Morning Post 11/08/11 - Asteroid Day!

It is asteroid day! Huge asteroid headed for close encounter with Earth, "It is the first time since 1976 that an object of this size has passed this closely to the Earth." Want to see a picture of the large rock? NASA Captures New Images of Large Asteroid Passing Earth.

Speaking of close encounters, the White House says no evidence of aliens, but leaves the door open with, "noting that many scientists and mathematicians believe that, statistically speaking, odds are high that there is life somewhere among the "trillions and trillions of stars in the universe"".

I 100% agree with that statement and apparently NASA does as well. For some reason they like to take a lot of pictures of space dust doing miraculous things (seems like a good use of their time and taxpayer funds to me). See here and also Shanky's favorite UFO video of all time here (once again they have a great interest in capturing images of space dust moving in ways dust does not here on earth).

Weekend Video Pleasure That Is Out Of This World!

Well, since we know that there are an estimated 100 billion stars in the average galaxy and there are and estimated 100 billion galaxies, then there is a good shot at other intelligent life out there. Now, on the other hand, time travel to get here is impossible on our terms, BUT if there is a civilization that is say one million years ahead of us technologically (not unreasonable in a universe that is 14 billion years old) who's to say they have not figured out a way to get to the blue planet?

I thought most of this footage was pretty good and not seen, so give it a try. Nothing to be afraid of. They blame this one on "thrusters and space dust". Hmmm, so we spend billions for them to go into space and train their cameras on moving space dust. OK, I can believe that.

Have a great weekend. Football and beer for me.




My favorite UFO vid of all time. Watch the object move to the left of the screen and stop. Then you see a flash of light. The object then retreats and something comes up from the earth at an amazing speed right where the object had stopped.



I also thought this one was pretty cool. Not sure if it has been debunked or not. Use the stop button to freeze the vid at the point where it takes off from 30 to 32 seconds.
