ALIEN THEORISTS THEORIZING

In 1975, New York City was on the brink of financial disaster. In the previous years the city officials had borrowed more money from banks to prop up its flailing local government until, finally, the banks decided that it was enough. This decision would have long-reaching repercussions that seem to have led directly to how we see the world today. The final decision to take control of a government...

Granite rock is known for being the oldest igneous rock in the world, forming as early as 300 million years ago. The material is one of the hardest and most durable substances known to man, second only to diamonds.

The story of the human race has become increasingly rich and complex as we make new discoveries at a blazing pace.

Earth is a lucky place. Set in the medium range from a star so that carbon based life can flourish, a large enough satellite, the Moon, to deflect incoming meteors and a stable magnetic field to ward off the worst of cosmic radiation. Despite all that, there have been several massive extinction events, that we know of, which have nearly wiped out all life on our little blue space marble. What if t...

In 1976, NASA was more than happy to release photos sent back by their pioneering Viking 1 space probe. Among those photos there was a mysterious image that would set the UFO community’s collective imagination to focus on our rocky red neighbor. Of the 40 missions sent to Mars, only 18 have been deemed successful. Although, the success rate seems impressive when weighed against the many challenges...

Kepler-47 C, a gas giant planet approximately 5 times the mass of Earth over 3,000 lightyears away. It is at least one of a few planets astronomers have observed orbiting a binary star system but if posts from an anonymous source in 2005 on an email forum including some of the time’s leading UFO researchers is to be believed, there is at least one other planet circling two stars and a team of U.S....

The Catholic Church claims that extraordinary demonic activity can take six different forms which may warrant exorcism.
