Exploring Area 51 in USA

Huge UFO seen ‘FLYING OUT OF LAKE’ sparks claims US have secret underwater PLANE

UFO investigators have been unable to explain reports of a bizarre object allegedly seen flying out of a lake.

 

The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) investigated reports that a triangular-shaped UFO was seen emerging from Green Bay near Little Suamico, in Wisconsin, before flying off.

US-based MUFON received a testimony from a witness to the alleged event.

The object was said to be 100 to 150 feet in length and was seen at 2.10am local time on November 28.

Green Bay is a sub-basin of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of the Fox River.

The case was investigated by Susan Birttnen of Wisconsin MUFON, but closed as an "unknown sighting".

In a report, Ms Birttnen wrote: "He reports they witnessed a triangular-shaped object fly out of the water of Green Bay, traveling at approximately 35 knots.

"It was so close that they could hear a muffled jet sound. As it came out of the water it turned on its side as it traveled west and gained elevation.

"Based on the evidence and the data provided by the witness, I conclude that this case is in the unknown category.”

The witness, who has not been named by MUFON, the world's biggest organisation dedicated to UFO research, provided a description of the object.

They said: “The colour was dark and it had blue flashing lights.

“The elevation was at 500 feet and the distance was less than 1,000 feet. The side of the triangle was between 100 to 150 feet.”

The witness has a theory that it may have been a top secret craft developed and operated by the US Air Force.

Conspiracy theorists claim the US has secret so-called "black projects" based in classified air bases like Area 51 in Nevada where secret technology is developed.

Some even believe that they use alleged recovered flying saucers to devise new spy craft technologies.

The witness added: "I believe they are investigating the saucers and the orbs in some joint effort."

5 Famous & Deadly Swords & Their History

5.  Tomoyuki Yamashita’s Sword

 Tomoyuki Yamashita was a general of the Japanese Imperial Army during World War II.  He became known during the war after conquering the British colonies of Malaya and Singapore, ultimately earning the nickname “The Tiger of Malaya.”  After the end of World War II, Yamashita was tried for war crimes relating to the Manila Massacre and many other atrocities in the Philippines and Singapore.  It was a controversial trial that ended with a death sentence for Tomoyuki Yamashita.  The case changed the United States rules in regards to command responsibility for war crimes, creating a law known as the Yamashita Standard.

4.  Curved Saber of San Martin

 José de San Martín was a famous Argentine general that lived from 1778-1850.  He was the primary leader of the southern part of South America’s struggle for independence from Spain.  San Martín is a South American hero and the 1st Protector of Perú.  Under the lead of San Martín, Peruvian independence was officially declared on July 28, 1821.  In the state of Argentina, the Order of the Liberator General San Martin is the highest decoration given out.

One of the most cherished possessions of José de San Martín was a curved sword that he purchased in London.  San Martín admired the saber’s curved blade and felt that the weapon was maneuverable and ideal for battle.  For this reason, he armed his cavalries of granaderos with similar weapons, which he deemed important for charge attacks.  The curved sword stayed with San Martín until his death and was then passed down to the General de la Republica Argentina, Don Juan Manuel de Rosas.



In his will San Martín referred to the sword as “The saber that has accompanied me throughout the War of Independence of South America.”  In 1896 the weapon was sent to the National Historical Museum in Buenos Aires where it remains today.  In the 1960s the sword was stolen on two separate occasions and this caused museum operators to build a screened gazebo to protect the artifact.

5.  Napoleon’s Sword

In 1799, Napoleon Bonaparte became the military and political leader of France after staging a coup d’état.  Five years later the French Senate proclaimed him emperor.  In the first decade of the 19th century Napoleon and the French Empire were engaged in conflict and war with every major European power.  Ultimately, a series of victories gave the French a dominant position in continental Europe, but as history would later repeat itself, in 1812 the French began their invasion of Russia.  The decision to invade Russia marked the turning point in the fortune of Napoleon.  In 1814, the Sixth Coalition invaded France and Napoleon was captured and exiled to the island of Elba.  He would escape, but ultimately died in confinement on the island of Saint Helena.  Historians regard Napoleon as a military genius and a man who made strong contributions to the operational art of war.

On the battlefield Napoleon carried a pistol and a sword.  He owned a large collection of arms and artillery.  His weapons were one of a kind and included the best materials.  In the summer of 2007, a gold-encrusted sword that once belonged to Napoleon was auctioned off in France for more than $6.4 million dollars.  The sword was used by Napoleon in battle.  In the early 1800s, Napoleon presented the weapon to his brother as a wedding gift.  The sword was passed down from generation to generation, never leaving the Bonaparte family.  In 1978, the sword was declared a national treasure in France and the winner of the auction was not identified.

