"Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. . . . We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time. . . . I happen to be privileged enough to be in on the fact that we have been visited on this planet, and the UFO phenomenon is real." - Doctor Edgar Mitchell, 6th man to walk on the moon (source)(source)(source)As recent as a decade ago, avid UFO and extraterrestrial researchers were unable to speak openly about their research without being ridiculed. Today, the topic has gained considerable credibility and popularity, so much so that not only are high ranking figures from military, political, and academic spheres speaking out, but also popular global figures as well, and particularly at prestigious conferences around the world. Previously classified documents that have been released from dozens of governments around the world have also allowed this topic to enter the respected public domain.
The 2011 Global Competitiveness Forum, at which a number of prominent scientists attended, featured a lecture by Jacques Vallee, notable for co-developing the first computerized mapping of Mars for NASA, and for his work at SRI International on the network information centre for ARPANET, on the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon.
Here's another talk by nuclear physicist Stanton Friedman at the same conference. The main theme of that conference was contact with intelligent extraterrestrials, and learning from outer space.
As far as documents, whistleblowers, and other 'proofs' that have emerged, we've covered many in great detail in a number of articles that we've published. You can access those articles by visiting the exopolitics section of our website here.
The latest major figure to comment on extraterrestrials was Elon Musk, founder, CEO, and CTO of SpaceX and co-founder, CEO, and product architect of Tesla, Inc. Aside from a phenomenal businessman, Tesla is an activist who uses his wealth and resources to create a better Earth.
Comment: A phenomenal businessman? Well, that is probably a long bow to draw. Musk has proven very adept at getting the government (i.e. the taxpayer) to subsidise all his business activities, rather than building successful profitable businesses.
He touched on extraterrestrials at the World Government Summit, a global platform dedicated to shaping the future of government worldwide. Each year, the Summit sets the agenda for the next generation of governments with a focus on how they can harness innovation and technology to solve universal challenges facing humanity.
Here's an excerpt from that speech, which you can view here:
When I was a kid I was wondering, kind of, what's the meaning of life, like, why are we here, what's it all about? I came to the conclusion that what really matters is trying to understand the right questions to ask, and, the more that we can increase the scope and scale of human consciousness, the better we are able to ask these questions. . . .Below is a snippet taken from the full interview. In it, he states that if there are super intelligent extraterrestrials somewhere out there, which is the generally agreed upon scientific hypothesis, "they're probably already observing us, that would seem quite likely, and we're just not smart enough to realize it."
Some of those things are in the long term, having long term sustainable transport and sustainable energy generation, and to be a space-bearing civilization, and for humanity to be out there among the stars, and be a multi-planetary species. I think being a multi-planet species and being out there among the stars is important for the long term survival of humanity. . . . It creates a sense of adventure, and it makes people excited about the future.
"Not Smart Enough To Realize It"
"Intelligent beings from other star systems have been and are visiting our planet Earth. They are variously referred to as Visitors, Others, Star People, ETs, etc. . . .They are visiting Earth NOW; this is not a matter of conjecture or wistful thinking."I think Musk is right — they are probably already watching us, we just don't realize it yet. But things are changing. Numerous efforts are being made to educate the public on this subject, from the most credible sources available. Scientific publications, video footage, and photos have already been published in peer-reviewed scientific journals for a number of years. (source)
- Theodor C. Loder III, Phd, Professor Emeritus of Earth Sciences, University of New Hampshire (source)
Below is a powerful statement made by former NASA astronaut and Princeton physics professor Dr. Brian O'Leary, who says that there is "abundant evidence that we are being contacted, and that intelligent civilizations have been visiting for a very long time."
Again, if you want to sift through some of this evidence, we've presented it in hundreds of articles you can view in chronological order in the exopolitics section of our website here.
Why the Masses Haven't Realized It — Or Have They?
"Behind the scenes, high ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense."Movies and television shows bombard us constantly with stories of extraterrestrial invasions, and despite all of the evidence available, the fact that we are being and have been visited by extraterrestrials can be a scary thought, particularly given the way extraterrestrials are typically portrayed.
