Pre-Announcement Media Coverage

[John Smith]

We are seeing so many remarkable pre-announcement pieces showing up, this is a place to post and discuss them. This one for example, is making discoveries sound 'ho hum' which a few months/years ago were heralded as amazing breakthroughs. Today for example: 

"Nearly Every Star Hosts at Least One Alien Planet"

http://news.yahoo.com/nearly-every-star-hosts-least-one-alien-plane...

When a month or so ago they were making a BIG deal about finding one planet in the sweet zone which could possibly support life, son they they say 25% of them could support life! Including mention of red dwarfs, etc. The Zeta predicted evidence continues to build up!

Here is another blog that relates, describing a wobble:

Not all pre-announcement signs are for an increased disclosure, some are the opposite:

Young people who question the Government or media may be extremists, officials tell parents

A leaflet distributed as part of an anti-extremism drive says these signs are 'specific' to radicalisation

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/young-people-who-ques...

Child protection officials been criticised after warning parents that young people who take issue with government policy or question what they are told in the media may have been radicalised by extremists.

A leaflet drawn up by an inner-city child safeguarding board warns that “appearing angry about government policies, especially foreign policies” is a sign “specific to radicalisation”.

Parents and carers have also been advised by the safeguarding children board in the London Borough of Camden that “showing a mistrust of mainstream media reports and a belief in conspiracy theories” could be a sign that children are being groomed by extremists.

Bella Sankey, policy director at the campaign group Liberty, criticised the leaflet.

“Children should be encouraged to take an interest in politics and think critically about what they see in the media, not deemed suspect for so doing,” she said.

3,500-Year-Old Sunken Town Discovered In Croatia

Archeologists in Croatia announced their discovery of a 3,500-year-old sunken town in Adriatic Sea near Zadar, a southern coastal city. The ancient settlement and port was found in the sea between the islands of Ricula and Galesnjak in the Pasman Channel in 2014.

President Obama brought up "Roswell and the aliens and UFOs" in 

President Obama and Bill Simmons: The GQ Interview (11/17/15)

http://www.gq.com/story/president-obama-bill-simmons-interview-gq-m...

Have you ever said, “Give me the JFK-assassination files, I want to read them. Give me all the secret stuff”?

I gotta tell you, it’s a little disappointing. People always ask me about Roswell and the aliens and UFOs, and it turns out the stuff going on that’s top secret isn’t nearly as exciting as you expect. In this day and age, it’s not as top secret as you’d think.

Tsunami devastated Europe 8,150 years ago: Huge waves swept hundreds of miles down the North Sea after the last Ice Age

• A huge landslide under the Norwegian Sea triggered the powerful tsunami
• Waves of up to 65 feet high hit Iceland, Greenland, Norway and Britain
• The tsunami was so powerful it swept all the way down the North Sea

It was a time when stone-age hunter gatherers were spreading across northern Europe and into Britain as the glaciers of the last ice age retreated.

But just as these mesolithic tribes were settling in these newly uncovered areas a giant tsunami triggered by an underwater landslide off the coast of Norway devastated large parts of Europe.

Waves of up to 65 feet (20 metres) are thought to have smashed into Iceland, Greenland, Norway Scotland and parts of England's northern coastline.

A huge landslide of Ice Age sediment under the Norwegian Sea 8,150 years ago (illustrated) produced a tsunami so powerful it swept hundreds of miles down the North Sea and created waves of up to 65 feet high

Scientists have now uncovered evidence that shows just how powerful these huge waves were and the huge area that they effected.

Sediment discovered on the south west coast of Denmark shows the waves spread out across the Norwegian Sea and penetrated deep into the North Sea.

COLLAPSE OF VOLCANO TRIGGERED MEGA TSUNAMI 73,000 YEARS AGO

A tsunami of biblical proportions triggered by the sudden collapse of a volcano generated a wave nearly 1,000ft high, scientists have discovered.

The event occurred 73,000 years ago in the Cape Verde Islands off west Africa, long before there were any coastal cities that might have been flattened by the deluge.

But some experts fear a similar giant collapse could present a real threat today, especially around volcanic islands.

The ancient collapse occurred at Fogo, one of the world's largest and most active island volcanoes that today towers more than 9,000ft (2,743m) above sea level. 

