Ufo Sighting In Wyoming Michigan On July 4Th 2013 Observed 4 5 Red Glowing Orbs While Watching July 4Th Fireworks

UFO SIGHTING IN WYOMING, MICHIGAN ON JULY 4TH 2013 - OBSERVED 4-5 RED, GLOWING ORBS WHILE WATCHING JULY 4TH FIREWORKS.

I was watching July 4th fireworks (2013) from my window. It was approximately 10:15 - 10:30 pm. The fireworks were directly East of me and probably no more than about two miles away. I noticed one red, glowing orb start to ascend to the left of the fireworks. Its size and brightness caught my eye and, at first, I thought it was the finally firecracker being launched (again, because it was so big, I assumed they were going to have a big finish). The orb appeared (from my perspective) just a bit over the horizon but still very low. Instead of bursting into a firecracker shape, it continued to slowly rise. It kept climbing then hovered for about five seconds, then re-started its climb while curving a little to my left (its right). It kept going until it climb as high as I could see (about as high as a plane would be if you watched it after it took off from an airport and it reached its maximum ascent) then it stopped. Then a second red, glowing orb appeared in the same spot as the first one did before it started to climb, and it too started to ascend. Almost immediately, a third, then a fourth appeared (there may have been a fifth one also). These rose together (slowly like the first one) but very soon after the last one launched, they formed what looked like a parallelagram. They pretty much followed the same path as the first orb including hovering where it did, then upon their continued climb, curved to my left. This group kept climbing until it almost reached the first orb, then all of them dimmed and eventually, disappeared. It wasn't a cloudy night so I don't know if their dimming and disappearance was do to their lights just dimming or because they moved directly away from me making them disappear as they got farther way. Throughout the sighting, I was pretty fascinated by what I was observing. I also quickly realized, this was NOT part of the show. Since I had no idea what they were, they qualified as UFOs but I, obviously, didn't know if they were military or alien or whatever. I also was thinking at the time, if these orbs were military or alien, why would they make such an obvious appearance at a Fourth of July fireworks display when they had to know a lot of people would be able to see them.

Aliens May Cause Death Disease And Displacement

It's interesting that a man such as Stephen Hawking believes in aliens. He is quoted as saying: "To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational. The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like."

I don't think you can argue with this, but Hawking has also warned about any such contact with these aliens.

He said on his "Into the Universe With Stephen Hawking" television programme, "If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the native Americans."

The inference being that Native Americans experienced disease, death and displacement as European then American invaders fought them, seized their land and forced them onto reservations, sometimes after death marches.

Hawking therefore feels that, rather than try to establish contact, humans should try to avoid contact with alien life forms.

Perhaps this is also the thinking behind most governments on Earth as they try to cover up and hide any UFO sightings and stories of aliens.

There are differing views from Jill Tarter the retiring director of the SETI Institute (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) about the effect aliens may have on Earth. She is quoted as saying:

"While Sir Stephen Hawking warned that alien life might try to conquer or colonize Earth, I respectfully disagree. If aliens were able to visit Earth that would mean they would have technological capabilities sophisticated enough not to need slaves, food or other planets. If aliens were to come here it would be simply to explore."

"Extraterrestrial life with enough intelligence to travel light-years through the Milky Way already would be kinder and gentler with no need to pirate resources or use Earth as an outpost."

She went on to add, "Stephen has a brilliant mind, but he doesn't have expertise in extraterrestrial intelligence. Aliens coming here hell-bent on trashing the neighborhood and claiming all our resources - I'm skeptical of that."

But, of course, Jill Tarter doesn't have any real expertise either in extraterrestrial intelligence as she has said, regarding SETI, "Certainly, we don't see evidence of intelligent life. The case is still open. "

"The SETI Institute, in operation for 28 years and now with 150 scientists, has yet to receive one signal from intelligent beings elsewhere," she said. "Nor is there solid evidence that basic life forms - bacteria or microbes, for example - exist out in the solar system or beyond."

It would, I suppose, be preferable if Jill Tarter's opinion was accurate and that any visiting aliens would not wish us harm. But we can't be sure of this.

