Whether this is how the universe was created or not I like coming across articles and
connecting where possible this one coming hot on the heels of NASA's press conference
last week is interesting particularly the quote from the vid inferring it implications for
life elsewhere. Obviously these are mainstream disclosure/discoveries and many if not
most on here think there are many ET's and we have a secret space programme etc ,
which I gravitate towards . But its worth keeping up with what is going on with
conventional science as well....

Newfound 3.77-billion-year-old fossils could be earliest evidence of life on Earth
Tiny, tubular structures uncovered in ancient Canadian rocks could be remnants of
some of the earliest life on Earth, scientists say.
The straw-shaped “microfossils,” narrower than the width of a human hair and
invisible to the naked eye, are believed to come from ancient microbes, according
to a new study in the journal Nature. Scientists debate the age of the specimens,
but the authors' youngest estimate — 3.77 billion years — would make these fossils
the oldest ever found.

NASA announced the discovery of seven Earth-sized planets around a star about 40
light years away from Earth. All seven could have water, which is key to life like
ours, and three of them fall in the habitable zone. Michio Kaku, CBS News science
and futurist contributor and physics professor at the City University of New York,
joins "CBS This Morning" with more on this new discovery.

I do enjoy these stories, coupled with movies like Arrival.
Seems there is something to MSM working with those in control - is this how disclosure happens?
Not a boom.
A slow unveiling?

Ancient skulls give clues to China human history
By Paul Rincon
Science editor, BBC News website
Two skulls found in China shed light on the ancient humans
who inhabited the region before our own species arrived.
We know that Europe and western Asia was dominated by
the Neanderthals before Homo sapiens displaced them.
But remains belonging to equivalent populations in East
and Central Asia have been scarce.
It's unclear if the finds are linked to the Denisovans, a
mysterious human group known only from DNA analysis
of a tooth and finger bone from Siberia.

VIMANA UFO & THE TEN MILLION YEAR OLD SECRET! DARK JOURNALIST & MICHAEL CREMO

Ancient Vimana UFO Revelations and a Lost Civilization!
In this fascinating episode packed with exciting information, Dark Journalist Daniel Liszt interviews
the influential author of Forbidden Archaeology Michael Cremo on his controversial research into the
dating of human origins. ancient civilizations and the potential widespread impact of Extraterrestrial
cultures on human development.
Cremo's groundbreaking research has been featured on NBC's Television Special 'The Mysterious Origins
of Man" and on the History Channel's Ancient Aliens TV Series. His diligent investigation into the turned
up a series of anomalies that strongly suggest a much older date for the advent of humanity, including
finely manufactured spheres uncovered in South Africa that date all the way back to a staggering two
billion years!
Scientific Coverup
Cremo strongly disagrees with mainstream scientific and archaeological assertions that human beings got
their primitive start as cave dwellers around 200,000 B.C and have only had relatively high culture for six
thousand years. He has catalogued shocking artifacts and physical evidence for over two decades that show
not only was there an advanced pre-diluvian culture that existed far before recorded history, but that it was
predated by 10 million years by the legacy of a sophisticated human society. He sees a massive cover up in
scientific circles as their focus has steadily moved towards a limited scientific materialism in the last two
hundred years.
The UFO Enigma and Ancient Sanskrit Accounts of Vimanas
Cremo has pieced together from early Sanskrit accounts the devastating impact of a high tech flying machine
that existed in antiquity called a 'Vimana' by the ancients. The Vimana was capable of projecting itself in
multiple places at once and so it was impossible to defend against. This fascinating flying marvel was responsible
for the devastation of Dwarka, an ancient paradise that resembles Plato's description of the legendary Atlantis.
The striking similarity between modern day UFO Sightings and the detailed ancient descriptions of the Vimana
let's us know that whatever the UFO Phenomena represents it has been with humanity for a very long time.
Fascinating, Controversial, Informative and Groundbreaking, don't miss part 1 of this exciting Dark Journalist episode.

A Tasty Trove of Exoplanets at TRAPPIST-1

A baker’s half-dozen of Earth-size worlds is orbiting a (relatively) nearby star—and some could be habitable