An estimated 40 cubic miles (167 cubic kilometres) of rock fell into the ocean at once, resulting in an 800ft (244m) high tsunami that engulfed an island more than 30 miles away (48km).

By comparison, the largest known recent tsunamis, which devastated Indian ocean coasts in 2004 and eastern Japan in 2011, attained maximum heights of around 100ft (30m). 

Waves of at least six feet tall (2m) would have been powerful enough to sweep people off their feet if they had been unfortunate enough to be standing on the Danish coast at the time.

Writing in the journal Geology, Dr Mikkel Freurgaard, a geologist at the University of Copenhagen and his colleagues who conducted the study, said: 'Our results demonstrate that the Storegga tsunami propagated 900–1000 km (559-621 miles) across the shallow continental shelf of the North Sea.

'This implies that the Storegga slide tsunami probably impacted the entire coast of the southeastern North Sea.'

The tsunami is thought to have been triggered when a 120 mile long stretch of sediments that had accumulated off the coast of Norway during the Ice Age broke free of the continental shelf and plunged into the depths 8,150 years ago.

The area of seabed is thought to have been roughly the samne size as Iceland and was up to 111 feet thick.

This huge underwater landslide, known as the Storegga slide, sent waves out in all directions, causing huge tsunamis to sweep over the coastline of Norway and Iceland.

The waves also raced south engulfing the Faroe Island, Orkney and large parts of the coastline of mainland Britain.

Previous studies, however, have found that friction from the shallow seabed in the North Sea would have dissipated the tsunami's energy and so doubted it would have reached far down the west coast of mainland Europe.

The latest findings, however, which are published in the journal Geology, have shown that sediment on the island of Rømø on the west coast of Denmark, contain material carried by the powerful tsunami waves.

At the time sea levels would have been 65 feet (20m) lower than they are currently and the area was covered by a large lake.

Dr Freurgaard told Science Nordic: 'At some point there was a big inundation of sea water, which dumped a lot of marine sand at the bottom of the lack, along with (organic) material from the edges of the lake and the lake bottom.'

Nicolai Kliem, head of the sea and ice section at the Danish Meteorological Institute in Copenhagen who was not involved in the study, added: 'The fact the tsunami reached Denmark suggests that it was very strong.'

Tsunamis are one of the most devastating forces of nature and have claimed thousands of lives in recent years. The picture above shows a tsunami wave crashing into a street in Miyako City in northeast Japan following the 8.9 magnitude earthquake that struck the area in 2011

An orange GLOW could guide us towards alien life: Researchers finds mists could be key to finding habitable planets

• Research found faraway planet with orange atmospheric haze
• Planet could develop into the next Earth or currently hold life on it 
• Haze is similar to the haze that once covered the cooled young earth
• Researchers studied Earth from 2 billion years ago to learn if theory is true

An atmospheric haze around a planet could show that the world is potentially habitable, or even be a sign of life, researchers have found.

Researchers analysed data from Earth, and found at atmospheric haze once covered our cooling planet. 

This orange shroud could suggest the planet is potentially habitable or that there is life already there. 

An atmospheric haze, which is similar to the one that covered the once covered the cooled young Earth, was seen hovering over a planet in the distance. This orange shroud could suggest the planet is potentially habitable or that there is life already there

University of Washington doctoral student Giada Arney and co-authors chose to analyse Earth in its Archean era, about 2.5 billion years back, because it is 'the most alien planet we have geochemical data for'.

Using the Earth as a proxy for hypothetical exoplanets in computer modelling to simulate what such worlds might be similar and under what circumstance they might be suitable to support life has been a common method among Astronomers.

Newly Discovered Object Revives Speculation of Planet X - The likel...

Quote:

The big question is whether V774104 sweeps inwards from its present location, like Eris, or outwards, like the objects known as 2012 VP113 and Sedna.

Unexplained history

These bodies are currently slightly closer in than Eris, but investigations of their orbits show they will reach far deeper into space, out to 66 billion km and 140 billion km, respectively.

Models for Solar System formation suggest that such objects were probably not created in these weird, eccentric orbits.

One explanation is that they have been perturbed gravitationally and pulled on to their strange trajectories by a passing planet - perhaps one that was expelled from our Solar System early in its history.

Some scientists even speculate that such objects could have been stolen from a star that formed from the same "nursery" of gas and dust as our Sun 4.6 billion years ago.
