Art From The Space



The outer space not only leave us mysteries about millions possibility of other living things, but also give us super huge artworks those aged  are millions of years. These artworks of course cannot be seen with naked eyes, but our human technology such us Hubble Space Telescope and Spitzer Space telescope have given us the chance to enjoy these remarkable arts.


The Sombrero Galaxy 


The Sombrero galaxy is located some 28 million light-years away. Viewed from Earth, it is just six degrees south of its equatorial plane. Spitzer detected infrared emission not only from the ring, but from the center of the galaxy too, where there is a huge black hole, believed to be a billion times more massive than our Sun.
It is called the Sombrero galaxy because of in visible light, it resembles the broad-brimmed Mexican hat. However, in Spitzer's striking infrared view, the galaxy looks more like a "bull's eye."

Carina Nebula

The nebula contains at least a dozen brilliant stars that are 50 to 100 times the mass of our Sun. Like cracking open a watermelon and finding its seeds, the infrared telescope "busted open" this murky cloud to reveal star embryos tucked inside finger-like pillars of thick dust. The top of a three-light-year tall pillar of cool hydrogen is being worn away by the radiation of nearby stars, while stars within the pillar unleash jets of gas that stream from the peaks.


Carina Nebula
Messier 74

Bright knots of glowing gas light up the arms of spiral galaxy M74, indicating a rich environment of star formation. Messier 74, also called NGC 628, is slightly smaller than our Milky Way.

 The Crab Nebula

The Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant, all that remains of a tremendous stellar explosion. Observers in China and Japan recorded the supernova nearly 1,000 years ago, in 1054 !!!

Crab Nebula
Helix Nebula

This eye pupils like nebula is called The Helix Nebula. This detailed picture of the Helix Nebula shows a fine web of filaments, like the spokes of a bicycle, embedded in the colorful red and blue gas ring around this dying star. The Helix Nebula is one of the nearest planetary nebulae to Earth, only 650 light years away

Helix Nebula
The Cat's Eye Nebula

Intricate structures of concentric gas shells, jets of high-speed gas and shock-induced knots of gas make up this complicated planetary nebula. The Cat's Eye Nebula is about 1,000 years old, and could have resulted from a double-star system.

White Dwarf Planetary Nebula NGC 2440

A Sun-like star ends its life by casting off its outer layers of gas, which form a cocoon around the star's remaining core. Ultraviolet light makes the material glow. The burned-out star, called a white dwarf, is the white dot in the center.

Stars Adorn Orion's Sword

This image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope shows what lies near the sword of the constellation Orion -- an active stellar nursery containing thousands of young stars and developing protostars. Many will turn out like our sun. Some are even more massive. These massive stars light up the Orion nebula, which is seen here as the bright region near the center of the image.
To the north of the Orion nebula is a dark filamentary cloud of cold dust and gas, over 5 light-years in length, containing ruby red protostars that jewel the hilt of Orion's sword. These are the newest generation of stars in this stellar nursery, and include the protostar HOPS 68, where Spitzer spotted tiny green crystals in a surrounding cloud of gas.

The Antennae galaxies

The Antennae galaxies is located about 62 million light-years from Earth, are shown in this composite image from the Chandra X-ray Observatory (blue), the Hubble Space Telescope (gold and brown), and the Spitzer Space Telescope (red). The Antennae galaxies take their name from the long antenna-like arms seen in wide-angle views of the system. These features were produced in the collision.

Art of Time Independent

I am using this term because we still have no idea why these pieces of art exist in the time they're not supposed to exist. Term from The naturalist Ivan T Anderson "Out of Place Artifacts - Oopart" is likely more familiar to describe these pieces of art.


These pieces of arts and technologies that i will mention below still leave us the mysteries, what are the true purpose of it, how they created and why they were left in where they found....

1. The Klerksdorp Spheres - Out of Time Ball Bearing

Klerksdorp Spheres - formed 2.8 billion years ago

Klerksdorp Spheres - named before where they found are small objects those widely in shape from either approximate or flattened spheres to well-defined discs and often are intergrown,  some are etched with three parallel grooves running around the equator with the diameter range from 3 cm to 5 cm. The material of these spheres consist of either hematite (Fe2O3) or wollastonite (CaSiO3) mixed with minor amounts of hematite and goethite (FeOOH). Simply say they are metals.

Observations by indicated that many of the Klerksdorp "Spheres" found in unaltered pyrophyllite mining consist of pyrite (FeS2) - all naturally occurring minerals, and unlikely to be used in a manufacturing process. And what is remarkable is, that, this is not a usual mineral deposit they mined. This is a 3-billion-year-old pyrophyllite deposits mined by Wonderstone Ltd., near Ottosdal, South Africa. At this time in earth's history, only simple forms of algae were thought to exist !!!.

By the looks, and counting the artifacts found (over 150 spheres), we can compare it to our technology - the steel ball for ball bearing.

Steel Ball  Bearing - Modern Time (first patented 1794)
So, if the technology to produce steel ball appear in 18th century, how  come similar balls - the klerksdorp spheres- buried in a 2.8 billion years old deposit ?. Who put them there ?



2. Abydos Carving - Out of Time Vehicle Designs


Carving at Abydos Temple

This strange hierogliph is carved at the ceiling an ancient temple in ancient city complex of Abydos, a few hundred miles south of Cairo. It was first examined in 1848 by an archaeological expedition but none of that time can explain the meaning of these hierogliph. Finally, hierogliph is considered only as an engraving strange objects unknown. 


Decades later, these hierogliph surfaced again, but, this time a few people recognize the carving hierogliph as helicopters, planes, tank and submarines -t he objects those are created in the 20th century.

This Hierogliph was found in a temple founded by Pharaoh Seti I about 3,000 years ago, not in the pyramid as some people thought. The question now is, how carving a modern transport machinery could exist in the temple 3,000 years old? 



3. Roman Dodecahedron - Mysterious Tools 


Roman Dodecahedron

This object is a small hollow object made of bronze or stone, with a dodecahedral shape: twelve flat pentagonal faces, each having a circular hole in the middle which connects to the hollowed-out center. Roman dodecahedron date from the 2nd or 3rd centuries AD.


About a hundred of these dodecahedra have been found from Wales to Hungary and to the east of Italy, with most found in Germany and France. Ranging from 4cm to 11cm in size, they also vary in terms of textures. Most of them are made of bronze but some also seem to be made of stone.

Even, so many of it had been found, still no satisfying answer had accepted about what is the function of this tool. Absolutely this is not a toy, because they couldn't produce this kind of toy easily in mass production. I believe, not only the function it self leaving the mystery, the mass production it self also the mystery. Did roman had had fabric to produce bronze plate, welding technology, or maybe bronze casting equipment at that time??

Art of Modern Earth - How Crop Circle Created - Step three: Tools for creating CC - Part 2

Drawing Robot

The last sentence i mentioned in my series of cc article is about robot. So what about it. Is it true that someone using it to create crop circle ?.

Leaving Undisturbed Crop at Circle Pivot Positions Are Very Important

Undisturbed Pivot (Center of  Crop Circle)

In creation of the crop circle, it is very rare that the pivot position of circle leaving undisturbed. I am not saying that the undisturbed pivot point is a prerequisite for judging whether a crop circle is real or not, but what i actually saying is the undisturbed pivot position is very difficult to attain if it is made by human tools.

Although i haven't checked all the CC creations, but from many i have seen, the CC leaving almost common resemblance, that is the pivot position always meet one of these 2 case:

Art of Modern Earth - How Crop Circle Created - Step three: Tools for creating CC


Crop Circle Makers


The blurred picture above is the picture of several renowned crop circle artists. So, why i blur their pic??, cause if the artists of the CCs are recognized by CC admirer, it will make the CC not so attractive as before...(or EVEN MORE ATTRACTIVE !!!).

This article is not to argue whether those peoples are really the makers of all CC on earth or not, but to develop some common understanding whether their tools really worked out at the crop fields or not

Is it GPS Got Involved in Creating Crop Circles

GPS system

Actually, i want to explore about the possibility of the GPS involvement in creating Crop Circle in my later post about tools for making crop circle. But, because of recent news that claiming the GPS is the secret behind the crop circle making, so i think it is better to discuss it now.
