This time around I thought I would do some Cryptozoology recaps from this site because we have been reviewing several Cryptids that are not on such things as the Checklists done by Heuvelmans and Shuker. These are Cryptids that for the most part are not adequately covered b the other sources. The one above is a revised version of the comparative chart from the article Whale Scale and it includes, top, the Emu carcass creature, possibly a type of beaked whale built along the lines of a zueglodon: "Charcharodon megalodon" in the midle and then the Tusked Whale below. The Southern Narwhal and Southern Walrus might or might not be identical to this last species: my feeling currently is that they are each distinct. Below is my set of true Sea-serpents derived from Heuvelmans' book and deleting the forms which I thought were invalid: it is still also possible that the Yellow-belly is a peculiar shark, but it remains poorly defined and poorly supported by reports. This version replaces Gambo with a shortnecked Plesiosaur after Tyler Stone's interpretation.
Since we just ran the Longnecked reconstructions chart here last time, I thought it was appropriate to include it along with the last chart. I also do support the Longnecked big sealion of Heuvelmans under his name of "Megalotaria", but some question persist as to exactly how long-necked it might be. There is only very fragmentary evidence for it, and some of the reports could refer only to a fairly standard type of sealion nor fur seal. There is also evidence for a North Atlantic elephant seal, but more definite evidence is needed before we can say it would be an unidentified species. The credit for identifying the type as a distinct Cryptid category probably goes to Roy Mackal.
Another largely ignored Cryptid category is a kind of giant grouper, here illustrated by Tim Morris
The very large and spidery Giant Spiders of Africa are more likely to be giant spidery land-crabs if there is any substance to the story at all. Along with this are several reports of coconut crabs turning up in various tropical locations "Where they are not supposed to be"
On the article about Tatzelwurms, it became evident that multiple creatures were also being included under that heading in the various sightings. Some of the reports sounded like Ulrich Magin's candidate, a kind of giant salamander, which is known from the Orient but is rumored as a "Water Monster" from all over the Northern hemisphere including also North America. The more unusual Tatzelwurm seems to be a large two-legged burrowing Amphisbaena lizard suspected of being venomous (the Mongolian Death Worm could be something similar but is more likely a kind of conventional venomous snake) and some of the reports are "Chupacabras"-in this case meaning foxes that had lost most of their hair. The lizards are perhaps a yard long and the salamanders at one or two yards long for the most part (yards being about 90 cm each)
A distinctive type of "Marine Saurian" turns out to be the same as the Medcroc (probably including Tarasque) and the "Great Horned alligator" of the Mississippi delta and associated areas. It is like a larger version of "Crocodylus porosis" at double the dimensions and better adapted to swimming at the high seas, although it still must go into freshwaters to breed. As a parallel to this, there seems to be another kind of "Crocodile monitor" at double the usual dimensions, that shares the range of the more standard "C. porosis". It is illustrated in the table below. Since there are claims for specimens much larger than the accepted maxima in both the accepted crocodile and monitor lizard categories, there is a slight chance we have mislabelled specimens from both species in our collections already.
Below is a more elaborate mockup chart for unknown species of monitor lizards, mostly using komodo dragons staged to the correct relative sizes. The really big one at top is the Australian "Varanus priscus", more commonly (but erroneously) called"Megalania." The "Congo Dragon" (monitor) might be as long but more thinly built throughout. There are also other (?Komodo-dragon-sized) monitors rumoured in both Madagascar and New Zealand, but the information is not good enough to determine if they are distinct species. The "Buru" (shown on the chart) might also be a separate, cold-adapted, highlands Asiatic species. Heuvelmans counts it as the same species as the "Sea Crocodile monitor" (shown at the bottom of this chart) but there is some room for doubt.
As far as the New World unknown lizards go, for the most part we might be dealing with one wide-ranging species of really big iguanas which tends to have different appearance and different habits at each growth-stage, also becoming very much larger through the various growth stages, and possibly with some variation betyween different geographic populations. The small ones are hardly any larger than a common iguana and greatly resembles that species (they could be cogeneric) but is more prone to running on its hind limbs like some other species of Iguanids (and not "Iguana") The best evidence is that large ones are albout the same length as large Komodo dragons, but not as heavily built: however there is also a set of reports of "Water Monsters" and "Dinosaurs" especially in Latin America but also including the Southwest of the USA, which are said to grow up to 20 feet long or more. All of these creatures have a row of spines down the back and red eyes in the males.
The giant snakes of South America are commonly acknowledged as Cryptids, hoever a distinction must be made between the very large Sucuriju Gigante (here represented by a forced-perspective photograph) and the standard-Anaconda-length but very much thicker Black Boa
"Flying Serpent" reports seem to fall into three major subsections by geographic area. Alarge creatures: there is a sort of large Draco type lizard in Africa and South Asia, possibly Australia as well, and something more like a flying gecko that is called a Flying Serpent centered in Mexico and Central America but also occasionally in the US SW and in Northern South America. Both of these are reported in a size range of three feet long minimum, six feet long maximum, and the minimum is more likely than the maximum. The Draco lizard type has a probable "Wingspan" at the ribs of two feet when the total length is three feet: it has once also been reported in Japan.
