Even though there have been widespread cases of alien encounters, aliens have never come out and proved their existence to the public. We have never seen UFOs land in important places on Earth. This is because they chose covert methods to infiltrate Earth rather than just revealing their true identity. Aliens live among humans and go unnoticed; some of them are very similar to humans, and some of them even are shape-shifters. Some aliens even have the ability to take over human bodies or share our thoughts to direct our conduct. Lastly, there are people who are aware of the…

As revealed by recent documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, a classified artificial intelligence system called Sentient can “see and detect” UFOs. Sentient – The AI System To Detect UFOs In 2021, a highly classified system within the US National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) detected what it described as a small (<10m) “tic tac” shaped object that “did not match the visual signature of typical aircraft detections’. The artificial intelligence (AI) system that observed this object is called Sentient. Its details and features remain highly classified, and what little is known sounds like something you’d see in a dystopian sci-fi movie. « Sentient is (or…

When Nature feels like painting… Eucalyptus deglupta is commonly known as the Rainbow Eucalyptus because of its unique way of shedding its bark. Once shed, the inner bark that is revealed is bright green, but eventually matures to blue, purple, orange, and eventually maroon. The rainbow eucalyptus does not shed its bark all at once, but in sections throughout the year, allowing for the amazing rainbow effect. Also known as ‘Mindanao gum’, or ‘rainbow gum’, this beautiful tree is native to the Philippines, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. It is the only Eucalyptus species that usually lives in rain forest –…

A 36-foot-long whale (yes, a whale) was recently discovered in Brazil’s remote jungle, miles from its natural habitat, when scavenging vultures alerted local officials with their screeching. Image credit: Bicho D’agua Institute/Facebook It’s no news that the Amazon rainforest teems with life, but one recent discovery left even seasoned wildlife experts and biologists baffled. In the undergrowth of Brazil’s Marajó Island, they found nothing less than the carcass of a 10-ton humpback whale. Preliminary theories suggest that the whale washed ashore during a storm or that it was already dead when rising tides carried it on land. However, scientists are…

Sean Kirkpatrick, the chief Ufologist of the Pentagon and the director of AARO, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, which has been formulated by the US military lately only asserted that: “There is a possibility that extraterrestrial motherships and smaller probes may be visiting the planets of the solar system.” Sean Kirkpatrick. Before being appointed to his current position at AARO, Dr. Kirkpatrick held the position of chief scientist at the Missile and Space Intelligence Center of the Defense Intelligence Agency. Sean Kirkpatrick It is evident that over the years, several anomalies have been witnessed in the sky next to aircraft…

A video of a strange black Cube Shaped UFO was filmed this week on Tuesday at an unspecified location in Texas, USA. Black Cube Shaped UFO Over Texas According to the unnamed author of the video, he and his wife looked up at the sky as a military plane that looked like an F-111 bomber flew west to east right over their house. They regarded this incident as very unusual since military aircraft had previously very rarely appeared in their area. But they were even more confused when, literally “seconds later” after the bomber’s passage, a dark object appeared in the…

This story could be mistaken for an April Fool’s joke and safely ignored on this basis, but everything happened a few days ago, at the end of March, and so far no one has admitted that it was just a joke. It all started with the fact that a few days ago in the town of Huarina, La Paz province, in Bolivia, several people at once said that they had seen a UFO in the sky, shining with green light. Then reports began to come in from the same area that people saw very small humanoid creatures, presumably aliens, who were “running around the village.”…

Most edible mushrooms are relatively small, but in West Africa as well as Zambia, there’s one particularly enormous species that outgrows all the rest of them. Termitomyces titanicus. A rather fitting name for such a huge species. Image credit: Danny Newman In Zambia, where mushroom-gathering is an important part of life, the Termitomyces titanicus is especially held in high regard. While the largest fungus (and organism) in the world is of the genus Armillaria and is currently consuming Oregon on 1,000 hectares, Termitomyces titanicus is the world’s largest edible mushroom, with a cap that can measure a little more than three feet (one meter) across. Interestingly, this giant…

This nightmarish parasitic isopod lives in the mouth of fish, replacing their tongues and feasting on their blood. While we at Earthly Mission have previously covered some truly creepy marine creatures, such as the Atlantic wolffish, or the sarcastic fringehead, the tongue-eating louse may top it all off when it comes to creepiness. The Cymothoa exigua, or the tongue-eating louse, is an isopod (a group of animals, which also includes crabs and shrimp) that spends most of its life inside the mouths of different fish. They are known to remove the tongue, and replace it with themselves. In fact, the tongue-eating louse is…

Stretching from Arctic to the southeast coast of the island of Newfoundland, Iceberg Alley is the perfect spot for iceberg viewing – even from your kitchen window, while cooking the local staple ‘Jiggs dinner’. If you live in Canada’s Iceberg Alley, you will never be short of icebergs to view. And in the spring, when the sea ice around them melts, they’ll look even more spectacular. The icebergs come from even further up north, mostly from Greenland, where chunks of glaciers tend to break off during the spring and summer. Ocean currents then take them from north to south, along…

New research shows that the destructive merging of a star and a planet expels huge amounts of gas, as shown in this artist’s impression. Credit: K. Miller/R. Hurt (Caltech/IPAC), CC BY-ND For the first time, astronomers have captured images that show a star consuming one of its planets. The star, named ZTF SLRN-2020, is located in the Milky Way galaxy, in the constellation Aquila. As the star swallowed its planet, the star brightened to 100 times its normal level, allowing the 26-person team of astronomers I worked with to detect this event as it happened. I am a theoretical astrophysicist, and I developed…

An artist’s illustration of a star being sucked into a black hole — just one theory for what caused the largest explosion astronomers have observed. Astronomers said on Friday they have identified the “largest” cosmic explosion ever observed, a fireball 100 times the size of our Solar System that suddenly began blazing in the distant universe more than three years ago. While the astronomers offered what they think is the most likely explanation for the explosion, they emphasized that more research was needed to understand the puzzling phenomenon. The explosion, called AT2021lwx, is not the brightest flash ever observed in the universe. That…

Fast radio bursts—intense, milliseconds-long flashes of radio energy from outer space—have puzzled astronomers since they were first spotted in 2007. A single burst can emit as much energy in its brief life as the Sun does in a few days. The great majority of the short-lived pulses originate outside our Milky Way galaxy. We don’t know what produces most of them, or how. In new research published in Science, we observed a repeating fast radio burst for more than a year and discovered signs it is surrounded by a strong but highly changeable magnetic field. Our results suggest the source of this cosmic explosion may be…

Credit: NASA / ESA / P Kelly How did we get here? Where are we going? And how long will it take? These questions are as old as humanity itself, and, if they’ve already been asked by other species elsewhere in the universe, potentially very much older than that. They are also some of the fundamental questions we are trying to answer in the study of the universe, called cosmology. One…

Crazy to have the services of Lionel Messi, Saudi Arabia has offered to pay the Argentine superstar 1 billion euros for 2 seasons to expect him to join Cristiano Ronaldo to compete in this country’s national championship. “A source close to Saudi Arabia has revealed that this will be a super special contract. Lionel Messi should continue his football career in this oil country next season. The 2022 World Champion has but there are still a few details to be finalized,” AFP news agency said. Accordingly, Al-Hilal is Messi’s upcoming destination. This team has offered a two-year contract with an optional third season, a…

Whenever Lionel Messi touched the ball during Paris Saint-Germain’s 5-0 win over AC Ajaccio on Saturday night at the Parc des Princes, the Argentine heard whistles and applause.  Messi had been initially suspended for two weeks after an unauthorized trip to Saudi Arabia; however, PSG reduced the suspension after the veteran goal scorer issued a public apology.  Nonetheless, it wasn’t enough for some supporters who whistled at Messi during the contest. French football pundit Bixente Lizarazu slammed the supporters that partook in the heckling of Messi.  “I’m ashamed of the way we treat Messi,” Lizarazu said on Telefoot Sunday (h/t Canal…

Barcelona president Joan Laporta says he will do everything in his power to bring Lionel Messi back this summer. Messi is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain in the summer when his contract expires, and is still considering his next move. A Barcelona homecoming or a big money move to Saudi Arabia are the leading options. However, Barcelona’s financial situation means a lot will have to come into place for a move to materialise. The Catalan giants must lower their wage bill by a reported £180m if they are to make any significant signings. Barcelona are hoping to bring Lionel Messi back with the player set to leave PSG…

Crystals are used by Mauricio Bentez to make unique pieces for some of the biggest names in the world. Colombian artist Mauricio Bentez tells AS Colombia, “I am a dreamer, an entrepreneur who has been in the process for 20 years.” “I am empirical since I did not pursue a certain job in study. Because the mind creates everything, it is merely a ᴍᴇɴᴛᴀʟ enterprise. Bentez rose to ꜰᴀᴍᴇ in the art world via a conventional route and now does paintings specifically for some of the greatest names in sports. The Colombian artist uses glass and crystals to create paintings…

The Sawtooth handcrafted log house, a full scribe log home from Caribou Creek, will make you fall in love. Full scribe style, also known as Swedish Cope or Scandinavian full-scribe, is a construction method that craftsmen use to transfer the contours from the lower log onto the upper one. Then, they cut the upper log to fit snugly. To prevent bugs from entering your log home, a layer is added to the lateral joints of the logs as they are being assembled. This style does not require chinking and fits together very tightly. Logs will settle to adjust to their…

Cathy Scott spends most of her time writing crime novels. She also loves spending time with her three long-haired Chihuahuas, which she rescued. She managed to find the time to restore a building which was originally built as a shelter for gold miners from the Cuyamaca Mountains of San Diego County. After being abandoned for over 50 year, she brought the 216 sq. foot home back to life. It is now better than ever. The original plans for the home were taken from 1920’s Sears and Roebucks house kit plans. This tiny house, which has been fully renovated, offers everything…

In the midst of uncertainty surrounding the future of Neymar and Barcelona-linked Lionel Messi, the name of Kylian Mbappe has once again come up in Real Madrid circles, with recent reports suggesting that the club could go after the Frenchman in the coming summer. A recent report from MARCA (h/t Madrid Xtra) has offered an update on Real Madrid’s supposed pursuit of Kylian Mbappe. It clarifies that Real Madrid have no intention of going after Mbappe at the end of the season, despite the ongoing situation that is developing at PSG this summer. The club do not deny the talent possessed by the…
