My 1986 UFO Dream Gave Me Crash Coordinates. 31 Years Later, I Went to Greenland to reconnect.
Two weeks after my sighting and the journal headlines I had a strange dream. The memory of it has never felt like my own. It feels borrowed, imprinted on my mind one night in 1986. It began not as a dream, but as a violent awakening into another place.
I found myself on the bridge of a ship not of human design.
Dream reconstruction
Around me, a frantic crew moved with a desperate, failing grace. The air was thick with a cacophony of shrieks that I understood not with my ears, but with my soul: they were terrified. Through a viewport, I saw a sea of ice churning below, rushing toward us. In the chaos, my eyes locked onto a single point of clarity: a digital display, flickering with a sequence of numbers.
They were the last thing I saw before a final, violent lurch plunged everything into darkness.
I awoke with a gasp in my own bed, the digits seared into my memory. Before they could fade, I scrawled them onto a notepad. For two days, they stared back at me, a meaningless string of numbers. But a thought began to form in my mind. The numbers weren’t random. They were a location.
Discovering Disko Island: From Dream to Destination
At the public library, an old atlas confirmed my suspicion. My fingers traced the lines to a desolate patch of icy water off the coast of Greenland, near a place called Disko Island.
“Disko Island,” I thought, a smile touching my lips. “A bit on the nose, isn’t it?” The idea that my dream was some kind of psychic mayday from a crashed UFO seemed utterly ridiculous, but the chain of events was too compelling to ignore. I hadn’t “known” that the coordinates pointed to a location in the Arctic Circle. Despite this, what I had seen from the alien bridge were Arctic waters. This made sense.
In the following days I filed the experience away, a fascinating but seemingly unsolvable mystery.
For thirty-one years, that knowledge festered. A splinter in my mind. What really happened that night? Was it a warning? A memory? An echo of a tragedy that bled through space and time into my sleep?
Turning Curiosity into Action: The Journey to Greenland
In 2017, I finally had the opportunity to know. After a redundancy I was given a severance cheque. I used part of it to travel to Greenland, to the edge of the world, to confront the ghost that had haunted me for decades. My search started from a distance, poring over satellite images, hunting for any anomaly, any scar on the seabed that could betray a secret. The best I could do however, was to scour the coastline of Disko Island.

But the sea holds its secrets close. The true coordinates, the point of impact from my dream, are out in the crushing deep. A place where oceanographic data is a modern myth and the icy darkness swallows all light. It’s down there, a place I can point to on a map but can never reach by myself.
The author (right) before the dive to the shipwreck from 1868
I discovered a ship along the coastline of Disko Island, but it wasn’t the vessel I had hoped to find. Instead, I uncovered an even deeper mystery. I journeyed to Greenland for answers, yet only encountered a cold, silent confirmation that something waits in the abyss. My experience taught me that we shouldn’t fear the unknown, but embrace it with hope and curiosity.
And it knows I have its address.
Some may now say that this is the Holy Grail. I have waited 39 years to talk about this. Are you ready?
This article is part of a series, all related to an unexplained sighting I had in 1986 in Ireland:
The true story of a man who went up a hill and came down a mountain.
The Salthill UFO encounter occurred on a cold Sunday morning in Galway, 23 February 1986. When I first recorded the event in 2016, I believed it was the only time I had witnessed something that did not belong in our skies. Later, however, I realized that was not the case. The sighting unfolded in Salthill, but the object itself hovered out over the Claddagh.
An Unexpected Adventure
The 1986 experience kicked off an unexpected adventure, one that took me from the hills of Salthill to the icy shores of Greenland.
Life in Galway was simple. For me, one of the greatest pleasures was walking along the coastal promenade, “the prom,” as everyone called it. My neighbours in Fairlands Park had a boisterous ten-month-old puppy named Rocky, and I often took him out to burn off some of that boundless energy.