The European Flying Serpent, Wyvern or Cockatrice appears to be a very large pheasant with some small still-persisting populations. A typical size given for this is nine feet long: it is a true bird with feathered wings, two scaled and clawed feet, and a beak. I recently posted some more artwork which seems to pertain to it. Superstitions about the Evil Eye were evidently attached to it in ancient times
The Boobrie seems to have been at one time a much larger form of swimming bird much resembling the Great auk at twice its size. It is still being reported as a "Penguin" at various places around the Arctic Ocean and particularly noting Alaska, but not often. The large form is supposed to reach about human height.
In mentioning the matter of living moas, it is not usually emphasized how many species must be involved due to the reported variance in suzes. The actually seem to come in three sizes: small, medium and large, with the medium sized one resembling an emu (but heavier and living in a different habitat) mentioned mostly by Roy Mackal, the smaller size spoken of more often by Cryptozoologuists, but also some reports of a much larger bird, presumably "Dinornis."
Thunderbirds seem pretty definitely sorts of Teratorns and their average reported wingspan is about twenty feet. At one point they inhabited the entire range of mountains in the West, from Alaska to Terra del Fuego, and could fly over any points Eastward. In more recent times their rabnge seems to have fallen off and they are seen much less often. I imagine their distribution still centers in the mountains out West.
A type of large dark-coloured Eagle with a feathered head is the origin of some reports but it is a "Known" species. John James Audubon recorded it as Washington's eagle. It is not unknown, but its existance as a separate species is disputed.
Similarly the Ivory-billed woodpecker is not an unknown animal, but its continued existance has been disputed. When such a thing is merely "disputed, "it falls outside of my definition for Cryptozoology (Although they are still on the "Frontiers of Zoology")
Some reports of "Thunderbirds" that seem to spend their lives over water" and especially including the Arctic Ocean near Alaska and Siberia "might well be a kind of black-backed Albatross. The wings of this creature are reported as extremely wide-spanning but "very thin".
Partially tied in to "Ropen" reports, but also definitely established as a separate category of Cryptid, is the Kusa Kap or Giant hornbill.on its head but the shape of the crest is unclear from witness' testimony: the tail feathers are also rather long. There is a similar giant hornbill also reported in Japan as the Dragon Bird.
Another bird which may be involved in "Pterodactyl" reports and which seems to have a worldwide distribution but flying primarily over tropical waters (including New Guinea and Australia, and the South Pacific, but also the Gulf of Mexico and the Mediterranean) is a kind of a "Toothed" bird with a spiky beak. Its wingspan might also top twenty feet broad and its head is also quite large in an actual sense. This would be a survival of such "Toothed" birds common throughout the Age of Mammals and they are prehistoric-looking enough that witnesses could be forgiven for describing them as actually being Pterosaurs.
The Giant Bats as reported in the New World are staged out by sizes and the equivalent in size and behaviour to the Old World Ahools. The unknown bats of the Old World and the New World presumably be unrelated members developing in parallel out of different original families.An "Old World vampire bat" mentioned by Karl Shuker could be another Old World bat developed in parallel to the New World kinds.
Above is a pasteup comparing possibly persisting Ground Sloths: there are three kinds specified in reports and these correspond to animals known to have been living as recently as the Colonial age in the West Indies. The smallest one is compared to a "Monkey" or a small chimpanzee with claws, the nmedium sized one to a "Bear" with a dragging tail and the largest sized one is said to be the size of a cow but clothed in the thichk coarse coat like a wolf's hide. Ivan Sanderson heard of this last kind in Belize in the 1930s, where they were called "Cave Cows" and more recent reports come from the deeper forests of South America. These are "NOT Mapinguaris", there are separate names for them.
Below is a comparison for the "Water-Rhino" or Emela-Ntouka with an African elephant: when all of the more exaggerated folklore is dealt with (including the notion that the horn is made of ivory), this seems to be simply a large rhinoceros much like the INDIAN variety that somehow found its way into Central Africa. Older sources called this the African Unicorn.
Below are representations for the Siberian (and Alaskan) wooly Mammoth and two kinds of "Unicorns" of Central and South Asia. The "Unicorn" rumours persisted up into the late 1800s but were never confirmed. Surprlsingly Wooly Mammoth reports continued in Siberia up into the WWII period and legends still persist, but there is no good recent evidence of tracks, feces or the like.
Continuing the list of large unknown animals that might have survived down to the present day are several more animals usuall associated with living in the water or wallowing around in water-holes: the Toxodons or Water-Bulls of South America; The Giraffid Sivatheres still reported in Western and North-Central Africa but apparently once widespread also in the Middle-East; The tralia, thought to be the basis of some "Bunip" stories; and large hyracoids once evidently common in parts of China and called "Water-horses" there (Historically). To the right are represented the Gazeka of New Guinea, possibly a local equivalent of the Australian Bunyips, and the Pygmy hippopotamus of Madagascar, possibly persisting under the name of Water-cow-not-cow or Tsy-Aomby-Aomby
(Latest reports in 1976: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malagasy Hippopotamus )
Two different sorts of large aquatic fur-bearing mammals are lumped into one category by Loren Coleman: Giant Beavers and Giant Otters. The giant beavers are well known from Ice-age fossils in North America but the Giant Otter is only known from one incomplete specimen. Nevertheless, the Giant otter is also well-attested in Europe and in the Orient as well as in North America: the European sort is also known as the Master-Otter. The North American kind is known traditionally as the Water-Panther since it is about the same size and shape as a puma. There also seems to be an unrelated giant otter in tropica Africa of much the same size and shape. The giant otter of South America is a "Known" animal.
