ASTEROIDS WITH WATER EXPLODE
We often receive reports of asteroids, meteorites or UFOs entering the
atmosphere. Many of these appear to explode and disintegrate, while others
change course and fly off in a new direction. My records show numerous
sightings of rare green fireballs dating back to the early 1930s. These do
not act like other meteorites. Scientists Kazushige Tomeoka and colleagues
have been conducting experiments in order to learn why most of the space
dust that falls to Earth is wet, while larger space rocks found on the
planet are usually dry as a bone. More than 97 percent of all meteorites
collected on Earth's surface lack water, while 30,000 tons of
interplanetary dust reaches the Earth's surface every year. Almost all of
this dust contains water, resembling the paltry 2.8 percent of known,
hydrated meteorites. Scientists have been left to assume that wet space
rocks simply don't survive the trip through Earth's atmosphere. Not buying
that explanation, Tomeoka's team decided to figure out what happens in
space when asteroids collide. With a specially designed gun -- they shot
meteorites with projectiles moving at up to 4,026 mph. The result was that
the watery meteorite was reduced to minute particles and produces explosive
expansion upon release of the pressure." "In contrast, the dry meteorite
does not show significant changes." The researchers conclude that what's
collected on Earth is a result of what happens in space. When watery
asteroids are hit -- dust explodes into space. When a dry asteroid is hit
by another rock, not much happens, dust wise.
"As a result of these differences in shock response, watery material would
become the predominant kind of dust particles produced by mutual collisions
of asteroids, Tomeoka said, adding that larger watery fragments would not
be abundant. Dust and rocks moving fast in relation to Earth frequently
slam into the atmosphere and burn up, generating shooting stars. Stuff
moving more slowly relative to Earth can be captured by the planet's
gravity and survive the plunge. Thanks to: SPACE.com see

Editor's Note: Unfortunately, the scientific team did not provide an
explanation for the green shooting stars that often change direction or
appear to hover in our skies.
UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT SEEN FLOATING OUTSIDE SPACE STATION
CAPE CANAVERAL -- WKMG TV Orlando, Florida reports, "NASA is trying to
identify a small object spotted floating outside the International Space
Station on June 12, 2003." Astronaut Ed Lu spotted the object outside the
window of the US laboratory and took pictures of it, Local 6 News partner
Florida Today reported. Ground controllers are analyzing Lu's photos but
don't yet have enough information about the object's direction of travel to
determine where it came from. The object, which has moved out of sight, is
likely from the station itself, according to the report. NASA is asking US
Strategic Command to use its resources to gather more information about the
object. Strategic Command was able to track a small object seen floating
near Columbia shortly after the shuttle-entered orbit on its last mission.
Ground controllers plan to transmit pictures of labels to Lu in hopes he
can compare them with the object he saw and possibly identify it. No
unusual events have occurred at the station that might explain the object.
Lu and cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko are in the middle of a six- month stay
aboard the station. http://www.local6.com/news/2267894/detail.html
NASA WORRIED OVER SUN'S ACTIVITY
Mitch Battros (ECTV) writes, "I have received several unofficial chatter
telling of NASA's grave concern with the unusual increase in solar
activity. Earth and particularly satellites, are at most risk. The rumors
suggest NASA has been handed a gag order' issued by DOD (department of
defense). The reason for this order is directed at our spy satellites. It
is suggested that 'in the name of national security' we cannot confirm or
deny recent and current solar activity is at dangerous levels. Over the
past week a reported 65 C-Class flares, 16 M-Class flares, and 2 X-Class
flares have occurred. Just the week prior, another 2 X-Class flares and 4
M-Class flares erupted. In addition to the solar flares, perhaps as many as
45 CME's (coronal mass ejections) emerged. Another area of concern is our
'power grids'. If Earth experiences a direct hit from any one of these
M-Class or X-Class flares, it could in fact cripple our infrastructure.
Some of you may remember what happened in 1989 when an X-Class flare ripped
through our Magnetic Field knocking out power grids all across parts of the
world. One area, which suffered a devastating hit during the winter months,
was Quebec, Canada where power grids where knocked out for almost two
months. This had occurred and people literally had to set up emergency
communities to survive. Those who had homes with "fireplaces" quickly
filled to as many as 20 to 30 people per household. An area of over 7
million people was reduced to using fires as a method of warmth and to cook
meals. I am a bit nervous of sunspot region 380. It is very large and is
set dead center, which could produce a direct, hit to Earth. An X-Class
flare occurred on June 16th erupting from this region. The question is in
what direction is it headed. Watch for "freak storms" to continue,
tornadoes or tornado-like winds, sudden rain and hailstorms are likely.
Also watch for 'record breaking' temperatures. Equation: Sunspots => Solar
Flares => Magnetic Field Shift => Shifting Ocean and Jet Stream Currents =>
Extreme Weather and Human Disruption

