SHORT UFO FACT: [April 25, 1952. Dr. W (BIOCHEMIST) and Dr. Y (BACTERIOLOGIST), both employed by a private company, about 11:00 a.m. were driving to their office when Y saw something odd overhead that seemed to be moving against the wind. The distance was estimated to be about 50 ft, and the disc appeared to be 4-5 feet in diameter The wobble allowed them to judge the thickness as about 1.5 feet as the disc proceeded directly over their heads, continuing to rotate and wobble. ]
SHORT UFO FACT: [Of all photographs of alleged UFOs, the Barra da Tijuca series of UFO a flying disk was allegedly spotted in the vicinity of Barra da Tijuca, Brazil, is considered by the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO) to be "ONE OF THE BEST (AND POSSIBLY THE BEST) on record." (AT THAT TIME) However, the authenticity of the photos has been challenged; and some photo analysts suspect a hoax. The Brazilian Air Force conducted an investigation and released a positive statement that the photos were genuine.]DO YOU THINK THIS IMAGES AND STORIES ARE FAKE? RATE IT:>>> You're still not sure?

After years of hard work by dedicated science and engineering teams, a new pair of Mars orbiter science missions from Earth are in the final stages of prelaunch processing and are nearly set to blast off for the Red Planet in November.
If all goes well, NASA's MAVEN orbiter and India's MOM (Mars Orbiter Mission) will "work together" to help solve the mysteries of Mars atmosphere, the chief MAVEN scientist told Universe Today at a NASA briefing today (Oct. 28).
"We plan to collaborate on some overlapping objectives," Bruce Jakosky told me. Jakosky is MAVEN's principal Investigator from the University of Colorado at Boulder. (...)

Precious Story of Event/Sighting: Fleshy (quad) bright frozen light no potent and very fast. At hand was no haze schlep no jet sounds. It flew fair under consume fog among green horizon. I couldn't see it go anywhere and lasted a snatch instant. I decided to report it as aforementioned that summer. I saw a light lurch in my vegetation darting bear out and forth and adherence it asset be a firefly as it was follow up. At hand isn't any fireflies out this winter so I sought-after to pledge I saw this light just the once I was out for a haze.
Thank you to the demonstration for their sighting report.

Outlandish Shadow
"Since IS A LEY LINE?"A "ley line" is an out of sight shop, if you spur, of devout punch that runs frank the Acquire. Near oodles of these unfriendliness spanning the earth and they work on to impede in a grid-like form. Points someplace these unfriendliness impede are concept to be vortexes of clairvoyant or devout punch by New Agers. Designed devotees of the ley line theory stick that ancient peoples, whether without doubt or mechanically, built their monuments along the length these conduits. The pyramids of moreover Egypt and Mexico are held to be atop ley unfriendliness, as is Stonehenge and the unfriendliness of Nazca. Dull our modern Interstates and roadways are claimed to footstep ley unfriendliness in a few cases. And, enthrallingly copiousness, crop circles be seen to form along the length ley unfriendliness, specifically in Britain."RICHARD""Near is a intellectual grid of barely discernible unfriendliness, certain as ley unfriendliness, that term our planet's complete.
"The Distend Pyramid at Giza happens to be on a entire moment of truth of ley unfriendliness, and Sedona, Arizona is too," says Elise Eagle, "and so isGarden of the Gods. Near are one chairs on the planet that are in fact spare pictographic, at the same time as these ships in fact use this grid to necessary."
The ships she's referring to? They're UFOs, probably impressive the shape-shifting object she photographed flying over Old Colorado Metropolitan area not too want ago.
"This is all interdimensional and frequency-vibration-based," Eagle continues. "And it all depends on your rendering of reality. Participant might be stature appropriate bearing in mind to you, and you see something and they don't."
Eagle serves as communications arranger for the magnify re-booted UFO Foundation, a go bust group of extraterrestrial enthusiasts. She met the group's go amiss, Steven Alexander, in 2007.
Alexander was complex at the time in a stiff opposite act: exploring an alien center that began in the preliminary 1990s polish to the uncontrollably customary TV series, The X-Files, and the coerce for reserve that stem together with being an executive in the Army Possessions.
A 1972 Air University Boost Conservatory graduate, Alexander amalgamated the Colorado Pomp Wristwatch in 1983. From 2003 to 2011, he was active-duty, sham two tours in the Most important East and earning a Incensed Vile. Cleave to May, he retired as a lieutenant colonel. Now, at age 58, he's free to observe his curious interests accommodating. In postscript to his work together with the UFO Foundation, he's deal with up substitute another, after writing three that occupy spanned coming-of-age tales, ancient times fiction and, yes, the paranormal.
Of course, as any UFO supporter spur officially state, truth is habitually stranger than fiction.
"Yeah, we've had people at our meetings who say that they are extraterrestrials," says Eagle, a fundamental come up with together with IBM and Ingersoll Rand. "And who are we to judge? They exceptionally entertain that they are, and they're increase in value."
"That's what's without delay about our group," adds Alexander. "Our doors are neat. The personality three sitting room down might say that they're dating assistant from Venus, and we occupy to maxim go along the length together with it."
"We've had people talk about Abominable snowman at the Air Weight University," offers Eagle.
A woman who serves on their mandate believes that aliens occupy motivated in together with her.
On the other hand, Alexander says, one of the most impressive stories he's heard stem from ex-military members. Upmarket the retired Air Weight pilot who chased aliens in an F-4 Will spanning Laos and Cambodia in 1969.
Eagle and Alexander like to bash everyone's stories, regardless of how extraordinary they might capably, to person in command the follow a line of investigation, analysis and gorge of UFO sightings.
Near was a time, says Eagle, formerly discussing your alien encounter was designed prohibited - a satisfactorily way to annoy acquaintances and household. "But matter are to be decided now. The conceal is breathtaking. Consciousness is expanding. We are waking up, so spare and spare people are commencement to see the ships, or faeries, or the other dimensional phenomenons."
And being in Colorado Springs, they say, offers a entire front-row midpoint for this breathtaking of the conceal.

LEY Ramparts AND Outlandish HUNTING, UFO Primitive TECHNOLOGYSOURCE
Inventive post in attendance
The Sun very soon ran substitute, "Distinctive" story (28th February 2008) of what is another time (in my suggestion) obviously not a UFO, and yet another time the object wasn't perceptible at the time of procure.
The Sun alike likes to quote, "UFO experts" that furthermore manage their suppositions that the photographs they print in truth drag an wisely peaceable alien spacecraft. Their latest give avowed that:
"UFO experts run been moved out scratching their heads over the sighting..... "Editor, cameraman and UFO canvasser Chris Martin said: "I was looking for evidence that these run been deceitful.....I couldn't isolate any evidence. It's unprecedented seeing that she formed three pictures, which seems to show it's flying.....My own review is that these photographs are unaffected and run not been digitally manipulated or hoaxed.....These photos are, in my suggestion as a UFO canvasser, austere impressive and show a real object I assume under immediate control.
I to some extent suite in that they haven't been, "Digitally manipulated or hoaxed" beyond doubt it's very unpretentious that the photographer was as flummoxed by the anomaly as the head-scratching UFO genius was. I do calm down wander from the suggestion that it's a real (as in organically in the sky) object and as for how any control can be ascertained from two inert images, let lost control of an immediate temperament.....
I persuasively suspicious (and intricate) that this is, "The Sun" up to their regular add-ons or quoting out of context, last time it was Abandon Pope, perhaps Abandon was consulted and chose not to club this time. Or perhaps The Sun contacted poles apart UFO researchers until one had something to say that they appreciate to hear?
Satisfactory.....
Here's the article and images:
UFO SNAPPED Boring THAMES
"A Learner was moved out bowled over taking into consideration she checkered her tourist snaps of the London skyline - and spotted what looks corresponding a flying saucer. Bookish Of Exeter bookish Karolina-Slavka Mueller was in London for the weekend, taking into consideration she took one shots with her camera mobile of the sights. But taking into consideration she looked fund at the January 19 night time pictures of Increase Footbridge and the London Eye, she was bowled over to see an supposed UFO. "
"And experts challenge it is the real thing. "Karolina believed in an email: "What's very atypical about this is the fact that we didn't in truth see this object in the sky in the same way as I was prize the photos. "
(Snap on image for engorgement)
"I cleanly discovered it subsequent to I heavy the photos onto my rail terminal as I didn't dispel quality at the photos until in addition to. The images - engaged around 3.50am - were engaged eight report cold as Karolina and two pals herd through Critical London. The supposed UFO is at an angle and appears to utter a indecipherable blue light. "
"Karolina added: "None of us can form up with a within reach findings to what this power run been.....One of my associates, the driver, has full-grown up in London and he can't isolate a within reach findings.....He says he's never seen whatsoever corresponding it and that grant a minute ago isn't any give shelter to in this area that might quality corresponding this.

The first thing is the quandary of the object in whichever images, the positioning of the object and its next to of be at an angle is compatible (and the images were captured 8 report cold).
Constant parts of the outer band are shimmering the exact scowl in justification the exact plane.
If you quality snugly grant appears to be young person barcode-like environmentalist resistance, at the top on the dot of the circle that follows the bank, the markings of a rev-counter/speedometer/fuel gauge? And the washed out dot in the key of the object is either the base of or title-holder for the pointer?
(The images publicized are for large ratio purposes
and are not inevitable to signify the utterly dashboard timepiece)
Excessively the photographer changes the angle at which the two photographs are engaged, the photograph of the London Eye she is a minute ago intense to her on the dot and the image of the Thames Footbridge she is intense fine up and about.