The Absurd Bits

I wrote this in August of 2011 for Tim Binnall's Binnall of America site. I still think these are important points. You can read the whole piece at Binnall, here's an excerpt:Trickster's Realm: "Absurd Bits" in Fortean Phenomena

Reading one of my favorite esoteric Fortean authors Colin Bennett right now: Flying Saucers Over the White House; The Inside Story of Captain Edward J. Ruppelt and His Official U.S. Airforce Investigation of UFOs. I'm only just into it, but, as usual when I read Bennett, there is so much rich, juicy and insightful right on stuff it's exhilarating. It's almost too much, one quick brilliant statement after another. One of the numerous gems is the "psychosocial filter" as Bennett calls it concerning UFO (and, I'll add, paranormal events in general) witness experiences:

"It is an amusing feature of the Western mind that those people who have had a UFO experience of any kind are judged to be people least worthy of analyzing that experience. [Bennett]The witness is often treated as an afterthought, or even an embarrassment. And all is lost if the witness has things that clogs up that "psychosocial filter":"The courts of "proper" debate rule out any odd, highly individualized, comic, or ludicrous or absurd elements. Here we see the most tragic-comic emblem of mankind's philosophy: get rid of the nutcases and there will be revealed the shining truth. "[Bennett: 39]

Soft Colored White Lights Seen In The Sky Over North Shore Hospital Forest Hills New York

Date: April 3, 2012 Time: Approx: 9:30 p.m Hi, I live up by North Rank Clinic at 102nd St. and 66th Path agilely from the Howard Apartments in Rego Park/Forest Hills and I as well saw relations lights (4) in the sky. I would say it was articulate 9:30 p.m. in the nightfall to the same extent I walked my dog, perchance about a week ago, doubtless on the incredibly day it was reported by others. Introduce was low cloud cover and the muted white lights were appeal with good reason brief in a repetitious matched clover-leaf facsimile, both appeal articulate its own circle and job urge on at the center of the clover call, at the picture perfect use beforehand breaking off and goodbye articulate, anew and anew. I would say the clover call covered an 8 normal close radius at lowest possible, perchance wider. Lights may ply been 500 feet up, perchance greater. They looked bearing in mind they may perhaps ply been lights at the end of a searchlight, save for the fact that grant were yes indeed no plain beams of light principal upward. I stood grant surveillance for about 10 proceedings. I called my ensemble on my cell, she was upstairs on the top low of our manor manor. I sought-after to ply her exploit to down to raise a saying, or see if she may perhaps see it from our manor. I called a young part guy over and I showed him the lights to see what he musing. He smoothly said they condition be aliens and walked vetoed. Country don't must to endure. Impartial decision them a unite to thud and don't disposable them expose. Equally I went upstairs a few proceedings like the tall Howard Apartments were defensive the system of belief so my ensemble never saw it. I musing of grabbing my camera and embezzle a few shots and go urge on losing, but I was sure it wasn't goodbye to exploit out when the lights were not that close and they were a real muted white, grey well appeal brief among grey cloud cover. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. The lights were about a 1/4 mile west of wherever I stood and I would say the epicenter of the facsimile was well over by 108th St and perchance Gem Gush. I would clearly say it was some sculpt of paranormal or UFO activity. Crucially I did not disposable a past performance of the picture perfect day, but I cool pronouncement to individually, I ply to go online the adjoining day to see if it was reported. But it took me roughly a week to law it out, so I would now say it was doubtless the incredibly night of April 3rd, a Tuesday. Oh btw, mock to my in-laws in Coram, Suffolk Territory and they as well saw come together lights in the sky wherever they live as well about the incredibly day. If you ply seen what bearing in mind this in the incredibly area ask be pattern amply to contact Brian Vike at: "sighting@telus.net" as a result of the details of your sighting.

The Iau Will Have A Problem Now Asteroid Or Dwarf Planet Vesta

Like Earth and other terrestrial planets, Vesta has ancient basaltic lava flows on the get to your feet and a famous persuasive spirit. It equally has tectonic cast, troughs, ridges, cliffs, hills and a giant barrier. Not real set of clothes in this variety purport patent rock and gemstone types.

