EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
- We've seen planetary parameters like geocentric distance and
"elongation" (visual angle between a planet and the sun) correlate
strongly with UFO sighting data. Normally the strongest
correlations show up when the planetary data is time shifted 10s of days.
- It turns out parts of each year show a -ve correlation between
geocentric distance and UFO sightings -- i.e. the closer the planet
is the more UFO sightings there are in following days. We might
interpret that as UFO's arriving after a trip of several days from
that planet result in more sightings that usual.
- But at other times of the year there is a +ve corr between the
geocentric distance and sightings. I.e. the further the planet gets
from the earth the larger the number of sightings. We might
interpret that as UFO's buzzing around, waiting to make the trip to
the relevant planet(s).
- Over a long enough range of time lags we can see the cycle of +ve corr,
0 corr, -ve corr, and 0 corr seems to repeat, possibly with stronger
correlations at the peaks as years go by.


I read somewhere a comment from a couple of the guys that were at the
2004 Nimitz/Tictac incident.

Over a period of several days a group of UFO's that were difficult to
see on fleet radars suddenly appeared off Catalina Island and
proceeded at "a leisurely pace" and relatively low altitude due S where
they would eventually disappear.

The radar guys didn't know what to make of it. They checked their
equipment but it seemed OK. The various bigwigs in the fleet exercise
ignored the reports. At first.

On the 4th or 5th day there were a couple of spare planes hanging
around and they were ordered to go an check out what the hell those
things were.

Big surprise when they got to the area. Reports are a bit confused but
at least one unusual object was seen that avoided interception with
40g turns and super-cruising at low altitude over the ocean. Reports
are again confused but it seems the object or objects in question not
only were invisible to aircraft radar but had the ability to become
invisible to sight as well.

Reports are again confused but there may also have been a large
underwater object moving around in the area at the same time. If so it
was invisible and inaudible to a sub that was also in the fleet
exercise going on at the time.

The comment from "the guys" was the objects seemed to behave like they
were on some kind of annual migration -- like whales.

I've been looking at how various planetary data correlate with UFO
sightings. Previously I posted some data showing there were large
correlations between the geocentric distance of various planets and
e.g. the NUFORC day-to-day sighting numbers. By "time shifting" the
planetary data we tried to maximize the similarity of various curves
and found what seemed to correspond transit times from various planets
showed up.

~ ~ ~

Using the estimated lags and the known planetary distances a rough
estimate of transit times showed up that seemed to be roughly
consistent from planet to planet -- i.e. planets further out in the
solar system showed longer transit times.

The AI s/w I'm using has been continuously chugging away doing its
"correlate everything with everything else" and has now come up with a
few more interesting observations.

Using detailed tabulations of different lags for each planet and UFO
type it now suggests there is not only some traveling from other solar
planets to earth but also vice versa. On what seems to be an "annual migration".

At some times of the year there is a significant negative correlation
between geocentric distances and UFO sightings. I.e. the closer
various planets get to the earth the number of UFO sightings goes up
in a parallel too close to be just luck.

But the latest numbers show at OTHER times of the year there is a +ve
corr between geocentric planetary distances and UFO activity. I.e. the
further away a planet is getting the more UFO activity -- exactly the
revers of the other part of the year.

For the rest of the year there is essentially no corr between
planetary distance and UFO activity.

This same pattern is observed for each planet but the type of UFO
involved in the sighting has some effect. It seams some UFO types
are associated with some planets, and other types are associated
with other planets. I'll leave it to the interest reader to discover
whether any UFO type is not associated with any other planet. :)

The simple interpretation suggested is some UFO's are involved in some
kind of annual migration to and from various planets.

At some times of the year they are buzzing around on earth because
their destination planet is too far away or maybe is behind the sun
(requiring some tedious or maybe impossible-for-UFO-tech maneuvering
to get there).

Some of those UFO's apparently buzz off toward their remote
destination leaving number of sightings uncorrelated with planetary
distances for a couple months. Then the migration is reversed and the
closer the various favoured planets get the higher UFO sightings move
in spooky parallel again.

I've generated a bunch of plots to show which planets are apparently
involved with which UFO types and "how long" the to and fro journeys
may be taking. In line with previous posts on this topic it seems "top
speed" for the various journeys is still in the 100-1000 km/sec range.

Interesting also is that some UFO types (e.g. "lights", "fireballs")
that may be associated more with meteors than unusual aerial objects
indicate a slower transit time of around 40 km/sec -- exactly in line
with asteroid belt speeds. Those parts of the curves may more
correspond with rocks being kicked out of the asteroid belts by
Jupiter and Saturn. The curve shows the speed distribution of those
incoming rocks, itself an interesting byproduct of the processing.

Army Research Develops `Living Material' that Interacts with its
Environment
Syn-SCOBY is a new living material developed by Army Research backing.
Inspired by the trendy Kombucha tea, "Syn-SCOBY" is a living material
capable of detecting and defending itself from threats in its
environment.
Tim McMillan
The Debrief, 5 Feb 2021
Backed by the US Army Research Laboratory, engineers from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Imperial College London
have developed a durable, "living material" capable of detecting and
protecting itself from threats and interacting with its environment.
According to Army Research Labs, the unusual source of inspiration
behind this breakthrough living material was a mixture of bacteria and
yeast similar to what is used to make a trendy fermented beverage
called Kombucha tea. Combining a symbiotic culture of bacteria and
yeast, also called SCOBY, engineers created cellulose embedded enzymes
that could sense its surroundings and function like a living material.
