Unexplained Phenomenon google doodle has people amazed. An unexplained Google logo picturing an UFO that abducts Google’s second “O” popped up in Germany, Australia and Russia, linking to the “Unexplained Phenomenon” search results. The key-phrase “Unexplained Phenomenon” is also the hottest Google trend of the moment. Can anyone explain this sudden mystery? Is Google under alien scrutiny?

Today’s Google Doodles in Austria and Germany link to the “unexplained phenomenon” (or translated into German “Rätselhaftes Phänomen”) search results pages. As you expected Google does not explain the move, but they do taunt us with even more unexplainable actions, like posting encrypted messages on their Twitter account… The message below translates “All your O are belong to us” probably referring to a meme that circulated on the Internet between 2000-2002: “All your base are belong to us.”

There is no explanation from Google – and naturally unexplained phenomenons do bring many questions. The smartest PR and advertising campaigns count on peoples’ natural curiosity. Google’s campaigns were always brilliant and they were almost always counting on the unfailing strategy we sometimes call “word-of-mouth.”

The recipe is simple: do something out of the ordinary, post it online and wait for reactions. Explain later. As I write this editorial, the encrypted message posted by Google on Twitter is only 5 hours old.

The questions are obvious: “Is it a gag? An experiment? A self-reference? Is there someone at Google laughing at us?” I’d like to add my own to the list: Is it a PR Move? And the answer: definitely.

For several decades we have been hearing the sighting of UFO’s in different parts of the world. But so far science has negated their existence.

Scientists have never been able to ascertain the existence of aliens with whom UFOs are normally associated.

It is notwithstanding the fact that aliens and UFOs have been a fodder for several sci fi films that have also adversely affected the minds of common people especially the general public in regard to UFOs.

According to reports both US and British military personnel allegedly witnessed UFOs in the forests near Rendlesham Rendlesham Forest incident and Bentwaters. This case was reported in December 1980 and took place over several nights at both the US and RAF military bases.

The Uruguayan Air Force has had an ongoing UFO investigations since 1989 and analyzed 2100 cases, of which they consider only 40 (about 2%) definitely lacking any conventional explanation. All files have recently been declassified. The unexplained cases include military jet interceptions, abductions, cattle mutilations, and physical landing trace evidence.

Colonel Ariel Sanchez, who currently heads the investigation, summarized their findings as follows: “The commission managed to determine modifications to the chemical composition of the soil where landings are reported. The phenomenon exists. It could be a phenomenon that occurs in the lower sectors of the atmosphere, the landing of aircraft from a foreign air force, up to the extraterrestrial hypothesis. It could be a monitoring probe from outer space, much in the same way that we send probes to explore distant worlds. The UFO phenomenon exists in the country. I must stress that the Air Force does not dismiss an extraterrestrial hypothesis based on our scientific analysis.”

The Air Force’s Project Blue Book files indicate that approximately 1 % of all unknown reports came from amateur and professional astronomers or other users of telescopes (such as missile trackers or surveyors).

Astronomer Clyde Tombaugh, who admitted to six UFO sightings, including three green fireballs, supported the Extraterrestrial hypothesis (ETH) for UFOs and stated he thought scientists who dismissed it without study were being “unscientific.”

Another astronomer was Lincoln LaPaz, who had headed the Air Force’s investigation into the green fireballs and other UFO phenomena in New Mexico. LaPaz reported two personal sightings, one of a green fireball, the other of an anomalous disc-like object. (Both Tombaugh and LaPaz were part of Hynek’s 1952 survey.) Hynek himself took two photos through the window of a commercial airliner of a disc-like object that seemed to pace his aircraft. Even later UFO debunker Donald Menzel filed a UFO report in 1949.

In the meantime a UFO Festival is being organized to commemorate the sighting of UFO by Norman Muscarello and Amesbury girlfriend almost exactly 44 years ago today. His brush with UFO fame may never have occurred.

A report says, “As the 18-year-old Muscarello walked from Amesbury to his Exeter home along Route 150, he encountered a craft perhaps 80 to 90 feet in diameter with brilliant, red pulsing lights around its rim. It made no noise but seemed to wobble in the sky above him, according to “Incident at Exeter,” the definitive book on the encounter”.
