Joe Simonton Alien Encounter, Aliens Cook Pancakes!

This has got to be one of the most intriguing alien encounter stories I've heard yet. One morning way back in April of 1961, in Eagle River Wisconson, resident, Joe Simonton, saw a bright silvery UFO come straight down and hover over his lawn. He claims a hatch on the UFO opened and out popped a little alien man gesturing in a way that Mr. Simonton believed was a request for water as the alien held out a jug with this gesture. Simonton took the jug, filled it with water and gave it back to the alien. He then saw another alien aboard the ship, frying on some sort of grill! When Simonton pointed at the grill hoping to start a dialog, the aliens still did not speak, but handed him one of the, what appeared to be pancakes! To which Simonton shows to the cameras in the video below. After this, the alien got back inside the ship, closed up the hatches and the UFO hovered straight up about 20 feet, tilted at a 45-degree angle and shot off out of sight within 2 seconds. The whole incident lasted about 5 minutes. Simonton turned the pancakes over to the Airforce, who then had the American FDA analyze them. The pancakes turned out to be 100% pure buckwheat pancakes.

I totally believe this story. If anything, it makes more Earthly sense then other alien and UFO encounters. Just like those times that you have to stop by a convenience store to pick up a few things for the road, these aliens did the same only instead of a convenience store, it was Joe Simonton's house.

Alien Ex Votos: Close In Counters In Mexico

Ex votos, also known as retablo, lamina or votive paintings, came to Mexico via Spain by Franciscan monks. They are like illustrated Thank You cards to the Virgin Mary and other Catholic saints thanking the saints for a time in which they helped protect their faithful believers. Ex votos tell real life stories of the people that lived through what they believed to be miracles. Some ex votos are almost like mini illustrated episodes of Paranormal Witness. I particularly enjoy the art of ex votos, but what really caught my attention is how many ex votos tell stories of extraterrestrials and UFO encounters! I've collected a few ex votos that do so and translated them as best I could. Some are hard to read, but close encounters in Mexico seem to be very common. 

"At night I was very thirsty and I went to the kitchen for a glass of water. But, to my horror, I saw that there were martians eating at the table in my kitchen and my dog, who is a good guardian, looked like he was hypnotized or paralyzed. I'm thankful to the Virgin of Zapopan because the extraterrestrials didn't see me and I could escape safe and sound until they left. " 

" On the road to Tepoztlan we encountered a group of green martians who wanted to detain us, but thanks to the Virgin of Gaudalupe, we escaped without them grabbing us. Oct. 16, 1967"

"When we were going to church, Dorotea and I felt like something was following us and we saw that it was some martians. We were very frightened, and we ran to the church and started to pray that nothing would happen to us. Leaving the church we saw that the martians had left and only had taken the birds in the corral of the town. We give thanks to the Virgin of San Juan for protecting us and the other people. "

"Juaquin Ramirez took the animals to drink water at the lake and then suddenly a UFO appeared and took away a cow that belonged to his friend. He gives infante thanks to the son of Atocha for believing him that he wasn't the one that took the cow away or make him pay for the cow."

"When we returned to the city in the morning after the (? hard to read, something the parrots?), my family and I saw a UFO that took all of the in habitants of the city. We gave thanks to the Virgin of Zapopen because the UFO had come and was leaving while we were not there."

Ancient Astronauts in Hawaii

There is a known legend that the Hawaiian god, Lono, came to the Hawaiian islands in human form and was described as "fair" or "white" skinned. He taught natives a better way of life and then left, but promised to return again on "floating islands."

In 1770, British captain, James Cook, was rumored to have been mistaken as the second coming of Lono because his third voyage just happen to arrive at the Hawaiian shores during the Makahiki festival. A festival in honor of Lono. Whether Cook's mistaken identity was factual or not, I don't think it had much influence on his fate. Captain Cook had one of his small boats stolen during his visit. In an attempt to get his boat back, he kidnapped the King of Hawaii. That was proven to be a bad idea as Cook was then murdered by members of the King's court. Captain Cook was definitely not the return of Lono. So the legends stands, Lono is still set to return to the islands.

I've compiled a list of similarities between the characteristics of extraterrestrials and the characteristics used to describe Lono. It might be just a coincidence, but the similarities are quite interesting.

-Lono, in the Polynesian islands was known sometimes as Kanaloa, meaning the great light or great brightness.

*UFOs are described in the sky as being extremely bright like the brightness of a star.

-Lono was described as being fair skinned or white.

*Many extraterrestrials have been described as having pale, gray or ash toned skin and also there are the Tall Whites.

-Henry Lyman, American Baptist missionary, wrote that Lono sends two messengers to Earth to find him a wife. When the messengers send word of their finding, Lono, accompanied by birds, descends on a rainbow down to Earth to marry his new bride.

*This legend can be interpreted in many ways, but I think the main point to take note of, is that Lono is not living on Earth. He has to descend down to Earth! Which means, he clearly is an extraterrestrial.

-After Lono's visit to Earth, he leaves, but promises to return on what some texts say as "floating islands."

*Floating islands could be interpreted as UFOs.

Today, ancient alien beliefs have significant influence on the Hawaiian islands.
The reinstated Kingdom of Hawaii has officially dedicated a piece of land for peaceful UFO visitations called, The Hawaii Star Visitor Sanctuary.  The declaration for the landing area mentions that according to Hawaiian legend, the Na Huihui o Makali'i (the constellation of Pleaides/Seven Sisters) is the place from which the first Hawaiian people came to Earth.

UFO and Alien Hoaxes: Tips on How to Debunk a Hoax

One thing that does not help in the research of UFOs and extraterrestrials is hoaxes.  They cloud serious research with time being wasted on debunking them and in the end crush our hopes.

I suppose the only good thing that a hoax can do is provide it's audience with some form of entertainment.

For example, the famous Alien Autopsy. Yep, sorry to break the news, but it wasn't real. As much as I wish it would have been, the man that released the film, Ray Santilli, finally admitted it was a hoax in 2006. That's about ten years after it's release to television networks in the 1990's where it played in 32 countries.

It's a pretty good film. I've seen it before. I always watch it imagining it to be real and then it grosses me out, but then I wonder; "If Santilli would have never come forward admitting the film to be fake, would people still be thinking it's real?"

Further information revealed that Santilli was in procession of some modern quality photographs taken during the filming of the autopsy. He never handed them over to film experts because the photograph's clear quality revealed that the alien's body was made out of latex. So, maybe eventually the film would of been debunked had Santilli never said anything or maybe he was in danger of people from behind the scenes coming forward and admitting it to be fake. Watch the autopsy below and pretend it came to you with no explanation. Would you think it was real? Or can you spot mistakes in accuracy?

As I was searching for the Alien Autopsy footage to embed in to this post, I noticed that every version that had been uploaded to YouTube does not mention that it's fake or a re-enactment. Could there be people out there that still don't know? This is the kind of stuff that needs to be straightened out in order for people to get serious about researching UFOs and extraterrestrials.

Here is a list of tips that might help in debunking a hoax before the hoax gets out of hand.

• What or who is the source of the content?-  (example) Did it come from NASA or USAF? If so, then it might have a good deal of credibility. Did it come from someone with some strange sic-fi sounding screen name? If so, then there is a good chance it's probably fake...

• What is the back story or does it even have a story?- Usually a true story is very simple and straight forward. Not too much information or detail and not too less. Most of the time hoaxes have really elaborate backstories to go with their content because they are trying to sell it to the audience as being "real". Other times a hoax will have no explanation, no backstory which also could be a red flag. Someone doesn't want to say too much to ruin the illusion. 

• Is it accurate- This might be kind of a tricky thing to figure out. Sometimes debunkers have to consult video or photograph experts or experts in the respective medical and science fields, but you don't have to be a rocket scientist to use your common sense. If something looks like a car's hubcap flying through the air, it probably is. 

• Research! The most important key to knowing the truth. Go ahead and google an unexplained photograph, video or story and add "debunked" on the end of your search. There is probably a whole forum of people who have already researched the content and found the truth. 

Don't be embarrassed if you find out something you thought was real turns out to be fake. It happens to us all. Also, don't be embarrassed if something you thought was fake, turns out to be REAL!

For fun, I have gathered together my favorite hoaxes because of their craftsmanship. I even added my own fake UFO photography to the mix. Although, the first time I published my fake UFO photographs, I made sure to let people know that they were fake. Enjoy:

Billy Meier photograph from 1975. His photos have 

never been officially debunked. However, I know it is

possible to create a fake UFO picture without using  

photoshop. I created the ones below with this technique.

Ancient Aliens and The Pyramids

The ancient Egyptian culture is so mysterious. Thousands of years later, their mysteries continue to live on.

How exactly did they create the gigantic pyramids that stand towering over modern buildings in Cairo today?

Look at them! They are HUGE!


Here is an excerpt from sacredsites.com just to get an idea of how massive they are:

"The Great Pyramid was originally 481 feet, five inches tall (146.7 meters) and measured 755 feet (230 meters) along its sides. Covering an area of 13 acres, or 53,000 square meters, it is large enough to contain the European cathedrals of Florence, Milan, St. Peters, Westminster Abbey and St. Paul's. Constructed from approximately 2.5 million limestone blocks weighing on average 2.6 tons each, its total mass is more than 6.3 million tons (representing more building material than is to be found in all the churches and cathedrals built in England since the time of Christ). "

No signs of machinery or high tech tools have been unearthed during archeology digs to suggest technological aid in the construction of the pyramids and no signs of "alien" technology either. It might look as though the ancient Egyptians were just really dedicated hard workers.
Science Daily posted an article in 2008 about how the pyramids were built. Professor of Classics and ancient Mediterranean studies at Penn State, Donald Redford, explained that the process for cutting the pyramid blocks is still being studied, but further studies have discovered that the building process was good ol' down to Earth labor. Copper chisels, dolerite pounders, boats, wooden pegs, ropes, ramps and oil to slide the blocks in to place, and 20,000 to 30,000 people were all used in the making of the massive structures. Redford knows this was possible because during a dig near pyramids, he and 20 of his workers pulled a two-and-a-half ton granite block from the ground without alien magic.

So, it looks as though the question of how the Pyramids were built has been answered, but there are still more questions...

How did the Egyptians move sarcophagi and treasures in to the dark, dense, narrow walk-ways and rooms of the pyramids? Torches would burn-out due to lack of oxygen.

And why does this wall decoration inside the Dendera Temple complex look exactly like a Cathode ray?




And lastly, where did the ancient Egyptians' belief in their solar religion originate from? The pyramid's shape was said to possibly symbolize the sun's rays. Or maybe it was to symbolize something more on the lines of this...

Most Detailed Description of An Alien Gray

There has been rumored information about the alleged alien bodies that were found many years ago at the Roswell crash site. Documents that were brought forward and witness interviews with modern Roswell researchers provided extraordinary information. If this information was or is true, it would be quite amazing. One researcher met with a doctor that possibly worked closely with the alien bodies during 1947. The researcher gathered very detailed information from the doctor. This information is the most descriptive I have come across, so far, of what the alien bodies might have looked like. These descriptions, combined with the ancient alien theories and Travis Walton’s story, sparked a wild hypothesis in my mind:

What if alien grays are synthetic biological life forms created by aliens who are in fact just our more advanced ancestors living on another planet/galaxy/dimension and they send the alien grays to surveillance Earth? (Much like the drones our US military uses.)

I thought of this theory because the information that was given by the doctor to the researcher about the Roswell alien bodies was so bizarre. The bodies were pretty much identical and lacked organs that are vital to a functioning humanoid. Almost as if they weren't created naturally by nature, but instead created synthetically using biological parts. Maybe they were created just for the sole purpose of flying a UFO...

Here are some of the details that I have collected through various resources describing an alien body:

* Being was humanoid
* 3 1/2 to 4 feet tall and weighed 40 pounds
* Head was proportionally larger than a human head.
* Two large, deep set eyes that were wide apart. ( some sources suggested the eyes were almond shaped.)
* Nose was very vague with just a slight protuberance and mouth was only a slit with no teeth that opened to a slight cavity.
(The mouth appeared to not function as a means for communication or food ingestion.)
* There were no earlobes, only apertures on each side of the head.
* No hair on the body, but some sources said there was a slight fuzz.
* The neck, torso, and arms were very thin. The hands reached close to the knee.( Only four fingers and a slight webbing in-between the fingers was noted by observers.)
* Skin color was hard to determine due to the body's state after the crash, but skin color varied from beige, tan, brown to pinkish gray or bluish gray.
* Under a microscope the tissue structure of the skin was mesh-like, suggesting that of a granular skinned lizard like an iguana or chameleon. Skin was scaly, starchy, elastic, or moveable over smooth muscle.
* No apparent reproductive system and no genitalia.
* Colorless fluid prevalent throughout the body, but no red blood cells, no lymphocytes which means not a carrier of oxygen.
* No food or water intake was apparent. No digestive system or GI tract and no intestinal or alimentary canal or rectal area described.
* Some sources said the being reminded them of a Jerusalem Cricket.
* The bodies recovered from the crash were wearing clothing described as something similar to that of a test pilot's flight suit, but made from a very thin metallic material.

