LONDON, - A Malaysian woman says she wants the United Nations to pick her as the first point of contact for aliens trying to communicate with Earth. If she has her way, astrophysicist Mazlan Othman will be the person space aliens are referred to when they say "take me to your leader," The Guardian reported. Othman is presently head of the U.N. Office for Outer Space Affairs, or Unoosa, and was expected to tell delegates about her plans at a Royal Society Conference in Buckinghamshire, England, next week, the report said. In a recent talk Othman said, "The continued search...

Former Air Force Officers: UFOs Tampered With Nuclear Missiles Updated: 2 hours 39 minutes ago (Sept. 25) -- Former U.S. Air Force officers and a former enlisted man are about to break many years of silence about an alarming series of UFO encounters at nuclear weapons sites -- incidents officially kept secret for decades. When the group appears at a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on Monday, it will offer testimony about events so chilling, it will seem like a day at a science fiction movie festival. To put you in the mood for the...

Rosswell, New Mexico... On July 8, 1947 -63 years ago- witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and mule ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico. This was of course a legendary incident that many claim has been comprehensively covered-up ever since by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and organizations. However, what you may NOT know is that in the subsequent months, on-into 1948, the following cluster of births occured: Albert A. Gore, Jr. Hillary Rodham John F. Kerry William J. Clinton Howard Dean Nancy Pelosi Dianne Feinstein Charles...

A prophet, who now goes by the name “Rael,” once encountered space aliens who told him the secret of life. Later, his followers, “the Raelians,” set up an advocacy group to expose pedophilia in the Roman Catholic Church. But the group’s work was frustrated when Pope Benedict XVI (a.k.a. Joe Ratzinger) covered up the crimes of Catholic priests, in an effort to discredit the Raelians and suppress their message.

After stalling out several times, an initiative to create a commission in Denver to study extraterrestrials is once again looking to take off. Jeff Peckman kicked off his voter education campaign this week for Initiative 300, which would establish a seven-member panel that would be charged with collecting data and research to prepare Denverites in the event of a possible alien encounter. The initiative received enough valid signatures to be placed on the November ballot. Peckman yesterday was enthusiastic about raising awareness for his initiative. [....] The Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission would consist of a seven person panel that would have...

Glitch? What's up? Got the hesitation blues

“Was der Rottenburger Kopp-Verlag macht” Google translation German to English: http://tinyurl.com/2d7t79j “Books that will open the eyes” – that is the slogan of the Kopp-Verlag. He grab specifically on issues “that are taboo in the mainstream,” says Kopp. The success of the books show that the interest was great among the people. On these issues, which “obviously can not be discussed elsewhere,” according to Kopp also includes UFOs. Which itself “convinced that there are extraterrestrial life forms,” he had after the UFO hype of the 90 years he tried with movies like “The X-Files” and “Independence Day”, “to put the...

A man from Brisbane has finally spotted 'UFO', after spending 30 years on searching for one. Erik Black, 49, who has been interested in UFOs since he was a child, revealed that he had only heard or read about them and had never seen a "real one" until 2010 election night. "I have been researching UFOs for almost all my life and every time I came to the Northern Territory for holidays I read a UFO story in the newspaper, so I thought the NT was the place to be," the Courier Mail quoted him as telling the NT News....

Enrico Fermi’s paradox has occupied us more than occasionally in these pages, and for good reason. ‘Where are they,’ asked Fermi, acknowledging an obvious fact: Even if it takes one or two million years for a civilization to develop and use interstellar travel, that is but a blip in terms of the 13.7 billion year age of the universe. Von Neumann probes designed to study other stellar systems and reproduce, moving outward in an ever expanding wave of exploration, could easily have spread across the galaxy long before our ancestors thought of building the pyramids. Where are they indeed. Kelvin...

It’s a matter of debate whether the August ‘silly season’ is a high point for crop circle reports because there’s not much other news about, or whether the warm summer nights are the ideal time for alien visitors, mischievous time-travellers and tipsy students to exercise their craft. All that we can say for certain is that there definitely seems to be a lot of it about. A magnificent 300 foot long ‘crop circle’ that seems to depict the Holy Grail has appeared in mysterious circumstances in a field close to the Avebury stone circle in Wiltshire. The crop formation was...

Fort Worth area resident Lisa Brock-Piekarski is a little freaked out by images she discovered on an infrared camera mounted at her family's favorite hunting spot. That's not because of the deer in the foreground but because of the mysterious lights in the background to the left of the animal. "What I see looks almost like a Frisbee," Brock-Piekarski told Dallas-Fort Worth NBC affiliate KXAS-TV. "You see a several lights going around, and they're all symmetrical and lit up, and it just looks like an object in the sky." While she hesitated calling it a UFO, Brock-Piekarski could not identify...

Who created mankind? According to some researchers, the answer lies with those who came from beyond the stars. The imagery of extra-terrestrial visitors who came in from other planets, and possibly even other galaxies, to seed the human race is a fascinating one, although highly speculative. Erich von Daniken, who popularised this theory with his book, Chariots of the Gods, believes that these visitors — termed as ancient astronauts — landed on Earth when the planet was still in its infancy. As part of their breeding experiments, they seeded the first human being and imparted them with the skills required...

Okay, where are all the UFO pictures? And the UFO videos? In recent years, the world has exploded with photographic and video equipment. There are about 5 billion cellphones in circulation throughout the world -- many, if not most, equipped with still and/or video cameras. (The number of mobile broadband subscriptions will probably top a billion globally this year.) And there are millions, if not billions, of easy-to-use video cameras in circulation, as well as billions of still-picture cameras. Essentially, billions of people are able to snap or otherwise shoot the least bit interesting thing that happens at a moment's...

In "UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record," journalist Leslie Kean presents 10 years of research about unidentified flying objects. 1 What does your investigation into UFOs show? That there are solid, physical objects in the sky that appear to be metallic. They're luminous, and they can maneuver in ways that defy the known laws of physics, and we can't explain what they are. 2 Are they from outer space? The extraterrestrial hypothesis has been proposed as a possible explanation. We don't know what they are.

A Bosnian man who claims he is being targeted by extraterrestrials after a series of meteorite strikes on his house has now been hit by a sixth space rock in the space of a few years. _______________________________________ Radivoje Lajic first came to international attention in 2008, shortly after the fifth meteorite had crashed into the roof of his house in the northern village of Gornji Lajici. And now, within the past month, another rock has hit the roof of his house, in defiance of all the odds - making it six strikes since the plague of meteorites began in 2007....

This video of UFO over China sure doesn't look like 'space junk' to me... Xiaoshan airport closed after a fiery UFO over China... Stunned witnesses reported seeing a comet-like fireball in the sky and a number of local residents took photos of the strange ball of light. A local bus driver, giving his name only as Yu, said he had seen a strange glowing object in the sky late on Wednesday afternoon. 'The thing suddenly ran westwards fast, like it was escaping from something,' he said. Inbound flights were diverted to nearby airports while outbound flights were delayed for three...