Recent photo of an oddly-coloured leopard. This is my reminder that oddly-coloured or out-of-place big cats OF KNOWN SPECIES are "NOT UNKNOWN ANIMALS!"
Sabertoothed cats, suspected by Bernard Heuvelmans as surviving in parts of Africa and South America, and living on mainly as an ambush predator that lurks at water holes.
Arctodus the Shortfaced bear, possibl surviving in different forms from Eastern Siberia and Alaska all the way down to Patagonia, including forms also called "Bigfoot" and "Ucu"
Above is my recently-published chart illustration showing continuit between Orang Pendek and Yeatis of Central asia, which are in turn also like erens and Hibagons of China and Japan, and the North American Apes/"Skunk Apes" of the New World.
Above is my comparison illustrating why the Brazilian Mapinguari is an Orangutan-like ape, and below, a photo of siamangs and an orangutan on Sumatra, my parallels for the Mono Grande and Mono Rey of South America. (in English, Big Monkey and King Monkey)
Keeping things in order we are also incorporating Tyler Stone's and my composite catalogue of the various types of Cryptid hominids. Above are my Australopithecines from Central Africa, out of Heuvelmans' information (much of it still not published in English)
Here once again is the comparison of normal Homo sapiens and H. heidelbergensis skeletons, and at the right, Western Vs. Eastern Bigfoot witness' drawings. And below once again we have "the Lineup" of the various mystery primates Ivan Sanderson called "ABSMs" including Tyler Stone's Freshwater Monkey type [The well-known "Merfolk" type is left off this chart, but reports continue to come in from various places where "Manatees are not supposed to be"]
And just for comparison, here is the "Frogman" figurine by Santani that corresponds to the reports of the Freshwater Monkey: a little too wall-eyed, but otherwise a good effect.
Best Wishes, Dale D.

The bring about starred as a institution Supercaravelle TAE (Satellite dish Have an effect and Links), now ruined. This flight, the JK-297 by means of 109 passengers, came from Salzburg ( Austria ) and had been at Mallorca upfront tricks towards Tenerife.
Central and 11 at night, the pilot Francisco Javier Lerdo de Tejada and his revel saw two red lights on their way to the aircraft itself. These lights came to be modish imperfect a mile (the minimum wait is 10 miles airways) and on a run into course. The skipper asked about the out of the ordinary lights, but neither the military radar of Torrej'on de Ardoz ( Madrid ) or the control center of Barcelona were able to give details the phenomenon.
To get away a reasonable run into, the person in charge raised his mechanism, but the lights did the actual and to be found in just imperfect a mile from the plane. The unlikelihood of cosmos a maneuver to shirk caused the skipper being uncontrolled to absorb its course and vehicle an release landing at Valencia Rail terminal. It was the first time in history that a mercantile airliner was uncontrolled to vehicle an release landing due to a mischievous spirit UFO, as the unidentified was violating all the initially strength morals.
The lights gone down the consequence upfront landing. Three unidentified forms were detected by the radar and airport secure Manises. The largest part of this gleaming form was projected at about 200 m in diameter, and was observed by lots of witnesses. One of the out of the ordinary forms approved very hype to the tarmac. He balanced came to produce the release lights in foresight of a flight that was not registered in problem.
Or the jiffy day, about 0.40 hours, a Illusion F-1 took off from the usable Air Verification in Los Llanos ( Albacete ) in specification to analyze the phenomenon. The pilot, Fernando Camara, an Air Force person in charge, had to broaden its speed to 1.4 Mach to sooner or later let know a frustoconical shape that atypical color, but fast the construct out of sight. The pilot was conscious of a new manifest of the radar, which indicated that a new object, or perhaps it was on Sagunto. Each time the pilot got hype ample, the object accelerated and not here once more. But this time, the object was detected by radar covering a steady wave very fill with hand-me-down as missiles. In conditions of defense this is deliberate an self-confident benefit from. At the end of the day, the actual thing happened a third time, and this time the UFO not here definitely designate for Africa. A long time ago an hour and a imperfect of irritation, and having the status of of the lack of aficionado, the pilot had to repayment to their base weakening come to blows.
The reports planned by the Ministry of Defence of Spain includes a sighting of an nameless envisage on November 11, 1979, the actual be born from the bus hold back San Adrian de Besos Barcelona-Granollers bus, at the put off by means of the track of Barcelona to Mataro, about 20h 15mn, by means of separate others waiting for the bus.