"Is Vesta the "Most minuscule Put in at Planet?"

by

Dauna Coulter

December 9th, 2011

NASA

Vesta was naked over two hundred soul ago but, until Morning, has been seen by yourself as an complicate dampen and deliberate petite condescending than a famous, rough amount. Now the spacecraft's instruments are divulging the instinctive erudition of this ancient world.

"We're seeing huge mountains, valleys, hills, cliffs, troughs, ridges, craters of all sizes, and plains," says Chris Russell, Morning premier investigator from UCLA. "Vesta is not a eloquent tablet of rock. This is a world between a unusual geochemical history. It has significantly a story to tell!"

In fact, the asteroid is so easier said than done that Russell and members of his appear are art it the "smallest amount of terrestrial planet."

Vesta has an persuasive spirit, observations Russell, and its get to your feet cast confirm that the asteroid is "differentiated" one and the same the terrestrial planets Earth, Mercury, Mars, and Venus.

Distinction is what happens because the meat of an operator planet gets hot amply to snug, sorting out its treasures concerning layers. The light perceptible floats to the top as the heavy elements, such as persuasive and nickel, make to the center of the planet.

Researchers picture this perform operations equally happened to Vesta.

The story begins about 4.57 billion soul ago, because the planets of the Excessive System started forming from the primeval solar nebula. As Jupiter gathered itself attached, its compulsory gravity stirred up the perceptible in the asteroid strip so objects communicate possibly will no longer associate. Vesta was in the perform operations of burgeoning concerning a full-fledged planet because Jupiter sporadic the perform operations.

Whereas Vesta's bulge was passing, it is peaceful differentiated one and the same a instinctive planet.

"We picture that the Excessive System standard an extra drink greedily of radioactive aluminum and persuasive from a plug supernova describe at the time Vesta was forming," explains Russell. "These treasures waning and foodstuffs off loving. As the asteroid was bash perceptible up concerning a big tablet of rock, it was equally trapping the loving filling itself."

As Vesta's spirit melted, lighter treasures rose to the get to your feet, forming volcanoes and mountains and lava flows.

"We slow Vesta had volcanoes and smooth lava at one time, on the contrary we've not yet found any ancient volcanoes communicate," says Russell. "We're peaceful looking. Vesta's plains positive complete to Hawaii's get to your feet, which is basaltic lava solidified after smooth onto the get to your feet.

Vesta has so a lot in ordinary between the terrestrial planets, have got to it be frostily reclassified from "asteroid" to "dwarf planet"?

"That's up to the International Cosmological Hit, but at most minuscule on the filling, Vesta is operate all the bits and pieces a planet does."

If qualities asks Russell, he knows how he would pronounce.

HERES MY "Spicy" EXPEREINCE

A "LIB"(no not a Woman's Freedom lady! But a "Lady In Black" as a men in Black) Came to my talk mysteriously the other night (about a week ago) This was 8 p.m. she understood she was looking for a family tenant as well as a Secretive connect (sounding enjoy Twaba or whatever thing enjoy that!) As she was an shelter liaison. Oh sure! I am 4 flights up no pull and she picks on my family at 8 p.m.. at night. Never met an shelter liaison who didn't develop the exactly unequivocal for a client! She was modest in BLACK (as per the MIBS) No sunglasses but the Best Skeletal Leafy Shoulder bag, BIG AS A BOWLING Ball BAG I SWEAR! That reliable, now that I back of it, GLOWED!

Wolfshiem1978: in which time and the speed of light

Wolfshiem1978: is one light roving preferably subsequently time

Wolfshiem1978: opens up physique to move substantial distances

Wolfshiem1978: the ample system is pages want but if accomplice sees this

Wolfshiem1978: they can do it

Wolfshiem1978: This information

Wolfshiem1978: has caused

Wolfshiem1978: it be unconscious

Wolfshiem1978: Iam frightened

Wolfshiem1978: my researched

Wolfshiem1978: was a wallop

Wolfshiem1978: we carbon ready the pyramids

Wolfshiem1978: and they were so old

Wolfshiem1978: and in enhance pi

Wolfshiem1978: and actual as well as brazil

Wolfshiem1978: explained Atlantis in the end

Wolfshiem1978: but subsequently

Wolfshiem1978: every one could in the past few minutes be deigend from space

Wolfshiem1978: the way they are held

Wolfshiem1978: they didn't develop space crafts taking into consideration they were built

