Humanity is Back on Our Moon

In a wonderful achievement India has landed in the southern pole of our beautiful moon! Well done India on taking humanity where we have never been before! Well done to the IRSO! Now all we need to do is grow up as a species and deep space will open before us with arms wide open!

The Feeling of Seeing Earth From Space

Some of you will have seen Richard Branson’s reaction to flying in Earth’s outer atmosphere and seeing Earth from space for the first time. His words “Oh my god, oh my god! This is unbelievable, this is too unbelievable! Wow, unbelievable!”, reflect the very emotional sentiments that I experienced onboard a Sar’Won’Dee craft in 2011 and which were reflected in my video of 2012 (29 mins-32 mins). If 3 minutes in near space can do this to a billionaire, imagine what something much longer can do to an ordinary human being! This is our destiny as a species but only when we all grow up!

PS. This video will be gone in a few days and my channel is now effectively non existent.

ET Monitoring of the Chinese Preparations for Colonizing Mars

Last week I was having a conversation with Dude (Katowwa) and he surprised me by telling me that he was walking around a special site in China where they are about to begin testing human endurance for traveling through space and for being isolated on Mars. The testing actually starts today and it marks a significant milestone in the China’s movement into space. The site is in a large cave system in the central region of NE China and the cave itself is approximately 400 m long by 200 m wide and 60 m high. The Chinese space agency – China National Space Administration (CNSA) has built a set of modules in 2 parts. One part is the equivalent of a space craft and the other part is the equivalent of a very small colony on Mars. They started sketching out the idea a decade ago and they began building the site 5 years ago and finished it in 2 years. They’ve been retro/future fitting it with lots of technology and modern conveniences and now they’re ready to put people inside. There will be two groups. One group will spend almost 2 years in the space craft module, whilst the other group will spend almost 2 years in the colony module. When the time is up, the colony group will come out first, it will be cleaned and then the people from the space craft group will spend another 2 years in the colony module. They’ve fitted windows in both modules to simulate the environment of space and the environment of Mars. They have certain activities and experiments that they want the simulation astronauts to undertake and they’re going to test how the astronauts cope with their isolation. The first colony will have 6 men in it. The second colony (also the spacecraft) will have 4 men and 4 women in it. When the second group moves from the space craft to the colony after simulating a landing on Mars, they will pass through a simulated Martian environment within the cave. The cave has been fitted with Mars like conditions that they hope will make it feel real.

So Dude is inspecting the site to see how it’s looking just prior to the installation of the astronauts. He’s been to the site a few times already and return several times throughout the life of the project. He’s doing this by himself without any invitation from the CNSA and even though they have cameras fitted to the cave, he will be undetectable as he will be out of phase with the space in the cave. (He does similar things often at classified sites around the globe). Dude said that he was curious to see how the the CNSA simulate things and to see how the project goes. He may or may not let himself be visible to a few people onboard the modules when he visits, it all depends on how they’re coping. He doesn’t want to freak them out too much! Apparently the Chinese hope to send people on a Mars mission in five years time (May 2026), which will be a year after they complete the project (May 2025). It will take 18 months to get to Mars and from what Dude can see they will succeed in getting to Mars but it won’t be as easy as they think to set up a colony. They’ll have many problems, so they’ll resort to setting up a space station in orbit around Mars, which will take 20 years to establish and then maybe another 5-6 years before they can get the first modules on the planet. Simultaneously the Chinese will create a significant sized space station around Earth (which of course they have already started). The ETs will be carefully controlling everything, which is why Dude is currently monitoring this project. In terms of the people onboard the modules, there are 2 good people he really likes who will be onboard the space craft module but he doesn’t particularly like the people who have been chosen for the first colony and he sees some problems developing with that group, relative to the group on board the space craft module, who he believes will have a more harmonious relationship.

When I spoke to Dude he was visiting the site for a couple of hours and he told me that he has left some mysterious objects in a few places – things that they won’t be able to account for, just to make it interesting and to see how they react (In Dude’s words : “You gotta spice things up Bright! You know how humans are, they need a little action, a little of the unexpected!”). I know that this is his way of studying people’s reactions and it also reflects his sense of humour!

Apparently the Chinese have learnt a great deal from American, European and Russian experiments with astronauts in isolated places and this project and others like it will teach them a lot about what works and what doesn’t work. The site will continue to be used for the next hundred or so years for similar projects. There will be a number of unexpected things that will occur, that they won’t be able to imagine, guess or learn from past experiences. Which is why it’s important that they do this, so that they can learn for their real world experiences.

The cave still has some small life forms in it. A few things have already been killed or displaced and some other life forms will be displaced but some small life forms will adapt to the new conditions. Dude seems to be equally interested in how these life forms will adapt the modifications that humans have made to the cave.

The Chinese will start running these sorts of simulated caves tests with AI and robots in 10-12 years and that’s also how they’ll co-colonize the moon and Mars. When human’s aren’t there, robots will be there. Dude is very impressed with how far the Chinese have come in such a short time. Dude said the Chinese have also put numerous objects on Mars but they haven’t spoken about it yet, so as to avoid the prying eyes of the Americans.

Anyway, I found this conversation with Dude quite interesting and it was amusing to hear his take on things and how easy it is for him to go wherever he wants and to keep tabs on anything that anyone is doing in secret.

Dude was quite happy for me to share this information and I had a sense that he was happy to spill the beans on this apparent secret. I don’t know if it is a secret but he acted like it was.

Please note that nothing I have shared of Dude’s comments in this post contradicts the ET control of us remaining a planet bound / near Earth orbit species. A small colony will take a long time to establish and be fraught with challenges and many deaths. It will still take 1,600 years for us to become a fully fledged space faring species.

Don’t be surprised to hear soon that the Americans and Russians have new plans to accelerate their human missions to Mars, especially in view of the Chinese aspirations.

We should be celebrating the achievements of the Chinese in space because it is a human achievement! Well done China!

Stay tuned to the official news for more on the Chinese mission to Mars and any secret testing that they begin speaking about.

PS. Update. I just discovered the news below as I was about to post. (These maybe animations but I don’t think anyone should underestimate the Chinese tenacity for doing what they want!)

Fuck You Elon Musk and Starlink!

I was recently privileged to seeing a very large formation of ET craft. Since then I have seen several more large geometrical formations and the normal craft that appear in different locations. A few days ago I decided to look up Australian UFO reports and was surprised to find about half a dozen reports that coincided to some degree with what I saw in terms of the general alignment of the craft. I saw the formation within 15 minutes of asking to see a formation and felt a very personal connection to what I was witnessing and to what my son later witnessed (which was on a different flight path).  Soon after I saw the craft Dude confirmed that there were 60 craft in total. Several days after the sighting, a spotlight seemingly coming from nowhere could be seen on the side of my house and inside the lounge room and the bedroom. One within a minute of seeing a formation and another within minutes of seeing a several separate individual craft.

Having found numerous other reports (reports which span a period of several weeks (and years when you dig far enough back), I thought I best see if there was any possibility that they could be satellites that other people were reporting (or that I had seen). It was then that I realized that Elon Musk’s SpaceX group has already started implementing the Starlink Mission. I knew it was coming but had not followed it closely. Starlink is a massive satellite project (releasing some 60 satellites at a time – coincidence hey!) with the aim of providing a global broadband service by 2021, with a plan to deploy it around Mars in the future (I suspect they want a network of satellites throughout the solar system!). So far Starlink have released 122 satellites and the last of Starlink’s satellites will be deployed in November 2027 and by then they will have deployed 11,936 satellites (with 42,000 in total when the project is complete) (each weighing about 100 to-500 kg). It’s like GPS satellites on steroids! A network of satellites and satellite trains enveloping the planet! Wikipedia says that there are about 5,000 satellites still in orbit from about 8,900 that have been deployed and of these about 1900 that are still functional. 42,000 will be a massive increase! An 8,400 % increase!

