A Supreme Court ruling, has forced the Smithsonian institution to release classified papers dating back to the turn of the century. which could prove the organization was involved in a monstrous historical coverup.
During the court case, new elements were brought to light, as several whistle blowers admitted to the existence of documents, that allegedly proved the destruction of tens of thousands of human skeletons, reaching between 6 feet and 12 feet in height.

A possible UFO has been caught by a timelapse camera over the skies of Hawaii.
The object which looks like a tube, appears to be traveling at a tremendous speed as it enters earths atmosphere.
We cannot rule out the possibility that this object is an extraterrestrial craft of some kind, possibly targeted in earths orbit by a military space weapon system, or perhaps the result of a catastrophic equipment failure onboard the craft.
Sometimes an image is captured that just cannot be explained.
The bizarre, and often ambiguous, photographs in this article have remained unexplained for over half a century in some cases, but it's uncertain if we will ever know the truth about their origins.
But the question is, which stories leave you genuinely baffled and which snaps have a perfectly simple explanation? Check out the list below and judge them for yourself.
1. Babushka Lady
One of the witnesses who saw Kennedy's truly shocking assassination first hand is now the most mysterious thing about the whole event.
'Babushka Lady' is a woman who appeared in numerous films that depict the final moments of the beloved American president's life, but she has never been formally identified, despite extensive FBI investigations.
Police were desperate to locate the woman because in some shots of the assassination, she can be seen standing with her camera at her face after the shooting when all the other pedestrians have taken cover.
A woman named Beverly Oliver came forward in the '70s claiming to be 'Babushka Lady,' but she did not have any photos to prove she was the person in the film, and many people suspect she was simply seeking attention. Oliver herself claims that the police took the film and never gave it back.
2. Hessdalen Lights
The Hessdalen lights are a bizarre phenomenon that only occur in the Hessdalen valley in Norway.
These unexplained lights have been sighted since the '40s and have been photographed hundreds of times, but to this day nobody knows why they occur.
The strange lights often appear as dazzling yellow or white lights of unknown origin hovering above ground level. The same light can often be seen for an hour or more.
It's been theorized that the Hessdalen lights might be caused by a battery effect caused by metallic rocks and a sulfurous river. But that hasn't stopped UFO investigators getting very excited by the mysterious site.
3. Hook Island Sea Monster
The Hook Island Sea Monster was photographed by the Le Serrec family in 1964, and it has been one of the most mysterious cases in cryptozoology ever since.
The gigantic tadpole like creature was reported to be 80 feet long, and just when Le Serrec was beginning to think it was dead, the sea serpent opened it's toothless mouth and swam away.
According to the Le Serrec family, the creature possessed eyes on the top of it's head with pale coloring and had smooth black and brown skin. Nothing like it has ever been spotted again.
While there are theories that the Hook Island Sea Monster is in fact a giant piece of plastic, it has never been proven that this beast is definitely a hoax.
4. Solway Firth Space Man
Back in 1964, a father took an ordinary family snap of his daughter on Burgh Marsh, but when it was developed somebody very strange appeared in the background. An astronaut.
The photographer, a British firefighter named Jim Tempelton claims that:
I took three pictures of my daughter Elizabeth in a similar pose – and was shocked when the middle picture came back from Kodak displaying what looks like a spaceman in the background
Tempelton was adamant he didn't see anybody else near his little girl while he was taking the photo all the way up to his death in 2011.
Kodak analyzed the photo and confirmed that it has not been tampered with in any way, but some experts think their could be another explanation...
Journalism professor David Clarke theorizes that the 'space man' could in fact be the overexposed shape of Tempelton's wife from behind.
5. The Cooper Family Photo
The photo above is one of the most chilling of its kind on the internet, but it's origins are incredibly unclear.
The back story attached to the image name the family as the Coopers from Texas, but there is little to no explanation centering around the handing body that has emerged from the ceiling.
While the swinging 'corpse' is probably the result of an accidental double exposure (taking two photos on one piece of film), that still doesn't explain how such an eerie image of a hanging man was taken in the first place...
6. Geophone Rock Anomaly
Photo AS17-135-20680 was taken by Apollo 17 near "Geophone Rock," but the image was officially cataloged as being blank.
However, if you alter the saturation and contrast of the image, the photo appears to be hiding some sort of pyramid structure on the moon's surface.
The resulting image is so crude, that it could just be an imperfection on the overexposed film, but some people are adamant that there is a lot more on the moon that has been hidden from the general public.
7. The Disappearance of Elisa Lam
The mysterious death of Elisa Lam is the most modern, and most strange unexplained event on this list.
On February 19 2013, the 21-year-old Canadian student's naked body was found in one of the rooftop water tanks of Los Angeles' Cecil Hotel. Lam had been missing since January 31 and her decomposing corpse was only discovered when hotel guests complained of water that "tasted funny."
