Is There a '2001' Alien Monolith on Mars? (Video)

By Tom Rose

A video on YouTube uses NASA images of Mars to pose the question of UFO origin. Is there a 2001: A Space Odyssey type monolith jutting up from the surface? If not, then what is it?

The monolithic object shown below recalls the central theme of the famous book and movie: a monolithic structure planted on the surface of the Moon by an alien civilization millions of years in the past.

Its purpose was clearly to act as a beacon to an alien race monitoring humans for signs of their eventual evolution into space travelers.

The video also points to a similar obelisk on the asteroid Phobos, but it's not nearly as dramatic and scientists have never speculated that, unlike Mars, there was ever a life form on the barren piece of space rock orbiting the Sun.

The Martian monolith is clearly at odds with its surrounding topography, thrust out from the surface and perfectly symmetrical. Such a shape and form is even a rarity on Earth where titanic geological forces have produced bizarre, seemingly man-made structures. But none which appear to be perfectly rectangular in proportion.

Could such an object be the source of UFO sightings throughout history? Have ancient civilizations planted the Martian monolith as a means of signalling humans that other life forms exist in the universe?

Kidnapped by a Flying Saucer?

By Nick Redfern

Ninety-Fifty-Three was a historic, memorable, and intriguing year. On January 7, President Harry S. Truman announced that the United States had added a terrifying new weapon to its growing, military arsenal: the Hydrogen Bomb. Two months later, Soviet Premier Josef Stalin passed away, following the effects of a devastating stroke. On May 5, Aldous Huxley took the hit of mescaline that inspired him to write The Doors of Perception.
Barely a month following Huxley’s spaced-out stroll down Psychedelic Avenue, the Central Intelligence Agency formally approved the use of LSD in one of its early “mind-control” programs, MKUltra. July 27 saw the end of the Korean War. In September, the discovery of REM-stage sleep was unleashed upon the world. And, in October, the UNIVAC 1101 made history when it became the very first commercial computer to use random access memory.
But, for some, 1953 was made equally – albeit briefly – historic, memorable, and intriguing for another, very alternative, and possibly even other-worldly, reason.

When it comes to UFOs, no-one can doubt that the research field is filled to the brim with stories that are strange, bizarre and downright mysterious. Others are packed with colorful and eccentric characters. Sometimes they are events that end in death and mysterious disappearance. And, then there are those cases where officialdom takes secret interest. But, how many potentially UFO related events can claim to fall into all of the above categories? Maybe not that many!
There is one, however, that most definitely fits all of the above criteria, and more, too. It’s a story that many people in today’s world of Ufology may not be aware of, others have forgotten, and some fail to realize the potential importance of. It goes likes this…

On the morning of November 10, 1953, a pair of UFO investigators, Karl Hunrath – a radio-technician with a hair-trigger temper and a hatred of women – and Wilbur J. Wilkinson – a plant foreman and a subservient Igor to Hunrath’s Dr. Frankenstein – took to the clear, sunny skies in a small plane rented from Gardina County Airport, California, USA.
The purpose of their flight was to rendezvous at a remote stretch of Golden State desert with fantastically advanced beings from another world that the two had contacted via psychic means and by what were oddly described as “mechanical contractions.” The pair was not seen nor heard of again. And neither was the aircraft. No skeletal, ragged remains turned up. No tell-tale wreckage was found. Ever.
Hunrath and Wilkinson were – for all intents and purposes – gone, vanished. In the immediate aftermath of their disappearance there were whispers within the UFO research community of the day that they were really gone. Like up there gone.
Was it really true? Were Hunrath and Wilkinson kidnapped by hostile, or maybe even friendly, aliens? Might they have been invited to take a one-way trip to another, far-away world by benevolent “Space-Brothers,” as some of their friends and families suspected? Others speculated that the whole affair could be explained away as a mere, tragic accident and nothing else whatsoever.
Indeed, several people offered that nothing stranger than engine-trouble had probably led to terrible disaster and death on the massive, rugged mountains of southern California. Some, however, weren’t quite so sure that the baffling disappearance of Hunrath and Wilkinson was just due to careless pilot-error or mechanical malfunction. But those same souls weren’t looking to E.T. for the answers either.
Why were special-agents of J. Edgar Hoover’s much-feared FBI hot on the trail of the pair in the weeks and months before their disappearance? What of Hunrath’s boast that he had developed a science-fiction-like machine that could disable military aircraft while in the air and bring them fatally crashing to the ground? What did the U.S. Air Force think of that?
What was the nature of the curious relationship that Hunrath had with famed “Contactee” George Adamski, who, behind closed doors, was secretly informing the FBI on Hunrath’s every activity? And what was the real nature of the link between Hunrath and Wilkinson and the mysterious disappearance of an Air Force F-89C Scorpion aircraft and its crew over Lake Superior, two-weeks after the ufological duo made their own definitive vanishing act?
These questions – and many more, too – are ones I’ll be addressing in full in the near future…Stay tuned!

Worlds Biggest Transport Plane Buzzed By UFO, April 2012 (Video)

By Scott Waring

Date of sighting: April 2012
Location of sighting: Russia
It seems that anything that flys is a potential attention getter for any UFO, orb or alien drone. In this video we see a Russian plane, but not just any plane. This is the world's biggest transport plane is the Antonov AN-225. With a cargo capacity of over 250 tons, this plane can haul not just one, but three or four military tanks. That is one big attention getter...hard for this alien drone to ignore. I say drone because it doesn't look big enough for a pilot but who knows how big this species is? Size of the species does not determine it's intelligence.

Saucer UFO Spotted Over Monument Valley (Video)

By Tom Rose

A video on YouTube shows a UFO zooming over the ancient rock formations dotting Monument Valley, California, on a brilliantly clear day. What is it?

The video is a snippet from what looks like a leisurely drive in the area, taking in the sights. As the camera sweeps past a particularly beautiful rock formation on the left side of the road, an unidentified flying object zooms past at high-speed overhead and nearly out of camera range.

There is no commentary on the video, except for an unintelligible phrase as the clip opens, so perhaps the photographer may not have been aware of the UFO caught on tape until it was reviewed later.

The object looks like no known aircraft. It's rounded, silver and shows no lights or markings. It passes at super high-speed, and the video includes two enhanced segments which only help to deepen the mystery rather than explaining it away as a jet or an airplane.

UFO lecture: Mysteries in the skies

By Jennifer K. Bauer
Lewiston Tribune

For 30 years Robert Hastings has traveled the college circuit with an out-of-the-ordinary lecture: UFOs exist, our government knows it and is keeping it secret.
"There's a sort of taboo on the topic of UFOs. If you see something and report it, or even have an interest in the topic, you're viewed as suspicious," said Hastings, 61, who will present "UFOs: The Secret History" at 8 p.m. Tuesday at the University of Idaho Administration Building Auditorium.
