    How To Spot A New Age UFO Cult

    Published 28th October 2019

    In the 1950s and early 1960s, our world experienced an increase in ufo sightings. This was also the early era of free love and new age spirituality hitting the United States. Our world was just coming out of the threat of nuclear war.

    Some individuals found an opportunity to feed their ego with what was popular at the time, and using the anxiety and fear of humanity to their advantage. The mystery of Roswell and the new age hippy movement combined formed a new type of cult and religion. A new type of god. A new leader to bring this message to you. The spirituality and new age movement was able to allow these leaders to cherry pick whatever fit their hearts desire. Using the mystery of extraterrestrials to their advantage.

    This formula is still in use today and transcends faster and further than ever with the internet at our fingertips. Although Marshall applewhite of heavens gate was the first to utilize and popularize the internet for spreading his message - he sure isn’t the last. Today there are many ufo new age cults using the internet to spread their message.

    The new age ufo cults present themselves as unique and the correct way to live your life. With the right answers. Many of these leaders profess to be the only channel to have access to this information from the extraterrestrial gods. Bringing you new and exciting information. And sometimes - to warn you to get your life right because destruction is right around the corner.

    Unfortunately what many of the followers in the cults don’t realize is this blend has been around since the 1950s And many of this channeled information to their leader/guru is nothing new. In fact - a lot of the channeled information is very similar.

    I’m going to present to you 5 ufo cults and religions - the atherian society, heavens gate, the universe people, the unarian society and the sphere being alliance - 5 ufo cults that are very similar in their thinking, rhetoric and propaganda. Some of these groups do not seem to present any danger and have no bad reputation to speak of.

    Others.. not so much.

    So my question to you is - if all of these cults spread the same message, but profess to be the only channel, who is telling the truth? And would they all be considered cults or religions if one is considered a cult or religion? What makes one different from the other?

    And should we be worried?

    Quote Acknowledged Andrew Johnson

    Have aliens really visited us? What do they look like? Where do they come from and why are they here? Have they given us messages in Crop Circles? What historical evidence is there that aliens have been involved in the evolution or creation of humans? Is there a UFO/Alien cover up? If so, how is it kept in place?This book embodies an attempt to give some answers to the questions above, based on a compilation and distillation of evidence collected during about 15 years of ongoing research.

    Although this book is not written for people who are new to these topics, "newbies" and seasoned researchers alike should find something useful herein. Detailed information and over 900 references aim to give the reader a perspective on alien intervention, alien abduction, alien contact, landings and crashes. The involvement of military and intelligence interests and their influence on the so-called "Disclosure" movement is also considered. Also included is a critical look at certain prominent UFO researchers, who seem to be helping to keep certain truths obscured or marginalised.

    Although most or all of the information in this book has been written about elsewhere, this work attempts a synthesis of reasoned analysis which, it is hoped, will enlighten the reader and give them a new understanding about why any official type of "Disclosure" is unlikely to happen, as powerful interests need to keep their crimes covered up.






    Came out today on Rich Planet 10/29/2019

    Quote This is the second part show no. 274 with Andrew Johnson discussing his new book on UFOs entitled "Acknowledged". In this episode we discuss the alien abduction phenomenon, and ask whether the military could be behind most alleged abduction cases. What about the ancient alien or ancient astronaut claims - Andrew brings to light what he believes is the best evidence for alien intervention in the distant past. We then look at some very intriguing photographs, video and physical evidence of alleged extra terrestrials on Earth. Could any of this evidence really mean that we have been visited by intelligent races from elsewhere in our galaxy?

    Observing Exoplanets: What Can We Really See?

    Published 28th October 2019



    Exoplanets are far away, and they are often obscured by the bright light of the stars they orbit. So, taking pictures of them the same way you'd take pictures of, say, Jupiter or Venus, isn't easy.

    The major problem astronomers face in trying to directly image exoplanets is that the stars they orbit are millions of times brighter than their planets. Any light reflected off of the planet or heat radiation from the planet itself is drowned out by the massive amounts of radiation coming from its host star. It's like trying to see a firefly flitting around a spotlight.

