An amateur video circulating in Colombia in recent days has
stirred both curiosity and skepticism. The footage, filmed at night
on the road connecting Balsillas to Neiva in the Huila department,
shows a strange figure described by the uploader as a “creature
with human features walking in an unusual manner.”
Captured from a moving vehicle, the clip quickly spread across
social media, drawing the attention of local outlets and sparking a
wave of online reactions. While some viewers dismissed it as a
digital hoax, others suggested it could be a child, a monkey, or
even someone in disguise.
In Colombia, however, such unexplained sightings often revive
older narratives. Several commentators pointed to the nahual (or
nagual), a shapeshifting being from indigenous folklore said to
transform into different forms. These stories, passed down through
generations, continue to fuel the imagination whenever mysterious
events occur.
The witnesses did not stop to investigate and continued along
their route. Meanwhile, the video continues to circulate without
any conclusive explanation. As is often the case, alleged
shapeshifters seem to thrive less on changing shapes than on the
ambiguity of blurry images.
Politics is usually seen as a serious business, but history
offers plenty of unusual cases where animals have been
granted—sometimes symbolically, sometimes quite officially—real
political positions. These quirky stories mix humor, local
tradition, and, at times, a subtle critique of human politics.
Stubbs, Mayor of a Town in Alaska
In 1997, the residents of Talkeetna, a small Alaskan town,
“elected” a ginger cat named Stubbs as their honorary mayor. He
held the title for nearly 20 years, becoming a tourist attraction
and achieving a level of popularity that many human politicians
could only dream of.
Bosco, Mayor of Sunol, California
In 1981, Sunol, a community in California, elected Bosco Ramos,
a Labrador-Rottweiler mix, as its mayor. Reelected in 1984, Bosco
remained in office until his death in 1994. Locals affectionately
dubbed him “the most honest mayor in America.”
Clay Henry, Mayor of a Texas Town
In the 1980s, the small Texas town of Lajitas chose a
beer-loving goat named Clay Henry as its mayor. The animal became a
local mascot, and after his death, successors—Clay Henry II and
III—kept the tradition alive.
Sweet Tart, Mayor of Omena, Michigan
In 2018, the residents of Omena, Michigan, voted a cat named
Sweet Tart into office. The election was part of a lighthearted
tradition in which local animals routinely take up political posts,
bringing a mix of civic pride and humor.
Pigasus, Candidate for U.S. President
In 1968, the American counterculture group Yippies nominated a
pig named Pigasus for President of the United States. While his
campaign didn’t go far, Pigasus remains a legendary symbol of
political satire and protest.
These unusual elections often serve as more than just a joke.
They highlight local identity, entertain communities, and sometimes
express dissatisfaction with traditional politics. After all, when
animals take office, they’re seen as refreshingly honest,
loyal—and, unlike many humans, immune to corruption.
The year 2025 is not yet over, and the coming months could still
alter the course of history. Yet, attention has already turned to
the predictions attributed to Baba Vanga, the Bulgarian clairvoyant
who died in 1996 but whose “revelations” continue to stir both
fascination and unease.
According to experts on her legacy, 2026 promises to be
catastrophic. The seer is said to have foreseen massive natural
disasters affecting up to 8% of Earth’s landmass, along with the
official outbreak of a third world war. This conflict would bring
the United States and Russia into direct confrontation, while China
would seize Taiwan.
The ominous forecasts do not end there. Baba Vanga also
reportedly warned that artificial intelligence would surpass human
control, increasingly dominating everyday life. Finally, a dramatic
event would mark November 2026: first contact with extraterrestrial
life, manifested by the arrival of a giant spaceship.
Faced with such an apocalyptic scenario, interpreters of Baba
Vanga’s prophecies have quipped that, should these visions come
true, the only secure job left might be decoding her
predictions.
Though widely contested and unverifiable, these prophecies
reflect a persistent human need to look toward the irrational in
hopes of making sense of an uncertain world.
On August 4, 2025, a resident of the village of Andreas, in the north of the Isle of Man, reported witnessing an unusual aerial phenomenon to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC). The sighting occurred at around 8:30 p.m. local time.
According to his account, the witness was in his backyard when
he heard a strange noise, like something rapidly slicing through
the air. Looking up, he initially saw nothing—until a dark object
suddenly shot across the roof of his house, passing extremely low,
at an estimated altitude of just 60–100 feet, before speeding off
westward toward the Irish Sea.
The object was described as black, cigar-shaped (though not
perfectly so), and about the size of a small sports car, roughly
comparable to a BMW M3. The witness estimated its speed at around
500 mph (800 km/h). The entire event lasted only a few seconds but
left a deep impression:
“My heart sank. I honestly thought World War III was starting,
like it was a missile,” he wrote in his report.
One particularly striking detail: there was no sound of
combustion, engines, or drone-like buzzing—only the sharp slicing
of air and a faint high-pitched hum, similar to the constant tone
one hears when sitting inside a passenger jet.
The witness says no one he has told seems to believe him, yet he
remains convinced of what he saw and wonders whether it was some
kind of advanced military technology or something entirely
different.
Published on the NUFORC website on August 8, 2025, this report
joins the long list of unidentified aerial sightings whose origin
remains unexplained.

The possibility of a global conflict is a nightmare scenario no one wants to contemplate. However, as an exercise in geopolitical and survivalist forecasting, it's intriguing to analyze which nations would offer the best chances of survival in the event of a worldwide collapse. The key criteria for this ranking are: geographical isolation, political and social stability, food and energy self-sufficiency, low population density, and a lack of strategic military targets.
Here is our top 10 list of potential refuges in the event
of a third world war.
10. Portugal
Why:Political stability and
relative isolation in Europe.
Strengths:As one of Europe's
most peaceful countries, Portugal is situated on the western
periphery of the continent, far from potential major flashpoints
like Eastern Europe. Its climate supports viable agriculture, and
it has a long coastline for fishing.
Weaknesses:Its membership in
NATO could draw it into a conflict, and it hosts strategic military
bases.
9. Switzerland
Why:A legendary tradition of
neutrality and a culture of preparedness.
Strengths:Swiss neutrality
is deeply ingrained. The mountainous terrain is easily defensible,
and the country boasts one of the highest densities of nuclear
bunkers per capita in the world. Its decentralized political system
is a key asset.
Weaknesses:Surrounded by
major NATO and EU powers, it could become caught in conventional
European fighting.
8. Slovenia
Why:A discreet, small nation
rich in nature and water.
Strengths:With a low
population density, vast forested and mountainous areas (the Julian
Alps), and abundant freshwater resources, Slovenia offers a stable
and relatively self-sufficient haven.
Weaknesses:Membership in
NATO and the EU increases its potential risk of
involvement.
7. Bhutan
Why:Himalayan isolation and
a philosophy of self-reliance.
Strengths:Nestled in the
Himalayas, its access is naturally difficult. The country has a
very low population density and a culture deeply rooted in
environmental respect and autonomy. It has no diplomatic relations
with major nuclear powers.
Weaknesses:Geographic
proximity to potential giants in conflict, India and China. Limited
resources could be a challenge.
6. Iceland
Why:Extreme island isolation
and geothermal energy independence.
