Antimatter Hypothesis

“Antimatter Hypothesis: A Viral Thought Experiment” has been published in book form on the Internet today. Simply stated the Antimatter Hypothesis assumes parity between matter and antimatter in the universe. The implications are revolutionary. The book comes in two parts and takes some time to load with images and embedded video, so you need to use a high speed Internet connection. Click on the image at left to load Part 1, which deals with the Anti-Matter Matter Object (AMMO) phenomena. At the end of Part 1 is the link to Part 2, which deals with Antimatter Cosmology.

None of the principles survived this incident; therefore no first hand account is available. It was later confirmed that strange orange lights or “bright flying spheres” were sighted in the direction of the incident from fifty kilometers farther south. The expedition might have encountered ball lightning, which is uniquely consistent with many of the details of this case. In particular, one hypothesis for ball lightning is antimatter, which has been suggested by Professor Philip M. Papaelias of the National University of Athens, Greece. Matter annihilates antimatter in Earth’s atmosphere, so the source of antimatter is extraterrestrial and complete annihilation takes from minutes to hours depending upon the initial size.

Here is the Dyatlov Pass story told as an encounter with ball lightning, or an Anti-Matter Matter Object (AMMO). The AMMO was attracted by rising heat from the fire outside the group’s tent, which generated a small thermal relative to the surrounding environment. The ball of fire descended outside the front of the tent and caused the members to abandon their tent in a hurry. They might have thought the tent was on fire and cut their way out away from the entrance. None had time to put on both boots; most only wore socks that they slept in. The hikers ran downhill, and the AMMO descended down the fall line, which gave the hikers the impression that they were being pursued.

Matter antimatter annihilations produce gamma radiation. Those who looked directly at the AMMO got sunburned faces from the invisible gamma rays. Gamma radiation will break molecular bonds. An experiment is needed to test whether gamma radiation will selectively destroy pigment molecules in hair. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can bleach pigment out of plastic, so this might explain the gray hair found on the victims. Forensic evidence suggested that the victims might have been blinded, which AMMO can do in the form of actinic conjunctivitis. Radiation was detected on clothing in the form of beta particles. Free neutrons produce beta decay, and antimatter will annihilate matter atomic nuclei and liberate neutrons in the process, which is consistent with an AMMO hypothesis. Electrostatic and gamma radiation properties of AMMO impair reasoning and the mind resorts to confabulation.

Ball lightning levitates, so only tracks of the party were found by searchers afterward. After five hundred meters, snow covered the tracks of the hikers. The search party did not arrive on the scene for another twenty-four days. That night the hikers headed for trees. Four climbed a tall pine tree to get above the pursuing AMMO. The AMMO may have pursued them for a number of reasons. Lightning will strike people standing in a field, attracted electrostatically by electrons coming through the human body from ground. The other five remained under the tree and may have been overcome by the AMMO. These five had orange to brown tan complexions from gamma radiation sunburn. The AMMO caused at least two of them to lose consciousness, Krivonischenko and Doroshenko, who may have gotten too close to the AMMO for the warmth it produced.

All the while annihilations reduced the size of the AMMO. Ball lightning might be an antimatter comet and therefore mostly ice. When ice melts it produces water and water vapor. Water vapor might give ball lightning its fiery properties, by vaporizing and mixing with matter air, annihilate and produce visual spectrum light through Compton scattering.

Some of the four in the tree climbed onto a branch five meters above the ground. Their weight, plus snow on the branch, caused the branch to break and all four tumbled down. Other branches below them broke and were later found scattered over the ground. Some sustained cracked skulls and ribs in the fall, but the injuries were not fatal. Those who fell out of the tree were injured, including Slobodin on the ground with a cracked skull. Heat from the AMMO started a smoldering fire with the branches that fell on or near it.

Ludmila Dubinina fell toward the AMMO and tried to scream. To scream we inhale. Dubinina inhaled and got a mouth full of antimatter water and water vapor. It annihilated her tongue and the lining of her mouth and throat (Digital Bits Skeptic, igor, 2008 March 11). The resulting gamma radiation seared her tissues, so she survived and did not bleed to death. She may have lost consciousness.

