Among the thousands of UFO-related cases that have been reported over the years, the Falcon Lake UFO encounter occupies a unique place in paranormal history. While a large majority of UFO incidents are reported as strictly aerial sightings, the Falcon Lake encounter is one of a relatively small amount of cases that document actual physical injuries as the result of a UFO-related experience. The incident was reported to have taken place on May 20th, 1967 at Falcon Lake in southeastern Manitoba, Canada. Stephen Michalak, a mechanic living in Winnipeg, Manitoba, had decided to spend his Victoria Day weekend prospecting for…

The James Bond franchise has been on a vigorous quest to find its new 007 after the exit of Daniel Craig from the franchise. Although Henry Cavill was initially considered the favorite after Craig, it seems the actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson has turned up as the new contender for the role. The Marvel star Aaron Taylor-Johnson seems to have caught the eyes of the Bond producer, as the Quicksilver actor is reportedly being considered the new frontrunner for the iconic role. But Henry Cavill isn’t much behind his new adversary, considering he was one of the first choices for James Bond before Daniel…

Having sheltered a crashed alien, the shepherd Sagynbai may have saved the Soviet base with nuclear weapons from a UFO invasion. This story took place in June 1979 in the Turgai region of the Kazakh SSR near Arkalyk – now almost abandoned, but then – a prosperous industrial city. The local shepherd named Sagynbay, woke up in the middle of the night, left the house and saw that the sky was glowing. It seemed to him that the source of light was not far away, and the shepherd, saddling his horse, decided to go and find out what was the…

Ah, the candle clock. A timeless invention that has been used to measure time – and wake people up – for ages. And it works in such simple but cool way. Candle clocks, also known as candle timers, are devices that use the rate of burning of a candle to measure a specific amount of time. The most basic form of a candle clock consists of a candle, a holder, and a marking on the candle or holder that indicates the amount of time that has passed. The principle behind a candle clock is that the rate at which a…

A mysterious 3,200-year-old sword accidentally discovered near a stone megalith on the Spanish island of Majorca (Mallorca) sheds new light on a long-lost civilization. The sword was found by archaeologists at the Talaiot del Serral de ses Abelles site in the town of Puigpunyent in Mallorca, Spain. It’s one of only 10 swords from the Bronze Age found at the site. © Diario de Mallorca Named the Talayot Sword the artifact seems to have been left deliberately at the site, but for what reason? The Spanish Excalibur, as some refer to it was unearthed underneath a rock and mud close…

There is a lot of information about UFO research by employees of a special department under the KGB. The KGB was the main security agency for the Soviet Union from 13 March 1954 until 3 December 1991. It was the chief government agency of “union-republican jurisdiction”, carrying out internal security, intelligence and secret police functions. The agency was a military service governed by army laws and regulations, in the same fashion as the Soviet Army or the MVD Internal Troops. While most of the KGB archives remain classified, with the collapse of the USSR, the “secret” stamp was dropped from…

Norman Bergrun, a scientist who worked for 12 years at NASA, has claimed that there are alien ships in the rings of Saturn. But, he stated with regret, science does not want to admit this. Bergrun served on the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics and worked with Lockheed Martin on some classified aerospace projects. In his 1986 book Ringmakers of Saturn, he first outlined the theory that extraterrestrial craft had been sighted on the solar system’s ringed planets, especially Saturn. Bergrun says that while analyzing images taken from the Voyager probes over the years, he found strange objects near the…

The extremely well-camouflaged mata mata turtle dresses like a piece of bark with spiky ridged scales, and sucks in prey by creating a vacuum. And it appears to be always smiling. One of the largest freshwater turtles (their shell can grow to nearly 45 centimeters or 1.5 feet, and weigh about 17 kilograms or 38 pounds), the mata mata is a rather strange-looking animal, at least by human standards. It has a disproportionately large head and elongated thick neck, riddled with warts and ridges known as ‘tubercles‘. On either side of its long snout sits a shiny disc resembling a…