Strengths:Located in the
middle of the North Atlantic, it is remote from everything. It
produces its own food (fish) and is almost entirely self-sufficient
in energy thanks to geothermal power. A small, homogeneous
population aids social cohesion.
Weaknesses:Its strategic
position in the North Atlantic could make it relevant to naval
powers. The harsh climate limits agriculture.
5. Ireland
Why:Historical neutrality
and island isolation.
Strengths:Ireland is not a
member of any military alliance (like NATO) and has a strong
tradition of neutrality. It is an island with significant
agricultural land, allowing for potential food self-sufficiency.
Its distance from the European mainland is a buffer.
Weaknesses:Relative
proximity to the UK, a potential high-value target.
4. Canada (Rural and Northern Regions)
Why:Immense territory and
vast resources.
Strengths:Canada has one of
the lowest population densities on Earth. Its vast wilderness
areas, particularly in the Yukon, Northwest Territories, and
Nunavut, are extremely isolated. The country is rich in freshwater,
natural resources, and wildlife.
Weaknesses:Direct neighbor
to the United States, the number one target in any large-scale
attack. Major cities would be high-risk zones.
3. Australia / New Zealand
Why:Isolated continental
fortresses.
Strengths:Their primary
asset is their extreme geographical isolation. They are
continent-islands with strong food, mineral, and energy
self-sufficiency. New Zealand, in particular, is often cited as the
ultimate billionaire bunker destination due to its stability and
remoteness.
Weaknesses:Australia is a
close ally of the US (ANZUS Pact) and could be a secondary target.
Both face risks from wildfires and droughts.
2. Argentina (Patagonia)
Why:Remoteness, low
population density, and abundant resources.
Strengths:Argentina, and
especially its Patagonia region, is far from likely geopolitical
epicenters. It is a self-sufficient food and energy producer. The
vast, uninhabited spaces in the south offer an ideal
refuge.
Weaknesses:A history of some
economic and political instability, though this may matter less in
a global crisis.
1. Finland
Why:The ultimate survivalist
culture.
Strengths:Finland stands
apart due to its unique level of national preparedness. Universal
male conscription means a large portion of the population has
military survival training. The country has thousands of public
shelters and a culture of "sisu" (resilience and grit). Its vast
forests and tens of thousands of lakes provide shelter, food, and
water. Despite recent NATO membership, its immense territory and
low density make it the most prepared and resilient nation on this
list.
The Bigfoot community is mourning the loss of Dr. Don Jeffrey “Jeff” Meldrum, a full professor of anatomy and anthropology in the Department of Biological Sciences at Idaho State University, who passed away following a battle with brain cancer.
While respected for his academic work, Jeff Meldrum became
widely known for his deep interest in the Bigfoot phenomenon, a
legendary creature of North American folklore. His book
Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science brought
him considerable recognition in the field, while also sparking
debate within the scientific community.
A popular and engaging speaker, he was frequently invited to
Bigfoot conferences and appeared on numerous television programs
dedicated to the subject. Meldrum’s unique blend of scientific
rigor and open-minded curiosity earned him respect, even from
skeptics.
His passing leaves a void in the Bigfoot world, where his
thoughtful and passionate voice will be greatly missed.
British rock singer and paranormal investigator Brocarde — known for her unusual experiences with the spirit world, including dating, marrying, divorcing a ghost and even seeking a “paranormal restraining order” to stop him from haunting her — says she has had another supernatural encounter.
According to her account, she has twice seen the spirit of Lemmy
Kilmister, the legendary Motörhead frontman and bassist, at Wacken
Open Air, the renowned heavy metal festival in Germany. The site
also became a place of tribute in 2023 when Lemmy’s ashes were
scattered there.
Brocarde says that on both occasions, Lemmy appeared riding a
horse while eating a slice of pizza — a curious detail that she
later learned was fitting, as former Motörhead guitarist Phil
Campbell told her Lemmy loved pizza, as long as it had no
mushrooms.
She added that Lemmy’s ghost made no propositions or offers,
though she admitted she wouldn’t have minded a bit of career advice
from him.

In a recent interview, attorney Daniel Sheehan, known for his advocacy of UFO disclosure, made serious allegations against the U.S. Department of Defense and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
According to Sheehan, these institutions committed perjury by
denying the existence of secret programs linked to the recovery of
non-human technology. “They have lied, concealing the fact that
they recovered a non-human origin extraterrestrial spacecraft and
bodies that DNA testing has confirmed to be non-human,” he
stated.
Sheehan further claimed that U.S. authorities have possessed
such craft for some time and established a back-engineering program
in an attempt to replicate the technology. He asserted that some of
these reconstructed vehicles are currently being tested and flown
by U.S. Air Force personnel under a highly classified program.
The attorney believes that more information could surface soon
with the introduction of the Bipartisan UAP Disclosure Act,
championed by Congressman Eric Burlison. The measure, submitted as
an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization
Act (NDAA), seeks greater transparency on unidentified anomalous
phenomena.
While Sheehan’s statements remain allegations, they come amid
growing curiosity and skepticism in Congress, where several
lawmakers are pressing for wider access to classified documents on
the subject.
Britain’s first resident Buddhist lama, who is currently leading a project to establish a new Buddhist centre in the Scottish Highlands, has suggested that the legendary Loch Ness monster could be understood as a naga—a water deity revered in Buddhist tradition. According to remarks reported by The Scotsman, the creature should be seen not as a threat but as a protective spirit associated with prosperity.
Loch Ness, a vast freshwater lake in the Highlands, has been
linked for nearly a century with the legend of a mysterious animal,
popularly known as “Nessie.” Modern references to the creature date
back to 1933, and belief in its existence gained worldwide
attention the following year, when a photograph taken by Robert
Kenneth Wilson appeared to show a figure rising from the water.
Since then, the Loch Ness monster has become a symbol of
Scottish folklore, sustaining both popular imagination and local
tourism. However, evidence of its existence remains highly
disputed. Reports are anecdotal, and the limited photographic and
sonar material available is widely considered inconclusive by the
scientific community.
The lama’s spiritual interpretation offers a new perspective on
the legend. Rather than a zoological enigma, the Loch Ness monster
may be viewed as a manifestation of a sacred presence, echoing an
ancient tradition in which lakes and rivers are believed to be
inhabited by benevolent deities.
On a recent podcast, Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna, who chairs the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, shared a series of experiences and inquiries related to unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP).
Among the incidents she described was one at Eglin Air Force
Base, where numerous pilots reportedly witnessed UAPs. Another case
allegedly took place at Vandenberg Space Force Base, where several
individuals, including a pilot, claimed to have seen a red
cube-shaped object larger than a football field.
Luna also recounted her own experience while serving at the
Portland Air National Guard Base. According to her, there was an
“airspace incursion” which she attempted to investigate, only to be
told by pilots: “we can’t really talk about it,” as they feared
being “taken off flight status.”
The congresswoman further asserted that she has seen evidence of
technology purportedly created by “interdimensional beings” capable
of moving “outside of time and space.” She added that some biblical
texts may have been removed because they touched on similar
subjects.
Regardless of political opinion about her, Luna’s statements
draw attention to the ongoing debate on disclosure, as unidentified
aerial phenomena continue to intrigue the public and raise
questions within both military and civilian circles.
The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO) has received an unusual report from Macon County, Georgia. A couple driving from Sapphire Valley to Highlands claim to have encountered a large, mysterious creature.
According to their account, the car in front of them came to an
abrupt stop, revealing the reason: “a large black figure with long
arms and dark hair” that appeared suddenly on the road. The
creature then leapt easily over the guardrail before vanishing from
sight. The first vehicle quickly drove away, preventing the
witnesses from comparing experiences.
A BFRO investigator noted that the area where North
Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia converge has long
been known as a hotspot for similar reports. After interviewing the
couple, he found them credible and concluded that the creature
“could only have been a sasquatch.”
In his words, this region remains a true “sweet spot for
sasquatch sightings”—an alliteration that may well qualify
as the phrase of the week.
American researcher Jesse Michels, known for his podcast on unexplained phenomena, recently stated that he traveled to Peru to closely examine the so-called “three-fingered mummies” discovered near Nazca. These remains, presented by some as evidence of extraterrestrial life, continue to fuel controversy.
Michels remains cautious: he says he found no clear indication
that the mummies are alien in origin. However, he suggests an
alternative hypothesis. According to him, the mummies could
represent “a previously unknown subterranean species.” This idea is
based on the work of a bioinformatics expert who analyzed publicly
available DNA samples from some of the remains. The results
revealed a genetic mutation associated with ectrodactyly, a
congenital condition that causes deformities of fingers and
toes.
A commonly cited example is a community in northern Zimbabwe,
where many inhabitants are born with what is known as “ostrich foot
syndrome”: their feet have only two large toes, forming a V-shaped
structure.
To further investigate, Jesse Michels is working with
Colossal Biosciences, a biotechnology company best
known for its ambitious projects to bring back extinct species such
as the Tasmanian tiger, the woolly mammoth, and the dodo. The firm
plans to conduct deeper genetic studies on additional samples from
the Nazca mummies.
Skeptics, however, point out that previous investigations
concluded these “creatures” are little more than dolls assembled
from human and animal remains. Yet if Colossal were to confirm a
unique genetic heritage — or even attempt to revive such beings —
the debate surrounding the three-fingered mummies could enter
uncharted territory, evoking a real-life “Jurassic Park.”
The interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS is still several months away from its closest approach to Earth in November 2025, but it has already become the center of a growing debate. While most astronomers consider it a typical interstellar comet, a minority — including Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb — believe it could be something far more extraordinary: alien technology in disguise, and possibly even hostile.
In a non-peer-reviewed paper, Loeb and two
collaborators argue that 3I/ATLAS's unusual
trajectory suggests it might not be natural at all. They
propose it could be an extraterrestrial spacecraft, or at least an
object with artificial origins.
However, this hypothesis is strongly disputed by
mainstream experts. One of them, Samantha
Lawler, an astronomer at the University of Regina in
Canada who specializes in solar system dynamics, remains skeptical.
“All evidence points to this being an ordinary comet that was
ejected from another solar system, just as countless billions of
comets have been ejected from our own,” she says.
But Loeb isn’t stopping there. Another non-peer-reviewed
study he supports outlines an ambitious plan:
redirecting NASA’s Juno spacecraft, currently
orbiting Jupiter, to intercept 3I/ATLAS. According to the proposal,
applying a velocity change of 2.675 km/s to Juno
on September 14, 2025 would allow it to rendezvous
with the interstellar object.
Juno, which was designed to study Jupiter, carries a suite of
sophisticated instruments — including a near-infrared
spectrometer, magnetometer,
microwave radiometer, UV
spectrograph, and a visible light camera
— that could, in theory, analyze 3I/ATLAS up close
and perhaps settle the debate once and for all.
But redirecting Juno would be no small feat. Such a maneuver
would come with significant technical and budgetary
challenges, not to mention the risk of compromising Juno’s
ongoing science mission at Jupiter. So far, NASA has not
commented on any intention to pursue the plan.
As the debate continues, one question lingers: If this
really is a rare opportunity to examine an interstellar object up
close — and maybe more — what are we waiting for?

A recently revisited inscription carved into the rock face at Serabit el-Khadim in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula is stirring controversy among biblical archaeologists. Believed to be around 3,800 years old, the text is written in Proto-Sinaitic script—the earliest known alphabet—and is located near a site known as Sinai 357 in the area called Mine L, an ancient turquoise mining zone.
Independent researcher Michael Bar-Ron has
spent eight years analyzing high-resolution images and 3D scans of
the inscription. He now claims that the text reads “zot
miMoshe”, Hebrew for “This is from
Moses.” If true, Bar-Ron argues, this would constitute
direct archaeological evidence of the historical figure Moses, long
debated by scholars and theologians alike.
The site dates back to the reign of Pharaoh Amenemhat
III, a ruler of Egypt’s Middle Kingdom. Some scholars have
proposed that Amenemhat III could have been the Pharaoh referenced
in the biblical Book of Exodus—the one who pursued the Hebrews
during their escape from Egypt. Supporting this theory are other
inscriptions found at the same location, which include references
to slavery, overseers, violent purges, and workers
fleeing, echoing elements of the Exodus narrative.
Still, Bar-Ron’s interpretation is far from universally
accepted. Dr. Thomas Schneider, an Egyptologist
and professor at the University of British Columbia, cautions
against drawing conclusions from such limited and uncertain data.
He criticizes what he calls “arbitrary” letter
identifications, warning that such speculative readings
risk distorting the historical record. “Proto-Sinaitic characters
are notoriously difficult to decipher,” Schneider said, adding that
without consensus and peer-reviewed confirmation, such claims
remain unproven and misleading.
The debate touches on a broader issue in biblical archaeology:
the tension between faith-based interpretations and evidence-based
scholarship. While some view the inscription as a tantalizing clue
worthy of further investigation, others urge restraint and
scientific rigor.
For now, the rock face at Serabit el-Khadim offers more
questions than answers—and perhaps, still holds secrets waiting to
be uncovered.
A resurfaced interview with Richard Banduric—CEO of Field Propulsion Technologies and former propulsion engineer for both NASA and Lockheed Martin—is drawing new attention due to his extraordinary claims about covert efforts by the U.S. government and private research groups to study and reverse-engineer advanced materials allegedly recovered from unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
Banduric alleges that some of these materials are far beyond
current human technology. Most striking is his claim that
“trillions of invisible extraterrestrial devices”
are scattered across the planet. According to him, these devices
are hundreds of years more advanced than anything humans have
developed, and serve a hidden purpose: monitoring or even
manipulating our species.
One example he gives is a "sliver of metal" he claims to have
personally observed—an object that could allegedly reconfigure
itself and “cloak” to blend into its surroundings. This ability
alone, he says, convinced him of its non-human origin. He further
asserts that these devices are self-destructing and impossible to
replicate or fully study with today’s tools.
Despite the sensational nature of his statements,
Banduric provides no concrete evidence. No
physical samples, photos, or corroborating witnesses have been
presented to support his allegations.
His claims have understandably been met with skepticism. While
some in the UFO research community see them as further reason to
push for government transparency on unidentified aerial phenomena
(UAPs), the scientific community remains largely dismissive,
emphasizing the lack of verifiable data.
As the line between legitimate inquiry and conspiracy continues
to blur in the public discourse, Banduric’s story raises more
questions than answers. If such a vast network of extraterrestrial
devices truly exists, the world may be left wondering: why so
many—and why remain hidden?