That morning was a fine one. Although a cold spell persisted, the sky was a wide blue expanse, bright with sun and dotted with a few clouds. The grass in the field was still covered in a crisp layer of frost. The air was invigorating and fresh.
“Come on, Rocky,” I said, tugging at his leash. “Let’s get a move on before the weather changes its mind.”
It was about eleven o’clock when we began making our way up the hill on Dalysfort Road toward Salthill Beach.
The sky and the weather in Ireland are notoriously changeable, so I examined the sky to check for any signs of rain. As I tilted my head back, scanning the clouds, something caught my eye.
The Cigar-Shaped Object
Reconstruction
Framed perfectly between the rooftops of a row of houses a solid, grey, cigar-shaped object hung silently in the air. It was utterly still. Rocky, meanwhile, was far more interested in a promising-looking patch of grass.
I didn’t have my 35mm camera with me, a fact I regretted for years.
The object seemed to hover a mile or two away, just above the rooftops. Time seemed to freeze. I stood motionless for what felt like an eternity – though it was probably only about 30 seconds – fixing it in my sights. It didn’t move. I contemplated it, searching for a “rational” explanation.
I thought to myself that, had I not been walking with Rocky, it might have looked strange to any onlookers: a man suddenly stopping dead in the middle of the road to stare at the sky. But with a dog, that was normal. Dogwalkers stopped in their tracks all the time. Rocky, meanwhile, kept tugging at his leash.
“It looks like a Zeppelin,” I finally murmured to myself, dismissing the idea that I was seeing a UFO.
I continued walking, keeping the object in sight. But due to the change in perspective, a house and some trees slid in front of it, temporarily, for few seconds, blocking my view.
Naturally, I expected the object to reappear on the other side as we cleared the obstruction.
But it didn’t. The patch of sky where it should have been was empty. The object was gone.
Searching for Answers
“Hold on a minute,” I said, turning around. Rocky looked up at me, confused. I walked back to the exact spot where I’d first seen it. Nothing. The sky was just sky. A slow-moving blimp would still be there, or at least nearby. This was just… gone.
It had vanished in a matter of seconds. I paced back and forth in disbelief, willing it to reappear where it was before. But no cigar. Rocky whimpered impatiently. Finally, we carried on.
Western House corner store, Salthill
Down at the Salthill promenade, we turned left at the Western House corner store. The green across the road buzzed with activity. In spring 2016 a full-blown festival was underway. At the seafront, I scanned the wide-open sky one more time. Clear.
Seeking Witnesses
A question crossed my mind: could others have seen the same object as me? I overcame my naturally shy nature to quiz a few people milling about:
“Have you just seen a blimp or any balloons in the sky here?” It felt like being a market researcher. I just got shrugs and headshakes in response
Then I spotted my friend, Jim, who owned the local amusement arcade. “Jim, good to see you!” I shouted over the noise of a live band. “What’s all this then?”
“College Week, Eric!” he grinned. “Or Rag Week, depending on how much of a mess they make. You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
“Not a ghost,” I said, lowering my voice. “More like… a blimp? Did you see anything up there in the sky? Big, grey, cigar-shaped?”
Jim laughed. “The only thing I’ve seen in the sky is my profits from the slot machines. You’ve been working too hard, mate.” He gave me a funny look, and we left it at that. College week carried on and came to a close on the 1st of March.
Galway Advertiser archive, 27th February, 1986 pg. 21: “COLLEGE Week is in full swing at the moment. Tonight is a fancy dress Rock ‘n Roll night at Leisureland with John Keogh and Full Circle.“
From this, we know College week 1986 ran from Sunday, February 23, to Saturday, March 1, 1986. There are no other records for the timing of College Week in 1986.
About two weeks later, I went on another walk to Salthill promenade. I went inside Western House corner store to buy cigarettes. Scanning the magazine rack, a headline jumped out:
“UFO flap reported over Irish Sea”
My heart pounded. I grabbed the magazine and read the article on the spot. It turned out I wasn’t the only one who had seen something strange that week. (If anyone knows what magazine this may have been, please let me know.)