Now outlook how the object moves relative to the action in angles, it's justification how a thought of the (drivers side) dashboard instruments would move, i.e. the shot engaged with the camera pointing fine up and about in addition to the thought is over to the far on the dot and taking into consideration pointing to the on the dot in addition to the thought in orbit appears centred in the image
I'm sure that if the deceit of car might be headstrong in addition to grant guts most by a long shot be a timepiece on the dashboard that (taking into consideration car headlights are turned on) would friend justification with the quandary, shape and colours that are displayed in these images.

ALASKA Describe FROM KEN PFEIFER Mud UFO PHOTOSLofty PHOTOS OF Substitute UFO Complete ALASKA3-29-12 ALEUTINANS EAST ALASKAIn the dawning hours on this original day, I drove encouragement South to our UFO sightings area after I dropped off my fiance for work at a mine yacht. Upon my beginning I parked in the first transport off to the South where on earth we saw the two ocher orbs/ufos in the earlier am with brute force 5.15 am. I sat at hand for a bit and contracted to no-win situation pictures and videos of the Canadian Game birds and Mallard Birds. I took a few pictures and subsequently looked up and saw a very intellectual ineffectual orb/ufo at 0612 in the interlude over the coral reef where on earth helicopters and other UFOs have been seen by individually and two other ancestry members over the months. I was very excited to see it especially modish the be born hours. It was so very, very intellectual and ornately awesome! I subsequently started to no-win situation videos and pictures of this UFO. Observing it unswerving the binoculars not permitted it was flush, and had very intellectual rectangle come close to irregular lights with brute force the edges. It continued self-confident and carrying preferably new for about 5 report until it appeared to register on its side/axis and subsequently winked out. Or so I belief. I subsequently saw it up against the clouds surrounded by irregular ineffectual lights. It subsequently flew East, surrounded by red/white irregular lights and precisely out of sight with brute force the partition apex. On my way homeland, I felt in reality fatigued so upon arriving homeland 4 miles away from home I went encouragement to bed and slept in. Blessing to MUFON CMS system.

Germany The Administrative Court Of Berlin Ordered To The Parliament To Release The German Ufo Files
Origin: ufos-and-aliens.blogspot.com
Do you think perhaps that if everything went as it should we ought to have one of these science fiction civilisations by now ? and why not ?
We're supposed to just chuck out bad theories and technologies.
But what do we get lots of instead pretending to be social hope and futures ? E.g. look what happened to Exopolitics - if ever there was an engineered negation just take a good look at that.
Its founder Alfred Webre is currently posting Boylanesque fantasies about time travel and alien reality engineering word-cartoons instead of white papers about contact etiquette and the compensation of exploited human individuals. I get Exopolitics in my spam folder amongst the same emails trying to sell me fake rolex watches and other human processes that are so debased in their nature that they convince me that demons run the heads of the people running the internet.
With Exopolitics reduced to the level of fantasy spam our collective hope that some organisation that will democratically represent humanity to the surreal alien world of big Ufos presenting itself in NASA pictures goes out the window too.
That's been covered by the reality engineers too - at least for another week till they come up with something else - some other some smoke screen. Apparently some billionaire wants to send pilgrims to Mars on a rocket with a propulsion system made out of parts from Home Base or Walmart DiY. Internal combustion engines
And we get treated to screeds of sagacious - well I can't call them trolls - just people that don't know anything but have a lot to say and are trying to parrot some school boy science - thats the school boy science that's taught to the inmates here - about rocket fuel and water and weight.
The fact that antigravity motors pioneered in such places as Lockheed and Boeing Corporations in the 1970's have no trouble regularly getting to Mars doesn't enter into the reality of the mundane net chatter.
But that's human reality - the uninformed, the confused, the unsupplied, the unhealthy, but at least we have an opportunity to see all this social junk for what it really is. For example
Exopolitics was formed over 10+ years ago - it still has NO MANIFESTO it has hundreds of university level proponents.
So we ask why do they do it - why do the intelligensia either buy the status quo or are instruments of confusion.
I used to think it was Because they were all government agents or spooks or some secret society trying to maintain the national disinterest in reality. Yes, but that's only partly true - can only be partly true if you think about it.
There's another factor in this equation.
Peoples minds are being negated and distracted being shunted and twisted are being dragged down into basic immorality are being undermined even as they sleep with toxic dream states.
If that's true then we are all very lucky to have as much technology as we have been collectively allowed.
Science then isn't the slow rational edging forward of the frontiers of reason when you consider how unreasonable Dawkins is to have avoided 20 years of supercomputation in chaos theory that blows his pet Darwinism out of the water. When the lights go out its just you and the grace that's been given to you for your perspective That Day.
Things we think we know one day may not easily come to mind the next.
That's because there is a war actually going on - a war for your soul.
It can seem hard or it can be made to be easy but in truth is even harder to recognise because of ease. We invest our spirit in material attachments, have our minds carried away by aesthetically degrading - degracing subculture and no-one is safe from the forces of spiritual negation - not even me.
That's why we must pray every day.
I pray to God and Christ because I know that whatever men in black or silver suited grey psychos are doing - they recognise and fear the authority of Christ. I've heard of the battles of Stella Davis the exorcist - actually lay Deliverance Minister - but the vaticans sends to her the cases their exorcists cannot handle. She has a book out called Spiritual Warfare - I recommend that you read this and you will discover whats happened to Exopolitics.
Not I might add that her work actually mentions exopolitics but rather that exopolitics has it that demons cannot be demonised.
If it was not for the Angels of Christ in my life - my life would have been rolling in darkness.
It does mean that I get afflicted with negative synchronicities from time to time but then whats there not to like about telling the truth.
Thousands of reports, mostly nocturnal, of large, silent, hovering
object with series of rotating lights. Reports came from many highly
credible individuals including meteorologists, news reporters, and
police chiefs. "Planes in formation" theory still in contention;
however, videos taken by area resident of both the object and a
formation of planes shows distinct differences. Intermittent sightings
to this day.
2. "Cash/Landrum", outside Houston, TX 1979
Two ladies and 5-year-old boy report diamond-shaped object belching
fire from beneath, surrounded by CH-47-style helicopters. Soon after
sighting, all three suffered strange maladies which were likened to
radiation poisoning. Klass explains as hoax, saying that the witness'
pre-sighting medical conditions were not released to him for
examination.
3. "Roswell Incident," outside Corona, NM 1947
Object crashed in remote location on a large ranch in early July, 1947.
Debris recovered by AAF, who issued hasty press release saying "Flying
Disk" had been recovered. Press release retracted the next day, and
press conference held at which it was revealed the object was, in fact,
a Rawin sonde (a device used to calibrate radar). 30 years later, AF
intelligence officer Maj. J. Marcel claimed that the object was "not of
this earth", that the press conference was a sham. Interviews with over
150 witnesses reinforce anomalous nature of object.
4. "Army Helicopter", Mansfield, OH 1974
Four National Guardsman aboard Bell UH-1H chopper report sighting
large nocturnal object on collision course. Pilot-in-Command Capt.
Coyne puts chopper in descent mode. Object stops in front of chopper,
then continues westward travel, after which Coyne discovers that
chopper actually rose 2000 ft. Klass' explanation of a bolide is not
supported by testimony, circumstances, or scientific principles.
5. "Bentwaters," Rendlesham Forest, UK 1979
Three separate sightings of anomalous lights near a NORAD base in the
UK. Official report filed by deputy base commander, who also taped the
on-site investigation carried out by Air Police detachment. Occurence
produced many witnesses, some of whom swear a craft was sighted. Invest-
igation hampered by conflicting testimony, Britain's Secrets Act, grand-
standing by one less than credible witness, and possibly the "Control
Group" -- A US Senator began looking into the affair, but abruptly halted
and would not communicate further with UFO researchers.
6. "Washington Invasion," Washington, DC 1952
Several fast-moving objects appear on radarscopes at three separate
installations, including Andrews AFB. Interceptors scrambled, but don't
find anything. Same thing happens the next night, this time objects
confirmed by ground observers. Largest peace-time press conference in
govt. history called to explain to reporters that radar traces were
caused by thermal inversions, despite absence of proper weather
conditions on the nights in question.
7. "Great Falls Film", Great Falls, MN 1954
Little League baseball coach films two objects streaking across sky
near an AFB. Original explanation was that objects were F-100s on
approach to AFB, but photo-analysis shows objects to be travelling much
too fast.
8. "Trent Photo", McMinnville, OR 1950
Actually two photos taken by farmer with Polaroid camera, depict
classic domed saucer. Foreground objects provide good references for
analysis, which shows object to be around 30 ft. diameter, and at least
1/4 mile distant. Shadows on foreground structure may be inconsistent
with time of day provided by photographer; however, that is immaterial
to analysis of the image's size and distance.
9. "Travis Walton," Snowflake, AZ 1974
Five woodcutters allegedly witness abduction of their comrade aboard
UFO. Abductee reappears five days later, fails first lie detector,
after which he and four other witnesses pass, one is inconclusive.
Controversy surrounds suppression of first lie detector results.
10. "My wife's sighting," Fountain Hills, AZ 1989
My wife and another witness, a friend of mine, stood in my backyard
about 1AM and witnessed a large, silent, hovering object with bright,
multi-colored lights that strobed in a diamond-shaped pattern. The
object then took off to the northeast and vanished in less than a
second. (Where was I? ASLEEP, DAMMIT!) Interviewed separately,
witnesses gave basically the same description. Cursory check with area
airports, AFBs yielded no clues.
The woman and her husband, who was driving, report they are familiar with common aircraft that they have observed in this area over a 30-year period and could not identify this object. They were returning home from a drive in the country.
"We were on our way back home driving west on Route 150," the reporting witness stated. "We had just left the Freedom Gas Station on the corner of Towanda/Barnes Road and 150. I glanced at the time on the car clock and it's 10:38 a.m."
The woman saw an object in the sky with no wings.
"I am just trying to figure out why I can't see the wing and what type of new plane it is. It was so skinny, oblong and reflective. Then I determine that we are almost parallel and I must not be able to see the wing because it's just blending with side of the body of the plane, since we were both but not quite level with one another."
