Ancient Human Fossils Launched Into Space?!

On the Trail of Bigfoot: The Search - Full Movie (Sasquatch Evidence and...


My comment was:
"Without knowing a population number the animal (if it exists) that is killed could be an alpha male breeder or female matriarch. Breeding might really be hit or miss depending on fertility etc. Photos/video footage and hair/fecal samples are the best evidence. Here is hoping these people do NOT "Put one down on tha slab" Human arrogance and stupidity and foot stomping because ego wants everyone to say "you were right! Wish you bad luck in getting the body and let the big boys in cammo carry on playing soldiers while (allegedly) wounding "one" in the arm. Great marksmen."

Better still they "have taken shots" but missed (or wounded?) morons

YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHAT? ALIEN BODIES IN MEXICO

‘Alien corpses’ shown to Congress as UFO expert forced to testify under oath

 Here we go with more fake headlines. WHO was "forced to testify under oath"?  Maussan? Good lords he has never managed to not blurt out streams of nonsense in his journalistic and hoaxing/grifter life.  This is a man who has become wealthy based on calling hot air balloons and other clearly seen mundane objects "alien". 

Even as this story was reported on people noted the previous Maussan fakery. Even this article tells readers about it.  As for the 'scientific facts' stated.... if you have no idea it may sound great but I am sure Maussan's accountant is rubbing his hands together in glee.

Alleged “non-human” alien corpses have been displayed to Mexican politicians at the country’s Congress.

The two small alleged alien corpses, retrieved from Cusco, Peru, were presented in windowed boxes in Mexico City on Wednesday, stirring excitement within the UFO conspiracy theorist community.

The event was spearheaded by journalist and ufologist Jaime Maussan, who testified under oath that the mummified specimens are not part of “our terrestrial evolution”, with almost a third of their DNA remaining “unknown”, reported Mexican media.

The claims by the self-claimed ‘ufologist’ have not been proven and Mr Maussan has previously been associated with claims of discoveries that have later been debunked.

At the public hearing, Mr Maussan showed US officials and members of the Mexican government several videos of “UFOs and unidentified anomalous phenomena” before unveiling the alleged alien corpses.

He said: “These specimen are not part of our terrestrial evolution... These aren’t beings that were found after a UFO wreckage. They were found in diatom (algae) mines, and were later fossilized.”

Mr Maussan told attendees the specimens had been studied by scientists at the Autonomous National University of Mexico (UNAM) who were able to draw DNA evidence using radiocarbon dating. After comparisons were made to other DNA samples, it was found that over 30% of the specimens’ DNA was “unknown”, he said.

X-rays of the specimens were also shown during the hearing, with experts testifying under oath that one of the bodies is seen to have “eggs” inside, while both were said to have implants made of very rare metals, such as Osmium.

Ryan Graves, Americans for Safe Aerospace Executive Director and former US Navy pilot, was in attendance, having earlier this year told US Congress of the threat that unidentified aerial phenomena posed to US national security.

Mr Maussan has previously been associated with claims of “alien” discoveries that have later been debunked, including five mummies found in Peru in 2017 that were later shown to be human children.

Why Don't I Turn My Work Into A TV Show?

 

I was asked why I had never developed a podcast, radio programme or TV series from my work? After all I have enough books covering mysteries -four on UFOs and four on "world mysteries" 

The answer is simple. Personally I do not have the finances or technical gear to do so. Things cost money and that is something I do not have. I have talked with radio stations before and they were quite interested, however, their regular people who did short spots on local ghost stories were unhappy and so "Sadly we cannot develop this at the moment." 

Oh, I have tried TV. I have been interviewed often enough by the BBC as well as Sky and other broadcasters. 

My first attempt was going smoothly until I mentioned it to some British Cryptozoologists. I was unaware that these people later contacted the two producers of the planned programme. I did a lot of work and even managed to get a policeman and two other witnesses who had always refused to be filmed to agree to take part. Come the morning that I was supposed to be picked up to go off for filming and meet the witnesses...nothing. I phoned the producers. No response. Tried other methods. Nothing. A secretary told me that the two of them were off filming the programme I had developed and was supposed to be in.  It seems that the two young producers had been pushed about by the crypto people into not involving me and that they would give a better programme. I spoke to a senior director who was not happy but nothing I could do.  The 25 minutes long 'documentary' turned out to be a make believe farce and got very bad viewer reactions -it was complete nonsense. The two producers were "let go".  