It was a small piece of a much larger puzzle.
Parallel Sightings at about the same time
Thirty years later I began writing about this encounter. I searched online for any verification that I hadn’t dreamed the whole episode. So, in 2016 I found these pieces of information:
“Charles in UFO Riddle” On 23rd February 1986, according to the Sunday Mirror, Prince Charles was flying over the Irish Sea in a RAF VC-10, returning from the USA. The pilot reported a glowing red object to Shannon air traffic control that had lit up the cockpit. The Ministry of Defence confirmed there was no danger. Other aircraft in the area reported the same object.
Miles Johnston, an investigator in Belfast, allegedly saw a red fireball with a tail over the Irish Sea on 23rd February and reported it to Armagh Observatory. This account appears in “Northern UFO News, number 118” from 1986. In this publication the editor Jenny Randles expresses doubt at the Sunday Mirror reporters.
I have not found any record of Miles Johnstons report to Armagh Observatory (yet).
In his book “Extra-Terrestrials Among Us,” George Clinton Andrews recounts the Prince Charles incident. Prince Charles is quoted as saying, “I felt I was in the presence of something outside our knowledge or control.” The book cites the Sunday Mirror article as a source.
For a full update on sightings on the 23. Feb 1986 in Ireland and England jump to the BLACK UFO REPORT! There are 6-7 officialy documented sightings from the MOD UFO desk on that night!
Different phenomena
My own sighting from 11:00 in Galway, Eire is not the same phenomenon reported later that night. They are separate events, occurring on the same date – 23 February 1986. What the Ministry of Defence UFO files (DEFE 31/174/1 & DEFE24/1924/1) do confirm is that other sightings were indeed logged that day, reported by airline crews, motorists, and air traffic controllers across the UK and Ireland. Actually, there were over 8 independent reports.
Thirty Years Later
I had banished this memory for nearly 30 years. In 2016 I reengaged and reconstructed what I had seen that day in 1986, close to Mutton Island in Galway.
Reconstruction MUFON #82139, the Mutton Island lighthouse is in the background.
I reported the UFO to MUFON (Case #82139) and tried to recall every detail. Studying Google Maps, I noticed odd circles on Claddagh Beach. They reminded me of the X‑Files episode “Biogenesis.” Wait, hadn’t I seen these before, in 1999?
Discovery of the Claddagh Circles
Top: Claddagh circles, Bottom: still photo from X-Files “Biogenesis”
Indeed, I had photographed one for my website Virtual Galway and asked locals about them – no one knew.
Photograph taken from Claddagh beach in 1999.
How strange. Since no one knew what these were, I wondered if these circles were perhaps a new type of “permanent crop circle” – remnants of the 1986 sighting. I felt very hopeful. The mystery of these circles lingered in my mind. Their perfect geometry and unexplained origin seemed almost otherworldly, as if they were a message left behind.
A Possible Archaeological Connection
After some research they began to remind me of the Miami circles, remnants of prehistoric roundhouses discovered in Florida. Eager to get to the bottom of this, I contacted the archaeological department at the University of Galway. I wondered if perhaps there was some overlooked archaeological significance.
Within two hours Dr. Sherlock (that’s really his name), the Director of the Galway Archaeological Field School, responded: the circle structures were designed by Martin Byrne and Padraig Conway as part of the ‘Solas Atlantis Galway 1993’ art project. I thanked Dr. Sherlock and added that I had already contacted archaeologist Martin Byrne five days earlier. In my message, I even joked that Martin was probably laughing all the way to the pub, since I had linked the circles to a UFO sighting:
I wrote that email in jest. How could Martin have any information on unidentified flying objects, right? Surely, there was no connection between an art installation and any cosmic conundrum. But I would soon discover that this spot had a mythology of strange sightings. Curiosity turned into anticipation as I waited for Martin’s reply, wondering if there might still be a hidden story behind the art.