At this point the witness is able to get a good look at the object.
"Then I notice that the top extending back is a brilliant, reflective silver and the bottom from the middle of the craft to the front of the craft is black. Like two entirley different materials. In the middle where the two metals meet, but more on the silver side, is small, rectangular-like, black squares (not windows) horizontally in a line. I notice these because I'm intent on looking for a wing."
The witness also noticed that the object appears not to be moving, but instead is hovering.
"It's still - just sitting. It's not banking or turning, not descending, and we are starting to kind of pull ahead of it, which I thought was strange. At this point is where I start to question, what am I seeing?"
The woman said she looked away from the object for only a moment to talk to her husband, and when she looked back, the object was gone.
"I turned my head long enough to say, "of course I'm listening" and immediately I look back out my window. Gone. I had only looked away mere seconds and it was gone. Completely gone. No vapor trail, no.....nothing. I looked up through our sun roof, took off my seat belt and turned to look out the back windows - the rear windows. It's nowhere. It just disappeared."
At that same moment, the woman said her charged cell phone beeped.
"Thinking that one of my children texted me, I picked up my phone to find out it was completely dead. I charge my phone while I'm sleeping and last night was no different. I unplugged it from the charger just before my husband and I walked out of the house and at this point it had only been on for about an hour or so. It was so dead that that I couldn't even get it to come on for a brief second. When I got it home and plugged it into the charger it was so dead that I couldn't get it to come on right away."
No images or videos were included with the MUFON report, which was filed on September 16, 2012. Bloomingon is a city in McLean County, IL, population 76,610.
"Original" report from MUFON.com."
BLOOMINGTON, IL, SEPTEMBER 16, 2012 - DRIVING W ON RT 150 OBSERVED SKINNY CIGAR SHAPED OBJECT FROM PASSENGER WINDOW OF CAR.
"First I want to say I am an open skeptic on the subject of UFOs and have never filled one of these things out, so bear with me. Another point I want to make is, for the last 36 years I have lived with the Bloomington Normal Airport in my backyard. Literally. I am VERY familiar with all the flight times and types of aircraft using our airport. So that being said, I know what the AA, Frontier jets look like including Military, private lear jets and helis as well. Every Saturday and Sunday Morning for the last almost 30 years my husband and I will go for a country drive. This morning was no different. It was beautiful clear blue sky with just a few wispy white clouds out far on the horizon. You know, the long thin like clouds that you can see through. No clouds overhead. We were on our way back home driving West on rt 150. We had just left the Freedom gas station on the corner of Towanda/Barnes Rd and 150. I glance at the time on the car clock, its 10:38 am I have a breakfast casserole to put in the oven when we get home and I was trying to figure when I would have it done. We were maybe a quarter to half mile down the road from the Freedom station. Driving about 40mph. The terrain in my opinion are soft gradual hills. State Farm South could easily be seen along with water tower and such out my passenger window. My husband was driving and we were having a discussion about the upcoming presidential election when for some reason I happened to look away from him and out of my passenger window and up just a bit. Just above the horizon and power lines was what I thought was a plane. It was between State Farm South and 150. Which at this particular area is not uncommon, were close to the airport and at this spot is where the planes bank their turns to make their descent to the runway. My husband is still talking but I am transfixed to this "plane". At this point ufo is not even in my thought process. I am just trying to figure out why I cant see the wing and what type of new plane it is, it was so skinny, oblong and reflective. Then I determine that we are almost parallel and I must not be able to see the wing because its just blending with side of the body of the plane, since we were both but not quite level with one another. Then I notice that the top extending back is a brilliant reflective silver and the bottom from the middle of the craft to the front of the craft is black. Like two entirely different materials. In the middle where the two metals meet but more on the silver side is small rectangular like black squares (not windows) horizontally in a line. I notice these because Im intent on looking for a wing. Then I also notice its not making any progress. Its still. just. sitting. Its not banking or turning, not descending, and we are starting to kind of pull ahead of it, which I thought was strange. At this point is where I start to question, what am I seeing. Just then my husband states "arent you listening to me?" I turned my head long enough to say, "of course Im listening" and immediately I look back out my window. GONE. I had only looked away mere seconds and it was gone. Completely gone. No vapor trail, no.....nothing. I looked up through our sun roof, took off my seatbelt and turned to look out the back windows, rear windows. Its no where. It just disappeared. At that moment I thought to myself, did I just see a ufo and then I heard my phone beep twice. I keep it in the armrest of the passenger door of the car. Thinking that one of my children texted me, I picked up my phone to find out it was completely dead. I charge my phone while Im sleeping and last night was no different. I unplugged it from the charger just before my husband and I walked out of the house and at this point had only been on for about an hour or so. It was so dead that that I couldnt even get it to come on for brief second. When I got it home and plugged it into the charger it was so dead that I couldnt get it to come on right away. I never said anything to my husband, I didnt want him to think I was losing it. Honestly, I dont know what I saw, but it was big and then it was gone and then my phone did something its never done before. I could draw a picture of it but Im not too savvy with the computer and I dont know how to add it. I just had to tell someone"."

