Strange Happenings

Close Encounters for the Dr. Phil Show
By Kurt Snider

Are we alone? Not according to one woman who believes aliens are watching her every move. A recent assignment for Solana Productions Inc. found their crew recording an unusual story for the Dr. Phil show.

The woman believed she was visited by aliens in the desert one night years ago. Since then she is convinced they are responsible for just about anything unusual that happens to her. This includes her computer crashing when she was writing the show to tell of her experiences. Apparently the aliens try to prevent her from revealing their presence to anyone. The woman’s husband and four children don’t believe in aliens and tease her about her fears.

Strangely enough, when it came time to shoot b-roll the camera developed a mysterious problem. Solana crews always carry backup recorders so the shoot continued. But the next day our engineer found the camera to be working perfectly and had no explanation for what might have happened.

This is the second close encounter with true believers for Solana Productions. While shooting a Discovery Channel special in Utah we met a character who must hold the record for meeting aliens. He claimed to have been abducted twice and visited several more times. Fortunately our gear survived this shoot intact.

Tiwanaku Alien and Evolution
By Gersiane De Brito

It was mentioned on a biology blog that archaeological engravings from the Tiwanaku civilization in Bolivia are unlikely to be depicting an ancient astronaut for the reason that, even with an aquatic tail, the creature still looks too much like a human. The underlying argument was that the evolution of life forms is so diverse that it is highly unlikely an alien would come out looking even remotely like us. In essence, this is the opposite side of the pendulum to Hollywood’s consistent imaging of aliens as humanoids.

The biologist ignored the decorative and symbolic imagery added by the Tiwanaku artists and did not consider the given premise of an aquatic alien inside helmeted spacesuit. I have to assume, therefore, the biologist noted that the creature had two arms and two eyes, and since humans have two arms and two eyes, the biologist concluded that this cannot be an alien.

What should intelligent aliens look like? Or, to phrase it another way, what should we expect interstellar travelers who come here to look like? This is not a complete unknown. If the aliens are capable of interstellar travel, they obviously achieved higher technology. What is necessary to achieve technology? My opinion on this is that to achieve technology, a life form would need a complex brain and the ability to see and manipulate objects. This implies eyes, fingered appendages, and perhaps a head relatively large compared to overall body size. The Tiwanaku alien has all these features.

The biologist might counter that the issue is not that aliens have eyes, but the number of eyes. Here on Earth, higher animal forms evolved with two eyes. For example, mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, and insects all have two eyes, but on another planet the number of eyes would be different. There, perhaps, the life forms would randomly have one, three, four, or even ten eyes. Is that true? Is the number of eyes a random event in the evolutionary process?

Astronomers searching for extraterrestrial intelligence are looking for planets similar to Earth regarding temperature and chemical composition because they know life evolved here, so it is logical to assume that life might also evolve on other similar planets. Likewise, with similar planetary history, we might expect the evolutionary process on those other planets to progress similarly to how it progressed here.

Question: Was the evolution of animal life with two eyes on Earth a random event, so much so that we should expect extraterrestrial life to have a different number of eyes? I think not. Why? It is called natural selection or survival of the fittest. Two eyes are the minimum required to give depth perception and concentrated focus. Perhaps early on Earth there were animals with five or ten eyes, but with a brain too small to orientate five directions, such species quickly became extinct. Only two eyes survived. Should we expect something radically different on another Earth-like planet? No. It is reasonable to expect intelligent aliens to have two eyes, just like humans.

It is also reasonable to expect alien life forms to be imaginable from the diversity of life forms we see on Earth, past and present. The Tiwanaku alien has features similar to a fish (fish mouth that seems to be breathing inside a water-filled helmet), features similar to a lobster (sea creature with two forward appendages for manipulating objects), and features similar to humans (large head and fingered upper appendages). Only four fingers are depicted in the Tiwanaku drawings, versus our five, but this easily falls within evolutionary feasibility. The alien’s three-pod aquatic tail is also an imaginable evolutionary development.

I think the biologist’s appreciation for the potentially enormous diversity of life forms in the universe is admirable. For those life forms that develop higher technology, however, it is likely, not unlikely, that they will have something in common with humans.

Alien Television Has Out Of This World Ratings

By: dror klar

Whether you actually believe in them or not, the truth is that people everywhere are intrigued by the possibility of alien life forms visiting our world. Some people will swear that they have been visited by, abducted by, or have witnessed aliens and their space craft. It is one of the most talked about unsolved mysteries of our time.

Archeologists have discovered many places throughout the world that seem to lend some credence to the possibility that our planet has been being visited by aliens for thousands of years. Pictures that were etched in stone surfaces so long ago appear to resemble those of spacemen and their ships. Of course, no one can actually prove whether these images are what they appear to be or not. Many people also believe that the Holy Bible contains several references that might be interpreted as speaking of alien things.

The number of supposed sightings of alien spacecraft all over the world has prompted a number of satellite and cable television shows that can be seen on The History Channel, The Discovery Channel, and The Science Fiction Channel.