On the outskirts of Cluj-Napoca, in the heart of the Transylvanian region, lies a forest that has intrigued scientists, paranormal enthusiasts, and curious tourists alike. Known by some as the “Bermuda Triangle of Romania,” Hoia Baciu Forest has developed a mysterious reputation fueled by decades of unexplained phenomena and eerie legends.
A Reputation Built on Strange Testimonies
The forest gained wider attention in the 1960s, when Romanian
biologist Alexandru Sift reported witnessing unusual light
phenomena and captured photographs of strange shapes among the
trees. Not long after, a technician named Emil Barnea took what
would become one of the country’s most famous UFO photographs,
showing a disc-shaped object hovering above the forest canopy.
These reports, published in the local press, sparked growing
interest in the site and inspired a series of accounts involving
unidentified flying objects and otherworldly occurrences.
Over the years, numerous visitors have claimed to experience
dizziness, disorientation, and inexplicable rashes while inside the
forest. Some have even reported sudden memory loss or the
malfunction of electronic devices. While these claims remain
largely anecdotal and unverified, they have significantly
contributed to the forest’s mystique.
The Mysterious Clearing
One of Hoia Baciu’s most enigmatic features is a circular
clearing in the heart of the forest where vegetation mysteriously
refuses to grow. Despite scientific analyses of the soil, no
conclusive explanation has been found. This near-perfect circle has
become a focal point for paranormal investigations and a popular
spot for photography and speculation.
A Controversial Tourist Attraction
With growing international attention, Hoia Baciu has become a
hub for guided tours, nighttime hikes, and paranormal-themed
excursions. Local agencies now offer experiences aimed at
thrill-seekers hoping to witness something inexplicable. Television
crews and documentary filmmakers frequently visit the site, further
fueling its global allure.
However, this commercial approach has sparked criticism. Some
researchers argue that the tourism industry capitalizes on local
folklore for profit, often at the expense of scientific rigor.
Skeptics caution against drawing conclusions based on subjective
experiences, pointing to the lack of empirical evidence supporting
the more sensational claims.
Between Legend and Reality
Within Romania, perceptions of Hoia Baciu are more divided.
While the English-speaking world often associates Transylvania with
the Dracula mythos, Romanians themselves view Vlad the
Impaler—often linked to Dracula—as a historical figure rather than
a supernatural one. As for the forest, many locals see it as
nothing more than an old woodland with unusual shapes, while others
believe it carries an inexplicable energy.
Whether it’s a site of electromagnetic anomalies, a place shaped
by psychology and suggestion, or simply a forest with a good story,
Hoia Baciu continues to capture imaginations. In a region steeped
in history and myth, the line between the real and the mysterious
remains unusually thin.

For centuries, the location of the Ark of the Covenant—a sacred chest believed to contain the original tablets of the Ten Commandments—has remained one of history’s greatest mysteries. While many doubt the Ark ever existed at all, a series of declassified CIA documents from the 1980s has reignited interest in the legend. These documents suggest that the Ark may have been located by individuals involved in a controversial government program known as "remote viewing."
This program, part of a Cold War-era intelligence initiative
often referred to as the "Stargate Project," sought to explore and
harness extrasensory perception—particularly clairvoyance, or the
ability to perceive distant or hidden objects using the mind alone.
Participants were trained in psychic techniques designed to allow
them to "see" places and events beyond the reach of normal senses.
According to some of these records, remote viewers claimed to have
identified the Ark’s location during their sessions.
Biblical accounts state that the Ark was constructed by the
Israelites shortly after their exodus from Egypt, around the 15th
century BCE. Moses is said to have placed the stone tablets bearing
the Ten Commandments inside the chest to protect and preserve them.
The Ark was revered as a powerful symbol of divine presence and
guidance. Over time, however, its trail vanished from historical
records, giving rise to numerous theories about its fate.
Some believe the Ark was hidden beneath the ruins of Jerusalem,
others suggest it was transported to Ethiopia, and some posit that
it lies buried in the sands of ancient Middle Eastern cities. Yet
the claim that it may have been rediscovered through psychic means
represents a departure from traditional historical or
archaeological inquiry.
There is no public evidence to confirm that the Ark was ever
actually found, and the CIA has never officially acknowledged
recovering such an artifact. Still, the idea that intelligence
agencies explored supernatural methods to locate one of the most
elusive objects in human history is intriguing—and unsettling.
Whether fact, fiction, or something in between, these claims add
another layer to the enduring enigma of the Ark of the Covenant. If
it does still exist, it may be hidden not just beneath layers of
earth, but behind walls of secrecy, protected by the very
institutions that once sought to reveal it.
In November 1897, The Worthington Advance, a regional newspaper, reported a remarkable archaeological discovery in the state of Iowa, USA. During excavations conducted by the Smithsonian Institution’s Division of Eastern Mounds, scientists uncovered the remains of a human skeleton of extraordinary size.
According to the article, the skeleton measured—based on precise
onsite measurements—seven feet six inches in height, or
approximately 2.29 meters. However, the remains were extremely
fragile. Once exposed to open air, the bones reportedly crumbled to
dust, preventing further examination or preservation.
John Wesley Powell, then Director of the Bureau of Ethnology and
a prominent figure in 19th-century American scientific exploration,
was cited in connection with the find. Yet official records from
the Smithsonian remain largely silent regarding the outcome or
scientific documentation of this discovery.
This incident is one of many similar reports from the late 19th
century, when extensive archaeological surveys were conducted
throughout the Midwestern United States. These efforts focused on
ancient burial mounds—earthworks constructed by indigenous cultures
long before European settlement. The origin, purpose, and contents
of these mounds continue to intrigue archaeologists to this
day.
While some modern scholars argue that such claims may stem from
measurement errors or journalistic exaggeration, others question
the disappearance or lack of official recognition for several of
these finds. The Iowa giant remains one of the more puzzling
stories among those early mound explorations.
Tlacotepec de Benito Juárez, Puebla – A series of nighttime attacks on livestock has stirred fear and speculation in this rural region of southeastern Mexico. Farmers and ranchers in Tlacotepec de Benito Juárez and neighboring communities report finding chickens, sheep, and other animals dead and dismembered, bearing deep bite marks they say were made by an unknown creature.
The gruesome scenes have revived whispers of the legendary
Chupacabra, a creature rooted in Latin American
folklore and said to drain the blood of livestock, particularly
goats.
Graphic videos showing the aftermath of the attacks have been
shared on social media. In one particularly disturbing case, a
farmer claims to have found twenty of his sheep dead inside a
fenced enclosure. “There were no signs of forced entry. It’s as if
the thing vanished after the killing,” he told local media.
So far, the attacks have targeted sheep and chickens, but
concern is spreading. Owners of cows, turkeys, and especially goats
now fear their animals may be next.
Local authorities have launched an investigation and are urging
residents not to take matters into their own hands. Recently, two
dogs were found dead—believed to have been poisoned by frustrated
livestock owners acting out of fear.
Despite signs that the attacker could be a wild or stray animal,
the Chupacabra remains a popular explanation. For many in the
region, the mysterious creature is more than just a legend—it’s a
plausible threat.
