Another possible location of Atlantis?   Huge underwater landscape discovered near Iceland

Buried deep beneath the sediment of the North Atlantic Ocean lies an ancient, lost landscape with furrows cut by rivers and peaks that once belonged to mountains. Geologists recently discovered this roughly 56-million-year-old landscape using data gathered for oil companies.  "It looks for all the world like a map of a bit of a country onshore," said Nicky White, the senior researcher. "It is like an ancient fossil landscape preserved 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) beneath the seabed."

Archeologist believes he's found evidence of ancient and advanced civilization at the bottom of the Persian Gulf

Refugees from a lost civilization whose ruins and relics lie submerged on the seabed deep beneath the Persian Gulf may have founded ancient, advanced Middle Eastern societies thousands of years ago in the time before the Pharaohs.  According to Jeffrey Rose, a Birmingham uni archaeologist, recent excavations and discoveries indicate that a large number of substantial and relatively sophisticated settlements sprang up around the shores of the Persian Gulf quite suddenly perhaps 7,500 years ago.

UFO captured on camera of airplane passenger flying over Brazil

An astonishing UFO event has taken place in the skies above Brazil. Photographs have come to light of a UFO that monitored a plane and terrified travellers. The incident was first reported by the popular UFO website www.ufocasebook.com.  The man who took the photos as the plane flew over Rio de Janiero (three in total and two of which can be viewed above and below) was a passenger on the airplane who was on vacation.  Several other passengers saw the object in question, which was described by witnesses as an egg-shaped ball of light.  Some passengers screamed in fear as they felt the plane was too close to the UFO, and there was the possibility of a collision between the two craft.  According to statements of passengers, the UFO maneuvered among the clouds, but continued to monitor the aircraft for about two minutes .  The camera used to capture the UFO was a Nokia 3120 Classic.  This publication has extensively reported on small orbs sent by an alien civilization located in Andromeda to monitor Earth and has received information that these orbs enter Earth above Brazil through a star-gate. The orbs are "unmanned" and travel across galaxies at speeds well beyond that of light.  Government scientists studying UFOs make frequent trips to Brazil and will certainly be studying this case.