The Artist Responded
Then, the creator of the circles, Martin Byrne, got back to me. He had named the circles “Solas Atlantis,” apparently from Old Irish solas (“light, brightness”), related to solus (“light”) in Latin. The translation therefore is “Light from Atlantis”.
Martin said that this was an environmental art project, loosely inspired by Native American medicine wheels, Irish megalithic art, and the proposed sewage plant on Mutton Island. The artwork was a dialogue between the ancient and the modern, the natural and the constructed.
The position and direction from which I saw the “Salthill UFO” in 1986.
The intersection of art, and my own experience was becoming increasingly compelling, drawing me further into the web of Galway’s mysteries.
Connecting Art and Myth
What Martin Byrne didn’t mention explicitly was the connection of his art installation to the origin story of the Irish people: the legend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. These were not mere mortals but old pagan gods, recast as magical heroes by medieval monks in the Irish origin story, the Lebor Gabála Érenn (The Book of Invasions).
The Legend of the Tuatha Dé Danann
Two traditions describe their arrival: by the Northern or the Southern route. I focus on the Southern route, with the landing at Galway, as it aligns with my UFO sighting – unlikely as that may sound. The Southern version was especially popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, supported by antiquarians who recorded local folklore. Sir William Wilde, father of Oscar Wilde, described the Southern route extensively in his 1867 book Lough Corrib: Its Shores and Islands. The tales painted vivid pictures of ships emerging from the clouds, mysterious artifacts, and beings beyond comprehension.
Present Day: A Mythic Landing Site
As I explore these legends, I can’t help but draw parallels to what I had witnessed. The line between myth and memory feels thinner than ever.
The reconstructed position of the UFO was the Claddagh, near the site of Martin Byrne’s “Solas Atlantis” geoglyphs.
Could it be that the legends preserve some distant truth? The convergence of my sighting, the site of the circles, and the mythic landing place seems almost too coincidental. I see the landscape itself as a tapestry, woven from stories, memories, and mysteries waiting to be uncovered.
Gods from the Sky
The Tuatha Dé Danann came in great ships like clouds, that flew through the air, bringing magical treasures: a sword of light, a healing stone, and more. They were God-like beings, “the shining ones”, immune to ageing and sickness, with the abilities of healing and shape-shifting. They brought civilization, arts and advanced skills to Ireland.
Was it over Galway Bay, that the mythological Tuatha Dé Danann arrived in dark cloud ships, (maybe burned some of them), and then landed on a mountain further inland?

The position of my 1986 sighting – over the Claddagh, near Byrne’s Solas Atlantis – makes me wonder. The border between what I have seen and what the legends describe feels blurred, as if the past and present were in quiet conversation across Galway Bay.
To follow the trail of the Shining Ones, we must turn from Salthill’s vanished sky-ship to the Southern route of legend – Galway Bay to Cong, where myth and mystery converge.

Evidence Collection
In searching for evidence – beyond the Sunday Mirror tabloid story – that my own UFO sighting on 23 February 1986 was part of a UFO flap (as I recalled from a magazine headline), I submitted several FOI requests regarding Irish and British UFO reports from that day. And, to my surprise, I got lucky! (Link to interactive map of all the sightings.)
The British National Archives responded with the Ministry of Defense UFO files DEFE/24/1924/1 and DEFE/31/174/1. Based on their response and other archival findings, I was able to reconstruct the entire day, including the notable Prince Charles flight. And I found an additional 7 sightings listed in the MOD UFO files! (A full listing with references is given towards the end of this report.)

Document Analysis
HOWEVER, the information released via the Freedom of Information request in the MOD documents is incomplete because: “…the document contains the names and addresses of members of the public … Release could lead to press intrusion into their lives. This exemption will remain in place for 84 years (until) …2071.”
