Sky Valley Chronicle is asking if the mystery “thing” blocking “Bertha” (the giant boring machine that’s drilling the new Highway 999 tunnel under Seattle) is a buried UFO or evidence of an long lost civilization. Videos found about this mysterious blockage are asking if it is alien intervention, but no answers are forthcoming as of yet. . . . Read Complete Report

Life may have originated miles underground

The idea of a “primordial soup,” in which life theoretically began in lakes and oceans, may be way off.

New studies suggest the beginnings of life on this planet could have occurred deep underground, the Independent reports. . . . Read Complete Report

August 7, 2012:  Anyone who’s ever seen a noctilucent cloud or “NLC” would agree: They look alien.  The electric-blue ripples and pale tendrils of NLCs reaching across the night sky resemble something from another world.

Researchers say that’s not far off.  A key ingredient for the mysterious clouds comes from outer space. . . . Read Complete Report

April 17, 2009. A study in today’s edition of the Journal Science, investigates a strange flow of water coming from an Antarctic glacier. Beneath the ice, Scientists discovered a species of bacteria that has been isolated for 1.5 million years, hinting at possible ways life can exist elsewhere in the Universe.

New evidence that comets could have seeded life on Earth (W/Video)

From e!Science News

Published: Tuesday, March 5, 2013

It’s among the most ancient of questions: What are the origins of life on Earth? A new experiment simulating conditions in deep space reveals that the complex building blocks of life could have been created on icy interplanetary dust and then carried to Earth, jump-starting life.

Chemists from the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Hawaii, Manoa, showed that conditions in space are capable of creating complex dipeptides — linked pairs of amino acids — that are essential building blocks shared by all living things. The discovery opens the door to the possibility that these molecules were brought to Earth aboard a comet or possibly meteorites, catalyzing the formation of proteins (polypeptides), enzymes and even more complex molecules, such as sugars, that are necessary for life. . . .