ELECTROLYTE CHANGES IN ABDUCTEES
Regarding last weeks article regarding electrolyte changes in abductees,
"My mother is very sensitive to EMR ... electromagnetic radiation." During
Solar and Geomagnetic Storms, her electrolytes get out of balance, that
drinking Gatorade daily helps to restore. Maybe that is why abductees have
similar problems. The very intense exposure to EMR may cause their
electrolytes and body to get out of balance. This high sensitivity to EMR
may cause them to think they have been abducted, when in reality they
haven't been. They may only have been exposed to very high levels of
electromagnetic radiation instead.
Editor's Note: Many abductees report seeing balls of light floating near
them indicating the area is highly charged with electrical energy and
electromagnetic radiation. It is known that the brain is susceptible to
imagining and fabrication under these conditions. Abductees often claim
these balls of light develop into aliens. Further research is needed. These
lights have been videotaped within people's homes. See floating light at:

USA TODAY ASKS: IS THERE ANOTHER EARTH OUT THERE?
Mike Andrews writes last week, you asked is there another Earth. "In the
religion of the Ancients whom I revere, there was an inner cadre of
enlightened sages and holy men who kept secret books." These were never
presented to the masses, but remained hidden within subterranean catacombs
and sanctuaries and were guarded with the utmost secrecy. In the latter
part of the 19th Century a new portion-albeit small-of the secret teachings
was released to the world through the Theosophical Society, co-founded by
Madam H.P. Blavatsky at Adyar, India in the 1870s. The portion of new
revelations released includes a fascinating segment about Earth's sister
planets, of which there are, accordingly, six. In the ancient teaching all
planetary spheres, including suns, are septempartite (seven-fold) in
nature, the same as a human is said to be.
Our earth is, according to the Ancients, is the fourth globe in a series
occupying the lowest position relative to the spiritual aspect of the other
six. The nearest *other* Earth is the Fifth planet in our chain. It is
invisible to terrestrial vision, however, and can only be seen by an entity
who has passed through a rigorous and difficult, long period of study and
of keeping the LAW. This, of course, alludes to initiation. In the future
of Humanity this Fifth planet will begin to become visible to the human
sensory mechanism; yet this will not happen any time soon. It should be
understood that this thing of gradually becoming visible has little to do
with changes to the Fifth sphere ... but everything to do with human
spiritual progress. Because of our close proximity to this Fifth Earth (and
the Third, as well) it's highly possible that many of the luminous objects
seen in the sky (and some not so luminous) have originated on a neighbor
bearing our own namesake. You no doubt realize that the Humanity we belong
to is rather insignificant in the overall scheme of things, and that the
universe is literally filled-even in the apparent "voids" between the
visible planets-with sentient beings.
We tend to become intoxicated by the form aspect of our ultra-material
lives. True understanding of whom and what those objects in the sky are
requires some hard work in contemplation upon the inner Nature. Snip.

NEW YORK - UFO LANDS IN FIELD?
SARATOGA -- Debbie writes, "I have recently heard a report of UFO sighting
in Saratoga Springs, on Glenmore Avenue on June 14, 2003. A UFO supposedly
landed in a field and set off car alarms in the neighborhood and got the
dogs barking. Please advise if you have heard anything regarding this

GEORGIA - TEARDROP AND GREEN TEAR SHAPED LIGHT
ATHENS -- On Wednesday, June 4, 2003, at midnight, eyewitness Juliet S. was
outdoors at her home in Athens located 67 miles east of Atlanta when a UFO
appeared from the northeast."It was a big bright light that lit up the
whole area," Juliet reported, "I saw it in the sky floating, and it flew
along about 20 feet in the air over my head. It was a bright purplish
color, sort of magenta, and it looked like a big raindrop. And I heard a
noise that sounded like electricity mixed with a type of gerbil noise. It
went about 70 miles per hour." "I was freaked. I thought my family was in
danger. It was not seen by anyone else in the part" of Athens, Ga. "where I
live." (Email Report) thanks to UFO ROUNDUP Vol. 8 # 21, June 11, 2003

