U.S. officials have not identified the objects and continue to classify several incidents as unresolved. WASHINGTON DC -For decades, UFO sightings were easy for skeptics to dismiss. A blurry photo. A shaky video. A witness who
WASHINGTON DC — The Pentagon’s latest release of classified files involving Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena — better known to most Americans as UFOs — is reopening one of the most controversial mysteries in modern history. The newly released material includes military reports, pilot encounters, intelligence assessments and historical government records tied to unexplained aerial sightings dating
WASHINGTON DC - Speculation is again circulating that Donald Trump may eventually release details about classified briefings he received on unidentified flying objects — now officially labeled Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs) — a topic the U.S. government no longer dismisses, but still cannot fully explain. There is no confirmed speech, no official announcement, and no
BEIJING - Every few years, a gold discovery emerges with numbers so large they demand attention — even from an industry trained to be skeptical. China’s latest announcement fits that pattern. Geologists drilling beneath the Wangu gold field say they may have identified more than 1,000 metric tons of gold buried deep underground, potentially extending
NORWAY - A speculative proposal making the rounds again in global infrastructure circles imagines a 3,400-mile tunnel beneath the Atlantic Ocean, capable of moving passengers between New York and London in under an hour. Highlighted recently by Ecoportal, the concept carries a staggering $20 trillion price tag and relies on a combination of vacuum-tube travel
ANN ARBOR - An interstellar object passing briefly through the solar system has sparked renewed debate at the intersection of science, national security, and public trust—less because of what astronomers have found, and more because of what U.S. intelligence officials will not say. The object, known as 3I/ATLAS, is only the third confirmed visitor ever
ANN ARBOR—The United States invented the semiconductor industry, built the first transistors, and powered the digital age—then gradually outsourced large-scale chip manufacturing overseas. Today, amid geopolitical risk, supply-chain shocks and surging demand from electric vehicles, AI systems and data centers, researchers say the path back does not run through copying yesterday’s chips. It runs through
PETRA, JORDAN — Few archaeological sites live simultaneously in scholarly journals and pop culture the way Petra does. Officially named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007, the ancient Nabataean capital is now making headlines again — this time for a real discovery that echoes its Hollywood mythology. Archaeologists have uncovered
ANN ARBOR - As governments, scientists, and defense agencies revisit unexplained aerial phenomena, one institution keeps getting pulled into the conversation: the Vatican. Recent tabloid coverage tying remarks by Vatican scientists to Pope Leo XIV has revived a familiar claim — that the Catholic Church may be quietly sitting on evidence of extraterrestrial visitation. While
ANN ARBOR - An interstellar comet passing through the inner solar system this month is drawing global attention — and reigniting a familiar debate over whether such objects could be more than natural space debris. The object, known as 3I/ATLAS, will make its closest approach to Earth around Dec. 21, passing safely at a distance
