Anti-Matter is needed for Star Travel
Star travel has been claimed to be impossible for at least two centuries now. In order for any star-flight project to come to fruition and be guided by human project managers at JPL like any interplanetary project is now, the mission has to have at least a half-assed chance to be completed in a single [...]
Charlie Stross’ Take on Conspiracy Theories
I am a fan of conspiracy theories, let’s face it. I love Government UFOs, MJ-12 Documents, Hollow Earth and Moon theories and on and on. And when it comes to contemporary science-fiction authors, Charlie Stross is one of my favorites. His novel ‘Accelerando’ is one of my favs and is a seminal treatise on the [...]
Dragon Launch!
After many delays and much political trepidation, SpaceX’s Dragon capsule was launched on top of it’s Falcon 9 rocket for NASA’s COTS 2+ test flight to the ISS. The launch occurred at 3:44:38 a.m. in spectacular fashion and of course was instantly politicized and speechified: The second demonstration mission for NASA’s Commercial Orbital Transportation Services [...]
UFOs: History and the Hardware 2
It has been four years since I wrote my popular blog post UFOs, history and the hardware and while I have researched other subjects over that time, researching UFOs and what they might be comes back into my ken . I guess what is your first love is always your first love, no matter what. During that [...]
The U.S. Navy and UFO Files
In 1952 the United States was inundated with UFO sightings comparable to an all out invasion worthy of any movie that came out at the time. Although most UFO files have since been released in the world (mostly from European countries and South America), none at all have been released from the U.S. Navy. In [...]
Welcome to Immortality
As I was trolling across the Innertubes this morning, I came across a story that was almost like one of my St. John Lamont short stories. Only instead of waking up to Lucifer, imagine waking up to lawyers. Almost the same thing I guess. A science fiction story about what you see when you die. [...]
“More. Always more…”
The above is a direct quote from Billy Cox in a comment he made to another commenter in his blog he posted last Thursday concerning a posting he made about Anderson Cooper’s April 24th show on UFOs. Now when it comes to UFOs and the mainstream media, no matter how good some amounts of physical [...]
Does Present NASA Funding Mean the End of Human Space Exploration?
Much caterwalling about NASA funding for the manned space program has been raised lately. Especially since the end of the Shuttle Program, the right-wing propaganda mill has had its lie machine in high gear blaming the Obama Administration for the demise. And never mind that the previous Bush 2 Administration started the end of the [...]
The Search for ET and the Discovery of Earth-type Planets
From Science World: The recent discovery of Earth-like planets has changed the way scientists look for life on other planets, according to the scientist who inspired Jodie Foster’s character in “Contact,” a 1997 film about the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence. Astronomer Dr. Jill Tarter, director of the SETI Institute’s Center for SETI Research in California, [...]
Geoengineering: Is it possible?
Global Warming, whether one considers it caused primarily by humans, or as a natural process determined by cyclical solar activity, is potentially a huge problem for the human race regardless of its cause. One possible cure for GW is geoengineering. What is geoengineering you ask? Well, read this post from The New Yorker: Late in [...]
