Auroras And The Magnetosphere Of Jupiter

Auroras and the Magnetosphere of Jupiter

(via APOD; Illustration Credit: JAXA; Inset Image Credit: NASA, ESA, Chandra, Hubble )

Jupiter has auroras. Like near the Earth, the magnetic field of our Solar System’s largest planet compresses when impacted by a gust of charged particles from the Sun. This magnetic compression funnels charged particles towards Jupiter’s poles and down into the atmosphere. There, electrons are temporarily excited or knocked away from atmospheric gases, after which, when de-exciting or recombining with atmospheric ions, auroral light is emitted. The featured illustration portrays the magnificent magnetosphere around Jupiter in action. In the inset image released last month, the Earth-orbiting Chandra X-ray Observatory shows unexpectedly powerful X-ray light emitted by Jovian auroras, depicted in false-colored purple. That Chandra inset is superposed over an optical image taken at a different time by the Hubble Space Telescope. This aurora on Jupiter was seen in October 2011, several days after the Sun emitted a powerful Coronal Mass Ejection (CME).

UFO Sighting Antarctica 2012: This Particular Sighting Became Renowned After UFO Hunters Discovered It
UFO Sighting Antarctica 2012: This Particular Sighting Became Renowned After UFO Hunters Discovered It

UFO Sighting Antarctica 2012: This particular sighting became renowned after UFO hunters discovered it using Google Earth, what seems to be the landing or crash site of a mysterious craft that appears to be guarded by four snowy shapes, strongly resembling a battery of tanks.

After it was made public on February 15, 2012 by Valentin Degterev, the Google Earth image was deliberately altered in order to mask the ground vehicles and the crashed UFO. Some people who were aware of such a consequence managed to capture a few screen shots along with videos showing  how the spot looked before it got blurred, as well as its coordinates.

If you look at the following coordinates: 166.50.52.31 E / 77.49.47.46 S using Google Earth, the UFO crash site appears, but apparently the craft and the tanks are missing for obvious reasons. After this case caused a stir among UFO enthusiasts, the image was deliberately altered and is now showing only a few hints of what it used to be. Fortunately, a video was released showing the spot with the UFO and its guardians, along with the coordinates which can be seen by hitting the link  ➡   https://youtu.be/Iq7Wf3D1_JY

The Dulce Papers, Leaked From The Secret Underground Military Facility In New Mexico

The Dulce Papers, leaked from the secret underground military facility in new Mexico

One of the people who escaped the Dulce facility was reported to be a CIA agent who, prior to leaving, made some notes, photos, and videotapes, before going into hiding. He has been in hiding ever since, and every six months he allegedly contacts each of the people he left copies of the material with. His instructions were that if he missed four successive contacts, the people could do whatever they want with the material. In December 1987 a Description of these so called “Dulce Papers” was issued, and received by many ufo researchers. The leak is suspected to have come from one of the caretakers of the papers. The Dulce Papers themselves were said to be composed of the following:

●  25 black and white photos ●  6 minute video tape of Dulce Facility with no dialogue ●  discussion of ultraviolet light & gamma rays ●  set of technical papers pertaining to Facility

Alien Sighting Flancy, France. A group of friends were hanging out when they had a close encounter with an alien being. Luckily they were able to capture the experience on camera. As they were standing around a small fire they noticed something moving in the trees behind them, one of the friends throws down a lit branch close to the area of movement and that’s when you see a small grey alien peeking out from behind a tree. The alien then disappears, never to be seen again.