2.  Sword of Mercy

The Sword of Mercy is a famous weapon that once belonged to Edward the Confessor.  Edward the Confessor was one of the last Anglo-Saxon kings of England before the Norman Conquest of 1066.  He ruled from 1042 to 1066 and his reign has been characterized by the crumbling disorganization of royal power in England.  Shortly after Edward the Confessor’s death, the Normans began to expand into England, led by the infamous William the Conqueror.

The Sword of Mercy has a broken blade, which is cut off short and square.  In 1236, the weapon was given the name curtana and has since been used for royal ceremonies.  In ancient times it was a privilege to bear this sword before the king.  It was considered a merciful gesture.  The story surrounding the breaking of the weapon is unknown, but mythological history indicates that the tip was broken off by an angel to prevent a wrongful killing.

The Sword of Mercy is part of the Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom and is one of only five swords used during the coronation of the British monarch.  The weapon is rare and is one of only a small number of swords to survive the reign of Oliver Cromwell.  Cromwell is known for ordering the melting down of ancient artifacts for scrap gold and metal.  During the British coronation, the Sword of Mercy is wielded as the monarch bestows knighthood upon the recipient of honor.

1.  Joyeuse 

Charlemagne is a man that was born circa 742.  He is one of the greatest rulers in world history and became King of the Franks in 768.  In 800 he was named Emperor of the Romans, a position that he held for the remainder of his life.  In the Holy Roman Empire he was known as Charles I and was the first Holy Roman Emperor.  During Charlemagne’s lifetime he expanded the Frankish kingdom into an empire, which covered much of Western and Central Europe.  Charlemagne is regarded as the founding father of both the French and German monarchies, as well as the father of Europe.

Joyeuse is the name of Charlemagne’s personal sword.  Today, there are two swords attributed to Joyeuse.  One is a saber that is kept in the Weltliche Schatzkammer in Vienna, while the other is housed at the Louvre in France.  The blade on display at the Louvre claims to be partially built from Charlemagne’s original sword.  The sword is made of parts from different centuries, so it can be hard to positively identify the weapon as Joyeuse.  The hilt of the sword indicates a manufactory date around the time of Charlemagne.  The heavily sculpted gold pommel is made in two halves and the long gold grip was once decorated with diamonds.

Charlemagne’s sword appears in many legends and historical documents.  Bulfinch’s Mythology described Charlemagne using Joyeuse to behead the Saracen commander Corsuble as well as to knight his friend Ogier the Dane.  After the death of Charlemagne, the sword was said to have been contrarily held by the Saint Denis Basilica and it was later taken to the Louvre after being carried at a Coronation processional for French kings.
 
 

Top 10 Over-The-Counter Drugs That Will Get You Higher Than Marijuana

10. Diethyl Ether

Diethyl Ether, more commonly just called Ether, is mainly used medically, as an anesthetic. However, it also has a long history of recreational use. In the late nineteenth century, it was used regularly in Ireland, Russia, France, Norway, the United States and elsewhere. The effect of ether was similar to alcohol, but it was cheaper, and allowed someone to sober up quicker, making it popular among those who didn’t have much money.

Ether is highly flammable however, and can be quite dangerous; it should be treated with great care. While Diethyl Ether is not illegal in the United States, and is fairly easy to obtain if you put in the effort, some suppliers are careful who they sell it to, mainly selling to universities or laboratories. The reason for this is because the drug is often used to assist in the creation of several illegal drugs, such as LS

9. Dextromethorphan (Robitussin)

Codeine was originally the main active ingredient used for suppressing coughs; however, Codeine is a powerfully addictive substance. Dextromethorpan, more commonly known as DXM, was created to be a non-addictive replacement to Codeine. While DXM is not addictive, most cough syrups contain other ingredients, such as Acetaminophen or Guaifenesin, which are extremely dangerous when taken in large amounts.