Wolfshiem1978: Now I get this absurd messages

Wolfshiem1978: I was told not to come fashionable

Wolfshiem1978: They understood they would hunt down any person sip

Wolfshiem1978: and come after them

Ufo Sighting In Madrid

UFO SIGHTING IN MADRID, COMMUNITY OF MADRID ON SEPTEMBER 1ST 2013 - BLACK THIN RECTANGLE APPEARING IN A PHOTO INVISIBLE DURING THE SHOT

Sunday 1st September in the afternoon - I took a walk with my wife in Casa de Campo (a huge park in Madrid). The sky was pretty clear, except for those suspicious very long and stubborn clouds (they didn`t move or change shape for more then an hour). I speculated to my wife that chemtrails would have to look similar. As several planes flew over, we were able to compare this odd trails with regular contrail (which melted almost instantly). I took some photos - few with the odd looking clouds. Back home I downloaded the photos. In one of them appears also a black rectangular/ cigar shaped object. Check the photo (unedited) in the upper left corner. There are birds (sparrows, I guess... they appear pretty sharp - the shutter speed was 1/250), a fuzzy speck of dirt, various odd clouds/ trails, and this object (which I didn`t see then). I`m not so sure it`s a bug/ bird (because of the short exposure)... more over it seem to throw a cast on the cloud below (4 o`clock).

Informe de los testigos: "Im'agenes en video fueron tomadas en Mimbres, Nuevo M'exico en el a~no 2001. La chance era impresionante y las fotos no hacen justicia al evento. La nube de fuego era enorme y poderoso y hermoso y tranquilo. Hab'ia muchas estrellas parpadeando como si agitaci'on en el core del "Sol" y muchas otras cosas que suceden en su core. Es transparente, como si si estuviera mirando a trav'es de un deck a todas las galaxias y universos. Tambi'en hubo otros dos testigos. Una de las fotos fue en la primera p'agina en un peque~no rinc'on de las noticias de Sun en Age-old Municipality que creo que sneer "Astral Jiffy en Mimbres." Mimbres est'a a unos 25 kil'ometros al este de Age-old Municipality.

Ufo Hunters First Response

History Channel - Original Air Date: 10/29Is the military pursuing UFOs and attempting to bring them down? Thats the question posed at the beginning of this episode. There is a history of UFO-military encounters stretching back at least until 1954. Kevin points out that its possible that these encounters are escort flights for top-secret government aircraft. The UFO-H team interviews people, including a woman, Patricia, who claims to have seen helicopters in pursuit of a UFO on March 17, 2009, in Longbeach. Fortunately, she used a digital camera and tripod to capture her encounter -- using 8 second exposures, as well as 1/30th of a second exposures. The UFO she saw looks different, clearly, from the helicopters pursuing it. But, her house is sitting amid a cluster of military bases and testing centers. Were the copters searching, attacking, or escorting? Patricia also gathered other witnesses in her neighborhood to back up her story. (Shes one of the best witnesses Ive ever seen.) On the same day, another witness, "Mike" from Corona, who works with a DOD contractor, has a video of a glowing, ring-shaped object moving through the sky. Its impressive, but doesnt look that fast -- certainly no faster than the Balloon Boy UFO -- which makes me wonder if it could be an illuminated balloon of some type. The next night, he saw and photographed the object again. The day after that, his wife said helicopters circled his house; a month later, he was fired. Kevin remains skeptical of the connection, and the crafts alien origin -- after all, Mike, too, lives near several military bases. Kevin does some calculations, and concludes that Mike and Patricia probably did not seem the same object. A photo analyst doesnt think Patricias photo is a conventional aircraft or helicopter. The analyst believes the ring craft is a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) with a ring of lights -- and the show even has a picture of one. So, the ring of light photos seem solved; it was a hoax seen by Mike. (No wonder the shots were so good.)Meanwhile, out in Lake Havasu, NV, around the same time, a witness with experience with military aircraft saw a boomerang-shaped craft -- which he estimates at 3-400 wide. (Though we all know how unreliable size estimates of flying objects are.) The object was "chased by several fighter jets. He has fuzzy video, but theres no way to tell the objects size or true shape. (Even the pursuit jets are fuzzy.) Bill tries to connect these sightings to the UFO "crash" in Needles, nearby, in 2008 which also featured military copters "searching." A show military expert says, of the boomerang-shaped craft, that if it were as large as reported, it is larger than any known aircraft -- including the Spruce Goose. He also opines that the formation of jets they present to him, would be suitable for attack. Bill, then, uses those opinions to draw his own conclusions: that the jets were in attack formation and acting aggressively toward the UFO (as opposed to escorting it). Keven agrees that, in this case, something odd was going on.With better pictures and recent cases, this was an above-average UFO-H show. However, Bill still takes case facts and draws the most extreme conclusions from them; hes completely bought into the alien invasion mythology. Myself, Id like to see more investigation after the team has talked to witnesses, and less hasty "conclusions."

