New telescope forest sprouts in search for extraterrestrials

HAT CREEK VALLEY – In a meadow of one of Northern California’s pristine national forests, 2,000-pound radio telescopes are popping up like mushrooms.

Made of aluminum and resembling things out of the movie “Contact,” they point to the heavens and wait in silent attention. Scientists hope they will one day detect radio waves sent from a faraway planet.

Thousands of years after mankind first asked one of the most pressing philosophical questions – Are we alone in the universe? – Silicon Valley scientists are poised to bring us closer to an understanding.

The hunt for little green men has moved from Hollywood back lots to the Bay Area’s backyard.

“In many cultures throughout history, we’ve always wondered: Is there anybody else? Are we the only ones who can look up at the universe and wonder? I live in the first generation of humans that can try to answer this,” said Jill Tarter, director of the Center for the the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence at the SETI Institute in Mountain View.

Diving Into the Extra-terrestrial Phenomenon

(This is the first article of a unique serie)

Late in the evening, on a day of may 2006, I was arguing with my friend that he had never told me about the disclosure project. “I told you, but you wouldn’t listen…you didn’t want to waste time on this”. I didn’t even give him a chance to show me? This is typical people’s reaction to the first exposure on the subject. I was in the same boat and reacted exactly like people do now when they are exposed to the subject.

We were working on another Xbox title at the time. A good friend came over to my desk, and told me he had found something very interesting on Google Video. In need of a break, we both sat and started watching what would trigger a turning point in my life. I hear Jon Cypher introduce Dr. Steven Greer, still curious as to what my friend is showing me. This was the Disclosure Project National Press Club Conference video.

…We are here today, to disclose the truth about a subject that has been ridiculed, questioned, denied for at least 50 years…to the so called UFO matter and extra-terrestrial intelligence, can prove and will prove that we are not alone…

My jaw dropped, I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I looked at my friend and said: “Is this true?”. He confirmed, saying this is the real deal. I watched the entire video, one witness after the other, almost in shock. This would be what would launch a lifetime pursuit for the truth.

From there, I began reading pretty much everything I found and watched every video I could about The Disclosure Project, CSETI, Steven Greer and all the witnesses that were present at the Disclosure Project National Press Club Conference. For days, all the spare time I had was to research. And slowly I was gathering knowledge that would lead me to take my first trip outside Canada. The destination was Mt. Shasta in California. There, I would met with Steven Greer, his team and some 30-40 people that were also looking to get some answers.

It was not an easy decision to make, as people would realize, those expeditions at first might seem costly. Costly trip, lodging and the training fee. At the time, I realized that I was taking a risk to spend a large sum of money and might come back without any answers to my questions. A risk that paid off, as you will see in my next articles.

So I went prepared, unlike some other people that were present that week of September 2006. I read through the entire Training kit, listened to all the CD’s and read : “Hidden Truth – Forbidden Knowledge”. I could hardly sleep for 4 days, as my understanding of this world shifted into the reality of covert operations, corrupted agents, corporate operations without any kind of oversight. Things wouldn’t be simple anymore. I couldn’t just sit in front of my computer days and nights. For the good of my sons and the children of this planet, I had to Act!

The first step would be to head to the training, learn what I could and see from there what would be the next step. I can tell you, a week long of lectures, remote view exercises, and field work was just amazing. I shared room with 3 guys, that quickly became friends. Two of them were from Vancouver, a Father and Son. Luckily, I got in touch with him before leaving Ottawa and was able to get some crucial information before heading to California. He gave me some insights on gear, and he also told me what he had experienced just a year ago, at the same spot, with CSETI. This was his 2nd trip with CSETI I believe.

I also connected with a young guy from Ireland and we touch base on occasions. Another man that was with us is a crop circle and consciousness specialist from Denmark. Amazing guy, with an amazing spirit. Had the best time I had in a long time with all of them. One gentleman from the U.S. also offered to share car rental, so he picked up us in Redding. I’ve stayed in contact with him ever since.

(In the next article, I’ll give details on my first CSETI expedition experience.)

SETI’s Search for ET Goes Exponential

SETI’s hunt for ET is revving up to warp speed, thanks largely to an infusion of $25 million from Seattle’s most famous science-fiction fan, Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen.

Allen will join scientists from SETI — the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence — to unveil the Allen Telescope Array devoted to answering the question: Is anyone out there? The observatory consists of an array of 42 radio dishes perched atop a volcanic plateau in Hat Creek, 300 miles northeast of San Francisco.

“It’s the longshot of longshots, but if we did hear a signal from another civilization, that would be world-changing,” said Allen, in an interview with the Seattle Times. Allen’s investment was half the $50 million price tag for the observatory in Hat Creek, Calif.