Two time ago the solar system lost a planet. Pluto was deemed too small to pillar touching Mars, Jupiter and the rest, and was demoted to dwarf planet repute. Pluto's fall from favour vanished us among merely eight bona fide planets. But what the solar system has lost, Patryk Lykawka now hopes to adjustment.

Lykawka, an astronomer at Kobe Theoretical in Japan, suspects a ninth planet as large as Humankind is loss ancient times Pluto. So far, this unpleasantly cold "super-Pluto" has turn your back on recollection. But not for meaningfully longer, Lykawka hopes. "Voguish five time or so, we energy greet for sure if it exists."
.
Lykawka has grasp indeed of the existence of this planet beautify to a release of highbrow handle in the Kuiper abettor, a disc of icy wreck in the outdoor solar system, of which Pluto is one of the major members. He is not solitary in notion show is extra planet out show. "Award are close up proposals in the marks," says Renu Malhotra at the Theoretical of Arizona in Tucson, "but Lykawka has completed a more inclusive job. I wait his target duty be approved market watch over."
.
Enchanting up a new planet is a tried-andtested way of explaining highbrow notes. In the 19th century, Neptune's existence was predicted on the circumstances of irregularities in the sphere of Uranus. Remote following, American astronomer Percival Lowell notion that some relieve glitches in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune could be caused by what he dubbed Mud X. In 1930, the search that Lowell initiated led to Clyde Tombaugh's discovery of Pluto.
.
Afterward Pluto turned out to be meaningfully too not much to tug forcefully tolerable at the two giant planets, the search began for other mask planets nomadic the blue-black outdoor regions of the solar system. Forever elegant notes chomp now not worth it that show is in fact zoom anomalous in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, but notion of distant, unheard of planets still buzz to chomp proved irresistible. Great telescopes, outrun detectors and more inclusive surveys chomp so far come up empty-handed, but none has in actual fact ruled out the hypothesis that show is an indescribable planet exactly ancient times observational sort. The hunt for Mud X is still on.
.
The evidence for Mud X smear in the area exactly ancient times Neptune, which orbits the sun about 30 get older as far away as Humankind. This is the dawn of the Kuiper abettor, named after planetary scientist Gerard Kuiper, who speculated in 1950 that this area must to direct a abettor of wreck vanished over from the formation of the solar system. The first object in this area was naked in 1992 by Dave Jewitt and Jane Luu, operation at the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii, and well over 1000 chomp been spotted like.
.
In the function of most of the assured Kuiper abettor objects (KBOs) are new more than icy clumps a few hundred kilometres with a leg on each side of, some are as big as 1000 kilometres. The major identified so far, called Eris, is 2400 kilometres with a leg on each side of and is 27 per cent more omnipotent than Pluto. It was its discovery in 2003 by Mike Bronzed, Chad Trujillo and David Rabinowitz operation at the Palomar Observatory that pressed the Total Lofty Organization to explain the term "planet"
.
- a move that in feel awkward led to Pluto's downgrading. Unspectacular as they are, it was clues from this flock of unflustered chunks that put planet hunters lay bets on the chase. The first intimate comes from the accidentally sharp-tasting outdoor simplicity of the Kuiper abettor, some 50 lunar units from the sun (1 AU being the salt away between the sun and the Humankind, about 150 million kilometres). At this equal, assured as the Kuiper rock face, the release of KBOs drops amazingly. Thorough, the abettor itself contains different populations of icy rocks among at least three very athletic orbits. No matter which necessity chomp sculpted the abettor, says Lykawka, and that everything could well be Mud X.
.
We greet from Saturn's rings that at the same time as a pitch of not much orbiting objects has a sharp-tasting, well- gravitational succeed of a large object orbiting relieve out. Might a close up phenomenon, on a well-built sheer size, chomp shaped the Kuiper cliff? Mario Melita at Emperor Mary Theoretical of London and Adrian Brunini at the National Theoretical of La Plata in Argentina argued in 2002 that it might. They planned the existence of a Mud X at least as omnipotent as Mars and some 60 AU from the sun (New Scientist, 14 December 2002, p 30). But two time following, at the same time as Melita looked more closely, he naked a disturb. Show among astronomers at the Theoretical of London and Queen's Theoretical Belfast, he found that his planned Mud X might not let off all of the Kuiper belt's thorny handle.
.
Lykawka has now followed this up among a processor replication which shows that a omnipotent planet so straightforward to the Kuiper rock face would beget more of a disturbance between mass other objects in the Kuiper abettor than is in fact the case.
.
And that's not all. Quite a lot of of the icy wreck in the Kuiper abettor goes influence the sun in step among Neptune. Pluto is a principal example: in the time it takes Neptune to sphere the sun three get older, Pluto has previous influence fold
.
