Since the 1600’s, crop circles have fascinated millions. Originally from the town of Hertfordshire, UK, the first circle was claimed to be by the “Mowing-Devil”, as found in an English newspaper dated back to 1678. (Gail) The image in the center of the paper depicts a small, devilish creature with a scythe, mowing two rectangular, offset circles. Modern circles form themselves in anything that will take imprint, typically in fields of oats, barley, or corn. (Pringle 5) Since the 1600’s forward, crop circles have dramatically become more complex. Many people believe that they are works of art, while some believe they are an act of vandalism. But who, or what, are forming these beautiful patterns? Some say they are natural, created by the …show more content…
(Stewart 52-53) These triple with another abnormality, found in most genuine circles: small, magnetized iron spheres. Some set in the soil, and some inside of the plant tissue itself. These were first discovered in 1993 Cherhill, England, in which many of the plants of the formation were coated with an iron glaze. (Talbott) Photomicrographs provided by the BLT Research Team closely show such evidence of these iron spheres. Using these abnormalities, Nancy Talbott of The BLT Research Team conducted a study with M.I.T. Undergraduates assigning them to create a crop circle hoax that fit all three parameters. Although the resulting crop circle did not consist of any of the abnormalities Talbott stated, the students did manage to accomplish a surprisingly geometrically accurate formation modeled after the school’s auditorium, Kresge Auditorium. (Talbott) Vandals create hoaxes, but who creates the real ones? Some believe that the source of crop circles may be from a species indigenous to earth, such as gnomes, trolls, or fairies, though absolutely no evidence supports this. In a personal interview with Maja Z. of Croatia, Maja stated that she believes crop formations are created by these beings, namely the gnomes and fairies, that she calls “elders”. “I think it’s like fairytale,” she says. She believes they are sending messages
The United States government hides aliens from the citizens. They hid area for as long as they possibly could and still refuse to allow us any insight as to what is within. They claim sightings are military testing’s or that what some saw was never there. Looking at our technological advancements over the past few decades how could this be possible.
The Woodlands Man Shirt is a garment made by the Native Americans from the great lakes region in the 18th century. This piece was traded to early French explorers in New France which extended from Louisiana to Canada. This shirt was worn by high status Native Americans made from antelope which has some form of early tattoo work done to it. The interlocking designed tattoos represent the sacred Thunderbird who is an important traditional being to Indian spirituality. Some principles of design used in this piece are rhythm and symmetrical balance and some elements of design to note are shape, visual and actual texture, and pattern. I chose these principles to analysis this piece because they are the ones that apply the most to this sculpture and can help to apply context. This also shirt has elements from Woodlands, Great Lakes, and Plains regions, and the complex designs may have been inspired by tattooing. The materials used in this shirt are both functional and ceremonial to the Native Americans but more specifically the Dakota tribe. This shirt is unique because it is only one of 35 remaining from the early 1700s making this piece really rare and hard to compare to because of how few there are available.
The program of study i chose is Agriscience. Agriscience is the application of science to agriculture. It will involve studying animals and farming techniques. Agriscience relates to small animals and large animals and eventually veterinary science. Eventually if i take my freshman year Agriscience and then the my sophomore year small animal and then junior year large than i will eventually take veterinarian science that will put me on the path to be a veterinarian. Agriscience will also give me the opportunity to work with animals and learn how to take care of them and treat their illness with medical science. Agriscience is designed for you to be able to test and see how you like the veterinarian and animal science. In Agriscience i will learn about many ways to use agriscience. Crop rotation and how to improve crops are some examples of things i
“I’ve been balled up in the cave thinking about hieroglyphics. Or, I guess, pictographs. On one of our day hikes last we, the jailers took us to a secret place where Native Americans had drawn things on a cave wall. [...] The pictographs were faded, barely even there, but John pointed them out, one by one. There was a circle, big X’s, a bird, fire, a man with wavy arms, and rain clouds. [...] He also explained that some wall art dated back to 7000 BC and said that we were in the presence of “America’s earliest storytelling documents. He said that the pictographs were painted by mixing natural minerals with plant and animal oils to make colored paints, which were then put on the walls with fingers or brushes made out of animal hair or yucca leaves.” (Van Draanen)
When looking at these woodcuts and engravings in “Going to the Source” on page 11, from Europe that represent Colonial America, you notice that these are
On a dark winter night, a UFO landed on Earth. The UFO was filled with Martians. During the night, the Martians made their way to the White House. The Martians snuck into the White House and implanted a device in the President to allow them to control him with the sound of a whistle. When the President woke up the next morning, he suddenly heard a whistle and lost complete control. The Martians were able to make the President launch rockets, launch attacks on other countries, and to spread false information to the citizens. When the President regained control, he was confused by what had happened and why or how he completed these tasks. Every morning the President would get up and the Martians would take control of him again. Everyday they
Is our universe unique? From science fiction to science fact, there is a proposal out there that suggests that there could be other universes besides our own, where all the choices you made in this life played out in alternate realities. So, instead of turning down that job offer that took you from the United States to China, the alternate universe would show the outcome if you decided to venture to Asia instead.
A unique land in Africa could hold extreme life forms. The land called Danakil doesn't look it belongs to Earth. The evaporating water makes colorful layers of volcanic minerals and salts, making the rocks look other worldly. The water it holds is deadly due to the volcanic gases, making it highly acidic. The air is filled with a toxic, yellow gas that would burn a person's airway and lungs if breathed in. This land is one of the most ungiving places on the planet.
On Saturday, March 7th, 2015 I went to the farmer’s market in Washington, DC. While at the farmer’s market I observed over a hundred people going in and out of the market, buying fruit and vegetables and also interacting with each other. In a 10 minute span I observed 32 people touching their nose, mouth, eyes, ears, and genital area in some way shape or form. Within the 10 minute span each person touched their various body parts more than twice. I also observed an additional 10 people coughing and sneezing in their palm and didn’t use hand sanitizer or washing their hands afterward.
Why do people not tell their family or friends about their problems? In Kristen D. Randle’s “The only alien on the planet,” Ginny wanted to help Michael but Michael didn’t open up to them So they started to push him to open up and made him end up at a mental hospital. We can learn that we need to open up to our friends and family and not just keep secrets so that they can help us from The Only Alien on The Planet.
Abstract: Scientists claim that other life forms do in fact exist based on probability. The conditions necessary for life are likely to be present on various other planets. Signs of possible life have been found in material from outer space. Much research has been dedicated to proving the existence of life on Mars. SETI is a program entirely dedicated to finding and establishing communication with extra terrestrials. If other life forms are found, communication with these beings will be a difficult task. Laws to protect humans from the dangers of extraterrestrial beings are already in effect. Although contact with alien beings has not yet been made, technology today may make it a reality in the near future.
Most of us have heard about the mysterious Area 51 and the rumors of the Aliens and UFOs that are hidden within. However, there is not much evidence to show that these rumors are true. On the other hand, there is a lot of evidence that shows that there are no aliens in Area 51.
Who are the creators of crop circles? This matter is probably the most sensitive and debatable topic related to crop circles. Researchers found out that there are only two possible explanations that they can think of, which are humans and aliens. According to Cropcircleresearch (2009), 80% of the crop circles were found to be made by humans, and it describes that manmade crop circles have broken crops unlike the other 20% of the crop circles that remains in mystery has bend crops. The problem we face in current society is that we are manipulated to believe extra terrestrial beings do not exist in the first place. Christianity is one of the biggest and widely believed religions
"A planet is a celestial body that revolves around a central star and does not shine by its own light " (Grolier, 1992). The only planetary system that is known to man is our
For half a century the subject of UFO has been discussed by scientists, ecologists, politicians, and common people around the world. It seems paradoxical, but the main question of their discussion concerns existence or non-existence of UFO itself, so many people is not sure that the very subject of their debate really exists. I share the opinion of those who do not believe in UFO saying that this phenomenon has not been scientifically proved, and everything its adherents operates is conjecture and fantasy, and disconnected stories of those who allegedly have seen UFO are far from scientific explanation of the event.
