One of our video experts says of this video, "I have no opinion about this, but it doesn’t feel obviously faked." The video shows an object that is maneuvering near a helicopter over an unidentified Irish village. The helicopter and the object are far away, but a close listen to the video does reveal the sound of the helicopter rotors. In addition, the object undertakes maneuvers that can’t be carried out by planes, balloons, helicopters or any known form of aircraft.

What could it be? The object could be a simple animation. It’s too far away and too low res to be certain. It could be an insect much closer to the camera, but this seems far-fetched. Our verdict: possible unknown.

The BBC is reporting that an airliner had a near miss with an unidentified flying object over Glasgow on December 2. A just-released report from the Airprox Board says that the object passed 300 feet beneath the A320 Airbus, which was at 4,000 feet. The pilots observed an object ‘looming’ ahead of them at a distance of a few hundred meters. They had little time to observe it, but agreed that it was blue and yellow or silver, and had a narrow frontal area. They felt that it was larger than a balloon, but hardly had time to observe it before it was gone.

Authors such as Graham Hancock have claimed that the real human past is very different from what conventional research suggests and now conventional archaeological methods have revealed that Stonehenge, long thought to date from 2,500 BC, actually dates from 5,000 years before that, or 7,500 BC.

Excavation near Stonehenge found remains of a settlement dating back to 7,500 BC, revealing the site was occupied some 5,000 years earlier than previously thought.

Working at Vespasian’s Camp in Amesbury, Wiltshire, less than a mile from the megalithic stones, a team led by archaeologist David Jacques of the Open University unearthed material which proved that people settled there as early as 7,500 BC, not the 2,500 BC that has been previously thought.

Graham Hancock was recently censored by the TED organization for daring to suggest in his recent TED Talk that consciousness was a mystery, not simply a side-effect of brain function. TED’s censorship of Graham Hancock and Rupert Sheldrake caused an international wave of angry protest from members of the public, TED members and scientists. Here, Graham describes just what happened, and why he believes that the whole paradigm that consciousness is only an effect of brain function is disintegrating.