DOUGLASVILLE -- A Delta Air Lines employee writes that, I want to report a
short sighting on my way to work this morning on June 12, 2003, at 4:47 AM.
I was heading south on North Burnt Hickory Road, about one mile south of
the Cobb/Douglas County border. "A green tear shaped light flew in front of
my vehicle moving from my left to my right, at about 1500 feet (the point
of the tear was at the back like a short tail). The speed would be hard to
estimate, but it was somewhere between the speed of a shooting star (it was
slower) and an airplane (it was faster). It appeared to be about 1/4 inch
in size and made no sound. There was a vehicle directly behind me, but I
don't know whether or not that vehicle saw the light. I watched it
disappear behind a tree and as I drove south I caught another glimpse of it
once the tree moved out of my field of vision. It appeared as it would
crash but I never heard any noise. It may be psychological, but for a
second I felt as if I had passed through an electrical field. There are
high-tension wires in the general area (about 1/2 mile or better north).
Email report.
ALABAMA - OVAL UFO Sighting
CULLMAN - The observer reports, "I saw a yellowish green oval shaped object
with red and white lights surrounding the outside of the flying object on
June 1, 2003." The object appeared to be bigger than a full moon at 10:30
PM, and was moving south brightly lit up. My dad told me to run get the
video camera and I got the object on video. I ran and got the car and my
mother and I tried to follow it, so we could get more video, but we were
unsuccessful. It was moving too quickly for us to film it, but we could see
it in the distance very briefly. Three family members sent in reports
concerning the sighting. Peter Davenport reports they are investigating
locally to establish whether the object might have been an illuminated
blimp. PD))
TENNESSEE - RECTANGLE AND TRIANGLE SHAPED FIGURE
NASHVILLE - Two friends were playing tennis at McGavock High School on
Sunday, June 1, 2003, at 3 PM. The eyewitness says, "I only saw the object
for a couple of seconds that was a white square with no reflection." There
was a large yellow blimp flying overhead in the distance, going west and
the sun was behind me on a partly cloudy day. I looked up, saw the blimp
and some airplanes and a white rectangular shaped object, that may have
been a dull silver color. It was very small, but not too small to tell its
shape. It appeared to cut across the path above the blimp while we were
relatively close to the airport. I only saw it for a second, then it was
gone. I kept looking, but did not see it. I told my friend, but he did not
see it. He knows me well enough to know I was not lying. <A

HIXSON - The witness spotted a UFO with a fiery glow with a glowing light
going from side to side on June 9, 2003. He says, "It was about 100 to 200
feet above me moving north at a controlled speed at 10 PM and looked like a
stealth aircraft but with a bright orangeish fiery glow. It was a clear
night and the object was extremely visible. I ran back into the house to
get the camera and took a picture but it was already far off. I wish I
didn't hesitate on getting my camera.

OHIO - PHOTOS OF DISCS AND CYLINDERS
NW OHIO -- George Ritter reports he was video taping on May 17, 2003,
during the afternoon and taped lots of discs and some unusual craft like
I've never seen before. I started taping at 2 PM, 242 VHS on tape #, and
the first object was found 23 minutes and 58 seconds into the tape. In all
thirty objects were recorded on the film that was shot. The last object was
at 3:59 PM. Many of the objects can be viewed at my website. Thanks to

ARKANSAS - CROP CIRCLES
KNOBEL -- There were 10 circles, each 10 feet apart and varying in size
from 8 to 31 feet in circumference. The wheat crop was bent or broken (not
established yet) and laying in a clockwise rotation. According to the
investigator from the Clay County Carrier Newspaper, there were no prints
and no marks inside any of the circles. One circle had an undisturbed small
bird's nest in the center. The wheat was undisturbed at the spot where the
bird's nest sat. The circles were first noticed on Saturday, June 7th by
farmer/pilot Bruce Katt, from Korning, Arkansas as he flew over the area.
Mrs. Katt gave me the phone number of Clay County Co-op Extension Agent who
gave me many of the details. She will e-mail me a photo that was taken on
Sunday, June 8th by Fred Martin, reporter with the Clay County Carrier. The
farmer, Todd Young, went ahead and harvested the crop and burned the field.
I do not know if samples were taken prior to the harvesting and burning. I
am still trying to reach him. The Jonesboro Sun and KAIT8 TV in Jonesboro
reported on the anomaly. I understand that Nancy Talbot is going to go over
and make an investigation of it. Thanks to Jean and Richard Seifried,

