San Francisco - It would be very hard for microbes to get all the way from Earth or Mars out to the ocean moons, a new study suggests. If there are creatures swimming in the buried oceans of the outer solar system, they're probably not related to us, new research suggests.
Some scientists believe that life has hopped from world to world around the solar system, aboard chunks of rock blasted into space by comet or asteroid impacts. Indeed, there's a school of thought that the life teeming here on Earth is actually native to Mars, which likely boasted habitable conditions earlier than our own planet did. (This rock-riding idea is known as "lithopanspermia," a subset of the broader panspermia notion, which envisions spread by whatever means, either natural or guided by an intelligent hand.)

But what are the odds that such putative pioneers could colonize the habitable real estate much farther out — specifically, the Jupiter moon Europa and the Saturn satellite Enceladus, both of which harbor big oceans of salty liquid water beneath their ice shells?

As reported in the February 2018 issue of The MUFON Journal, the USS Princeton, a guided missile cruiser sailing about 100 miles from San Diego detected unusual radar signals from an object in the region.  The signals were erratic and did not correspond to any known aircraft.  Two F/A-18s from the USS Nimitz were launched to intercept the object.  Commander David Fravor, a 24-year veteran in the U.S. Navy pursued to the object and took video images of what he described as a “Tic Tac”-shaped object, about 40 feet in length.  The “Tic Tac” is shown in the center of the image on the left.

Recently, five Navy veterans were interviewed by Popular Mechanics magazine about their experiences following the engagement of Commander Fravor with the object.  Unusual radar signals came from the object as it would immediately alter its altitude, sometimes at 80,000 feet and at other times at 30,000 feet.  The UFO gave off a phosphorescent glow at night and would “dart around in various directions,” said Gary Voorhis, who witnessed the object through binoculars aboard the USS Princeton

Was there and could there still be life on Mars?  After examining a series of NASA Rover photographic images, an Ohio professor claims that there is likely evidence of both insect and reptilian life still exists on Mars.  Professor R. William Romoser, Ph.D., is a professor emeritus of arbovirology (the study of viruses transmitted by arthropods).  Professor Romoser, in a formal statement at the University of Ohio, says that there is an insect form of life now living on Mars.  The photograph to the left was taken by a Mars Rover.  To the left of the Rover’s track, Professor Romoser claims is an insect-like, creature (see insert).

Case 103775: One of the most bizarre missing time episodes comes from Arizona in 1995 . . . and thereafter.  Here are the words of the primary witness, the mother of a 14-year old daughter:
 
“In Tucson, my daughter and I were sitting in the living room one night in the 1990s when she grabbed her chest and started screaming.  I rushed her to the [emergency room] where they said her muscles had been dislodged from her chest which was like a football injury when a player gets their chest wall slammed, but I told them we were watching TV, and they said it was impossible to happen by watching TV.  I talked to another mother there, and the exact thing happened to her 14-year old daughter while watching TV.
 
“[We] left [the hospital] at midnight, exactly, and are only three minutes from the hospital.  I was driving on the overpass, I vaguely remember a blinding light engulfing my car and my daughter screaming, when suddenly my car was under the overpass facing the wrong direction, engine idling and the car clock flashing 1:30 AM.  1.5 hours of lost time.  I found my bearings and drove back up the overpass, and there was a UFO about 7 feet above my hood.  It was round, about 8 feet wide, made no noise, had red, blue and white lights spinning on the bottom of it.  I was in awe driving slowly, and it followed me home.  My daughter was terrified and screaming, ‘Go! Go! Go!’  We get to the house and my son and cousins are there and awake, and they see it hovering over the trees behind my house for over an hour.  My car had electrical problems. My cousin said someone had been on the roof trying to get in, and she dreamed it was tall, blonde aliens.