- Former head of CIA Roscoe Hillenkoetter, 1960 (source)
With a massive disinformation campaign that has focused on covering up these facts for decades, along with the mass ridicule of this subject for anyone who took it seriously in the past, it quickly escaped the minds of the masses and many people considered the notion of ongoing intelligent contact with our planet from extraterrestrials completely preposterous.
A great quote from Carl Sagan comes to mind:
One the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're not longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It's simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.Current public perception of UFOs and extraterrestrials reveals how easily our minds can be influenced, and how quickly our thoughts about a subject can be given to us, even subconsciously. It begs the question, how many other beliefs do we share that have been, in a sense, 'programmed' into us by powerful groups of people with an agenda?
"There are objects in our atmosphere which are technically miles in advance of anything we can deploy, that we have no means of stopping them coming here ... [and] that there is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, from other civilizations. That it behooves us, in case some of these people in the future or now should turn hostile, to find out who they are, where they come from, and what they want. This should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not the subject of 'rubishing' by tabloid newspapers."All this being said, the fact that UFOs/extraterrestrials is one of the most searched subjects on the web suggests that people are at least curious to learn the truth.

What Extraterrestrial Contact Is Really About
Humanity is waking up to the fact that this type of thing has been happening for quite some time, and the realization comes at a time when humanity is experiencing a massive shift in consciousness. By 'shift in consciousness,' I mean that we are letting go of long-held beliefs that have been rendered obsolete by new evidence. That being said, no matter how much evidence presents itself, it's always going to be difficult to let go of belief systems, but minds are indeed opening. It was great to see Musk mention the topic of consciousness in his talk as well as mention that it's important to increase the scope and scale of human consciousness, and part of increasing that scope, as Musk identifies, is asking the right questions. Some of these questions deal with pulling back the veil that's blinded the masses for decades. It's not that we aren't smart enough, but rather that we have been lied to and misled for years.
"An extraterrestrial influence is investigating our planet. Something is monitoring the planet and they are monitoring it very cautiously."Acknowledging the fact that we are being visited opens up so many questions in all fields, from religion, to history, to new theories of scientific knowledge and many more, as I am sure you can imagine. If they have been around, and have been watching us, why has there not been major contact? There is sufficient evidence showing that contact has indeed occurred on an individual level, with perhaps millions of people, but a 'one time' mass disclosure event has yet to take place.
- Former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska), 2008 presidential candidate
Perhaps Musk is not sharing knowledge that he's been privy to? Given the circles that he finds himself in, it would not be surprising. Furthermore, when in the business of new energy generation, the topic of UFOs is most likely to come up, because one of the main questions is, how are they getting here? What propulsion systems do they use? UFOs that are tracked on military radar and visually confirmed by pilots have performed maneuvers that completely defy our known laws of physics, and make maneuvers no known aircraft on Earth can.
"There is another way, whether it's wormholes or warping space, there's got to be a way to generate energy so that you can pull it out of the vacuum, and the fact that they're here shows us that they found a way."(source)The statement above comes from Dr. Jack Kasher, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Nebraska. He is one out of multiple physicists (and scientists in general) to examine the truly remarkable NASA STS-48 footage. You can see that footage and read more about it here.
I've been studying the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon for a very long time, and one common theme that constantly comes up is a shift in consciousness, a change in the way we see and care for our planet, and a deeper understanding about life and the true nature of reality.
Is it a coincidence that the ET/UFO topic continues to gain attention as we turn our focus toward global cooperation? A desire for peace? A desire for a clean, green planet clear of corporate, government, and financial interest?
Can we work together, can we solve these problems in order to become the spacefaring race that Musk so passionately speaks of? It seems other civilizations have done so, civilizations that have probably already tackled and overcome these same problems we now face.
"The Earth is about four and a half billion years go, that's 45 hundred million years old. What if theres another planet that's almost exactly like us, almost exactly 45 hundred and 1 million years old. They're a million years ahead of us, and on a galactic scale they're almost our twin brothers. We'll have solved all these problems."A 'Spiritual' Revolution
- Jack Kasher (source)
Some people believe that 'spirituality' is another religion. And it can be (See: "Why I Believe the Spiritual Movement Can Be Counter Productive").