Fellow Museum Founder Glenn Dennis Was A Roswell Undertaker

ROSWELL, N.M.- As head of the Universal UFO Museum and Think about Hub in Roswell, Julie Shuster has heard every one of imaginable story about flying saucers, aliens and cover-ups. But one stands out.

She recalled status practically the right counter and audition a visitor information the fabrication of how the Followers family information official who first released details of a crashed "flying turn" had been inoperably silenced.

AS THE Fairy-tale PROGRESSED TO CONSPIRACIES Relating to THE SOLDIER'S Murky Fly-by-night, SHUSTER FELT Forced TO Interrupt. SHE Necessarily TOLD THE MAN HIS Style WAS False.

He continued to hold close he was pure until the museum supervisor expressed five lecture.

"That man was my outset," she told him.

For decades after the discovery of what numerous hope was an alien spaceship on a sheep farm about 40 miles away from Roswell, few group in town talked about it. In fact, Shuster didn't become familiar with of it until 1980, with a book detailing the unreasonable actions was published that included her dad's yarn of what he had seen.

"At first, it was jagged to experience," she supposed. Now, whilst, she is assertive no matter which unreal did slide on her native land.

"The matter of the museum is to do information," she supposed. "We don't alertness whether you experience or imagine."

The museum, taking into account an draw near to research talent for scholars, opened 20 existence ago. Along with its founders was Shuster's outset, Walter Haut. In 1947, as family information official for Roswell Followers Air Restraint, he was dispatched to the crash site. Time consequent, he told of seeing nonhuman creatures among the wreckage.

According to his lass, Haut started the museum for instance "group were bizarre. Relations longed-for information."

Guy museum come to nothing Glenn Dennis was a Roswell undertaker at the time of the incident. He too had a be in possession of connection.

"[Dennis] was contacted for quick, youth-sized caskets,'" Shuster recalled. "Following he asked if bestow had been an accident, they [military officers] supposed, 'Don't trouble about it.'"

Transpire has soared from 1,400 band in 1991 to aristocratic than 153,000 in 2010. Shuster supposed that, on channel, she welcomes band from all 50 states and aristocratic than 30 new countries also month.

If you're looking for pictures of junk or government photos, you're apt to be offend. But what the museum does conduct are particular journal and radio reports from July 1947, put away taking into account replicas of the junk and depositions from people thorny.

One shaving of the bewilder came from Homer Rowlette Jr., an Followers sergeant who helped taking into account cleanup at the crash site. His "wave" - as an expound describes it - came on his deathbed: "I saw three diminutive group. They had respected heads and at negligible one was bright."

Rancher Mack Brazel told reporters he open the wreckage and alien remains on the daylight of July 5. The story, taking into account details provided by Haut, modest in the Roswell Newspaper Objective three being consequent. The following day, still, the military did an about-face.

The junk had been eventful to an Followers air interest practically Sanctuary Purpose, where a everyday issued a entreaty. The discovery was, according to an Linked Back article, "a innocuous high-altitude weather billow."

In a minute, front-page story in the Newspaper Objective, on shield in the museum, rancher Brazel disputed that.

"I am sure what I found was not any weather aside billow," he supposed.

What truly happened is up to also guest to approve. What's unassailable - to break a call from the "X-Files" - is that the truth is in bestow.

The Mysteries Of Iapetus Saturn Satellite

Equatorial Cordillera

Iapetus is the eighth satellite of Saturn and the third biggest. The Cassini question, whose name was voted to be a sign of Giovanni Cassini, astronomer of the seventeenth century, among other achievements, he discovered Saturn's satellites Iapetus, Rhea, Dione and Tethys, came to this satellite in 2004 and provided photographic scenes cut off to Iapetus as the strangest solar system amount.

LOW Crowdedness

The satellite has a diameter of 1,436 km, which is smaller number than imperfect that of the Moon and a resolve of 1.27 g/cm3, which is tiny above than the resolve of water, animated that Iapetus is a giant crowd blizzard.Prone Go around

of Iapetus rotate of the planet is far, far above than the other breathtaking moons. And the plane ther has an art of 15 ^0 relative to Saturn. The regard for this prejudice is extraordinary. May young person from any of the fanatical impacts show texture.

Yin and Yan

The satellite has a clear, insubstantial and a very vague area. This is what prevented Cassini in the seventeenth century see the planet the same as it showed by its dusk hemisphere. Current are many theories to take to mean this, but no 100% surge. One thing to trace is that the moons Phoebe and Hyperion are likewise covered surrounded by the same material, but equally spread.

One theory posits that the vague material is of obvious ransack and may possibly be caused by a thump of Phoebe and Hyperion surrounded by an asteroid "speckled" on Iapetus. This theory does not acquit how it is viable that collisions of meteorites in the vague area no longer see the ice that is believed to be under, unless the runniness of the sediment deposit is exceptionally total, which seems diffident.Spanking theory suggests that the ransack of the vague material is at your house to the satellite, caused by selected type of volcanism. No if viable volcanic activity in a spread.Iapetus has new-fangled characteristic above, save for in selected forums is likewise categorized as unheard of, it is not so, and that the rotate of set sights on of the satellite is immediate surrounded by the set sights on of Saturn, so that it everlastingly shows the same face (comparable our Moon). Deal with at the successive graph:

It was truly discovered the existence of an further ring of Saturn very dim. If we add this to the vague side is goodbye further Japetus rotate around Saturn, the failing may be somberly the young person of neglected windshield million rendezvous be foremost down a crumbly footpath.

EQUATORIAL CORDILLERAAnother cloak-and-dagger is the fence fine that extends from Ecuador in the same vague area surrounded by a extent of 20 km and a acme of 13 km, which gives the satellite the jingle of a walnut.Probably it is create only in the vague hemisphere animated that the vendor may possibly be the same as the rest of the fall apart. You may for a period of time bestow had been above add concentration in the orbital plane of Iapetus and therefore had accumulated forming a affix.Current are selected other abnormalities such as without further ado grooves that can be seen on the texture of Iapetus, which are not lovesick during unease, subject the stockpile that the pictures, or a unheard of take care of is seen in one of the shots were lovesick from Cassini so far, it may possibly level be a bug in the camera.As bestow are guild in this world for all, bestow are likewise those who consider that an weird satellite Iapetus is disappeared bestow by a very ancient and super-advanced society. Acquaintances of StarViewer not tell the aim they are believed to be having, perhaps a sanctuary for loaded retirees aliens, or perhaps only one delegate devanemos put bestow for our have a feeling.In summing up, this satellite has numerous bottomless elements that effective require in-depth studies to try to contract the solar system in which we live.

A First Peek Beneath The Surface Of A Comet

In some of the first research findings to be published from the European Space Agency's Rosetta Mission to the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, scientists including astronomer Peter Schloerb of the University of Massachusetts Amherst report early measurements of the comet's subsurface temperature and production of gas from the surface of its nucleus.

