Underwater Alien Bases and Unidentified Submerged Objects

http://data1.ibtimes.co.in/en/full/640750/ufo-underwater-mysterious-strange-alien.jpg?h=450&l=50&t=40

There have been countless UFO cases and reports over the centuries, but one area of potential extraterrestrial phenomena that doesn't seem to get as much attention is that of strange things beneath the waters of our world.

USOs, which is an acronym for "Unidentified Submerged Objects," are basically UFOs that can enter and exit bodies of waters such as oceans and lakes. While these phenomena aren’t as well known to the public as UFOs, USOs have a well-documented history that goes back much further that you may realize. This list of USO reports and potential bases is but a sample of the hundreds if not thousands of encounters that have been reported.

For the sake of brevity, the Archive compiled a list that represents some of the better-known encounters.

Turtles Around the World Are Basking in Moonlight

A new study is the first of its kind to document the widespread basking of freshwater turtles at night

http://www.treehugger.com/thmb/NLOMykLLjIFZNaXCQy2mCe_O5gU=/750x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)/freshwater-turtles-9d10eb44a67b48c3bf9c86e52d5c7ae7.jpeg

While the rest of us are sleeping, freshwater turtles from Central America to Asia are slinking out of the water and basking at night. There have been occasional anecdotal reports of this behavior before, but now a new study is the first to document the widespread occurrence. The findings suggest that nocturnal basking "may be a common and almost entirely overlooked aspect of many species’ ecology," write the authors.

The study was led by La Trobe University and published in Global Ecology and Conservation. In it, the authors document nocturnal basking in six families of freshwater turtle species, occurring in Central America, Trinidad and Tobago, Seychelles, Africa, Asia, and Australia.

“We think it's related to temperature. The water is staying so warm at night that it's actually warmer than the turtles like to be and they can cool down by coming out of the water,” says La Trobe University's Dr. Donald McKnight. “It’s widespread across the turtle family tree, with the caveat that it is only in the tropics and the subtropics where it occurs. They were coming up at night and sitting on logs exhibiting very much the same behavior they do during the day; when we looked into it, it wasn’t something that turtles reportedly did."

For the study, researchers from around the world did what anyone would do when wondering what turtles do at night: They put cameras on basking logs to monitor the nocturnal activity of as many freshwater turtle species as possible.

The cameras were set up in 25 locations across Australia, Belize, Germany, India, Seychelles, Senegal, Trinidad and Tobago, the United States, and South Africa. They were programmed to take a photo every two minutes; they captured data on 29 species from seven of the freshwater turtle families.

Map Shows Where You Are Most Likely to Spot UFOs in the UK

http://www.bonusinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/ufo-sightings-1.png
UK Saw Nearly 500 UFOs in 2022

UFOs, or unidentified flying objects, have been capturing our imagination for over 70 years. Recently, they have been rebranded as unidentified aerial phenomena or UAPs but are still most commonly referred to as UFOs. According to the organization UFO Identified, which gathered data from local and national media, as well as FOI (Freedom of Information) requests, a total of 497 UFO sightings have been reported across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in 2022.

In comparison, there were 465 sightings in 2020 and 413 in 2021, which means that people saw more unexplained phenomena last year than they previously had. In fact, there has been an increase in sightings across all countries, with the exception of Northern Ireland.

http://www.bonusinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/ufo-sightings-in-the-uk.png

Interestingly, the most likely time to spot a UFO is between 9 pm and 10 pm and on Saturdays. This specific timing could be explained by the fact that most people work during the day, from Monday to Friday. Consequently, they only have time to watch the skies in the evenings and at weekends. Also, satellites, drones, and other objects that blink or have any sort of lights are much more visible at night. Data also show that the regions where the most UFO sightings were reported in 2022 were the South East with 75 reports, the North West with 68 reports, and the South West with 60 reports.

http://www.bonusinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/ufo-sightings-in-england.png

Out of all 497 reports, assessed by UFO Identified for 2022, the vast majority were in England – 411 sightings compared to 52 sightings in Scotland, 30 in Wales, and only 4 in Northern Ireland. Localised data is available only for England, so for the map, we calculated the average sightings for the other countries based on 32 council areas in Scotland, 22 counties in Wales, and 11 districts in Northern Ireland.

If we look at the English counties and districts where these unidentified objects were spotted, the areas with the highest population density unsurprisingly had the most reports. There are, of course, a few exceptions.

The highest number of UFO sightings in 2022 were reported in Greater Manchester – a total of 26 reports described either UFOs or UAPs. Greater London ranks second with 20 reports, followed by Lancashire and Hampshire where 19 sightings were reported in each county. Another 17 sightings were reported in the West Midlands, as well as 15 in Cheshire. The counties of Essex, Somerset, and Staffordshire follow with 14 cases each.

This aluminum device is shaped like a Fibonacci spiral and somehow compresses time. The Russian scientists would sit a subject in it, and they would see symbols and one of which was the eye of providence. They cataloged some 1,200 different ones that most closely resembled Sumerian symbols. A sense of fear would emanate from the device along with a mysterious black cloud. Objects in the sky were reported over their position.

The Kozyrev mirror (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kozyrev_mirror) was a theoretical time machine proposed by the Soviet astrophysicist Nikolai Kozyrev. After it was built, experiments were conducted at the North Pole, and the events to follow became infamous for their extreme degree of extraterrestrial - and possibly interdimensional - activity.

That was fun.

Answers seem to lie in two directions, the theoretical and the esoteric.
Not sure why we never consider the interval between planets and stars as time and only as space. Yet we measure distance as a unit of time - the light-year.
We might understand that we are looking backwards in time as we look upwards at the stars, but we consider that a consequence of the massive distances involved.
Why do we not imagine it is space that is the consequence of a massive interval of time separation?

The more we delve into the nature of the human condition at levels never broached before, except for perhaps in ancient times, the concept of the controlled environment is frequently a central issue. Whether that includes specific control using various technological advances or it is psychological manipulation using synced/coherent messaging to induce compliance, the end result is a restrictive world of global coercion. And that's not to mention the more esoteric forms of direct non-human interference at levels we cannot see or understand.
It may even be that our thoughts are not our own...

Interesting to hear mention of auras and light bodies, considering another of my posts from earlier today. Consciousness is not as it seems.
How can an experience be interpreted without any context? This is the conundrum. When an experience does not fit into the usual pattern of things, how can it be explained? If it defies logic as we know it yet there it is - what is it and what have we seen?

To activate, the device must be rotated one and a half times clockwise - counter to the earth's rotation. What's that do, funnel in the time energy?

I enjoyed the vid. Thanks

I like the theory that the planets trail behind the sun like comet debris. Maybe the motion creates space/time. If the planets were on a plain, there would be times of the year you couldn't see them because they would be on the other side of the sun.

Okay, I'm going to share what happened yesterday. I was watching a video breakdown of the movie Total Recall. At 6:37 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQz0u01vOPM) Arnold types onto a keyboard and it anagrammed (https://wordsmith.org/anagram/advanced.html) to auras. From there I looked up auras on Mars (https://www.techtimes.com/articles/251656/20200807/mars-shows-eerie-green-aura-night-images-taken-nasas-maven.htm) and they're green like the Matrix code. Minutes ago, while trying to relocate that scene it now anagrams to Anu Era or REUAAN. While watching again it looked like he hits the M making it My Area. Did Earth AI (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118713-AI-Controlled-Sim-Gearing&p=1500923&viewfull=1#post1500923) make an alteration?

The Sky Tonight

April 15-16: The Whirlpool and Pinwheel galaxies (all night)

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/bXAuzrpb5QZYH62fckaZgg-970-80.jpg

In the evenings during April, the Big Dipper is positioned high in the northeast. Under dark sky conditions, two impressive galaxies can be seen in binoculars and backyard telescopes by using the bright star Alkaid at the tip of the dipper's handle to find them. The Pinwheel Galaxy, or Messier 101, is a spectacular, large, face-on spiral galaxy positioned a slim palm's width to the lower left (or 5.5 degrees north) of Alkaid, forming an equilateral triangle with Mizar, the double star at the bend of the dipper's handle. This relatively close galaxy (21 million light-years away) is nearly as large as the full moon in the sky.

April 16-17: Crescent moon and Saturn (before sunrise)

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/xvQv357X3T8s3XfMozagmg-970-80.jpg

Look a short distance above the southeastern horizon before dawn on Sunday, Apr. 16 to see the slender crescent of the old moon shining several finger widths below (or 4.7 degrees southeast of) the magnitude 1.0 dot of yellowish Saturn, allowing them to share the view in binoculars (orange circle).

April 20: New moon and hybrid solar eclipse (at 04:12 GMT)

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/EBmhAE5RHs2np82meWjFsg-970-80.jpg

At 12:12 a.m. EDT (04:12 GMT) on Thursday, Apr. 20, the moon will officially reach its new moon phase. That converts to 9:12 p.m. PDT on April 19. While new, the moon is traversing the space between Earth and the sun. Since sunlight is only shining on the far side of a new moon, and the moon is in the same region of the sky as the sun, our natural satellite becomes completely hidden from view for about a day — unless a solar eclipse occurs!

This new moon will generate a rare hybrid solar eclipse. The sun will be partially eclipsed for an area encompassing Australia, Indonesia, northern New Zealand, and much of the western Pacific Ocean. Observers on a very narrow track that crosses the Ningaloo Coast of Western Australia, Timor-Leste, and West Papua, Indonesia will see a brief total eclipse. And of course,always wear proper solar filters when viewing a solar eclipse in person.

Astronomers Create Most Detailed Map of Dark Matter

Although no one knows what it is, now we know where it is.

Using data from NSF’s Atacama Cosmology Telescope, astronomers have produced the most detailed map of dark matter distributed across one quarter of the sky. Their work provides further support to Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which has been the foundation of the Standard Model of cosmology for more than a century.

http://cdn.sci.news/images/enlarge10/image_11818_1e-Dark-Matter-Map.jpg

Although dark matter makes up a large chunk of the Universe, approximately 85%, it has remained hard to detect because dark matter does not interact with light or other forms of electromagnetic radiation. Scientists believe dark matter may only interact with gravity.

To track dark matter down, Stony Brook University astronomer Neelima Sehgal and more than 160 astronomers worldwide have built and gathered data from NSF’s Atacama Cosmology Telescope in the high Chilean Andes.

“Remarkably, this map provides measurements showing that both the ‘lumpiness’ of the Universe, and the rate at which it is growing after 14 billion years of evolution, are just what you’d expect from our Standard Model of cosmology based on Einstein’s theory of gravity,” said Dr. Mathew Madhavacheril, an astronomer at the University of Pennsylvania.

M2-9: Wings of a Butterfly Nebula by Judy Schmidt

http://freepngimg.com/thumb/butterfly/33381-1-purple-butterfly-thumb.png

Are stars better appreciated for their art after they die? Actually, stars usually create their most artistic displays as they die. In the case of low-mass stars like our Sun and M2-9 pictured here, the stars transform themselves from normal stars to white dwarfs by casting off their outer gaseous envelopes. The expended gas frequently forms an impressive display called a planetary nebula that fades gradually over thousands of years. M2-9, a butterfly planetary nebula 2100 light-years away shown in representative colors, has wings that tell a strange but incomplete tale. In the center, two stars orbit inside a gaseous disk 10 times the orbit of Pluto. The expelled envelope of the dying star breaks out from the disk creating the bipolar appearance. Much remains unknown about the physical processes that cause and shape planetary nebulae.

Naughty Medieval Jokes and Humour

:censored:

Remember the expression ‘You’ve got to laugh or else you’ll cry’. Well, we all need a little bit of laughter in our lives and the Medievals were no different. Let’s face it, having to deal with poverty, being supremely pious, and suffering from horrific diseases like the Black Death was enough to make anybody miserable and the Medievals had to grab whatever joy they could. Let’s travel back in time for some more funny stories and naughty jokes from the Middle Ages, where, traditionally, the butt of the joke would either be the corruption of the clergy or the voracious sexual appetites and stupidity of the peasants.