Many professional astronomers are outraged at what SpaceX have done and I fully sympathize with them. Starlink will wreck enjoying and observing the night sky and make outdoor ET contact much more difficult due to the distraction and confusion that it may cause. FUCK YOU ELON MUSK FOR WRECKING THE NIGHT SKY! AND FUCK THE US FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION FOR AUTHORIZING THE DEPLOYMENT! All for fucking internet! Give me the heavens any day!

God knows how much space junk will end up orbiting our planet but I can see it turning out like it did in Wall-E if Elon Musk has his way. How the hell does one US government agency have the right to authorize SpaceX (despite numerous legal objections) to fuck up the night sky for every living thing on Earth! I can’t help wondering who the FCC has links to (https://www.fcc.gov/about/overview) and how well connected they are to the war machine and other aspects of The Architecture and The Diamond Complex. It smells stinkable to me!

It is my sincerest wish that people start a global series of petitions against SpaceX/Starlink and that some sort of international tribunal (with better integrity than the UN) takes this to court and puts a stop to what is just the beginning of  fucking up the night sky. This whole internet from space thing is set to go stupid, with Amazon planning to send up 3,236 satellites some time soon with it’s Project Kuiper, with OneWeb planning to send up 2,622 satellites, with Samsung planning on sending up 4,600 satellites  Microsatellite production companies such as Sierra Nevada Corp and Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd may also become key players (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OneWeb_satellite_constellation). Corporate networks and money – the two go hand in hand!

I wonder if any of these companies have thought of future risks to other low earth orbit craft or plants, animals or people or the impact the satellite light will have on our night sky? Elon’s comment on Twitter to do something about the albedo (“Agreed, sent a note to Starlink team last week specifically regarding albedo reduction. We’ll get a better sense of value of this when satellites have raised orbits & arrays are tracking to sun.“) sound pretty lame arsed to me!

Just as a small side note, it’s kind of funny that Elon had said half halfheartedly that the 2016 DARPA AI challenge Cyber Grand Challenge would lead to the creation of Skynet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skynet_(Terminator)). Skynet was the artificial neural network super intelligence in the Terminator movies that tried to Nuke the planet and wanted to destroy humanity. And it’s also amusing that Elon was a signatory to a letter against autonomous lethal weapons and has been a staunch advocate against the dangers of AI. I mean a massive planet surrounding network of communication satellites with the best high tech, replaced every 5 years, starting with the ability to transmit broadband internet, doesn’t sound too far of Skynet to me! And if it’s not SpaceX, someone else will be thinking about the Skynet model. Whether it’s in the US, Russia, the UK, China, India, the EU or an international consortium. Skynet plus Supercomputers and Cloud Networks equals money and control! Even right intentions can be swayed. Everyone has a price! Everyone!

I didn’t have to tell you about any of this or put my own experience under the spotlight but I do so in the interest of honesty and to let you know about the changes. So having had my experience with the recent formation, I wanted to be absolutely certain of what I saw. So I went back to the Satflare website to check the details on that particular night. And although there were some similarities, there were significant differences in terms of time, angle, start and finish position, luminosity and duration. I’ve also watched the Starlink trains since what I saw and they seem quite different. So I feel confident that what I saw was not Starlink. I do however find it amusing that Dude said that 60 craft materialized and 60 satellites were deployed by SpaceX last mission (Nov 11).  What I saw fits in well with other formations I have seen, even if it is unique. Of course some people will think I was mistaken and other people will believe me. I suspect as spring arrives in the northern hemisphere many people will have difficulty distinguishing Starlink from real ET craft formations and fights may well erupt over what was ET and what was man made.

You can track the Starlink Trains (1/2) on the site, so as to be aware of their presence https://www.satflare.com/track.asp?q=starlink1 and you can learn more about Starlink here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlink_(satellite_constellation) and here https://www.starlink.com/. I for one will be monitoring the Starlink Train, so I don’t ever mistake it for anything else!

Steven Greer should take note of Starlink because it will have a profound impact on what he is trying to do with his new documentary and the success of global CE-5 groups and individual efforts to make ET contact!

ETs & Quantum Bullshit

I dedicate this post to Ethan, Sandor, Nick and Frederic. Four sharp minds in a bucket full of dull nails!

* * *

Here’s a little example of why I feel that so much that passes as a human understanding of reality is false.

Some time ago I was studying the famous Wave Function of Quantum Physics and I had this dream about presenting the negative component of wave functions to a bunch of mathematicians and physicists and telling them that the problem with the Quantum Mechanics approach is that it ignores the full implications of Einsteins speed of light (take E=mc^2 and move the equations around and c (the speed of light) is = +/-. I was trying to emphasize that the negative speed of light changes everything and alters everything about how we perceive reality. Anyway I revisited this dream again one day, trying to figure out exactly what it might have been getting at. During my research into Schrondinger’s equations and the Wave Function I found myself getting frustrated that they seemed to have based so much on so many simple assumptions – like being able to describe reality with man made mathematics (base 10 maths in particular), like assuming that the speed of light is constant, like focusing on 3 dimensions, like assuming that the human mind-body can view any electron (or group of electrons) as a wave function independent from itself, like the validity of the electron or sub atomic particle concept etc. The whole edifice of Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory seems to be built on slippery glue that is holding together balls of fluff! And lets face it, how can we ever figure out reality when we’re stuck on one planet and have a limited perspective?

Dude has often told me that human ideas about reality are rubbish and I have always believed that but that doesn’t mean that I haven’t tried to understand how we humans see things!

So this one day after a great deal of frustration, I went outside to take a pee in the darkness late at night (I live in the middle of nowhere so we do that to save water!) and I’m standing there holding my willy looking up at the Orion constellation and I think to myself – “All this stuff that our scientists and mathematicians believe about reality is crap isn’t it? Everything they believe about Quantum Mechanics is false! They’re heading down the wrong path! If what I am saying is true my friends, please signal me!” And the instant I finished thinking the last word, a craft blinked brightly from above Orion and then two more craft blinked strongly nearby – and they continued doing this, for a total of 14 flashes. So I had a little grin to myself, finished peeing, said “Thank you my friends!”, put my hand to my chest and bowed.

This sort of thing happens often when I find myself bashing my head against the brick wall of misinformed human thoughts and ideas. Sometimes I take the time out to talk to the ETs and they provide me with further detail and clarification. But at other times all I need is a confirmation of what I feel to be true.  I suppose I can concede that Quantum entanglement or entanglement of some sort is real.

As I see it there are two paths to figuring out reality – through our own discovery and with the help of ETs. There are almost 8 billion people on the planet and how many of them ask ETs for help to understand something? I do it often because I see great limitations with the human mind. And more importantly because I recognise that we are all connected and sometimes I need a little help from someone more experienced and more knowledgeable then myself.

There are plenty of examples of things we have wrong. Let me give you just one. Most ETs don’t have anti gravity craft or propulsion. They have living sentient craft that change the fabric of space using the life force. As long as we’re fixated with anti gravity and propulsion systems and wasting time and money on those things, we won’t be going anywhere far in the near or distant future. A better focus for the Aerospace industry would be on understanding the life force – the primordial energy of the universe, which gives rise to countless secondary energies and on figuring out how mind and energy realty to one another and how to build conscious biological technologies. And if humans can’t devote mental energy to these subjects, maybe we could enlist artificial intelligence to think things through for us! Despite these suggestions, one thing must happen first. We must develop spiritually! Without it, the ETs will keep us in check and all our dreams of being truly space faring will be nothing but dust in the wind. We have 1,600 years to go before (in certain Conjoined Spaces) we are out among the stars with ET. That’s a lot of human discovery, understanding and revision of what we thought was true, between now and then!

 

Networks and the Human Fantasy of Colonizing the Galaxy and Becoming Inter-Galactic

The following videos are for those interested in the human fantasy of going out into space and colonizing the galaxy. For those who wish to know how space travel is actually done (shortening distances) go here https://etandi.wordpress.com/2019/02/18/tsm176-reticulum-manifolds-and-how-ets-travel-through-space/. And for those interested in my take on the pros and cons of space travel go here : http://thesomethingmonologues.podbean.com/e/tsm47-pros-and-cons-for-space-travel/. For the Teal’hia’s view of reality/space read here : https://etandi.wordpress.com/2018/03/07/a-space-reticulum-the-tealhia-on-reality/. And another relevant post go here : https://etandi.wordpress.com/2018/08/10/elon-musk-and-the-dream-of-multiplanetary-man/.

Take note of the method of creating a network in video 5 and take note of the similarities between that and a Space Reticulum. Networks are the key to human space travel and our eventual movement into deep space (in 1,600 years), as they are in the coming into being and in the development of everything else in the material universe.

(PS. I really like Richard Branson and I think he has much more to offer us than Elon Musk).

 

Whohoo, Go Humanity ! Maybe ?

China has just achieved another first for the human  race, yesterday landing a craft in the Aitken Basin (near the south pole) on the far side of the moon ! China’s Chang’e 4 Lunar Mission (which includes a lander and a rover) has supposedly landed in an enormous crater that has some unique properties compared to other places that humans have explored. Because it’s landed on the far side of the moon, the Chinese had to previously set up a relay satellite help transmit signals back to Earth. In the footage released by the China National Space Administration, we see a simulated landing process and later the first images of the rover descending to the moon and stationary on the moon. I assume these simulated and static images maybe related to the difficulties of relaying the signal back to Earth but no doubt it will feed the conspiracy buffs who will see it as another fake moon landing. I am undecided as to whether this is real or not. If anyone can do this, it’s the Chinese ! The Chang’e 4 mission is a fantastic follow up to the Chang’e 1-3 missions. And if it’s authentic, it will provide humanity with an incredible window into our beloved moon ! Already it seems that we can see our moon in colour ! And lets be honest, we have to credit the Chinese for making red look very sexy on the moon ! Well done China !

 

It’s Time to Update the Golden Record

Many of you have heard of the famous Golden Record (http://goldenrecord.org/#viator) that Carl Sagan had created and sent out with Voyager 1 and 2 space craft in 1977. The story of the entire project and the list of material embedded on the record, are worth looking at and listening to. The Voyager Golden Record (VGR) was a snapshot of humanity in 1977 as determined by a group of middle aged American men. It was a pretty good summary of who we are and our planet but it was by no means inclusive of the human race, the other species or or the diversity of Earth. And of course the greatest limitation in making the record, was the limitation of the technology available in 1977. Now of course we have the capacity to make and store so much more information in a much smaller space. A few years ago Jon Lomberg, Carl Sagan’s principal collaborator (Design Director) on the VGR, suggested that we send a new record into space via the New Horizons spacecraft (https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/newhorizons/main/index.html / http://oneearthmessage.org/) which will leave our solar system and head towards the center of our galaxy, some time in the next decade. But unlike the VGR, this record will be a digital upload that will be transmitted to the spacecraft.

So here we are on the cusp of an incredible technological revolution and we now have the capacity to share all of our knowledge with space faring extraterrestrials. Putting aside the likelihood that most space faring ET races within several solar systems of us, already know everything they need to know about us and Earth, as a result of our thoughts, feelings and planetary electronic transmissions; the idea of telling ETs who we are is very appealing.

According to the One Earth Message website : “The act of creating the message has great educational, cultural and even spiritual value, whether the message is ever found by other beings or not”. And I would agree ! It seems to me that it is not the transmission of the message that really matters but the act of creating the message !

However, there is one critical problem involved in the whole process of creating just such a message. And that is, how do we choose what to include and how to we choose what to exclude ? Every single human effort to make a decision on the behalf of others is decisive. There are always winners and losers, the included and the excluded. And in fact the process of choosing for a major creation can be so divisive that it leads to conflict and suffering. Imagine for example what would happen if we tried to choose one person to live on the moon, or Mars or leave the solar system, or a group of people to live on the moon or mars or leave the solar system, or one person to meet ETs who landed in a public place, or one person to go through an inter or intra dimensional doorway to some other place or one person to plant the Coca Cola flag on the moon !  No single process that we know of can be all inclusive and all of them are divisive ! So the critical question is, can we create a process for the creation of an Earth Record that is all inclusive, non divisive and has the potential to lead to positive experiences for the largest possible number of people ? I’m not sure but I think it’s unlikely !