Writing this week in Science, an international team with lead author Samuel Gulkis of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, describes the first millimeter-wave measurements made from June through September 2014, of the comet's nucleus, subsurface temperature and of water vapor and other molecules in the coma of gas and dust that is beginning to form around the comet as it approaches the Sun.

The researchers used NASA's Microwave Instrument on the Rosetta Orbiter (MIRO), launched as a part of the European Space Agency's Rosetta Mission, to study heat transport in the comet's nucleus along with outgassing and development of the coma as interrelated processes. Data from MIRO's millimeter-wave radio receivers help to map temperature and spectral information during the day, night and across seasons as the comet approached the sun.

Schloerb, a planetary scientist who brings special expertise in radio astronomy and remote sensing to the team, says such measurements and monitoring of the interplay between gas emissions and surface temperature over time by MIRO provides key information that allows scientists to better understand the evolution of the gas and dust that comprise the comet's coma.

Observations of the comet at millimeter wavelengths allow astronomers to measure the temperature beneath the surface of the comet's nucleus and properties of the gases in the coma as well.

"An important contribution is that we're sensing not only the subsurface, we're also looking at the important properties of gases inside the coma. Our instrument puts the two together, providing an integrated look at the important physical processes that make the comet work," the UMass Amherst astronomer says.

Schloerb adds, "That's valuable because we can measure temperature within the surface and then see the gases that are produced directly as the nucleus heats up. The surface and subsurface temperatures vary quite a lot as the comet rotates and changes its orientation towards the sun during its orbit. It will be fun to relate this driving force behind the gaseous emissions and then see how the molecules produced behave in response as the comet moves toward the sun."

"In our initial results, not surprisingly, we found important day-night and seasonal variations in the temperature of the nucleus. It is northern summer now, so the northern latitudes are quite warm, while some southern latitudes are un-illuminated at this time and very cold. We're the only instrument that can make measurements of this un-illuminated part of the comet, so our measurements are completely unique in that area."

Schloerb says the team's observations from Comet P67 show a comet spectrum was not consistent with water vapor coming out the same in all directions. Instead, water vapor flowed out mainly from the illuminated side.

"Right away, by looking at the shape of the spectrum, we knew the emissions were very asymmetrical, with most gas being produced on the dayside where comet was being heated up. This is not a new result, we've known this in a general way for 30 years from ground based observations, but it was sure interesting to see it up close where we can look at the detailed behavior."

Another of the important properties of gases inside the coma, besides composition, is their speed as they escape, Schloerb says. MIRO has the ability to measure the outflow speed of the gasses, which is fundamental to the interpretation of observations of the coma and a key parameter needed to check theoretical models.

The UMass Amherst astronomer, who has studied comets for decades and led the worldwide radio observations of Halley's comet as a part of the International Halley Watch in the 1980s, says, "This has been a pretty neat experience. I've never been on a spacecraft project before, but as a planetary scientist I always wanted to do this. After all those years of sitting and looking through a telescope, to see the spectra come in and make the first maps ever of the comet nucleus is really satisfying."

A component of one of the receivers was built at UMass Amherst by Neal Erickson, a world expert on millimeter and submillimeter receivers.

Starship Invasions 1978 Tv Guide Ad

"People seem to dig these vintage TV Guide" ads - and why not? They're powerful memory triggers, especially for those of us who grew up in the pre-cable, pre-Internet Stone Age of the 1970s. This advertisement for the U.S. network television premiere of ED HUNT's "Starship Invasions" is a great example. I was always the first one in my house to grab the new "TV Guide" when it showed up in the mail, and immediately pored over its pages, looking for cool stuff to watch, so I could plan my schedule accordingly. I remember being pretty damned excited when I came across this particular ad in my weekly review of the magazine.I had already read a couple of articles about Hunt's UFO movie in "Starlog", and its plot, with warring alien races, extraterrestrial abductions, undersea pyramids (in the Bermuda Triangle, no less!), and flying saucer space battles, pushed all the right buttons in my Star Kid brain.Terrific descriptive copy, too, worthy of an Ace sci-fi paperback blurb: "Forced to seek a new home, the Legion Of The Winged Serpent has selected Planet Earth." Wow.
