Are UFOs and aliens real? Have we been visited by aliens?

Logical analysis of the facts demonstrates not only the existence of advanced humanities and life on other planets, but their presence on our planet.

No UFO has ever been tracked on radar entering the Earth's atmosphere

There are thousands of documented cases of unexplained ships, hundreds of cases of governments hiding what they know, and decades of an attempt to encourage the populace to discard the facts as fantasy or foolishness.

The first photograph of a UFO was taken in 1883 by astronomer Jose Bonilla in Zacatecas, Mexico

Did the U.S. Government or someone associated with it use Newton to discredit the idea of crashed flying saucers so a real captured saucer or saucers could be more easily kept under wraps?

UFOs were often seen and photographed during NASA's space missions in the 1960s

Now, a lot of people in Ufology get all hot and bothered and defensive when a discussion of UFO disinformation surfaces.

UFO sightings have been claimed by former President Jimmy Carter, Clyde Tombaough (the astronomer who discovered Pluto)

The first documented UFO sighting is in the Bible. The prophet Ezekiel described a "great cloud with fire enfolding itself, a wheel in the middle of a wheel that descended and fired lightning bolts into the earth."

1 in 7 Americans say that they, or someone they know, have had an "encounter" with a UFO

Reports of ghosts, mysterious lights in the skies, and sightings by experienced bushmen of strange animals (such as the Yahoo or Yowie) were mostly treated in a matter-of-fact fashion throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries.

According to the law it is illegal for U.S. citizens to have any contact with extraterrestrials or their vehicles

There are an average of 70,000 reported UFO sightings every year, worldwide. That's an average of 192 per day.

One allegedly well-documented report stems from an interview in which astronaut Buzz Aldrin describes seeing a UFO during the Apollo 11 mission

According to some UFO aficionados, the Men in Black (MIBs) really do exist, and have been hammering on the doors of alien witnesses ever since the first appearance of flying saucers in 1947.

Liftoff Spacex Gets 1 Billion From Google And Fidelity

Excerpt from

nbcnews.com

SpaceX, the California-based rocket company that now has its sights set on a globe-spanning satellite constellation, says it has received a 1 billion investment from Google and Fidelity that values the company at more than 10 billion.

Advance reports about the investment had been rumbling for a couple of days, and those reports were confirmed in a statement issued by SpaceX on Tuesday: "Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) has raised a billion dollars in a financing round with two new investors, Google and Fidelity. They join existing investors Founders Fund, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Valor Equity Partners and Capricorn. Google and Fidelity will collectively own just under 10 percent of the company. "SpaceX designs, manufactures, and launches the world's most advanced rockets and spacecraft. This funding will be used to support continued innovation in the areas of space transport, reusability, and satellite manufacturing."The fresh round of financing came just days after SpaceX's billionaire founder, Elon Musk, visited Seattle to kick off a new project aimed at putting up to 4,000 satellites into low Earth orbit to provide low-cost Internet access.

Over the course of a dozen years, Musk has built SpaceX into a major player in the launch business, sending cargo ships to the International Space Station and telecom satellites to geosynchronous orbit. This month, SpaceX conducted an unprecedented, and almost successful, test of an innovative rocket landing system.

Musk says he wants the Seattle-based satellite project to "do for satellites what we've done for rockets."

During his Seattle appearance, he estimated that the satellite system could start providing data services by 2020, and that the entire constellation could be in place by 2030 or so. The cost of the venture could amount to 10 billion or more, he said.

Musk said the revenue generated by the venture could go toward building a city on Mars, thus advancing his long-held goal of turning humanity into a "multiplanet species."

Google has been eyeing investment opportunities in satellite networking for a long time. Last year, for example, it acquired a satellite startup called Skybox Imaging. Google also has invested in O3B Networks, which has already begun to put a satellite constellation in orbit.