That being said, spirituality doesn't really have the same negative connotations that religion has, lacking its long history of violence, subjugation, and corruption. Spirituality isn't concerned with converting people to specific beliefs and behaviours. It has roots in the most ancient of history, and also correlations with a lot of science that's emerging today, mainly in the areas of quantum physics and neuroscience, which are now revealing the vast interconnectedness of all things. I think it would be wise to assume that this interconnectedness is not only planetary, but interplanetary and beyond.
A big part of the extraterrestrial question coincides with this type of 'spirituality.' While there will always be people who are quick to label aliens as angels or demons, perhaps the best approach is, as the Dalai Lama emphasized a few years ago, to view 'them' as 'us,' and refuse the urge to label and judge them.
Comment: If we go the Dalai Lama route than lets just say that among the world of aliens there quite probably exists what we would call psychopathic - as well as altruistic races (for lack of a better term).
The spiritual aspect of this topic is also emphasized in indigenous lore from all over the world.
"My people tell of Star People who came to us many generations ago. The Star people brought spiritual teachings and stories and maps of the cosmos and they offered these freely. They were kind, loving and set a great example. When they left us, my people say there was a loneliness like no other."If they are here, and have been for a while, I guess we can rule out any type of 'alien' invasion, but a staged alien invasion could be another story...
- Richard Wagamese, one of Canada's foremost authors and storytellers from the Wabaseemoong First Nation in Northwestern Ontario (source)
Comment: As has been stated on SOTT.net previously: That some very 'powerful' people would plan a staged alien invasion does not preclude the possibility of a real one occurring - or currently in the process of occurring at some level. In other words, the two scenarios are not mutually exclusive.
See: Fermi's phony paradox: Humans too arrogant and stupid to solve 'missing aliens' question
At the end of the day, all of the research I and many have others have done suggests that something special is happening, and there are many out there watching us, and perhaps assisting us in ways we do not know, to see if we can succeed in making the human experience beneficial for all life on the planet. Part of that is waking up to all of the lies and deceit that plagues this planet, presenting solutions to our problems, and then implementing those solutions. Many barriers may stand in the way of this progress, but we can't break them down until they are at least identified. This is one aspect of the massive shift in consciousness that's occurring right now, and how it may tie to the supposed "super intelligent aliens" that may not only be visiting us right now, but walking among us.
Perhaps extraterrestrial contact can help us find out who we are and where we come from. There is a bigger picture here, and it requires us to let go of all of our judgements and destructive ways of life, and embrace the interconnectedness of all that is.
Full ET disclosure knocks opens pandora's box, and makes it's way into all aspects of our lives, if allowed to open...One thing is for certain, "the truth is going to come out sooner our later." - Colonel Ross Dedrickson taken from this interview.

[Link] Interesting film. Worth watching.
The truth will never be revealed by any official source. Absolutely Never!
Ok that sentence is just nonsense, I take it he meant the planet that is older would have supposedly solved the problems that we face, if that is what he tried to convey then I think that is the kind of incredibly linear thinking that blocks us from solving our problems.
As a society we build on the backs of those who came before, to an extent. However it is a very fragile 'structure' of knowledge because each new generation is not the sum total of the previous generations, each person has to learn everything from scratch, and for the most part we only learn what we need to learn to survive let alone thrive in this society. This so called civilization would near instantly revert to 'stone age' status the moment the electrical grid that supports it goes down.
The inability to easily and effectively transmit knowledge to the next generation is the primary reason humanity does not progress to a civilization that can properly care for the planet and explore space. We are trapped in these nasty power structures that guarantee we repeat history over and over and over. The only way out is to radically change our education systems to prioritize cultivation of critical/objective thinking, application of imagination/intuition, and focus on functional/useful knowledge. But seeing as public schooling and its common core are the primary tool for the state to train the slave populations (to be good little slaves), I don't have much hope for significant change in the future. The internet is like the last hope for humanity, but we see how even that is getting clamped down on.