    So, it takes new techniques and advancing technology to make it happen.

    Dr. James Benford | Starshot; The First Interstellar Probe

    Published 29th October 2019

    Breakthrough Starshot is an initiative by the Breakthrough Foundation to prove ultra-fast ultra-light nanospacecraft can be launched by laser radiation pressure to nearby stars, and will lay the foundations for a first launch to Alpha Centauri within the next generation. Designs for a 0.2c Alpha Centauri mission minimize beam director capital cost by accelerating a ~4 m, several gram diameter sailcraft for ~10 min. A number of hard engineering challenges remain to be solved before these missions can become a reality: Large coherent laser arrays are required. No consensus has been reached on the most suitable sail geometry for stable flight, “beam-riding”. The sail itself requires major advances in materials science and photonic design to produce materials with the required absorptance, emittance, reflectance, areal density and operating temperature. Along the way, the project will enable increasingly fast outer solar system and interstellar precursor missions. Breakthrough Starshot will pave the way for multi-lightyear pipelines of sailcraft that fly past each target star every few weeks. Beams such as Starshot will produce an extremely observable transient feature of Earth and therefore could be an observable of extraterrestrial advanced civilizations.

    How Big Is A Proton Anyway? This Decade-Long Debate May Have Just Been Solved

    Published 30th October 2019



    Scientists thought they knew the approximate size of a proton until a 2010 experiment came back with a very different number, creating the proton-radius puzzle.

    After almost a decade of reexamination, scientists think they’ve solved what’s known as the proton-radius puzzle.

    First some basics: The proton itself is not a smooth billiard-ball, but more like a cloud of quarks held together by gluons. The quarks a proton is made up of give it its positive charge, and the threshold of that positive charge can be thought of as the proton’s size.

    There are two main approaches scientists have used to find the radius of a proton’s boundary.

    The first involves firing electrons at atoms, like hydrogen, which in its simplest form is a single proton nucleus with one orbiting electron. Then, based on how the electrons bounce off the nucleus, scientists can determine where the proton’s positive charge begins to fade.

    The second method involves measuring how much energy it takes to excite an atom’s electron from one state to the next, and like method one, hydrogen is typically the atom of choice.

    The other method measures how much energy it takes to excite an atom’s electron from one state to the next, and again, hydrogen is often the atom of choice.

    Over the years, these two methods came more or less to the agreement that a proton’s radius was about 0.8768 femtometers, and all was well until about a decade ago when someone artificially swapped out hydrogen’s electron with a muon.

    Now a muon is like an electron in every way, except it is 207 times more massive.

    That’s right 207 times.

    And that added weight means that the muon spends more time inside the proton, making its switch to a higher energy state millions of times more sensitive to the proton’s size than the electron in regular hydrogen. By measuring the proton using muonic hydrogen, they came back with a result 4% smaller than the previously accepted size, a difference that’s not insignificant.

    So, were their previous measurements off? Or was this a hint at something more tantalizing? Did the discrepancy reveal some unknown physics or new elementary particles?

    Find out more about a proton’s size and what we know so far, on this episode of Elements.

    "The proton might truly be smaller than was thought. Experiments on an exotic form of hydrogen first found1 a puzzling discrepancy with the accepted size in 2010. Now, evidence from a German and Russian team points to a smaller value for the size of the proton with ordinary hydrogen, too."

    Scientists measure precise proton radius to help resolve decade-old puzzle
    https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...0905145426.htm
    "The York University team studied atomic hydrogen to understand the deviant value obtained from muonic hydrogen. They conducted a high-precision measurement using the frequency-offset separated oscillatory fields (FOSOF) technique, which they developed for this measurement."

    Physicists Finally Nail the Proton’s Size, and Hope Dies
    https://www.quantamagazine.org/physi...dies-20190911/
    "The new result implies that earlier attempts to measure the proton’s radius in electronic hydrogen tended to overshoot the true value. It’s unclear why this would be so."