Lam's last moments alive were captured on film in the hotel's elevator, and the disturbed behavior you can see in the video above is truly chilling.
Lam had a history of bipolar disorder which might explain her behavior in the elevator (no drugs were detected in her system during an autopsy), but there is still not an adequate explanation as to how the petite young woman could have put herself in the the water tank.
These huge and hard to access water silos had incredibly heavy lids and although they weren't locked, they were alarmed. How Lam 'accidentally' drowned in these circumstances is still an absolute baffler.
Whoever did the burying definitely had a system. The mummies are found organized by hair color (most were blondes and redheads) or by the condition of their teeth – blondes with blondes, no cavities with no cavities. Genetic tests may eventually explain other groupings. These were economy funerals – the bodies did not have their organs removed like the pharaohs did, there were no mummy portraits accompanying the bodies and the mummification was accomplished naturally by the dry desert air.
Then there’s the giant. One male mummy measured over seven feet tall and had to be folded to fit in the burial shaft. Dr. Muhlestein thinks his size was caused by a medical condition.
With almost a million mummies yet to be uncovered, many more mysteries remain.
A picture is said to be worth a thousand words, though fact versus fable can be difficult to determine when evidence is limited and theories run wild. Stories associated with these images are not easy to explain or even not at all probable. Here are 10 of the most mysterious and unexplained Moon photos that probably have an altogether explanation.
Once the home of a famous beer baron and his family, St. Louis, Missouri landmark Lemp Mansion is now a favorite destination for ghost hunters, and for good reason: in 1980, Life magazine named the house one of the “Ten Most Haunted Places in America.”
The house was built in 1868 and bought in 1876 by William Lemp Sr., who had taken over the family’s brewing business after his father’s death in 1862. It was later expanded to the luxurious estate seen today. The building also contains many secret passageways, some of which linked the house (which also served as Lemp’s business office) with the nearby brewery.
When William Lemp Sr.’s son Frederick died of a heart attack at age 28, the family’s legacy of misfortune began. Further tragedies took their toll on William Sr., who took his own life in 1904, just three years after his son’s death. More tragedies followed, including the death of William’s mother from cancer and the apparent suicide of Elsa Lemp Wright in 1920 under mysterious circumstances. The arrival of Prohibition led to the brewery’s closing, after which William Jr. also committed suicide. The tragedy didn’t stop there: William’s son Charles, an eccentric recluse given to extreme depression, shot himself in 1949… and left cryptic instructions that his body be buried in a secret location. To this day, no one knows why.
It’s no surprise that a home with such a grim legacy would become the focal point for alleged supernatural activity, and it wasn’t long before the mansion developed a reputation for being not just haunted, but extremely haunted. It was turned into a boarding house, but business was disrupted by tenants’ complaints of strange nocturnal noises. It was bought in 1975 and converted into a restaurant and inn, which is still in business today… but even during the renovation, strange phenomena plagued the workers, scaring some of them away for good.
Forget the pebble skulls of action men sized pygmies carefully created
as a story to help you forget all about this picture - how long will it
take you to spot the obvious here without your fevered brain finding a
face in every anthropomorphism ? Disinfo artists forget how intelligent
most people really are. Be honest if you went through this picture pixel
by pixel to find some sort of skull at a certain resolution and
magnification - you could not have missed the crash debris. Mind you its
probably debris from one of the many satellites sent there but which
crashed on deployment - certainly of an interesting and resilient metal.
No doubt NASA will be curious enough to test its composition with their
onboard spectroscope ... I would be curious to find out about that
metal - wouldn't you ?

Four blood moons
The teaching of the four blood moons has recently captivated the attention of the religious world. This teaching states that, when four consecutive blood moons fall on Jewish feast days, a major event affecting the Jewish people will occur in close proximity to that time.
This phenomenon of four consecutive blood moons coinciding with Jewish feast days has only occurred ten times since 1 AD and only three times since 1492 AD.
The three times since1492 major events affecting the Jewish people have occurred in close proximity to all three of these tetrads as follows:
Tetrad of 1493-1494 The Spanish Inquisition Took Place in 1492 Just Before the Tetrad of 1493-1494
Tetrad of 1949-1950 The Nation of Israel Reborn on May 14, 1948 Just Before the Tetrad of 1949-1950
Tetrad of 1967-1968 The City of Jerusalem was Reunited During Tetrad of 1967-1968
Now it’s about to happen for a fourth time.
What will occur in 2015?
The Four blood moons on Jewish feast, according to NASA, will occur on:
April 15, 2014—Passover October 8, 2014—Feast of Tabernacles April 4, 2015—Passover September 28, 2015—Feast of Tabernacles
Some prophecy teachers are declaring boldly that this tetrad just ahead signals that something is getting ready to happen, which will change the world forever.
