**** 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.
Real Life Star Trek: DARPA Rewards VULCAN Engine Contracts
Filed under: Future Weapons, Outer Space, Science, Science Fiction, Technology, The Future
Right before the release of J.J. Abrams Star Trek reboot, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency kicks off their VULCAN Engine Program by rewarding four contractors with funding to begin first phase development of the proposed super engine system.
When we hear the word Vulcan, our thoughts wander to the Star Trek character Spock, his home planet, and his people. The VULCAN Engine Program is appropriately named since it is a “propulsion system demonstration effort to design, build, and ground-test an engine capable of accelerating a full-scale hypersonic vehicle from rest to Mach 4+.”
This could be our first steps towards a “warp drive” propulsion system like the one that propels the Enterprise across vast distances in space.

The Power of the Sun in the Palm of Our Hands
Filed under: Alien Intelligence, Aliens, Animal Intelligence, Discoveries, Science, Science Fiction, Technology, The Future
We could soon harness the power of a sun in a laboratory setting, ala Dr. Octopus’s mad scientist escapades in Spider Man 2. Or at least that’s what this experiment hopes to prove (report from WIRED.)
The project at the Lawrence Livermore National Ignition Facility plans to ignite a miniture star in a controlled lab environment using lasers. This tiny nuclear reactor could produce tremendous amounts of energy. For example, our sun blasts about 386 BILLION gigawatts of energy into space. A large nuclear reactor generates 1 gigawatt. Do the math. Even if we could create a star hundreds of billions times smaller than our sun, the energy output would still be massive. This could solve all of our energy problems as long as we can control the nuclear fusion and harness to power of a star. Worst case scenario = the destruction of earth if the star we build powers out of control.
This building could soon be home to a man-made baby star.
New Documentary Shines Light on Interstellar Exile Problem
Filed under: Alien Intelligence, Alien Invasion, Aliens, Astro Biology, Foreign Policy, Interstellar Politics, Politics
The documentary District 9 is a long overdue film about the serious issue of alien refugees. The resources of the universe cannot support the rapid growth of the universal population, and this is not the first, nor the last, case of alien civilizations being cast off of their home worlds due to overcrowding, pollution, and planetary apocalypses.
Theorists say Earth could be next in this disturbing trend of planetary exile. So far we’ve been lucky in that most of the alien refugees hoping to make our world their new home are not hostile, but analysts say we must be careful to not appear to weak as we accept more and more alien exiles.
“You can liken it to the position the Obama administration is finding themselves in with international relations,” says political correspondent Dan McGruffy. “President Obama is being simultaneously praised and criticized with his open arms approach to foreign policy, the fear being that we will appear weak. At the same time, there is no doubt that America needs to heal damaged relationships with foreign nations. The same problems arise with interstellar exiles. We do not want to appear harsh and insensitive while making it clear we will defend our resources. The question arises, who does Earth belong to? Earthlings? Or the universe? Do we have a fundamental duty to provide life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness to all beings? The bottom line is, as our population grows and we continue to accept more alien exiles, we risk accelerating the depletion of Earth’s resources, and we might find ourselves exiled as well.”
What do you think? Is it our duty to provide for interstellar exiles? What is the appropriate response to their needs?