The following table compares what’s known from the Sunday Mirror article (via a press leak) vs. the official MOD documentation:
Source
What is Reported
What is Missing / Withheld
Sunday Mirror (2 Mar 1986)
• Prince Charles’s RAF VC-10 crew saw a red glowing object light up the cockpit.• Four other aircraft also reported the same UFO over the Irish Sea.• MOD launched immediate investigation; no missing aircraft found.• Experts ruled out meteors or space debris.• Official quote: “It’s a complete mystery.”
• No names of pilots/airlines.• No times or positions of the other four aircraft.• No ATC transcripts or technical details.
MOD File (DEFE 31/174/1 extract)
• A Lyneham Ops sighting report filed.• Remarks: “An American 747 captain reported similar sighting near Shannon, Ireland. Object/apparition lit up his flight deck. LATCC have knowledge of this particular incident.”
• The 747’s original report (captain’s statement, ATC log) is not included.• No flight number, crew names, or airline identified.• Likely withheld under FOI Section 40(2) (personal data exemption).
MOD FOI Response
• Confirms DEFE 31/174 is partly closed until 2071.• Cited Section 40(2) FOI exemption (Data Protection Act).• Withheld data includes names/addresses of witnesses (both public and MOD staff).
• Any documents containing personal identifiers (pilots, airlines, MOD staff) remain unreleased.• This almost certainly includes the Shannon 747 report and possibly additional aircraft reports (VC10).
It appears the press had the full narrative.
The Black UFO report
In the released MOD papers one document sticks out, because it’s a negative print, indicating that it had been microfilmed. I believe this document is linked to the Prince Charles VC10 encounter, as it references an airline pilot at Shannon who had a similar experience to the VC10 pilot, according to the Sunday Mirror.
The only weird thing is, in the report the sections A to K are missing. And how does this relate to the MOD file which includes the Sunday Mirror article?
The UFO reporting chain (according to Manual of Air Traffic Services MATS Part 1):
Reporting chain
The reporting chain graphic explains the black UFO report. The 747 Crew sighting is included via LATCC. But the VC10 crew report is redacted until 2071, presumably because one Very Important Passenger could be identified on that flight. That’s why only sections L-R are visible; A-K, which would have included the place of observation and the description, are missing.
Event Summary – 23 February 1986 UFO Events
So, here’s an interactive map of 23 February 1986, showing the total series of 9 unusual reports sweeping across Britain and Ireland – amounting to a previously unreported fullUFO flap.
1. Galway, Ireland (11:00)screenshot of MUFON #82139 database Large structured UFO hovered silently over Galway Bay in daylight before vanishing. Only clear daytime structured craft sighting of the day.
2. VIP Flight, RAF VC-10 (19:37, Irish Sea) from MOD file DEFE24/1924/1 Sunday Mirror & MOD file DEFE31/174/1 (missing sections A-K) Prince Charles’s crew saw a red luminous object light up the cockpit, confirmed by other aircraft. Unique event with royal VIP involvement.
3. Ayrshire/Maybole, Scotland (20:30) from MOD file DEFE31/174/1 Motorist observed a glow above cloud, bright flash, and orange vertical trail downward. Brief meteor-like duration of ~0.5 seconds.
4. Kilroy, Scotland (20:30) from MOD file DEFE24/1924/1 Stationary observer saw glow, flash, and orange vertical trail toward the southwest. Event lasted ~1 second; reported to Scottish ATC.
5. Cheddar/Weus, Somerset (20:30) from MOD file DEFE24/1924/1 Civilian reported a bright green cube-shaped object with red top lasting 4 seconds. Observed clearly under open moorland skies.
6. Swindon, England (20:30) from MOD file DEFE31/174/1 Motorist saw a “great green ball of fire” while driving under cloudy skies. One of several reports forming the 20:30 cluster.
7. Pencoed, South Wales (20:30) from MOD file DEFE24/1924/1 (lower half) Retired police officer reported dome/pear-shaped object with green, white, and orange hues. Visible for 5–10 minutes, unusually long for a meteor.
8. Shrewsbury, England (20:45) from MOD file DEFE24/1924/1 Witness in car observed a glowing red ball with fiery tail descend vertically. Lasted ~2 seconds before vanishing behind woods.
