Mystery objects in Chinese sky after claims moon rover "killed by UFO"
Mystery objects in
Chinese sky after claims moon rover "killed by UFO"
by Rob Waugh
When the Chinese moon rover Jade Rabbit broke down after
travelling a mere 60 feet across the moon’s surface, scientists and engineers
knew who to blame: aliens.
The government announced that it had fallen victim to extreme cold - but some state-run magazines and TV shows offered another explanation, with the support of some scientists, and even members of the military.

China's Jade Rabbit moon rover ran into problems on January
25 as it was shutting down in preparation for the …
Nigel Watson, author of The Haynes UFO Investigations Manual says that the thousands of Chinese UFO enthusiasts believe that, "it was either nobbled by aliens or the USA. This would be to prevent the robot from discovering bases and other secret technology on the surface of the Moon."
More UFO sightings have followed - including a "head-sized" ball of light which flew into a house in Qihe County, according to Shandong Qilu radio.

'Quiet Sun' baffling astronomers
The Sun is the dimmest it has been for nearly a century.
There are no sunspots, very few solar flares - and our
nearest star is the quietest it has been for a very long time.
The observations are baffling astronomers, who are due to
study new pictures of the Sun, taken from space, at the UK National Astronomy
Meeting.
The Sun normally undergoes an 11-year cycle of activity. At
its peak, it has a tumultuous boiling atmosphere that spits out flares and
planet-sized chunks of super-hot gas. This is followed by a calmer period.

UFO or a stealth plane?
UFO or a stealth plane? Mysterious triangular objects
spotted flying in formation over Texas
Aircraft enthusiast Steve Douglass picked up a pilot's voice over his radio and then spotted three strange aircraft zooming across the sky

classified stealth jet
An unexplained triangular-shaped
UFO is baffling aviation experts.
The mysterious craft was seen with two others above Texas by
plane spotter Steve Douglass, who quickly took this picture.
Aviation experts believe the photograph to be genuine and
rumours are spreading it could in fact be a secret military jet.
In the seconds before picking up his camera, Steve claims to
have listened in to a conversation between pilots on his radio, adding fuel to
the classified aircraft claims. Read more >>

The Piney Woods Incident
The Piney Woods
Incident, Cash-Landrum
An extremely haunting UFO sighting which has well stood
the test of time was an event which took place in the Piney
Woods of Texas, near the town of Huffman. On the chilly night of December
29.1980, two women and one child encountered a craft of unknown origin, and all
three suffered not only emotional trauma, but severe physical injury as well.
A drive through the Piney Woods of Texas at night
is a lonely, somewhat spooky one to begin with, but on this particular night, a
routine drive turned into a life changing event for these three
people.
Fifty-one year old Betty Cash was driving through
the woods traveling from New Caney to Dayton on Farm to Market road
1485. Riding with her was her friend, Vickie Landrum, fifty-seven years old,
and Vickie's seven year old grandson, Colby. They were looking for an open
Bingo game, but found all of them closed down for the Holiday season. They
stopped for a meal at a restaurant, and then continued their journey.
Soon, the three began to see a light in the distance, and in
a few short minutes this light became a glowing object, slowly crossing the
tops of the tall pine trees. The area that they were in was densely occupied by
pine and oak trees, surrounded by occasional swamps and small lakes. As
they proceeded along their way, their initial thought was that the object was
an airplane or helicopter from one of the airfields not too distant from their
location. read more >>

NASA's Kepler telescope finds 715 new planets

NASA's Kepler telescope finds 715 new planets outside solar
system

WASHINGTON -- The Earth's galaxy is looking far
more crowded and hospitable. NASA on Wednesday confirmed a bonanza of 715 newly
discovered planets outside the solar system.
Douglas Hudgins, NASA's exoplanet exploration program
scientist, called the announcement a major step toward the
planet-hunting Kepler telescope's ultimate goal: "finding Earth
2.0."
It's a big step in not just finding other Earths,
but "the possibility of life elsewhere," said Lisa Kaltenegger, a
Harvard and Max Planck Institute astronomer who wasn't part of the discovery
team.
Scientists using the Kepler telescope pushed the number of planets discovered in the galaxy to about 1,700. Twenty years ago, astronomers had not found any planets circling stars other than the ones revolving around the sun.
"We almost doubled just today the number of planets known
to humanity," NASA planetary scientist Jack Lissauer said in a
teleconference.
Astronomers used a new confirmation technique to
come up with the largest single announcement of a batch of exoplanets -- what
planets outside our solar system are called.
Wednesday's announcements also were about implications for
life behind those big numbers.

All the new planets are in systems like ours where multiple
planets circle a star. The 715 planets came from looking at just 305
stars. They were nearly all in size closer to Earth than gigantic Jupiter.
And four of those new exoplanets orbit their stars in
"habitable zones" where it is not too hot or not too cold
for liquid water which is crucial for life to exist.
The four new habitable zone planets are all at least twice
as big as Earth so that makes them more likely to be gas planets instead of
rocky ones like Earth -- and less likely to harbour life.
So far Kepler has found nine exoplanets in the habitable
zone, NASA said. Astronomers expect to find more when they look at all four
years of data collected by the now-crippled Kepler; so far they have looked at
two years.
Planets in the habitable zone are likely to be farther out
from their stars because it is hot close in. And planets farther out take more
time orbiting, so Kepler has to wait longer to see it again.
Another of Kepler's latest discoveries indicates
that "small planets are extremely common in our galaxy," said MIT
astronomer Sara Seagar, who wasn't part of the discovery team. "Nature
wants to make small planets."
And, in general, smaller planets are more likely to be able
to harbour life than big ones, Kaltenegger said.