Again this is the notion that the state, the government has a monopoly on knowledge, and that only it can officially disclose knowledge of aliens.
Anywone with a eyes to see, with ears to hear, and with a brain to ponder however has the ability to discover through research the truth about this topic themselves.
The fact of the matter is that the available evidence is an ocean, available to even bums who visit public libraries and search the internet.
Based on the way life exists on every nook and cranny on earth, it is not a leap of faith to surmise that life is just as abundant across the billions of planets all throughout space.
Technological prowess is the only true demonstration of intelligence. It is the only accurate and therefore justifiable measure of the ultimate worth and meaning and the final goal of life.
Once you (the creature, the thing) have enough technological prowess, you can hide from whomever you want, watch/spy on whomever you want, go wherever you want, own and control whatever you want--do anything and everything as much as you want--and no one else will ever know because they are just not smart enough.
You have outwitted and outsmarted everybody.
No one is as cool as you.
And isn't that just so cool?
Yep.
Duh.
ned, out
Never fear, the aliens are here, IMO.
Within the be-life such conflict can be won an that such victory meaningful is no remembrance of unified purpose.
The labelling of an evil as psychopathic is just another version of excommunication.
All relations and communications embody correspondences of thought at some level that may not be conscious and that the surface consciousness blocks by design - so as to operate in the dark of unwatched and unowned mind.
The world you meet - the qualities you meet or draw forth in others - and they in you are not fixed, external physical entities - but so has the mind trained itself to perceive and believe.
Victim-hood is part of the toolset for tricking the mind to believe itself split. It projects the cause externally (away) and WANTS it there with al the force of its intent to split, and the reflection of such force as the trauma of conflict - regardless of shifting roles. It becomes a self-perpetuating negative loop.
Beliefs that are professed that are not wholly without need to get validation - are seeking reinforcement. Which is the belief in lack, frailty and weakness - for wholeness is not self-conflicted doubt, seeking ascendency.
Realities ARE beliefs unrecognized. But at a level the surface mind was made to hide - because it is the unfolding of the be-life in act. Negative - and I mean divisive, segregative and conflicting self-definition - may cast itself in an apparently positive spin. Hence the wish of a positive is a hidden or unfaced and un-owned negative. To will - that is to truly desire - a positive - or integrative, expanding and embracing perspective - will embrace the negative experience as part of uncovering its own correspondence or 'entanglement'. Releasing self, releasing other - these are the same but not in a world believing they are different. You cant think this in the 'different' - you can only receive the recognition in a 'sameness'. Attempts to fit or force the Living into the framework of conflicted thinking persists the sacrifice of Life to dead concept, image and symbol - for you are none of these - and never could be.
Re-integrating a conflicted consciousness is through willingness - yet from the point of view of an attempt to conquer or possess and control Life, it will seem violation, insult and ultimate defeat - AS IF at the hand of another. You can align in true will now, or defer to delay - but a false will cannot but make dissonant. This has been made the call to guilt. But it is simply a Call to wake - and to joy - for such is a unified wholeness of being.
The Plane you resonate and focus in - in any given moment of acceptance - is your 'chosen' reality experience. This 'choice' is not truly choice so much as freedom of being you. But the choice to be something else has made freedom of slavery that fears true freedom as if slavery. So what you want, what you desire and prefer, is operating either from a heartfelt honesty - or a routine of sub-conscious responses.
Insofar as 'evils' mark the way you say you DON'T want - use them as waymarkers - only remember Jesus said 'resist ye not evil' - and know that what you resist, persists. If an evil persists in your reality-experience, then it is serving some meaning or function for you.
Your worthiness for love's awareness and embrace requires no one else to be damned or demonized. What then of blind, hate, malice, envy, vengeance then? Attend the cause and reveal the causeless.
In the nature of mind or consciousness truly, giving and receiving are one; As you give so shall you receive - for nothing can prevail against your will. In giving false witness - you receive it, and in treating life as slave or lab-rat, so are you subjected regardless the mind-spin of being the power. True relationship has to yield to truly receive. Are you ready for an intimacy of being the mind cannot interject, much less control? If so - then you are such an awareness unfolding - and if not yet - then you insist on seeing and interpreting Life in terms OF an interjecting control, conflict, fear, struggle and destruction. THAT is where we came IN. But now are you in some willingness of new eyes to see - are you not?
