White House Wants to Make it Easier for FBI to Access Private Emails

In a story just breaking today (July 29th) by the Washington Post, the Obama Administration is seeking to ease restrictions {more. . .)

Extraterrestrial Species

Popular culture has programmed most of us to think of one thing when we imagine alien encounters.  Generally, we imagine the classic “Grey” type of alien.  Grey or white skin, triangular head, large black eyes, a tiny mouth, and spindly body.  These are the aliens of  “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, “Fire in the Sky”, “Communion”, and the recent “The Fourth Kind”.

Alien Beings from the movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”

However, many researches for varying reasons have come to {more. . .)

Zecharia Sitchin Stakes Everything on Ancient DNA

I’ve noticed that in recent months, there has been a renewed interest in Ancient Astronaut theories, once relegated to the tinfoil hat wearing crowd. (In other words, MY people!)   With the History Channel’s repeated exploration of the topic, a groundswell of fascination has been buzzing through the air.

Recently I posed a question to a friend on this very topic.  I wondered if people like Zecharia Sitchin (Earth Chronicles Series) and Erich von Däniken (Chariots of the Gods) felt vindicated by {more. . .)

10 Extraordinary Questions With… Michael Horn

We are kicking off a new feature here on Extraordinary Intelligence.  I couldn’t be more excited to present the “Extraordinary Questions With…” series.  I’ve been talking to so many interesting and exciting people in the world of the Unknown, the Unexplained, and the Extraordinary… and the subject of our first installment is no exception.

Many of you have heard of the Extra-Terrestrial encounters of Billy Meier.  We’ve even discussed it before here on EI:  Extraordinary Videos: The Billy Meier Story.  Recently, I was {more. . .)

Extraordinary Videos: The Billy Meier Story

One of the most heated debates within the Ufology community deals with the case of Billy Meier.  Meier is a native of Switzerland who claims that since around 1942 he has been a UFO contactee. He claims to have made direct contact with a variety of Extraterrestrial beings over the decades, who have not only visited and communicated with him, but have bestowed upon him prophetic visions of the future.

Coast to Coast Am host George Noory on Nightline

 

Everyone’s favorite late night radio host, George Noory, host of Coast to Coast Am, was recently featured on ABC network’s Nightline.

For those who don’t know, Coast to Coast Am is a 4 hour talk radio program that broadcasts 7 nights a week to a world wide audience.   The subject matter on the show ranges from Paranormal encounters, to Government Conspiracies, to Earth changes… anything that involves the “unknown”.  I have been listening to C2C for years, and {more. . .)

Spaceship shaped object captured by Hubble

I’ve always embraced my own inner geek… but every once in a while I get a self inflicted reminder as to the precise level of nerd-girl-ishness that I’ve acquired.  Case in point. I’d heard on the radio about an object that was recently photographed by the Hubble Telescope.  Apparently, it resembled some kind of spacecraft.  Of course, I had to run home and Google it.

When I found an article about this object, I scrolled through all of the words and went straight for the {more. . .)

Extraordinary Videos: The Fourth Kind – Abduction

Today’s video post features a documentary that is presented by George Knapp (Investigative Journalist/Frequent host of Coast to Coast Am) and Above Top Secret. The doc is called The Fourth Kind — Alien Abduction Stories. The full documentary can be found at the bottom of this post.

By now you’ve likely heard about the upcoming feature film that also goes by the title The Fourth Kind, and explores alien abduction. This title references the commonly used scale of UFO/Alien encounters.

1947 UFO Sightings Prior to the Roswell Incident

This fascinating list I am about to share was compiled by a friend of the Extraordinary Intelligence Myspace profile. By the by…if you aren’t friends with E.I. on Myspace yet…why??? Add us now! http://www.myspace.com/extraordinaryintel

Extraordinary Thursday Videos: Overlords of the UFO

This classic 1977 documentary, Overlords of the UFO,  is a must see for all paranormal and UFO enthusiasts.  It is a low budget doc that has become a bit of a cult legend.  It is cheesy and corny… some of the evidence presented is wonky (to put it politely) but it is wildly entertaining.  Includes an interview with Travis Walton (real person whose experiences inspired the film Fire in the Sky).  Check it out and relive the schlocky, silly, sensational {more. . .)

Scientists baffled by “Alien Baby”

In 2007, Marao Lopez discovered a strange creature on his farm in Mexico.  Frightened by the otherworldly appearance of the small beast, he decided to drown it.  He claims that he held it under water for hours before it finally died.

The mysterious creature was handed over to scientists at the end of last year, and they’ve been analyzing it ever since.

Their results are astonishing! It seems that through DNA tests and scans of {more. . .)

Extraordinary Saturday Videos: Reptilians

Goodness gracious, me oh my oh golly gee!   Is it SATURDAY already?? Whoopsiedoodles!  Thursday came and went without so much as a reminder that I had some videos to post!  So it looks like we’re going to have some Saturday videos instead.  And luckily, my mad Photoshoppin’ skillz enabled me to cleverly adjust my normal Extraordinary Thursday Videos graphic, so that the casual observer would have no idea whatsoever that we normally do this on another day.  Bow down to meeeeee!

Since it is Slitherin’ {more. . .)

UFO Hovers Over China City for More than 30 Minutes

It seems that lately there have been more and more sightings of UFOs appearing in blatant fashion over major cities.  If these sightings truly originate from intelligent life not of this world, what should we make of their increasingly bold appearances?  The following  is one such inexplicable mass sighting which occurred just days ago.

At about 10 pm on the evening of August 23, a UFO appeared in the sky above Beibei Binjiang Road in Chongqing. The UFO {more. . .)

Astronaut Buzz Aldrin claims there is a monolith on Mars Moon

This is indeed some strange news.  Apollo 11 Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, who along with Neil Armstrong became one of the first two men to set foot on the Moon, has raised a few eyebrows again with some comments he made recently about Mars.

Aldrin has been busy promoting exploration of the Red Planet, and during an appearance on CSPAN’s Washington Journal he made the following statement:

We should go boldly where man has not gone before. Fly by the comets, visit asteroids, {more. . .)