Who flies the Mars Helicopter?

Håvard Grip Pilots NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter

http://www.aopa.org/-/media/Images/AOPA-Main/News-and-Media/Publications/Pilot-Magazine/2022/2203/2203p_pilots/2203p_pilots_16x9.jpg

I couldn't pilot a helicopter here on Earth, but I do it on Mars all the time. My job can be like a video game, but not the kind with a joystick.

I'm the chief pilot for NASA's Ingenuity helicopter, which landed on Mars with the Perseverance rover in February 2021. At the time, I was pretty certain the helicopter was only going to make up to five flights. And if we got five flights, man, I would be overjoyed.

Today, we've flown the helicopter 40 50 times. It's been a totally different thing than I dared to imagine. I can almost believe anything that you tell me Ingenuity can do, because it just keeps going. I love my job. It's a little unusual and a little different than piloting an aircraft on Earth, in part because it's so far.

It takes about five to 20 minutes to send a message to Mars. That means everything moves on a slower timeline. The execution of a single flight takes multiple days. It's not a real-time thing. You're not sitting and joy-sticking something and looking at it.

It's like a very particular kind of strategic video game, perhaps. It's thinking about all of the eventualities and gathering all of the information and making very careful decisions. Because when it's game over, it's game over.

There's no recovering a crashed helicopter on Mars.

Ingenuity Mars Helicopter Celebrates 50 Flights

NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter made history when it achieved the first powered, controlled flight on another planet on April 19, 2021. Since then, it has exceeded expectations and most recently executed its 50th flight on Mars. This video highlights Ingenuity’s flights, captured by the Perseverance Rover’s WATSON and Mastcam-Z cameras, as well as Ingenuity’s color Return to Earth (RTE) camera and its black-and-white navigation camera.

Spacesuit Prototype Revealed For Artemis 3 Moon Landing

When NASA astronauts return to the Moon, they’ll be using new and updated spacesuits

http://www.spaceflightinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Axiom_AxEMU_Full-640x971.jpg

The Axiom Extravehicular Activity Unit, or AxEMU, is based in part on designs developed by NASA over the last decade. The prototype was revealed on March 15, 2023, during an event at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

Axiom Space is one of two providers developing spacesuits for NASA under the agency’s Exploration Extravehicular Activity Services, or xEVAS, contract. The other company is Collins Aerospace, which is developing spacesuits for the International Space Station — replacing the current units which are more than 40 years old.

Both companies are able to compete for task orders — be they for low Earth orbit missions, or lunar sorties — through 2034, with a maximum contract value of $3.5 billion, according to NASA. Each company retains ownership of their suits and can use them for other customers, not just the U.S. space agency.

The annual Lyrid meteor shower, derived from particles dropped by comet C/1861 G1 (Thatcher), runs from Apr. 16 to 29. It will peak in intensity at approximately 9 pm EDT on Saturday, Apr. 22, but more meteors will be seen once the shower's radiant point near the bright star Vega in Lyra climbs higher in the sky in the early hours of Sunday morning, Apr. 23. The Lyrids can produce up to 15-20 meteors per hour at the peak, with occasional fireballs. No moonlight will spoil the shower this year.

France's Guardians of Champagne Destroy 2,300 Cans of Miller High Life: 'The Champagne of Beers’

http://static.foxbusiness.com/foxbusiness.com/content/uploads/2023/04/AP23111351417560-e1682097526148.jpg

The guardians of France’s prized champagne industry ordered that some 2,352 cans of Miller High Life beer be destroyed by Belgium customs for infringement over its slogan of choice: "The Champagne of Beers."

At the request of the French trade organization tasked with protecting its national products and growers, the Comité Champagne, the American beers were drained after sitting in a Belgium customs warehouse for two months.

Miller High Life, which is owned by Molson Coors Beverage Co., is not currently exported to the European Union, and the order for more than 2,300 cans of the American beer was intercepted in Antwerp, Belgium, in February on its way to Germany.

It is unclear who ordered the beer shipment, though France deemed the company's characterization of "Champagne" as an affront to its prized sparkling wine. The buyer in Germany was apparently "informed" and "did not contest the decision" to destroy the beers.

According to the Milwaukee-based beer company the Miller Brewing Company – which was founded in the 1850s by German immigrant Frederick Miller – began to use the slogan the "Champagne of Bottle Beers" in 1906 after Miller High Life became the company’s flagship beer following its launch in 1903. The slogan was then changed to "The Champagne of Beers" in 1969.

Never-Before-Seen Matter Hidden in a Chunk of Fossilized Lightning May be a Brand New Mineral

The potential new mineral was discovered in a chunk of "fossilized lightning", or fulgurite, in a tree in Florida

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/dvaRpLku57RVktPgpRNLQg-970-80.jpg

A potentially brand new mineral may have been hiding inside a chunk of "fossilized lightning" from Florida, scientists have revealed.

"We have never seen this material occur naturally on Earth," Mathew Pasek (opens in new tab), a geoscientist at the University of South Florida, said in a statement. "Minerals similar to it can be found in meteorites and space, but we've never seen this exact material anywhere."

The fossilized lightning chunk, or fulgurite, was created when lightning struck a tree near New Port Richey. Fulgurites form when powerful lightning bolts discharge through the ground, which melts and fuses any nearby soil, sand, rock and organic debris into a singular metallic-looking lump.

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/JXgYXRnJKHGu8KWn5mdZhg-970-80.jpg
Microscopic view

The owner of the New Port Richey tree sold the fulgurite to Pasek, who studies high-energy chemical reactions like those triggered by lightning. After cracking open the rocky lump, which was around 2.8 inches (7 cenitmeters) long and 0.8 inches (2 cm) wide, Pasek and fellow researchers discovered a "colorful, crystal-like matter" within the fulgurite.

Subsequent analysis revealed that the mysterious matter was of a previously unknown material consisting mainly of calcium phosphate (CaHPO3). The team strongly suspects that the new material is a brand-new mineral type, but it will take time for this to be confirmed by other scientists.

"You know when I die, when I get to heaven, the only thing I'm going to ask God is: 'Who were those guys in the park?'"

This quote was uttered by witness George O'Barski during an interview about his January 1975 UFO sighting in North Bergen, New Jersey, in the North Hudson Park (now known as the James J. Braddock Park). Since then, there have been dozens of UFO encounters around the Stonehenge building and the nearby park. The late and noted ufologist Budd Hopkins conducted an intensive investigation and wrote a book about this unusual case.

Argentinian Taxi Radio Interferes With NASA's Spacewalk Broadcast

“150 Irigoyen, you said?”

The innocent question made by an apparent taxi driver has become a sensation in Argentina after the driver’s taxi radio interfered with the signal from the International Space Station and popped up live during NASA’s live broadcast of a spacewalk.

Russian cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin worked overnight on Tuesday to move a radiator from the ISS’ Rassvet module to the Nauka science module, spending a total of seven hours and 55 minutes outside the space station.

http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/c_fit,f_auto,g_center,q_60,w_1315/cbc909baa5d38ec424aee85e4ba3cd22.jpg

During their spacewalk, the ISS passed over Argentina several times. It was 12:30 a.m. ET when things started to get weird. The interference was loud and clear, but only lasted a few seconds. The NASA TV presenter reacted quickly and apologized for the blip, saying it was a “hot mic.”

http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/c_fit,f_auto,g_center,q_60,w_645/8bafcb7d7c83608317a66d6a007d10fa.jpg
The ISS was flying over Argentina at the time of the incident

As for where exactly the address in question is in Argentina, that’s complicated. It could be Bernardo de Irigoyen or Hipólito Yrigoyen, and there are dozens of avenues, boulevards, and streets with those names in Argentina.

There’s also an avenue called Hipólito Yrigoyen in Montevideo, the capital of Uruguay, so we can’t rule out that the taxi driver was Uruguayan and not Argentinian. But given the location of the ISS at the moment of the incident, it’s more likely that the signal came from the province of Buenos Aires in Argentina.

Burning Orbs Over Lakeland, Florida, April 1, 2023

Eyewitness states: I like all I can see is that it was doing loop the loop in the sky right in front of me. And look up and see this fire thing going down going left going around in a circle and coming down that shooting up. It was just too weird. This is one of two videos that I will be submitting. Second video the objects were stationary then one of them shot straight up then left it was incredible to see.

Guardians of the Reef: How Scientists Are Using NASA Satellite Data To Protect Belize’s Coral

http://scitechdaily.com/images/Lighthouse-Reef-%E2%80%8EBelize-Great-Blue-Hole-777x518.jpg

Belize’s barrier reef system, including a deep marine cave known as the Great Blue Hole, is the subject of a recent study in which researchers used Google Earth and 20 years of NASA satellite data to assess the risk to coral reefs from higher temperatures and murky water.

The 185-mile-long (298-kilometer-long) barrier reef system off the coast of Belize encompasses vibrant marine environments that support thousands of animal and plant species and drive the Central American country’s largest industry, tourism. The system is one of about 1,200 UNESCO World Heritage sites around the world.

In a study published in the journal Frontiers in Remote Sensing, the scientists ranked 24 marine protected areas off the Belize coast based on the risks coral face from murky water and rising temperatures. The study also outlined how researchers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California and counterparts in Belize used free, cloud-based data on Google Earth Engine in their analysis.

“We depend on the reef for so many things, so conserving these resources is important,” said Emil Cherrington, a native Belizean and co-author of the paper. He is a research scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and a co-investigator on the Belize Sustainable Development Goal project, a NASA effort to use Earth observation data to protect the country’s marine ecosystems. “Studies like this are giving the government of Belize more tools for conserving the resources that the country has.”

Six Whistleblowers Who Claim They Worked on Military UFO Programs Retrieving and Analyzing Crash Material Have Come Forward to Congress

https://mustorage.blob.core.windows.net/images/2023/04/blobid1682630281165.jpg

Lawyer Daniel Sheehan said he is in contact with at least six former government officials or military contractors who say they worked on UFO programs. The whistleblowers claim they worked on Roswell-style UFO crash retrieval and reverse engineering programs and have spoken to members of Congress. The attorney is launching a watchdog charity pushing for greater government transparency on UFOs.

Senior members of Congress have spoken to as many as six whistleblowers who claim they worked on Roswell-style UFO crash retrieval and reverse engineering programs, according to a top attorney, a leading Stanford scientist, and ex-UFO program officials.

For decades it has been the subject of spooky TV shows and sci-fi novels: the theory that the government has alien spacecraft in a bunker somewhere, and has been trying to disassemble and understand their technology. But things got a lot more real after Congress passed a law last year creating whistleblower protections for anyone who has worked in such mind-boggling secret programs – suggesting they may be more than just fiction.

The 2023 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), signed into law by Mentally Retarded Puppet President Joe Biden in December, included an amendment requiring the Pentagon to give high-ranking Senators classified reports on any previously undisclosed programs 'relating to unidentified anomalous phenomena, including with respect to material retrieval, material analysis, reverse engineering'.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, high-profile lawyer Daniel Sheehan said he is in contact with at least six former government officials or military contractors who say they worked on just such a program.

One congressman publicly put the Pentagon on notice that he was aware of claims of UFO-tinkering programs evading proper oversight by lawmakers during the first public hearing on unidentified objects in over 50 years last May.

At the historic hearing, Wisconsin Republican Rep. Mike Gallagher entered into the Congressional record an explosive document dubbed the 'Wilson-Davis Notes'.

Physicist and intelligence official Dr. Eric Davis allegedly met with then-deputy director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Vice Admiral Thomas Wilson, in Las Vegas in October 2002, and wrote notes of what Wilson told him. According to the notes, the Vice Admiral told Davis that in the early 2000s he uncovered – but was denied access to – a secret program run by a defense contractor that retrieved and attempted to reverse engineer UFOs.

Jimmy Carter Wept

http://styles.redditmedia.com/t5_50obnb/styles/communityIcon_l5mhbqwka2f91.png

Former NASA researcher Ed Harris claims that the story of President Jimmy Carter crying after being briefed on classified UFO information is true.

