In September 2018, at 11 o’clock at night, as I strolled with my wife and daughter along the edge of the lagoon in Venice, Italy, I witnessed what is formally known as Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).
A dozen bright lights flew in tight formation high in the starry night, then started twirling around each other in an impossibly playful way, and finally disappeared in a flash over the horizon. Not a sound was heard. Nothing I know could have moved like that. These weren’t drones or planes.
A mysterious “extraterrestrial” radio signal picked up in 1977 is likely to have a natural origin, scientists have found.
The infamous “Wow” signal sparked global interest when it was captured by Ohio State University’s Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project nearly 50 years ago.
The team, which was scanning the sky for signs of intelligent life, detected a powerful, 72-second radio burst so unusual that leading astronomer Jerry Ehman scribbled “Wow!” on the computer printout.
Humans dream of finding life on Mars — but could our fascination with this neighbouring planet broadcast our existence to aliens who live much further away?
A review of the most powerful signals that humans have sent into space has shed light on how extraterrestrials might find us.
The study analysed the logs of Nasa’s Deep Space Network (DSN), an array of radio dishes in California, Spain and Australia that communicate with the agency’s far-flung spacecraft. It concluded that the bulk of humanity’s most powerful, persistent signals into the cosmos had been directed not at distant stars but at machines orbiting or roving the red planet.

Fresh claims about the infamous 2004 ‘Tic Tac’ UFO encounter are reigniting fierce debate over the true nature of the mysterious craft observed by US Navy pilots off the coast of Southern California.
Journalist and UFO investigator Ross Coulthart has sparked controversy by asserting that the craft, captured on video and later released by the Pentagon, is actually advanced man-made technology developed by aerospace giant Lockheed Martin.
Coulthart suggested the craft may have been operated psionically, controlled through advanced mental or neurological means, and could be the product of reverse-engineering non-human technology recovered by the US government.
Why did Trump’s Cabinet give different answers for UFO sightings?
If I recall correctly the encounters have taken place exclusively in designated USN training areas.
Defense giant Lockheed Martin just reported a rare — and yuge — quarterly loss of $1.6 billion, but CEO James D. Taiclet sounded unfazed, thanks to a “magical” classified aeronautics program he claims will create a “game-changing capability for our joint U.S. and international customers.”
Is it a bird? A plane? Superman?
Before we get to the speculation — and there is some juicy stuff — a quick look at how the company lost so much money on something that Taiclet said Lockheed “probably won’t be able to talk about what that is for many years to come.”
This has long been the subject of intense speculation – reverse engineered UFO tech or the result of a US research breakthrough? Beats me Scully.
Salvatore Pais, who filed a space-travel patent on behalf of the US navy, believes that aliens are real and that China wants to steal his science
Ten years ago, the US navy filed a patent that seemed to describe aircraft that could soar into space and accelerate at speeds faster than light.
At the time, conspiracy theorists said it was evidence that the military had discovered UFOs and was re-engineering alien technology. The navy did not address such claims and has since let the patents lapse.
But now Salvatore Pais, 57, the aerospace engineer who invented the science behind the patents and filed them on behalf of the navy, said he was worried the Chinese were developing the same technology.
The skies — and the government — could be hiding more than we know.
An interview with Diana Walsh Pasulka by Ross Douthat
… Douthat: How did that pull you into studying people who claim to have had a U.F.O.-style encounter?
Pasulka: When I was doing my work for the book about the Catholic doctrine of Purgatory, that brought me to a lot of archives. I’d go into the archives — and archives are places where things aren’t digitized — and I started to look into how Catholics viewed how souls ascended into Heaven or Purgatory.
What I found was a lot of documents from 1,000 years ago, 800 or 500 years ago, about recorded sightings of aerial phenomena that Catholics had from Europe.
Canada needs a federal department to ensure proper reporting and transparency around public UFO sightings, according to a new report.
The July 14 “Sky Canada Project” report, commissioned by the Office of the Chief Science Advisor of Canada, sets forth recommendations aimed at improving unidentified aerial or anomalous phenomena (UAP) research and reporting, enhancing public trust, and addressing “misinformation and disinformation in the public dialogue” around UAPs.
The Canadian government’s top scientist has released a new report on unidentified flying objects.
Published Monday, the report from the Office of the Chief Science Advisor of Canada recommends the creation of a new federal body to standardize, collect and investigate UFO reports.
“The mystery of unidentified phenomena in the sky has long fascinated humanity, capturing the public imagination and arousing both skepticism and curiosity,” the new report states. “Together, the analysis presented in this report suggests that Canada would benefit from an improved process for reporting, collecting, and studying UAP sightings.”
Are We REALLY Making Tic Tac UFOs? – Richard Dolan Show
THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE: Ottawa’s top science advisor revives UFO research
Canada’s chief science advisor quietly launched a government project to study unidentified flying objects and the possibility of alien civilizations, without parliamentary oversight or a public budget.
Dr. Mona Nemer, who earns $393,000 a year, began the Sky Canada Project two years ago and assigned seven staff to the initiative.
The Pentagon man gathered top technology executives from the six largest defense contractors in 2022 to ask an unusual question: Have any of your companies ever gained access to alien technology?
“It would just make my job easier if one of you would ’fess up, give me the UFO, or help me find them,” said Sean Kirkpatrick, who had been tapped by the Defense Department to investigate whether Washington had ever had a secret alien program.
The comment was made half jokingly, but for one company, Lockheed Martin, the answer was…complicated.
The WSJ has become the disinfo journal but their glaring omissions leave a massive credibility gap. Citing Sean Kirkpatrick is just the beginning.
A tiny Pentagon office had spent months investigating conspiracy theories about secret Washington UFO programs when it uncovered a shocking truth: At least one of those theories had been fueled by the Pentagon itself.
The congressionally ordered probe took investigators back to the 1980s, when an Air Force colonel visited a bar near Area 51, a top-secret site in the Nevada desert. He gave the owner photos of what might be flying saucers. The photos went up on the walls, and into the local lore went the idea that the U.S. military was secretly testing recovered alien technology.
But the colonel was on a mission—of disinformation. The photos were doctored, the now-retired officer confessed to the Pentagon investigators in 2023. The whole exercise was a ruse to protect what was really going on at Area 51: The Air Force was using the site to develop top-secret stealth fighters, viewed as a critical edge against the Soviet Union. Military leaders were worried that the programs might get exposed if locals somehow glimpsed a test flight of, say, the F-117 stealth fighter, an aircraft that truly did look out of this world. Better that they believe it came from Andromeda.
Case specifics aside the disinformation campaign was not “unknown”.
Following the death of Pope Francis, UFO activists are intensifying calls for the Vatican to open its secret archives.
Many believe the archives contain long-hidden evidence of extraterrestrial visitations that have been framed as divine visions in centuries past.
Some, like US Pentagon whistleblower David Grusch, go even further, alleging the Vatican has known about alien life for decades and actively covered it up.
Another glowing dot video just dropped, no idea what this is.
