In the past 2016, one of the readers of the newspaper "Now" named Valery, who has 59 years of life experience behind him, said in all seriousness that on February 21, 2013, he observed a real flying saucer hovering over Daugavpils through binoculars.
“The plate, as it seemed to me, was about the size of our Lokomotiv stadium. I myself live in a private house on Novy Vorstadt. After that incident, I walked for three days under the impression … But they won't believe who you tell,”the eyewitness of the incredible complained. I listened, made notes in my working notebook, but then, I confess, I forgot about it, you never know who saw what, there is no evidence-based photograph!
Valery's story was recalled in connection with the preparation of an article about UFOs. I pushed off from the fact that in 2010 Russian scientists made a number of sensational, fundamental discoveries that could revolutionize industrial energy. This was reported by Academician of the Russian Natural Sciences (RANS), Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Valerian Sobolev, according to whom a special electrochemical process was discovered experimentally, the main products in it are high-temperature materials in a new state.
Unthinkable discovery
One discovery led to others: scientists invented a new class of materials, a new energy source, a new method for generating cold plasma, a new superconductor. And then there was an opportunity to start developing devices-sources of electricity for household and industrial purposes, which could work continuously, producing electricity without using fuel and avoiding environmental pollution (RIA Novosti).
Today, it is predicted to abandon traditional energy sources - nuclear fuel, gas, oil products and coal. Based on these discoveries, it will also be possible to develop the latest technologies for producing lightweight, high-temperature, ultra-strong materials; they can be used in auto, aviation, rocket and mechanical engineering, in construction and other areas. “The new state of matter discovered by us has a non-stoichiometric composition, like some meteorites. It was considered unthinkable to make such a composition under terrestrial conditions, "Sobolev said. The emphasis was also placed on the fact that the discovery of a new superconductor makes it possible to create aircraft with "support-free movement" in space - here's a UFO for you!

Get to Mars in just 35 days
At the NAUKA 2015 scientific conference in Moscow, a scientific breakthrough in the space industry was also reported. It was said that Russian scientists managed to create a flying saucer capable of traveling without fuel using electricity. A mock-up of the aircraft was presented at the conference, thanks to which it will be possible in the future to reach Mars in just 35 days. The development is based on the Biefeld Braum effect, which allows you to levitate in the air using electricity. Researchers predict that on such devices, made in the form of a disk, it will be possible to move between planets and even galaxies, beat off space debris and meteorites. In 2015, the Planet Today portal reported that the production of flying saucers will begin in the near future and that, according to scientists, it could take about three years to create one flying saucer.
However, the Americans are also doing well in creating flying saucers! In 2014, there was information that tests of a flying saucer, which experts call an aerodynamic inflatable supersonic retarder, will take place in June at the US Air Force missile range on the island of Kauai (Hawaiian archipelago). The experiment was supposed to be in the stratosphere. The designers explained: the device will be attached to the base of the spacecraft, which will ensure their deceleration in the rarefied Martian atmosphere and a soft landing on the surface of the Red Planet. Two versions of the device were conceived - with a diameter of 6 and 8 meters. The first is for space trucks, the second for manned spacecraft. The structure was equipped with a parachute with a diameter of 33.5 m, the purpose of which is to ensure the successful landing of heavy loads on Mars,including residential modules and controlled vehicles for the return of crews to Earth. During the test, the saucer was supposed to be raised in a balloon to a height of 36 km, after which its rocket engines were turned on. With a climb of 55 km and reaching a speed of 3.5 times the speed of sound, she should have started to descend using an inflatable braking device and a parachute. The device was supposed to be floated in the Pacific Ocean.
Later, netizens wondered whether the United States was really testing flying saucers, or was the video that appeared on the Internet just another fake? It shows a saucer with US Air Force emblems flying slowly near a military aircraft. The quality of the shooting leaves much to be desired, which suggests the idea of a fake. However, attention was also paid to the fact that earlier in the media, information about US attempts to create a flying saucer repeatedly appeared. Journalists wrote about the prototype of the TR-3B-Astra flying saucer, developed by American scientists almost on the basis of alien technologies.
DID LANDWIG LIE?
Meanwhile, Hitler's engineers were the first to pay attention to saucer flying machines. So, in 1939, in Nazi Germany, the aircraft designer Heinrich Focke patented an aircraft with a vertical takeoff and a turbocharged engine in the shape of a plate. However, his trials did not end with success. Later, rumors spread that the USSR took advantage of German technology and was conducting similar tests. In general, there are many stories connected with German flying saucers, one of them tells that the Nazis carried out their tests in Antarctica.
Historical facts show that the German Antarctic Expedition took place in the 1938s - 1939s. On the ship, captained by Alfred Ritscher, 24 crew members and 33 polar explorers sailed to the South Pole. The ship was equipped with a catapult for launching aircraft. However, the purpose of this expedition was not at all testing flying saucers. On April 12, 1939, Ritscher reported: “I have completed my mission. For the first time, German aircraft flew over Antarctica. Every 25 kilometers, planes dropped pennants. We have covered an area of approximately 600,000 square kilometers. 350 thousand of them were photographed. " That is, it was about stake out a piece of Antarctica for Germany. The "marked" territory was named New Swabia (Neuschwabenland), in the west it adjoins the Norwegian Land of Kots,and in the east it neighbors also the Norwegian Queen Maud Land.
Since the 1950s, all stories about New Swabia are mainly associated with the name of Wilhelm Landig; in his trilogy "Thule", based on real facts, he writes that at the end of the war a squadron of the newest German submarines of the XXI type, equipped with self-loading electric motors, was able to go unnoticed a long distance, without surfacing, so that, accompanied by several flying saucers and a group of SS men land at base 211 in New Swabia. In an interview that V. Landig (1909-1997) gave shortly before his death, he confirmed the existence of this base (V. Landwig was engaged in a project to create flying saucers in one of the secret SS units). At the same time, he argued that the base in Antarctica was laid after 1939 and only in the mid-1950s it was abandoned, relocating to another facility in South America.
Authorities in cahoots with aliens?
According to historian Greg Eghigian from the University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, USA), who conducted a study to study the changes in the appearance of UFOs, the perception of them and the public's attitude towards them from 1947 to the present day, UFOs were a product of the Cold War and that atmosphere of secrecy and mistrust, which ultimately gave rise to a dispute between ufologists and scientists - both took irreconcilable positions (Public Understanding of Science). According to Eghigiyan's explanation, UFOs "appeared" due to the fact that the secret services of the United States and other Western countries urged ordinary people to inform them about all unusual phenomena and objects in the sky, fearing Soviet spies and reconnaissance aircraft. As a result, in the first 10 years of the Cold War, over 4,000 such reports were collected, some of them leaked to the press. This data was analyzed,and the results of their study were almost always classified, therefore, those who testify believed that the authorities were either in collusion with the "aliens" or were actively hiding their existence. As a result, scientists completely refused to contact ufologists, and the latter finally became firmly convinced that the authorities and official science were hiding aliens from them.
Pavel Poluyan, leading engineer of OJSC Yeniseigeofizika, specialist in competitive intelligence, has a different opinion. Confident that there are no aliens on earth, the expert believes that the flying saucers are built by the earthlings themselves, and they themselves fly on them! A very long investigation in this area led Poluyan to the conclusion: “Both we and the Americans are installing impulse engines on spacecrafts, which shoot out plasma at the right time. And create sufficient effort to move from one orbit to another. " As proof, Poluyan cites an article by scientists from the Moscow Aviation Institute "Ablative Pulsed Plasma Engine" and the work of the Institute of High-Current Electronics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences with reviews on electric jet engines. “These engines are big enough for space,and a plasma jet occurs there when the plastic plug located between the electrodes burns out. But flying saucers and devices, now known as "dark triangles" or "Belgian triangles" (such were repeatedly observed in the skies over Europe in the late 1980s of the last century), have railguns reduced to the size of a ballpoint pen and assembled into flat panels. which are similar in design to conventional plasma TVs.
People should know: there is nothing extraterrestrial-fantastic in UFOs - this is a completely terrestrial technique, although ingeniously invented. Probably, someday we will find out the names of its developers , - P. Poluyan concludes