In another instance the company which made documentaries for TV companies thought that re-enactments by actors would help the story flow better. I had no objections until I was told "We'll cut to the scene where the two women are in bed together" and my reaction was "What?"  Actually it was a lot ruder. The two witnesses to the haunting in question were indeed in bed together -they were 9 years old and 12 years old and sisters sharing a bedroom.  At this point I realised that the "sexy" angle was the main aim. In another story we would follow a couple who observed a UFO while taking a short cut home through a wood one night. In fact, they had apparently seen the UFO while having sex in the wood. The couple in question were in their 70s and one had to use a walking frame.  I was told that they knew the business of making programmes and if I just sat back and took the payment things would be fine. No.  

I was involved with Yorkshire TV at one point to develop ideas for shows that could be shown on national TV. One of these was The Unidentified which looked into UFO cases. I contacted the British UFO Research Association (BUFORA) which fuddled about and decided that I needed to contact their "prominent members" individually. "I have the final say on the edit of my part" was a common phrase along with "Well, I would be giving up my time and as you'll not find anyone more expert on the subject I would expect adequate compensation".  It was sheer ego and wanting to snatch money. A producer contacted the same people to see what result he got -"What a crowd of money grubbing egotists!" was his conclusion.   Uh, there would have been a programme on cryptozoology but the same problem and worse still was the  demand that the cases to be dealt with were chucked out and one of their personal cases replace them. When I showed the producer the actual case details and he realised he would be behind a programme pushing hoaxing that was it. 

With that same producer we had one successfully accepted idea. And idea that was then rejected and after a couple of months became Channel 4s 'own idea' yet we had the paperwork. According to the producer "That's TV. This sort of thing goes on a lot".  

I am not against a TV show idea but it seems the era of Trash TV is here to stay. Believe me, I have no objections to earning money honestly but no one is intereste!

Charm City Paranormal overreacting!

Scientists baffled by golden ‘egg’ found in deep sea dive (it isn't made of gold really)

 The Telegraph https://uk.yahoo.com/news/scientists-baffled-golden-egg-found-161621770.html

The mysterious golden object was recovered from a depth of 3.2km in the Pacific off the coast of Alaska

A strange golden object found on the seafloor off the coast of Alaska is puzzling marine scientists who suspect it may be the egg of an unknown species.

The shiny object, which appears to have a hole in one side where a creature may have hatched, was discovered by a team of deep sea explorers from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) last week.

“Something tried to get in... or to get out,” one researcher was heard to say during the live feed of the remotely operated dive, which took place two miles beneath the surface at the site of an extinct volcano.

“I just hope when we poke it, something doesn’t decide to come out,” a second marine scientist said. “It’s like the beginning of a horror movie. When our collective knowledge can’t identify it, it’s something weird. What kind of an animal would make an egg casing like that?”

‘The’ team deployed a robotic arm to jiggle the “egg” free from its rock before sucking it up so it could be examined at the surface.

Although experts were expecting its texture to be gelatinous – like a shark egg – it was similar to skin tissue or silk, and DNA tests are now being carried out to find its identity.

NOAA said that an egg casing was the most likely explanation.

Several deep sea fish, such as sharks and rays are known to deposit egg cases in similar habitats but experts are stumped about its origin. Other suggestions have included a new type of coral, a Pacific barnacle or a sponge.

Tests are ongoing to discover what the object actually is

The mystery object was found on day eight of NOAA’s Seascape Alaska 5 expedition, which has been running since August 23, exploring the seabed around 250 miles south of the Alaskan coast.

Around one third of life in the ocean is thought to be undiscovered and the team has been taking samples of creatures living in deep-sea coral, sponge habitats, and mud volcanoes.

Kerry Howell, a professor of deep-sea ecology at the University of Plymouth, told the Mail Online that the object is “weird”.

“In my 20 years exploring the deep sea I have not seen anything like that,” she said. “It’s always exciting to see new things and I will wait eagerly for the analysis on the sample to understand what it actually is.

“There are many many undiscovered species in the deep sea so this could be related to a new species quite easily.”

HIGH STRANGENESS

 


Since 1947 it has been claimed that UFOs/flying saucers are evidence of aliens visiting the Earth. Since the 1950s claims of encounters with landed craft and alien beings were talked about but not taken seriously. In the 1960s the subject of UFO abduction was a "slow-burner" until the whole "Grey" abduction phenomenon and claims made by researchers. But is there evidence to back up any of the claims -and what about those encountering Alien Entities but who were not abducted?
2017 is the time to assess the past evidence and look at the faults within Ufology. Not everyone is going to be happy -debunkers or ufologists.

Creature photographed in Loch Ness 'is not monster'

 https://uk.yahoo.com/news/creature-photographed-loch-ness-may-160621788.html

It was the “most exciting” potential sighting of the Loch Ness monster captured on camera for decades.

But now, a paranormal investigator has dampened Nessie hunters’ hopes by saying the strange object photographed “spinning and rolling” in the water is “most likely” a sturgeon.

Translator Chie Kelly revealed the pictures last week after seeing the “creature” moving at a steady speed while she was having lunch at a pub on the banks of Loch News in Scotland on Aug 13 2018.

Ms Kelly kept quiet about the pictures for fear of ridicule, but went public after hundreds of volunteers descended on Loch Ness last week for a two-day monster hunt – the biggest attempt to get to the bottom of the myth in decades.

Although the image has been hailed as the “most exciting” picture taken of Nessie in decades, Hayley Stevens, a paranormal researcher and regular contributor to the BBC Radio 4 podcast Uncanny, said: “I personally think it is most likely that they saw a large sturgeon in the Loch.”

Writing on the award-winning science blog, Hayley is a Ghost, she said: “The photos were taken in August 2018 and sturgeon migrate into fresh water in late summer and early autumn to mate, before heading back out to coastal waters.

“Sturgeon can grow very large – the Atlantic and European sturgeon, which are native to the UK, can grow up to five metres in length.

“Most importantly though, we have to acknowledge the fact that we’ll probably not know for sure what the photo shows but something being currently unexplained does not mean it is unexplainable.”

Thousands of people have taken to message boards to discuss what the image might be, with ideas ranging from two otters playing, to bin bags and even a deflated dinghy.

Many claim to have seen the face of the monster zooming in on the images, but Ms Stevens warned zooming distorts the picture further and can trigger the “pareidolia effect” – in which the brain interprets random images, or patterns of light and shadow, as faces.

Scientists believe that the “pareidolia effect” evolved to help pick out hidden predators, but it can lead to people seeing faces where they are not there, such as picking out Jesus, the Virgin Mary, or Elvis in objects such as toasts, shrouds, and clouds.

Ms Stevens added: “The photos are a part of the mystery as they do not clearly show what’s in the water.

“This does not stop people from zooming in on the photo – to the point that the photo quality is distorted, in the hope that they’ll find a pixel that tells them the answer.

“In reality, any further detail that emerges from zooming in on a photo to the point that it is pixelated is likely to come from the pareidolia effect.”

A second photograph showing a strange creature in Loch Ness, emerged over the weekend, taken by 12-year-old Charlotte Robinson, on Aug 17 2018.

Charlotte, from Leeds in Yorkshire, said that it had “a neck and head in the shape of a hook” and had disappeared, before reemerging elsewhere for about a minute.

The shape in the picture is similar to the most famous image of “Nessie” taken by Robert Kenneth Wilson, a gynaecologist, in 1930, which also showed a creature with a long neck and small head moving through the water.

The image – which became widely known as “the surgeon’s photograph” – later turned out to be a hoax, created by a disgruntled ex-Mail employee who was angry that his father-in-law had been ridiculed by the newspaper for claiming he had found Nessie footprints.

Nevertheless, both Charlotte and Ms Kelly’s sightings have been accepted by the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings Register.

Gary Campbell, the keeper of the register, said the two new images were “the best of Nessie ever taken and are totally baffling”.

Members of the Loch Ness Exploration group who took to the loch last week said their microphones had picked up “strange sounds” but said they had forgotten to turn on their recording equipment, so their claims cannot be verified.

Some Nessie hunters believe the creature could be a plesiosaur that survived extinction.

The theory was boosted last year when the University of Bath found fossils of small plesiosaurs in a 100-million-year-old river system that is now in Morocco’s Sahara Desert, suggesting some did live in freshwater.
