Ongoing Research Excerpts from DARPA’s Strategic Plan

DARPA (The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) recently released a 50+ page strategic plan highlighting some of the most advance research projects it is currently undertaking.  On page 9, section 2.6, DARPA outlines a “short list” of ongoing research.  We list the highlights here.

  1. High Energy Liquid Laser Area Defense System – You heard it here.  These are small high power laser weapons, i.e. weapons that shoot energy beams at the speed of light.  That’s fast.
  2. High Productivity Computing Systems – a.k.a. Super computers a.k.a. SKYNET from the Terminator mythos.
  3. Machine Learning – Cognitive machines.  Hmmm.  Again, we’ll reference SKYNET and Terminator.
  4. Neuroscience – In specific, projects that’ll create brain-machine interfaces.  Is this putting us one step closer to The Matrix?
  5. Real-Time Accurate Language TranslationTower of Babel my ass.
  6. Space, here we come.

Scary, but real, stuff.  You can find the full report here.

Which one of these research projects would you most like to see come to fruition?

Alien Life Forms on Mt. Everest!?!

A former astronaut is climbing Mt. Everest in a hunt for alien life on Earth. Read more here.

If there is alien life on Everest, do we really want to find it? Anything tough enough to survive in the harsh environment of Mt. Everest could be a serious threat to mankind. To illustrate this point, here are two stories that clearly portray the dangers of searching for alien life in the frozen and hostile climates of Earth.

Story #1 is H.P. Lovecraft’s At The Mountains of Madness, the terrifying story of a scientific expedition to the arctic that discovers the ruins of a vast alien civilization and the preserved remains of highly evolved creatures that aren’t as dead as they appear.

Story #2 is John Carpenter’s The Thing, which recounts another arctic expedition’s encounter with a deadly alien organism that’d been frozen under the ice for hundreds of thousands of years.

If you don’t knkow these stories, we highly recommend you familiarize yourself with them. They are a clear warning against the current exploration for alien life on Mt. Everest.

Here’s the trailer for The Thing.

‘Red Batter’: Mystery Substance in J.J. Abram’s Star Trek in Reality

**** Caution.  Possible SPOILER ALERT ****

J.J. Abram’s Star Trek features a Hitchcockian macguffin like few we’ve ever seen before.  It’s a mysterious substance referred to as ‘red batter’ by the film’s villain, Romulan Captain Nero.  Now, there is some debate right now over whether Nero called it ‘red batter’ OR ‘red matter’, but for the sake of giving this amazing substance more identity, we’re calling it ‘red batter’.

‘Red batter’ has the ability to reduce itself and matter around it into a singularity at a rapid, exponential rate.  As a bomb explodes on impact, ‘red batter’ gravitationally sucks in everything around it on impact.  The end result is that most awesome of interstellar objects, the fearsome black hole.

In J.J. Abram’s Star Trek, Captain Nero uses the ‘red batter’ (or ‘red matter’) to create a black hole in the center of Spock’s home world Vulcan.  This black hole devours the planet in a matter of minutes in a sequence that is, in our opinion, much more terrifying than Star War’s Death Star’s planet destroying laser beam could ever be.

Besides creating black holes, the ‘red batter’ can also affect time travel.  If you’ve seen the new Star Trek, you’ll know what I’m talking about.

Could such a matter exist in reality?  Perhaps.  A recent study, which you can read more about here, suggests that all particles are miniature black holes.  IF this is the case, than it is probable that there is a catalyst which would enable these miniature black holes, which are everything, to coalesce together at an exponential rate to create a rapidly growing black hole that devours everything in its path.

Could the Large Hadron Collider be a catalyst for such a reaction?  If so, what sort of defenses have we put in place?

And did Captain Nero say ‘red batter’ or ‘red batter’?  Personally, we think ‘red batter has a nicer ring to it.  What do you think?

Chemtrail Fallout In Bethesda, MD

Is the mysterious substance raining on Bethesda, MD fallout from chemtrails?  Read more here.

Washington news organizations are reporting that a white mystery substance has been falling on the area for sometime now, and people are starting to worry.  Local officials say they’ve traced the source of the material to a nearby construction site, but not everyone believes this answer.

Bethesda is home to NIH’s main campus (The National Institute of Health).  NIH is home to some of the most cutting edge medical research in the world.  Chemtrail conspiracy theorists think they could be conducting a new experiment on the people right outside their gates.  Chemtrail theorists say government agencies have been dumping chemicals into our atmosphere for years as part of a massive covert operation.  The purpose of the operation is said to be everything from population control to atmospheric modification for an alien race that has infiltrated the power elite.

Chemtrail sightings and evidence are rare in the Washington, D.C. area, and rarely is there evidence as visible as the substance currently raining down on Bethesda, MD.

DARPA Launches All Seeing Eye Into Stratosphere

Another step towards floating cities or Big Brother?  You decide.

DARPA is moving project ISIS into its demonstration phase.  ISIS (Integrated Sensor Is Structure) is a military project with goals to launch an autonomous statospheric-based airship equipped with supercharged sensors for surveillance.  The lightweight structure will hover high above earth for years and be capable of tracking objects as small as a child from up to 300 km away.

But, the idea of hovering surveillance structures troubles privacy groups like the Anti-Satellite SympathizersA.S.S. founder and president Neil Kaminskigee said the following: “It’s just one more step towards a totalitarian police state, in which every square inch of earth has a dedicated ’surveillance camera’ to watch over citizens.”

Others see this as another step towards floating airbases and cities.  Population control organizations have promoted the idea of permanent, stratosphere based structures to help alleviate overcrowding on the surface of our planet.
