Joseph P Farrell – No, I’m not talking about baseball. I’m talking about an article J.B. spotted and sent to me, and a couple of days after it was sent, many other regular readers and contributors here spotted the same story, so thanks to all of you who did send it.
Anyway, back to me not talking about baseball. What made me Sit Up and Take Notice about this story is my strong suspicion that it’s about a lot more than… well, what it is about. What it’s about is this: Continue reading
What is the Black Knight satellite? Is it in fact a mysterious Alien probe that originated from the Epsilon Bootes system (The Epsilon Boötis is a double star in the northern constellation of Boötes. It has the traditional names Izar and Pulcherrima. )?
Was it placed into polar orbit 13,000 years ago? Well, we might not be able to accurately answer everything about it, but it is one of the most mysterious objects to orbit our planet.
According to monitoring agencies around the world, The Black knight satellite has been transmitting radio signals for over 50 years now. The anomalous satellite has captured the interest of numerous governments around the world, including the government of the US, Russia and China and there are even rumors that the Great Nikola Tesla was one of the first to intercept signals from this “Alien” satellite. After Tesla’s discovery in the next 30 to 50 years the signal was being intercepted more frequently until it was apparently “decoded”. Since the 1930’s Astronomers worldwide have been reporting strange radio signals which allegedly come from the “Black Knight”.
Many believe that the Black Knight Satellite is in nothing more than space debris, yet article written over 50 years ago tell a different story about the Black Knight Satellite. Continue reading

The Tōhoku earthquake that rattled Japan on 11 March changed Earth’s gravitational field enough to affect the orbits of satellites. The satellites’ altered courses suggest that the earthquake was stronger and deeper than instruments on Earth indicated.
These weren’t just any satellites: they are the twin spacecraft of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), which fly 220 kilometres apart in a polar orbit about 500 kilometres above Earth. GRACE’s job is to map the Earth’s gravity field, and it does this by monitoring the effect of minute variations in the field on the trajectories of the satellites and the changing distance between them.
Earth’s gravity field changes whenever there is a redistribution of mass on its surface. This may be a result of snowfall, flood, melting of ice caps – or earthquakes. “That perturbed gravitational field affects the satellite orbits,” explains Shin-Chan Han of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