If you could go back in time to where it 'all went haywire' and make a different choice - well here you are - and the choice is already made FOR your acceptance. Self hate or rejection makes no Sense. But making is not true Creation so much as an anti-Creation in wish.
In terms of SOTT quote of the day - yes it is your 'little ring' the darkness WANTS - that you yet cling to as power in secret.
I have thought about that philosophy often.
Firstly, if you don't acknowledge evil and don't allow evil into your thoughts, then as far as you are concerned there is no evil.
The paradox is that the mantra itself acknowledges evil, three times. Consequently, three times the concept of evil is imprinted on your consciousness.
The intent and attempt to 'believe' (or 'be live') a world or life conforming to a wish believed, is the wish that is the father of the lie - for once a wish is accepted in place of true willing, the lie and the father of the lie operate the denial of all that is true - in place of and as if truth. Such is the 'usurping mind'. Is it an 'evil' or an error that can be corrected?
To be free of the imprint of such wish-protection, and of its demand that guilt be projected away from self - and hated as the evil in the other, is the willingness to notice, own and release it in oneself. None of which is the capacity of any mind or self defined against or in terms of evil - for all of true freedom is the grace of accepting and aligning in true will, instead of denying will to the wish to run a substitute.
"Sufficient unto the day be the evils thereof" - is not an evasion or a hiding of a dissonance of self and experience that calls to be attended and addressed in place - where it is felt and known - instead of invoking the mind of guilt - and indeed the assertion of sin - as protection from exposure to misalignment in being. "Let another pay, that I may live", sacrifices life to the worship and power of a secret self-elitism.
The belief in and act of evil is hatred born of fear. Imprinting or incepting AS what you take to be 'your' consciousness. But this is not who you are created to be , nor a true inheritance - but the inheritance of a sense of difference in opposition and disconnection from the true of being - and therefore in commitment to a false will - that runs as an overlay upon the sacrifice of joy in 'being right' over against a wrong - and ever seeking and finding the 'wrong' whereby to claim your 'right' and justify hate in vengeance claiming justice.
What you find IS what you are seeking - and when something finds you that seems an evil, it IS yet something sought for and valued at some level of a split consciousness - running as subconscious routine, or working un-owned as 'unconscious' and denied - and thus perverted or corrupted desire. Desire for wholeness draws the shadow self up to be healed. Fear in conflict keeps desire for wholeness - and feared evils, at bay in perpetual war. This is being made plain now.
The device of the scapegoat, or evil assigned to the special 'other' made unlike us and driven from our midst is the basis by which a society of sin operates death upon life un-challenged - for all conspire to 'join' in blame that keeps their self hidden from receiving guilt in a surface awareness. Yet no true joining is allowed in a world predicated on belief in sin as power over a denied, impotent or dead God. No intimacy of recognition but must be interjected upon and stamped out. "Trust no one except for what you can used them for", for a hatred of Self operates a substitution for love that is a conditional demand FOR the gratification of a separateness as if a love.
Unmasking evil, is beset with evils - for only in the dark of a desire to hide, can it operate as power over the whole will of true being. Hiding from terror, and masking rage both operate the personae of a split minded attempt to keep the evil hidden because it seems to give some fragment of a life amidst a feared and estranged Totality - that is associated with annihilation or unending pain. So make of death a saviour from incoming light, and adapt to a world of pain - to rule out and stamp out the innocence of being for the overlording of an ever shifting elitist division. Yet there is no fear IN love, and what seems opposite must be the call FOR what it mistakenly denies, but in a form that can never be fulfilled.
Be not led by the temptation to perceive yourself unfairly treated - or you re-enact the giving up of sovereign will, and innate power in love, to an illusion in which you fight your brother for a power believed stolen or deprived you - when it is your refusal to accept him or her in recognition of Life, that damns him or her or your world AND you. It is the mind that sets conditions upon Life and then adapts to the reflection as if the cause. Yet because it is thought, it can be changed.