Mr Harris went public recently about a government UFO briefing given to then President Jimmy Carter while he was in office from 1977 to 1981. Mr. Carter is now 98 and in hospice care. In 1969 while he was governor of Georgia, Carter was with a number of other people who believed they witnessed a UFO before Carter spoke at a Lion’s Club meeting. Carter was persuaded to make a formal report on the incident to a UFO reporting site. When he ran for office, he promised to open the files on UFO sightings to the public. That never happened, and a story recently from Reddit may explain why.

It comes from former NASA researcher Ed Harris and was said to have been confirmed by other witnesses. According to the report – and contrary to what the public is led to believe – U.S. presidents are only entitled to a cursory overview of UFO reports, which in Carter’s time fell under the jurisdiction of the CIA. Because of his own UFO sighting and his promise to open the files, Carter was very persistent in seeking answers and was said to have become frustrated when he got none. Finally, the CIA decided to share some deep secrets with Carter, and Harris and others reported that afterwards “he sunk his head in his hands and not only began to deeply sob, but was visibly disturbed for some weeks afterward.” Why?

“He was told that the major religions including Christianity were programs created by extraterrestrials to prevent us from destroying ourselves while they ran their experiments on us – and that they made us. At this moment it became clear to Carter that such information could cause tremendous economic and social upheaval.”

Perhaps this explains why Mr Carter took a different post-Presidency path than any other before him or since.

Radiocarbon timestamps left in tree rings by cosmic rays can date historical events with unprecedented precision

One thousand years ago, according to Viking sagas, intrepid seafarers sailed west from Greenland to a coast they called Vinland. There they set up camps, harvested wild grapes, and skirmished with local people. At an archaeological site in a coastal town in Newfoundland called L’Anse aux Meadows, remnants of structures laid out like Viking longhouses and artifacts such as a bronze cloak pin and iron nails record their presence—likely the first Europeans to set foot in North America. Yet pinning down exactly when Vikings came to Vinland was impossible, until researchers discovered a kind of cosmic timestamp preceding their arrival.

In 2021, Margot Kuitems and Michael Dee of the University of Groningen obtained pieces of timber from a longhouse with visible tree rings and intact bark. Kuitems, an archaeologist, and Dee, a radiocarbon expert, were hoping to find a tree ring with an unusually large amount of carbon-14 (14C): the signature of a barrage of high-energy particles from outer space known to have occurred in 993–94 C.E. “It was a bit of a shot in the dark,” Kuitems says. But 28 rings in from the bark, they found the telltale 14C spike: persuasive evidence that Vikings had felled the fir and juniper trees used to build the longhouse in 1021 C.E.

The timing of the Viking foothold at L’Anse aux Meadows heralds a revolution in archaeology: a newfound ability to whittle the age of wooden artifacts from decades down to single years. The breakthrough paving the way for such precision came in 2012, when Japanese physicist Fusa Miyake revealed that a massive influx of cosmic rays caused a big uptick in 14C in a tree ring dated to 774–75 C.E. Since then, at least seven more confirmed spikes, known as Miyake events, have been found so far. The earliest well-supported spike dates to 7176 B.C.E.

The technique “is phenomenally cool,” says Charlotte Pearson, a dendrochronologist and radiocarbon scientist at the University of Arizona’s Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research. “These are eureka moments, and we’re about to have a lot more of them.”

SpaceX Starship Effectively Grounded by FAA After in-Flight Explosion

It was an exciting time when, two weeks ago, SpaceX got the clearance it needed to conduct its first orbital flight test with the Starship and Super Heavy launch system. After years of waiting, SN flight tests, static fire tests, and stacking and unstacking, the long-awaited test of the SN24 Starship and BN7 Booster prototype was on! For this flight, SpaceX hoped to achieve an altitude of at least 150 km (90 mi) above sea level, crossing the 100 km (62 mi) threshold that officially marks the boundary of “space” (aka. the Karman Line) and making a partial transit around the world before splashing down off the coast of Hawaii.

Unfortunately, things began to go awry a few minutes into the flight as the Starship prototype failed to separate from the booster, sending the rocket into a spin that ended in an explosion. While Musk and SpaceX issued statements that the test was largely successful and lots of valuable data was obtained, residents and environmental researchers claim the explosion caused damage to houses in the area and the local environment. In response, the FAA has launched a “mishap investigation,” temporarily grounding the Starship until the explosion’s impact can be assessed.

How Much Do Astronauts Get Paid?

http://regmedia.co.uk/2018/11/15/astronaut-money.jpg

Is The Paycheck Worth The Risk?

When considering dream jobs, astronaut is pretty high up there for many. But being an astronaut requires years of education, experience, and training as well as potentially hazardous working conditions since space travel is not without risks. And let’s be honest. We need to ask how much we will be compensated for our education, experience, training, and risk on the job. We have to put food on the table, pay for housing, etc.

So, how much does an astronaut get paid?

NASA’s current requirements for astronaut applications are:

• United States citizenship
• Master’s degree in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields
• A minimum of two years of relevant professional experience or at least 1,000 hours of pilot-in-command time in jet aircraft
• Pass the NASA long-duration astronaut physical

We will start with how NASA compensates its astronauts since it currently contributes the majority of astronauts in space. NASA is a government agency and therefore its employees are paid based on the General Schedule (GS) rates as a base. Just like any other job, factors such as additional education or experience can increase the rate an astronaut receives and this salary is subject to change over time as those factors increase.

Pay grades for civilian astronauts are GS-11 through GS-14 with GS-11 starting at $64,724 per year and GS-14 earning up to $141,715 annually. However, the GS rates often have specific local rates that may differ from this. Astronauts are trained in Houston, TX, where the localized rates are about 30% higher than the general tables due to the city’s cost of living and competitive nature of the metroplex. For instance, NASA’s 2020 call for candidates, listed a salary range of $104,898 to $161,141.

About 58% of NASA astronauts are military personnel who have a similar pay system, but not quite the same. Military astronaut salaries are set by the Department of Defense, based primarily on years of service and rank. Pay rates are usually lower than those of civilian astronauts, but they continue receiving the exclusive benefits of their branch of service which are not available to civilian astronauts such as military medical benefits and even housing allowances.

In France, this starts at €5,845.25 per month (€70,143 per annum) and goes up to €8,381.57 per month (€100,578 per annum).

In the UK, this starts at £4,534.69 (£54,416 per annum) and goes up to £6,503.91 per month (£78,046 per annum). The US equivalent of this pay scale is $6,693.84 ($80,316 per annum) up to $9,596.82 ($115,161 per annum)

While this seems equal to our less than NASA rates, one thing to remember is that ESA salaries are exempt from national income tax in ESA Member States meaning they net that total as opposed to if they had to pay taxes on it as they do at NASA or in the private sector.

Russia’s pay scale for cosmonauts is a little more complicated, with a low base monthly salary, but high incentives and bonuses especially after years of service. ROSCOSMOS offers the following monthly salary scale converted to USD equivalent numbers:

• An astronaut candidate: $1,200 ($14,400/ year)
• A test astronaut: $1,300 ($15,600/ year)
• An instructor astronaut: $1,800 ($21,600/ year)

PLUS incentives including:

• Monthly allowances of up to a quarter of the salary
• Additional payments for the length of service
• A monthly bonus of up to 120% after three or more flights
• A one-time monetary reward for each flight

In addition to the international space agencies, several of the world’s billionaires also have space programs now. For example, SpaceX’s starting salary range for an astronaut is $120,000 to $200,000 depending on experience level and other factors. Musk has even stated he would pay astronauts who go to Mars $500,000.

Overwhelmingly, however, astronauts will say they don’t do it for the money. For them, the opportunity to go to and work in space is too dear. They see it as a chance to fulfill a dream and contribute to humanity’s progress in a positive way.

The Sky Tonight

May 3-4: Bright moon passes Spica (evening)

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/yiiPjfwfBhbwePdtxqLvzX-970-80.jpg

These nights will see the bright and nearly full, waxing gibbous moon shine near Virgo's brightest star, Spica. During the evening, the magnitude 0.95 star twinkles two finger widths to the moon's lower right (or celestial south). As the night wears on, the easterly orbital motion of the moon will carry it closer and then farther from Spica. The duo will set in the west-southwest around 5 a.m. local time.

May 5: Full Milk Moon dips into Earth's shadow (at 1:34 EDT)

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/pW4Lhhi7dVgurQtzmnpWBY-970-80.jpg

The moon will reach its full phase on Friday, May 5 at 1:34 p.m. EDT, 10:34 a.m. PDT, or 17:34 GMT. Full moons in May always shine in or near the stars of Libra or Scorpius.

The indigenous Ojibwe groups of the Great Lakes region call the May full moon Zaagibagaa-giizis "Budding Moon" or Namebine-giizis, the "Sucker Moon". For them, it signifies a time when Mother Earth again provides healing medicines. The Cree of North America call it Athikipisim, the "the Frog Moon" - the time when frogs become active in ponds and swamps. The Cherokee call it Ahnisguti, the "the Planting Moon", when the fields are plowed and sown. Other common names are the Full Milk Moon, Full Flower Moon, or Full Corn Planting Moon.

A New Blue Hole In The Ocean Extends As Far As The Eiffel Tower

http://images.ctfassets.net/cnu0m8re1exe/5C1LmGctFsEXUK3UyMoZwO/145f830fbbe442fc4bab9474619b94be/shutterstock_1593624988.jpg?fm=jpg&fl=progressive&w=660&h=433&fit=fill

In shallow Yucatan waters, a massive blue hole slides down to a cold, oxygen-deprived depth filled with life forms

With the help of a local fisherman, Jesus Artemio Poot Villa, scientists found the second-deepest blue hole in the world in an unlikely place — the shallow Chetumal Bay located on the southeastern side of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Filled with a hostile, oxygen-starved environment, the newly-named Taam Ja’ Blue Hole (TJBH) could one day invite research into how life could survive on alien planets or other harsh environments.

What Is a Blue Hole?

A blue hole is a vertical cave typically carved out of eroded limestone that opens onto the ocean floor with a rounded mouth, as is the case with TJBH. The deepest to date — the Dragon Hole in the South China Sea — measures 987 feet, which makes the new Chetumal Bay find the second deepest blue hole at about 900 feet, nearly the length of the Eiffel Tower. The Caribbean has plenty of other, shallower blue holes, too, including Dean’s Blue Hole, now the third deepest at 663 feet deep.

Scientists Find Link Between Photosynthesis and 'Fifth State Of Matter'

http://images.nationalgeographic.org/image/upload/t_edhub_resource_key_image/v1638892112/EducationHub/photos/green-tree-leaves.jpg

Inside a lab, scientists marvel at a strange state that forms when they cool down atoms to nearly absolute zero. Outside their window, trees gather sunlight and turn them into new leaves. The two seem unrelated—but a new study from the University of Chicago suggests that these processes aren't so different as they might appear on the surface.

The study, published in PRX Energy on April 28, found links at the atomic level between photosynthesis and exciton condensates—a strange state of physics that allows energy to flow frictionlessly through a material. The finding is scientifically intriguing and may suggest new ways to think about designing electronics, the authors said.

"As far as we know, these areas have never been connected before, so we found this very compelling and exciting," said study co-author Prof. David Mazziotti.

http://scx1.b-cdn.net/csz/news/800a/2023/scientists-find-link-b-1.jpg

Two pathways represented by the two sites of each chromophore. When ξ=0 , there is no cross-site interchromophore coupling, as shown. When V>0 , there is coupling, resulting in quantum interference between the sites of each chromophore. The waves demonstrate that the quantum interference can be either constructive or destructive, with constructive interference enhancing the energy-transfer efficiency.

When a photon from the sun strikes a leaf, it sparks a change in a specially designed molecule. The energy knocks loose an electron. The electron, and the "hole" where it once was, can now travel around the leaf, carrying the energy of the sun to another area where it triggers a chemical reaction to make sugars for the plant.

Together, that traveling electron-and-hole-pair is referred to as an "exciton." When the team took a birds-eye view and modeled how multiple excitons move around, they noticed something odd. They saw patterns in the paths of the excitons that looked remarkably familiar.

In fact, it looked very much like the behavior in a material that is known as a Bose-Einstein condensate, sometimes known as "the fifth state of matter." In this material, excitons can link up into the same quantum state—kind of like a set of bells all ringing perfectly in tune.

Fascinating.

The idea of the 'hole' in electronics is another example of how science seems unable to account for an obviously very common phenomena, giving it a name but its description is fully dependent on its relation to another phenomena and has no fundamental standing on its own. This allows for technology to advance but pure science suffers as a result by not advancing the understanding of the phenomena and its relation to reality.

Imagine, nature knows what humans do not. The travesty!

The Elite has created crisis in the world, so mankind would be crying out for help, so, that at the proper time the Anti-Christ would emerge. He will claim to be a higher being and will help for a while. But his main mission will be removing Christ and all who believe in him from the world! The greatest deception about to unfold!

Will Yellowstone's Geology Produce Rock Music?

http://www.researchgate.net/profile/Catherine-Quinlan-3/publication/283274507/figure/fig1/AS:972347167227904@1608837038915/Alien-life-on-Earth-Yellowstone-National-Parks-extreme-environments-photos-by-the.png

A scientist will attempt to turn seismic activity—recorded in real time at Yellowstone National Park—into music during an ambitious live performance on Tuesday, May 9.

Dr. Domenico Vicinanza, a Senior Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, England, is a leading expert in data sonification, which is the process of converting scientific measurements into sound, and the event will be the first time that data sonification using live geophysical data has been attempted on stage.

During the performance at the 2023 Internet2 Community Exchange conference in Atlanta, Georgia, which brings together universities and researchers from across the United States and beyond, Dr. Vicinanza will access seismographic data being recorded by the US Geological Survey in Yellowstone National Park. The music will be produced live on stage with the help of a computer program developed by Dr. Vicinanza, which will map the seismographic data to musical notes. It will then be performed by Dr. Alyssa Schwartz, Visiting Assistant Professor of Flute and Musicology at Fairmont State University.

https://internet2.edu/2023-internet2-community-exchange/

Yellowstone is one of the most seismically active areas of the United States, with as many as 3,000 earthquakes recorded annually. Earthquakes at Yellowstone often occur in "swarms", with many happening in a short space of time. This element of chance makes it impossible to predict what the music will sound like, and the duo are ready for whatever nature throws at them.

"Music, and sound in general, can be a really useful way of experiencing science—for scientists as well as the general public,” said Dr Vicinanza. “After all, our ears are much more sensitive to small changes than our eyes.”

“Every pattern, spike, or sudden change in the music is a direct representation of what is happening at that spot in Yellowstone at that time. Rather than just looking at a seismograph, we can listen to it, and that's an incredible thing."

MIT Breakthrough Creates World’s Smallest Holographic Microscope

http://images.synopsys.com/is/image/synopsys/glossary-osg-pic-image?qlt=82&wid=1200&ts=1663621716199&$responsive$&fit=constrain&dpr=off

Scientists at MIT’s Singapore-based research center have built the smallest LED so far — and then used it to create the world’s smallest holographic microscope, a breakthrough that foreshadows a future in which smartphones could do high-res microscopy.

Chips of light: In most of our devices, currents of electrons travel across microchips, where tiny features called “transistors” act as on/off switches controlling their flow — but electronic microchips aren’t the only kind.

There are also photonic microchips, which manipulate the flow of tiny particles of light. Those chips have several advantages over electronic ones, including faster data transmission, less heat generation, and a smaller size.

http://www.freethink.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/holographic-microscope-thumb.jpg?resize=500,281

One thing holding photonic microchips back has been the need for the light source to usually come from off the chip, which reduces the chips’ efficiency and limits their scalability.

To solve this issue, researchers at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) developed the world’s smallest light emitting diode (LED) — less than a millimeter wide.

To create the world’s smallest holographic microscope, the SMART team not only integrated their LED into the microchip, but also developed a novel algorithm to improve its resolution to 20 microns — about one-fifth the diameter of a strand of hair.

A holographic microscope’s primary components are a light source, a microchip, and an image sensor, while an optical microscope requires light, lenses, and mirrors. This allows holographic microscopes to be cheaper and more compact, as well as more portable.

SMART’s tiny LEDs could have even more uses beyond microscopy, both in photonic microchips and perhaps in light-controlled medical implants, which have been used to control hunger, relieve pain, and more in animal studies.

“Our breakthrough represents a proof of concept that could be hugely impactful for numerous applications requiring the use of micro-LEDs,” said lead author Iksung Kang.

Transformed into the petals of a flower, 16 exposures show the passage of day into night in this creative timelapse skyscape. Start at the top and move counterclockwise to follow consecutive moments as the twilight sky turns an ever darker blue and night blossoms. Each exposure was recorded on the evening of April 22, calculated to maintain a consistent balance of light and color. Close to the western horizon on that date, a crescent Moon and Venus are the two brightest celestial beacons. Petal to petal the pair spiral closer to the flower's center. In silhouette around the center of the twilight flower are Sicily's megalithic rocks of Argimusco.

Hole-puncher in New Jersey House Confirmed to be 4.6 Billion-year-old Meteorite

"It was clear it was not an Earth rock."

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/62MegN5wMsAoZQFQxkZXLS-485-40.jpeg

A metallic-looking rock that smashed through the roof of a residential home in New Jersey's Hopewell Township earlier this week is indeed a meteorite — a rare one about 4.6 billion years old, scientists confirmed on Thursday (May 11).

"It was obvious right away from looking at it that it was a meteorite in a class called stony chondrite," Nathan Magee, chair of the physics department at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ), whose office was contacted by the Hopewell Township police soon after the rock was found on Monday (May 8).

Chondrites are primitive rocks that make up 85% of meteorites found on Earth. Most chondrites found to date have been discovered in Antarctica; only rarely does one crash in populated areas.

The New Jersey rock, which is about 6 inches long by 4 inches wide (15 by 10 centimeters), is a notable exception. It slammed into the Hopewell Township house, dented the floorboard, punched two holes in the ceiling and was still warm when it was discovered by Suzy Kop in her father's bedroom around noon on Monday.

"I'm looking up on the ceiling and there's these two holes, and I'm like, 'What in the world has happened here?'" Kop told local news.

The Race Is On

Researchers Announce 62 New Moons of Saturn

http://cdn.geekwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/191007-saturn-tease.png

The work of an international team of astronomers has resulted in the announcement of 62 new moons of Saturn, catapulting it back into first place over Jupiter, who took the lead just months ago (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?3596-Up-At-The-Ranch-And-Beyond&p=1541841&viewfull=1#post1541841) in the "moon race" around the giant planets of our solar system. The team is led by Edward Ashton (currently a postdoctoral fellow at Taiwan's Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics).

Over the past two decades, Saturn's surroundings have been repeatedly examined for moons with increasing sensitivity. In this latest study, Dr. Ashton's team used a technique known as "shift and stack" in order to find fainter (and thus smaller) saturnian moons. This method has been used for moon searches around Neptune and Uranus, but never for Saturn.

To be absolutely sure, the object must be tracked for several years before one can establish that it is certainly orbiting the planet. After painstakingly matching objects detected on different nights over two years, the team has managed to track 63 objects, thus confirming them as new moons. One of the new moons, designated S/2019 S 1, was announced back in 2021, with the rest being announced over the last couple of weeks.

UFO History :nerd: w/Charles Lear

AudioBlog: A UFO Landing at Edwards AFB?

Gordon Cooper, youngest of the original Mercury astronauts, often spoke publicly about his UFO sightings and beliefs. In James Fox's 2003 film In Out of the Blue, he is heard telling a story about a flying saucer with three retractable legs that was filmed landing in 1957 at Edwards Air Force Base. He didn’t claim to have witnessed the landing himself, but did say he saw the footage. There was an incident involving the filming of a UFO at Edwards that year, and there is a Project Blue Book file on the case …

Putin Pastries for Peace

Russian Confectioner Fined for Anti-War Cakes Vows to Keep Baking

http://static.themoscowtimes.com/image/article_1360/b5/63453454354-1.jpg

A Moscow confectioner fined for making cakes decorated with anti-war slogans told The Moscow Times that she plans to keep opposing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine despite harassment from pro-war figures and the risk of jail.

Anastasia Chernysheva was ordered to pay 35,000 rubles ($446) last month on charges of “discrediting” the military over cakes with the blue-and-yellow of the Ukrainian flag and messages like “F*** war,” “Freedom to Russia, peace to Ukraine” and “Putin will die, but we will remain.”

“When the [discreditation] law was passed, I didn’t think they would be coming for literally everyone,” said Chernysheva, 22.

“But I realized that at some point they would come for me, and they did.”

Chernysheva, who did not deny the charges, was found guilty by Moscow’s Izmailovo district court the day after her detention. If convicted a second time under the country’s wartime censorship laws, she could be sent to prison for up to seven years.

Since the court’s decision, Chernysheva said she has switched her and her bakery’s social media pages to private to avoid online harassment.

In the meantime, she will continue baking — and trying to get her anti-war message across in more creative and subtle ways.

“Until I get jailed, I’m just planning to bake cakes,” she said.

Jupiter's Swirls from Juno by Kevin M. Gill

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2305/JupiterSwirls_JunoGill_960.jpg

Big storms are different on Jupiter. On Earth, huge hurricanes and colossal cyclones are centered on regions of low pressure, but on Jupiter, it is the high-pressure, anti-cyclone storms that are the largest. On Earth, large storms can last weeks, but on Jupiter they can last years. On Earth, large storms can be as large as a country, but on Jupiter, large storms can be as large as planet Earth. Both types of storms are known to exhibit lightning. The featured image of Jupiter's clouds was composed from images and data captured by the robotic Juno spacecraft as it swooped close to the massive planet in August 2020. A swirling white oval is visible nearby, while numerous smaller cloud swirls extend into the distance. On Jupiter, light-colored clouds are usually higher up than dark clouds. Despite their differences, studying storm clouds on distant Jupiter provides insights into storms and other weather patterns on familiar Earth.

Garry Nolan's 100% - Need to Know

With Ross on assignment, Bryce has found a worthy fill-in: Chrissy Newton, Founder of VOCAB Communications and Podcaster for The Debrief. A self-described UFO/UAP fanatic since age six, the Toronto native hosts the podcast "Rebelliously Curious with Chrissy Newton." Among the items on the table in this episode: "Confirmation" vs. "Disclosure," an upcoming NASA meeting dedicated to the UAP issue, and the future of of Sean Kirkpatrick's career. He's the guy who runs AARO, All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, who testified to the Senate Intelligence Committee last month that he'd seen no evidence of extra-terrestrial contact in the UAP data so far. This is in stark contrast to what Stanford University professor Garry Nolan said at a conference last week when asked how sure he was that extraterrestrial life was here on Earth now and that crash wreckage and reverse engineering was on-going, he said, a "hundred percent."

Rare Full Parhelic Circle

A parhelic circle is an unforgettable sight. Thin and pale, it circles the zenith in a majestic arc, always keeping the same distance above the horizon. Two days ago, R. J Cobain saw this one over Conlig, Northern Ireland.

"I was shaking as I took as many photos as I could," says Corbin. "By combining 11 photos I was able to capture the full circle."

This was part of a great display of ice halos widely seen and reported across Northern Ireland and Northern England on May 28th. A weather system blanketed the region with a rare mixture of gem-like ice crystals in wispy cirrus clouds. Sunlight shining through the crystals produced a stunning variety of forms.

The Red River of Cusco

Every year, visitors of Peru’s Vilcanota mountain range are treated to a unique natural phenomenon, a river running blood red through the pristine rocky valleys of Cusco.

http://www.odditycentral.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/red-river-cusco2.jpg

Located approximately 100 kilometers from the city of Cusco, near the well-known Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain, the red river is known as Palquella Pucamayu by the locals. It only runs red for about 5 kilometers before mixing with other streams and small rivers in the area, at which point the color becomes diluted, losing its unique hue.