The conscious survivors prepared to leave and get medical attention. They removed clothing from the unconscious, Krivonischenko and Doroshenko. Dubinina’s coat and hat were found on Zolotarev. Dubinina revived, since she was wearing Valley Forge style boots in the form of Krivonishenko’s wool pants, when her body was recovered. The conscious set off wearing the outer clothing of the unconscious, which they had removed. Krivonishenko and Doroshenko never revived and died of hypothermia where they lay at the base of the tree.

Dyatlov, Kolmogorova, and Slobodin tried to make their way back to the tent but died of hypothermia on the way. The other four took another route and fell into a ravine, where a snow slide covered them with four meters of snow. They never dug their way out and died. None of the victims showed any signs of external injuries, and no trace of an explosion was ever found. Other explanations abound, but only AMMO is capable of explaining the weird details in such a compelling fashion.

Lonnie Zamora

Sources:
Wikipedia
UFO Casebook
NICAP
A Socorro, New Mexico police officer suspended a high speed car chase upon hearing a loud roar and seeing flames near where a dynamite shack was located. He came upon what appears to be two astronauts landing an aluminum, oblate spheroid shaped precursor of the lunar lander. The location is just west of the White Sands Missile Range, precisely where a vehicle of this type would be tested, possibly dropped from an airborne platform like a B-52.

The flames were blue to invisible, which is consistent with hydrogen as fuel. Officer Zamora drew a picture of a large insignia he saw on the side of the craft, which resembles the logo of AstroPower, a subsidiary of Douglas Aircraft Company at the time. Officer Zamora saw two short people in what he described as white coveralls, which is consistent with the Apollo astronaut space suits. The astronauts reboarded their craft, lifted off, and sped away in the direction of Sixmile Canyon Mountain. This is in the opposite direction from White Sands Missile Range. So the test landing could have been blown off course to the west, since Officer Zamora said that the wind was blowing hard.

This incident occurred in 1964, when Officer Zamora could not identify the sound of a rocket engine, although he knew what a jet engine sounded like. Government officials gave him the run around, and never came clean. The incident is still listed as unidentified. Project Blue Book had the habit of never offering information, but would only answer direct questions. It is high time a FOIA request asked the right question regarding this incident. Was NASA using this vehicle to train astronauts for the lunar landing? No natural phenomenon advertises a company logo, at least not yet.

A billion is 109, and 1036 = 1094 or a billion times a billion times a billion times a billion.

9/11 Hutchison Effect Review

To support her conclusion that Directed Energy Weaponry (DEW) brought down the twin towers, Dr. Judy Wood draws parallels between the debris from the twin towers' aftermath and experimental results of the Hutchison Effect. I do not dispute those similarities, however correlation does not imply causation. Because John Hutchison uses energy beams in his experimental apparatus does not conclusively implicate the deployment of DEW in the twin towers disaster. A positive correlation exists between ice cream consumption and drownings. Both peak in the summer. However, no causal relationship exists between the two.

I present an alternate source as the probable cause for the observed effects in an earlier blog entry: 9/11 Dr. Judy Wood Review. In this blog entry I go deeper into the subject, down to the molecular level, including a graphical representation of the science behind molecular dissociation, and the chemical reactions of positive metal ions and water to produce cold fire and rust through oxidation.

Here is a video of a radio interview including Dr. Judy Wood and Andrew Johnson presenting their findings.

9/11 - WTC Destruction and the Hutchison Effect - Part 1


9/11 - WTC Destruction and the Hutchison Effect - Part 2

Hidden Defects
The trouble with mainstream science and mainstream scientists is that only mainstream theories are considered when trying to determine the cause of anomalous evidence. "When your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail." For sure, Dr. Judy Wood examined a larger toolbox than orthodox scientists will ever admit to, and for that she deserved a great deal of credit for her courage. However, only looking inside a toolbox overlooks other options where thinking outside the box is indicated.

Paradigm shifts in science routinely come from thinking outside the box. Galileo, Newton, Darwin, and Einstein invented some of the tools employed by mainstream scientists today, but they thought outside the box to create them, which means that a thought experiment is in order.
Molecular Dissociation
Here is a pseudo-molecular level representation of a gas. The number of protons and electrons is equal for each molecule. The reason that air molecules with a neutral electric charge do not stick together is because electrons surround the periphery and like electrostatic charge repels like. The electron outer shell of each molecule causes the individual molecules to repel each other.

_‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡_

_‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡__‡‡_

Here is the same pseudo-molecular representation of a solid, with the same number of molecules, i.e. sixteen. Electrons are shared to create molecular bonds. Notice the solid is more compact than a gas, which translates into the greater density of solids compared to gases.

_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_
_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_

Now suppose the molecular bonds of the above solid are suddenly ripped asunder. The result is represented below, a positive ion particulate cloud. All the molecules are positive ions, since the positive charge of four outnumbers the negative charge of electrons by two, three, or four in the representation below. All these molecules repel each other because they are positive ions.

¯‡‡¯_‡‡¯_‡‡_¯‡‡¯_‡‡¯‡‡¯_‡‡¯_‡‡¯

_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_¯‡‡_‡‡_‡‡_

A positive ion particulate cloud is consistent with the effects Dr. Judy Wood cataloged that resemble results of the Hutchison Effect. Transmutation of the atomic elements by changing the atomic nucleus is not necessary, therefore fusion which increases atomic number and fission which reduces atomic number are outside the range of consideration here. In the video, Andrew Johnson mentions "cold fusion" which taken literally is not relevant.
Probable Cause
It is the concentration in time and space of the positive ions that triggered and sustained this process, which began as pulverized concrete from the floors of the World Trade Center that generated the dust cloud. A Directed Energy Weapon is not the only possible source for this outcome. In fact, a Directed Energy Weapon is not the probable cause either.

On her website Dr. Wood offers this quote, "When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." A much simpler probable cause is a natural runaway chain reaction triggered by the pancaking of the concrete floors within the twin towers that was concentrated in time and space. The destruction of the twin towers was a rare event, requiring a unique perspective and a compelling argument.
Positive Ion Particulate Cloud
The positive ion particulate cloud hypothesis is the counter-argument to the Directed Energy Weapon scenario. As upper floors slammed into floors below, the concrete pulverized. With primary support columns displaced to the exterior of the World Trade Center skyscrapers the floors inside the twin towers cascaded down like a piston inside a cylinder. The air inside compressed and blew out the windows like an accordion or bellows, exhausting air, broken concrete, dust, paper, etcetera. The potential energy of the height of the floors was converted into kinetic energy as the floors dropped slamming into floors below. Upon contact, the kinetic energy converted into fragmenting the concrete floors and severing molecular bonds along these breaks.

The sheer scale and concentration of the destruction in time and space was a rare event. The concrete ejected from the tower appeared to disintegrate in mid air. Immersed in the positive ion cloud, the surface electrons were shanghaied from concrete and other solid matter, breaking molecular bonds in the process, and creating more positive ions. The positive ions repelled each other expanding the dust cloud. The most susceptible atoms to have electrons shanghaied are metals, and hydrogen. Concrete contains calcium, which is a metal. Glass contains trace metallic elements. Positive ion dust particles shanghaied electrons from vulnerable solids it contacted. What began with pulverized concrete grew into a runaway chain reaction. No externally generated electromagnetic energy was necessary to start or sustain it.

As the positive ion cloud shanghaied electrons, solid material underwent molecular dissociation, which fed the positive ion cloud and the total deficit of electrons increased exponentially from the conversion of solid matter to positively charged dust particles. The destruction of the World Trade Center exhibited a previously unidentified exponential process like an explosion in an entirely different dimension. John Hutchison's experiments are child's play in comparison.
Oxidation or Cold Fire
Metal ions oxidized in a process that produced cold fire, when reacting with molecules containing oxygen with weak molecular bonds, i.e. water or water vapor: H2O. Trying to extinguish an oxidizing metal fire with water is impossible. That's why some metals rust when they get wet. Here are a couple of chemical reaction equations that produce rust from positive ions of iron and water that also release hydrogen atoms stripped of electrons, i.e. protons.

Fe2+ + 2 H2O ⇌ Fe(OH)2 + 2 H+
Fe3+ + 3 H2O ⇌ Fe(OH)3 + 3 H+
Glass
Automobile windshields were missing, not smashed. Windshield glass is laminated. A sheet of plastic is sandwiched between layers of glass. This prevents a passenger from getting decapitated in a collision. Of all the images of cars, windshields are missing, not smashed.

Glass contains silica, SiO2, which holds it's electrons tight against being shanghaied. People could still breathe, so atmospheric oxygen, O2, also held it's own, whereas metals did not. Metal atoms contained in glass include sodium, calcium, magnesium, and aluminum. Skyscraper windows also contain reflective coatings which contain metal atoms. Metal atoms easily succumb to having their valence electrons shanghaied. Metals are good conductors of electricity, which is the flow of electron across the surface.
Flipped Cars
Car engine blocks were gone, disintegrated. The process of converting solid iron or aluminum into ionic dust particles also changes the volume of the material. The engine block dust particles needed to go someplace, and the engine compartment is only open on the bottom. Rapid expansion and vaporization of the material in the engine compartment would generate a downward thrust at the front end of the car. An equal and opposite force would apply in the upward direction on the engine compartment hood. The front end of the car would lift off the ground quickly, while the rear tires remained on the ground. This would cause the cars to somersault, pivot on their rear bumper, and land upside down. This is not the result a beamed energy weapon could produce. It was the consequence of the ionic dust as it shanghaied electrons from the all too willing metal making up engine blocks.
Dirt
Those responsible for clean up duty hauled in truckloads of dirt, spread the dirt around, picked it back up, and hauled it out again. Dr. Wood indicated that this is the method used to clean up toxic spills. This is reminiscent of how a doctor will treat the symptoms of a disease when no cure is known nor definitive diagnosis is made.
Hutchison Effect
Although the Hutchison Effect produces similar results, it requires the use of external apparatus. In the case of the World Trade Center this equipment was unnecessary.
Occam's Razor
According to Occam's Razor the simplest explanation should prevail. Directed Energy Weapons is not the simplest explanation for the destruction of the World Trade Center. The positive ion particulate cloud hypothesis makes the fewest possible assumptions to arrive at a consistent and comprehensive explanation for the 9/11 disaster. The necessary and sufficient conditions presented also resolve issues with the mainstream account.

An Inconvenient Truth: Climate Change

Should nature prove otherwise, we must avoid cries about global warming echoing lies about WMDs, and bypass the trap of possible wrongful association from the outset. Better to set the goal of a sustainable energy future upon the defensible foundation of a preference for replacing non-renewable resources with green renewable resources, than upon an unprovable theory of man made causes of global warming. Never confuse correlations with causes, and never confuse consensus with truth. Global temperatures may fluctuate unpredictably, but oil reserves will run out.

An Inconvenient Truth: UFOs

"If a million people believe a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing." - Anatole France.

Consensus holds no monopoly on the truth. It is human nature to seek validation of our beliefs and prejudices over accepting the truth. Dozens of ideas submitted to President Obama's Citizen's Briefing Book advocate UFO disclosure, and many more comments proclaim that we can handle the truth. If it is not what we expect to hear, can we really handle the truth? Many of the ideas and comments already anticipate disclosure of the existence of extraterrestrials, but what if the truth about UFOs is far more exotic, but mundane? Let's put our ability to handle the truth to the test.

"A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it." – Max Planck

Consistency between theory and facts is a far better predictor of truth than consensus. A consistent and comprehensive scientific explanation does exist of a natural, albeit rare, cause for genuine UFO phenomenon, and I'll bet you can't handle it. First of all, you can't handle it because the idea is unfamiliar. Familiarity breeds understanding, whereas ignorance is self perpetuating. The natural explanation for UFOs is: antimatter meteors. If you haven't stopped reading you are already in the minority. My bet is secure. So for the rest of you, let me explain how antimatter meteors are consistent with most if not all observed UFO phenomena, and then I'll explain why each UFO vested interest won't accept it as the truth.
Antimatter Concepts
Matter is composed of protons, electrons, and neutrons. Antimatter is composed of the antiparticles of matter: antiprotons, positrons, and antineutrons. Particle-antiparticle pairs exhibit equal and opposite properties of electric charge and magnetic moment, but identical mass. Mass and energy are equivalent from Einstein's famous equation, E = mc2, where energy equals mass times the speed of light squared. A particle-antiparticle pair annihilate each other and produce two gamma rays, high energy photons above the range of x-rays. In the other direction, pair production is the transformation of energy into a particle-antiparticle pair.
No Debris Remains at Crash Sites
When antimatter meteors enter Earth's atmosphere, electrons annihilate positrons, protons annihilate antiprotons, and free antineutrons decay into positrons and antiprotons, which get annihilated as stated above. The end result is that the mass of antimatter meteors is completely transformed into energy and leaves behind no physical trace to retrieve as evidence.
Reflective Metallic Surface
Electrons are attracted by the electrostatic force to surface positrons of antimatter meteors, but electrons repel each other by the same force. In Earth's vicinity, electrons form a reflective bubble around antimatter. Valence electrons give metal the look of a mirrored surface. Mirrored orbs fitting this description appear in NASA video taken during STS-37 and STS-51A shuttle missions. The electron bubble appears to pop and reform in the STS-51A video revealing this bubble like property.
Cloud Like Surface
Water molecules are electric dipoles. The negative end of water vapor dipoles is attracted to positrons, which are positive. When antimatter surface positrons are annihilated they leave behind antiprotons, the positive end of water vapor dipoles is attracted to antiprotons, which are negative. Water vapor therefore condenses around antimatter meteors that then appear cloud like in high humidity environments. In low humidity environments like Mexico City the metallic surface phenomena prevails.
Glowing Lights
When matter and antimatter annihilate each other the result is ionizing gamma radiation. Gamma rays are outside the visible spectrum, but with Compton scattering air molecules absorb and emit photons of specific wavelengths. The result is aurora like light effects in the vicinity of antimatter meteors glowing in the emission spectrum of air molecules, predominantly nitrogen and degenerate atoms due to annihilations down to hydrogen.
Energy Beams
When electrons are annihilated in the air surrounding antimatter meteors the residual positive ions become electron attractors. When electrons flow toward this positive electric potential a cascading electrostatic discharge happens in the form of lightning. Electrons flow through gas in florescent and neon tubes and stimulate the emission of photons, which is the same process in air around antimatter meteors due to electrostatic discharges. Electrostatic discharges will occur between ground and an antimatter meteor, or between a person standing on the ground and an antimatter meteor, or between an antimatter meteor and an airborne object.
Passengers Seen on Board
Any human observer looking at a spheroidal antimatter meteor surrounded by an electron bubble will see a distorted smaller image of themselves. Look at the back of a spoon bowl for comparison. The reflective quality of some UFOs has been described as a dull metallic gray finish, rather than shiny like a spoon. The shininess is a factor of the electron bubble density.
Windows Seen in Crafts
The reflective electron bubble will reflect anything in the surrounding environment. At night, people on the ground will see reflected lights around them. At night streetlights, car headlights and taillights, and light showing through building windows reflect in the electron bubble giving the impression of windows in an airborne craft. Regularly spaced streetlights give the impression of regularly spaced windows.
Disrupting Electronics
Because antimatter positrons annihilate electrons, an antimatter meteor near the Earth's surface will disturb electric ground and disrupt electric currents. When an aircraft is hit by lightning the electronics are interrupted. This is a similar effect. Ten ballistic missiles malfunctioned at Malmstrom Air Force Base in conjunction with the report of a "glowing red object" overhead, which is consistent with an antimatter meteor disrupting electric ground in a localized area.
Radar Reflections
Electromagnetic radiation does not distinguish between matter and antimatter. A metallic antimatter meteor will reflect radar microwaves. However, an electron bubble surrounding a non-metallic antimatter meteor will also reflect microwaves, but the electron bubble can pop and reform making radar reflections erratic. Over time a stationary antimatter meteor will dissolve by annihilations and disappear. See hovering and breakneck accelerations below, also observed on radar.
Hovering
Hovering is commonly observed in insects, hummingbirds, and helicopters. But also consider a bird or balloon riding hot air thermals. Particle-antiparticle pairs exhibit opposite values of electrostatic charge, positive and negative, and magnetic moment, north-south pole alignment. For symmetry to fully apply, and in agreement with UFO observations, matter and antimatter may also exhibit opposite values of gravitation, gravity and antigravity.

When a matter meteor enters Earth's gravitational pull, it accelerates and burns up due to air resistance and exhibits a debris tail. In NASA STS-80 space shuttle video a bright UFO enters frame and into Earth's atmosphere, decelerates, hovers and then adopts the rotation of the Earth above cloud level. A second UFO suddenly appears from nowhere in center frame and follows a parallel course. The distance between the object and space shuttle camera is greater than the distance between Seattle and Portland, a three hour freeway drive. No debris tail is observed.

Matter antimatter annihilations produce gamma radiation and explain the sudden appearance and continuous brightness via Compton scattering of a far away object, after the antimatter meteor enters Earth's atmosphere. Deceleration is explained by antigravity and air resistance. No debris tail is explained by annihilations rather that vaporizing disintegration that matter exhibits.

Matter gravitationally attracts matter. By symmetry, antimatter must gravitationally attract antimatter. The gravitational force between matter and antimatter must be one of three possibilities: attracting, repelling, or nullifying. Observational evidence indicates that UFOs somehow resist gravity. Opposite symmetrical electrostatic and magnetic properties are the rule in particle-antiparticle pair production. Opposite symmetrical gravitational forces are not outside the realm of possibility, and are consistent with the observed properties of UFOs.
Breakneck Accelerations
At the level of protons and electrons, the electrostatic force dominates the gravitational force by orders of magnitude in the range of ten to the thirty-sixth, or a billion times a billion times a billion times a billion. When sufficient antimatter positrons are annihilated by electrons, the remaining antimatter antiprotons are negatively charged. In the vicinity or a large negative electrostatic potential like the Earth or lightning, predominantly antiproton antimatter is electrostatically repelled far beyond the comparatively weak gravitational force of the Earth. Breakneck accelerations are often reported in the vertical direction away from the Earth. Jet Stream air currents, wind shear, and micro-bursts can propel antimatter to enormous speeds by just going with the air flow. Antimatter meteors are not immune to air resistance, but seek equilibrium within their surrounding medium like a balloon.
Right Angle Turns
Atmospheric air currents are layered. Hot air balloons navigate but vertical displacement out of and into these different air currents, which cause changes in direction. In addition, antimatter meteors exhibit antigravity properties, which we observe as frictionless motion like an air hockey puck floating on a cushion of air. Out-gassing or electrostatic forces can impart a transverse impetus to the direction of travel making right angle turns possible, which does not violate Newtonian laws of motion, since a transverse force is responsible. The intensity of gamma radiation produced by matter antimatter annihilations makes antimatter meteors appear larger and closer than they need to be to remain visible. Momentum is a function of mass. The momentum of a small mass antimatter meteor is easier to redirect than a larger mass.
Flying Saucer Shape
Some UFOs appear saucer shaped with a bulge in the center. Magnetic field lines around an antimatter ferrous asteroid take on the configuration of the Van Allen radiation belts around Earth. It is therefore possible that electrically charged particles trapped in the toroid shaped magnetic field lines appear to represent the surface of a saucer shaped craft. Alternatively, when antimatter meteors break apart antigravity binds the antimatter pieces together, while collectively opposing gravity. Therefore the antimatter pieces can take on a rings-of-Saturn configuration. Form an electron bubble around this internal structure and you get a flying saucer shape.
Formations
Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 broke up into a string of smaller comets and collided with Jupiter in 1994. An antimatter meteor can be composed of any chemistry found in matter. An antimatter meteor can break up into many formations: a string of beads, mutually attracting bodies like a solar system or ring held together by antigravity, or mutually repelling objects like a star burst pattern when the electrostatic charge of ions repel each other by sudden changes as ions are formed or destroyed due to ionizing gamma radiation and annihilations.
Seemingly Intelligent Behavior
The non-ballistic trajectory of antimatter in a gravitational field, subject to air currents and out-gassing, gives the appearance and sense of intelligence where none exists. In the case of antimatter meteors, intelligence resides in the observer or subject, not in the object. Antimatter meteors pass the UFO equivalent of the Turing Test for Artificial Intelligence.

The NASA STS-75 "Tether Incident" is heralded by ufologists as the best evidence for the existence of extraterrestrials to date. Elsewhere in my blog I cross examine this evidence and support my conclusion that video tube and zoom lens artifacts record out of focus foreground ice crystals of water vented from the space shuttle in microgravity subject to solar radiation and shadows, and the human eye confuses luminosity for opacity, which logic dictates is incorrect. For full details see my blog entry.
Ball Lightning
Antimatter meteors are composed of the same stuff as interplanetary matter. In the intense heat of gamma radiation, antimatter comets vaporize into droplets. The increased surface area and therefore air fuel mixture increases the rate of annihilations and ionizing gamma radiation produced. The result is a hovering, glowing, sputtering object that produces heat from gamma radiation and emits light by Compton scattering. Ball lightning rides air currents but exhibits antigravity properties like that postulated for antimatter.
Crop Circles
The initial description of crop circles is a circular depression of crops. Ionizing gamma radiation destroys cellular structures and molecular bonds. Over exposure is lethal to biological organisms. Weakened plant stems then crumple to the ground. More complex crop circle patterns are therefore man made hoaxes, which have been demonstrated.
"Alien" bodies
Ionizing gamma radiation causes burns worse than sunburn. First, second, and third degree burns increase in severity, and can be lethal. So called crash victims suffer third degree burns. Some people experiencing close encounters suffer radiation poisoning. Antimatter meteors appear like shiny Christmas tree ornaments surrounded by glowing lights. Bodies are invariably described as short, which is consistent with children that curiosity killed.
Mutilated Cows
Most people seek shelter at night, whereas herds of cows are not sheltered at night. The night sky is exposed to meteor strikes. Antimatter is indigestible, so any living organism eating or being hit by antimatter is doomed to mutilation.
Abductions and Lost Time
Antimatter meteors disrupt electrical processes including biological nervous systems. Getting struck by lightning can stop a heart, breathing, and brain activity. A concussion can interrupt the mental capacity to store long term memory. This gap in memory can never be restored. The human mind fills in mental gaps to supply the missing information. False memories are the result. The initial cause is interruption of brain activity, which can be caused the disruption of electrical processes of the brain by antimatter meteors.
Secrecy
Government cover ups of UFOs have taken on many forms over the years. At first UFO phenomena was misunderstood. The Air Force mandate to protect American airspace was violated by UFOs. UFOs killed humans by gamma radiation, and the bodies were recovered and examined. At that stage the motive behind the UFO cover up was to stave off public panic. All evidence was sequestered to determine the truth about UFOs. When the truth of antimatter meteors was uncovered, secrecy took on a new mission. More secrecy surrounds antigravity research than the Manhattan project, which created the atomic bomb. Now nations all over the world have nukes. Disinformation surrounding antigravity is intended to prevent enemy states from connecting the dots and discovering that antimatter has antigravity properties, and developing antigravity vehicles.
Motives for Rejection
The truth concerning the antimatter meteor hypothesis is hard to handle for a number of reasons by different vested interests. Here are many of those reasons. "Don't confuse me with the facts. I have my mind made up."
ET Buffs
People who want to believe that interstellar tourists are visiting Earth will reject the antimatter meteor hypothesis since it provides a consistent and comprehensive explanation for most if not all observations concerning UFOs. That leaves little if any reason to support the ET hypothesis.