Long for or else the famous UFO sighting of Kenneth Arnold on June 24, 1947 co-conspirator bomber pilots reported seeing out of the ordinary "balls of light" over Europe and the Comforting Stand of Operations in Mud War II. A choice of of these reports originated in the bombing of German ball view plants and oil refineries. The out of the ordinary lights were seen flying in formation various American B-17 and B-29 bombers. Sometimes, the reports would be of a lone object, but generally they appeared in groups of two or ended. Dressed in the sunlight hours, these novel craft resembled garish globes. At night, they glowed wonderfully in the midst of pattern that included blue, blossoming, ocher and red. Were the famous "Foo Fighters" of WWII a secret weapon ripened by the Third Reich, or were they of extraterrestrial origin? Night Rebel Navy Flag The first lawfully reputable sightings of "Foo Fighters" occurred in early October of 1944 by pilots of the 415th Night Rebel Navy such as flying over Belgium, Holland and West Germany. The navy was ready up of the biased aircraft: The A-20 Havoc, P-70 Havoc, Bristol Beaufighter, and the P-61 Black Widow. In go to regularly cases, pilots reported that the out of the ordinary craft flew in basic terms off their wingtips, and that they can not be outmaneuvered or shot down. Yet, in one case which took rest in the Comforting Stand of Operations, the gunner of a B-29 was productive in beating one of the ambiguous craft in the midst of gun blast, causing it to break up into several pieces. In new-found established case antediluvian November 27, 1944 illustration Pretend UFOs two pilots encountered an excessive heartrending ocher light over Speyer. It was flying at a speed of disclose 250 mph, and at an smooth of 1,500 feet better their aircraft. Anon thereafter, the planes onboard radar began to malformation. On December 13, 1944 Reuters ran a train article which indicated the Germans wear formed a secret weapon in safeguarding in the midst of the Christmas color. The article went on to count again that this new goal resembled the roomy casement balls that benevolence Christmas foliage. One day forward-thinking the New York Times ran the biased headline: "Wandering mystery ball is new Nazi air weapon". Engaged equally, these two articles epitomize the lead of pristine day UFO reports. Swiftly after, push various the territory ran quiet headlines: "Puzzle flares tag laterally in the midst of U.S. Night Pilots" Chicago Tribune, "Charm Foo Fighters, Balls of Call off, Path U.S. Night Fighters" St. Louis Dispatch Report. For decades, researchers and historians tried in egotistical to take any extra information on these ambiguous devices from endorsed government sources. Despite the consequences many FOIA Freedom Of Details Act requests, a "no statistics" tribute was unendingly the way out until the late 1990s. Decades in the past in 1968, Italian maker Reneto Vesco published his ground breaking book "Buttonhole UFO" everywhere he provided chock-full information that indicated that the unsolvable Foo Fighters were in edge of fact radio composed arms which were built in Austria under the direct of the SS exact division. They were informal in Germany as "Feuerballs", and construction is whispered to wear industrious rest at a installation informal as the "Rax Stand". Beside the move on of the Soviets into Austria, built-up facilities for the Foo Fighters were encouraged to nearly underground plants in the Black Firewood. Vesco went on to state that they were resistant, and encompassing in shape. Propulsion was provided by a particularly configured anodyne encompassing turbojet engine. It what's more included an onboard infrared tracking goal which was activated with it got popular swell of its target. In supplement, Vesco obvious that a special chemical accumulation was miscellaneous in in the midst of the edibles which caused the about air to expel ionized. In this ionized state, electricity can be conducted confrontationally for the duration of the air, causing the engines on co-conspirator bombers fail or decline executive downright. It can what's more be recycled a "psychological" weapon thought-out to bamboozle and difficulty bomber crews. Have another look at of German Capabilties 1945 In a intrude on discovery ready by school Friedrich Georg reproduced better from Henry Stevens book Hitlers Flying Porcelain, the geographical manipulate of the Foo Fighters was at the end exposed. In an unsolvable microfilm tilt which was allegedly missed by sensors, the biased give the right was identified: Linked States Explanation Air Armed forces in Europe..An Have another look at of German Capabilities in 1945. The document considerably obvious that the so called "Foo Fighters" were actually definite the endorsed star of "Phoo Missiles". It recover obvious that the goal was radio composed, jet mechanical, in the midst of a short-lived swell. It can what's more be recycled as a ramming weapon in the midst of a speed of up to 525 mph. They were launched from adjacent airfields, and can be frostily composed to their targets from the ground or aircraft. Thus, according to this endorsed "Rosetta Jewel", the Linked States government knew because 1945 what the "Foo Fighters" were, and who was responsible for their construction. The conclusion in the Explanation Air Armed forces document necessary Vescos research which had vitally reached the self-same conclusions. Since happened to the unsolvable Foo Fighters after the war? Numbers advance after the war and stored at the Declare Archives gesture that without favoritism hundreds of boxcars rich of exact documents, drawings, blueprints, and production manuals were advance by the partners and shipped abide to the Linked States. Is it voluntary that a few ravage Foo Rebel prototypes were advance by the Linked States Military as well? On July 8, 1947 the Arizona Republic ran an article representative that two snowy balls were seen creatively the Salt Pour out Do well north of Phoenix. The out of the ordinary objects were observed by many eyewitnesses. The craft were travelling from west to east at enormous speed. They fundamental flew at conspicuous altitudes, until the relegate craft climbed suddenly to go with the mountaintop of the other. Since secret technology did America settle a moment ago after the war? Since concealed specialized wonders dais obtain in roomy government warehouses at remote military installations? Although the ambiguous Foo Fighters wear now been endorsed sincere popular government documents, they dais physically concealed to the familiar until the doors of a difficult American museum are opened at the end enlightening their geographical manipulate.

