Top Space Force Official acknowledges global presence of UFOs

Published

on

Speaking about Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), a senior Space
Force official has acknowledged that UAP are detected globally and
admitted, “quite frankly, having flown 83 different airplanes and had
lots of hours, we’ve all seen lots of unexplainable elements.”

Talking
to The New York Foreign Press Center on 14 April, Major General John
Olson, Mobilization Assistant to the Chief of Space Operations for the
U.S. Space Force, added that more international cooperation and
collaboration with other countries was needed, stating:

“I do
believe it does involve collaborative inputs and information exchange
with all kinds of countries around the globe, because I think these are
not just solely actions or events that occur within the confines of the
United States.”

He added that the U.S. has collected and shared information regarding
UAP detected around the globe, whilst underlining that it is the Space
Force’s view to conduct efforts in a transparent manner:

“They’ve occurred globally, and I think we’re collecting that information.

“We’re sharing information.

“We
view that as an open and transparent effort and activity through the
United States Congress and executed by our UAP Task Force office, and so
I would encourage greater collaboration and cooperation in that, and
particularly I think as we see various technologies that will help
demystify or debunk or clarify.”

Notably, Olson suggested that
such cooperation and collaboration needed was comparable to the United
Nation’s International Civil Aviation Organization, an effort funded and
directed by 193 national governments, including China, to support their
diplomacy and cooperation in air transport.

Olson stated:

“So
when we can better share and exchange information, I think that’s
better, much like we do in the International Civil Aviation Organization
or otherwise known as ICAO, or in any other international bodies as
well.

“I think there’s a fertile and important opportunity to be pursued there.”

This
comes following the approval of Project Titan by San Marino, meaning
the nation will submit a proposal to the UN for the creation of a
permanent office tasked with the preparation of periodic global
conferences dedicated to the scientific study of UAP.

Alien space debris stuck in Earth’s orbit, researchers say

Published

on

By

Recently, a group of experts from Harvard University, led by physics
professor Avi Loeb, announced the possible presence of alien space
debris in Earth’s orbit, reports the Daily Star.

Leading
space research expert Professor Loeb is confident that the discovery of
such “interstellar objects could help expand our knowledge of possible
alien civilizations and technologies. A team of scientists is conducting
research to confirm that some of the objects in our orbit may be
connected to other star systems.

During an interview with Live
Science, Professor Loeb explained that these objects could enter the
solar system from interstellar space, defying Jupiter’s gravitational
pull and occupying limited orbits around the sun.

Some of them may
have technological origins similar to the probes sent by mankind into
interstellar space, such as Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, Pioneer 10 and 11
and New Horizons.

However,
despite these interesting assumptions, Professor Loeb did not specify
what specific objects he was talking about. In his research report, he
notes that there could be “a significant number” of potentially
detectable objects in Earth’s orbit.

To confirm their assumptions,
the team of scientists uses computer simulations and the Vera Rubin
Observatory (Chile) with a high-resolution camera of 3.2 billion pixels.
This will allow for regular observations of the Southern sky and the
possibility of detecting several captured objects about the size of a
football field.

It is assumed that these interstellar objects passed through the
boundaries of the solar system and may carry unique information about
other civilizations and their technologies. If we could confirm the
origin of these objects, the mysteries that open before us, this would
be a real breakthrough in space exploration.

Professor Loeb
expresses hope that the new research will not only help expand our
knowledge of extraterrestrial technologies, but may also lead to the
discovery of new alien civilizations . Answers to such questions can be
of global significance and influence our understanding of the place of
mankind in the Universe.

And
while there are still many questions and assumptions, the study by
Professor Loeb and his team opens a new chapter in space exploration.
Each new discovery can be the key to deciphering the mysteries of the
cosmos and the possibility of encountering alien life forms.

Betelgeuse is acting strange again

Published

By

Betelgeuse, a red giant on the brink of death, continues to show
unusual behavior. After the Great Blackout, which occurred in late 2019
and early 2020, the star became unusually bright. It is now the seventh
brightest star in the sky, while it normally ranks tenth. This has led
to speculation that Betelgeuse is preparing to explode in a
spectacularly large supernova.

However, scientists believe it’s too early to tell, and it’s likely
that this behavior is due to ongoing fluctuations after the Great
Blackout of 2019, and the star will return to normal within a decade.

Betelgeuse is one of the most interesting stars in the sky. It is
about 700 light-years from Earth and is a red giant in the last stage of
its life. It is also an unusual star for a red giant because it was
previously a monster blue-white O-type star, the most massive class of
stars.

Betelgeuse has changed its spectral type because it has almost
exhausted its hydrogen reserves. It now burns helium into carbon and
oxygen and has expanded to a gigantic size: about 764 times the size of
the Sun and about 16.5 to 19 times its mass.

Eventually it will run out of fuel to burn, become a supernova, eject
its outer material, and its core will collapse into a neutron star.

Before the Great Blackout, Betelgeuse also had periodic fluctuations
in brightness. The longest of these cycles is about 5.9 years and the
other is 400 days. But it seems that the Great Blackout caused changes
in these oscillations.

A new paper by astrophysicist Morgan McLeod of the
Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics has shown that the 400-day
cycle appears to have been halved. This pulsational cycle is probably
caused by expansion and contraction within the star. According to
simulations carried out by MacLeod and his colleagues, the convective
flow inside Betelgeuse may have risen and become material that separates
from the star.
