“Some physicists say that the future is already written in today,
but I think that they are not taking quantum uncertainty seriously.
Quantum uncertainty says the future is not determined until it's happened.”
- George F. R. Ellis, Ph.D. Prof. Emeritus, Mathematics Dept.,
Univ. of Cape Town, South Africa
June 27, 2015 Cape Town, South Africa - A scientist who studied and expanded his mind about the universe at Cambridge University in England and had long dialogues with the young physicist Stephen Hawking about time and space is George F. R. Ellis, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus now in the Mathematics Department at the University of Cape Town in South Africa.
Like Prof. Martin Rees, Prof. Ellis also received a Templeton Prize honoring his profound insights into the cosmos that have led now to his rejecting the theory that evolved in Albert Einstein mind that space and time are entangled in such a way that time is an illusion.

“We should be very careful about artificial intelligence. If I had to guess
at what our biggest existential threat is to humanity, it's probably that.”
- Elon Musk, Head of Tesla and SpaceX, supported by
Microsoft's Bill Gates and U. K. Astrophysicist Stephen Hawking
“I think it is quite likely that within a few centuries the overriding
intelligence (beyond humans) will be machines because ... they are not
organic and most exploration will be by machines and not humans.
...So if we find aliens in space, they will be machines.”
- Martin Rees, Ph.D., Astronomer Royal and Emeritus Professor of
Cosmology and Astrophysics, University of Cambridge, England
June 26, 2015 Cambridge, England - On June 1, 2011, Martin J. Rees, Ph.D., Astronomer Royal and Emeritus Professor of Cosmology and Astrophysics from the University of Cambridge, was in London's Buckingham Palace before Prince Phillip. He was there to receive the prestigious 2011 Templeton Prize for his “profound insights on the cosmos that have provoked vital questions that speak to humanity's highest hopes and worst fears.” The Templeton Prize began in 1973 when it honored Mother Teresa before she received the Nobel Peace Prize. Others receiving the honor have been the Dalai Lama and mathematician George Ellis from South Africa, who thinks Einstein was wrong that time is an “illusion” and describes his own theory in the following Earthfiles report.

“The German Press recently investigated a report by a German
tourist (1990s?) that this body might be from an alien planet.”
- Placard description about 12-inch-long "alien body" displayed
in Million Dollar Museum, White's City, NM, 1990s-2008
Above is what appears to be another “Alien Body?” displayed with placard and ruler in White's City, NM, Million Dollar Museum from 1990s until the 2008 museum closure. But this 12-inches-long body is not the one that appears in the slides presented at the beWITNESS Cinco de Mayo event in Mexico City. See Websites below.
“I am offering $5,000 for any historic photo that shows the same Kodachrome slide body in a museum mummy display. There is not any real evidence of that. And I'm offering $10,000 to anyone that gives information to find the Body. ”

“He said the strange metal wasn’t from here because nothing
we have on this planet could do that. I think he came to the conclusion
that the piece of material came out of Roswell and they were still trying
to figure out what its content was, what it was made of.”

Lockheed Martin Sunnyvale, 1970s
Front page of the Roswell Daily Record, July 8, 1947, printed the day that Roswell Army Air Field 509th Bomb Group Commander Colonel William Blanchard issued a press release about a crashed “flying disk” retrieved by the RAAF.
May 1, 2015 Squaw Valley, California - On the morning of July 3, 1947, Corona, New Mexico, ranch manager William “Mac” Brazel discovered strange pieces of thin, silverish metal where something odd had crashed down in one of his sheep pastures 75 miles northwest of Roswell. The next day on July 4th, Mac Brazel made a trip to see Chaves County Sheriff George Wilcox to tell him about the strange crash debris he had found. Sheriff Wilcox notified Roswell Army Air Field, the home of the 509th Bomb Group commanded by Colonel William Blanchard. On the morning of Tuesday, July 8, 1947, Col. Blanchard issued a press release that said a crashed “flying disk” had been recovered. That startling news was transmitted that same day over the wire services to over thirty U. S. afternoon newspapers.

“I read the Condign report and in my FOIA to the MoD, I asked specific
questions about Condign that said we were exposed to this
(non-ionising radiation) phenomena in Rendlesham Forest.”
- USAF Tech Sgt. (Ret.) John Burroughs
“These documents could be legitimately called Britain's X-Files
and almost certainly contain further documents on the Rendlesham
Forest incident. Given the US government recently settled an injury claim
(to John Burroughs) on the basis of a UK government admission that
the Rendlesham witnesses were probably irradiated, it's possible this has
caused a high-level diplomatic row, and that's what's causing the delay.”
- Nick Pope, formerly on MoD UFO Desk
March 31, 2015, U. K. Mirror. See Websites below.
April 1, 2015 Update Albuquerque, New Mexico - Of original October 30, 2014 MoD admission to retired USAF Tech Sgt. John Burroughs that the MoD is withholding 18 classified UAP/UFO-related files — On March 2 and 16, 2015, Lord Black of Brentwood in the U. K. House of Lords, asked “Her Majesty's Government” when 18 MoD classified files about UFOs would be made public by the National Archives, whether they will “be released in a single batch or in multiple batches,” and “why the timescale for the transfer of the 18 unidentified flying object files from the Ministry of Defence to the National Archives has been delayed from the end of 2014, as previously announced, to late 2015 or early 2016?”