The best time to see the red river in person is during the rainy season (December – April), because the color of the water is directly influenced by the level of precipitation. For most of the year, Palquella Pucamayu is a muddy-brown color, but during the rainy season, large quantities of soil rich in iron oxide are carried down from mountains and color the water bright red.

The Sky This Week

Saturday, June 3: Full moon near Antares (all night)

When the nearly full moon clears rooftops towards the southeast in the late evening on Saturday, June 3, it will be shining several finger-widths to the lower left of Scorpius' brightest star, Antares. As the hours pass the moon's easterly orbital motion will carry it farther from reddish Antares and the diurnal motion of the sky will lift the moon higher than the star.

Saturday, June 3: Venus at greatest eastern elongation (after sunset)

On Saturday, June 3 and the following evening, Venus will officially be at its maximum separation of 45 degrees east of the sun for its current lengthy apparition.

Sunday, June 4: Full Strawberry Moon (at 11:42 p.m. EDT)

The moon will officially reach its full phase at 03:42 GMT on Sunday, June 3, which converts to 11:42 p.m. EDT and 8:42 p.m. PDT on Saturday night. The June full moon, colloquially known as the Strawberry Moon, Mead Moon, Rose Moon, Birthing Moon, or Hot Moon, always shines in or near the stars of Sagittarius, the Archer.

The indigenous Ojibwe people of the Great Lakes region call this moon Ode'miin Giizis, the Strawberry Moon. For the Cree Nation it's Opiniyawiwipisim, the Egg Laying Moon (referring to the activities of wild water-fowl). The Mohawks call it Ohiarí:Ha, the Fruits are Small Moon. The Cherokee call it Tihaluhiyi, the Green Corn Moon, when crops are growing.

Unique Albino Panda Spotted in China

http://www.sciencealert.com/images/2023/06/UniqueWhitePanda.jpg

The world's first and only albino panda finally lumbered past a motion-sensitive field camera in the mountains of China earlier this year – the first time it's been spotted since 2019. Thankfully, the unique creature seems to be growing up happy and healthy in the Wolong National Nature Reserve, a protected region in the Sichuan province that is home to roughly 150 giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca).

But only this one is known to be white.

The albino panda's sex hasn't yet been determined, but researchers say it is almost the size of an adult now and shows signs of sexual maturity.

Even though it's the black sheep of the panda community, it seems to fit in just fine. In footage from February, recently aired by China's state broadcaster, the all-white panda was shown interacting with a mother panda and her roughly two-year-old cub as they nestled in the hollow of a tree.

Would You Lie in Bed for 2 Months for Human Space Exploration? These 12 People Will

It won’t exactly be restful

http://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2023/5/24/985c07a5-b24e-45fe-b49d-4a3053b40d16-cycling_on_a_centrifuge_for_space_research.gif

If you want to experience the less glamorous side of space travel, try laying in bed for two months straight. Yes, seriously — a trip to space has very similar effects on your body to being bedridden.

Weakened bones, loss of muscle mass, and changes in blood flow are common when someone spends a prolonged period of time lying down. Such is the same when an astronaut lives in zero gravity. That’s why researchers use bed rest tests on Earth to better understand how spending time in space affects astronauts. Most recently, the European Space Agency announced a new experiment where 12 people will lie horizontally for 60 days. But they won’t exactly be resting. Participants will complete frequent exercise tests and be constantly monitored by experts.

The commitment to staying in bed means that participants will literally never get up, even to go to the bathroom or bathe. Their heads will be slightly reclined at a six-degree angle to mimic the lack of gravity that astronauts constantly experience off Earth.

But to counteract the effects of a sedentary lifestyle, participants will try cycling while lying down to get their blood flowing. The ESA notes that this will be the first bed rest test in Europe where researchers will determine if cycling can help counteract the negative effects of zero gravity.

Some will cycle while being spun around in a centrifuge to create artificial gravity. If spinning while cycling has a greater impact on preserving physiological health, then astronauts might use a similar setup on space missions in the future.

Meet the Scientist (sort of) Spending a Year on Mars

http://scx1.b-cdn.net/csz/news/800a/2023/a-portion-of-mars-dune.jpg
Inside Mars Dune Alpha

Living on Mars wasn't exactly a childhood dream for Canadian biologist Kelly Haston, though she'll soon spend a year preparing for just that.

"We are just going to pretend that we're there," the 52-year-old told AFP, summing up her participation in an exercise simulating a long stay on the Red Planet.

At the end of June, she will be one of the four volunteers stepping into a Houston, Texas, Martian habitat (called Mars Dune Alpha) that will be their home for the next 12 months.

"It still sometimes seems a bit unreal to me," she laughs.

For NASA, which has carefully selected the participants, these long-term experiments make it possible to evaluate the behavior of a crew in an isolated and confined environment, ahead of a real mission in future.

Participants will face equipment failures and water limitations, the space agency has warned—as well as some "surprises," according to Haston.

Their communications with the outside world will suffer from the delays that exist between Earth and Mars—up to 20 minutes one-way, depending on the planets' positions—and 40 minutes two ways.

http://media.licdn.com/dms/image/C5603AQF2X5bA3mxMzA/profile-displayphoto-shrink_200_200/0/1584901456934?e=1691020800&v=beta&t=YQLZxBJ4aXnm7u2ETe0yljXZHtGnLj1kHJVrF7Zqq4w

What worries the Canadian most is how she will manage being away from family. She'll only be able to keep in regular touch through email, and only rarely via videos, but never live. She'll miss being outside and getting to see mountains and the sea.

To cope, she plans to draw on her past experiences, such as a research expedition in Africa where she studied the genetic characteristics of frogs around Lake Victoria. She spent several months sleeping in cars and tents, without reliable cell phone coverage.

The crew will have to don their suits to do "spacewalks"—"probably one of the things that I'm looking forward to the most," says Haston, a registered member of the Mohawk Nation.

"I'm very excited about this, but I'm also realistic for what the challenge is."

A puzzling piece of footage circulating online shows what appears to be a ghost exiting the back room of a butcher shop moments before a knife inexplicably falls from a table. The peculiar video was reportedly captured by a security camera in the city of Chaco and subsequently found its way onto TikTok. In the footage, which has gone viral on social media in Argentina, a dark figure can be seen quickly exiting the room as a butcher shop employee walks past a long metal table covered in meat. Suddenly, a knife falls from the floor as if it has been pushed by an unseen force, leaving a second employee baffled.

When the workers later looked at the security footage, they were surprised to see the mysterious stranger exiting the back room prior to when the knife tumbled from the table. Upon closer examination of the video, they were all the more bewildered when they noticed that the eerie figure appears to be transparent as only their upper body is visible in the video while the table can be clearly seen where their legs should be.

Mars in Colour as Never Seen Before

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/fkQChWqPV69hWseEivmcdU-485-40.jpeg

Exactly 20 years ago, on 2 June 2003, the Mars Express spacecraft, the first European mission to explore another planet in the Solar System, launched on a Soyuz launch vehicle from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. A Fregat upper stage delivered the mission on a transfer orbit to Mars, which the spacecraft reached on 25 December of the same year. The High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC), developed at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fur Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) and operated by the DLR Institute of Planetary Research, is one of seven experiments on board.

The mission was originally only supposed to last one martian year (approximately two Earth years), but the success of the instruments, which continue to work flawlessly, has prompted the European Space Agency (ESA) to extend the mission again and again, most recently until the end of 2026. On 19 October 2023, Mars Express will have orbited Mars 25,000 times in its elliptical orbit. To mark the 20th anniversary of the launch, a celebration will take place today, 2 June, at ESA's European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt at the end of a scientific and technical symposium.

To acquire its usual surface images, the HRSC normally photographs Mars from an altitude of approximately 300 kilometres, at roughly the point in its elliptical orbit at which the Mars Express spacecraft is closest to the planet. The resulting views of the martian surface have a spatial resolution of up to 12.5 meters per pixel and cover areas approximately 50 kilometres wide. Thanks to its four colour channels (red, green, blue, infrared) and five panchromatic nadir, stereo and photometric channels, the stereo camera can visualise Mars in three dimensions and also in colour.

Unexplained Lights in the Sky - The Huntington Park UFO Sightings May 10, 2023

http://www.latest-ufo-sightings.net//wp-content/uploads/2016/12/cropped-ufo-header.png

On a tranquil evening on May 10, 2023, the skies over Huntington Park, California, were illuminated with an enigmatic spectacle that left residents awestruck and eager for explanations. A series of unprecedented UFO sightings, featuring hovering lights and intriguing geometric formations, have sparked a whirlwind of speculation and intrigue among both locals and UFO enthusiasts worldwide.

Witnesses to this extraordinary event reported an initial sighting of a cluster of lights hovering on the horizon. Without any apparent warning or pattern, these mysterious lights suddenly ascended vertically, tracing a path across the night sky that captivated every eye turned skyward.

Yet the spectacle was just beginning. In a breathtaking display, the lights converged to form a distinct triangular pattern. As if choreographed by an unseen hand, they held this formation briefly before they gradually faded, their luminescence merging with the dark canvas of the night sky.

No sooner had the first triangle of lights disappeared than a second set began its ascent. Following the same vertical trajectory as the first, this group of lights echoed its predecessors in a captivating dance. They too coalesced into a triangle formation, leaving onlookers spellbound at this twice-performed aerial spectacle.

In 2015, researchers in the Netherlands performing a CT scan on a statue of a sitting Buddha discovered the last thing they were expecting to find. The statue contained a monk that had been mummified for 1,000 years. Rather than simply placing the monk inside the statue, researchers discovered that the monk was filled with scraps of paper covered in Chinese characters. In order to mummify oneself a monk would take on a special diet of poisonous tea in order to ensure that the body would be too toxic to be consumed by maggots. It’s rare that a monk could accomplish such a feat, but the few who pulled it off were revered within the community.

Europeans are still trying to wrap their minds around what happened after sunset on April 23, 2023. Everyone knew that a CME was coming; photographers were already outside waiting for auroras. But when the auroras appeared, they were very strange.

“I had never seen anything quite like it,” says Heiko Ulbricht of Saxony, Germany. “The auroras began to tear themselves apart, pulsating as they formed individual blobs that floated high in the sky.”

“It literally took my breath away,” he says. “My pulse was still racing hours later!” The same blobs were sighted in France and Poland, and in Denmark they were caught flashing like a disco strobe light.

Ordinary auroras don’t act like this.

Indeed, “these were not ordinary auroras,” confirms space physicist Toshi Nishimura of Boston University. “They are called ‘proton auroras,’ and they come from Earth’s ring current system.”

Most people don’t realize that Earth has rings. Unlike Saturn’s rings, which are vast disks of glittering ice, Earth’s rings are invisible to the naked eye. They are made of electricity–a donut-shaped circuit carrying millions of amps around our planet. The ring current skims the orbits of geosynchronous satellites and plays a huge role in determining the severity of geomagnetic storms.

http://spaceweatherarchive.files.wordpress.com/2023/05/ringcurrent.jpg

Ring Current: The ring current is a population of medium-energy particles that drift around the Earth, with protons drifting in one direction, and electrons drifting in the opposite direction.

Plasmasphere: The plasmasphere is composed of low-energy particles that drift up from the ionosphere, forming a sphere-like reservoir of very cold, fairly dense plasma that co-rotates with the Earth.

Van Allen Radiation Belts: The Van Allen Belts consist of high-energy particles that are trapped in two regions. These particles move along the field lines toward the poles until they are reflected back, creating a bouncing movement. Particles with a high enough velocity along the magnetic field will follow the field lines to the poles and enter the upper atmosphere.

...Mysterious “Aurora Blobs” Explained...

