Scoping Out Mars: from Hubble to the human heart

This morning I found this gorgeous image of Mars on my HubbleSite widget. When Mars is "in opposition" it means that Earth is positioned between Mars and the Sun. You might also have heard the term "opposition" in terms of elongation, which is the angular distance between two points in the sky as measured or seen from a third point. At opposition, a planet's elongation is 180 degrees. So in this case (as I understand it) the angular distance between Mars and the Sun from the perspective of Earth -- at the time this image was captured by Hubble in 2003 -- was near 180 degrees.

The Hubble Site Picture Album has a series of photos of Mars near opposition between 1995 and 2005 -- and a lot of other cool images as well. I especially like to browse the galaxies and nebulae collections.

Now...what about the human heart scope on Mars? I don't know about your heart-view, but I love Mars and Martians! If my intuitive, soul and heart-sourced information is correct, I've had at least one lifetime on Mars. My sense is that my love for exploration of the physical and earth sciences reflects to some extent my experiences on Mars where physical sciences are kind of a specialty.

There was much excitement around the holler lately when my neighbor and spiritual brother Phillel relayed channeled information from a Martian space brother named Krator. You can read these communications at Motah Chronicles. In particular, check out the post entitled Martian Algorithms.

You can also read Phillel's free e-book: Landing Light: A Primer for Space Contact, which covers such topics as covers Operation Landing Light, mass landings, prophecies, space beams, and close encounters. Most importantly, the book describes spiritual space program through which "Earth is being transformed via landing of divine light in man's consciousness, with the aid of space visitors of the Federation of Planets."

Yay! Keep your eyes and heart on Mars! Welcome all visitors from other planets! We truly are all in this awesome solar system together!

"Wonders in the Sky": Why we've always been obsessed with UFOs - salon.com

Very interesting interview with authors of a new book on human experiences of UFOs. One of the authors, Jacques Vallee, has been involved in research on these phenomena for quite some time. I remember back in the '70's when I first got interested in this subject, I read some of Vallee's work and very much appreciated the open scientific-mindedness he brought to the field. It sounds like this book should be of interest to anyone today who, in the spirit of new ideas in physics, is curious about the subjective experience of people who have seen UFOs and what they make of them.

Excerpt:

Why is the idea of ancient UFO sightings a controversial one?

Most UFO believers believe the phenomenon began in 1947, when a civilian pilot named Kenneth Arnold saw several objects that he described as behaving like saucers skipping on water. And he saw them from his plane flying over Mt. Rainier in the state of Washington. And that was the beginning of the flying saucer era in the media.

I came to a point where I wondered when the phenomenon had begun, and I found a lot of material describing objects that seemed to behave the same way [as UFOs] and entities [resembling aliens] that dated back to the Middle Ages. At that time they were called angels or demons or leprechauns or elves or fairies and so on. So I published a book called "Passport to Magonia" that caused something of a scandal with the believers, because I was shaking that idea that UFOs were a recent phenomenon.

UN 'to appoint space ambassador to greet alien visitors' - Telegraph

Mazlan Othman, a Malaysian astrophysicist, is set to be tasked with co-ordinating humanity’s response if and when extraterrestrials make contact.

Aliens who landed on earth and asked: “Take me to your leader” would be directed to Mrs Othman.

Oh, phooey! Somebody else is being considered for my dream job! Check out the video clip with this article at the Telegraph.

New E-book helps all prepare for Space Contact

Many believe that Earth is fast approaching "first contact" -- really re-contact or reconnection -- with brothers and sisters from other planets. As with any new endeavor, a primer or guidebook can be helpful. Phillel, in his blog Motah Chronicles, has made a book available online for just this purpose. Here is a clip from Landing Light:A Primer for Space Contact:

INTRODUCTION

The spiritual space program, directed by hierarchal councils under Sananda as commander in chief, is an integral part of the Second Coming program, which is to be fulfilled in the early decades of the new millennium. The Second Coming carries a dual meaning: the coming again of Sananda as Jesus the Christ, spiritual ruler of planet Earth; and the return of Earthman to Christ awareness, to the exchange of love, peace and brotherhood that will be the hallmark of the New Age of Aquarius.

Love, peace and brotherhood: these are the same precepts of the Federation of Planets, that multidimensional association of planetary civilizations in our solar system, where Christ cooperation reigns supreme. Open spiritual exchange among the sons of God is a fact of life on all planes and planets of our solar system, except as yet on astral and physical realms of Earth.

That is quickly changing. All life forms on Earth are being transformed through the landing of divine light in man's consciousness. We are reawakening to our true nature as sons and daughters of light. But as cosmic citizens, we are also on a countdown to physical contact with our sisters and brothers of the Federation. For the interplanetary unification that has been decreed by Spirit on high must descend to our physical plane as well.

This course will challenge you to turn on your landing light to clear the way for psychic and physical space contact now descending on Earth. It is a primer to outline our way in Spirit, through space, to reunification with the Federation of Planets.