— “Those two bright spots are very intriguing. DAWN will resume
taking pictures in the early part of May 2015 ... three times sharper
than the ones we have so far.”
- Marc D. Rayman, Ph.D., Dawn Mission Director
and Chief Engineer, NASA/JPL, Pasadena, California
— “If we discover something like cryovolcanism on Ceres, that would be spectacular because it would be an indicator that there are subsurface reservoirs of water ... and that could make Ceres very astrobiologically important.”
- Mark Sykes, Ph.D., Director, Planetary Science Institute
and NASA Dawn Ceres Mission Scientist
Ceres is near the rocky asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, but round and so is called a dwarf planet. It is small, only 590 miles in diameter, with a surface temperature of minus-105 degrees C. (minus-157 degrees F.). Yet, it's estimated to be 20% water ice and some scientists think that the bright spots could be fresh ice somehow ejected from below the surface. Feb. 19, 2015 image by NASA/JPL.Ceres is 514 million miles (2.77 astronomical units) from the sun around which it revolves every 4.61 Earth years in a nearly circular orbit. A day on Ceres is 9.1 hours. Ceres was the first object in the asteroid belt to be discovered in 1801 by Giuseppe Piazzi, who thought it was a new planet because it was round. Ceres is not like the rocky asteroids and in 2006, the Astronomical Union decided to classify Ceres as a dwarf planet, small and round.
March 27, 2015 Pasadena, California - On February 19, 2015, the NASA/JPL Dawn spacecraft was 28 thousand miles from our solar system's dwarf planet Ceres near the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Ceres is in the small planet category because it is so round. Asteroids are not round. They are jagged rocks. Also, Ceres is only 590 miles in diameter made of 20% water ice with a surface temperature of minus-105 degrees Centigrade. That's a very cold minus-157 degrees Fahrenheit. One of Ceres's many mysteries is what dense ingredients came together at the beginning of this solar system that would have enough mass to form such a small, round ball that might even have a thin atmosphere?

— “We think that the temperature at least in some part of the ocean
must be higher than 190 degrees Fahrenheit. If you could swim a little bit
further from the really hot part, then it could be comfy.”
- Sean Hsu, Ph.D., Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics, Univ. of Colorado
— “[For such heat] the most exciting possibility is that there's ongoing chemical reactions between the rock inside Enceladus and the water.”
- Bill McKinnon, Ph.D., Planetary Scientist, Washington Univ.-St. Louis
March 27, 2015 Boulder, Colorado - In 2014, NASA reported that gravity-measuring devices on its Cassini spacecraft showed there was an enormous body of liquid water directly below the south pole of Enceladus, one of Saturn's 31 moons and the sixth largest.
Measurements from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft suggest that Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, which has jets of water vapor and ice gushing from its south pole, also harbors a large interior ocean with hydrothermal activity beneath an ice shell, as this illustration depicts. (Courtesy NASA/JPL-Caltech)

“The dramatic changes in physical properties at the Earth's Core Mantle Boundary strongly suggest a major compositional change rather than a phase change. … In contrast to the outer core, the inner core is denser than pure iron, so it is thought to be iron-nickel without a light element. Thus it is chemically different from the outer core, as well as being solid rather than liquid.”

JustPGHNews.com, about three large, unexplained booms over Jefferson Hills, Pennsylvania, Sunday night, March 15, 2015, about fifteen miles southeast of Pittsburgh.Three years to the day earlier: March 15, 2012, TV headline by News4Jax.com, Jacksonville, Florida, about booms heard in 5 Georgia counties at the same time.
March 27, 2015 Southeastern United States - Earthfiles has been reporting unusual, unexplained loud booms, metallic and trumpet sounds in North America and other parts of the world since 2011. One of the puzzling facts is that very few places have had any seismic activity recorded by the U. S. Geological Survey. And yet, the thousands of people throughout North America, who have experienced the booms say that at least one side of their house shakes hard, rattling windows and floors and spooking dogs, cats and other animals. Adding to the puzzle is that some people think the booms are coming from below ground, while others think booms are coming from the sky above. Sometimes there have even been mysterious bright flashes of light with the booms on clear weather days or nights.

“If the government is beginning to see patterns that might suggest
this type of disruptive activity occurring in the Earth’s core and then other dynamics, which erupt from that, then they are going ... to establish solid scientific proof for acceptance that such phenomenon are going to occur and then the ramifications that could come from such phenomenon.”
- “James Smith,” U. S. corporation owner concerned about boom phenomenon
March 27, 2015 Southeastern United States - The Earth's magnetic field is thought to be generated by the Earth's inner and outer cores where the solid inner sphere of mostly iron and a little nickel spins rapidly inside the outer liquid iron core. Geophysicists report that quite incredibly the solid inner core spins faster than the whole Earth rotates.
The inner core, on average, rotates eastward. At the speeds it travels, it might, on average, complete a revolution every 750 to 1,440 years. However, these speeds appear unstable, which makes it uncertain just how long it actually takes to finish a turn on its axis. It remains unknown exactly why there are fluctuations in the inner core rotation speed, but speculation is that it is related to gravitational and magnetic forces.
The European Space Agency's Swarm Satellite measurements of the Earth's magnetic field between January and June 2014 showed a dramatic decline in the magnetic field over North and South America with a strengthening of the magnetic field over the southern Indian Ocean. If in 2015, the magnetic field continues to decline, it might be a signal that the North and South magnetic poles might actually flip at some point in this 21st Century.

Further on February 5, 2015, the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University published a report with data that shows seafloor volcano activity over the centuries also relates to the Earth's history of pole changes.See Websites below.