There are however at a point where we have some new possibilities that could change how we approach this whole subject. Space exploration is no longer the domain of government groups like NASA. In the near future space exploration will likely be driven by corporations and private citizens. The age of citizen space exploration will soon be here and with it the opportunity for large numbers of people to contribute to space research and space related projects. The day may even come when ordinary people can launch Personal Information Capsules (PICs) via some corporate group that launch fleets of space drones or that transmits signals into the furthest reaches of space ! (PICs might also be used to store our life stories for the future, to be accessed by people in the future to or to be re-animated by AIs/Robots).

Personally I would like to imagine that every human being has the opportunity to send any information they want into space via an electronic signal or some very very tiny piece of technology that is on board a very small probe. We are the point where we can put so much into such a small space, so why shouldn’t we try to share as much as we can ? No doubt the fear mongers will jump up and down about the dangers of sharing too much with potentially hostile ETs but we have been doing that since we first began thinking and then later when we began transmitting radio signals. The only threat we face is the threat in our heads !

I don’t believe that humans can do any activity that unifies us but I would like to believe that sharing an Earth Record that includes all our human stories, may do a great deal to bring us together. We are already doing it every moment of our lives but we just don’t know it. The physical and public act of sharing, may well be the greatest catharsis we could ever experience and a way for many people feel genuinely connected to the Cosmos.

I wonder, what do you think/feel we should share as a species and what would you like to share about your own life ? There is an audience somewhere, who is already interested in you !

Elon Musk and The Dream of Multiplanetary Man

Don’t get me wrong, I actually really like Elon Musk. I think he’s a really nice guy and I like the way he thinks. But he is naive and has no appreciation of the limitations that mankind has imposed on itself and the way that we are limited by the ETs in what we are allowed and will be allowed to do. As I have said before, Dude has suggested to me that it will be 1600 years until we leave our solar system. And 50 years until we have a stable space station in orbit around mars and the most basic of Mars settlements. We have to get our shit together and show that we appreciate this planet before we are allowed to fully colonize another planet or become space faring. 

I have two simple questions for people who believe that we should colonize another planet ? Do we have the right to colonize another planet and how do we know that it doesn’t belong to another life form ? We do not have a legitimate answer to such things. But we make countless assumptions that we know the answers and that we have the right to do whatever we want. We are destined to become a space faring race but not while we are experiencing the 6th mass extinction of life forms on this planet. How we currently respect life on Earth isn’t well received by other races.

I remember reading in 1982 about the Mars colonies that we would have by 1997. Man’s capacity for fantasy has always far exceeded his actual practical abilities. We know so little about space and colonizing planets, let alone the universal principles of how a planet bound race becomes space faring. So let us dream on, caught up in our fantasies about what we can and cannot do. And I guarantee you, that it won’t be long before we can start counting the setbacks, the accidents, the inexplicable failures, the psychological breakdowns and the strange stories that will come back with our space travelers. Such things have already happened and will plague human space travel for many centuries to come.

Re-entry of Human Space Craft and Celestial Space Debris

Since I was a little boy, I have seen so many things fall from the sky – both during the day and at night. Most of it of course is meteorite related but some of it has probably been human and at least one that I know of was ET related. I’ve always been curious about what we know about objects that fall to Earth, how humans decide where to crash space craft (including satellites) and the impact that the sometimes toxic and radioactive materials in crashed space craft have on life in the regions where they crash.

Personally I think it’s disgusting that we have so much crap orbiting the planet and I dread the thought that we will have so many objects in orbit in the coming decades and centuries, that it might become very difficult to enjoy seeing natural celestial objects and ET craft in the night sky because of all the human pollution. We treat space like we treat our lands and our oceans – with total disregard for anything else ! With every piece of crap we put in space, we are telling the ET races exactly who we are. A race that doesn’t care about anything but itself !

If you ever wanted to know about the celestial objects that fall to Earth, how ESA/NASA monitors and recovers the craft that fall to Earth and something about the rubbish we’ve put in space, check out the videos below.
