Pennsylvania - The UFO Hotbed & Derbyshire Named As UFO Hotspot
Published 8th July 2020
Pennsylvania was the fifth best state for UFO sightings from January 2019 through June 2020.
In that period Pennsylvanians reported 358 sightings of strange lights and objects in the sky to the National UFO Reporting Center, according to an analysis of the center’s database by SatelliteInternet.com, which researches satellite internet.
That placed Pennsylvania behind California, with 752 reported sightings; Florida, 567; Washington, 386 and Texas, 375.
And 2020 is shaping up as a record year for UFOs over Pennsylvania. From January-June 2020, Pennsylvanians have filed 135 reports, nearly double the 75 reports filed during the first half of 2019.
“Hovering triangular object with three white lights and one red,” read a May 26 report from Mars, Pennsylvania.
“A very bright orange glowing craft (that I thought was on fire) traveled in a low altitude heading south from the northeast,” reported someone in Bethlehem on May 23.
A March 21 report from Harrisburg noted, “Dozens of odd shaped lights traveling at snail pace in the sky. Some traveling in triangle formation and some alone. One large craft stood still mostly but moved on occasion ascending and descending. Large bright light. Family member reported seeing the same about a mile away as well as one flickering on and off with red lights. Definitely an ongoing thing seeing these craft at night.
UFOs have been reported in the skies over Pennsylvania 3,887 times, according to the National UFO Reporting Center, which has been gathering reports since 1947.
That ranks Pennsylvania eighth among all 50 states in total reported sightings of eerie lights, erratically moving aircraft and mysterious metal saucers.
California is No. 1, with 13,559 reports, followed by Alabama, 10,882; Florida, 6,534; Washington, 5,894; Texas, 4,969; New York, 4,689; Arizona, 4,028; Pennsylvania, 3,887; Illinois, 3,616; and Ohio, 3,566.

We May Finally Know Why Earth’s Magnetic North Keeps Moving
Published 8th July 2020
Magnetic north keeps shifting, but we may finally know what’s causing it.
The Earth's magnetic north pole is shifting in two ways: It’s moving away from Canada and toward Siberia, and it is accelerating. In fact, it is accelerating so fast that we have had to update our models of Earth’s magnetic field ahead of schedule.
The reasoning behind why our magnetic poles move and flip has always been a mystery, until now.
A team of researchers from Leeds University think they have nailed down just what makes Earth's magnetic poles move: blobs.
The team from Leeds used 20 years of data collected by satellites, including ESA’s Swarm, and concluded that changes in flow at lower latitudes in Earth’s outer core have changed the magnetic flux, or the number of field lines, in two blobby areas.

Published 11th July 2020
The “new normal” is beginning to sink in, but for how long will current conditions be accepted by populations? Societal breakdown is already unfolding. For over a decade institutions like the Rockefeller Foundation, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and others have acted out "mock drills” of exactly the scenario that we now face. Was this just a coincidence? The global power elite have long since been aware that that the planet's life support systems are breaking down at blinding speed. Is the unfolding environmental unraveling directly connected to numerous agendas that are now being carried out?

NASA’s STEREO-A Spacecraft Spots Comet Encke Passing Near the Sun
Published 11th July 2020
Comet NEOWISE deservedly grabbing all the attention, but in other news, comet 2P/Encke has finally perked up.
The stuff at the left of the video is solar outflow. Lots of solar wind action going on in the tail, as it always does with this comet.
By early July, skywatchers at southern latitudes will nab the comet shining around magnitude 7.5 to 8 as it crosses Cancer in evening twilight. Moving rapidly eastward, the comet fades quickly, dimming to 11th magnitude by month's end.
Comet Encke has the shortest orbital period of any known comet within our solar system. It takes 3.30 years for Encke to orbit the Sun once. Its nucleus measures approximately 2,98 miles (4.8 kilometers) in diameter.

Comet NEOWISE Has A Super-Sized Nucleus - It Is Now Visible In The Evening Sky
Published 12th July 2020
Now we know why Comet NEOWISE (C/2020 F3) is so bright. Its nucleus is huge. Researchers working with NASA's NEOWISE spacecraft have analyzed infrared emissions from the comet's core in discovery images from March 2020.
The glow is proportional to the size of the nucleus--the nugget of dust and frozen gas at the heart of the comet. "From its infrared signature, we can tell that the nucleus is about 5 kilometers across," say researchers. 5 km is extremely large for a comet approaching this close to the sun (think Comet McNaught-sized), which explains its high activity.
On July 3rd, Comet NEOWISE passed by the sun near the orbit of Mercury. The oversized nucleus helped it survive the encounter, which some comets would have found too hot to handle. Now NEOWISE's sun-heated core is spewing massive amounts of dust and gas, creating a worldwide sensation.
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe was at the right place at the right time to capture a unique view of comet NEOWISE on July 5, 2020. Processed data from the WISPR instrument on NASA’s Parker Solar Probe shows greater detail in the twin tails of comet NEOWISE. The lower, broader tail is the comet’s dust tail, while the thinner, upper tail is the comet’s ion tail.
For Comet NEOWISE, the future looks bright. Its large nucleus is a reservoir of dust and gas that should continue to fill the comet's double tail with visible material for weeks to come.
NEOWISE is now visible in the evening sky. At the moment "Evening Comet" NEOWISE is still a horizon-hugger, low and hard to see. However, it will climb higher in the sunset sky as July unfolds. After July 15th, sunset will be the time and place to see the comet as it rockets northward toward the Big Dipper.

The UAE’s Hope Probe Will Make History As It Heads to Mars
Published 13th July 2020
The UAE is about to send its first probe to Mars, making history as the first interplanetary mission for the Arab world.
July 2020 is a crowded month for Mars missions, but one mission in particular will be making history in more ways than one.
The Emirates Hope Probe, the first interplanetary mission for the Arab world (the country’s national space program only started in 2006), could provide us with the most comprehensive picture of the Martian atmosphere yet,
In order to get the project off the ground, the team worked with a handful of U.S. institutions, including University of Colorado Boulder and UC Berkeley, setting their sights on a better understanding of Mars’ atmosphere.

This 3.2 Gigapixel Camera Will Record A Timelapse Of The Universe
Published 12th July 2020
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will use the world's largest digital camera to capture the far reaches of the universe, and in the process, hope to tackle some of the most fundamental questions in science today.
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is the first national observatory to have been named for a woman and it currently houses the world’s largest optical lens ever built.
Measuring 1.55 meters in diameter, this piece of glass is one of three lenses that will be the eyes for a new astronomical camera. The optical lens weighs more than 3 tons and has an enormous field of view, where light from billions of galaxies will come into focus. By recording images of the entire sky every few days, this camera will produce a time-lapse movie of the universe.
In this Focal Point, we hear from Cosmologist Daniel Gruen, PhD, from the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, and Stuart Marshall, a camera operator physicist, to learn more about what this massive digital camera has to offer.

Four New Giant Telescopes Are About to Rock Astronomy
https://www.discovermagazine.com/the...rock-astronomy
“Now, astronomers stand on the threshold of a new telescope revolution. During the next several years, researchers expect three instruments that are more than twice the size of their closest competitors to start scanning the skies. And a fourth telescope, one “only” 8 meters in diameter, will use advanced technology to image the entire night sky every three days. This quartet of new instruments promises to deliver stunning science on the hot-button issues.”