Whereas the antimatter meteor hypothesis does not preclude the existence of ET, it does commandeer most if not all the circumstantial evidence. Many who want to believe in ET hope that ET tech will save us from ourselves. Antimatter technology may help that cause, however the best possible policy in all circumstances is for us to rely on our own ingenuity to save ourselves.
Skeptics
Skeptics have served in the role of the inquisition for orthodox science concerning the UFO heresy. Ridicule and condescension have been their weapons. On the one hand the antimatter meteor hypothesis does provide a scientific explanation. However, acceptance of the antimatter meteor hypothesis is an admission of guilt that skeptics have served as obstructionists where truth is concerned, which violates the tenets of the scientific method they so fervently defend.
Scientific Peer Review Publications
The requirements for acceptance of a new theory by scientific peer review publications is to prove why the standard model is incorrect, and to provide mathematical proof of an alternate explanation. Antigravity as a minus sign in Newton's gravitational equations is not acceptable. Antimatter can only be contained within a vacuum, and as such is in short supply possibly only located at Area 51 if anywhere on Earth. Therefore the antimatter meteor hypothesis is speculative and as such is rejected by scientific peer review publications.
Astrophysicists
Many a tenured reputation has been built upon the counter intuitive assumption that a disparity of matter and antimatter exists in the universe. The antimatter meteor hypothesis is predicated upon the premise that parity does exists between matter and antimatter in the universe. This calls into question the Big Bang, which has been at the heart of cosmologists' reputation for over half a century. Einstein, for one, never endorsed the Big Bang idea. For an alternate cosmology consistent with the parity of matter and antimatter see my blog and website.
Scientists
The scientific establishment loses face in a big way should the antimatter meteor hypothesis prove true. Confirmation will expose the fact that the hardest of the hard sciences, physics, is not immune from errors of analysis, self deception, and hubris. The Big Bang will come to be known by future generations as this generation's equivalent of the medieval debate over how many angles can dance on the head of a pin. It will shake science to its core. The scientific method will be proven fallible, and common people will come to look upon scientists and scientific theories with skepticism and dismissal, whether or not it is deserved.
Black Ops
The ET debate has served well as a cover for secrecy regarding antigravity technology. The intended target of disinformation campaigns is for any competing group to spend valuable time and resources on dead end technological quests. Bob Lazar claimed that atomic element 115 exhibits antigravity properties, and that he gained that knowledge from classified documents he read at a facility near Area 51.
Corporations
Truth is the enemy of secrecy and vice versa. Corporations rely on patents, trade secrets, proprietary information, and non disclosure agreements to stifle competition. The disclosure that secrecy has prevented the commercial development of antimatter technology, with huge energy saving potential, will raise the question whether government and legal support for corporate secrecy violates the public interest and possibly the very survival of the human race.
UFO Investigators
Full disclosure will threaten the livelihood of these researchers. Self interest dictates that they therefore don't want the antimatter meteor hypothesis to be true.
Cable Program Producers
Many cable TV shows will suddenly have no value when the antimatter meteor hypothesis is generally accepted by the public. The economic interests of producers for these shows will lose earning power.
Conclusions
The antimatter meteor hypothesis may lack consensus, but it is consistent and comprehensive in its ability to explain the observed behavior of UFOs. As such, the antimatter meteor hypothesis is the only viable explanation for UFOs to date. Extraterrestrial vehicles begs the question of underlying technology. Any craft that emits gamma radiation is an incompetent design, which repudiates the probability of intelligent manufacture.

When it comes to making decisions, people routinely choose popularity over rigorous analysis, and familiarity over critical thinking. When the truth is inconvenient, we opt for convenience. CYA is human nature.

However, we measure progress by how well our theories match reality. Suppose the experts have it all wrong. How do we correct entrenched mistakes and overcome inertial resistance? It's not clear science or the scientific method has the answer to that one. It's not clear any other discipline has an answer either. Ignorance is bliss, but now you've encountered an alternate explanation for UFOs. Should you ever encounter a levitating, reflecting, glowing object and despite a temptation to reach out and touch it, recall my advice. Don't. CYA is human nature. Truth transcends context.