As the investigation continues, the people of Puebla’s
countryside are keeping watch—and the legend of the goat-sucker
lives on.
Baghdad – In a surprising statement made during a recent press conference, Iraq’s Minister of Transport, Kazem Finjan al-Hamami, claimed that the ancient Sumerians launched spaceships into space around 7,000 years ago.
Speaking in the southern city of Dhi Qar, near the
archaeological remains of the ancient Sumerian city of Ur, the
minister asserted that the region was once “the center of space
exploration” in ancient times. He referred to research “conducted
by Iraqi and international experts” as the basis for his claims,
though he did not cite any specific scientific sources.
According to al-Hamami, the Sumerians developed advanced
technology that enabled them to travel to other planets long before
the modern space age. He also suggested that remnants of this
ancient space technology might still lie buried beneath historical
sites in southern Iraq.
The statement quickly drew widespread attention and criticism
from academics and the public alike. Archaeologists and historians
responded with skepticism, emphasizing that no credible evidence
exists to support the notion of Sumerian space travel. Experts
point out that while the Sumerians made remarkable contributions in
fields such as writing, mathematics, and astronomy, there is no
archaeological record suggesting they had any form of advanced
aerospace technology.
The minister’s remarks come at a time when Iraq is striving to
promote its rich historical and cultural heritage, though some
observers caution against blending mythology with science. So far,
there has been no official response from the Iraqi government to
clarify or support the minister’s claims.

Los Angeles — On a recent episode of her podcast, Khloé Kardashian made some unexpected revelations about her encounters with the unexplained, including a sighting of what she believes was a UFO.
The incident took place “ages ago,” according to Kardashian,
while she was driving with her longtime best friend, Malika Haqq.
“We had been driving for a while and I saw something in the sky,”
she recounted. “I screamed, ‘Oh my gosh, Malika!’ but she didn’t
look in time—and the thing just disappeared.” While Malika didn’t
catch a glimpse, Khloé remains convinced. “I haven’t seen one
since, but I do believe aliens exist,” she said.
Beyond this fleeting encounter, the reality star claims that
paranormal activity is a recurring part of her life. “I hear a
man’s voice all the time when I’m home alone,” she revealed. Her
daughter, True, has reportedly had her own strange experiences as
well. According to Khloé, the young girl once saw the ghost of a
little girl, and a woman with a “funny voice,” whom they believed
to be the spirit of Tristan Thompson’s late mother.
Kardashian’s candid reflections bring a surreal twist to the
world of celebrity podcasts, where personal stories often blur the
lines between the ordinary and the otherworldly. Whether or not
aliens are truly keeping up with the Kardashians, Khloé’s stories
highlight an enduring fascination with the paranormal—even among
the most public of figures.
And as for the aliens—do they know that the “reality” in
“reality show” isn’t always real? The universe may never tell.

British filmmaker and UFO researcher Mark Christopher Lee has stirred controversy once again, claiming that the UK government has recovered at least three crashed unidentified flying objects (UFOs) over the years, based on information allegedly provided by a recent whistleblower encounter.
According to Lee, the alleged recovered craft are linked to
three distinct incidents, including the Pentyrch UFO
incident in Wales on February 26, 2016.
On that night, multiple eyewitnesses reported seeing a huge
pyramid-shaped light in the sky, followed by loud
explosions and unusual military activity in the area. Official
sources claimed it was part of a military exercise, but UFO
enthusiasts have long suspected a cover-up.
Lee also references a supposed UFO crash in
Scotland, though few details have emerged, and a third
case dating back to 1969, when an object
reportedly crashed off the coast of Blackpool.
More strikingly, Lee suggests that the British government has
reverse-engineered these downed craft to develop
advanced technologies, some of which he claims
have already been tested in secret.
When contacted for comment, a spokesperson for the
Ministry of Defence (MoD) stated that the
government "has no opinion on the existence of
extraterrestrial life" and reiterated that the MoD
no longer investigates UFO sightings, having closed its
official UFO desk in 2009.
In light of these claims, Mark Christopher Lee is reportedly
preparing a new documentary, aiming to shine a
light on what he believes are hidden truths. “The public
has a right to know,” he asserts.
Whether this is a groundbreaking revelation or speculative
fiction, the mystery of unidentified aerial phenomena continues to
captivate and divide public opinion in the UK. One thing is
certain: the UFO debate is far from over.
In a recent podcast that’s already stirring controversy in both UFO circles and national security spheres, Australian investigative journalist Ross Coulthart — widely known for his reporting on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) — made a striking claim: the mysterious object encountered by U.S. Navy pilots in 2004 off the coast of California, known as the “Tic Tac” UFO, is not extraterrestrial, but a product of American aerospace giant Lockheed Martin.
“I now know categorically that the Tic Tac is Lockheed Martin,”
Coulthart said bluntly during the interview, challenging years of
speculation that the craft’s seemingly impossible maneuvers were of
alien origin.
The “Tic Tac” incident, named for the object’s shape, has become
a cornerstone in modern UFO lore. In November 2004, Navy pilots
operating from the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz encountered
a white, oval-shaped craft exhibiting instantaneous acceleration,
right-angle turns, and no visible means of propulsion — behavior
that defies known aerodynamics.
But Coulthart went even further, suggesting that the U.S. has
long been working on exotic propulsion technologies far beyond the
public’s imagination.
“I'm increasingly convinced that the United States has made
advancements in electro-gravity,” he stated. “Developments were
made, breakthroughs did happen — in the 1960s.”
According to him, these technological leaps have occurred in
extreme secrecy, hidden within the U.S. military’s so-called “black
programs” — highly classified research projects that receive
funding without public or congressional oversight.
“What I suspect is going on is there are a number of people in
the national security establishment who justify this secrecy under
a ‘noble cause’ — even when it involves stealing tech,” he added,
hinting at the possibility of recovered non-human technology being
reverse-engineered behind closed doors.
Coulthart’s bold statements are not without precedent. He’s been
a prominent voice in recent years calling for greater transparency
in U.S. government investigations into UAPs. Yet, as with many of
his past assertions, his latest claims were not accompanied by
concrete evidence — at least not publicly.
The timing of his remarks is noteworthy. They come as multiple
U.S. congressional committees continue to investigate whistleblower
testimonies and military encounters involving unidentified craft,
some of which allegedly involve “non-human intelligence” and covert
recovery programs.
If Coulthart’s claims are true, they raise serious questions:
Why has such technology — potentially revolutionary for energy,
transportation, or defense — been kept hidden? And who benefits
from this secrecy?
For now, the mystery of the Tic Tac remains — not in outer
space, but perhaps deep within the vaults of America’s
defense-industrial complex.
As Americans celebrated the Fourth of July with fireworks and festivities, one resident of Melbourne, Arkansas, claims to have witnessed something far more extraordinary than pyrotechnics: a silent, black triangular craft hovering above his home late Friday night.
According to the witness, the event occurred at approximately
10:35 PM local time on July 4th. He was standing in his front yard,
preparing to launch fireworks with his granddaughter, when he
turned to look toward the house and saw a large, dark object in the
sky.
“I turned around to check if my wife was coming outside, and
that’s when I saw it,” he reported. “A black triangle-shaped craft,
maybe 50 feet across, just hanging there in the air—about 300 feet
above our house.”