What does the main man say?
Nostradamus and his prophecies for 2015
Sudden Discoveries in the science of telepathy will make it possible for people to talk to animals. This will lead to an upsurge in vegetarianism because of a ban on eating meat. “The hog will become a brother to man.”
“The kings shall rob the forests, the sky will open, the fields shall be burned by heat,” Nostradamus writes. This is a warning that the destruction of the rain forests will lead to a hole in the ozone layer, exposing Earth to harmful ultraviolet radiation.
Advances in medicine will extend the average human life span to almost 200 years. An 80-year-old will look just like a 50-year-old, Nostradamus claims.
Their fortunes gone in 2015, “the rich shall die many times over,” Nostradamus says.
Possible alien life, has been found on the red planet, by the mars Curiosity Rover.
Mysterious spikes of methane, that cannot easily be explained by geology or other theories, have been found by an instrument on the curiosity rover.
Scientists cannot be sure what is causing the spikes, but it is possible, that it could be very small bacteria-like living organisms. More Detailed Info Here:http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?feature=4413
This is an ancient structure on the moon. Not often we see something that is this high detail and seen on several moon photos from different perspectives. I sure hope the alien tech in these structures doesn't get in the wrong hands. The eyes of the world are watching and may take the initiative to explore such important lunar sites.

A mysterious site spans the landscape of Pisco Valley, Peru. On the same plateau where the famous Nazca Lines are found, thousands of holes have been carved into rock, creating a band that stretches further than a mile.
It is unknown who carved these holes, or why they were created, but it is clear that this vast creation must have been a painstaking job, requiring many hours of manpower.
The band of holes in Pisco Valley, Peru literally contains thousands of holes. Described as “man-sized,” these holes are approximately a meter wide, and one to two meters deep.
Some of the holes are quite shallow, giving the appearance that they had not yet been completed.
They were carved into a band, approximately 8-10 holes wide, and span a mile across a rugged mountain terrain. The number of holes is estimated to be around 6,900. Some of the holes are lined up with precision, while others appear more staggered.
It is estimated that it took decades to chip the stone away to reveal the band of holes, but it is unknown why this task was undertaken. Today’s inhabitants of the area do not know how the holes were created, why they were created, or who created them. There have not been any artifacts uncovered to reveal any further information about the holes. Some believe that because the holes are “man-sized,” that they may be some sort of vertical grave, intended for burying the dead. However, this has not been substantiated by the recovery of any bones, artifacts, or other human remains to indicate a burial site.
Some archaeologists have theorized that the holes were dug to store grain, and other essentials. Considering the quantity of holes, and the depth of each hole, it is likely that any civilization would have been able to store a great volume of grain.
However, this theory has been criticized. Storage containers for grain could have been built with much more ease than the efforts required to carve the holes into the rock.
For that reason, it is unlikely that any inhabitant would take on the arduous task of carving the holes if there were a better way to accomplish their storage goals.

While it is unknown who created the holes, they are clearly a man-made construction. A few miles to the east of the band of holes, satellite imagery reveals what appear to be the remnants of an ancient civilization.
Although the area has not been identified as the location of a particular civilization, it closely resembles the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu. The mystery of who created the holes, and for what purpose, may be solved by further exploring what may be the remnants of a nearby ancient settlement.
Few other clues about the holes have been uncovered. The band of holes covers a mile of rocky mountain terrain, with a well-defined beginning and ending point. The ending point has brought forth some speculation due to its odd appearance. The band abruptly comes to an end near an area of land that has an unnaturally darkened color.
Some have said that the darkened area appears to resemble an area that has been destroyed by an explosion. There have been alternative theories that the holes were created by extraterrestrial beings – perhaps ancient aliens who visited Earth, and left behind markings to help show where they had been.
Clearly, an image as striking as the band of holes in Pisco Valley, Peru is bound to bring forth many questions as to who created the holes, and why.
We can be certain that such a labor-intensive creation must have held some sort of purpose for those creating it, although that purpose has left behind no indication of what it may have been.
Not a single hair or tooth or artifact has been found to date to shed light upon this mysterious band, leaving it to be labeled as one of the unsolved mysteries of the world.
J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904 – 1967) was an American theoretical physicist, best known for his role as the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, the World War II effort to develop the first nuclear weapons, at the secret Los Alamos laboratory in New Mexico. He is often remembered as “the father of the atomic bomb”.
After witnessing the first successful nuclear explosion at the Trinity test site in Los Alamos New Mexico (which took place on 16 July, 1945) Oppenheimer remarked later that it brought to his mind words from the Bhagavad Gita: “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds” (chapter 11, verse 32).
Although Oppenheimer never converted to Hinduism nor did he ever refer to himself as a Hindu, Hindu philosophy did influence him greatly. He never prayed to Hindu deities nor went to a Mandir (Hindu temple).