TRANSCRIPT:
There's big news this week from 40 light years away, a star system called TRAPPIST-1. There's something happening there that no one has ever seen before.
I'm Mike Lemonick. And I'm Lee Billings. And we're here to talk about exoplanets, one of our favorite subjects. So when exoplanets were first discovered 20 years ago, they were mostly gaseous giants like Jupiter, which is interesting but it's not a place where you could have life. There's just no solid surface to stand on. We've been looking and looking for solid rocky planets like Earth ever since, and we've found a lot of them but there's a new announcement that is probably the most exciting one we've heard yet.
Very exciting. We've found a couple, haven't we?
There's not just one Earth-like planet that we're talking about. Earth-sized planet. Not two. Not three. Not five. Seven orbiting one single star, all of them about the size of Earth.
That's pretty yummy.
That's pretty yummy. You can put them down. So Lee, tell us how they found these planets.
Yeah, so it's pretty interesting. What they did to actually find them was something called the transit technique, and what that means is as seen from Earth, they essentially cross the face of their star in their orbit. And that casts a shadow towards us here that we can see as a little dimming of the star. We measure the dimming of the star, the size of the shadow, and thus the size of the planet.
Ok, but size alone is, I mean size matters, but size alone is not the only thing. You want to know that density, you want to know if it's rocky like the Earth. I understand that they have determined that all of these planets are probably rocky. To find that out, you have to know their density. Right? And so we find that out by looking at them as they orbit the star. And as they do that their gravity pulls on each other. Their orbits speed up and slow down. And by measuring that we can tell how much mass each of them has. And if you have the mass and you've got the volume, you can calculate the density. And it looks like the density is probably very similar to Earth. These are probably made of rock.
Which is pretty nifty.
It's pretty nifty. But it's not enough to show that they are habitable. They also have to be at the right distance from this small cool star to allow water to be in liquid form. And again, it's pretty amazing because,
Well, three of them are in this habitable zone, and that's kind of like Venus, Earth, and Mars are in the habitable zone here in our solar system, of course only one of those planets is habitable, ours. And here there's also three planets in this habitable zone around this star that's about 40 light years away. It's a much smaller star than the Sun. It's a little tiny red dwarf, it's called. And again, they are all huddled around it like a campfire.
Right, but in order to know whether there's actually the right conditions for life, it doesn't just have to be the right temperature, you have to know what gasses are in the atmosphere. And we actually have a way that we'll soon be able to do that.
That's right. In 2018, just next year folks, let's hope, NASA is going to be launching its James Webb Space Telescope, a giant piece of kit that's going to be about one and a half million kilometers out there beyond the orbit of the moon, and it's going to be able to look at these planets as they transit across the face of the star.
Yeah, and so what happens is if you look at the glaze on this little donut hole, that little thin glaze, the telescope will be able to watch the star light penetrating through the atmosphere, that thin atmosphere, and actually measure the gasses that are inside. So we don't have long to wait before we find out possibly whether these things are actually habitable.
And even though they may not be habitable, they are certainly edible. I'm Lee Billings.
I'm, excuse me, Mike Lemonick, please subscribe to Scientific American's YouTube channel.

Now: How do we reconcile with things like secret space programming claims, jump rooms, et. al.?
Connected? Are these things rubbish?

Now: How do we reconcile with things like secret space programming claims, jump rooms, et. al.?
Connected? Are these things rubbish?
I look at these realities in several ways and who knows which/what is real ?
if any of this is real ? One part of me follows the mainstream view of news ,
topics , history , politics , social/family issues , astronomy,religion etc. and I find
most of them wanting once you look under the surface. From there you can go in
many directions , whether any of the questions we ask down the rabbit hole are
real or not .
That's why I publish mainstream news and science articles in parallel to the
alternate news and sciences so things like the Secret Space programme seems a
logical extension to NASA to me and a lot of the other memes we discuss. Then you
get into the realms of are we collectively or individually creating our realities or
are we part of a grander plan or whatever, but it is a fun hobby as far as I'm
concerned and if I can fined a few of my own truths all the better. Or on the
mainstream level maybe try to change this control meme we experience....

'Oldest plants on Earth' discovered
By Helen Briggs
BBC News
http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/660/cpsprodpb/11340/production/_95146407_plantfossil.jpg
Synchrotron-based X-ray tomographic microscopy revealed structures typical of red algae.
The origins of plants may go back hundreds of millions of years earlier than previously
thought, according to fossil evidence.Ancient rocks from India suggest plants resembling
red algae lived 1.6 billion years ago in what was then shallow sea.The discovery may
overturn ideas of when relatively advanced life evolved, say scientists in Sweden.
They identified parts of chloroplasts, structures within plant cells involved in photosynthesis.
The earliest signs of life on Earth are at least 3.5 billion years old.

Buzz Aldrin is an American astronaut best known for piloting the Lunar
Module on the Apollo 11 mission in 1969, and the second person to set
foot on the moon. While it was a historic achievement, Dr. Aldrin wants
to be remembered for more than just "kicking up moon dust." He wants
his legacy to include laying the groundwork for a permanent human
settlement on Mars, and he has a plan. This world’s first holographic
‘archival VR’ project, created by 8i, will give viewers a unique
opportunity to ‘meet’ the astronaut through his hologram today, and
will give future generations a chance to experience his legacy, long
after mankind has made the journey to Mars.
