Weird Dinosaur with bat-like wings discovered in China

Near Wubaiding Village, Liaoning Province, China, paleontologists discovered a 163-million-year-old dinosaur fossil.


Research shows it belongs to scansoriopterygids, a group of tiny dinosaurs generally reconstructed as feathered tree climbers.

Unlike its relatives, Ambopteryx longibrachium had membranous wings supported by a styliform.

Researchers believe the dinosaur may have glided from trees. The bat-like wings were probably a short-lived design, tried before the later predominance of feathered wings.

Mysterious Explosion On The Far Side Of The Sun Caused By Crashing UFO

On March 20th, something exploded on the farside of the sun. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) saw the debris flying over the sun's eastern limb.


The blast site was hidden from view, so we don't know what exploded. It probably wasn't a sunspot. According to astronomers, more likely, a filament of magnetism became unstable and erupted, hurling bits of itself and surrounding plasma into space.

Hypothesis:

What about if this mysterious explosion on the farside of the sun has been caused by a celestial/ UFO object which has more devastating energy than anything we have ever seen so far and the bits of a filament of magnetism surrounded by plasma hurtling into space are in fact UFO spacecraft fragments from a huge alien ship shot down by a high energy discharge fired by this celestial/UFO object.


Many strange events are happening in space lately, think about the wave of huge alien ships and clusters of smaller UFOs, seen on the ISS live feed in February and first wee…

NASA cuts live feed when colorful UFO appears

Several days ago a colorful unidentified flying object was captured on the International Space Station live feed camera.


The footage shows the UFO in the distance when it turns around and seemly changing colors moments before NASA cuts the live stream.

It is not the first time that NASA cuts the live feed when a UFO appears and while normally the well known screen appears with the text: "The video from the space station External High Definition Camera (EHDC) has been interrupted due to to either loss of signal between the station and the communications network", this time we suddenly see a blue screen, then the live feed reappears for one second followed up by the blue screen again indicating that NASA intentionally ended the live stream to hide this UFO.

Giant Alien Spaceship Crossing The Sun (Live Footage)

It seems as if our sun has a lot of strange and unusually UFO activity this year. You may wonder why so many UFOs have been seen around the sun lately.


As we have written in our previous articles, does it have to do with an approaching solar storm or there is a space war going on?

Now, a new live footage captured by sky-watcher BruceSeesAll yesterday, shows a giant alien spaceship approaching the sun from the left, then crosses the sun to disappear into deep space only to deepens the mystery of the current UFO activity near the sun.

Besides the giant UFO, Bruces captured also what he believes is a second moon which he shows us in the second part of the video.

Did he really captured a second moon? Indeed a second moon exist.

The discovery was made on February 15 by US astronomers Theodore Pruyne and Kacper Wierzchos, using the telescope at Mount Lemmon Observatory. Follow-up observations allowed astronomers to trace its orbit, and calculated that this space rock, designed as 2020 CD3 …

Abandoned ancient machinery on Mars proves that the planet was once inhabited

If an advanced, intelligent species had once inhabited Mars, but went extinct for some reason, would we have any way to know it today?


Depending on how technologically advanced the civilization was some things will be visible.

Archaeological evidence of structures, tools or even machinery could tell us a lot.

The images below show some of the abandoned ancient machinery found on the planet Mars. Click on the images to enlarge in 1280 x 720 (HD).