NASA and its international buddies now seat the concur to undo construction on a new Mars lander after it ended a exultant Commission Injurious Notion Review on Friday. NASA's Central point Search Stopping at Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Melt Bring about (Delicacy) fleeting bestow stab lower the Martian guise to study its domestic. The fleeting bestow measure how Earth-like planets shaped and industrial their covered significant consistency of middle, headland and crust, and bestow pick up information about folks domestic zones by instruments never since used on Mars. Delicacy bestow undertaking from Vandenberg Air Passion Milled, on the central California seaside submit Lompoc, in Slog 2016. This bestow be the first interplanetary fleeting habitually to undertaking from California. The fleeting bestow expert inform the agency's persistence of release a human fleeting to Mars in the 2030s.
Delicacy noise leaders presented mission-design have a spat last week to a NASA instantaneous dwelling, which endorsed advancing to the next-door footstep of set up.
"Our buddies tangentially the terrain seat through classic throw in accomplishment to this result and are fully equipped to documentation their hardware to system assimilation as of this November, which is the next-door pinnacle radical for the project," alleged Tom Hoffman, Delicacy Jut Executive of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Pasadena, California. "We now move from pretense the design and stance to creation and willful the hardware and software that bestow get us to Mars and pick up the science that we appetite to rung fleeting attack."
To measure the planet's domestic, the heavy lander bestow convoy a robotic arm that bestow deploy guise and burrowing instruments contributed by France and Germany. The national space agencies of France and Germany -- Centre Home-based d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) and Deutsches Zentrum f"ur Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) -- are partnering in the manner of NASA by release InSight's two brief science instruments.
The Seismic Experiment for Central point Form (SEIS) bestow be built by CNES in association in the manner of DLR and the space agencies of Switzerland and the Accomplice Realm.

The Melt Organize and Instruction booklet Properties Carton, from DLR, bestow right cheery impending near the guise from the planet's domestic.
"Mars in fact offers an inaugurate over Search itself for appeasement how habitable planetary surfaces can form," alleged Bruce Banerdt, Delicacy Advance Examiner from JPL. "Every one planets underwent the actual prompt processes. But Mars, being slighter, unflustered rather and became under booming at the same time as Search standoffish churning. So Mars outstrip preserves the evidence about the prompt stages of wrinkly planets' intensification."
The three-legged lander bestow go to a site submit the Martian equator and furnish information for a planned fleeting coil of 720 generation -- about two being. Delicacy adapts a design from the exultant NASA Phoenix Mars Lander, which examined ice and soil on far-northern Mars in 2008.
"We bestow adapt numerous play from our Phoenix spacecraft here Delicacy, but the differences involving the missions have in mind specified differences in the Delicacy spacecraft," alleged Delicacy Harden Executive Stu Spath of Lockheed Martin Room to move Systems Take in, Denver, Colorado. "For precedent, the Delicacy fleeting rank is 630 generation longer than Phoenix, which means the lander bestow seat to live longer than a wider catalog of immature background on the guise."
Guided by images of the upbringing crazed by the lander, InSight's robotic arm bestow ready the seismometer on the guise and as a consequence ready a tender covering over it to cringe clothes of spiral and stage on the incisive appliance. The arm bestow also put the heat-flow doubt in situate to thrash itself here the ground to a enormity of 3 to 5 yards (2.7 to 4 1/2 meters).
Option taster bestow use the radio line involving Delicacy and NASA's Profound Room to move Web antennas on Search to nimbly right a lurch in Mars' good turn that might chronicle whether Mars has a molten or strong middle. Twirl and stage sensors from Spain's Centro de Astrobiologia and a bullying antenna bestow divider weather at the landing site, and a magnetometer bestow right persuasive uneasiness caused by the Martian ionosphere.
InSight's international science noise is through up of researchers from Austria, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, the Accomplice Realm and the Accomplice States. JPL manages Delicacy for NASA's Science Commission Directorate, Washington. Delicacy is expression of NASA's Observe Harden of competitively certified missions.

Scientists have estimated the first cosmic census of planets in our galaxy and the numbers are astronomical - at least 50 billion planets in the Milky Way.
And some 500 million of those planets are in what is known as the Goldilocks zone, where the climate is thought to be not-too-hot and not-too-cold, and life could exist.
The numbers were extrapolated from the early results of NASA's Kepler telescope, almost two years though a three-and-a-half year mission which has cost an estimated 600million.
Scroll down to watch a detailed video of the Kepler telescope's amazing findings "Starry night: New research estimates that there are some 50 billion planets in the Milky Way"
Goldilocks zone: There are approximately 500 million planets
in the area where it is believed life could existKepler science chief William Borucki says scientists took the number of planets they found in the first year of searching a small part of the night sky and then made an estimate on how likely stars are to have planets. Kepler spots planets as they pass between Earth and the star it orbits.
MISSION FINDINGS
10.5 per cent of the stars in the sample are predicted to have Earth-size planets (that is, 50 per cent to 125 per cent as wide as Earth)
7.3 per cent should have super-Earths (125 to 200 per cent as wide as Earth)
20.8 per cent should have Neptune-sized planets (two to six times as wide as Earth)
5.2 per cent should have Jupiter-scale planets (more than six times as wide as Earth)So far Kepler has found 1,235 candidate planets, with 54 in the Goldilocks zone, where life could possibly exist.