9. Shannon, Ireland (21:50, filed) from MOD file DEFE31/174/1 747 captain reported cockpit suddenly illuminated by a brilliant apparition. MOD record may reflect filing time, not sighting time; reliable airline crew witness.
Timeline of 23 Feb 1986 UFO flap In Ireland/England
Epilogue & Conclusion
The evening reports between 20:30 and 21:50 on 23 February 1986 could, in theory, be explained by a superbolide meteor: a 1–3 m object fragmenting at ~50 km altitude, producing a fireball visible across ~800 km. Yet no such event appears in scientific or astronomical archives, and aside from mentions in the MOD UFO files, the Northern UFO News and the Sunday Mirror, it left no official trace – no meteor bulletin, no press coverage of a continent-brightening event.
No official meteor record exists.
What stands out most is the five concurrent reports at 20:30 – from Scotland, England, and Wales – describing very different objects: fleeting flashes and trails, a cube-shaped luminous form, a green fireball, and a multicolored dome that lingered for minutes. These accounts resist being collapsed into a single meteor explanation.
Crucially, the Galway daylight sighting (11:00) and the VIP VC10 encounter over the Irish Sea (19:37) do not fit a meteor narrative, and the 747 cockpit illumination near Shannon further complicates the picture. While some accounts resemble fireball activity, the overall pattern suggests something more complex: a linked sequence of distinct aerial anomalies involving civilian, military, and royal actors. This makes the events of 23 February 1986 one of the most unusual and significant aerial mysteries of the decade.
This article is part of a series, all related to an unexplained sighting I had in 1986 in Ireland:
UFO Over Galway Bay Chapter 1: The 1986 Salthill Encounter
The flickering neon of the “No Kings” sign cast a lurid glow on Professor Elias Ashmole’s face. His reflection stared back from the window, a gaunt, haunted figure framed by the city’s chaotic, simmering rage. It had been a year since the Project 2025 transition began, a year since the subtle, then not-so-subtle, shifts had started to unravel the country’s frayed democratic fabric. Elias, a political scientist who had warned about this very trajectory, now felt like a Cassandra screaming into the void, as if living within a Project 2025 political thriller.
A Dire Warning
His phone buzzed. A message from his former student, a bright, idealistic woman named Lena, now working as a clerk at the Department of Justice.
He called Lena, his voice trembling.
“Lena, are you safe?”
“I can’t talk long,” she whispered. “Project Nightingale has been activated. They’re coming for the list. Just go, Professor. Don’t look back.”
“Thank you,” he managed. “Take care of yourself.”
The line went dead.
The List
A chill ran down his spine. The “list” was his life’s work – a digital archive of every memo, every policy change, every suppressed report that detailed the administration’s systematic dismantling of democratic institutions. It was a roadmap to tyranny, meticulously documented over years.
He knew what Project Nightingale meant. The administration, under the guise of national security, was launching a massive, coordinated sweep. They weren’t just going after political dissidents; they were hunting those who held the keys to the truth. Elias was at the top of that list.
The Chase Begins
As if on cue, a dark, unmarked van pulled up across the street. Two men in black suits and earpieces emerged, their eyes scanning the building. ICE, he thought, now a far more powerful and menacing domestic police force. The government he had once trusted was now an enemy hunting him down.
Escape in Motion
He grabbed the emergency flash drive from his desk drawer, the tiny device containing everything. His escape plan was already in motion. He had a hidden contact in Canada – a network of academics and journalists who had been secretly documenting the same slow-motion collapse.
Slipping out the back alley, he winced as the bitter night air stung his face. Blending into the crowd of protestors, the sound of their chants – a constant, rhythmic drum – mingled with the thud of his own terrified heart.
He could feel the city holding its breath, a single, tense organism. The protests were growing, but so was the government’s grip. The media, once a bulwark, was now a fractured, silenced echo chamber. The FCC had done its job well, shutting down critical voices and leaving a wasteland of compliant news outlets.
