Alien hunter claims Nasa cut its live feed from the space station yet again after another UFO is spotted

John Craddick, from Wolverhampton,said he was sitting with a friend, teaching him how to use the Nasa live feed when he spotted the object on Friday 20 January (pictured). While it is not always possible to determine exactly what these objects are during the brief period they appear in the stream, there are a number possible explanations for these types of sightings. In the past, a Nasa spokesperson has explained, 'Reflections from station windows, the spacecraft structure itself or lights from Earth commonly appear as artefacts in photos and videos from the orbiting laboratory.'

Gall wasps makes host tunnel to freedom then eats it alive

A group of scientists from Rice University in Texas discovered the strange behaviour and said it is a rare example of hypermanipulation, when a parasite is manipulated by another parasite. The gall wasp would normally mature inside the crypt it made (pictured), then tunnel to freedom through an 'emergence hole'. But the parasite (inset) hijacks its host, and makes it drill an emergence hole too small to escape, making the gall wasp become stuck.

The details were leaked by an anonymous source to London-based International Business Times UK, and were reportedly obtained from September 2015.

Geometric patterns discovered in ancient Pueblo buildings

Hundreds of years ago, the ancient Southwestern Pueblo people built complex geometric structures with near-perfect accuracy, creating equilateral triangles, 45-degree right triangles, and even the ‘Golden rectangle.’ And, they did it all without writing any numbers down. At the Sun Temple archaeological site in Colorado (main image), constructed around AD 1200, researchers have discovered a slew of sophisticated shapes that are still familiar today, revealing architectural ‘genius’ that they say would be almost impossible to replicate. Similar patterns have been seen at Pueblo Bonito in New Mexico (pictured inset).

Bizarre video claims to show a UFO off the coast of Algeria 'sucking water' from the ocean using strange funnels

The clip was recorded on a mobile phone, and was posted on Ohio-based YouTube channel, Secureteam10, who regularly post supposed UFO sightings.

Instead, they say an object in the sky around the waterspout could be a UFO.

Scientists discovered the object this past Friday, and they say it will be a ‘close shave’ when the asteroid passes within 162,000 miles of Earth. It will approach just before midnight (ET) on Tuesday.

Stunning images reveal the brain's internal rhythms

A new mathematical tool has revealed the rhythm of electrical activity in the brain as it responds to external stimuli. While researchers know that this activity, known as neural oscillation, takes place in the hippocampus region in rats to encode information on the animal’s position, much of its function in the human brain still remains a mystery. In a series of colourful diagrams, researchers have now revealed how these responses fluctuate, and they say the breakthrough could help improve neuroscientists’ understanding of these processes.

NASA conducts astronaut simulations of a ride in the Orion

NASA engineers have simulated what it will be like inside of the Orion spacecraft during launch when it takes off on its first manned mission as early as 2021. Subjects in the simulation were fitted with advanced crew escape suits as they carried out tests to determine how well they could see the display and controls as the craft vibrated atop the Space Launch System rocket.
