In 1959 a capsule with a 16mm camera was launched aboard a Thor missile. Designed to record footage of the missile, the engineers realized the device could record images of the Earth too. So this the first video footage of Earth from space on a 16mm film
The ceiling of the DIY world: a civilian phased-array radar.
It provides 360° surveillance within a 6-kilometer radius and can reliably detect small aerial vehicles with an RCS as low as 0.005–0.01 square meters.
People who eat Lanmaoa asiatica frequently experience vivid hallucinations involving miniature people, elves, or tiny human-like figures.
No matter the nationality or cultural background, everyone seemed to hallucinate roughly the same little people. Scientists have no idea why.
The Department of War today published the fourth tranche of declassified UAP/UFO records under the PURSUE transparency initiative, adding dozens of new reports, videos, photographs, and historical documents spanning from the late 1940s through 2025.
Among the most notable releases:
• A 1949 Los Alamos Conference on Aerial Phenomena, bringing together military officials, Atomic Energy Commission personnel, the FBI, and scientists—including Edward Teller—to discuss unexplained "green fireballs" near the sensitive facility.
• An unresolved 2025 East China Sea UAP report (PR105), including sensor footage of an unidentified object observed during U.S. military operations that investigators were unable to conclusively identify (video below).
• Additional military videos, NASA imagery, and historical Air Force investigations into unresolved aerial phenomena.
This is HUGE news.
PhD astronomer and former NASA engineer Ivo Busko has single-handedly driven a final nail into the coffin of the contamination-based hypotheses (e.g. plate defects and cosmic rays) proposed to explain the VASCO transients. He did so using one of the most creative approaches in astronomy I have ever seen: by analysing pre-Sputnik photographic plates from a German telescope known to suffer from severe optical distortions (aberrations), he demonstrated that the transients appear on these plates and exhibit the same optical distortions as the stars themselves. They are slightly narrower and sharper than the stars, consistent with brief flashes.
This is a crucial result. It shows that the transient light passed through the telescope optics, meaning the transients originate from real objects producing light, rather than from plate defects or cosmic-ray contamination that hit the plate. Dr Busko has also shown that the transients cluster spatially and are associated with periods close to nuclear tests. See the example of the triple transient with optical comas.
This is the greatest gift. Congratulations, Ivo.
I'm happy beyond belief.

Video footage posted recently by the YouTube channel Project Fear, filmed near Area 51 at the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR), appears to have captured a new sixth-generation fighter aircraft, possibly the U.S. Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD), known more commonly as the Boeing F-47.
I can’t wait for them to disclose that there are no aliens visiting the planet so that we can stop getting trolled by all these fake CIA whistleblowers trying to get views for their YouTube channels
May 2007 podcast feat missing scientist Carl Grillmair: 84° stellar stream show a dwarf galaxy stretched in a vast arc,tidal disrupts on galactic scale. Near black holes,stars are spaghettified into flares at light speed. Gravity, at diff scales. Can we copy at smaller scales?
Director James Cameron on why Big Tech owning AGI is scarier than any science fiction he's ever made:
"AGI will not emerge from a government funded program. It will emerge from one of the tech giants currently funding this multi-billion dollar research."
And when that happens, he warns, you won't get a vote on it:
"So then you'll be living in a world that you didn't agree to, didn't vote for, that you are co-inhabiting with a super intelligent alien species that answers to the goals and rules of a corporation."
A corporation that already knows everything about you:
"An entity which has access to the comms, beliefs, everything you ever said, and the whereabouts of every person in the country via your personal data."
From there, the slide toward something far darker is shorter than most people think:
"Surveillance capitalism can toggle pretty quickly into digital totalitarianism."
And even the best-case outcome isn't reassuring. Tech giants becoming the self-appointed arbiters of human good is, as he puts it, the fox guarding the hen house.
He's not buying the idea that these companies would stay benevolent with that kind of power:
"They would never ever think of using that power against us and strip mining us for our last drop of cash."
The sarcasm is the point.
Cameron has spent four decades imagining worst-case futures on screen. His verdict on this one:
"That's a scarier scenario than what I presented in the Terminator 40 years ago, if for no other reason than it's no longer science fiction."