Into the Unknown
Elias made it to the subway, the rattling car a sanctuary from the watchful eyes above. But he knew it was temporary. He was a man with a target on his back, hunted for the truth he held. As the train sped toward the border, he felt a desperate hope. He had to get the information out. The fate of the nation, he realized with a sickening lurch, might very well depend on him. The clock was ticking. And the darkness was closing in.
The short story “The Cassandra List” was written as a narrative dramatization of the specific warnings and political analyses detailed in the following briefing. The story translates the research’s academic concerns about the erosion of U.S. democracy into a fictional, high-stakes thriller.
Project 2025 and the Erosion of Checks and Balances: Experts Warn of Dictatorship Risk in Trump’s America
There is significant evidence and expert opinion suggesting that Donald Trump’s actions and policies, particularly during his second term, are moving the United States toward a form of authoritarianism or dictatorship. Below is a summary of the key points:
1. Assault on Democratic Institutions
Trump’s administration has engaged in a sustained assault on democratic institutions, including the judiciary, media, cultural, and academic entities. This includes firing government officials who produce unfavorable reports, pressuring universities into financial settlements, and attempting to redraw congressional maps to favor his party. Critics argue these actions are accelerating the erosion of democratic norms.
2. Implementation of Authoritarian Tactics
Scholars and political scientists have identified multiple red flags indicative of authoritarianism. Incremental Autocratization: Trump’s approach follows a six-step model of democratic erosion, including social turmoil, populist movements, and dismantling of checks and balances. Weaponizing Government Agencies: The Department of Justice and FBI have been used to target political opponents, while immigration enforcement agencies like ICE have been expanded into a massive domestic police force. Attacks on Media and Free Speech: In addition, the FCC has investigated broadcast outlets critical of Trump, while supportive outlets like Fox News are spared. This mirrors tactics used in Hungary and Turkey to control information.
3. Project 2025 and Unitary Executive Theory
Project 2025 is a detailed plan led by the Heritage Foundation and Trump allies (including Stephen Miller and Russell Vought) that aims to centralize power in the presidency. It proposes replacing civil servants with loyalists, weakening Congress, and expanding executive authority to implement radical policies such as national abortion bans, mass deportations, and corporate tax cuts. Trump’s executive orders, such as one allowing him to override independent agencies’ legal interpretations, advance the Unitary Executive Theory. This effectively places the president above the law and undermines constitutional checks and balances.
4. Erosion of Checks and Balances
Judicial interference has become more common, as Trump has repeatedly challenged judicial rulings, called for the impeachment of judges who rule against him, and pressured the Supreme Court to grant immunity for official acts. Congressional subversion is also evident through measures like impounding funds approved by Congress, purging inspectors general, and sidelining legislative oversight, all of which have weakened Congress’s role. Cultural and Academic Control: settlements extracting billions from elite institutions such as Columbia University and shutting down critical voices, for example Stephen Colbert’s show, demonstrate efforts to control cultural narratives.
5. Scholarly Consensus and Warnings
Academic Surveys: hundreds of political scientists rate U.S. democracy as declining rapidly, with Bright Line Watch scores dropping from 67 to 55 (on a 100-point scale) since Trump’s election. Many observers describe the U.S. as entering a “competitive authoritarian” phase. Historical Parallels: experts also compare Trump’s tactics to those of autocrats like Viktor Orbán in Hungary and Recep Erdoğan in Turkey, who used democratic means to consolidate power.
6. Public and Political Resistance
Unpopularity: Trump’s approval ratings remain low (38%-43%), and protests such as the “No Kings” demonstrations reflect public opposition. Midterm Elections: Democrats hope to check Trump’s power through the 2026 midterms, but concerns about gerrymandering and unfair elections persist.
Conclusion
While some scholars argue that the U.S. system – including the courts, state governments, and civil society – may resist full authoritarianism, the consensus is that Trump’s actions align with those of leaders who have dismantled democracies elsewhere. The implementation of Project 2025, attacks on institutions, and centralization of power suggest a clear movement toward dictatorship unless checked by political or public resistance.