Recreationally, DXM can have very powerful effects, ranging from euphoria, elevated mood, dissociation, dream-like states, and increased awareness.Some other effects which may or may not be considered good, depending on the person, include disorientation, confusion, altered perception of time, decreased sexual functioning, and hallucinations. Many people consider the state to being drunk and stoned at the same time, and higher doses can greatly impair memory, language and judgment. Using this drug is often referred to as “robo-tripping”

8. Doxylamine (Unisom)

Doxylamine, which often goes under the trade name Unisom, is an antihistamine. Normally, Doxylamine is used to treat allergies, and in some cases for its sedative effects, as a means to treat insomnia. It is sometimes mixed with Acetaminophen or Codeine, to be used as an analgesic. While it has perfectly valid uses and can be bought at any grocery store, it is abused occasionally by teens looking for a cheap legal high. Teenagers will abuse Doxylamine for its hallucinogenic properties, but it also makes them agitated and confused. It actually doesn’t sound exactly like a very fun high, but people try all kinds of stupid things. In large doses, it can be quite dangerous, resulting in prolonged agitation, seizures, and the occasional coma.

7. Tramadol

Tramadol is not an opioid; however, it affects the brain in a very similar way. It acts as an analgesic, and has opiate agonist activity, which gives people a feeling similar to opioids, though it is not as strong. It is often abused by recovering addicts, or people looking for a more easily-obtainable high similar to heroin, or other synthetic opioids such as Vicodin.


Tramadol enjoys a very unique legal status. While it is considered a prescription drug, it is not federally scheduled, and has only been scheduled in a few US states. What this means is that, while one is supposed to have a prescription to purchase Tramadol, it is perfectly legal to posses the drug without a prescription in most of the United States.

6. Kava

Kava is an herb that comes from the Pacific Islands, where the islanders have been using it medicinally for a very long time. They crush the herb and use it to make a tea-like beverage, which is supposed to be relaxing, but also consumed as part of tradition among the islanders. Apart from its relaxing effects, or its use in tribal medicine, it has recently developed some popularity in the Western world, where it is still very legal to buy and use. While low-to-moderate doses of Kava give one a sense of euphoria, relaxation, or general well-being, higher doses can cause hallucinations. It is also believed by scientists that chronic use can cause yellow skin discoloration, drowsiness, ataxia, liver damage, and malnutrition, none of which sound very fun at all.

5. Kratom

Kratom, referred to in scientific literature as Mitragyna Speciosa, is a plant native to Southeast Asia. This plant is from the same family as coffee, and is often used medicinally to relieve pain. However, it has gained recent popularity in the United States for its psychoactive properties. It is currently unregulated, and can easily be bought at online or at certain “herbal supplement” stores. The powder or leaves are usually ingested in a tea-like preparation, or smoked; sometimes it is also ingested orally. A few grams of this substance can give someone a high for two to three hours. While it was originally used medicinally, it has been banned in its native Thailand, due to the abuse of the plant. Watch out, this plant is considered highly addictive.

4. Diphenhydramine (Benadryl)

Diphenhydramine usually goes by the trade name Benadryl; it is marketed to deal mainly with allergies, but is also often used as a sedative when people are having trouble sleeping.  It has some popularity among recreational drug users, due to its affect as a deliriant. When recreational users take a high dose, they can expect such symptoms as drowsiness, fatigue, disturbed coordination, dizziness, blurred vision, confusion, and hallucinations, which are somehow considered positive things by recreational users.

The drug is quite dangerous in very high doses, especially if done regularly. There are many, much worse, side effects, such as fever, hypotension, seizures, convulsions, atheotosis, gastrointestinal symptoms, deep coma, and death. If you are just taking one occasionally for its intended use you should be fine, but regular abuse of this drug is very bad for your heart.

3. Dimenhydrinate (Dramamine)

Dimenhydrinate is a drug that most of you probably know as Dramamine, and is mainly used to combat motion sickness. It is also a deliriant, and is popular among recreational drug users for the audio and visual hallucinations that it provides in high doses. Setting it apart from its cousin Diphenhydramine, it is reported to also have a euphoric effect, along with the hallucinations.  It is not only abused by recreational users, but also by psychiatric patients, though in their case it is for self-treating anxiety and the like, not for recreation. Like Diphenhydramine, this drug is not good for you in large doses, and can be very bad for the long-term health of your GI tract and heart.

  

2. Propylhexedrine (Benzedrex)

Propylhexedrine is the active drug in a nasal spray called Benzedrex, and it originally replaced amphetamine sulfate as the active ingredient years back due to abuse. Unfortunately, Propylhexedrine is also capable of abuse. Recreational users have been known to use some sort of extraction process to gain crystals from it, and it has hence earned the nickname “stove top speed,” due to the effect that it has on people.

