover time.

They were created to monitor Soviet nuclear launches. Cloud cover frequently obscured satellite vision. Spy planes couldn't remain aloft over Soviet territory for more than a couple of hours at best. A craft was needed that could hover and remain in place for long durations.

An aircraft relying on petroleum based fuel can't carry enough fuel to remain aloft very long. Nuclear fission was a potential solution. However, earlier attempts at nuclear craft based on nuclear jets, Prometheus in particular, were dismal failures.

This craft is based upon an entirely different principal. It has an on board nuclear fission reactor similar to what you might see in a nuclear submarine.

This craft operates on the same principals as an MHD powered submarine, except since air is not normally conductive like seawater, it uses three plasma torches to ionize the air so it can then be directed by a magnetic field to provide propulsion. So instead of magneto-hydro-dynamics, you have magneto-plasma-dynamics. The same exact principals apply.

There are three plasma torches and jets, one at each point of the triangle, this forms a stable platform allowing the craft to hover a long time.

The magnetic coils used to propel the plasma are superconductive. It happens that the craft is also fitted with an infrared sensor array underneath so it can spot nuclear missile launches. The array requires cryogenic cooling, so do the superconductive coils, so one refrigeration system can do double duty.

I understand the infrared censors are also good at spotting marijuana on public and and that they
have been using it for that purpose as well.

Humor

When we have a situation that we have absolutely no control over; when we might be invaded, slaughtered, enslaved, perhaps leading to our understanding that we are really not on the top of the food chain, it's stressful.

So for those of you who have a sense of humor, here is a little stress relief in the form of a game in which you get to the nasty alien.

Orbs

2007-12-01T19:02:00.000-08:00

In the past I've posted a number of photographs I've taken of "orb" UFO's in Western Washington, as well as some taken by people in Surrey, BC, Canada, and Portland, Oregon. These things are turning up all over world and now they are showing up on Google's satellite imagery though it seems they don't keep the same data long as shortly after someone points them out they change the photos.

Here are a few examples of the orbs that I photographed and then I'll provide some from Google Maps satellite imagery (and apparently these are showing up in Google Earth as well though I haven't run across any yet).

Photographed from North the Edmonds-Kingston Ferry to the North

Photographed from Richmond Beach looking North

Part of a formation phographed from Juanita Beach in Kirkland looking West

The whole formation photographed from Juanita Beach

All of these objects have in common a solid spherical appearance, a silvery-white color, and they appear to reflect the sky and ground.

Here are some now that have showed up on Google Maps taken from this post in Google site seeing:

Something interesting to notice about this also is even when seen relatively close up in Google's satellite image, the edges are blurry, not well defined. In the photo I took at Richmond Beach, in the full frame there was also an old house in the photo with a television antenna way up north and the camera was sufficiently well focused that features of the antenna only one pixel wide were visible, yet the object was somewhat blurred like this. Likewise, the person in Surrey BC has observed them through a telescope and that same fuzziness is visible to them. It appears as if there is a solid sphere that is fairly well outlined, and then a fuzzy semitransparent area that lets part of the background through as seen in this satellite photograph.

The objects I photographed from the ground, in the case of Juanita, they were just into the clouds, and a commercial airliner passed shortly thereafter and from that I can estimate that these aren't that large, maybe 12-14 feet, considerably smaller than the fuselage diameter of the airliner (and it wasn't a huge airliner, smaller jet not a jumbo jet).

I don't know what these things are but the way they tend to hover over populated areas for long periods of time I would suspect they have some sort of reconnaissance function. The big question is are they "ours", meaning human origin, or "theirs", some alien intelligence. Even if they are ours, I am inclined to believe not of our elected government, but then I'm not sure our elected government runs much of anything anymore.