In the remote Siberian forests live mysterious people called the Ket. They are reclusive nomadic tribes that still hunt with bows and arrows and use dogsleds for transportation. A family of Siberian Ket people © Wikimedia Commons These indigenous peoples of the Siberian forests, referred to as the Ket people (or “Oroch” in some accounts), have long been intriguing anthropologists, historians and—yes—even UFO enthusiasts. The reason for this is because the origin of these people has remained a mystery for a long time. Their stories, customs, appearance and even language are so unique from all other known tribes that it…

In 1978, a case occurred in the USSR, which is still being discussed among ufologists. Not far from Perm there was a children’s pioneer camp “Rainbow”. Every year, several hundred boys and girls rested here, reports adi19.ru. They came from nearby cities and villages, as well as from distant ones. Larisa Goyvorova was a native of St. Petersburg and at the age of 15, she visited the “Rainbow” and found herself in the center of strange events. On July 21, 1978, Larisa Goyvorova woke up at night from the fact that someone was calling her name. The sound was heard in…

There are some actors who just end up bringing such a vibrance and atmosphere to movies that just make you want to watch those movies over and over again, a good example being Zoe Saldana. This is a good phenomenon for everyone involved in making the movie as its theatrical release would get a major audience boost- producers get the money, and the actors get a reputed name. Coming back to Zoe Saldana, it’s no doubt that she can be included in this list of actors whose presence can simply end up boosting ticket sales of the movie. And with…

Amid criticism of older superhero movies for being “more erratic,” Spider-Man actor Tobey Maguire paid tribute to them in a new interview. Many would argue that the past decade was the golden age of superhero films due to the dominance of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with other franchises bringing top-level movies into the genre as well. However, before the MCU’s triumph, Marvel was busy making films since before the turn of the millennium, with outings like Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy and Fox’s X-Men taking center stage. While many have considered Spider-Man and the X-Men movies successful, there is still no shortage of criticism toward other projects such as 2003’s Daredevil, both Fantastic Four franchises, and 2007’s Ghost Rider. Now, Maguire has…

What exactly is the main goal of the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Ever since 2008’s Iron Man, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has been hard at work with other creatives in making some of the best comic book movie content ever to exist. Needless to say, they’ve been quite successful, seeing as the MCU has been going strong for nearly fifteen years at this point. Feige and company don’t even let those superhero fatigue naysayers get to them, feeling confident that their strength is in being able to utilize any genre they want. But how do they do it? What exactly makes it all work? According to…

Around six years before the Roswell incident, a mysterious stories of a crashed UFO with alien bodies occurred in Missouri. In the Spring of 1941, Reverend William Huffman was summoned to pray over crash victims outside of Cape Girardeau, Missouri. When the military arrived everyone was sworn to secrecy. He was shown three victims, however not human as expected, but small alien bodies with large eyes, hardly a mouth or ears, and hairless. Yet upon returning home to 1530 Main Street, rev.

Paul Hellyer was Canadian minister of Defense in 1960s, ruling over the country’s armed forces during the time of the Cold War – and when he retired he publicly stated that we are not alone in the universe, and some guests from outer space actually live here, on planet Earth. Is this fantasy? Is someone actually watching us? Back in 2013 RT asked some questions to the man who says UFOs are a serious business. Sophie Shevardnadze: Our guest today is the Honorable Paul Hellyer, former minister of Defense of Canada, and he believes that life forms from space are present…

Since the first use of electric lamps in the 19th century, society hasn’t looked back. Homes and streets are lit at all hours so that people can go about their business when they’d once have been asleep. Besides the obvious benefits to societies and the economy, there’s growing awareness of the negative impact of artificial light. Light pollution has been blamed for wasting energy, disrupting wildlife behaviour and harming mental health. One aspect has avoided the spotlight though. Namely, that light not only allows one to see, but also to be seen. This could well attract unwelcome attention – and…

