Event Horizon | Are There Alien Artifacts Orbiting Earth? w/ Beatriz Villarroel @EventHorizonShow | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 5 days ago.
Are these Lurkers? Researcher Beatriz Villarroel found bright, shiny, possibly flat or complex shaped objects that were in geo-synchronous orbit with Earth in the early 50's. Well before Sputnik or any other attempted satellites. Also, three of the objects travel in a straight line.
We live in a world where we are constantly observing ourselves from orbit. We don’t even think twice about the satellite surveillance of our world because it’s us doing it. But imagine if we were being watched by someone else, far before the dawn of the space age by some unknown agent. More, think of a scenario where it was watching us, and we were inadvertently with our astronomical photographic plates watching it as well.
In 1957 the Soviet Union launched humanity’s first orbital satellite, Sputnik 1 ushering in the age of telecommunications and satellites of all flavors from weather to espionage. But our ability to monitor the skies photographically stretches decades before the advent of human space travel, leaving us with an enormous collection of astronomical survey plates to study. Within these plates, previous to 1957, you shouldn’t expect to find anything transient presenting itself as a satellite since we didn’t have them yet.
But that’s apparently not the case. In a photographic plate dating from 1950 my guest today has identified a transient phenomenon that not only appears like a satellite would, but actually tracks across the plate exactly as you would expect a satellite in orbit of earth would do. Now there have been conspiracy theories floating around on the internet such as the Black Knight regarding satellites previous to the space age, but these are urban legends that conflate different sources, usually coupled with a photograph of a very human made thermal blanket in orbit. But there is a kernel of something here, there was one such mention of the possibility of artificial satellites of unknown origin before the space age began was made by Major Donald Keyhoe, a prominent figure in the early days of UFOlogy, reporting that the US government was aware of two such satellites. If there was any truth to that report is unknown, but it’s interesting nonetheless.
Adding to this mystery, there are other obscure oddities hidden within the history of science that may deepen this mystery. One of these are the mysterious signals Nikola Tesla reported picking up that he thought were of alien origin, though in reality it could just as easily been pulsars or any of the other myriad of natural radio sources that were unknown in his day. But there are also the case of Long Delayed Echoes in radio, where transmissions repeat back to the transmitter often seconds afterward as an echo. Echoes in Radio are not uncommon, the ionosphere loves doing things like that, but a delay of seconds raises eyebrows. Does something repeat or reflect our signals back to us occasionally?
But setting that aside, astronomers looking for transients in photographic plates and then have it result in a detection is in itself astonishing. They simply should not be there, and in 1950 no one on earth was anywhere close to the capability of putting a satellite in orbit. And it’s not just one candidate, but three, that really do appear to line up in a non-random way and not as a result of a defect in the plate, though this still needs to be confirmed. Whatever these objects were is a complete unknown. So the question is open, were we being watched?
