A spectacular collection of UFO photographs has surfaced allegedly taken from aboard the US submarine Trepang in 1971. The images could be any number of different things, including practice targets or dirigibles, but one of them, showing a large cylinder, is eerily reminiscent of one of the most powerful letters ever received by Whitley and Anne Strieber, which was published in the Communion Letters.

Scores of wildfires are burning across the Western Canadian wilderness, with more than 2 million hectares of woodland currently burning. 1,400 soldiers have been called into Saskatchewan alone, to relieve the 600 exhausted firefighters that have been battling the province-wide blazes.

The refugees have been scattered across Saskatchewan and Alberta, now housed in community and recreation centers across the two provinces.