Here are some local superstitions around the Northern Lights:

Mythology of the Northern Lights
...
In Sweden, the Aurora was often seen as a portent of good news. Many of our Swedish forefathers believed the lights to be a gift from benevolent gods providing warmth and light in the form of a volcano in the north. Elsewhere in the country they were believed to be the light reflection from large shoals of herring and bode well for the local fishermen and the Swedish farming community saw the lights as heralding a good harvest in the coming year.

The Northern Lights feature prominently in Norse mythology. One legend suggests that the lights were reflections or glow from the shields and armour of the Valkyrie, female warriors who would choose who may die in battle and who may live to fight another day. Dying in battle seemed to occupy Norse mythology quite a bit and the Aurora was also believed to be “Bifrost Bridge”, a glowing and pulsating arch which led those fallen in battle to the warriors final resting place in Valhalla.
...
https://www.theaurorazone.com/about-the-aurora/aurora-legends

Addendum
But it's not just superstition, there's also even more superstition: northern lights phenomenon, but spread more globally, features in some doomsday prophesies. Some follow doomsday prophesies most people prefer not to... this is for all my fellow the end of the world is neigh-ers. :blushing: :cake:

3 Orbs Over Thunderstorm Dallas, Texas Seen From Plane! 4-20-2023

Eyewitness:

I was on a flight to Dallas and we went around a huge storm system at about 30,000 feet. While observing the thunderstorm I saw 2 white circles above the thunderstorm then disappear. It was moving in a non linear fashion. Then about a minute later I saw them again and turned to the passengers next to me and asked them to look out the window and tell me I’m not crazy. They both saw it and they moved from the top of the thunderstorm directly upward and also a non linear fashion and disappeared again. So I decided to film the thunderstorm to see if I saw the 2 objects again and I did.

This month, bright Mars and brilliant Venus are the prominent celestial beacons in planet Earth's western skies after sunset. Wandering through the constellation Cancer the Crab, the Red Planet was captured here on the evening of June 3 near the stars of open cluster Messier 44. Recognized since antiquity this nearby, naked-eye star cluster is also known as the Praesepe or the Beehive cluster. A swarm of stars all much younger than the Sun, the Beehive cluster is a mere 600 light-years distant. Seen with a yellowish hue, Mars is about 17 light-minutes away. On June 12/13 Venus will take its turn posing next to the stars of the Beehive cluster.

US-German Satellites Show California Water Gains After Record Winter

http://www.spxdaily.com/images-hg/grace-fo-california-water-gain-oct-22-mar-23-hg.jpg

Thanks to a wet winter, California saw tremendous gains in the amount of water in the San Joaquin, Sacramento, and Tulare river basins (outlined in yellow) from October 2022 to March 2023, GRACE-FO data shows. The measurement includes water in lakes, rivers, reservoirs, snowpack, and groundwater aquifers.

After years of intense drought and diminishing groundwater, California just saw its greatest year-over-year water gains in two decades, according to data from the GRACE-FO (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment Follow-On) satellite mission, a partnership between NASA and the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ). This past winter's bonanza of atmospheric rivers alleviated some of the water deficit that the state incurred during periods of drought over the last 10 years, which included the three driest years on record in California.

Think of the state's Central Valley region (outlined in yellow, above) as a giant swimming pool: GRACE-FO measurements include all the water contained in the lakes, rivers, soil, snowpack, and underground aquifers within that region. Between October 2022 and March 2023, storms provided enough water to raise the amount of water within the "swimming pool" by about 20 inches (about 500 millimeters).

That's about twice as much as the average winter water gain since satellite-based water storage measurements began in 2002 with the first GRACE mission.

While surface water basins are filling, underground stores of fresh water (aquifers) that are tapped for irrigation and other needs could take years to fully recharge.

I agree, William. I checked out another song from that album as well. The lyrics are telling.

"The Illusion"

In the blood-red corridors of power
Will a gentle lama ever walk?
In the heartless temples of the state
Will a gentle lama ever talk?

Chances are nothing will ever change
Far too many jobs would be at stake
Secret armies watch us day and night
Far too few sitting for Buddha's sake

Ah! But all's illusion, we are one
Life is but a dream, no birth, no death
We will contemplate the evernow
Soul sister and brother of the breath (breath)

May our merit as we meditate
Shine a light on all who cannot see
Dedicate our work, it is our fate
To know what we are in reality

Ah! But all's illusion, we are one
Life is but a dream, no birth, no death
We who contemplate the evernow
Soul sister and brother of the breath (breath)

In the blood-red corridors of power

A MEGA-BUBBLE IN THE SUN'S ATMOSPHERE

Last week, NOAA released a list of space weather highlights so far from Solar Cycle 25. Visually, the most spectacular was an X1-class solar flare on Oct. 28, 2021, which blew a mega-bubble in the sun's atmosphere:

http://www.spaceweather.com/images2023/11jun23/bubble.gif
https://www.spaceweather.com/

NOAA's GOES-16 satellite recorded the event using an extreme ultraviolet telescope called the Solar Ultraviolet Imager (SUVI). Compared to NASA's better-known Solar Dynamics Observatory, SUVI has a wider field of view which allows it to capture extremely large structures like this.

The expanding bubble pushed a CME out of the sun's atmosphere. At the time, space weather forecasters predicted it would hit Earth and trigger a strong geomagnetic storm. That's not what happened, though. The CME passed mostly south of our planet, delivering only a glancing blow. The resulting G1-class geomagnetic storm on Oct. 31, 2021, was a minor event with only a brief display auroras over Canada.

NOAA's list of highlights will grow longer in the years ahead. Solar Cycle 25 is still a relatively young cycle with maximum activity expected in 2024-2025. The next mega-bubble might have better aim. Stay tuned!

Pope Pius XII Helped Cover Up UFO Crash?

Pope Pius XII helped cover up a UFO crash that happened in Italy in the 1930s, former US intelligence officer David Grusch claims.

https://www.femalefirst.co.uk/image-library/partners/bang/land/1000/p/pope-pius-xii-covered-up-a-ufo-crash-in-italy-aW1hZ2VzMS8yMD.jpg

Former US intelligence officer David Grusch has claimed that the Vatican was involved in concealing the first UFO that crash-landed on Earth 90 years ago in Italy.

Grusch suggested that the Pope - who reigned from 1939 until his death in 1958 - acted as a go-between during World War II to make sure that the craft was moved from Italy to the United States.

The former intelligence officer - who alleges that the US Government secretly kept debris from crashed UFOs - said: "1933 was the first recovery in Europe - in Magenta, Italy. They recovered a partially intact vehicle and the Italian government moved it to a secure airbase in Italy until around 1944-1945.

"The Pope back-channelled that and told the Americans what the Italians had and we ended up scooping it."

Asked if the Catholic Church was aware of "non-human" existence on Earth, Grusch replied: "Certainly."

While new, the Moon is traveling between Earth and the sun. Since sunlight can only shine on the far side of the Moon, and the Moon is in the same region of the sky as the sun, it becomes completely hidden from view from anywhere on Earth for about a day. After the new moon phase, Earth's celestial night-light will return to shine as a crescent in the western evening sky.

The US Gov Is Giving Away Lighthouses For Free

While they are no longer a navigational necessity, the guiding lights have histories worth preserving

The Cleveland Harbor West Pierhead Light is one of the lighthouses the U.S. government is giving away this year.

In the early 19th century, sailors making their way to Providence, Rhode Island, depended on the signal of the Warwick Neck Light to safely find their way. While it no longer carries the navigational significance it once did, the 51-foot tower continues to preside over Narragansett Bay from its clifftop perch. Now, this historical property’s dramatic views could be yours.

For hundreds of years, lighthouses have welcomed travelers to the shores of the United States. However, the advent of navigation technologies like GPS has left many of the shore’s sentinels without a practical purpose. Since the passage of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act in 2000, the GSA has been transferring ownership of lighthouses “no longer critical to the U.S. Coast Guard’s mission needs” to groups willing to preserve them, according to a statement from the agency.

“People really appreciate the heroic role of the solitary lighthouse keeper,” says John Kelly of the GSA’s office of real property disposition. “They were really the instruments to provide safe passage into some of these perilous harbors which afforded communities great opportunities for commerce, and they’re often located in prominent locations that offer breathtaking views.”

At many lighthouses, upkeep is challenging: Two of the structures up for auction, the Penfield Reef Lighthouse in Fairfield, Connecticut, and the Stratford Shoal Light in the middle of the Long Island Sound, are accessible only by boat.

“They’re such unusual reflections of our history that it takes a certain kind of person who wants to be a part of that,” said Robin Carnahan, administrator of the GSA.

Other lighthouses going to auction this year include the Cleveland Harbor West Pierhead Light in Cleveland, Ohio, and the Keweenaw Waterway Lower Entrance Light in Chassell, Michigan. The list of transfer-eligible lighthouses includes Lynde Point Lighthouse in Old Saybrook, Connecticut; Plymouth/Gurnet Lighthouse in Plymouth, Massachusetts; Little Mark Island and Monument in Harpswell, Maine; and Erie Harbor North Pier Lighthouse in Erie, Pennsylvania.

Key Building Blocks for Life Found in Saturn's Moon Enceladus

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/rq8VeLYPLhzeSv5v7jYFFK-970-80.jpg

http://www.spxdaily.com/images/saturndaily-100-12.jpg

The search for extraterrestrial life in our solar system just got more exciting. A team of scientists including Southwest Research Institute's Dr. Christopher Glein has discovered new evidence that the subsurface ocean of Saturn's moon Enceladus contains a key building block for life. The team directly detected phosphorus in the form of phosphates originating from the moon's ice-covered global ocean using data from NASA's Cassini mission. Cassini explored Saturn and its system of rings and moons for over 13 years.

"In 2020 (published in 2022), we used geochemical modeling to predict that phosphorus should be abundant in Enceladus' ocean," said Glein, a leading expert in extraterrestrial oceanography. He is a co-author of a paper in the journal Nature describing this research. "Now, we have found abundant phosphorus in plume ice samples spraying out of the subsurface ocean."

Phosphorus in the form of phosphates is vital for all life on Earth. It is essential for the creation of DNA and RNA, energy-carrying molecules, cell membranes, bones and teeth in people and animals, and even the sea's microbiome of plankton. Life as we know it is simply not possible without phosphates.

Gigantic, 9.4-Foot-Long Catfish is the Largest Ever Caught

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/X8NEXPT9LhMSeSnrEAtUiY-970-80.jpeg

Whiskered, marble-skinned giants lurk in the murky waters of Italy's longest river. These behemoths are prized targets for anglers, but a fisher recently hooked a truly colossal individual — and it may be the biggest ever found.

Alessandro Biancardi, an Italian angler, pulled an enormous, 9.4-foot-long (2.85 meters) catfish from the shallow waters of the River Po in the Lombardy region of northern Italy. The catch beats the previous world record for the largest wels catfish (Silurus glanis) ever caught by 1.6 inches (4 centimeters).

"When it surfaced for the first time, I really realized that I hooked a monster," Biancardi wrote in a statement. "I was alone facing the biggest catfish I ever seen in 23 years."

Wels catfish are the largest freshwater fish in Europe, excluding species that migrate inland from the sea to breed, known as anadromous species. The prized fish are native to Central and Eastern Europe but have been introduced to other parts of the continent in the last 25 years, with populations mushrooming in major rivers across Italy, France and Spain.

The River Po, which meanders across northern Italy and through the cities of Turin and Piacenza, is a hotspot for extremely large catfish. The last record-breaking catch, a 9.2-foot-long (2.81 m) wels catfish, was also pulled from the Po on April 12.

Forest Fungi Overheard Talking to Each Other After Rain Showers

https://cid-inc.com/app/uploads/2020/12/7657296208_034ec78255_o.jpg

Whether they’re hacking the brains of bugs (true) or mining for gold (also true), fungi are craftier than we give them credit for. Now researchers in Japan have studied how forest mushrooms communicate with each other, and found that they're mostly chatty when it rains.

Ectomycorrhizal fungi don’t just grow as capped stalks above ground – they form vast networks of roots that stretch out underground and absorb key nutrients from the soil to feed themselves and other plants in a symbiotic relationship.

