SHOW TRANSCRIPT:
There was a story that made the international news that certainly did not make the front page in the United States. It certainly ste the wheels in motion for an investigation that still has come up with no explanation.
It was reported by news organizations in Australia, Israel, India, Ukraine and Russia.
Apparently, Russian air defenses reportedly shot down a UFO in the Rostov Oblast near the Ukrainian border. Local media outlets and Telegram channels sharing videos of a small object in the sky exploding.
The news was first shared by Rostov Oblast Governor Vasily Golubev on Telegram, who claimed that it was spotted above the village of Sultan Sala.
His official statement on the matter was undefinedI urge everyone to remain calm. To ensure security, all forces and means are involved. The sky is covered with anti-aircraft defenses,undefined Golubev said, according to local news outlet Privet Rostov, though he didnundefinedt explain what the UFO was, other than that it was shaped like a ball.
While many observers say that the event seemed other worldy, it was quickly dismissed by some leaders as a drone.
Russian State Duma lawmaker Anatoly Wasserman claimed on Telegram that Ukrainian forces, which he referred to as undefinedKyiv terrorists,undefined are choosing to fire indiscriminately at Russian civilians for the sake of causing terror, according to local outlet Rostov Gazeta.
But despite the war machines and the claims of authorities, many residents of the Rostov Oblast werenundefinedt exactly satisfied with this explanation.
As reported by the Rostov Gazeta, alternative claims by locals included the appearance of the Moon being shot down while others were recounting another UFO incident that happened in 2007.
Back in 2007, some fishermen along the Sea of Azov managed to catch a strange, seemingly unidentified 100 kg. life form after a strong storm. They had filmed this strange squeaking creature with a cellphone camera and assumed it was an alien of some sort.
But before anyone could verify these claims, the Russian fishermen decided to eat this supposed alien, with one of them saying it was the best food he ever had.
This story of course sounds like a fish story- but another compelling UFO story out Of Ukraine was reported at the beginning of the war.
The Jerusalem Post and CBN reported that a UFO is said to have saved Ukrainian troops from Russian tanks in a miracle lightning attack.
Lytvynenko said one man shared with him a story of his son who’s serving in the Ukrainian army. He said the man told him on one dark night, the soldiers were holding their positions and discovered there were a lot of Russian Federation tanks and other mobile units coming directly at them. It appeared the soldiers would have trouble defending themselves.
The son picked up his phone and called his father.
“He said, ‘Dad, you have to pray right now. We’re in a situation,” Lytvynenko said.
So the father called other members of their church and asked them to start praying. Later, the son called his father back.
“He said, ‘There’s some miracle that happened. It looked like an attack (on the Russians) from a spaceship. There was some kind of lightning shooting from the sky,’” In the morning, they (the Ukrainian troops) discovered the Russian tanks and other mobile units had been destroyed.
If this story is just propaganda — it has been avoided by the mainstream media.
In fact, since this incident, there have been reports of UFO sightings all over Ukraine and Russia.
The former director general of the Russian Roscosmos Space Agency believes that aliens are real and that they study us “as bacteria”.
According to Dmitry Rogozin, advanced intelligent beings could well be out there – and they may well already be analyzing life on Earth.
In an interview with state-owned news outlet Russia 24 last June, Rogozin said he believed that they could be looking at us while we have no idea they’re there.
Rogozin, who has also claimed that Russian scientists are currently studying UFO encounters, said: “If we talk about specific facts that maybe, in the history of humanity on Earth, there have been the so-called UFOs that NASA talks about, then I want to say that these studies were and are being done at our Academy of Sciences.
undefinedThe data is being collected and verified”.
Now granted during a war there might be experimental or unknown aircraft that cannot be identified undefined and so this is the definition of UFO. While we all suspect that whenever the term UFO is used people are demanding evidence of aliens piloting them.
But in truth, that part of the story is seriously being investigated by the United States Government and a new UFO report or UAP report has been filed recently and it is now claiming that there are more reports that def any logical explanation.
The U.S. intelligence community said Thursday that the number of UFO reports involving U.S. military personnel is increasing, undefinedenabling a greater awareness of the airspace and increased opportunity to resolveundefined what is actually being reported.
Roughly half of the new incidents reported in the report had terrestrial explanations, the report said.
The increase in reporting is partially attributed to the continuing effort to destigmatize the reporting of such incidents and focus on the potential safety risks they could pose to U.S. personnel.
The report released Thursday by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said that since its first June 2021 unclassified report on what is now called Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs), it is now aware of 510 such reports.
That is significantly more than the 144 incidents reviewed in the initial report, only one of which could be explained.
The new report said the Pentagonundefineds new office looking at UAP reports has looked at 366 new reported incidents and initially determined that about half of them have undefinedunremarkable characteristics.undefined
Twenty-six are being attributed to drones, 163 are characterized as balloon or balloon-like entities, and six are attributed to clutter.