MISSOURI - SIX DAYTIME SPHERES
<A HREF="www.nuforc.org">NUFORC</A> - The witness reports, " I personally
viewed 5 of 6 objects moving from one horizon to the other at a great
altitude and at a great rate of speed at 11:35 AM on the morning of June 9,
2003." My neighbor, whom I was visiting, suddenly jumped up and pointed to
the sky and said "Jesus what was that?" I had not seen the first of what
was eventually to become a total of six objects that came streaking across
the sky from horizon to horizon at a great altitude and an enormous rate of
speed. The individual objects appeared one at a time at about three or four
minute intervals, all coming out of the southwest and bearing to the
northeast in what seemed to be a fanning out pattern originating in the
southwest. Each of the individual objects streaked across our plain of view
from horizon to the top of a tree line 30 degrees above the northeast
horizon in six to eight seconds. It flew a vast distance in a relatively
short amount of time. None of the objects had a wingspan or tail and they
appeared to me as being just bright silvery orbs streaking across the sky
without a vapor trail or a mechanical noise such as is found in commercial
air flights or military flights. Both witnesses are former members of the
military and quite credible.

LENEXA -- Six small silvery-white spherical shapes were seen moving very
rapidly across the daytime sky on June 9, 2003, one at a time, over a 15
minute period around 12:35 in the afternoon. The eyewitness states, " I
suddenly sat bolt upright, the realization hitting me that I couldn't
identify what I had been watching, and said to my friend, "What the hell is
that?" He didn't see it, but suddenly there was another, coming from the
northeast. I quickly pointed this one out to my friend, and he immediately
spotted it and began tracking it across the sky. Now, I consider myself a
serious aviation enthusiast, and I know military aircraft better than most
people, even other enthusiasts. I served in the Air Force as a flight line
mechanic, and my buddy who was with me served in the Navy where he
specialized in guided missiles. The objects didn't "float" on any breeze,
they were on a laser straight course and moving at a very high rate of
speed. They didn't seem to be burning or breaking up as any other meteor
does, they didn't emit any sound and left no vapor trails or contrails.
They didn't disturb the air at all. And any aircraft moving as fast as
these were would most certainly have broken the sound barrier and delivered
the telltale thunderous 'clap'.
As we stood staring in utter disbelief at the sky, the object quickly
disappeared beyond the horizon. After a minute or two there came another
object, again moving from the same general direction. Some looked slightly
larger than others, giving the indication of a difference in altitude or
size. I dialed my brother in Idaho and excitedly told him what we were
witnessing, as we spoke. They kept coming, a few minutes apart, until we
counted six altogether. At one point, I watched one of the objects (which
seemed either larger or lower in altitude) moving at a slower pace than the
rest. As it neared the far horizon, roughly 70% of the way across the
viewable sky, it seemed to suddenly accelerate. This was my first sighting
of anything I could consider as even possibly having been of a
non-terrestrial nature. <A HREF="www.nuforc.org">NUFORC</A> Note: Peter
Davenport spoke with this witness on several occasions, and we found him to
be exceptionally credible.
ARIZONA - FORMATION CLOSE TO GROUND INVESTIGATION
PICACHO PEAK -- The witnesses were driving south on I-10 on May 31, 2003,
when they noticed an object flying at a high speed in irregular patterns at
1 AM. They state, "We noticed an object flying close to the ground on the
other side of the freeway going in the same direction with a row of three
lights. We could not make out a shape due to its color and brightness.

described. It's a really neat thing to watch if you're into aircraft.

WASHINGTON - TWO GREEN-FIREBALL UFOs SEEN
OMAK -- On May 28, 2003, at 10:30 PM, the male eyewitness was outdoors at
his home in Omak, 125 miles northwest of Spokane, when he spotted "a UFO
heading north towards Alaska" Forty minutes later, a second one headed the
same way at 11:10 PM. The first one came from the southeast, and the second
one came straight from the south over Omak. They were both heading north
towards the Mackenzie Mountains." They both glowed green, and looked like
glowing green balls. They both seemed to be traveling fast when I saw them,
till they disappeared about four seconds later." I got the impression that
they were trying to imitate a planet. They were in outer space with the
stars." (Email Form Report) UFO ROUNDUP Vol. 8 # 21, June 11, 2003 Editor:

CANADA DISC
CONCORD, ONTARIO -- John P. writes, Why do you go on about UFO sightings? I
am a contactee and have the visitors in my home? Every sighting you
advertise includes a bright light! Or a bluish light! Or a whitish light!
Bull! The UFO I saw was in broad daylight and had no lights at all! "For
some reason, I do not know why, a large dull gray metal sphere appeared
over the rail yard where I was working (Macmillan Yard in Concord Ontario).
We were having noon lunch and I happened to gaze out the window and
summoned the men there, "Hey look. A genuine UFO." Not many were interested
but Alex, said, "Interesting...." Then Edward, who smirked and said
,"Where?" I had to point it out. He started swearing his head off and ran
back to his seat, yelling, "I didn't see anything! I didn't see anything!"
Interesting reactions. He now denies it. The UFO hung there immovable, no
motion. We watched it a few minutes, then Alex sat back down to his meal.
Another strange reaction. When it was just me looking, it darted off,
circled the yard, which is miles across, then I think I saw it again in the
distance, westward. It was too big for a balloon...at least 10 meters
across. No noise, no clouds, no wind, no lights, no windows and it moved
smoothly. Thanks to John P. email report.
SCOTLAND GREEN CYLINDER
DUNOON -- On Sunday, May 25, 2003, a couple was walking down a hill in the
West Bay section of Dunoon, Argyllshire when they saw a bright green-yellow
oblong shape moving really quietly horizontally across the top of the
Bishop's Glen Hills. The female witness reports, "They both saw the same
thing and noted that there was no noise." "It was traveling faster than the
speed of the (RAF) fighter jets that fly over here on training regularly.
The object made no noise, moved quickly, was 'luminous' green/yellow, and I
noticed slight pinkish tinges around the edges. Then it just disappeared."

TURKEY - NUMEROUS SIGHTING AND PHOTOS CONTINUE
BURSA - On May 8, 2003, three witnessess observed two hovering UFOs. Canan
Demir states: "On that day at our office at the Bursa Acemiler Catalogue
filming, we went for a cigarette break to the balcony and saw two UFOs
travelling from the I.zmir Way towards Uludag a few minutes just after
sunset." The UFOs came up suddenly amongst the trees and at first starting
hovering independantly from each other and made a few turns on top of the
trees as we could see. They moved more in a zig-zag manner, and these
movements led us to believe that these objects were not typical airplanes
or any other aircraft of worldly technology." Especially the bigger one
which had a metallic structure could be seen although it had lights
surrounding it. At that moment I went inside to get my digital camera, and
my friend said that one of the UFOs disappeared behind the trees. As I was
preapring to photo the sighting it reappeared. As you can tell from the
photo it was near the trees while I was photograhing it. When I lowered my
camera the UFO on top of the trees elevated to the height as the other UFO
and then proceeded quickly to take off in the direction of Uludag (South)
and then vanished from sight. Due to this speed we were unable to
photograph the second sighting because it did not come out . Thanks to

INDIA - MOVING STAR SEEN IN BROAD DAYLIGHT
BANDRA -- This sighting happened at Bandra a suburb of Mumbai on June 7,
2003, at 5:15 PM. The witness reports, "I was having a late afternoon break
with my colleagues when I noticed a star like object high in the sky next
to the moon, which was in the mid sky." The sun was still dazzling and I
was having difficulty looking at the sky because of the glare. I pointed it
out to my colleagues and we all started wondering what that thing might be.
We have never seen a star in broad daylight. After a few minutes we noticed
that the object was not stationary but was gradually moving further away
from the moon. We waited for nearly 15 minutes watching it move ever so
slowly. I had to go back to the office for a few minutes and when I came
back the object had vanished. This means that the object was not a star.
The object was fairly high in the sky and well above the clouds.
I have been a keen sky watcher since my childhood and have seen stars,
planets, planes, satellites, comets, meteors, balloons, etc., but this
object does not fit into any of these categories. What was it? A rare
celestial or atmospheric phenomenon, or some secret air force flying
vehicle on surveillance or anything else I would like to know. I read about
the recent sighting of a white object over Baku in Azerbaijan, may be this
thing was something similar. Thanks to Randhir and UFOINDIA

NEW ZEALAND - RARE GREEN METEOR LIGHTS UP MORNING SKY
AUCKLAND - Amanda Kyne reports, "A rare bright-green meteor flew across the
sky early June 12, 2003, surprising early risers around the country."
Denise Buckton of Auckland's Blockhouse Bay said she gasped when she saw
the meteor from her living room window. "It was lovely to look at. It had
the same brightness as a flare." Stardome Observatory spokesman Warren
Hurley said the meteor was particularly bright and larger than average, at
20-50cm in diameter. It flew across at 7:07 AM, providing a rare daytime
spectacle. It was first visible at an altitude of about 80 km in the north
and at about 20 km when last seen in the south. "It's rare to see them of
that size," Mr. Hurley said. It traveled from Whangarei to Edendale, near
Invercargill, and was visible for 10 seconds down the East Coast of New
Zealand. Meteors, which are leftover debris from the solar system, travel
at 17 km a second.