But this mycelial network also seems to be used for communication between stalks and neighboring plants, coordinating growth or warning of insects or disease. Intriguing as it is, scientific study of the phenomenon has been patchy, and often limited to lab tests.

So for the new study, researchers at Tohoku University in Japan conducted field tests on Laccaria bicolor, small tan-colored mushrooms that grow on forest floors. The team attached electrodes to the mushrooms and measured the electrical signals they passed between each other.

http://assets.newatlas.com/dims4/default/a0a8ee9/2147483647/strip/true/crop/662x441+121+0/resize/840x560!/quality/90/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnewatlas-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F46%2F1e%2F0fb517864d7f94fa8441691b0656%2Fmushrooms-chatty.jpeg

They noticed that the electrical signals fluctuated over time, and seemed to correlate with changes in temperature and moisture, with the signals consistently spiking after rainfall.

RE: Defence Research and Development Canada in possession of recovered UAP material

Dear Minister Anand,

It has come to my attention through meetings with American officials that the United States Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and Senate Committee on Armed Services have been undertaking in-camera hearings with government and military subject matter experts on the recovery and exploitation of physical material from Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).

I am concerned that expected upcoming public announcements will be coordinated between AUKUS, which could damage Canada's credibility with our allies and the Canadian public on the global stage. There is an opportunity to have a prepared communication plan in place by May 2023 to reduce this risk.

As Minister of National Defence, you may not be aware Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) has participated in efforts to analyze UAP, which is publicly traceable to circa 1950. This recovered foreign material is studied through the Five Eyes Foreign Material Program (FMP) which, in Canada, is sponsored by the Canadian Forces Intelligence Command aligned with several intelligence sharing arrangements and treaties. I am writing to recommend you request a classified briefing, containing full sensitive and protected program information from your officials on the Government of Canada's historical and ongoing efforts on analyzing recovered UAP material.

Canada's Chief Science Advisor has also launched the Sky Canada Project, which is investigating how the Government of Canada manages UAP reports. They are in the process of identifying key Canadian stakeholder institutions. It is essential the Chief Science Advisor be given full access to defense programs and be briefed on the collaborative scientific research efforts with our allies.

It is imperative the Government of Canada have a communications plan to respond to these upcoming public revelations that will stem from these American FMPS. Not only are there national security and aviation safety concerns that need to be addressed, but there will also be a larger debate about why there is a lack of transparency and accountability regarding UAP programs and policy.

I also believe there must be Parliamentary oversight of efforts by government institutions, and responsible Ministers should be fully briefed on this program, including releasable-to-the-public content that aligns with allied public disclosures. It is incumbent your department inform you of what collaborative efforts have occurred with our allies and the details of existing Agreements and Memorandums of Understanding that govern the program and may have been coordinated through Global Affairs.

Canada’s credibility with our allies and the Canadian public must transcend politics and I firmly believe we can work together in a bipartisan manner. Regardless of the classified details of specific FMPs, the public revelations by these subject matter experts who have testified before Congress present an opportunity for the Government of Canada to take a visible leadership role in confirming the existence of recovered material and balancing our national security obligations.

I look forward to your response and if you seek any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

Sincerely,

(Signature)

The Night Sky – Summer Solstice – First Day of Summer

On Wednesday, June 21 at 10:58 a.m. EDT or 7:58 a.m. PDT and 14:58 GMT, the sun will reach its northernmost declination for the year, delivering the maximum daylight hours of the year for the Northern Hemisphere and the minimum daylight hours of the year for the Southern Hemisphere. The June summer solstice marks the beginning of the summer season in the Northern Hemisphere, and winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

In the lower part of the western sky on Wednesday night, June 21, the gorgeous waxing crescent moon will form a triangle to the right (or celestial north) of extremely bright, white Venus and the much fainter, reddish planet Mars.

Mori3: A Polygon, Shapeshifting, Origami-Inspired Robot for Space Travel

Jamie Paik and her team of researchers at EPFL’s School of Engineering have created an origami-like robot that can change shape, move around and interact with objects and people.

By combining inspiration from the digital world of polygon meshing and the biological world of swarm behavior, the Mori3 robot can morph from 2D triangles into almost any 3D object. The EPFL research, which has been published in Nature Machine Intelligence, shows the promise of modular robotics for space travel.

“Our aim with Mori3 is to create a modular, origami-like robot that can be assembled and disassembled at will depending on the environment and task at hand,” says Jamie Paik, director of the Reconfigurable Robotics Lab. “Mori3 can change its size, shape and function.”

Mori3 robots were designed in part to be used in spacecraft, which don’t have the room to store different robots for each individual task that needs to be carried out. The researchers hope that Mori3 robots will be used for multiple tasks, such as communication purposes and external repairs.

X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE AND CME

A new sunspot AR3341 erupted on June 20th, producing an X1.1-class solar flare (1709 UT).

http://www.spaceweather.com/images2023/20jun23/xflare_anim.gif

Radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere. This caused a deep shortwave radio blackout over North America. Aviators and ham radio operators may have noticed loss of signal at frequencies below 30 MHz for as much as 20 minutes after the flare.

SOHO coronagraphs have since detected a CME. It is the fan-shaped cloud expanding away from the sun's southeastern limb (8 o'clock position):

The CME's expansion velocity exceeds 1000 km/s (2.2 million mph), according to Type II radio bursts detected by the US Air Force. It's a fast mover that should deliver a potent blow to whatever it hits.

Saturn's Northern Hexagon

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2306/NorthSaturn_Cassini_960.jpg

Why would clouds form a hexagon on Saturn? Nobody is sure. Originally discovered during the Voyager flybys of Saturn in the 1980s, nobody has ever seen anything like it anywhere else in the Solar System. Acquiring its first sunlit views of far northern Saturn in late 2012, the Cassini spacecraft's wide-angle camera recorded this stunning image of the ringed planet's north pole. The composite of near-infrared image data results in red hues for low clouds and green for high ones, giving the Saturnian cloudscape a vivid appearance. This and similar images show the stability of the hexagon even 20+ years after Voyager. Movies of Saturn's North Pole show the cloud structure maintaining its hexagonal structure while rotating. Unlike individual clouds appearing like a hexagon on Earth, the Saturn cloud pattern appears to have six well defined sides of nearly equal length. Four Earths could fit inside the hexagon. Beyond the cloud tops at the upper right, arcs of the planet's eye-catching rings are tinted bright blue.

After creating the ultimate Optimus Prime toy, Hasbro and Robosen are back with yet another Transformers figure, and this time, it’s a 14-inch programmable robot modeled after Bumblebee. With a price tag of $399, this miniature Autobot can walk, squat, kick, lean, dance, and even pick itself up from the ground. But there is one thing it can’t do: transform.

That’s probably one of the reasons why this Bumblebee figure is several hundred dollars less than its self-transforming Optimus Prime counterpart, which costs a cool $700 plus an extra $750 for the auto-converting trailer if you really want to go all out. But if you’re okay with the fact that this bot doesn’t actually do any transforming — or are just a fan of the franchise — you’ll probably still enjoy all the other cool things it can do.

NASA's MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN) mission acquired stunning views of Mars in two ultraviolet images taken at different points along our neighboring planet's orbit around the Sun. By viewing the planet in ultraviolet wavelengths, scientists can gain insight into the Martian atmosphere and view surface features in remarkable ways.

MAVEN launched in November 2013 and entered Mars' orbit in September 2014. The mission's goal is to explore the planet's upper atmosphere, ionosphere, and interactions with the Sun and solar wind to explore the loss of the Martian atmosphere to space. Understanding atmospheric loss gives scientists insight into the history of Mars' atmosphere and climate, liquid water, and planetary habitability. The MAVEN team is preparing to celebrate the spacecraft's 10th year at Mars in September 2024.

The ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission has made its third of six gravity assist flybys at Mercury, snapping images of a newly named impact crater as well as tectonic and volcanic curiosities as it adjusts its trajectory for entering Mercury orbit in 2025.

The closest approach took place at 19:34 UTC (21:34 CEST) on June 19, 2023, about 236 km (147 miles) above the planet’s surface, on the night side of the planet.

Earth's Thermosphere Highest Temperature in 20 Years After Solar Storm Bombardment

The atmospheric temperature spike, caused by successive geomagnetic storms, suggests the "solar maximum" is fast approaching

http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/9ow6vWSYRbM36dVjZHN86E-970-80.jpg

A vibrant aurora display during a geomagnetic storm

Earth's thermosphere recently hit a near 20-year temperature peak after soaking up energy from geomagnetic storms that bashed Earth this year. The temperature in the second-highest layer of the atmosphere will likely continue to climb over the next few years as the sun's activity ramps up, which could impact Earth-orbiting satellites, experts warn.

The thermosphere extends from the top of the mesosphere, at around 53 miles (85 kilometers) above ground, to the bottom of the exosphere, which begins at around 372 miles (600 km) above the ground, according to NASA. Beyond the exosphere is outer space.

The temperature spike was caused by three geomagnetic storms in January and February — major disturbances to Earth's magnetic field that are triggered by chunks of fast-moving magnetized plasma, known as coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and less often by streams of highly charged particles, known as solar wind, which are both spat out by the sun.

Since the spike, at least two more geomagnetic storms have hit our planet — one on March 24, which was the most powerful solar storm to hit Earth for more than six years, and another equally powerful storm on April 24.
Geomagnetic storms become more frequent and intense during solar maximum, a part of the roughly 11-year solar cycle in which the sun is most active and covered in dark sunspots and plasma loops that spit out CMEs and solar wind.

As a result, Earth's thermosphere also follows a roughly 11-year cycle. Government scientists from NASA and NOAA predicted the next solar maximum will arrive in 2025, which means the warming trend will likely continue over the next few years.

Changes to the thermosphere can pose challenges for satellites in low-Earth orbit that are positioned around the thermosphere's upper boundary.

The thermosphere expands as it warms, resulting in increased aerodynamic drag on all satellites and on space debris. This increased drag can pull satellites closer to Earth, which could cause satellites to crash into one another or completely fall out of orbit, as SpaceX Starlink satellites did in February 2022 after a surprise geomagnetic storm.

Solar maximum could also arrive sooner than predicted. A recent study published Jan. 30 in the journal Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences suggests that the solar activity peak could arrive as early as late 2023 and be more powerful than initially predicted. If this scenario plays out, then the risk of a satellite disaster further increases.

UFO :nerd: History

Lonnie Zamora's UFO Sighting (1964)

In the late afternoon of April 24, 1964, Officer Lonnie Zamora found himself on a routine pursuit of a speeding vehicle south of Socorro, New Mexico. Little did he know that this would mark a pivotal moment in UFO history. His encounter would go on to baffle even the head of Project Blue Book, who would later describe it as the most perplexing UFO case he had ever encountered in his career.

Zamora's experience left an indelible mark on the world of UFO investigations. The fact that the head of Project Blue Book, the U.S. Air Force's program dedicated to studying UFO sightings, acknowledged the exceptional nature of Zamora's encounter speaks volumes. It underscored the inexplicable and puzzling aspects of the incident that defied conventional explanations.

Zamora was a credible and respected police officer with the City of Socorro Police Department.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/8f7b3ade6c59002e006e6b258a32a112.jpg

Zamora's reputation as a police officer added credibility to his account of the UFO sighting. He was known for his professionalism, integrity, and dedication to his job. Throughout his career, he had earned the respect of his colleagues and the community he served. This made his testimony all the more compelling, as he was not prone to fantasy or embellishment.

However, the incident took a toll on Zamora personally. The ridicule and teasing he faced from members of the police force and the local community weighed heavily on him. It is believed that the constant scrutiny and disbelief surrounding his UFO encounter contributed to his decision to retire just two years after the incident. The pressure and skepticism he endured likely played a role in shaping the trajectory of his life and career.

Zamora initially thought the object was a car in need of assistance and called for possible accident investigation.