I haven't come across any information regarding if the body had any type of functioning brain or heart.
I also have never heard anything about if the aliens were wearing any shoes. I believe that is an important detail. There are a limited amount of reports on what the aliens looked like and it seems none of them mentioned shoes, so maybe the aliens were not wearing any. I pulled all this information from various sources and put them into my own words so that I wouldn't get in trouble for reproducing documents that did not give me permission to do so. While I can't assure the reader that this information is 100% true, I can assure that the sources are just as serious about knowing the truth as I am.

UFO Watchtower in Hooper Colorado Offers A Place To Spot ET UFOs

What started out as just something for fun, hoping to attract tourist off the highway, the UFO watchtower became much more than that. It actually lived up to it's name.

After moving to San Luis Valley in Colorado to raise cows, rancher Judy Mesoline, began hearing many UFO stories from the locals. This is what inspired her idea for a UFO watchtower!
Judy had never experience any UFO phenomena up until that point, but this soon changed. After having to sell her cows due to struggling in the ranching business, a fellow farmer encouraged Judy to actually bring her watchtower idea to life.

The spacey looking dome surrounded by friendly alien decorations rests in Hooper Colorado. Inside, you will find a shop/museum and on top, a tower where up to sixty people can participate in UFO gazing. There has been over 67 sightings at the watchtower alone and Judy has now seen many UFOs herself, since the tower opened in 2000. When referring to if she believes in extraterrestrial UFOs she stated, "And do I believe now? You betcha."

Vice Media has created a well produced, short documentary titled, Valley Of The Ufos, about the UFO watchtower. It starts off with Judy Mesoline's story and than cuts to a guy and his giant pet crocodile! But keep watching, the witnesses' descriptions of UFOs are very similar to what I have seen! Especially when Judy compares one of her sightings to a falling star. Please watch the video below and keep an eye on the sky.

R'ha: Amazing Sci Fi Short Film

R'ha, is a completely outstanding Sci-fi short film, student project, by German artist and film director, Kaleb Lechowski. Kaleb's tumblr reveals he is only 22 years young and created R'ha during his second semester in college! He wrote, animated and directed the alien adventure masterpiece! that includes villainous robots trying to destroy the existence of biological entities. I watched the teaser and was completely impressed. Not one single human in the whole six minuets and 25 seconds of screen time. It's all aliens and robots!! If this doesn't inspire young creators around the world, I don't know what will. Check out the short below and visit Kaleb's tumblr page for more information.

U.F.O DISCLOSURE PROJECT

MUST SEE VIDEO!! PREVIOUS GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TALKING ABOUT THEIR ENCOUNTERS WITH UFOS AND ETs! 

The most astonishing stories came from Sergeant Karl Wolf (57:49) who said NASA found an alien moon base on the dark side of the moon and he clearly saw the pictures! and also Sergeant Clifford Stone (1:10:48) who said since the first UFO crash site he investigated in 1969, there has been 12 more!  Alien bodies were recovered, some deceased and some of them, ALIVE. 

After watching the video and hearing the stories, I now see why the government would choose to keep this information from the public. Our national security seems completely defenseless against the UFOS and with all their encounters it seems understanding extraterrestrial technology is in no way easy.  

I’m very interested in the alien moon base so I will be posting more on that. Stay tuned…

The Discover Channel Telescope

The Discover Channel Telescope had revealed it’s first photos! Glowing spiraling galaxies are showing off to the $53M telescope that took nine years to develop in partnership between Discovery Communications and Lowell Observatory. The 14 ft. telescope sets near Happy Jack, Arizona at the Coconino National Forest under a big dark dessert sky. Let us not forget Arizona is pretty much between Navada’s area 51 and New Mexico’s famous UFO crash sight, Roswell. Judging from the pictures taken by the telescope, that $53M was way worth it.

Please, please telescope, capture a picture of a UFO flying by!