The drug is contained in a cotton rod inside the nasal inhaler, and some users simply eat the cotton rod instead of bothering with extraction. It then gives them a high similar to weak amphetamines. It is important to note, however, that this is very much a situation of “don’t try this at home.” This drug can be very dangerous; many cases of reported use involved psychosis, myocardial infarction, pulmonary, vascular disease, pulmonary hypertension, and sudden death. Many of these dangerous side effects are likely caused by the fact that the drug is a vasoconstrictor, and greatly raises your blood pressure.

1. Oxymetazoline (Afrin)

Oxymetazoline is a drug used in a widely-used commercial nasal spray called Afrin. It does not have a particularly strong high, and is instead more likely to cause psychosis in those who use it, some of whom have reported recurring hallucinations. What makes this drug noteworthy is just how addicting it is. Doctors have found that those hooked on it simply cannot function without the drug. The packaging for Afrin tells you not to use the drug for more than a few days at a time; the reason for this is that, if used for too long, it actually causes the inner part of the nose to swell up. In essence, using it too much defeats the purpose of decongesting your nose, and makes you constantly reliant on more nasal spray, so that you can breathe. Don’t pick up this habit, unless you want nasal inhalers scattered all over your home, car, and workspace.

TOP 10 Unsolved Mysteries That Still Need Answers In 2017

10-WTF space junk: What was that debris?

A group of scientists in a plane caught sight of a mysterious piece of space junk right as it burned up in Earth's atmosphere above the Indian Ocean in November.

NASA and other space agencies around the world monitor a large percentage of the millions of bits of space debris that orbit the planet, and researchers had been expecting the object — appropriately named WT1190F — to re-enter Earth's atmosphere when it was first spotted in October.

But nearly two months later, they still aren’t sure what the object actually was. They do have some ideas. The leading theory is that it’s the second stage of a rocket — though they have no idea which rocke

9-Wanted woman: Where is Hayat Boumeddiene?

The 26-year-old is suspected of helping plan the deadly attacks in Paris between Jan. 7 and 9 that targeted the offices of Charlie Hebdo, a kosher market and a police officer. She was the common-law wife of Amedy Coulibaly, one of the three attackers, but the level of her involvement remains unclear.

What we do know is that the three attackers were killed, and Boumeddiene escaped. Authorities believe she left Paris just before the attacks, traveled to Turkey and then crossed over into Syria. A month later, ISIS propaganda magazine Dabiq published an alleged interview with Boumeddiene, saying she is now with the group in Syria.

Today, Boumeddiene is one of the most wanted criminals on the planet.

8-8,000-year-old puzzle: What are these patterns in remote Kazakhstan?

Some blame aliens. Others say Nazis were behind it. But the mysterious earthworks, known as the Steppe Geoglyphs, are thousands of years in the making.

Scattered throughout remote parts of Kazakhstan and only visible from high above, their patterns vary in shapes — from giant rings to swastikas.

There are nearly 300 of these strange works, the oldest of which was constructed at least 8,000 years ago. And no one, including scores of scientists who have studied them, really knows why they’re there. The theory is that they came from an ancient settlement.

Dmitriy Dey, who first spotted them in 2007 on Google Earth — he was looking for ancient pyramids at the time — thinks they may have been built as “horizontal observatories to track the movements of the rising sun,” according to a New York Times interview in October.

The ancient relics are so puzzling that NASA is now working to unravel the mystery. From 430 miles above the Earth, the space agency captured some of the clearest images, which were released in late 2015.

7-SADDLE RIDGE GOLD

Buried for more than a century, 1,400 gold coins — worth an estimated $10 million — were unearthed in a California backyard in 2014. The middle-aged California couple who discovered the eight decaying tin cans full of gold remain anonymous.

Where did the gold come from?

The tale grew even more curious as we discovered that $30,000 worth of similar gold coins — that amount would be in the millions in today's dollars — had been stolen from the U.S. Mint in San Francisco in 1901. Soon we were all playing a game of whodunit
.
Former San Francisco Mint clerk Walter N. Dimmick was charged with that theft, but, by the prosecution’s own admission, he was convicted on wholly circumstantial evidence. Despite the fact that the Secret Service searched all over California for those coins, they were never found.

But maybe that couple living in Northern California finally did.

6-Ghost boats: Who is sending ships filled with corpses to Japan?

Mysterious "ghost boats" — wrecked wooden ships with decaying corpses on board — are washing up on the shores of Japan.