The sea pen made its appearance during a visit by a remotely operated vehicle, or ROV, to an unexplored seamount near Johnston Atoll, a remote spot to the west of Hawaii in the Pacific. It was unexpected. This is the first time this animal has been spotted in the Pacific. It’s normally found in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. The Nautilus came across two examples during the dive. A video shot at a depth of 9,823 feet (2,994 meters) shows the moment of discovery, along with commentary from excited researchers. “That looks wicked,” says one of them after the ROV…

When Mark Wong set out to analyze 489 entomological studies spanning every continent, major habitat and biome on Earth, he had a simple goal: Count the ants. The journey to a final answer was long, and often tedious. Then, one day, Wong and fellow ant experts came out on the other side. According to a new paper published Monday in the journal PNAS, the international team of scientists suggests there are a whopping 20 quadrillion ants roaming our planet right now. That’s 20,000,000,000,000,000 of those six-legged worker insects you catch pollinating plants, dispersing seeds like little gardeners and salivating at the aftermath of a…

Please welcome a new iceberg to the planet. The British Antarctic Survey monitors activities on the Brunt Ice Shelf along the Weddell Sea in Antarctica. BAS announced the fresh berg in a statement on Monday, saying, “It calved after cracks that have been developing naturally over the last few years extended across the entire ice shelf, causing the new iceberg to break free.” Chasm-1 along the Brunt Ice Shelf finally spawned a fresh giant iceberg in early 2023. The new berg clocks in at about 600 square miles (1,550 square kilometers), making it roughly the size of Greater London. It takes quite…

James Gunn upon arrival in DC completely reshuffled the universe by removing Henry Cavill from his Superman role and Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam. They purged Zack Snyder’s SnyderVerse and made a statement about creating a new Justice League. Some say James Gunn and Peter Safran have arrived at the correct time to save the dying universe, while some disagree. Amidst all this shuffle from SnyderVerse to the Bible, James Gunn’s wife Jennifer Holland has already appeared in multiple movies and is also said to star in the upcoming Shazam movie, Shazam! Fury of The Gods, the sequel to the first movie released in…

As Marvel Studios looks to cast the leading quartet of actors for Fantastic Four in the MCU, a new rumor further suggested that fan-favorite Ryan Gosling is on the studio’s radar. Gosling has been rumored to join the MCU for a long time, with potential roles ranging between characters like Nova and Sentry as the franchise expands further into the Multiverse Saga. The Oscar-nominated star has been quick to debunk those rumors, although he’s shared aspirations to join the franchise at some point, specifically mentioning Ghost Rider as a character he’d love to play. Meanwhile, Marvel Studios has plenty of work to do casting for multiple projects in Phase 5 and Phase…

Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania is close to its release; Jeff Loveness, the head writer of the third film revealed how Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of The Ring heavily inspired him with the plot and theme of the third sequel of the film. Throughout the interview, the name of the franchise was repeated, which hints to the audience about the theme of the third Ant-Man movie. Jeff Loveness had heaping admiration for the film where he compliments the film for its layered plot as well as having multiple themes, calling the movie the “charm of old times.” Paul Rudd as Ant-Man Is Ant-Man 3 Inspired by Lord…

Some ancient artifacts are truly puzzling. They are so large in size and heavy that it’s impossible to even consider that they could have been used by normal-sized human beings. Ancient Minoan giant double axes. © Image credit: Woodlandbard.com So, what was the purpose of these ancient giant axes? Were they merely produced as symbolic ceremonial objects or used by beings of giant stature? Axes that are larger than humans cannot be used in battles or serve as agricultural tools. Minoan Labrys: The term, and the symbol, is most closely associated in historical records with the Minoan civilization, which reached…

At the bottom of the Indian Ocean, at a depth of more than 17,000 feet, lies a shark graveyard. The elasmobranch cemetery, discovered in October by scientists aboard an Australian research vessel, contained more than 750 fossilized shark teeth, representing both modern and ancient sharks. The surprising find was made during a trawl survey conducted aboard the RV Investigator, a research vessel operated by Australia’s national science agency, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, or the CSIRO. A huge trawl net was dragged along the ocean floor, gathering up the bounty of pointy teeth from a variety of species,…
