Scientists discover potentially habitable planets
For the first time, an international team of astronomers from MIT, the University of Liège in Belgium, and elsewhere have detected three planets orbiting an ultracool dwarf star, just 40 light years from Earth. The sizes and temperatures of these worlds are comparable to those of Earth and Venus, and are the best targets found so far for the search for life outside the solar system.

Space weather and extraterrestrial visitation
In 2001, Steve Pearse published a paper on space weather and extraterrestrial visitation. It is well known that UFO sightings often come in so-called flaps. in his paper, Pearse discovered, among other things, a correlation between solar cycles and UFO activity.
He has now updated his paper, including additional data for the 2001-2015 period.

Interview with Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14
Roswell July 5, 2004
"I think I’ve reached the point that I'm convinced enough of the reality of the ET presence and I’m not going to deny it and shy away from it… It is time to open this up to the public."
Astronaut Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14
Paola: It is a pleasure to see you here in Roswell. I think that you said that you grew up in this area. I think you said that you lived here when you were about 3 to 13 years old?
Mitchell: I lived here from when I was five until I went off to College. We had a family business in the valley. It was between Roswell and Artesia.
Paola: Friends talked you into coming to speak here at the UFO museum?
Mitchell: I resisted for a long time.
Paola: Did you resist because it was connected with the UFO phenomenon?

The 2016 Spring semester of courses starts at the Exopolitics Institute
It's all over the news: Hillary Clinton thinks we may have been visited by extraterrestrials and wants to get to the bottom of that.
You can already do that now, and find out more about the extraterrestrial presence on Earth.
The courses at the Exopolitics Institute aim to provide you with a framework of knowledge to help you tell fact from fiction.
The new semester starts on 18 January 2016. Three courses are on offer:
- Introduction to exopolitics: http://www.exopoliticssouthafrica.org/exo-101.htm,
- Developing the road to disclosure: http://www.exopoliticssouthafrica.org/exo-106.htm and
- The Role of Hollywood and the Media in the Disclosure Process: http://exopoliticsinstitute.org/?page_id=1138
The Crucifixion, Alien Abduction and the New Human
by Wendy Flentri
On 14 August 2015 the first in a series of three webinar interviews with Andromedan contactee Alex Collier took place. (It was published on YouTube on 7 November 2015). What caught my attention most was the statement he made in regards to the Biblical Jesus. Having been investigated by the Andromedans, Jesus was determined to be a composite character: the main Christ was named as the rebel Rabbi Joshua Malatiel, whose bones were found recently with others in a cave on Mount Masada, in Israel, along with several ancient manuscripts. Found in an ossuary his remains were the oldest in the cave at 70 odd years. If the main Jesus, i.e. Joshua Malatiel, had lived into his seventies, then who was crucified as Jesus?
In August last year, Dr Courtney Brown, mathematician and a world expert in remote viewing, posted his account of a fascinating remote viewing session, carried out under scientific experimental conditions, with target: the Crucifixion. What had prompted this investigation?

Nearby star hosts closest alien planet in the “habitable zone”
EXOPLANET WOLF 1061:
UNSW Australia astronomers have discovered the closest POTENTIALLY HABITABLE planet found outside our solar system so far, orbiting a star just 14 light years away…“While a few other planets have been found that orbit stars closer to us than Wolf 1061, those planets are not considered to be remotely habitable”
Book Review of "UFOS over Poland" by Piotr Cielebias
UFOS OVER POLAND – The Land of High Strangeness
Author: Piotr Cielebias
Publisher: FLYING DISK PRESS
Book review by John Ventre
Piotr Cielebias has created a surprisingly interesting and detailed account of UFO cases in Poland. I love his title of “UFOs over Poland” since I have written a book called “UFOs over Pennsylvania” and I also do a talk show called “UFOs over Pittsburgh”. I agree that there is a link of lore to modern UFO cases, Ufologists need funding for their research and not all of the best cases took place 70 years ago. It was interesting to learn that Poland’s first flying disk case occurred in 1922 and that 22% of Poland’s population was killed by the Nazi’s. There is an underlying theme in this book of UFOs and/or the paranormal.

Closest Earth-size Alien Planet Found, May Be a Venus Twin
A newly discovered planet 39 light-years away is being called the closest Earth-size exoplanet ever discovered — and a potential "Venus Twin" — providing the mouth-watering opportunity for a close-up look at the environment on a rocky alien world.

Where to look for life? Astronomers devise 'habitability index' to guide future search
Astronomers have created a way to compare and rank exoplanets to help prioritize which of the thousands discovered warrant close inspection in the search for life beyond Earth.
Legal implications of ET encounters
A very interesting article on the subject was published here:
Babak Shakouri Hassanabadi, "Legal implications of an encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence," in The Space Review, 15 June 2015, http://www.thespacereview.com/article/2770/1
Michael Salla wrote a commentary on the article, which can be found here:
Michael Salla, "Extraterrestrial contact: international law and crimes against humanity," in The Examiner, 20 June 2015, http://www.examiner.com/article/extr...ainst-humanity
UPDATE: On 27 June, one week after the article was published, Michael Salla's article was removed from The Examiner, and he was removed as an author. A copy can, however, still be found at: http://exopolitics.org/extraterrestrial-contact-international-law-crimes-against-humanity/
Ceres Spots Continue to Mystify in Latest Dawn Images
The closer we get to Ceres, the more intriguing the distant dwarf planet becomes. New images of Ceres from NASA’s Dawn spacecraft provide more clues about its mysterious bright spots, and also reveal a pyramid-shaped peak towering over a relatively flat landscape.
