UFOs seen near Soyuz while docking with the I.S.S

# data[].attributes.body
This is a video capturing a UFO passing by the Soyuz as it was preparing to dock with the International Space Station.  This chilling video shows the UFO performing a wave like motion back and forth as it passed by the Soyuz, while the voices on the intercom failed to acknowledge the UFO’s presence.  Looking closely, one can also identify many individual moving “lights” in the background.

It’s difficult to discredit an actual NASA video stream because it’s highly unlikely that it’s been altered.  The lights in the background can’t be stars because of the speed at which they zip by, and the massive “donut” shaped UFO moves sporadically and even slows down before leaving the frame.  The “donut” shaped UFO image may have been caused by lens flare on the camera if the sun was present in the shot.  The flying lights in the background may have been some type of debris passing by, but that seems highly unlikely based on the speed at which they were moving.  I believe this video to be very compelling evidence of UFO existence because the images cannot be readily explained.

During one of the Apollo missions, as the lunar module was separated on the trip back to earth, the module crashed near a lunar seismometer.  The seismometer detected the moon vibrating for an unfathomably long time, as if it was “ringing like a bell”.  Scientists concluded that the only possible way this can happen is if the moon itself was hollow with a metal exterior.  This also explains why the many craters on the lunar surface appear to be shallow and concave.

This information is quite difficult to label as fraudulent because the evidence is very compelling.  The only limitation I can identify is the seismometer itself.  If the seismometer was faulty then the evidence must be discredited.  Further experiments should be conducted on the lunar surface to confirm if this statement is in fact accurate.

Michael Shermer on How to Fake UFO Photographs

# data[].attributes.body
This is a video of Michael Shermer creating hoax UFO pictures (with the help of children) and testing weather ordinary people and an expert can identify if they are fake.  The pictures were created by gluing household items together and dangling them from a string over the backdrop of a town.  The pictures were taken with low resolution cameras to give it a grainy texture and to hide minor details that would give them away (attached strings).  Surprisingly, the regular public audience and the expert failed to identify the pictures and being fraudulent, even with the use of advanced computer technology.

A couple of reasons for belief include patternicity, ideology.  Patternicity is evident in the way people connected the shape of these items to flying saucers, such as something round and flat being thrown like a Frisbee resembling a flying saucer.  When Michael explained to the audience that these pictures were hoaxes, a couple of individuals became somewhat defensive and admitting to still believing in UFOs.  This is an example of Ideology because these individuals still believed even though their beliefs were proven wrong.

Michael Shermer on How to Fake UFO Photographs

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The best evidence that UFOs represent spacecraft from other worlds consists of grainy photographs, blurry videos, and anecdotes about things that go bump in the night. In this episode Michael Shermer shows how easy it is to fake UFO photographs, enlisting the help of children and disposable cameras to create convincing photographic evidence that even fooled experts!

The Drake Equation: Estimating the odds of finding ET

# data[].attributes.body
N = R* • fp • ne • fl • fi • fc • L

The drake equation is an equation used to determine the number of communicating civilizations (N) in the Milky Way Galaxy.  This equation takes into account the rate of formation of stars suitable for the development of intelligent life (R), the fraction of those stars with planetary systems (fp), the number of planets per solar system with an environment suitable for life (ne), the fraction of suitable planets on which life actually appears (fl), the fraction of which intelligent life emerges (fi), the fraction of civilizations that releases signals of their existence into space (fc), and the length of time these civilizations release signals into space (L).

Based on this equation and the values computed for our galaxy alone, the results showed that the probability of intelligent alien live is a resounding %100.  The greatest limitation of the Drake equation is a lack of firm numbers to input into the equation.  Currently there is no way to accurately determine each variable without some advancements in space technology.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Besides illuminating the factors involved in such a search, the Drake Equation is a simple, effective tool for stimulating intellectual curiosity about the universe around us, for helping us to understand that life as we know it is the end product of a natural, cosmic evolution, and for making us realize how much we are a part of that universe.

An interview with David Jacobs on “The Threat”

# data[].attributes.body
This article is based on an interview with David Jacobs about a secret alien abduction.  David claims aliens have been abducting women and using their eggs to breed a superior alien/human hybrid race which will someday take over society.  He claims they will use their superior intellect to oppress mankind and prevent independent behaviour or thought.

The reason David believes in this threat may be due to agenticity and emotional connections. David believes aliens are a form of higher authority with a secret agenda of taking over society.  Throughout the interview David seems quite stressed and upset which leads me to believe there is an emotional connection to why he believes this threat.

The woman abducted by aliens 'more times than she can count' during her lifetime

The woman abducted by aliens 'more times than she can count' during her lifetime    

# data[].attributes.body
This is the story of 67-year-old Hillary Porter who claims to have been abducted by aliens all of her life.  Ever since she was five she has been continuously abducted and returned with bruises and bloody scars.  She has recently sought help from the British Earth and Aerial Mysteries Society (BEAMS) where she met her partner Ken, who fully supports her.