The report says these initial assessments do undefinednot mean positively resolved or unidentifiedundefined but will aid investigators in trying to determine how to explain undefinedthe remaining 171 uncharacterized and unattributed UAP reportsundefined some of which undefinedappear to have demonstrated unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities, and require further analysis.undefined
The report indicates the increased number of UAP reports is undefinedpartially due to a concentrated effort to destigmatize the topic of UAP and instead recognize the potential risks that it poses as both a safety of flight hazard and potential adversarial activity.undefined
The long-awaited report was originally expected to be released by last Oct. 31, the deadline set in the congressional legislation mandating annual updates to the first-ever unclassified U.S. intelligence report.
It also said that the increased cooperation between the Pentagon, the U.S. intelligence community and other federal agencies was providing additional data that could be used to resolve a number of the incidents.
The report includes all new incidents of what are now called Unidentified Anomalous or aerial Phenomena (UAPs), the new term for UFOs, that includes all new UAP incidents over the past year and any previously unreported incidents.
At a congressional hearing earlier this year, Pentagon officials had said the number of UAP incidents under investigation had risen to more than 400.
Even though many have voluntarily stressed that there is no sign of alien crashes or aliens involved ARRO Director Sean Kirkpatrick said his office was taking a sober approach to the review and would not rule out any possibility.
He said undefinedAs a physicist, I have to adhere to the scientific method and I will follow that data and science wherever it goes.undefined
NASA also announced that there are 16 people who would serve on a new panel tasked with studying UAPs. Their report, based on unclassified information, is slated to be released in mid-2023.
There also were many independent sightings of strange activity in the skies undefined not just UFO sightings but anomalous space activity as well.
Two days ago while all of the planes were ground stopped due to what authorities say was a glitch in the Notice To Air Missions system NASAundefineds Planetary Defense Coordination Office reported that Asteroid 2021 TL was edging closer to earth and was going to give us a cosmic close shave. The asteroid was 230 feet wide about the size of an aircraft.
We reported recently that as of December 27th, the HAARP Project has been currently operating to scan the skies for Asteroids,
The High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) is actually the most important facility used to generate extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic radiation in the ionosphere. In order to produce this ELF radiation the HAARP transmitter radiates a strong beam of high-frequency (HF) waves modulated at ELF.
This HF heating modulates the electron temperature in the D region ionosphere and leads to modulated conductivity and a time-varying current which then radiates at the modulation frequency.
Recently, the HAARP HF transmitter operated with 3.6GW of effective radiated power modulated at a frequency of 2.5Hz.
An experiment to bounce a radio signal off an asteroid happened on December 27th will it was a test for probing a larger asteroid that in 2029 will pass closer to Earth than the many geostationary satellites that orbit our planet.
Knowing more about an asteroid’s interior, especially of an asteroid large enough to cause major damage on Earth, is important for determining how to defend against it.
There has also been a lot of excitement about a green comet that can now be seen with the naked eye in the heavens above us.
The comet is called C/2022 E3 (ZTF) after the Zwicky Transient Facility, which first spotted it passing Jupiter in March last year.
After traveling from the icy reaches of our Solar System it came closest to the Sun yesterday. It will pass closest to the earth on February 5th.
It will be easy to spot with a good pair of binoculars and likely even with the naked eye, provided the sky is not too illuminated by city lights or the Moon.
Last year we got to see Comet NEOWISE undefined but this one is a lot smaller. Hale–Bopp, which swept by in 1997 had a potentially life-ending diameter of around 60 kilometers.
Hale Bopp of course was the infamous comet that got the attention of a UFO Cult called Heavenundefineds Gate where the leader of the group Marshall Applewhite and his 39 followers committed suicide claiming that it was being followed by an alien spaceship and that they had to shed their human forms to join loved ones on the comet.
While the comet will be brightest as it passes Earth in early February, a fuller moon could make spotting it difficult.
The cometundefineds next visit to the inner Solar System is expected in another 50,000 years.
Space is certainly a place of unfinished business. UFOs aren’t just in the sandbox of conspiracy theorists and sci-fi fans: NASA awards grants to reputable scientists seeking real-life ETs, and we’ve been scanning the heavens for signs of artificial signals for decades.
We are getting signals from other planets on the form of fast radio bursts of light-and other sounds being picked up on shortwave frequencies.
But in order to not look too crazy the investigations all but rule out aircraft piloted by extraterrestrial biological entities- some scientist believe that perhaps the pilots are synthetic artificial intelligence and not biological at all.
They say that they have ruled out extraterrestrial technology. Yet they then say these things have enormous speeds and do maneuvers that are impossible to replicate by our technology.
How do you interpret what these experts are responding to—the enormous speeds and maneuvers? Do they have anything from Russia or China that they can compare it to? Obviously not or they wouldnundefinedt be wasting time issuing lame reports that keep assuring us not to panic over an alien incursion- or worse and occupation.
No new technology is required here to explain recent sightings. We know how to build things, drones, and complex electronics. So do our adversaries.
So the point is the government is stalling with yet another public relations project to try and water down UFO sightings undefined dangling the cosmic carrot of undefinedWho Knows.undefined
But obviously, they are curious too and are afraid to admit that something every once and a while shakes the snow globe and we have to determine who or what is behind it all.