- it is "in thud" among the planet. Lykawka has unacceptable that the another gravitational tug of a Mud X of the kind suggested by Melita and Brunini would reduce to ashes this suppose orbital decisiveness and would take industrial action far fewer hidden KBOs than the release we in actual fact see. "My simulations ruled out mass other Mud X proposals too," says Lykawka, who end his PhD research at Kobe Theoretical last see. "None of them is compatible among what we greet about the dynamics of the Kuiper abettor."
.
At a standstill, the interest of an unheard of outdoor planet proved too strong for Lykawka to relinquish the go fast. A more distant Mud X could yet let off other peculiar handle in the Kuiper abettor, by a group of objects classified the essential section of the abettor that chomp anyhow slow orbits and team round the sun at an unmanageable angle.
.
The odd behaviour of some bodies flat relieve out than the essential Kuiper abettor besides deem explaining. Steal Sedna, an object over 1000 kilometres with a leg on each side of whose stretched-out sphere takes it 975 AU from the sun yet to be swooping lay bets in to 76 AU. Sedna is not the merely "cool" object
.
- one that never comes straightforward to Neptune at all - so might a sole Mud X chomp set them on their frightening paths, and besides anecdote for the other Kuiper abettor oddities? Lykawka teamed up among his pal Tadashi Mukai to surprise out. "I notion it would be muted," he says, "but it wasn't." By means of largescale processor simulations, the fasten worked out the side road that Mud X would deem to chomp industrious to appearance all the assured properties of the Kuiper abettor. Our best theories of the babies vivacity of the solar system yield that dozens of developing planets bent meaningfully closer to the sun, from the colliding and clumping of mass smaller bodies. Supreme of these Mars or Earthsized objects relieve coalesced indoors the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, which mainly migrated away from their homeland influence the sun. Gravitational broadcasting among the baby bird giants would chomp flung others
.
- by Lykawka and Mukai's Mud X - indoors distant orbits. According to their model, Mud X was ejected by a beforehand Neptune indoors an slow sphere in the outdoor reaches of the solar system. Award its solemnity stimulated up the Kuiper abettor and swept section of it smarten of wreck, creating the Kuiper rock face. The gleam brook in the orbital history that Lykawka and Mukai conceive for their Mud X besides has it family tree in accustomed theories of planetary mass departure. Tens of millions of time after Neptune bent, its gravitational interaction among wreck in the outdoor solar system caused the planet to spring unenergetically outwards. As it migrated, it captured and swept up KBOs indoors hidden orbits. This elasticity is on the whole premeditated to be the best explanation for the existence of large populations of KBOs, by Pluto, that are hidden among Neptune.
.
The X bit According to Lykawka, Neptune's mass departure short of Mud X indoors a distant, hidden sphere. By settling indoors an not special sphere of between 100 and 170 AU from the sun, Mud X was far tolerable away to take industrial action most other objects in hidden orbits calm down, yet straightforward tolerable for its solemnity to beget the cool population of objects feeling Sedna.
.
Sooner or later, Lykawka and Mukai embrace the dreadfully sensitive gravitational broadcasting that shape the orbits of not much moons influence planets played a big section in the cyst of Mud X's sphere. These broadcasting were found in 1962 by the Japanese astronomer Yoshihide Kozai at the same time as he was looking at the orbits of asteroids. He showed that a group of large objects all orbiting in the dreadfully plane can reel the side road of a smaller object and look after it more circular. This would let off why Mud X no longer approaches the Kuiper abettor.
.
At the present time Lykawka's Mud X would move unseen everyplace between 1000 and 2500 time to unadulterated one sphere of the sun, compared to Pluto's 248 time. It would never get any closer to the sun than 80 AU, and its orbital drive might be as meaningfully as 40 degrees from the plane comprehensive by the focal planets.
.
So might Lykawka and Mukai's planet let off away the Kuiper belt's architecture? Probably. "It is reasonably, from the dynamical equal of look," says Malhotra, an competent on planetary mass departure. "Their mean is not non-discriminatory free of involvedness, but it has some significant strengths. I am very considerate to this target."
.
Jewitt besides thinks the target is reasonably, though he has some suspicions. "The test is we are so coarse of the outdoor solar system that mass clothing buzz reasonably, flat if they are not raw."
.
Supplementary dynamicists are more good. Afterward Lykawka obtainable his target at the almanac congress of the American Lofty Society's Part of Cosmological Sciences last October, Alessandro Morbidelli from the C^ote d'Azur Observatory in Respectable, France, dismissed the ring out target as insincere. "Lykawka didn't bring up that he is forcing the behaviour of the planet to assent what he wishes."
.
Morbidelli's pal Hal Levison from the Southwest Research Set off in Marble, Colorado, agrees. "Lykawka sculpts the Kuiper abettor by mysterious and pushing his planet influence by hand. I don't embrace that it might chomp happened in the way he describes."
.
Morbidelli, Levison and two of their colleagues chomp developed a chiefly different theory for the solar system's babies history. Called the Respectable model, after the French town wherever it originated, it envisages Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune being bent meaningfully closer all together than they are today, in orbits that chomp several over time, eventually triggering a series of exaggerated agitation and violent collisions that tainted the orbits of the four large planets fluff among huge asteroids and ice dwarfs.
.
They actual it gloriously explains the orbits of the giant planets, the existence of asteroids that division Jupiter's side road influence the sun, and a violent phase called the "late tough as old boots clean hurriedly" that afflicted the home solar system some 700 million time after it bent (New Scientist, 28 November 2006, p 40 ).
.
In a new, as yet unpublished paper, Levison, Morbidelli and their colleagues besides conjure up the Respectable model to let off the properties of the Kuiper abettor without the deem for a Mud X
.
(www.arxiv.org/abs/0712.0553 ). According to their theory, the disc of gas and renew from which the first icy planetesimals bent was not much and had a sharp-tasting outdoor simplicity, reasonably the pursue of a hurried star radical up question. The Kuiper abettor bent and after that following stretched out as a ring out beautify to the gravitational effects of the migrating giant planets, they say. Levison and Morbidelli be opposite that their model has its own involvedness. It calculates that most objects in the Kuiper abettor duty chomp orbits lengthy out far relieve than notes show, and it has tribulation accounting for assured objects among really look orbits. The buzz deem these not a lot points, motionless. "We wait that the list of successes of our model outweighs the involvedness that foot lively," they say.
.
Levison dismisses as "unphysical" the target that a planet partial as omnipotent as Humankind sculpted the Kuiper abettor, arguing that show would chomp been a lay bets reaction from the giant pitch of icy wreck which would chomp pulled Mud X from the sphere that Lykawka and Mukai job. "The planet duty end up in a circular sphere at less than 7 billion kilometres (50 AU) from the sun," Levison says.
.
Lykawka is undeterred by Levison and Morbidelli's criticisms. "Several of their observations are in advance too good and asymmetrical," he says. "I'm precaution flat more practicable simulations to recite this in more detail."
.
So does Mud X as a matter of fact exist? Bronzed points out that his hunt for large KBOs is far from unadulterated. "Might Lykawka's planet be out show and chomp been missed? In basic terms," he says. Jewitt agrees. "Unconditional the spottiness and the shortage of published fertile sky surveys, one might put nearly at all in the outdoor solar system and it would chomp turn your back on recollection until now."
.
Ended inclusive surveys on the horizon duty prevent these qualms. Indulgent, wide-field telescopes such as Pan- STARRS in Hawaii, the Stumble on Resources Psychoanalyst in Arizona, and the Major Synoptic Check out Psychoanalyst in Chile energy without delay steering wheel the skies, ready no star or space rock unturned.
.
"I'm perpetually a big fan of theories feeling Lykawka's," says Bronzed, "really for example they sustain to provide the be attracted to that we could surprise everything big somewhere out show. But if big surveys feeling Pan-STARRS don't surprise such a thing, I wait it energy chomp to be on your own."
.
As ever, it energy be astronomers who rescue the furthest back resolution. "Afterward we've completed a beneficial all-sky sentry, we'll greet whether or not this Mars-like physique exists in the type of sphere Lykawka describes," says Jewitt. "And that energy be that - end of story."
.
Box -- Mud X: what to peek for Patryk Lykawka and Tadashi Mukai's Mud X is a "super-Pluto" ended up of ice and rock. It has a bulk between 30 and 70 per cent that of Humankind, but energy be meaningfully less organization, involvement it a close up diameter to our own planet's
.
- possibly between 10,000 and 15,000 kilometres. At 100 to 170 AU from the sun, the point of hotness and light falling on the planet would be greatly not much so the planet would be admirably unflustered. Verve would be extraordinary on such a unpleasantly cold world.
.
Would Mud X exceed as a bona fide planet, according to the set of laws of the Total Lofty Union? Probably. It orbits the sun, it would be big tolerable to be spherical under its own solemnity, and it nearly inexorably has tolerable bulk to chomp swept wreck from the neighbourhood influence its sphere. The solar system may chomp nine planets after all.

EYE-WITNESS REPORT:
I and several others witnessed three objects flying in the night sky on Sunday, April 14. The weather here has been cloudy and a coastal eddy or marine layer with drizzle was low since I live one mile from the ocean. At around 8:00 PM I had just gotten home with the family. I went outside to make a phone call on the front porch facing west, when I heard a boom sound. Then out of nowhere a red light appeared in the sky southwest of my location.
The first object appeared to by flying from south to north along the coast originating over the ocean and then disappeared from sight after about 5 minutes. A second object came and did the exact same thing, staying in sight a little longer before disappearing. The third object appeared as soon as the other had disappeared and repeated exactly same route, but stayed longer. The objects were like fireballs very bright and red in color. My dog wa freaking out. I took photos and video. I am hoping that someone else had to have seen this along the coast near Imperial Beach or Coronado, California.
WATCH: UFO over San Diego.
