5. Former Astronaut Says "Life Is All Over the Universe"

Former NASA astronaut Leroy Chiao has written a piece for Space.com expressing his "surprising" opinions that alien life is all over the universe and to think otherwise is "arrogant." Although he concludes that we may only discover microbial life on Mars in our lifetime, he claims there is enough evidence that there used to be intelligent life on the red planet to prove his theory correct. Will we soon discover life on Mars? What do you think?

4.  ABC News Helicopter Films UFO Over San Bernardino Wildfires

In a YouTube video just now posted, famous ufologist Jaime Massan presents ABC news footage showing a bright white orb gliding across the site of the San Bernardino, California wildfires on August 19th, 2016. The footage is reminiscent to videos from Japan right after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, which showed similarly bright white lights appearing to oversee the disaster and even show up at local volcanoes.

3. Gray Alien Peeks Out Behind Car in Fremont, CA

On September 11th, according to the anonymous witness testimony and video submitted to MUFON (case 79147), an small white or gray humanoid can be seen peeking out behind a car parked in Fremont, California. The witness was talking to a friend on the phone while sitting in his car when he saw strange lights and heard weird noises. He had the urge to film his rear view mirror and that's when he caught this video. He didn't spot the alien until after viewing the footage later. Hoax? Light reflection? Aliens? Do you think this video shows a sneaky alien?

2. UFOs Caught in a Lightning Storm

On September 18th, 2016 in Corsica, an island near Italy, YouTuber WTFflow was filming a lightning storm and happened to catch some UFOs on camera.  In the screenshots shown here, two balls of light can be seen coming out of the lightning bolts and then descending. Could these UFOs be examples of ball lightning, a real but still somewhat mysterious electrical phenomenon that is often correlated with thunderstorms? Many, including the witness, aren't so convinced.

1. Bank of America Says We May Be Living Inside the Matrix

Bank of America made headlines this past week with a note it made to its clients about how we could all be living in a simulated reality...ie the Matrix. Bank of America cited comments made by "experts" Elon Musk and Neil deGrasse Tyson, and stated "it is conceivable that with advancements in artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and computing power, members of future civilizations could have decided to run a simulation of their ancestors." Maybe so. Or, maybe the people working over at Bank of America are just really bored.
