The pilots of three planes in the process of landing at Gatwick Airport in the UK on 30 December 2012, reported seeing two discs hovering above the airport. The first was the pilot of a Boeing 777, who reported spotting "two flat silver discs" at 0853 GMT.

The crews of a Boeing 767 and an Airbus 319 observed the same objects. The crew of the 777 described them as appearing manmade and looking like toys.

The local Scientology headquarters was just below the objects.

We’ve hesitated to post about the recent ‘Mars Rodent’ photo from the Curiosity Rover, largely because a place with such a thin atmosphere, no food sources and extremely cold temperatures is just darned unlikely to have mice. However, the image has proved to be a very odd one. First, it’s large, at least three feet long, so ‘rodent’ might not be quite the right word to describe it. ‘Large lizard’ or ‘small dinosaur’ might be more appropriate. Still, no animal developed to that level of complexity is going to be running around in an environment like Mars.read more