The first mission for the Allen Telescope Array will be to scan several billion stars across a vast swath of our own Milky Way galaxy, said astronomer Seth Shostak, of the SETI Institute in Mountain View, Calif. That broad-brush survey will be followed in the coming years by detailed examinations of a million stars — a quantum leap in coverage of celestial real estate. In the 45 years since scientists first started looking for signals from alien worlds, only about 750 stars have gotten such close scrutiny. Radio telescopes could detect the “leakage” from ordinary broadcasts, or pick up a signal beacon deliberately aimed into space by extraterrestrials.

“This is an exponential increase in speed,” Shostak said. “And it covers much more of the radio dial, which is important because ET never told us where to look for his broadcasts.”

The array will also help push the frontiers of conventional astronomy, said Leo Blitz, director of radio astronomy for the University of California, Berkeley, which helped foot the bill. Radio telescopes are a staple of astronomy. All hot gases emit radio waves, so scientists analyze the emissions to glean information about objects that can’t be seen, like black holes and dark matter. Radio waves also allow astronomers to peer through dusty regions of space, and provide different views of stars and other galactic structures.

“We can see a larger piece of the sky at once than other radio telescopes — and we can make better images than anybody,” he said. The telescope’s power will enable more detailed study of pulsars, black holes, dark matter, gravity waves and phenomena not yet dreamed of, he said. “Throughout the history of astronomy, whenever you build an instrument with new capabilities, you make serendipitous discoveries.”

Allen was first drawn into SETI by the late celebrity astronomer Carl Sagan, who persuaded the Seattle billionaire to keep the program going after federal money dried up.

Allen’s interest in space goes back to his childhood and the Seattle library where he first came across “Rocket Ship Galileo,” Robert Heinlein’s sci-fi classic about whiz kids who build a moonship. As one of the world’s wealthiest men, he has bankrolled a science-fiction museum in Seattle and backed the winning entry in the $10 million X-prize competition for manned flights to the edge of space.

The goal is to boost the telescope’s power even more by expanding the array to 350 dishes, at a cost of an additional $41 million. Until that happens, the telescope won’t break much new ground in conventional astronomy, said University of Washington astronomer Woody Sullivan.

As leader of the University of Washington’s astrobiology program, Sullivan is a big believer in alien life forms, but says they’re more likely to be microbes on Jupiter’s moons or Mars than intelligent beings.

That’s another serious waste of money. The worst in all this, is that they are likely not going to tell the population when they find something. It has been reported already that they had signals coming from out of space and it never reached the public.

A NEW AND VERY ADVANCED PHYSICS: EXTENSION NEUROSENSING IN THE STUDY OF FUTURES SCENARIOS

A Preliminary Report

A. R. Bordon E. M Wienz
LIFE PHYSICS GROUP – CALIFORNIA

Whatever you may read into, or believe of, what we say here, we live all of us on Earth in interesting times. One of us in the second half of my life cycle, and will probably not survive the more interesting times forthcoming in the next four or five decades. The other is barely reaching the half mark of his lineage’s life expectancy.

The material presented here, in the form of a preliminary report, comes from the joining of the natural capacities of the human body and the being inhabiting it, and a technology array that is, and unfortunately remains, proprietary to this day. It is a product of very advanced physics and daring applications. In this essay we will benefit from its fruits.

EXTENSION NEUROSENSING

First, let’s go through a brief explanation of the technology itself. Extension neurosensing is both a method and a set of procedures that involve several elements in a working array.

The elements are (1) a human operator, (2) a computer driven array of energetic sources (low electromagnetic, sound, and light) that help increase the electrical capacitance of the human operator’s cells to a level or threshold, (3) processes that instigate the formation of a stable photonic (or auric) field around the body, (4) the reaching of another cellular energy threshold that stimulates the formation of single/coherent antifields (or harmonics of the field around the body), (5) the union or conjugation of the antifield with a computer generated 3dimensional avatar, and (6) the development of a visual pointofview through CNS (central nervous system) and brain hemispheric synchronization technology. To all of this, (7) the human operator adds his or her own will – or vectorintention.

This is the technologically assisted equivalent of clairvoyance on demand. When we focused on what the next 100 years will be like, what follows is a summary of our findings. This essay does not address the howto, the technology behind the method and the procedures used.

FUTURE SCENARIOS

Will the Earth survive these challenges? Its integrity as a planet will, but life on its surface will be severely challenged – from a meteor once and from an asteroid a second time. Yet these will not be extinction level events: life will go on. We will also discover in most surprising ways that we are not alone in the universe, and find out the true framework of how we came to be as a species on this planet. No science fiction writer to date has even come close to the scenarios rendered by extension neurosensing as being historystreams (or time lines) we as a species will collapse into reality as we move forward in time.

Science or Science-fiction? This is an interesting view, in my opinion. I like how the author explains that no writer managed to picture the real future, and I believe that they are quite far off too. Each time I visit the UFO forums and read what people are writing, I’m stunned at what type of “future earth” they expect to see. People also have a very xenophobic view of off-planet cultures. We have been so brainwashed and conditioned by the TV and the Books, we actually have no idea, what ET really are…and if all this fear from the unknown has foundation or is just the work of some secret organisation that don’t want us to establish a peaceful connection with them.
