AMINO ACIDS MAY EXIST IN SPACE

   Astronomers announced at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society
that they have evidence may prove that amino acids can exist in space.
   Using radiotelescopes, astronomers at the University of Illinois at
Champaign-Urbana detected traces of acetic acid in space in the
Sagittarius B2 cloud.  Acetic acid, which gives vinegar its taste and
odour, can form simple amino acids when combined with ammonia, which is
already known to exist in interstellar space.  Amino acids are essentially
the building blocks of life.
   "With the discovery of acetic acid, it is very plausible that simple
amino acids do exist in space," said Dr. Lewis E. Snyder, director of the
university's Laboratory of Astronomical Imaging.
   Even more complex molecules have been found before in interstellar
space.  Many researches speculate that important biological molecules
could form in space.
   Other researchers go as far as to say that such biological molecules
could have seeded Earth with life.  This theory is known as panspermia.
   "In 100 years, it may be appreciated that we are looking at part of the
answer here in astrochemistry, and that molecules arriving from space on
comets and asteroids perhaps were important catalysts for starting life in
the solar system," commented Snyder.

CLOSEST PLANETARY SYSTEM DISCOVERED

   Astronomers have discovered another planetary system.  This one is
located around the star Lalande 21185.
   However, this discovery is particularly intriguing, as Lalande is the
4th closest star to us, located only 8.1 light-years away from our sun.
   The four other planetary systems are located between 35 and 50
light-years away from us.
   Lalande itself is a red dwarf star.  One planet orbiting Lalande is
larger than Jupiter and is orbiting at approximately Saturn's distance (a
30-year orbit).  The other planet is a much smaller body with a 5.8-year
orbit.  It is located at approximately the distance from the sun to the
Mars-Jupiter asteroid belt.
   However, it is unlikely that either planet will be hospitable to life.
   However, the astronomer who reported this, Dr. George Gatewood, has
come under fire because there are some doubts regarding his results, and
they are yet to be confirmed by other astronomers.
   In any case, it is clear that we quickly determining the likelihood of
a planetary system being developed.  Such data would be useful for things
such as the Drake Equation - the greater number of planetary systems, the
higher the probability that more planets will be hospitable to life.
   Current instruments used to find planetary systems are only able to
find planets the size of Jupiter, which skews results.  New detectors are
being built by NASA to detect smaller planets.
   "It's too soon to tell how common planetary systems are," said Dr.
David Black. "We need to survey at least 1,000 stars, which will be done
in the next decade. Then we would get a statistical basis for estimating
the occurrences of planetary systems."

SOLAR SYSTEM TO ENTER INTERSTELLAR CLOUD

   For the last 5 million years, our solar system has been passing through
a region of space which is relatively empty.   However, we are now
expected to pass through an interstellar cloud in 50 000 years.
   The cloud is expected to be a million times as dense as the space in
the solar system now.
   "There will be an encounter," said Jeffrey Linsky. "We don't know when
or exactly how the Earth will be affected."
   Such as cloud would affect the solar wind, and perhaps compress the
heliosphere.
   Additionally, weather on Earth may be affected.  Earth's magnetic field
may be altered, and our atmospheric chemistry changed.
   Some researchers have suggested that previous ice ages have been caused
by our movement through an interstellar cloud.
   Priscilla Frisch notes that interstellar clouds may have an impact on
the existence of life.  Passage through interstellar clouds would create
unstable conditions on planets, and may prevent the formation of fragile
life.
   "Without stability in the local stellar environment, I doubt there
could be stable planetary climates hospitable to life," she said.

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

Image
  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...
