    Planet X in our time?

    Some people say that the image below, taken from this Google Sky link is the mysterious Planet X. Is this strange shape recently revealed by Google Sky the mysterious Planet X? There has been some controversy about this segment of sky in the Google tool as for a long time it was blacked out, showing a rectangular area of black. Google has been accused of hiding things on maps. (See 24 Places Google Maps Won’t Let You See for alleged examples.) Some of the so-called censorship

    Which aliens are you rooting for?

    You’re stopped on a deserted road, responsibly pulled over as you text your friends. Suddenly, the phone goes dead. The car goes dead. You are stranded in the dark in the middle of nowhere. A light, as bright as the sun, erupts in the darkness and you are chilled to the bone as you realize you are about to have a close encounter with alien life. But which ones will it be? According to the article,  The 6 Alien Species Currently Fighting for Control Over Earth, not all aliens

    Could Mysterious Radio Signals Be E.T.?

    Is it possible that SETI has finally found what it’s been looking for — an extraterrestrial message from deep space?  Apparently for some time now, scientists have been receiving these unusual radio signals, and are at a loss for what could explain them. From the Huffington Post: What are those things? For the past eight years, astronomers have been scratching their heads over a series of strange radio signals emanating from somewhere in the cosmos. And now, the mystery has d

    The Salesman, The Lights, His Alien Lover and a Mummy

    The Place: The Appalachian Mountains The Time: 1965 The Story: Pretty wild, man. Meet Ralph Lael, a furniture salesman who was scouting a mountain in North Carolina that was famous for what was called “The Brown Mountain Lights”. On certain nights, many claimed that mysterious lights would rise up from the forest and into the skies. Pre-1947 and the beginning of the UFO craze, they were believed by Native Americans and early settlers to be ‘spirit lights’, but of course after

    Sheep Getting Slaughtered by Laser-Happy UFOs

    Well, now we know why the sixth sheik’s sheep got sick. That is, if his situation is anything like that happening to the farmers in the English county of Shropshire. Farmers there report their sheep are being “lasered” by lights coming from UFOs. Which would be fine if the aliens thought they were cats and were just trying to get them to play. But no, these lasers are causing “neat holes” in the animals and their brains, eyes, and other internal organs are being removed. The

    ROSWELL DEBRIS WITNESS JESSE MARCEL JR. DIES

    Jesse Marcel Jr., one of the last witnesses to the Roswell debris (inset of his father) It is a shame that 66 years after the Roswell crash we STILL don’t know the truth… and with one of the last credible witnesses having passed away now, I fear we never will. Marcel Jr. was one of the last surviving witnesses to the debris recovered during the Roswell incident. Dr Jesse Marcel was the son of Major Jesse Marcel whose involvement in the recovery of debris from the Roswell UFO

A baffled mayor has asked scientists to examine the remains of what be believes to be the head of an alien dug up by workers in a graveyard in Croatia.

    ROSWELL ANNIVERSARY, MUSEUM TO GET UFO DEBRIS?

    Here’s an interesting bit of trivia.  Today, July 8th, was the very day 66 years ago that the legendary UFO crash supposedly took place in Roswell, New Mexico. I don’t know if it’s a cosmic coincidence or another incredible bit of providence on my part, but I’ve just been contacted by a man who claims to have some actual debris from another UFO that crashed somewhere here in Texas over a hundred years ago!  He contacted me after he learned about the Museum of the Weird from t

    TRIANGULAR UFOS OVER TENNESSEE AND COLORADO

    “I noticed a large triangular type shape with a big lit circle in the middle of it,” they stated in a testimony to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON). “I could only see the underneath because I was passing under it. I couldn’t believe it was hovering over me a bit to the left and over the power lines. I observed the power lines were just a few inches underneath the object.” They went on to describe the object in more detail. “I noticed four beams of light that went from one side

    GREEK UFO CLOUD

    One of the many speculations put forth by ufologists is the idea that UFOs can create their own “clouds” in order to sneak into an unsuspecting city or town undetected. An impressive example of one such “UFO cloud” was spotted hovering over the scenic city of Livadeia, Greece. UFO Sightings Daily posted images and a YouTube video of this cloud documented by a resident of Livadeia and they are quite unique and impressive. But are they truly evidence of an alien visitation?

    Today the NASA/SOHO ipad app reported the sighting of an unusually large, triangular object heading for our sun. The images posted by UFO Sightings Daily are remarkable to behold and beg the question: Just what exactly is traveling towards the center of our solar system? Scott C. Warring, the gentleman who posted the news about the UFO stated, “I was looking at the still photos of the sun on the official NASA/SOHO app and noticed a triangle UFO of massive proportions that was

    PREHISTORIC MACHINERY DISCOVERED IN RUSSIA

    Let’s take a brief look back 300 million years into Earth’s history. Just what was happening at this volatile juncture in time? The planet was dominated by a single supercontinent known as Pangaea amidst the massive ocean known as Panthalassa. Deserts covered the majority of the interior of the continent where the first reptiles began to rise to dominance. The Permian Era saw the evolution of amniotes into the first groups of mammals, turtles, lepidosaurs and archosaurs. Hard

Greer has consistently quested, through the development of The Disclosure Project in 1993, to convince the U.S. government to reveal any and all knowledge they may possess about the existence of U.F.

    HOTTEL MEMO FURTHERS BELIEVERS’ SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH

    The truth is out there, but for believers of UFO theories, it may very well be contained within the F.B.I.’s database of public records known as the Vault. Out of the 6,700 documents, one in particular has been viewed nearly a million times since 2011. Known as the “Hottel Memo,” the letter was addressed to then Director Edgar J. Hoover on March 22, 1950 from Guy Hottel, the head of the Bureau’s field office in Washington, D.C. It relayed a conversation held between Hottel an

    Did a plane carrying a famed fashion designer vanish into thin air over these islands? Last month, a plane carrying famous fashion designer Vittorio Missoni mysteriously disappeared in mid-flight. An exhaustive search found no wreckage or debris, and to this day it remains an unsolved mystery. The region the plane vanished in is known as a dangerous area where other disappearances have occurred.  Referred to as ‘Los Roques Curse,’ it is close to the vicinity of the infamous B

    Photo of the supposed UFO caught by a security camera and detailed in a January 5, 2013 MUFON report. Could the above photo be that of an actual landed alien spacecraft?  So claims a witness in Texas who filed a report with MUFON on January 5, 2013. In the report the person alleges his father works for an oil company in Cotulla, Texas, and goes on to explain: “…They had noticed that some people were taking the crude oil in the night… they started putting cameras up around the

    THE MAYAN APOCALYPSE DIDN’T HAPPEN, SO IS THIS THE NEW AGE? IT CAN BE.

    Many people believed the end of the world would come on December 21, 2012, the date that marked the end of the Mayan calendar. That date has come and gone, and I can’t help but wonder what all the die-hard Mayan Apocalypse believers are thinking now. There were two general ways of thinking about how this end would come: it would either be a horrific doomsday scenario that would be the end of all life as we know it, or it would mark the beginning of a new age of human enlighte

    WHAT KNOWLEDGE OF UFOS DID OUR PAST PRESIDENTS REALLY HAVE?

    The folks over at ghosttheory.com have pulled together a fantastic review of our past presidents and their relationship/ knowledge of UFOs and extraterrestrials. Ghost Theory writes: E Pluribus Unum: Out of many, One is what it says on the Seal of the President of the United States of America. Traditionally the phrase is meant to express that out of the many colonies that formed the nascent new country a single nation was born. In a more modern context it could be interpreted