I believe Hillary may have a faulty perception to what has actually happened to her.  She may have undergone a traumatic experience which has alter or damage her memory of the event and her mind is using alien abduction as a coping mechanism to deal with the trauma.  In all instances there were no witnesses to see the abduction or abductors which makes her claims hard to believe.

Hilary Porter knows most people won't believe what she says and some will dismiss her as a nutter, even though she seems entirely normal and her many responsible jobs include work for the Ministry of Defence .

"I'm a sane, together person," she says.

It's only when 67-year-old Hilary talks about aliens that people start to doubt her.

Specifically, when she says she has been abducted by creatures from other worlds more times than she can count.

"I have been an alien abductee all my life," she says with a sigh as she shows me into a living room where two ornamental spaceships sit on the mantelpiece.

"I didn't choose this life. I didn't ask for any of this, but it has been happening for as long as I can remember."

Hilary will be among more than 100 people at a national conference this month organised by the Anomalous Mind Management, Abductee, Contactee, Helpline Project (Ammach for short).

She will share stories and compare notes with others who claim similar experiences.

The first close encounter she recalls came when she was five and playing in the long grass in a field behind her home.

She says: "Suddenly there was a reptilian alien in front of me.

"It had scaly skin, black holes on the nose and a little mouth.

"It wasn't tall - maybe 5ft, but very strong. It grabbed my arms and pulled me towards a disc in a depression in the field.

"It dragged me underneath into a lift and the door slid closed.

"The next thing I knew I was in a room with consoles and coloured lights and little figures moving around.

"I was stripped and thrown on to some sort of bed.

"They took a really horrible, sharp instrument and they were pressing it right the way up my body while I was screaming. I can't remember anything after that."

She believes this was not the first time because when she was two she kept disappearing from a secure back garden and her frantic mother would find her half a mile away.

Hilary has no memory of those disappearances, but rattles off one close encounter after another from her adult life.

She is sure she was abducted while driving near Cardiff in the 1970s and again by a hexagonal spacecraft while hanging out bunting at a charity event.

She tells me an alien broke into a top-secret research laboratory at a local Marconi plant while she worked there in 1974.

She remembers two orbs of light flying past her kitchen window near the M3 in Farnborough, Hants, and when she went to work next day sections of the building were cordoned off and a security guard who had witnessed something was taken away for treatment and never seen again.

Her experiences have common threads.

Afterwards she suffers migraines and feels very ill. Sometimes she wakes up with fresh scars or bruises. Or there are bloody marks or stains on her clothes or bedsheets.

"I've got a metal implant in my ear too," she says.

"The doctor said it was wax but I can feel it. My partner Ken has a monitor that detects bugging devices.

"He puts it near my ear and it goes ding-ding-ding."

Hilary will tell the full Marconi story for the first time at the Ammach gathering.

"Of course there are sceptics, people who laugh at us, but that doesn't bother us," she tells me.

"Just because they haven't seen it with their own eyes doesn't mean it isn't true.

"We've had people from right across the spectrum tell us about their experiences, from university graduates to businessmen.

"They can't all be just stupid."

Hilary used to work as draftsman and artist for the MoD and decided to record her encounters by drawing them.

One of her pictures shows her as a little girl being dragged towards the spaceship.

Another sketched in 1980 shows a shadowy figure standing just outside her window.

She recalls: "I had just put my daughter Sally to bed and came downstairs. Then I spotted a huge figure by the window. I froze.

"After a few moments he raised his hand and I did the same.

"After that I wasn't quite so frightened. I thought he wasn't going to hurt me.

"Then he glided to the back of the garden. He moved so fast. Woosh. Then he shot sideways, paused for several seconds, and was gone."

For years she suffered alone until a "crisis abduction" in 1994 when she says she was shown flashbacks of previous encounters.

Pushed to the brink, she started looking for other people with similar stories.

That's when she met partner Ken, who runs the British Earth and Aerial Mysteries Society (BEAMS).

She met more abductees and as someone who can recall many experiences, she began counselling them.

"Finding someone else who understood me was so important," she says.

"You know you're not off your trolley."

So who are these aliens?

Ken says: "There are greys, the ones everyone recognises, but they are just servants. The reptilians are higher beings, then there is a humanoid type.

"But there is something above them, cowled figures. You can't look at them.

"Their eyes shine and when they look at you they blast a message into your mind.

"They tend to take females more for their eggs and genetic material for breeding purposes.

"We believe they are making a cross between aliens and humans."

Hilary says her abductions have grown less frequent, but strange phenomena still plague the area around her home, which has spectacular views over the Hampshire skyline.

She says she's seen hovering triangular shapes and bright lights flying in formation which she has photographed.

She dismisses the idea that it could be military planes from Farnborough airbase, insisting they look and sound different.

Hilary is now planning to work with Ammach founder Joanne Summerscales on a self-help manual for abductees.

Since founding her group in 2011 Joanne has been contacted by 1,500 people who believe they have been abducted.

Several claim to have implants like Hilary.

"I keep hearing the same things time and again but these people have never met," says Joanne.

"I think there are definitely aliens on our planet."

Hilary Porter and Joanne Summerscales are among the speakers at the Ammach conference at the White Rock Theatre in Hastings on May 31.