As we each and together give so must we receive. 'Splitting the mind' does not escape the Law or Nature of Mind. The attempt and intent to give and receive a false witness is a 'mind' unlike Creator at one-with Creation. Such a 'mind' can be freed of its false maker to serve an awakening, reintegrating and healing unto true of being. This is not the manipulation of others and world but acceptance of true foundation before the world and before the 'mind' was made a false. A freely aligned mind DOES meet a different world-experience. Tyrannous will is neither whole or holy.
If you are to meet - contact - open communication and relationship with, an other living one - then you will meet in the terms of the self you accept yourself to be - regardless the behaviour of the other. Hidden conflict will subvert and reflect in the other and you will meet yourself in reflected assertion of such conflict or in silent recognition and a willingness to give and receive as one.
It is not for me to change another by stamping another 'will' upon them, but it is given me (innate to being) to reflect the choice another makes, in recognition of the power OF choice as a quality of the freedom to accept and extend the embrace of Life - regardless whether another seems to recognize or respond in kind. For the timing is not by force but in willingness.
But force in right timing embodies the appropriate check to lawlessness. Saying - and meaning 'No!" to a dis-integrity in relation to the act of another, is the willingness to align in and of it in myself and opportunity for others to recognize themselves in integrity from your witness to it. But beware the ruse to seem to GET integrity from the evil seen in the other - for such is the subversion of the FORM and appearance to a Trojan intent.
ANY form can be adopted (or masked in) to pass off a hidden or private agenda as if true currency. The 'matrix' world of a fake currency of deceits is the acceptance of form over felt communication of purpose. A child can feel a lie but cannot articulate why. The adulterated mind adapts to a world of lies in all the learnings of a mind-mask of self-justification. Love-less or self-conflicting intent is not true currency just because it appears or appeals in sympathy with accepted forms of love or appeals for love. So if it is to be corrected, loveless thought must be revealed to a true currency of thought by a mind that does NOT react or run upon the false, but abides true willing to recognize where and how to be and see and act. WE uncover the creation or response of a living will and not a templated formula to a dead concept infused with fear.
The recognition of dissonance can then NOT be used as a basis for sin, guilt and punishment, but serve the call to pause and release investment in the 'mind of evil's imprint' as our willingness for Life anew - of a true source and nature. This is not different from accepting unconditional love - for one must recognize and release the conditions we put upon love in order to let in who we truly are - and know the movement through us that is reflected in recognition of one of like Kind, even when NOT matching our own conditioned needs, or aligned with our own beliefs.
Spiritual impulse or synchronicity is subverted by an assertive sense of the power that presumes the capacity to 'do' it, take credit for it, teach it, act as if they have it, and assert and defend such face against the exposure of a mistaken sense of self. This can become the belief that because error becomes associated with the forms of love - there is no love but lies, and each makes their own self by 'loving' instead to see error and take joy in it in the belief another's loss is their gain.
In practical terms we will meet 'blind and unfeeling' denial in others - in the world of conflicted purpose - over and again and in many forms. Some seem fair and other outrageously foul, but both embody the same core orientation to life-denial - operating the abusing mind of the abused. In my own life choices, I feel an unwillingness to persist this pattern - and yet I see it is not enough to change the form and presume to have escaped or to have corrected or resolved the error.
A deeper discernment reads the signs of emergent being. Not an emergency that calls upon fear to abort - but that such fears are transmuted -lived through - to a truly relational and cooperative intent - more like the midwiving to a birth. For that which was denied, rises for true acceptance and release from denial though one cannot know that unless released. In any given situation, some of us are triggered in unseeing reaction to our own past, and in need of being held in worth we do not feel or recognize within the denial pattern. The capacity TO recognize needs nurture and support - not vilification and blame. This is not sympathy for the person in presentation, but compassion for Self in all. You are more than the personal sense, and infinitely more than any personal trip I might lay upon you to make myself feel less dissonant.
This reinforces my belief that there might be a controlled disclosure effort in what I call a "Recruit a Group of Crackpot" hypotheses which I just updated here:
