UFOs Are 100% Real

By Chris Davis

(KTRN Exclusive)   When the topic of UFOs comes up in conversation, the question usually asked is: “Do you believe in them?”  My response is always the same: “What is there not to believe?”  There is historical proof that people have been seeing weird things in the sky since antiquity.  The bottom line is this:  The UFO phenomenon is 100% real – period.

Now, the question of what they are is a discussion for another article – and probably another author.  I am not claiming that UFOs are flown by reptilian space aliens from Galaxy 7 in Quadrant 19.5.  Nor am I saying they are interdimensional beings, Earthlings from the future, or some secret government force that is spying on the people.  We don’t know what they are – hence the term Unidentified Flying Objects.  They are unidentified – get it?

When the government was “officially” investigating UFOs in the 1950s and 60s with Project Blue Book, even they were baffled by many of the pictures and reports – 22% of the cases were deemed “unknown.”  Think  about this for a second, let’s just say that 5% of UFO sightings are unknown – doesn’t that make you wonder what they might be?  Isn’t it human nature to find out the truth about these types of mysteries?  There have been so many sightings over the years that it’s impossible to think that all of them are either hoaxes, conventional aircraft, secret military operations, or natural occurrences like meteors.  Even if just 1% of the sightings do not fall into any of these categories, that means at least hundreds, if not thousands, of sightings, photos and videos are absolutely unidentified.  In other words, these sightings are real UFOs – flying objects that cannot be explained.  Aren’t you curious as to what they might be?  And isn’t it odd that the government “officially” stopped looking into the phenomenon?  But it gets even weirder.

UFO sightings are not new.  In fact, they’re quite old.  In 2011, pioneer ufologist, Jacques Vallee, along with Chris Aubeck, wrote a book called Wonders in the Sky.  They reported on 500 UFO sightings from 1460 BC to 1879 AD – during a time when mankind did not have modern means of flight.  They meticulously avoided using reports that closely  resembled anything natural like a falling star.  Check out this example from 1621 in France:

Over the city of Nimes was seen something like a great sun, very resplendent, which was surrounded by other luminous torches.  It seemed to want to move straight towards the Roman Tower, over which appeared something like fiery chariots surrounded by very bright stars.

I’m not sure what natural aerial phenomenon in 1621 could move round in the sky, surrounded by other weird lights like a moving chariot.   Not to mention the object being resplendent – bright, colorful, and glowing.

Have you read the book of Ezekiel?  The whole thing is basically a UFO sighting and possible abduction.  It reads:

Then I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud with raging fire engulfing itself; and brightness was all around it and radiating out of its midst like the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire.  Also from within it came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.  Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings.

If you remove the supernatural element that these beings were angels (which Ezekiel never claims them to be) then you have to ponder what he saw and who these creatures were that came down from a “throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone.”  Ezekiel goes on to tell a tale that sounds a lot like a modern day abduction case where the creatures “lifted me up and took me away, and I went in bitterness in the heat of my spirit.”  Something happened to this man – something big.  Was it God?  Angels?  Or Extraterrestrials?  Whatever it was, he saw a glowing object flying in the sky that interacted with him personally – long before man could even dream of real flying machines.  It has to make you wonder.  By the way, Ezekiel’s story isn’t the only UFO sighting in the bible.

By now, many of you have seen Ancient Aliens on the History Channel.  It describes in great detail the ancient astronaut hypothesis – which basically states extraterrestrials have been influencing man since the dawn of our birth.  While I’m not suggesting this argument is correct, it’s interesting to note and very exciting to speculate that we have never been alone – not to mention the evidence is striking.  Visit Google and search “ancient alien artwork” and you’ll discover countless paintings from long ago that clearly depicts many modern day looking UFOs.  My favorite is Aert DeGelder’s “Baptism of Christ” from 1710.  The work depicts an obvious flying saucer with some type of light beaming down upon Christ – baptizing him.  Yes, you read that right, a painting from 1710 shows a UFO baptizing Christ.  Just where did DeGelder come up with this idea?  How and why did he paint a drawing of such a modern day type UFO phenomenon – the “beam of light.”

UFO sightings are constantly being reported.  In fact, just this week in Moscow, a large group of protesters saw something weird in the sky – a helicopter looking saucer object that many are speculating was a possible Russian spy plane.  Even the mainstream media reported on this, but like they usually do with UFOs, they did it with a tongue in cheek attitude.  Why they don’t take the phenomenon seriously is beyond me.

Hopefully in the near future, the entire world will finally know the truth about these weird objects.  However, there is one very real fact, mankind has been seeing weird flying machines in the sky for a very long time – and today the common man has no idea of what they are, why they are here, want they want, or what humanity has done that keeps them coming back, time and time again, to check in on what might be their little experiment.

 

 

Here is one of the most significant and mind blowing UFO sightings ever to be caught on film.  From Turkey – 2008.  Look closely to see the inhabitants inside the craft!

It’s the End of the World As We Know It

Apolinario Chile Pixtun is tired of being bombarded with frantic questions about the Mayan calendar supposedly “running out” on Dec. 21, 2012. After all, it’s not the end of the world.

Or is it?

Definitely not, the Mayan Indian elder insists. “I came back from England last year and, man, they had me fed up with this stuff.”

It can only get worse for him. Next month Hollywood’s “2012″ opens in cinemas, featuring earthquakes, meteor showers and a tsunami dumping an aircraft carrier on the White House.

At Cornell University, Ann Martin, who runs the “Curious? Ask an Astronomer” Web site, says people are scared.

“It’s too bad that we’re getting e-mails from fourth-graders who are saying that they’re too young to die,” Martin said. “We had a mother of two young children who was afraid she wouldn’t live to see them grow up.”

Chile Pixtun, a Guatemalan, says the doomsday theories spring from Western, not Mayan ideas.

A significant time period for the Mayas does end on the date, and enthusiasts have found a series of astronomical alignments they say coincide in 2012, including one that happens roughly only once every 25,800 years.

But most archaeologists, astronomers and Maya say the only thing likely to hit Earth is a meteor shower of New Age philosophy, pop astronomy, Internet doomsday rumors and TV specials such as one on the History Channel which mixes “predictions” from Nostradamus and the Mayas and asks: “Is 2012 the year the cosmic clock finally winds down to zero days, zero hope?”

It may sound all too much like other doomsday scenarios of recent decades – the 1987 Harmonic Convergence, the Jupiter Effect or “Planet X.” But this one has some grains of archaeological basis.

One of them is Monument Six.

Found at an obscure ruin in southern Mexico during highway construction in the 1960s, the stone tablet almost didn’t survive; the site was largely paved over and parts of the tablet were looted.

It’s unique in that the remaining parts contain the equivalent of the date 2012. The inscription describes something that is supposed to occur in 2012 involving Bolon Yokte, a mysterious Mayan god associated with both war and creation.

However – shades of Indiana Jones – erosion and a crack in the stone make the end of the passage almost illegible.

Archaeologist Guillermo Bernal of Mexico’s National Autonomous University interprets the last eroded glyphs as maybe saying, “He will descend from the sky.”

Spooky, perhaps, but Bernal notes there are other inscriptions at Mayan sites for dates far beyond 2012 – including one that roughly translates into the year 4772.

And anyway, Mayas in the drought-stricken Yucatan peninsula have bigger worries than 2012.

“If I went to some Mayan-speaking communities and asked people what is going to happen in 2012, they wouldn’t have any idea,” said Jose Huchim, a Yucatan Mayan archaeologist. “That the world is going to end? They wouldn’t believe you. We have real concerns these days, like rain.”

The Mayan civilization, which reached its height from 300 A.D. to 900 A.D., had a talent for astronomy

Its Long Count calendar begins in 3,114 B.C., marking time in roughly 394-year periods known as Baktuns. Thirteen was a significant, sacred number for the Mayas, and the 13th Baktun ends around Dec. 21, 2012.

“It’s a special anniversary of creation,” said David Stuart, a specialist in Mayan epigraphy at the University of Texas at Austin. “The Maya never said the world is going to end, they never said anything bad would happen necessarily, they’re just recording this future anniversary on Monument Six.”

Bernal suggests that apocalypse is “a very Western, Christian” concept projected onto the Maya, perhaps because Western myths are “exhausted.”

If it were all mythology, perhaps it could be written off.

But some say the Maya knew another secret: the Earth’s axis wobbles, slightly changing the alignment of the stars every year. Once every 25,800 years, the sun lines up with the center of our Milky Way galaxy on a winter solstice, the sun’s lowest point in the horizon.

That will happen on Dec. 21, 2012, when the sun appears to rise in the same spot where the bright center of galaxy sets.

Another spooky coincidence?

“The question I would ask these guys is, so what?” says Phil Plait, an astronomer who runs the “Bad Astronomy” blog. He says the alignment doesn’t fall precisely in 2012, and distant stars exert no force that could harm Earth.

“They’re really super-duper trying to find anything astronomical they can to fit that date of 2012,” Plait said.

But author John Major Jenkins says his two-decade study of Mayan ruins indicate the Maya were aware of the alignment and attached great importance to it.

“If we want to honor and respect how the Maya think about this, then we would say that the Maya viewed 2012, as all cycle endings, as a time of transformation and renewal,” said Jenkins.

As the Internet gained popularity in the 1990s, so did word of the “fateful” date, and some began worrying about 2012 disasters the Mayas never dreamed of.

Author Lawrence Joseph says a peak in explosive storms on the surface of the sun could knock out North America’s power grid for years, triggering food shortages, water scarcity – a collapse of civilization. Solar peaks occur about every 11 years, but Joseph says there’s evidence the 2012 peak could be “a lulu.”

While pressing governments to install protection for power grids, Joseph counsels readers not to “use 2012 as an excuse to not live in a healthy, responsible fashion. I mean, don’t let the credit cards go up.”

Another History Channel program titled “Decoding the Past: Doomsday 2012: End of Days” says a galactic alignment or magnetic disturbances could somehow trigger a “pole shift.”

“The entire mantle of the earth would shift in a matter of days, perhaps hours, changing the position of the north and south poles, causing worldwide disaster,” a narrator proclaims. “Earthquakes would rock every continent, massive tsunamis would inundate coastal cities. It would be the ultimate planetary catastrophe.”

The idea apparently originates with a 19th century Frenchman, Charles Etienne Brasseur de Bourbourg, a priest-turned-archaeologist who got it from his study of ancient Mayan and Aztec texts.

Scientists say that, at best, the poles might change location by one degree over a million years, with no sign that it would start in 2012.

While long discredited, Brasseur de Bourbourg proves one thing: Westerners have been trying for more than a century to pin doomsday scenarios on the Maya. And while fascinated by ancient lore, advocates seldom examine more recent experiences with apocalypse predictions.

“No one who’s writing in now seems to remember that the last time we thought the world was going to end, it didn’t,” says Martin, the astronomy webmaster. “There doesn’t seem to be a lot of memory that things were fine the last time around.”
