The Orion Constellation and the Pyramids of Giza

Time lapse photograph of the Orion constellation showing the three evenly spaced bright spots on a slant that make up what the Greek's thought was a belt from which "hung" the great hunter's sword. Egyptians considered this constellation and the nearby bright star, Sirius, to be the home of the gods that came to earth and created life and humankind. Each Egytian king wanted to return his soul to Orion and Sirius after death.The far left object of Orion's belt is the Horsehead Nebula, also known as Alnitak (Zeta Orionis). The middle belt object is the star, Alnilam, and the top of the belt is the star, Mintaka.

November 10, 2001  Sedona, Arizona - French-born Robert Bauval, construction engineer and author, worked from 1974-1985 as a project manager and strategic engineer on construction projects in Saudi Arabia. He spoke this past weekend at the Earth Mysteries Conference in Sedona about the power of Egyptian talismans, physical objects that through magic and rituals were thought to bring the power of stars and gods into them; and his theory that the pyramids of Giza have the same alignment as the stars in the belt of Orion. He wrote a book about it with Adrian Gilbert in 1995 entitled, The Orion Mystery, Unlocking the Secrets of the Pyramids.

November 1, 2001 - As a comet approached the sun on October 22, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) was monitoring two coronal mass ejections from the sun headed for Earth. Solar radiation heated the comet's ice and rocks causing an outgassing of water and dust. The water molecules broke down in the sun's ultraviolet light into oxygen and hydrogen atoms. The hydrogen atoms interacted with the sun's coronal plasma and glowed brightly. The dark circle in upper left corner is the sun masked by an instrument that blots out sunlight. The white circle within the disk shows the size and position of the actual sun.

12,000-Year-Old Human Hair DNA Has No Match With Modern Humans

Woodburn, Oregon Ice Age archaeological site where 10,000 to 12,000-year-old unidentified human hair was found in 1999.
Woodburn, Oregon Ice Age archaeological site where 10,000 to 12,000-year-old unidentified human hair was found in 1999.

October 28, 2001 Woodburn, Oregon - Human hair dating back to the last Ice Age ten to twelve thousand years ago was discovered in 1999 at an archaeological dig in Woodburn, Oregon between Salem and Portland. The Ice Age site is filled with the bones of elephants, sloths, condors and a bird with a 14-foot wingspan. The unidentified human hairs were found perfectly preserved a few feet underground and had enough follicles for DNA analysis. This week I talked with geology professor emeritus, William Orr, at the University of Oregon, about DNA efforts to match the Ice Age hair to any living hominoid species on earth today.

October 12, 2001 - The FBI announced today that both The New York Times and NBC have received mail containing suspicious white powder. The NBC employee (not yet identified) who handled an envelope has tested positive for skin anthrax. She has long worked for Tom Brokaw's "Nightly News" and on September 25, she handled a letter that threatened Mr. Brokaw and contained a white powder that she reported to authorities. The powder at first tested negative for anthrax. But then she developed a black cutaneous anthrax infection the size of a softball on her arm. That means the bacteria entered her skin through a cut, but so far no anthrax bacteria has been confirmed in that mailed powder. Cutaneous anthrax is easily treatable with antibiotics which the NBC employee has been taking and progressing well.

Update - October 10, 2001 Boca Raton, Florida -
The third employee at American Media, Inc. in Boca Raton (Lantana), Florida has tested positive for exposure to an anthrax bacteria known as the Ames strain after an Ames, Iowa bacteria found in the tissue of a dead animal in the early 1950s. The other two cases are also the Ames strain which has been distributed over the past half century to many medical researchers to make anthrax vaccines. The 35-year-old woman is being treated with antibiotics. The FBI says there is no evidence to link the three anthrax cases to terrorists, but has now shifted its investigation to a criminal probe. The consensus is that the anthrax bacteria have an "unnatural source," which implies manipulation at least by someone with malicious criminal intent, if not terrorists.

Large Prehistoric Underground Circle Found in Chillicothe, Ohio

90-foot-diameter circle discovered entirely underground by magnetic sensing equipment at Chillicothe prehistoric Mound City Group National Monument about 40 miles south of Columbus, Ohio. Large earthworks of ditches, walls and mounds in circles, octagons, squares and rectangles were created by cultures that lived in the Ohio region. First known were the Adena (1000 B.C. to 200 A.D.) followed by the Hopewell (500 B. C. to 500 A.D.) The Adena and Hopewell did not leave any writings, so no one understands precisely why the large soil formations were created.

October 5, 2001  Chillicothe, Ohio - About 3,000 years ago, a culture that archaeologists call the "Adena" made great soil formations in Ohio and the greater Mississippi Valley. By 500 B. C., the Adena evolved into a subsequent culture that archaeologists call the "Hopewell" after an 18th Century farmer named Hopewell who owned the land near Chillicothe, Ohio upon which many mounds are concentrated. The ancient patterns include circles, octagons, squares and rectangles. When the Adena dug great round ditches and piled walls of soil along the edges, one of their favorite measurements for circles was a 90-foot-diameter. No one knows why.

Black Hole At Center of Milky Way – More Evidence

This false-color image from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory shows a central region of our Milky Way Galaxy about 24,000 light years from Earth known as Sagittarius A+. The bright, white central light source was produced by a huge X-ray flare thought to have occurred near a black hole at the center of our galaxy approximately 93 million miles in diameter.

September 7, 2001  Cambridge, Massachusetts - MIT scientists have detected for the first time a rapid X-ray flare at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy near what is thought to be a supermassive black hole. The observation was on October 26-27, 2000, but not reported until the September 6, 2001 issue of Nature. The lead author, MIT's Frederick Baganoff, said, "This is extremely exciting because it's the first time we have seen in our own neighborhood a supermassive black hole devour a chunk of material. This signal comes from closer to the event horizon of our Galaxy's supermassive black hole than any that we have ever received before. It's as if the material sent us a postcard before it fell in."

 Chilbolton Observatory – What Does It Do?

The Chilbolton Observatory is on the edge of Chilbolton village across the Test River from Wherwell, Hampshire, U. K. south of Andover. Crop formations historically first appeared in Hampshire and have continued to evolve repeatedly at places such as the Chilbolton Observatory, Goodworth Clatford, Middle Wallop, and Danebury Fort.

August 30, 2001 Chilbolton, Hampshire, England - On Tuesday, August 28, The Daily Mail finally published a news story with photographs by researcher and author, Lucy Pringle, about the controversial "face" and "binary code" in the wheat field next to the Chilbolton Observatory south of Andover, Hampshire. Chilbolton Observatory is a government-owned installation that was constructed in 1965 to study radio wave propagations from space and satellites and is owned and operated by the Rutherford-Appleton Laboratory under the U. K. Office of Science and Technology. Cereal crop fields that run along the barbed wire boundary of the Observatory are owned and operated by various farmers. The wheat in which the formations appeared is owned by the local Leckford Estate and by Wednesday, August 29, the Estate had cut down the "face" and "binary code" in its normal wheat harvest.