As he watched, he reported a craft described as "egg-shaped" with flames and a loud roar.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/55043cabf7dc3098697eb570371ee688.jpg

Five tourists traveling through Socorro also reported seeing the object in flight.

Lonnie Zamora's UFO sighting was not an isolated event. Several other witnesses reported seeing the same craft and flames around the same time. These additional witnesses came forward independently, providing further corroboration to Zamora's account and lending credibility to the extraordinary nature of the incident.

Among the witnesses were Larry Kratzer and Paul Kies, two tourists from Dubuque, Iowa. They were driving near Socorro when they noticed something shiny and a cloud of smoke in the area. Later, when they heard news reports about Zamora's sighting, they realized the significance of what they had witnessed. Kratzer described seeing an object ascending vertically from the smoke, resembling a round, saucer, or egg-shaped craft.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/b652d3276c96a4b8915b0da2a2bbb4f0.jpg

In addition to Kratzer and Kies, there were five other tourists from Colorado who reported seeing the craft in flight. Their independent accounts further strengthened the case.

As he got closer to the landing site, Zamora's perspective changed. He realized that what he was witnessing was not a conventional vehicle but a massive, white craft that resembled a propane storage tank in shape and size. The sheer magnitude and unconventional appearance of the object left Zamora in awe and disbelief. He contacted New Mexico State Police Sergeant Samuel Chavez to assist in the investigation.

Lonnie Zamora's decision to contact New Mexico State Police Sergeant Samuel Chavez for assistance during the investigation highlighted his recognition of the need for additional expertise and support. Upon Chavez's arrival, Zamora guided him to the area where he had witnessed the unusual event. The scene presented a puzzling sight, with patches of smoldering grass and brush indicating some form of heat or combustion.

However, the investigation took an unexpected turn when federal authorities intervened and claimed jurisdiction over the case. The collected evidence was impounded and handed over to the US Air Force, who subsequently conducted their own investigation and eventually attributed the incident to natural events.

At a distance of about 50 feet, Zamora observed landing gear and a red insignia on the craft, which he later drew for authorities.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/ab2f220863f7677cb9822fad1a4ba7dd.jpg

Zamora witnessed bright blue flames and another loud roar as the object began to lift off.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/568adccdf1099c192944f669516a8521.jpg

After the incident, burned bushes and landing gear depressions were found at the site.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/850cb9f3951b2b3db6a6d1c57b8827e2.jpg

Following the incident, numerous individuals visited the site where Lonnie Zamora encountered the unidentified craft. Witnesses were able to observe the landing gear depressions left by the object, affirming Zamora's account. The physical evidence of the depressions provided tangible support for the extraordinary events that had transpired.

In addition to the landing gear depressions, burned ashes on the ground were discovered, consistent with Zamora's description of the craft's launch.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/7d032519c68098103e3ea2e27ef35748.jpg

Lonnie Zamora's UFO sighting remains one of the most extensively documented cases in the history of UFO sightings in the United States. Even the CIA evaluation of the incident, as revealed through the Freedom of Information Act, acknowledges the credibility of Zamora's account and the puzzling nature of the encounter.

Hector Quintanilla Jr., the former head of Project Blue Book, stated in the CIA brief titled "Policeman's Report" that Zamora was a reliable and respected police officer who had a deep understanding of airborne vehicles in his area. The investigation conducted by Project Blue Book and other researchers could not identify any conventional explanation or stimulus for Zamora's experience, leaving both him and the investigators puzzled.

Renowned UFO researcher J. Allen Hynek also recognized the significance of Zamora's case. In his own words, he stated that the evidence pointed to a real phenomenon of undetermined origin

The incident received significant media attention and was covered in newspapers, magazines, and books.

Over the years, various theories and ideas have been proposed to explain what Zamora witnessed. No agreement has been reached.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/d2721bd3f57dcd37a152cbda9d98bf4f.jpg

The incident has had a lasting impact on the city of Socorro and its history.

http://groovyhistory.com/content/489807/ac3b6bad61178b0387f3bef2ad9bc338.jpg

Despite the initial interest surrounding his UFO sighting, Lonnie Zamora eventually grew tired of the subject. He avoided both ufologists and the Air Force, choosing instead to focus on his daily life. He found work managing a gasoline station, distancing himself from the UFO community. Zamora passed away on November 2, 2009, in Socorro at the age of 76, leaving behind a legacy intertwined with the mystery of his otherworldly encounter.

Ghada Chehade: Power of Predominant Science | Thunderbolts

The philosopher Socrates was once told by the Oracle at Delphi that he was the wisest person in all of Athens, to which he replied something along the lines of ..."Nobody knows anything, and I know that I know nothing. Thus, if I am wiser than others it is only because I recognize my own ignorance."

Since industrialization, Science—and scientific research and peer review funding—has become increasingly specialized and linked to big business and big governance.

This global alliance forces acquiescence to dominant ideologies and interests. It's accurate to state big science is in the domain of predominant power. Discourse analyst, Ghada Chehade, PhD, names some of the gate-keepers and shows how they are far more interested in self-preservation and forced consensus than empirical observation and debate.

UK's Top UFO Expert Claims Secret USA Power Struggle Being Fought to Expose Alien Life

Nick Pope, who ran the Ministry of Defence's 'UFO Desk' until 2006, tells the Daily Star that the recent flurry of UFO revelations is a sure sign that something is going on behind the scenes at the Pentagon.

http://i2-prod.dailystar.co.uk/incoming/article30250364.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/1_Satellite-Images-of-Terrorist-Attack-Sites.jpg

The UK's top UFO expert has warned of a major political battle going on behind the scenes in the US over attempts to keep the truth about alien life from the public

Recently there has been an explosion in UFO reports and, expert Nick Pope has exclusively told the Daily Star, it’s a sign that a power struggle is going on behind the scenes at the Pentagon.

The big news in the UFO community is the series of revelations from former US Air Force officer and intelligence official David Grusch.

He has sensationally claimed that he’s personally seen evidence of downed alien spacecraft being reverse-engineered at secret US military sites.

In the wake of Grusch's claims, several other former members of the US military – such as Michael Herrera – have come forward with their own stories of contact with extraterrestrial technology.

It must be stressed that US Defence Department spokesperson Sue Gough has strongly denied the reports.

She said in a statement: “To date, AARO [the UFO-hunting All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office] has not discovered any verifiable information to substantiate claims that any programs regarding the possession or reverse-engineering of extraterrestrial materials have existed in the past or exist currently”.

This series of claims and counter-claims has a couple of possible explanations, Nick says. One is that " it’s all true and there's a faction that wants to get the story out, while others are pushing back”.

Or, he adds, it’s possible that a faction within the US Defence Department believes it’s true, but lacks evidence. So they are issuing the bombshell reports because they’re “ trying to smoke it out of other parts of the government that even they can't access by just creating all this buzz”

“There is a believer faction [within the Pentagon], absolutely. And the believer faction is making its move.

“Now, whether, as I say, whether it's making its move on the basis of absolute cast-iron knowledge that this is true or just belief that it's true, that I don't know.”

After sunset in July, bright Venus will dominate the western sky but will sink lower each day. It’ll reach greatest brilliancy on July 7 when it shines at -4.7 magnitude. Enjoy Venus while you can, because it’ll be ending its evening dominance at the end of July. Mars passes very close to Regulus on July 9. Mars continues to fade and is only a bit brighter than 2nd magnitude stars. Venus and Mars will be within 3.6 degrees of each other at the beginning of the month, then move apart.

'Far As The Eye Can See'

Fields of 'suncups' are covering the Sierra.

Suncups are depressions in the snow that occur repeatedly, one next to the other. Usually, they’re shallow and look like salad bowls, but they can also be several feet deep. Sometimes they look like egg cartons or honeycombs.

The Mysterious World of 17th Century Ivory Anatomical Manikins

http://www.ancient-origins.net/sites/default/files/field/image/Ivory-Manikins.jpg

There are more than a few who have a fear of mannequins, but their precursors, 17th-century ivory anatomical manikins were perhaps even creepier. Approximately 100 of these intricate objects exist globally, primarily crafted out of ivory during the late 17th century, with most of them portraying female figures. Their precise purpose remains elusive, yet their allure is undeniable. Stored in institutions like the New York Academy of Medicine, these delicate artifacts offer a captivating glimpse into the mysteries of the human body. While historians speculate that these manikins may have been coveted as status symbols by male physicians, their true significance remains uncertain.

Breaking – Revolutionary Gravitational Wave Background Discovery

Unraveling the Cosmic Symphony

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2306/Gwb_Nanograv_960.jpg

In a groundbreaking discovery, researchers from the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) have detected a persistent gravitational wave background (GWB). The monumental finding, reported yesterday by the Washington Post, could potentially revolutionize our understanding of the universe and its origins.

Gravitational waves, first predicted by Albert Einstein in his theory of general relativity, are ripples in the fabric of spacetime caused by the acceleration of massive objects. The detection of these waves has been a significant focus of astrophysics since the first direct observation by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) in 2015. However, the GWB detected by NANOGrav is a different beast altogether.
___

Monitoring 68 pulsars with very large radio telescopes, the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) has uncovered evidence for the gravitational wave (GW) background by carefully measuring slight shifts in the arrival times of pulses. These shifts are correlated between different pulsars in a way that indicates that they are caused by GWs. This GW background is likely due to hundreds of thousands or even millions of supermassive black hole binaries.

Teams in Europe, Asia and Australia have also independently reported their results today. Previously, the LIGO and Virgo detectors have detected higher-frequency GWs from the merging of individual pairs of massive orbiting objects, such as stellar-mass black holes.

New Era in Gravitational Wave Astronomy

The detection of the gravitational wave background (GWB) by the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) marks a significant milestone in gravitational wave astronomy. Unlike the individual gravitational wave events detected by LIGO, the GWB is a persistent, “humming” signal resulting from countless unresolved sources. Dr. Sarah Burke-Spolaor, a member of the NANOGrav team, likens it to “a symphony of the universe.” This discovery ushers in a new era of gravitational wave astronomy, where we can listen to the cosmic symphony and uncover the secrets of the universe.

Unveiling the Dance of Supermassive Black Holes

The GWB is thought to be largely composed of gravitational waves from pairs of supermassive black holes spiraling toward each other. These cosmic behemoths, each millions or billions of times the mass of our sun, have long been a subject of fascination and study. The detection of the GWB provides a unique opportunity to study these black hole pairs, offering insights into their behavior, their distribution in the universe, and the processes involved in their formation and evolution.

Probing the Early Universe

The GWB could potentially provide a window into the early universe, including the era of cosmic inflation, a brief period just after the Big Bang when the universe expanded at an astonishing rate. As Dr. Chiara Mingarelli, a scientist at the Flatiron Institute’s Center for Computational Astrophysics, explains, “The gravitational wave background could be a treasure trove of information about the early universe.”

Testing the Limits of General Relativity

Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which predicts the existence of gravitational waves, has passed every test so far. However, the detection of the GWB could provide a new testing ground for this theory. Dr. Mingarelli suggests that the GWB could help us “test the limits of Einstein’s theory of general relativity.” This could potentially lead to new insights into the nature of gravity and the fundamental laws of physics.

Unraveling the Mysteries of Dark Matter and Dark Energy

Dark matter and dark energy are two of the biggest mysteries in modern physics. Together, they make up about 95% of the universe, but we know very little about them. The GWB could provide new clues about these elusive phenomena. As Dr. Mingarelli points out, the GWB could help us understand the nature of dark matter and dark energy. This could have profound implications for our understanding of the universe and its ultimate fate.

The detection of the GWB by NANOGrav is a game-changer in the field of astrophysics. Still, the researchers caution that there is much work to be done to understand its implications more fully.

A Message from the Gravitational Universe

In today's image, we see a diagram showing how we are now able to detect low frequency gravitational waves from merging supermassive black holes. This is done by measuring the timing of many different pulsars as gravitational waves cause a ripple in spacetime which slightly changes the pulsar timing. The field of gravitational wave astronomy is relatively new, having only been detected for the first time in the past decade.
