Speculation, theory, UFOs and Aliens. Are we alone in this universe or is there life outside Earth?
Hollow warning from Byrd met with silence at the Pentagon
On Thursday last week two anniversaries relating to American polar explorer Richard Byrd occurred. Firstly it was the 64th anniversary of his death in Boston in 1957, aged 68, and secondly it was the 74th anniversary of the day he was debriefed at the Pentagon following his participation in Operation Highjump, when South American newspaper reports claimed he encountered incredible disc-shaped aircraft with swastika markings during the Antarctic expedition.

Alien From a Garden of Love
Can you keep a secret? I want to share with you some knowledge and a bit of wisdom. First something that will make you scoff and say that what you have just heard is crazy or a lie. Would you believe that I am not from Earth? I arrived here from another planet that is light years away from this world. I am telling you the truth. This Shaman is a nonhuman. My task is to heal spiritually wounded alien warriors. My world is located on the other side of the galaxy from yours.

Stuart came home to his quarters on the Quantid and sank into a soft chair. Erich brought in a plate of a favorite dish called spice-and-noodle, ordered from the dining hall earlier and warmed up for Stuart in their quarters.

Astro Cipher
"Shut up and just drive! If I were you, I'd be a little less concerned with the gun in my hand and more worried about who it is I'm running from, hunny. Or should I say what?" Her eyes went wide with tears, and she hit the gas pedal as hard as she could. Tires spinning, she felt the car pulling hard with the torque. He kept checking the rearview like he was expecting something to be behind them. She knew that there wasn't because they were out in the middle of the Mojave Desert in the middle of the night in the heat of the summer. Nothing lived long enough in the day here to be this far from civilization and still have it's life when night fell. The only thing she wondered really was how the heck he was this far out without a vehicle in sight and alive. What she knew from traveling through this region her entire life of thirty-two years, gave her enough insight as to know something was extremely awkward about that particular bit of information. The other interesting bit was clutched tightly between the thumb and all four fingers of her recently acquired passengers right hand with remnants of what appeared to be blood on the cover. A little black notebook. It was bound by a heavy thick leather which did not appear to be from a cow or any other animal she could recall. As far as the blood, it was obviously fresh, but to say it was his or someone else's was not something she was able to do. The first thing she noticed when he jumped in front of her car was the blood. She had thought she hit him and is still not sure that she didn't. When she had last looked at the clock on the radio, it was reading 11:34 p.m. His impact on the car jarred her awake and the time had read 1:11 a.m. She panicked because he'd come out of nowhere, and she didn't want to leave him for dead. Now, she wished that she had just kept going.

Flirting with the Zodiac
When I was a child, the Fifth Dimension told me it was the dawning of the “Age of Aquarius” and to “Let the Sun Shine.” My mother had me read her her horoscope from the newspaper every morning while she got ready for work. Even my grandmother read her daily horoscope.

The Capsule
The object drifted casually into the atmosphere just before dawn that morning and within seconds gravity had clutched it in its unyielding hands, pulling it violently to the ground. After thoroughly inspecting the nature of its composition, our greatest minds concluded, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that the object was indeed of alien origin. The world was stunned. Here was the answer to a question we had been pondering throughout the ages. A battered, bruised capsule, no larger in size than a small boulder, silently shouting a truth that was no longer deniable - we are not alone.

The Little Book of Adventures
Zoe loved to wake up in the third top bunk of her grandparents Earth village. One of the most noticeable things about the place was all the different smells, like Grandpa's left over cooking of fresh green tree fish, to Grandma's books giving off a sweet mildew smell.

Chasing Wind
A brisk wind pelted my face with tiny granules as I stood staring down at my empty street. A thick blanket of fresh snow covered a thin layer of ice, warding travelers off the roads. The ice was so bad that cars were parked off their steep driveways and stacked neatly along the street.

Hereditary
Early morning light filtered through the gauzy curtains and I squeezed my eyes shut even tighter. I was having such a good dream. There had been aliens and a fantastical dimension that I’d somehow ended up in, the undulating scenery around me full of bright colors, colors I didn’t even know existed. I’d had these same kind of dreams as a child, but the more time I spent awake, the more the dream would slip away until it had all but disappeared. Sure enough, as sleep ebbed away and my mind started whirring once more, remembering it felt difficult, like trying to hold on to something slippery and wriggling and wet.