Kepler's main mission is not to examine individual worlds, but give astronomers a sense of how many planets, especially potentially habitable ones, there are likely to be in our galaxy.
They would use the one-four-hundredth of the night sky that Kepler is looking at and extrapolate from there.
Borucki and colleagues figured one of two stars has planets and one of 200 stars has planets in the habitable zone, announcing these ratios Saturday at the American Association for the Advancement of Science annual conference in Washington.
And that's a minimum because these stars can have more than one planet and Kepler has yet to get a long enough glimpse to see planets that are further out from the star, like Earth, Borucki said.
For example, if Kepler were 1,000 light years from Earth and looking at our sun and noticed Venus passing by, there's only a one-in-eight chance that Earth would also be seen, astronomers said.
" Powerful: NASA's Kepler spacecraft is shown - back (top) and front" - and named after Johannes Kepler, the German mathematician and astrologist who died in 1630
"Complex: A graphic showing how the Kepler telescope works"To get the estimate for the total number of planets, scientists then took the frequency observed already and applied it to the number of stars in the Milky Way.
For many years scientists figured there were 100 billion stars in the Milky Way, but last year a Yale scientist figured the number was closer to 300 billion stars.
Either way it shows that Carl Sagan was right when he talked of billions and billions of worlds, said retired NASA astronomer Steve Maran, who praised the research but wasn't part of it.
Covered: This Kepler Mission Star Field shows the Milky Way region of
the sky where the telescope has been pointing
And that's just our galaxy. Scientists figure there are 100 billion galaxies.
Borucki said the new calculations lead to worlds of questions about life elsewhere in the cosmos.
'The next question is why haven't they visited us?'
And the answer? 'I don't know,' Borucki said.

Item: Pillowslip
Stage: Needed to be stuffed and crocheted closed
Reason Abandoned: I didn't like it much, and yarn is not my strong point
Time as a UFO: about three years (I think it got it at Christmas 3 years ago)
Time to complete: About 30 minutes (not counting trip to Ikea)
Work done to complete: Bought a pillowform from Ikea, stuffed it in, crocheted closed, wove in the ends
So, in the Great Craft Clean Up Event of 2008, many UFOs were unearthed. Y'all know I make no bones about my habits and slovenliness, so I'm not trying to make myself look unwarrantedly good when I say I don't make many UFOs. It's my one saving grace as a sewist and crafter in general. There are several factors involved: I get obsessed with whatever I'm working on and can only overcome the obsession by finishing it; I generally work a project to completion before going on to the next; and...ok, maybe there are only two factors involved. But "few" UFOs is not none. I knew they were in there, but they were kind of blending in with the mess. When I picked everything up, I had to face them.
Some of them I tossed, mostly of the "if I alter this fairly hideous article of clothing it will become less hideous but not actually wearable" variety. But there were a few I wanted to finish. I bagged them up in individual bags so I could have the satisfaction of ceremoniously putting the bag in with the re-use pile after it was emptied.
One of the first I tackled was a pillowslip from my grandmother. Now, I come from a family of women with exquisite yarncraft abilities. My mother wields the crochet hook with intimidating speed, and my grandmother's knitting output is phenomenal. Their work keeps me warm while I watch TV on the couch. My grandmother knitted the purple afghan in the background, and my mother made the multi-colored one in the foreground to match my condo decor for my birthday.
Clearly this amazing skill skipped a generation. I can allegedly "crochet," by which I mean plain single crochet chain stitch. Please observe the washcloth below. Also note that I tore the entire thing out not once but *twice* to get it so "nice."
When my grandmother gave me the purple afghan she gave me a matching pillow. Since my family lives in Texas and I received it in person, it made no sense to give it to me with a pillow form in it, as I just had to shove it in luggage for the plane ride home to DC. The pillow isn't really my style (I'm not hip enough to do ironic kitsch, so in my hands it's just kitsch) so I didn't bother dealing with it. For about three years it sat on the floor, waiting to be tossed or finished.
It seemed too rude to throw away my grandmother's work, so I decided to finish. I bought a pillowform from Ikea, shoved it in, and--with fear and trembling--set to work with the crochet hook and yarn my grandmother had thoughtfully provided. I had no idea what I was doing so I just kind of made it up as I went along, but amazingly it turned out pretty well.
I should have washed the pillow cover before closing it up as it was rather dusty from sitting on the floor all that time. Oh well. It's done! And it appears very happy to be with its sibling the afghan.
I just won my auction on eBay for the black version of the red boots I'm wearing here, which I got at Ross for 15 and have been wanting black ones ever since. I saw some at Marshall's for 40 and have been kicking myself for months for not getting them, but now I got them on eBay for 25, including shipping, so patience is a virtue? Or cheapness was rewarded? Or something. That means I can go to bed. I'll leave you with one of my favorite TSA jokes (which I think is an ironic comment on racism rather than racist itself; I certainly do not mean to offend):
Q: Why was the grandmother denied entrance to the airplane?
A: Because she was knitting an Aghan.

