NASA's NEOWISE mission has detected one definite comet that will pass by Earth in the first week of 2017, as well as a second celestial object, which could be either a comet or an asteroid, that will also fly by. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech The "New Year's Eve Comet" that's been streaking across the sky this December isn't the only otherworldly visitor ringing in the new year in Earth's neighborhood. Wednesday (Dec. 28), NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory tweeted a video about Comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdušáková, which has been growing more prominent in the sky since Dec. 15. On New Year's Eve, the comet will be visible through a telescope or binoculars near the crescent moon, sporting a blueish-green head and thin, fan-shaped tail, NASA researchers said . But there will likely be two more comets (or a comet and an asteroid) in store for skywatchers in early 2017, NASA said. (Plus, Comet Catalina will still be visible with magnification...

Okay friends today we are gonna learn about the GHOST ARMY, which, disappointingly, was not actually an army made of ghosts pictured: the unit patch for the Ghost Army, which is DOPE AS FUCK see one of the things that made WWII so fucking nuts was the totally bizarre level of technology. Like wow we invented the first real computer and radar but also if you wanted to see how many troops were hanging out somewhere you had to send a dude to fly over and take pictures manually??? this left A LOT of room for shenanigans so the normal method of dealing with aerial surveillance was to cover shit with camouflage netting. Say you’ve got an nice air base that you really don’t want any bombs dropped on- you literally just cover that with a ludicrous amount of netting and some fake trees and BAM now it looks like just an empty field from the air there’s a building under that weird lump that’s cool! That’s really cool! But not cool enough At some point somebody sat down...

Blue UFO Watches Astronauts on the Moon There are multiple strange photos from the Apollo moon missions, but a recurring anomaly is the strange blue light. This blue light appears in multiple photos clearly visible against the black background of space. Nobody knows for sure exactly what it is but most believe it is an alien spacecraft. The astronauts did witness this anomaly and snapped multiple photos of it. It is a well believed by the paranormal and UFO community that the astronauts on the moon missions experienced alien activity while they were up there. Some even believe it’s the reason we stopped going to the moon. The photo on the right is very strange, the big blue light is very noticeable. However a second blue light can be seen closer to the astronaut when the image is zoomed in. The most common belief of those lights are aliens, but what do you think? Alien spacecraft or an issue with image processing? Let me know what you think!

I hope you enjoy: This strange narrative is a holiday season tradition on 'Phantoms & Monsters' . In fact, many of my regular readers have told me that it is their all-time favorite post. This story was forwarded to me in 1998. I was told that it is a true tale despite the bizarre details. Even though it is holiday related, I had some reservations since there is a combination of death and Christmas. Nonetheless...I receive many requests by other bloggers to use on their site: Hello – I have a dis...