He was never a Hindu in a devotional sense, but he did take up Sanskrit lessons so he could better understand the Gita in its native tongue. Oppenheimer, raised as a Jew, was deeply affected by Vedic philosophy. His brother said that Oppenheimer found the Bhagavad Gita “very easy and quite marvelous… and was really taken by the charm and the general wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita”. Oppenheimer also claimed that “access to the Vedas is the greatest privilege this century may claim over all previous centuries”.
Remarkably he even once hinted at the possibility of weapons on par of the nuclear ones who was working on in previous eras, particularly those of the Ramayana and Mahabharata.
While he was giving a lecture at Rochester University, during the question and answer period a student asked a question to which Oppenheimer gave a strangely qualified answer:
Student: "Was the bomb exploded at Alamogordo during the Manhattan Project the first one to be detonated?"
Dr. Oppenheimer: “Well — yes. In modern times, of course."
Some people suggest that Oppenheimer was referring to the brahmastra weapon mentioned in the Mahabharata.
The appreciation didn’t stop there. So much so he always gave the book (Bhagavad Gita) as a present to his friends and kept a copy on the shelf closest to his desk.
At Franklin Roosevelt’s funeral he read a passage from the Gita chapter 17 verse 3 “Man is a creature whose substance is faith, what his faith is, he is”. In 1963, the Christian Magazine asked him to list his 10 most influential books, he chose the Bhagavad Gita as one of them.
However a question remains on how someone who said the devastation the bomb caused Japan represented the “inhumanity and evil of modern war” and believer in the Bhagavad-Gita (after all Gandhi also cited the Bhagavad Gita as instrumental in his peaceful non violent approach to life) managed to reconcile himself with the task of creating such a potentially world destroying instrument such as the atomic bomb and yet at the end of it and still believe it was the correct thing to do.
He admitted himself that he had blood on his hands and the people behind it had “known sin”. But he still was adamant that he had done the right thing.
He believed that the bomb would save more lives by stopping the carnage that was World War II in that the bomb would frighten other would be aggressors thereby, in theory, preventing many future conflicts. "And even if thou were the greatest of sinners, with the help of the bark of wisdom thou shalt cross the sea of evil." (Gita 4:36)
Consider these verses from the ancient Mahabharata: "a single projectile charged with all the power of the Universe. An incandescent column of smoke and flame As bright as the thousand suns Rose in all its splendour…
"a perpendicular explosion with its billowing smoke clouds… the cloud of smoke rising after its first explosion formed into expanding round circles like the opening of giant parasols…
"it was an unknown weapon, an iron thunderbolt, a gigantic messenger of death, which reduced to ashes The entire race of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas. …The corpses were so burned as to be unrecognizable.
“The hair and nails fell out; Pottery broke without apparent cause, And the birds turned white. After a few hours All foodstuffs were infected… to escape from this fire, the soldiers threw themselves in streams to wash themselves and their equipment."
“Dense arrows of flame, like a great shower, issued forth, encompassing the enemy… A thick gloom swiftly settled upon the hosts. All points of the compass were lost in darkness. Fierce wind began to blow upward, showering dust and gravel. “Birds croaked madly… the very elements seemed disturbed. The earth shook, scorched by the terrible violent heat of this weapon. Elephants burst into flame and ran to and fro in a frenzy… over a vast area, other animals crumpled to the ground and died. From all points of the compass the arrows of flame rained continuously and fiercely." - The Mahabharata
In 1996 in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, Italian mineralogist Vincenzo de Michele spotted an unusual yellow-green gem in the middle of one of Tutankhamun's necklaces.
The jewel was tested and found to be glass, but intriguingly it is older than the earliest Egyptian civilization. Geologists traced its origins to unexplained chunks of glass found scattered in the sand in a remote region of the Sahara Desert.
But the glass is itself a scientific enigma. How did it get to be there and who or what made it?
An Austrian astrochemist Christian Koeberl had established that the glass had been formed at a temperature so hot that there could be only one known cause: a meteorite impacting with Earth. And yet there were no signs of a suitable impact crater, even in satellite images.
Another explanation is that the desert glass has a terrestrial explanation - one that includes atomic war or high-tech weapon capable of melting sand.
The first atomic bomb detonation by the United States in New Mexico at the Trinity test site in 1945 created so much heat that it formed a crater of radioactive glass in the desert about 10 feet deep and over 1,000 feet in width.
This is the same type of glass that is found in India, Egypt, and many other locations.
There are Biblical references to nuclear warfare, such as the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah: “…(Abraham) looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah…and he beheld and saw a smoke rising from the earth, as the smoke of a furnace.” (Gen 18:27).
- “…and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground; and the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt.” – Exodus 9:23