The sighting lasted between one and a half to two minutes. The
craft reportedly remained motionless, emitting no sound, with
visible lights on its underside. Then, in a matter of seconds, it
tilted slightly and vanished at an incredible speed.
“I got goosebumps instantly,” the man said. “I knew exactly what
I was seeing, and I was upset my wife didn’t get to see it
too.”
Similar reports of triangular-shaped flying objects have
surfaced across the United States over the past few decades, often
described as silent, low-flying, and accompanied by lights. While
some speculate these sightings involve secretive military
aircraft—such as the rumored “Aurora” project—others believe they
may indicate something not of this world.
No additional witnesses have come forward, and local authorities
have not issued any official statement regarding the sighting. The
incident occurred in clear weather during a typically loud evening,
making the silence of the craft all the more striking to the
observer.
Was this a misidentified drone, an advanced aircraft under
wraps, or something far more mysterious?
For now, the skies over Melbourne hold their secrets.

In a statement that’s reigniting debate over what the U.S. government may or may not know about extraterrestrial life, Republican Congressman Eric Burlison of Missouri made explosive claims on social media, saying that whistleblower and former intelligence officer David Grusch told him alien-human hybrids are living among us — and that former President Donald Trump was briefed on their existence in what was described as an “existential event” that drastically altered his perception of reality.
"He told me that some of these hybrids are already on
Earth," Burlison said in a video posted to X (formerly
Twitter). "But he wouldn’t say whether they’re aware of their
origins."
Two Alien Types: The “Nordics” and the “Grays”
According to Burlison, Grusch described two primary types of
alien beings:
The “Nordics”, who reportedly resemble humans
and possess technology several hundred years ahead of
ours.
The “Grays”, more familiar to the public
imagination, are said to be far more advanced,
with the capability to operate their ships using only their
minds.
Grusch reportedly claimed that the Nordics are engaged in a
hybridization program, and that some of these
alien-human hybrids are already living on
Earth.
Trump’s Alleged Briefing — and the Credibility Problem
Burlison stated that Trump was given a classified
briefing about the existence of these beings. He says
Grusch described the moment as a pivotal psychological event for
the former president — one that fundamentally shifted his view of
the world.
This part of the story, however, raises eyebrows. Trump, not
exactly known for discretion or keeping sensitive information to
himself, has never publicly acknowledged such a
briefing — a fact that casts serious doubt over
the account, or at least parts of it.
Wild Revelation or Strategic Distraction?
David Grusch has previously testified under oath about alleged
government programs involving the recovery of “non-human”
technology and biological material. His claims have gained traction
among some members of Congress and the public, while others have
criticized them as unverifiable and based on secondhand
information.
Burlison’s recent comments bring fresh attention — and
controversy — to Grusch’s broader narrative. They also risk fueling
conspiracy theories, especially in a political
climate where misinformation often spreads faster than facts.
So far, there has been no official confirmation or
denial from the Pentagon, the White House, or Trump
himself.
Is this the slow unveiling of a hidden truth — or just another
chapter in the strange, sprawling saga of alien lore in American
politics? For now, the line between disclosure and delusion remains
as blurry as ever.

In the murky world of UFO investigations, few voices resonate as persistently—and provocatively—as that of Danny Sheehan. A seasoned attorney and longtime advocate for government transparency, Sheehan is no stranger to legal battles or controversial causes. But his most recent claims go far beyond classified documents or courtroom drama. According to Sheehan, the U.S. government has been hiding a cosmic truth for nearly eight decades: contact with extraterrestrial intelligence.
Roswell: The Beginning of a Global Cover-Up?
Sheehan’s narrative begins in 1947 with the infamous Roswell
incident. The U.S. military, he claims, recovered a non-human
spacecraft, setting in motion a decades-long cover-up. Since then,
he alleges, the Pentagon and the CIA have worked hand-in-hand to
keep this information—and the technology that came with it—away
from the public eye and out of the hands of rival nations.
But Sheehan doesn’t stop at Roswell. In a startling twist, he
argues that the Vietnam War was not only a geopolitical conflict or
a fight against communism, but also a strategic effort to prevent
other global powers—or perhaps even non-human entities—from
accessing alien technology that could alter the global military
balance.
Karen Silkwood: A Martyr of the Silence?
Sheehan further connects these dots with the tragic story of
Karen Silkwood, the chemical technician and whistleblower who died
in a suspicious car accident in 1974 while investigating safety
violations at the Kerr-McGee nuclear facility. Officially deemed an
accident, her death has long fueled speculation. To Sheehan,
Silkwood represents more than a corporate casualty—she’s a symbol
of what happens when someone gets too close to dangerous
truths.
“She was silenced,” he has suggested in recent interviews, “not
just because she exposed nuclear negligence, but because she may
have stumbled upon something deeper—something linked to the
government’s most closely guarded secrets.”
Too Outlandish to Ignore?
While some may dismiss Sheehan’s theories as fringe speculation,
his warnings are gaining traction at a time when public trust in
institutions is at a historic low. The Pentagon has openly admitted
to studying unexplained aerial phenomena (UAPs), and mainstream
news outlets are treating these disclosures with increasing
seriousness. Within this context, Sheehan’s claims—however
extraordinary—are beginning to sound less like science fiction and
more like plausible questions worth asking.
And for those who scoff at the idea of a sprawling, decades-long
cover-up, Sheehan has a simple retort: “If you don’t believe these
threats are real, you haven’t been reading the news.”
Paranoia or Precedent?
The real dilemma may not be whether Sheehan is right or wrong,
but what his assertions reveal about our collective anxieties. The
Vietnam War, the nuclear industry, national security—themes he
weaves into a grander narrative—all carry enough ambiguity to
support a range of interpretations. And in a world where the line
between classified truth and public myth is increasingly blurred,
voices like Sheehan’s challenge us to confront uncomfortable
possibilities.
A middle school in Kabale was forced to close its doors this week after a series of disturbing incidents described by students and teachers as “demonic attacks.” Since the beginning of the term, dozens of pupils had reportedly been “possessed,” screaming, fainting, crawling on the floor, hitting themselves, and speaking in incoherent voices.
Witnesses say that during a recent school meeting held to
address the matter, at least nine students began barking like dogs,
crawling on their bellies like snakes, and calling out the name of
a teacher, claiming he had “sacrificed” them in some kind of
ritual.
A spiritual conference and prayer service had been hastily
organized by the local community, but to no avail. Tensions boiled
over when enraged parents stormed the accused teacher’s home,
setting fire to his property. Four houses belonging to him were
destroyed, along with barns containing goats, sheep, pigs, and
crops. The teacher, who has denied any wrongdoing, was suspended
along with another staff member.
Meanwhile, local police have vowed to track down and prosecute
the vandals. “We will hold accountable those who took the law into
their own hands,” said a police spokesperson.
As fear and superstition swirl across the district, one resident
put it this way: “Sometimes, the people with the smallest guts have
the biggest gut feelings.”

For a few days, social media was ablaze. Internet users around the world thought they had uncovered long-awaited proof of extraterrestrial life after a Google Maps image began circulating — what looked like a flying saucer appeared to be partially buried in the sands of the Sahara, not far from the small town of Bordj Omar Driss in southern Algeria.
The story was first launched by well-known UFO researcher Scott
Waring. Scanning satellite images of this remote desert region, he
came across a circular structure that he immediately interpreted as
a crashed spaceship resting some ten meters underground. Soon
enough, the rumor gained momentum: forums and specialized pages
shared the image, fueling the idea of a forgotten alien craft
hidden beneath the dunes.
But the mirage was quickly shattered. Upon closer inspection of
the surrounding area, another researcher spotted an identical
structure nearby, this one topped with a tower under construction.
It turned out to be nothing more than the concrete base of a wind
turbine — a perfectly ordinary round foundation in the eyes of
engineers.
This mix-up is yet another reminder of the dangers of jumping to
conclusions in the world of UFO research. In the age of the
internet, a single intriguing image is enough to fire up the
collective imagination. Yet, more often than not, the reality is
far less mysterious than fiction: before seeing a flying saucer in
the desert, it’s usually wise to consider whether it’s simply an
ordinary human project after all.
Flying is frightening enough these days—but imagine locking eyes with a ghost mid-flight. That’s exactly what happened to psychic Chloe Smith, who says a spirit acknowledged her with a salute aboard a Ryanair flight.
“He was sitting next to a man, just five rows in front of me,”
Smith recalls. “He turned around and looked straight at me, as if
he knew I could see him.” The moment, brief but powerful, came with
a silent message: I see you too.
Chloe Smith is no stranger to encounters with the other side.
According to her, ghosts appear to her almost daily—in airports,
hotels, swimming pools, and now airplanes. “They find ways to let
me know they’re there,” she explains. “Sometimes it’s a look, a
feeling, a small shift in energy. I’m never really on vacation. And
you’re never really alone.”
As for who the ghost on the Ryanair flight might have been,
Smith is hesitant to speculate. “Maybe he was there for a nervous
family member. Or perhaps he was a former pilot who once flew that
very aircraft. They often return to familiar places.”
While most travelers fear turbulence or delays, the idea of a
ghost on board may rattle some even more. But Smith insists that
the spirits she sees aren’t there to frighten—they’re often
protective. “They’re usually gentle presences. Watchful.
Caring.”
So next time you board a plane, keep an eye out. If you catch a
ghostly figure waving, let’s hope it’s a friendly
hello—and not a final goodbye.
A mysterious unidentified flying object (UFO)
was recently spotted above Mount Shasta, California, on Google
Maps. Visible in a satellite image, the object appears to hover
just above the snow-covered peak. Its disc-like, metallic shape has
sparked intrigue among internet users—some claiming it's evidence
of extraterrestrial presence, while others suggest it may be a
glitch in the image. Mount Shasta, long associated with mystical
lore and paranormal activity, has once again become the focus of
speculation. This latest sighting only adds to the mountain’s
enigmatic reputation.
As the prevailing theory attributes the surge of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) spotted along the U.S.-Mexico border to drug cartel drones, a former Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agent and Army veteran is pushing back — and bringing startling evidence with him.
Bob Thompson, who served both in the military and with CBP,
appeared recently on a podcast dedicated to unexplained phenomena.
During the interview, he revealed never-before-seen footage
captured by a CBP reconnaissance plane in early 2020 near the
Arizona border. The object, dubbed “The Cigar” due to its
short, cylindrical shape, had no visible wings, no propellers, and
left no detectable heat signature — a serious challenge to the
drone explanation.
“This wasn’t a cartel drone,” Thompson insisted. “It was moving
at an unbelievable speed, and it made no sound at all.” He didn’t
rule out the possibility that it could have been a missile under
test, but emphasized that the event deserves serious
investigation.
More strikingly, Thompson says he’s spoken to over 100 CBP
agents who have witnessed similar unidentified craft. “I’ve seen
orbs in the distance, I’ve seen cigar-shaped craft, I’ve seen
triangles,” he recounted. “These aren’t hallucinations. These are
real.”
But perhaps the most bizarre part of his testimony concerns what
agents are now calling “portals” — mysterious circular openings
appearing in the sky. “They’re not smoke rings,” Thompson said.
“They’re something else. We don’t know what, but it’s
terrifying.”
While CBP officers typically focus on border security, these
reports suggest they may also be on the front lines of an
unexplained aerial mystery. So far, no official investigation has
been launched, and the incidents remain undocumented in any formal
way.
The UFO research community is buzzing, but official channels
remain silent. Skeptics continue to dismiss the claims, suggesting
misidentifications or experimental military tech. But for others,
it’s the government’s silence that’s most suspicious.
And while some joke about when aliens will upgrade their tech
from cigars to vape pens, Bob Thompson isn’t laughing. “This isn’t
about belief. It’s about facts. And we’re ignoring them.”
In an era where borders are under constant surveillance and
high-tech scrutiny, maybe it’s time we expand another kind of
frontier — the frontier of our understanding.
Alderney (Channel Islands), December 19, 2012 – The morning fog hung heavy over the island of Alderney, casting an eerie veil across the landscape. In the midst of this mysterious atmosphere, a British couple vacationing on the island claim to have witnessed something truly astonishing. A photograph, taken almost by accident, is now reigniting a centuries-old question: do ghost ships really exist?
Bill C., a tourist from Kent, was enjoying a quiet holiday with
his wife when what began as a simple photo opportunity turned into
a scene worthy of a gothic novel.
"It was a misty and very atmospheric day," Bill C. recalls. "My
wife asked me to stop the car so she could take a picture of the
lighthouse." But as he reached for his camera, something strange
caught his eye on the horizon. Zooming in, he couldn’t believe what
he saw.
"I saw a small three-masted ship sailing close to the coast – it
looked like something straight out of the Renaissance," he says,
still visibly stunned by the experience.
The couple watched as the vessel drifted silently toward the
breakwater, then onward in the direction of Guernsey, crossing the
path of the Condor ferry. A curious route for a ship that looked
centuries out of place.
Trying to make sense of the sighting, C. offered a plausible
explanation: perhaps it was a replica of the Matthew, the
ship once sailed by famed Venetian explorer John Cabot, which has
been reconstructed and used for maritime tourism events.
However, that theory quickly ran aground. Port authorities
confirmed that no such vessel — replica or otherwise — had been
registered or seen near Guernsey or Alderney on that date. In fact,
the Matthew had not been operating anywhere near the
Channel Islands at the time.
With the rational explanation ruled out, attention turned back
to the inexplicable. Local historians referenced an Elizabethan
ship believed to have wrecked on Alderney's shores in 1592 — a ship
whose legend, like so many maritime tales, refuses to sink into
obscurity. According to local lore, a ghostly vessel has long been
said to haunt these waters, appearing only under certain weather
conditions.
Could it have been a mirage, a trick of light and fog known as a
Fata Morgana? Or was it truly a ghost ship — one of those spectral
vessels sailors of old swore they’d seen, drifting silently through
the mists?
For Bill C., one thing is clear: what he saw that morning was
real.
"I'm not the kind of person who believes in this stuff," he
says. "But that ship... it was there. And then it just vanished
into the fog. As if it had never been there at all."
A fleeting glimpse, caught on camera, but perhaps enough to
rekindle the age-old mystery of the seas.
Could it be that the ocean, too, remembers its dead?
