Extraterrestrial Intervention

MARCH 04, 2013 - RUSSIA - The meteorite that crashed on Russia was hit by an unidentified flying object causing it to explode and shatter over the Urals, it has been claimed. The bizarre theory is based on analysis of blurry footage of the space rock as it streaked across morning sky above the city of Chelyabinsk. U.F.O enthusiasts insist a small 'object' can be seen colliding with the meteorite on its trajectory through the atmosphere, despite the fact there were no reports of Russia launching missiles to down the celestial intruder, they claim. E.T. to the rescue? A new picture showing the Russian meteorite and what is claimed to be a U.F.O (ringed).Alien enthusiasts have have seized on the unexplained images as evidence that 'we were saved by a UFO'.The watchers have seized on the unexplained images and an online debate is now underway in Russia with claims that 'we were saved by a UFO', reported the Siberian Times. The meteorite exploded in the atmosphere on 15 February with a force as great as 30 Hiroshima nuclear bombs, causing extensive damage in Chelyabinsk and injuring around 1,200 people, many from shattered glass. Estimated by NASA to have been 55ft-wide and with a weight of some 10,000 tons, the meteor is thought to have exploded above the Ural mountains with a force equivalent to about 500kilotons. Nuclear installations in the Urals remained undamaged by the fallout. 'At first, we also believed that the Chelyabinsk meteorite was just an ordinary meteorite, a cosmic body,' said Alexander Komanev, coordinator for the Russian UFO community in Yekaterinburg. But on at least three films of the space rock 'you can see how an object catches the meteorite', he said. This minuscule oblong-shaped object "flies into it - and the meteorite explodes and falls'. He stressed: 'Such a number of videos, made from different angles, leads us to believe that something has blown up the meteorite...' He claimed that in the weeks before the meteorite, there was an upsurge in UFO sightings in the Urals, followed by none at all since the incident. Space rock: The 'U.F.O.' is seen close to the tail of the meteorite in another of the images. Evidence? Another shot of the Russian meteorite which exploded in the atmosphere with a force as great as 30 Hiroshima bombs. Proponents of the theory claim there was an upsurge in UFO sightings in the Urals, before the meteorite hit, followed by none at all since the incident.Footage seen ahead of the incident two 'glowing bowls' seen flying in the sky at night over the village of Chabry. Separately in day time, similar objects were seen over Chelyabinsk, it is claimed. On both occasions they moved across the sky, disappeared, and then returned. Russia has called for major international efforts to develop the technology zap incoming space objects, but there is no suggestion any military strike was made at the meteorite on 15 February which was not spotted in advance. Terrifying: Almost 1,200 people were injured when the meteor burst through the Earth's atmosphere at a speed of 46,000mph on Friday, blowing out the windows of 900 schools and hospitals and damaging around 100,000 homes. Ice hole: Experts said the meteor that left a 50-foot hole in a frozen lake on the outskirts of Chelyabinsk, in the Urals, weighed around 100,000 tonnes and measured 55 feet in diameter.The 100,000 tonne rock, measuring around 55 feet in diameter, created a huge hole in a frozen lake when it crashed into the ground. Scientists have found more than 50 tiny fragments of the meteor, allowing them to uncover information about its contents. Divers are believed to have located several lumps of the meteorite in Lake Chebarkul in Chelyabinsk region - DAILY MAIL.WATCH: Could this video prove Russian meteorite was shot down?

Planetary Formation In The Early Solar System And Would There Be Wars Between Extraterrestrial Civilizations

Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation. You may notice that this and future entries are shorter than usual; career, family and book deal commitments have forced me to cut back some of my projects. Now, here's today's news:

g ABODES -By comparing the composition of meteorites and planets like Earth and Mars, scientists are providing clues about planetary formation in the early solar system. The study also reveals how some of Earth's rarest metals may have come from space. See article.

g LIFE - Tons, perhaps tens of tons, of carbon molecules in dust particles and meteorites fall on Earth daily. Meteorites are especially valuable to astronomers because they provide relatively big chunks of carbon molecules that are easily analyzed in the laboratory. In the past few years, researchers have noticed that most meteorite carbon are molecules called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are very stable compounds and are survivors. See article.

g MESSAGE -A 12-inch gold plated copper disk containing recorded sounds and images representing human cultures and life on Earth - intended for extraterrestrial eyes and ears - is traveling about the galaxy. See article. Note; This article is from 1996.

g COSMICUS -Three Chinese astronauts landed safely back on earth on Sunday after a 68-hour voyage and space walk that showcased the country's technological mastery and were hailed as a major victory by its leaders. See article.

g IMAGINING -Would there be wars between extraterrestrial civilizations? Here's one common man's thoughts and a string of responses in a forum.

g AFTERMATH - Let's presume we have detected an extraterrestrial intelligence. We cannot tell for sure if the message was intended for us, or what it means. What should we do? Here are some speculations.