    Everything We Know About The US Air Force's Secret Space Plane - The X-37B

    Published 30th October 2019



    For the last 10 years the US Air Force has been flying a small reusable space plane designated the X-37B, carrying out classified missions in low Earth orbit. This of course makes it something of a magnet for crazy conspiracy theories suggesting it's a weapons platform or it's changing the weather. However it was always pitched as a reusable platform to perform extended experiments in space starting back when it was a joint project with NASA. But NASA left the project after developing new flight control sensors and algorithms, because the purpose of the final product largely replicated capabilities already offered by the Space Station.

    The DoD had similar testing requirements with the extra constraint of keeping the hardware and tests classified, so, the X-37B offers them this capability.

    We've just barely had a chance to calm down from a G2-level solar storm due to some fast solar wind that hit a few days ago and we are already being hit by a stealthy solar storm the Sun launched back on October 25th! This stealthy storm has bumped us back to active conditions for a short while, but it should bring aurora only to high latitudes because it is magnetically oriented the wrong way to really have a significant impact Earth's magnetic shield. Nonetheless, it is helping to precondition Earth's shield and make it more sensitive to the next solar storm that is expected to hit over the next few days. This third storm will be from some fast solar wind from a southern hemisphere coronal hole and it could return us to active conditions starting around early next week. In addition to these solar storms, several bright regions are rotating into Earth view, and they are are boosting the solar flux up to marginal conditions for radio propagation (just barely). This is good news for amateur radio and emergency responders as these conditions should last over the next few days and possibly into next week as well. The only group really suffering are GPS users, as GPS reception likely isn't so great right now, especially near aurora and on Earth's night side. However, reception should slowly get better as we move through mid-next week. Learn the details of these three solar storms, how they are affecting the satellites above us, when and where to see aurora, and what to expect in radio propagation and GPS reception this week as well as what else our Sun has in store!

    Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics

    Zhaohuan Zhu | University Of Nevada, Las Vegas | Using Disk Substructures To Reveal Young Planet Population

    Published 31st October 2019

    ALMA provides us a great opportunity to image the planet construction zone directly, and many disk structures (e.g. spirals, gaps, warps) have emerged. In this talk, I will discuss how planet-disk interaction theory helps us understand planet formation process. Then, I will apply the planet-disk interaction theory to substructures in the ALMA large program (DSHARP) to reveal the potential young planet population. We find that the occurrence rate for >5 M J planets beyond 5-10 au is consistent with direct imaging constraints. Using these disk substructures also allows us to probe a wide-orbit planet population (Neptune to Jupiter mass planets beyond 10 au) that is not accessible to other planet searching techniques. Finally, I will discuss one possible solution to the planet mass budget problem: one puzzle revealed by ALMA that the dust in Class II disks may not be enough to explain the averaged solid mass in exoplanets.

    Published 31st October 2019

    An exploration into the concept that instead of a ninth undiscovered planet lurking in the outer solar system there may be a primordial black hole.

    Jakub Scholtz and James Unwin join John Michael Godier to discuss their recent paper What if Planet 9 is a Primordial Black Hole? And the implications that could mean.

    Surviving On Venus. Is It Time To Go Back To That Awful Place?

    Streamed & Published 31st October 2019

    If you’ve watched this channel enough, you might have the impression that I hate Venus. It’s possible, just possible I’ve even suggested that the planet is so terrible it should be pushed into the Sun.

    The reality, of course, is that it’s an absolutely fascinating world - the closest twin to the Earth that we have in the Solar System. It’s nearly the same mass and has the same surface gravity.

    While Earth is the beautiful life-filled world we all enjoy, Venus is a tortured hellscape, with temperatures hot enough to melt zinc. With atmospheric pressures more than 93 times what we experience here on the surface of Earth. And I always forget about the sulphuric acid rain.

    The Soviets sent a series of landers to a horrible demise for a glimpse of the surface of Venus in the 70s and 80s. But nobody’s been back since.

    There have been new techniques and technologies in development that might make a serious exploration of the surface of Venus possible again. Exploration that could help us understand why the planet went so horribly horribly wrong.
