This is the first step toward the Automated Fleet operations that is already active
UPDATED MAY 9, 2011: Just eight days after its first flight, Phantom Ray completed its second flight on May 5 at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. Phantom Ray took off at approximately 12:15 p.m. Pacific. Similar to its first flight on April 27, the autonomous vehicle taxied, flew to 7,500 feet, conducted several maneuvers and landed safely after a 17-minute flight. Phantom Ray seeks to demonstrate advanced technologies.
Phantom Ray makes first flight

Phantom Ray, Boeing's fighter-sized unmanned airborne system, takes off April 27 at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., for it first flight. Phantom Ray reached a speed of 178 knots and an altitude of 7,500 feet.
Phantom Ray, Boeing’s fighter-sized unmanned airborne system (UAS), took to the early morning skies April 27 at Edwards Air Force Base in California for its first flight.
The 17-minute flight was deemed a success, and program manager, Craig Brown, celebrated this significant milestone with the Phantom Ray Team.
“We were confident it would fly and perform well,” said Brown. “It feels great to have this first one under our belt.”
Phantom Ray took off at 9:05 a.m. Pacific and climbed to an altitude of 7,500 feet above mean sea level to demonstrate basic airworthiness. The unmanned aircraft, operating autonomously, gracefully banked and turned as it completed its racetrack flight path over the dry lake beds at Edwards.
The picture perfect flight came four months after Phantom Ray arrived in California in December from St. Louis on the back of a NASA Shuttle Carrier Aircraft to begin ground testing and high-speed taxi tests in preparation for its first flight. Phantom Ray was rolled out May 10, 2010, at a ceremony in St. Louis.
“It was a beautiful sight,” said Teri Finchamp, Phantom Ray’s manufacturing lead. “I’ve been part of this program since the beginning, and while I’ve imagined this day a hundred times, nothing can compare to actually seeing the Phantom Ray in the air.”
Brown, a former Air Force F-16 pilot, said first flight went as smoothly as the March taxi tests. “Watching it taxi and now fly, I think with the autonomy we’ve demonstrated we are definitely seeing the future of unmanned flight,” said Brown.
Phantom Ray will conduct additional flights in the coming weeks. It is one of several programs in Boeing’s Phantom Works division, including Phantom Eye, which is part of a rapid prototyping initiative to design, develop and build advanced aircraft and then demonstrate their capabilities. Boeing's portfolio of UAS solutions also includes the A160T Hummingbird, Integrator, ScanEagle and SolarEagle.
Team members ready the Phantom Ray, Boeing's fighter-sized unmanned airborne system, for its first flight on April 27 at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif.

Awareness of EBE Contact

David Jacobs      I would estimate that %99.99 of all abductees are unaware of what has happened to them. Perhaps many of them know that they have had strange, out of the ordinary experiences like missing time events, Out of Body Experiences, "astral travel," seen ghosts, or even had deceased relatives visit them at the foot of their beds, but these experiences are chalked up to "normality" oftentimes.      They have an available menu of culturally determined explanations of strange occurrences and they pick and chose among them to help explain what has happened to them. Only a tiny fraction of abductees have systematically explored their experiences with me or with Budd Hopkins and are fully aware of the situation that they are involved in. I have handed out a questionnaire geared toward helping me to gauge how many people might have had abductions. I have given it to about 900 students at Temple University over the past few years. Right now my sta...

The Mystery of Rh-Negative Blood Genetic Origin Unknown

  Authenticity and legitimacy are based on factual history and the power of sacred history. What Does the absence of Rhesus monkey factor mean? No solid scientific explanation exists as to how or why Rh- blood came about. It is presumed to be the result of a random mutation. Have you ever felt you were weird or different? It may be due to your DNA ... 85% of humans have the monkey gene (RH+) and 15% do not (RH-) and maybe have an alien gene instead. RH- people are characterized by higher IQs, sensitive vision, lower body temperatures, sensitivity to heat and sunlight, psychic power, ability to stop watches and electrical appliances and having extra vertebrae. This film explores the possibility that we were bred as a slave race for labor, since 97% of our genetic code is disabled, with only 3% left for us to survive. RH negative blood group is from ANNUNAKI heritage Of the human blood types, O is the most common. It is a universal blood type. Blood types are further bro...
