And that is yet another thing to bolster the chances of finding critters out there. And what mind-blowing critters they’d be!

Sweeping vistas of alien landscapes, nicely compiled and ‘flown’ around on — set to the fine utterances of the Russian Army Choir.

The Lens, Well Lit by iggymak Browse Fractal Posters The Lens, Well Lit This is another image of ‘The Lens,’ The Lens was encountered recently near an odd, grey glowing plasma cloud in the Third Quadrant of local space. Here the cloud increased dramatically in luminosity for a while, lighting up the object quite nicely. [...]

An entire solar system is being consumed by …

I love Martian dust devils. Really. I do. Don’t know why, really… they’re just cool – in a decidedly alien sort of way.

This is just way too cool not to share.

William Corliss. Photo from the Cryptomundo site.A deep sadness overtook me yesterday when I learned of the passing of William Corliss a month ago, on July 8th, 2011. William Corliss was the great Fortean man who I have always have called the reincarnation of Charles Hoy Fort himself, for his decades of ceaseless, tireless compilation of anomalous reports from around the world and the publication of same.

I’ve been meaning to post this for ages, but I am just well and truly shot, so, here it finally is. And I’ve got another one I’ve been meaning to post for ages, too. Sigh. I used to spend many an hour totally absorbed in reading the discussions on and digesting the wonderful evidence contained [...]

My favorite bit in that collection are the two objects shown landing (as opposed to crashing) between 1:10 and 1:30. I note with excitement that they both land in the very same spot. And that, my friends is why I refer to them as landing.

Will try to write more and sidestep the depression a bit, but until then… this quickie post will have to do. It presents WATT friend and reader (!) LunaCognita’s latest film, an unprecedented proper look at the footage of the lift off of the Lunar Module from the end of the Apollo 11 mission. He pretty much explains what’s what with it below, but, do note that near to and again at the end of this clip there are two unidentified objects seen landing… and they both land… in the very same spot!

Let this custom Speck case and Apollo 15′s notorious Top Secret Shot protect your iPad from the rigors of reality.
… just what did the crew see, anyway? I really want to know, but I doubt any of us ever will.

I’m not at all sure what, but something… something… is just not quite right with our Moon. And there is a seriously strong desire in my heart to find out just what that something is.

This post was initially inspired by my running across an interesting page at Lunar Explorer Italia titled in part, AS 15-83-11218 and the Stephenville UFO: a VERY SMART image-comparison (by Carlo Contu). As you might gather, Mr. Contu noticed that the Apollo image in question and the sportiest image of the infamous Stephenville, Texas UFO are remarkably similar.

Ah, great, here’s the new vid from LunaCognita that looks into more of the footage shot during the Apollo missions. I posted a bit about the trailer for it a little while ago on this blog. [...]

Ah, yes, well, here we have the lovely Luz along with righteous dude Darren both modeling variations of my Thing On The Moon Tshirt, which celebrates what may just be the strangest thing that I have ever clapped eyes on —namely, well, the “thing” — discovered back in the day by none other than the notorious Mr. John Lear.

So, we’re supposed to think that discarded pieces of our spacecraft can just take off on their own, eh?

I am fond of saying that the further from Earth we go, the weirder things get in a general sense. You’ll never convince me of otherwise. Ever. This object is just the latest in the ever-so-wacky universe that lies way, way, “out there.”

About the only thing agreed upon so far is that it isn’t a comet, based solely on composition… it’s assumed to be the result of a high speed asteroidal hit-and-run.

Oh, man, is this good, folks… wicked good, even. Yes, dear readers, once again has LunaCognita managed to blow my socks completely off with this video. Needless to say, I can hardly wait for the full version… There are objects filmed here that I’ve not seen before, and they are spectacular. Where in the heck does LC find this stuff?