The information in this guidebook is based on the Mark-Age text Visitors From Other Planets. All communications, except two as noted, were channeled through Nada-Yolanda, cofounder of Mark-Age.

Great UFO Photos from China

Are our extraterrestrial brothers and sisters coming more clearly into view?

Air traffic at an airport in China was shut down for a time on July 8th until extraterrestrial traffic cleared the area...lots of people saw this and somebody (or somebodies) got some of the best photos I've seen yet.

I was especially interested in these photos because they show what appears to be a beam of light shining down from the object.

In one of my most mind-changing contacts with extraterrestrial craft, I was beamed by a strobe-like light from a craft directly over me (and my car and a friend) before it made a fraction-of-a-second flight to the nearby Twin Cities, stopped,  then, with a 90-degree change in course, streaked south toward Iowa.

Here's one of the many videos from YouTube on the recent China sighting:

Former Legislator Makes Statement on Un-Released Eisenhower Brief

This is a pretty awesome disclosure. I've seen enough evidence for the existence of extraterrestrial beings for myself, but it's always nice to hear other people's experiences and accounts. Hats off to Henry McElroy, Jr. for adding his voice:

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft

via www.youtube.com

I just got this link from a friend and decided it was time to tell about some other sightings of interplanetary craft that I have witnessed. [See my first post on this subject here and here.]

Back in the late seventies I often went to check out Colorado's night skies. Up in the mountains it's wonderfully dark, and our yard -- an open field with a big rock in the middle of it -- was a great place to watch stars, planets, meteor showers and, on two occasions that I recall, the northern lights.

Whenever I went out, I took my flashlight. I often sent punctuated beams into the night like Morse code to anyone who might be there to answer. Just for kicks, I called my flashlight my "United Federation of Planets signal light." Yes, I'm a big Trek fan (though I've never really identified myself as a Trekkie).

You can imagine my surprise one night, on a late walk to the mail box, to see a rather large light in the sky, back over the North St. Vrain River near where it flows under a bridge on Colorado Highway 7 before it winds down into some pretty rugged backcountry.

The light, about one-third the size of a full moon, began to flash. I had the idea that I should count. It flashed 10 times, fading in and out at 2 to 3 second intervals before it disappeared. I definitely was left with the sense that I had been contacted.

I saw a similar light in that location on several occasions after that, but it only faded out slowly once I had visual contact -- it didn't flash. My sense was that this was not a "manned" craft, but more like a probe or information relay device from a larger spacecraft that had a crew aboard.

My final sighting of a large light in that area was significant, however. At the time of this sighting I think I had just been elected Assistant Chief of the fire department. One evening we got a call from the Boulder County dispatch center that two men were overdue on a fishing trip into the North St. Vrain Canyon in our district.

We immediately sent personnel to the bridge on Highway 7 where the fishermen had planned to meet family members who would pick them up. Another firefighter and I got the rescue vehicle and drove down Highway 7 to meet with our people at the bridge.

As we came down the hill south of the bridge, a large light up in the sky got my attention. It seemed to be a little way down the canyon and looked like the same one I had seen before. This time it maintained its luminescence and executed a fairly rapid U-shaped movement for several seconds before fading out. Intuitively I understood -- as if by means of an informational relay -- that the object was directly over the fishermen and that they were okay.

Neither my coworker nor our crew at the bridge saw the object.

After meeting with our people at the bridge, we went back to the base station. I got out a map of the area and tried to estimate about where the light had been in relation to the bridge and the river. Looking at the map, I thought that the object had pretty much been right over the confluence of the North and Middle St. Vrain creeks.

I told the other firefighters what I had seen. I told them that I thought the fishermen were near the confluence of the creeks and were okay. You gotta give those folks credit for not impeaching me on the spot, but I guess I had at least a little "political capital" (so to speak) after a few months in a command position.

At first light we sent teams down other possible exit routes hoping to run into the fishermen, a father and his teen-aged son. We didn't get very far. We met them walking up the road that we were walking down. They were fine. They told us it had gotten too dark to come all the way out and they had spent the night "where the two creeks come together."

This interdimensional search mission was one of the highlights of my years in the fire service. So kick back and listen to the Carpenters and imagine what other good things could come out of contact with occupants of interplanetary craft.

I've spent much of the day tweaking all of my blogs, and thus have had many occasions to reflect on the many issues I feel passionate about. One of those is a strong desire for the day of "first contact" in these modern times.

I've had a dozen or more sightings and experiences with objects that I believe to be extraterrestrial in origin. I've been thinking about including these in some of my "close encounters in the holler" posts -- though I don't have any actual pictures.

Here's a link to the report I filed with NUFORC on a significant sighting here in Frog Pond Hollow back in December of 2000.

If you've had -- or hope to have -- contact with space brothers and sisters, here are a couple of links to my friend Motah's blog posts on Contacting Life in Our Solar System:
