OH UFO!

Without warning the UFO - as big as a C130 Hercules plane - appeared and they had 'never seen anything like it' Photo: GETTY 6:00AM GMT 03 Mar 2011 Comment The crew were returning from a ''low level'' mission in the UK to RAF Laarbruch in Germany when they were flying through Dutch airspace over the North Sea. Without warning the UFO - as big as a C130 Hercules plane - appeared and they had ''never seen anything like it''. In written answers about the incident the pilot said: ''I did not lock the UFO on radar. My navigator and I were so surprised we did not think to do so. ''Indeed, for the majority of the sighting, the UFO was out to one side of my aircraft which would have required me to manoeuvre the aircraft to place within the radar field of view. ''Of more interest, despite repeated radio calls to Dutch Military Radar, the controller insisted that he could not see the UFO. RELATED ARTICLES UFO files: Family caught 3...

TIGA pergerakan objek bercahaya yang berjaya dirakam di kawasan kem askar Sabak Bernam, Selangor baru-baru ini. SHAH ALAM – Seorang kakitangan awam mendakwa berjaya merakam satu cahaya objek terbang yang tidak dikenali (UFO) melintas di kawasan sebuah kem askar di Sabak Bernam ketika bertugas pada Jumaat lalu. Asri Harun Abd. Rahman, 42, yang membuat rondaan ketika itu terkejut setelah melihat sebuah objek bercahaya yang terang seperti lampu limpah menerangi langit kira-kira pukul 5.30 pagi. Dakwanya, selama bertugas di situ sejak 11 tahun lalu, perkara seumpama itu tidak pernah berlaku dan menyifatkan ia merupakan perkara pelik pernah dialami. “Cahaya objek itu bulat, sangat terang dan tidak bergerak ke mana-mana. “Kebetulan, pada waktu itu tiada satu bintang kelihatan dan cahaya itu tidak berkelip-kelip seperti bintang,” katanya ketika dihubungi Kosmo! semalam.

OBJEK terbang tidak dikenali (dalam bulatan) berlegar-legar dekat bandar Agudos, Brazil. SAO PAOLO - Seorang pengguna jalan raya berjaya merakamkan gambar sebuah objek terbang yang tidak dikenali (UFO) berlegar-legar dekat bandar Agudos, Brazil lapor laman Fox News kelmarin. Laman itu memetik laporan stesen televisyen G1 di Brazil yang menyiarkan rakaman UFO tersebut yang berlegar dalam ketinggian yang rendah. Namun, UFO itu hilang buat seketika di celah awan sebelum satu cahaya yang terang muncul dan hilang di tepi awan. Dua bebola cahaya misteri kemudian muncul dan ia bergerak turun ke kawasan belukar. Kemunculan dua bebola cahaya misteri itu hampir sama dengan satu cahaya yang berlegar-legar di atas Kubah Emas di pekarangan Masjid Al-Aqsa di Baitulmuqaddis pada Januari lalu. Imej UFO itu boleh dilihat di laman YouTube. - Agensi

HOUSTON – Amid the flurry of settling in to life onboard the International Space Station, astronauts on the space shuttle Discovery's mission have taken time to contemplate the significance of this shuttle's historic final flight. Discovery arrived at the space station yesterday (Feb. 26) for one last visit before the shuttle is retired from service at the end of this mission. The six astronauts who are flying the orbiter on its final flight are veteran spaceflyers, including several astronauts who have completed long duration stays at the massive orbiting laboratory. So, while Discovery's trip to space station is the orbiter's swan song, it is also something of a homecoming for some of the shuttle's astronauts. "I spent six and a half months here in 2009, and I loved it up here – I didn't want to leave," mission specialist Michael Barratt told reporters today in a press briefing from the station. "For me, the mission has a lot of meaning. It...

Four partial solar and two total lunar eclipses take place in 2011. This 4:2 combination of solar and lunar eclipses in a single year is rather rare with only six cases during the 21st Century (2011, 2029, 2047, 2065, 2076 and 2094). The first and last eclipses always occur in January and December. The dates and types of eclipses during 2011 are as follows. 2011 Jan 04: Partial Solar Eclipse 2011 Jun 01: Partial Solar Eclipse 2011 Jun 15: Total Lunar Eclipse 2011 Jul 01: Partial Solar Eclipse 2011 Nov 25: Partial Solar Eclipse 2011 Dec 10: Total Lunar Eclipse Predictions for the eclipses are summarized in Figures 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , and 6 . World maps show the regions of visibility for each eclipse. The lunar eclipse diagrams also include the path of the Moon through Earth's shadows. Contact times for each principal phase are tabulated along with the magnitudes and geocentric coordinates of the Sun and Moon at greatest eclipse. All times and dates used in this publication are in Un...

6 April 1453 Al-Fateh memulakan kepungan ke atas Konstantinople. 18 April serangan pertama dilancarkan. 21-22 April 70 buah kapal dipindahkan melalui jalan darat. 6-12 Mei serangan seterusnya digandakan untuk menembusi dinding. 29 Mei Al-Fateh berjaya memasuki Konstantinople dari pintu Topkapi. Ini adalah angka-angka tarikh penting dari Profesor Mehmet Maksudoglu, pengkaji sejarah Usmaniah dari sumber asal Usmaniah itu sendiri (Osmanli History 1289-1922 Based on Osmanli Sources, page 72-73). NASA pula mengesahkan 22 Mei 1453 berlakunya kejadian gerhana bulan separa. Saya menulis di read1453.blogspot.com dengan meninggalkan persoalan kepada pembaca : "Petanda buruk dari gerhana bulan adalah suatu kepercayaan tahyul rakyat dan pemerintah Byzantium. Maharaja Konstantinople 11, Paleologos diriwayatkan pernah mengatakan bahawa Kontantinople tidak akan jatuh selagi matahari dan bulan wujud. Demikian besarnya kepercayaan nujum mereka bersandarkan fenomena alam pada bulan dan matahari te...