Many of these programs are based on the stories that surround mysterious circumstances such as those that have been told and retold about an incident that is thought to have taken place near Roswell Air Force base in New Mexico back in 1947. It is believed by some that an alien ship crashed near there and that alien bodies were recovered both dead and alive and taken to this famous Air Force base.

Whether they are confirmed believers or not many people love to watch the television programs that deal with information concerning unidentified flying objects and their occupants. Ufologists, as they are being called now, probably never miss a new show that comes out. There is also much information about this topic that can be researched over the internet.

The X-files television series, while it did not deal solely with extraterrestrial themes, was extremely popular to television viewers when it first came on. It first aired in1993 and ran for nine years, ending in 2002. The show dealt with many paranormal subjects, but some of the best loved episodes were towards the end of the series when detectives Mulder and Scully dealt largely with the alien issues. This show was viewed in many countries and its reruns are still very popular.

To think that there are other life forms visiting us can be a little scary to think about. That may be the reason that so many people refuse to believe that they exist. What they do not believe in can probably not hurt them.

If we try to summarize the conclusions from the various UFO experts, we will get to know about certain factors that can help us determine the genuineness of an UFO sighting. Let us go exploring.

Interference With Electronic Devices

If you go through all the footages and descriptions as presented by the eyewitnesses, you will many similarities, as they share some common observations. These common observations include cars breaking down, power fluctuating or completely blacking out, radios and TVs crackling, and magnetic compasses malfunctioning. It means whenever a UFO sighting appear in the sky, it interferes with the electronic devices available on earth. Since, all the sighting claims for this, as per experts, it is safe to assume they are real.

Does An UFO Leave Damage Trail

Almost all the witnesses and reports on UFO sightings have claimed that UFOs leave damage trails. The reason for this is obviously not know. However, people claim that UFO visits often end up with cattle mutilated, or humans suffering from apparent radioactive poisoning.

UFOs Appear Only In Night

Experts rule out the perception that UFOs appear only in the night. There have been many incidences when UFO appeared during daytime. The reason why people believe that they appear only in the night is because of the light they emit. However, as per experts, even during the daytime, they can still be seen with their own lights and heard with their distinctive high-pitched sound. If we take into consideration the views of thousands of eyewitnesses and their experience, those sightings are more than likely to be real. Even the radar sightings support the same.

Rapid Direction Change

The experts say UFOs are capable to change their directions very fast. Their flight is often erratic and fast and sometimes the speed is so high that it looks as if it were weightless. If experiences and observations of thousands of eyewitnesses have to be believed, we can say that UFOs fly at lightning or much faster speed. What is more, they do so breaking the sound barrier.

Thus, UFOs are the things that cannot be explained by normal senses. It requires innovative perceptions to believe in all this. In my view, we must proceed with intelligence blended with our zest to ensure that we don’t fall victim to some man-made hoaxes that are set up to pull our legs.

UFO is nothing but the sighting of strange objects and lights in the skies. There has been a quite long history regarding this. In modern world, any unexplained aerial phenomena are referred to as unidentified flying objects or flying saucers, or in short UFO.

Description of UFO

There have been various descriptions for UFOs. For example, sometimes, it has been described as glowing wheels, and some other time as colored balls of light, or objects like cigar, disk, or crescent-shaped objects.

The First Well Documented UFO Sighting

It all happened in 1561 in Nuremberg, Germany when the first ever well-documented UFO sighting occurred. Reportedly, the sight was quite interesting and surprising. Thousand of people witnessed red, blue, and black balls or plates, crosses, and tubes that appeared to battle each other in the sky over the city. A broadcast published that year supports this incident.

Flying Saucer

UFO is also teemed as Flying Saucer. This term was first coined in 1947. There is an incident associated with this. There was a businessman named Kenneth Arnold who told reporters that while he was flying a private airplane near Mount Rainier in Washington, he happened to see nine objects flying over the mountain in a formation and at a speed of more than 1,600 miles (2,500 kilometers) per hour. As per the report, Arnold said the objects as moving like a saucer skipping across the water. It was after the publication of that report that Arnold’s description was shortened and it took no time in becoming popular. Since then, Flying saucer is also used to refer a UFO.

Records of UFO Sightings

There are thousands of records of UFO sightings. This includes photos of alleged UFOs and interviews with people who claim to have seen them. Interestingly, all such reports were classified as secrets because of the reason that UFOs were considered a potential security risk. However, later when these reports were disqualified, almost ninety percent of the cases of UFO sightings were identifiable and experts found it quite easy to explain the reality behind the same. As we all know, most of these sightings were nothing but celestial objects, such as stars or bright planets like Venus, or atmospheric events such as auroras or meteors falling through the atmosphere. In many other cases, these UFO sightings turned out to be nothing else than weather balloons, satellites, aircraft lights, or formations of birds.

One thing has been proved so far that most UFO sightings are accompanied by unusual weather conditions.