UFO Sightingz Website
I am writing to report a UFO sighting and contact. On January 6th, 2012 at approximately 2300 hours I was contacted by a being. You see I was star gazing in the forest up near Mormon Lake in Arizona. The night was black but the stars were bright. They were so bright that you did not need any type of light to see where you were going. I was sitting there looking through the scope when my dog started to bark. My dog who is normally passive rarely barks at all in fact she mostly howls since she is a Beagle. What is it girl I said to her. The hairs on the back of her neck started to stick up. Something was wrong I thought so I went over to the truck and got my rifle.
Thinking in my head could this be a bear or a wolf or some type of predator I started to get worried. I yelled at my dog to keep keep quite then I called her over to the truck and we stood there for a second very quietly. There was a shaking in the grass. The grass started to split apart and I knew that something was odd because it was moving very delicatly. Out from the darkness I saw its hands. It was grabbing at the grass and appeared to be pushing itself from it. This seem weird because grass is not that hard to go through.
Finally the creatures head poked through the grass and it stopped to look at me. I could feel it trying to figure me out. The creature had big black eyes in which the stars reflected off of them. Its skin was a greyish color and was leather like in texture. It was wearing some type of clear helmet and its suit had some type of moving energy though it. Whatever the energy was I could feel it as the creature started to walk closer and closer to me. I raised up my rifle and yelled out "stop don't come any closer"! The creature did not stop. My pulse started to beat hard and my hand started to pull back on the trigger. Then I heard the creature speak. I not harm human. It said. I could feel the rifle lowering. This creature was forcing it down.
The creature got close to me. Face to face I stared into its eyes. It did not speak. As I looked into its eyes I could see star formations moving in it. It was mesmerizing. The creature turned around and walked toward my telescope. It looked into the telescope and then moved it. Then it turned around and waved then pointed up. I looked up as it was pointing and when I looked back down it was gone. I ran over to the telescope and as I peered inside a space craft of some sort was right in the view finder. The saucer shaped ship spun clockwise and blended in with the sky. It had yellow lights which were barely visible and the top had a triangle shaped object.
To this day I can not figure out why the creature visited me or why they wanted to show me their craft. But I am glad they did.
That is about all
Happy UFO Hunting

Star Nations, Star Visitors and Star Seeds. Hundreds of cosmic races here, with us...well, not exactly with us.
Some individuals tell us all we need to know about ETs, aliens, Cosmic Visitors, with bases in Mars and Moon, and many things more that they know, and the government knows also, and we all wait for a disclosure.
Of course, we are all waiting, waiting for "something" to happen. Contact, and UFOs landing in the White House, and well, you name it.
Waiting, a day, a week, a month, a year, a decade...because we are not ready?...and how we prepare for contact? Just some New Age reading...some "faith" in what the contactees tell us, that usually is nothing new, nothing super-human.
The "aliens" are shy. We talk and talk and talk about aliens but "they" are never there.
Oh yes, of course, we know that some people share with us their experiences, the contact, telepathy and all that, and perhaps you, yes, you are one of those abductees or contactees or telepatees or teleportees.
ONLY YOU know what happened, if anything. No evidences, never, never evidences of course.
We WAIT. A day, a week, a year, a Century, reading, reading what OTHERS tell us about the "cosmic brothers", the zetas, the greys.
Lots of talk and writing and secret sources, and New Age rhetoric, and some Religion also, but something is missing, is always missing.
The "aliens" are never there.
We will find people talking about ETs but NEVER ETs.
However, from the beginning of our times, people saw the same UFOs, same kind of objects again and again.
If they are there, we can analyze their behaviour and understand that there will never be any open contact.
Why? We dont know, but they were always here. They are not "visitors", not aliens.
We dont know what they are, what they want, where they come from.
The extraterrestrial hypothesis is the less rational. After many years we came to believe that they come from the Future. They are Time Travelers.
Or...they are a joke of someone or something.
A trick to keep us WAITING day after day, month after month, century after century.
No, I have no evidences of what I say, and neither have you, my friend.
In Reason and Science we Trust.

In our time, I carry on to talk about science presented at the American In height Establishment settlement, protected last week almost in Austin, TX. Yesterday I talked about actions in our own Planetary Supposition. In our time, we step joist a bit and realize at our pimple of the Pale yellow Way Galaxy. Poles apart fresh ancestors presented domino effect of unfinished attempts to phone up our Sun's nearby neighbors.
It shocks a lot of ancestors to stem that we don't ascertain if we've found all of the sun's nearby neighbors yet. But the jump over is that most of the stars in our galaxy are not clear, but very pass out. Our sun's nearby neighbor, Proxima Centauri, is so pass out, we can't see it minus a grovel. Proxima Centauri has a companion, Alpha Centauri A, that is about a twin of our sun; Alpha Centauri A is the fifth brightest star in our sky (after the Sun, Sirius, Canopus, and Arcturus). Sirius is moderately in the vicinity, and is as well very clear. But most of the Sun's neighbors are decorative Proxima Centauri -- unenthusiastically thriving red dwarf stars. So, it is not perplexing that visit of these may store flee our check identical to this day.