Nearly a dozen boats carrying decomposing bodies were found off the country's northwestern coast in just one month, the coast guard said in December. The first boat was found in October, and in November officials discovered 10 bodies in three boats at Ishikawa prefecture. Later, they found another boat with six skulls and a body that was nearly intact.

Several signs point to North Korea. Most of the boats carried equipment and signs written in Korean, and one was had a scrap of cloth resembling a torn bit of the North Korean flag. However, authorities have not been able to confirm their origin or why the people on board perished.

More than 30 boats were found in 2015. There were 65 the year before and 80 in 2013.

5-Alien ocean: Is there life on Saturn's moon?

In October, NASA's Cassini spacecraft, which has been exploring Saturn since 2004, got closer than ever to an extraterrestrial ocean on Enceladus, one of the planet's 62 moons. During its daring dive into an icy plume erupting from the moon's south pole, Cassini sampled the spray to figure out what's lurking beneath the surface.

"Enceladus is not just an ocean world. It's a world that might provide a habitable environment for life as we know it," Cassini program scientist Curt Niebur said at the time.

But even if the ocean material is chock-full of little lifeforms, Cassini won't know it. The spacecraft wasn't built to actually detect life. Its instruments don't have the ability to parse out sure signs, like DNA, from the icy spray.

Instead, scientists are hoping to learn more about the pH balance and molecular composition of the water. NASA is still analyzing the data from that October flyby. In the best-case scenario, the spacecraft might be able to determine if the small moon's ocean could be habitable.

Cassini's mission will end when it runs out of fuel sometime in 2017. Until then, the probe will be making its final observations of many of Saturn's moons.

4-Catastrophic collapse: What killed 120,000 antelopes in just a few days?

In a span of less than two weeks in May, there was a widespread die-off of critically endangered saiga antelope throughout central Kazakhstan. The United Nations reported that more than 120,000 of the animals — that's more than a third of the global population — died from mid-May through the end of the month.

It's the largest die-off event of the species ever recorded.

While scientists have not yet pinpointed the cause of the deaths, a preliminary analysis showed that a combination of environmental and biological factors were involved, as mainly mothers and calves were among the dead. Two pathogens — one known as Pasteurella and the other as Clostridia — contributed to the rapid and widespread die-off. However, this discovery fails to solve the mystery.

One possible suspect in the die-off event is rocket fuel from decades of launches from facilities in central Kazakhstan. Currently, Russia launches crewed and uncrewed missions to the International Space Station from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

3-Still missing: What happened to MH370?

A tiny piece of the puzzle that is Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 washed up on Reunion island in the Indian Ocean in July. Investigators believe the piece of debris was a flaperon that came from the missing plane.

Though we finally have a piece of tangible evidence, we still have no real answers as to what happened after MH370 took off from Kuala Lumpur in March 2014 and vanished into the night. The mere fact that a modern airliner could simply disappear has led to several conspiracy theories. Was it hijacked? Did it catch fire and crash? Did Putin orchestrate its capture?

Nearly two years have passed since the plane went missing and we’re no closer to cracking the case. Maybe 2017 will shine more light on one of the modern world’s biggest aviation mysteries.

2-DUSTWUN: Why did Bowe Bergdahl walk away?

Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was captured by the Taliban in 2009 and held prisoner for five years, the longest any soldier has been kept as a POW since the Vietnam War. In 2014, the U.S. made a deal with the Taliban and Bergdahl was released in a prisoner swap.

But what should have been a joyous homecoming quickly turned dark after it was revealed that Bergdahl walked off his base in Afghanistan. He was labeled as a deserter, and he vanished from the public eye. America didn't see or hear from him for over a year.

Until this December.

The popular podcast Serial debuted its second season with a focus on Bergdahl’s disappearance. His side of the story is told through hours of conversations he's been having with filmmaker Mark Boal (of Zero Dark Thirty). The Army has since announced that Bergdahl will be court-martialed, meaning that the man who spent half a decade with the Taliban could spend even more time behind bars on American soil.

But the question remains: Is Bergdahl a deserter? A whistleblower? Or somewhere in between?

1-SIBERIAN SINKHOLES


A 115-foot hole was discovered in Siberia's Yamal peninsula — a name that means "end of the world" in the language of the area's indigenous inhabitants — after an unexplained explosion in July. Two other mysterious sinkholes popped up in Russia's north shortly after. Scientists believe gas explosions beneath the surface caused the sinkholes, but they haven't been able to confirm that theory.

In November, a team of scientists, a medic and a professional climber plunged into the sinkhole to learn more about it, but the cause of the deep holes is still unknown.
