Figure this would have a better chance of surviving in the Media Center than on the main page, and I'll be adding youtube and podcast links from time to time as I come across them, so it fits.
This has been something that's interested me from a very young age, all aspects of mysterious stuff, whether we're talking forgotten or forbidden archeology or civilization (Atlantis, pre-colombian exploration of america, etc), unexplained events (like Tunguska in 1908, the lost Roanoke Island colony, etc), paranormal events like ghosts, the study of ESP and that sort of thing, conspiracy (ranging from JFK to stuff like the perpetration of the drug war and the infilitration of the media by US intelligence) and, of course, UFOs (which to me means "unexplained" not "extraterrestrial" but that's a whole other topic).
Anything could show up, and everybody should feel free to add whatever they like. Just try to keep it as civil and respectful as possible. This is not intended to be a DC thread; it's as much for entertainment purposes as it is to solve all the world's mysteries.
**Although if anybody posts anything from Third Phase of Moon they should probably expect me to kick them in the balls.**
Few things I like to watch or listen to in no particular order (most of this can be found on itunes as well...):

I was in the mountains of Afghanistan 3 years ago..doing a patrol and we stopped on a mountain to watch a village..a few hours after we stopped everyone but me and our Air Force man..Moose..were asleep since it was our turn on security and overwatch
I was on the gun looking down and the village whenever he start tapping my foot really fast..as I slowly turn and ask what was going on I see 7 lights going above us..it was low enough that the lights were lighting up the ground some..it was completely quiet..and it was shaped like the top 2/3 of a triangle
It was slowly moving forward towards the direction of the village..it was there for around a minute and then it was gone..the lights the shape just gone..after it was gone I asked Moose what exactly he had seen before he got a hold of me..all he said was he was sitting there looking around..he flipped up his NVDs and went to get a protein bar and as he ate it he saw the ground glowing and he looked up and it was above us
We agreed on the approximate size and shape of it..he called base on the radio asking if any aircraft were in out area..we were told no and asked why we were calling in since radio check wasn't for another hour..we told then we were positive of aircraft in the area and we're needing confirmation of it..we were told no aircraft
You've obviously been around plenty of aircraft at various altitudes, how high up would you say it was?
How big was it across?
How were the lights spaced and what color were they?
Did it move in ways that are hard to imagine a human being inside?
IMO, it could've been Col. Steve Austin, or Glork from dimension six, depending on what you witnessed... thanks for sharing, Mac. [Reply]

It just sound a bit too good to be true, as far as alien interference is concerned. I mean, if they've been monitoring us, they'd know we have the capability to detect a foreign satellite's presence. In that case, they'd know we know about them and they'd likely contact us in other ways.
On the conspiracy side of things, maybe that's all true and our government has made contact with them and is just withholding the information from us.
****, I'm drunk as hell and this shit is getting too real right now.
Even an open minded drunk can see the truth, we're not alone.
Yes, the government is withholding - all kinds - of earth shaking information. [Reply]

The Cecil Hotel...that place is ****ed in itself.
Yeah was looking into that place.
Crazy history. Any place that Crowley spent significant time is creepy. [Reply]

Yup. And anyone who thinks that religious beliefs are the reason that the information is held from us is ignoring the $100 trillion elephant in the room. [Reply]
Okay not being a smart ass but when I read it slow again I still can't figure it out: how is possible for the top two thirds a triangle to be "shaped" differently than the full triangle it makes up two thirds of? I mean I am so sure there is absolutely no difference in the shape of the two things described but am I just missing some obvious detail? [Reply]

Social upheaval is not necessarily synonymous with religious beliefs.
But I would tend to lean more towards the 1% of the 1% that owns pretty much everything having their own little technocracy, with stuff the rest of us may not ever see, much less see in 50 or 60 years, which is purportedly how far ahead skunkworks tech was back in the eighties, even before the exponential development of computer technology.
Not to mention the not so subtle intentional burial of basically all competing energy production technology by the fossil fuel industry. It's just insane to me that we're still running internal combustion engines in everything and depending on older nuclear plants built with 50s and 60s technology as well as coal fired plants which, even made to be "clean" are nowhere close to environmentally responsible and as far as I know still provide somewhere around half the electricity in the US.

There's also some really screwy historical stuff with the Apollo astronauts (not referring to Musgrave here, obviously...), like how none of them can/could recount their experience on the moon. I in no way support the IMO crazy idea that the Apollo missions were faked, but that's just freaking weird. How could anybody not remember what it felt like to be one of the few humans in recorded history to set foot on someplace other than earth? [Reply]
I always found Armstrong's behavior interesting...never gave interviews and his one public speaking appearance, he gives a bizarrely cryptic speech. Gus Grissom...well I mean that's an entirely different story lol.
I absolutely LOVE the entire moon landing (and other moon stories) fake/not faked story and conspiracies...whether there's credence to any of it on either story. Just so damn interesting to me. [Reply]
Armstrong's entire personality was said to have polar shifted after the mission. Theory being that something big happened up there, out of the eyes of the world.
Of course he might just be pissed that the only reason he was the first man on the moon was so that he could take pictures of Buzz Aldrin, and then get out of the way so Buzz could do whatever Masonic skullduggery he was up to. [Reply]

I've always wondered, and I know this might sound really kooky, if they really did encounter something up on the moon. I know there's been a lot of rumors and theories about the dark side of the moon stuff and missing/deleted footage, pictures, etc. [Reply]