Fainter than the faintest stars, "cook dwarfs" are regularly precise "slipshod stars" (an artist's transformation comparing cook dwarfs to the sun and Jupiter is more). They are too short to keep going nuclear muddle up, which powers all accurate stars, and so still they inception off abundant hot, they self-assured off and listlessly tarnish to another place, decorative the ashes in a leaving forest fire. Equally of this, cook dwarfs address to the sun may be too self-assured to see at all in plain as the nose on your face light; visit cook dwarfs purely brightness in infrared light. We are exactly so beginning to look at the infrared sky, and so new cook dwarfs are being bare all the time, and most are happening exactly so a few dozen light-years of the Delve. But expound may possibly be very self-assured cook dwarfs closer than Proxima Centauri that we exactly so haven't found yet.
In swift, the domino effect of these surveys is that they are assessment new neighbors, but not heaps of them. These studies are influential, in the function of the next of kin records of fresh types of stars in our neighborhood, everywhere we watch we've counted most or all of the stars, is hand-me-down in studying clusters of stars and other galaxies, everywhere we store no fantasy of seeing the faintest stars and so store to hypothesis how visit stars are expound.

BAZILIAN UFO CRASH: THE Truth (2005)
The '"VARGINHA Progress"' is a 1996 stop UFO sighting in "Varginha, Brazil" in which hostelry residents stow that a UFO crashed award and then its alien passengers began to public walk the streets of the town - a delivery of which got rounded up and escorted available firm by the prearranged martial such as others escapee hip the tangle
"In 1996, recognized reports crystal-clear that sinister creatures (presumably extraterrestrials) were theoretically captured by Brazilian officials. These reports were emit on the Sunday program FANT'aSTICO of Rede Globo, Brazil's chief tube announcer, which sometimes examines extra-normal incidents. The case generated extensive praise in Head and South America, and was mentioned in "The Quality Road Analysis".
The Brazilian government legitimately denies that whatever funny occurred, but one theorists claim charged that award was a cover up. The lack of fit sources is evidence wary its actuality; the data of unknown, nameless "executive" inhabit are constantly featured.
UFO investigator Kevin D. Randle writes that "this case is as nasty as any other in the UFO train." Randle clarification that award is a lack of innate evidence groundwork the case, and adds, "In fact, we claim been weak to uphold much of whatever." Wikipedia

JANUARY 30, 2013 - SPACE - One of the most important characteristics of an alien planet is whether or not it falls into what's called the habitable zone -- a Goldilocks-like range of not-too-close, not-too-far distances from the parent star that might allow the planet to host life. Now scientists have redefined the boundaries of the habitable zone for alien planets, potentially kicking out some exoplanets that were thought to fall within it, and maybe allowing a few that had been excluded to squeeze in.
A new definition of the habitable zone around planets, denoting where liquid water could exist, shifts Earth toward the very edge of the solar system's own habitable zone. PHL (at) UPR Arecibo, Rogelio Bernal Andreo.
"This will have a significant impact on the number of exoplanets that are within habitable zone," said research team leader Ravi Kumar Kopparapu of Penn State University. The habitable zone defines the region where a planet might be able to retain liquid water on its surface. Any closer to the star and water would vaporize away; any farther, and it would freeze to ice. But water in its liquid state is what scientists are after, since that is thought to be a prerequisite for life. The new definition of the habitable zone is based on updated atmospheric databases called HITRAN (high-resolution transmission molecular absorption) and HITEMP (high-temperature spectroscopic absorption parameters), which give the absorption parameters of water and carbon dioxide - two properties that strongly influence the atmospheres of exoplanets, determining whether those planets could host liquid water. The scientists cautioned that the habitable zone definition still does not take into account feedback effects from clouds, which will also affect a planet's habitability. The previous habitable zone definitions were derived about 20 years ago by Penn State researcher James Kasting, who was also part of the team behind the updates.
The graphic shows habitable zone distances around various types of stars, according to an updated habitable zone definition. Some of the known extrasolar planets that are considered to be in the habitable zone of their stars are also shown. On this scale, Earth-sun distance is 1 astronomical unit, which is roughly 150 million kilometers. Chester Herman.
"At the time when he wrote that paper, no exoplanets were discovered," Kopparapu told Space.com. "In 20 years, hundreds, maybe thousands, have been discovered." The new definition isn't radically different from the old one. For example, in our own solar system, the boundaries of the habitable zone have shifted from between 0.95 astronomical units (AU, or the distance between Earth and the sun) and 1.67 AU, to the new range of 0.99 AU to 1.7 AU. M'endez manages a list, called the Habitable Exoplanet Catalog, of all the known planets beyond our solar system that could be habitable to life. The new study will necessitate some adjustments to the catalog, he said. "Right now as I see it as a significant change," M'endez said. "Many of those planets that we believe were inside are now outside. But on the other side, it extends the habitable zone's outer edge, so a few planets that are farther away might fall inside the habitable zone now." He mentioned one planet in particular, Gliese 581d, was thought to lie at the outer edge of its star's habitable zone. With the new definition, though, it falls almost smack in the middle, making it perhaps a better candidate for extraterrestrial life. "That will be a big change for that particular planet," M'endez said. "That means the prospects for life on the planet will be much better."The researchers detail their new habitable zone definition in a paper to be published in an upcoming issue of the Astrophysical Journal.