In 1938, a team of archaeologists led by a Chinese professor discovered small humanoid skeletons and stone discs engraved with an unknown language in the remote Bayankara-Ula mountains. These artifacts sparked wild speculation, and when they were finally understood, the authorities did everything to bury the truth—because what they revealed was too disturbing to be made public…
A Strange Discovery in the Bayankara-Ula
Mountains
In 1938, Chinese archaeologist Chi Pu Tei led
an expedition into the remote Bayankara-Ula mountain range, near
the border of China and Tibet. The area, largely unexplored at the
time, featured a series of mysterious caves carved into
cliffs—seemingly ancient burial chambers. What the team discovered
shocked them: small skeletal remains, about 4 feet
(1.2 meters) tall, with oversized skulls and
fragile bone structures—unlike any known human group.
Beside these skeletons were stone discs, later
referred to as the Dropa stones. Roughly the size
of a vinyl record, each disc had a hole in the center and was
covered in tiny spiral inscriptions, written in a
language that defied classification.
Unintelligible Artifacts… Then Deciphered
For years, the Dropa stones remained a mystery. It wasn’t until
the 1960s that another Chinese scientist, Tsum Um
Nui, claimed to have deciphered the
inscriptions. According to his translation, the discs told
the story of a spacefaring people whose ship
crashed in the mountains thousands of years ago. These beings, the
Dropa, were stranded on Earth and had no way to
return home. They eventually attempted to integrate with the local
tribes.
This account was both fascinating and unsettling. If true, it
would challenge the very foundation of human
history—suggesting extraterrestrial contact in prehistoric
times.
Official Silence and Disappearing
Evidence
Shortly after Tsum Um Nui published his findings in a scientific
journal in Beijing, the reaction from the authorities was swift and
suspicious: his article was censored, his
credibility questioned, and the Dropa stones were removed
from public display. Some reports suggest the artifacts
were once housed in a museum in Xi’an before vanishing
without a trace.
The story of the Dropa quickly became taboo. In a China
undergoing political transformation, the government
seemingly suppressed further investigation, possibly
fearing the implications such a story could have—both
scientifically and ideologically.
Myth or Suppressed Truth?
To this day, the so-called "Chinese Roswell" remains a
divisive mystery. Skeptics dismiss it as a
well-crafted hoax, citing the lack of physical evidence, the
disappearance of the discs, and the unverified existence of Tsum Um
Nui—who appears in no official academic records. But others point
out that many archaeological discoveries throughout history
have been suppressed, especially those that challenge
dominant worldviews.
Independent researchers continue to search for clues. Some claim
to have seen photographs of the discs; others reference classified
documents or local Tibetan legends that speak of “star
beings” who once lived in the mountains.
Conclusion: A Truth Too Disturbing to
Reveal?
The Bayankara-Ula affair raises a fundamental question:
how far will authorities go to protect the “official”
version of history? Whether the Dropa story is factual,
exaggerated, or entirely fictional, it taps into something deeply
human: our fascination with the unknown and the
possibility that we are not, and have never been,
alone.
In a world where scientific discovery sometimes collides with
politics and cultural control, the Dropa mystery serves as a
haunting reminder that the truth isn't always
where we're told to look.

In a world where the lines between science and spirituality are increasingly blurred, a recent statement has sent shockwaves through diplomatic, religious, and UFO disclosure circles. Daniel Sheehan, a prominent American attorney, political activist, and longtime advocate for UFO transparency, claims that the current Pope, Leo XIV, may become the first pontiff to open the Vatican’s secret UFO files.
In a recent interview with an independent disclosure-focused
media outlet, Sheehan — who has served as an advisor to both the
Vatican and the White House — suggested that Pope Leo XIV is
determined to reconcile faith and science in a future-facing effort
to modernize the Catholic Church. According to Sheehan, such an
initiative could place the Holy See at the forefront of a global
shift: the official acknowledgment of intelligent extraterrestrial
life.
A Legacy Written in the Stars
While the claim is bold, Sheehan points to a historical
precedent. He notes that a previous Leo — Pope Leo XIII —
established the Vatican Observatory in 1891, a move that has long
fueled speculation about the Church’s true interest in the
cosmos.
“There has always been a faction within the Church that believes
the discovery of extraterrestrial life is not incompatible with
Catholic doctrine,” said Sheehan. “Pope Leo XIV is building on that
legacy. He wants to create a deep dialogue between theology and
modern cosmology.”
Bridging Worlds: Theology and Exobiology
Sheehan is no stranger to the UFO topic. In the 1970s, during
the presidency of Jimmy Carter — who famously reported his own UFO
encounter — Sheehan was tasked with engaging Vatican officials on
the subject. According to him, Leo XIV’s papacy presents a historic
opportunity for a new kind of openness.
“I believe Pope Leo XIV is ready to go where no other pope has
dared,” Sheehan stated. “He wants to bring the Church into the 21st
century, aligning it with emerging truths about our universe —
including the likely existence of an advanced nonhuman
civilization.”
Pressure on the U.S. Government?
Sheehan also suggests that the Pope’s actions could increase
pressure on the United States government to release more of its
classified UFO materials. The Vatican's moral and spiritual
authority, he argues, could tip the scales globally.
"If the Pope publicly speaks about this, it could set a
precedent so powerful that governments would no longer be able to
hide behind secrecy," he said. He added that the current U.S.
president might even see this as an opportunity to be the first
world leader to confirm the reality of extraterrestrial life —
potentially in collaboration with the Vatican.
A Church in Transition
The Vatican has not issued any official comment on Sheehan’s
remarks. However, observers note a growing openness in recent years
to previously taboo subjects. Jesuit astronomers at the Vatican
Observatory have already stated publicly that belief in
extraterrestrial life does not contradict Christian faith.
As the world inches closer to what many believe could be an era
of unprecedented transparency about unidentified aerial phenomena,
Rome’s voice — long silent on the matter — could prove decisive.
And if Daniel Sheehan is right, humanity may be on the verge of a
dialogue once thought impossible: one that unites the heavens above
with the faith below.

A startling new report has been added to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) database, this time from a quiet corner of Wales. On May 22, 2025, at 2:20 PM local time, a former leading aircraft technician with the Royal Navy claims to have witnessed a brief but extraordinary aerial phenomenon over the town of Johnstown.
The witness, who remains anonymous, recounted the experience in
detail, describing three white lights flying in a triangular
formation directly overhead. The event, which lasted no more than
five seconds, left the seasoned military observer both puzzled and
awestruck.
“I was sitting outside smoking a cigarette when I saw them pass
over,” the witness reported. “The speed didn’t match anything I’ve
ever seen — not satellites, not aircraft. I spent seven years in
the Royal Navy and I know how planes move. This was something
else.”
According to the report, one of the three lights appeared to
move slightly out of sync with the others, leading the observer to
believe these were not lights on a single craft, but rather three
independent objects moving in coordination.
The estimated speed was said to be several thousand miles per
hour, crossing a vast portion of the sky in mere seconds — and
crucially, in total silence.
“There was absolutely no noise. None. And that’s what really
stunned me,” the witness noted. “It was just incredible. I have
absolutely no idea what it could have been.”
The objects were described as slightly larger than stars and
directly overhead, making it difficult to gauge their altitude.
However, the observer estimated they were flying at several
thousand feet.