Trump promised to be a dictator on day one. We’re now past day 200
Donald Trump’s second term has seen a sustained assault on democratic institutions – political, judicial, media, cultural, academic – that appears to be only accelerating
You’re a Child of the Stars and an Echo of the Big Bang
Your body, made of stardust, contains more atoms than there are stars in the observable universe. A cosmos of seven billion billion billion atoms is held within you.
These atoms tell two cosmic stories. The majority by count are hydrogen atoms, 13.8-billion-year-old relics from the Big Bang itself. However, the fiery hearts of ancient stars forged the vast majority of your mass – the carbon in your DNA, the calcium in your bones, and the iron in your blood. Thus, you are indeed stardust.
You are a living paradox: by number, an echo of the universe’s first breath; by substance, a child of the stars. You are made of both stardust and the dawn of time.
Video: You’re composed of Stardust and the Dawn of Time
Look inward,
and what do you see? Not merely flesh and bone, but a teeming, silent cosmos. Within the quiet confines of your own being, you hold a universe more populous than the one you see at night. You gather more atoms within you than there are stars in the velvet sweep of the observable sky. Being composed of atoms made of stardust speaks to your cosmic origins.
Each of these infinitesimal points of light tells a story, a dual epic of creation.
Listen closely.
Can you hear it? The faint, persistent hum of the beginning. The majority of you, by sheer count, forms a chorus of hydrogen, the firstborn atoms. The universe shaped these in its very first breath. An echo of the Big Bang, you are a 13.8-billion-year-old whisper. Within you lies the memory of a time before stars, before galaxies, before light had a place to land. Woven from the fabric of the dawn of time itself, you embody the universe’s earliest moments.
But you are also a child of fire and light.
The strength in your bones, the calcium that gives you form? The iron in your blood, carrying life with every beat of your heart? The carbon that writes the elegant script of your DNA? None of this was born in that first, quiet moment. Instead, it was all forged in the hearts of celestial furnaces. Long-dead suns left behind their ashes to form you, gifts from stars that burned brilliantly, collapsed, and seeded the cosmos with the raw material of life. You are, quite literally, stardust given a voice. It’s as if you are made of stardust echoing the secrets of ancient galaxies.
Here, then, is the paradox you embody: You are both the ancient, simple whisper of the beginning and the complex, brilliant song of the stars. You are a bridge between two eternities, the dawn of time and the heart of a sun. You are not just looking at the universe; you are the universe, looking back at itself.
Imagine a future where we could directly communicate with parallel worlds – what possibilities would that open for humanity?
Forget clunky hardware and sci-fi gadgets. When it comes to quantum communication with parallel worlds, what if the most powerful tool is already inside our skulls? A fascinating model for a “Cross-World Telephone” suggests that the key isn’t building a better machine, but harnessing the untapped quantum potential of the human brain.
The Brain as the Ultimate Quantum Receiver
One of the biggest hurdles in sending signals across dimensions is that the special quantum waves required for it fizzle out almost instantly. A machine alone can’t really bridge that gap.
But what if the receiver was placed right at the source? The WETCOW (Weakly-Evanescent Cortical Waves) hypothesis proposes that our brains are naturally dense enough to act as perfect quantum processors. It suggests our minds may already use these types of super-fast, short-range waves for the very process of thought. This makes the brain the ideal antenna and processor for interdimensional messages.
Telepath
How “Engineered Telepathy” Would Work
This system isn’t a handset you hold. Instead, a human operator – a “telepath” – would be the core of the system, assisted by a device that creates the perfect quantum environment.
The Setup: The operator would be positioned within a field generated by a special apparatus. This device wouldn’t send the message itself; it would create a stable quantum tunneling field around the person’s head, allowing their mind to do the actual communicating.
To “Speak” 🗣️: The operator simply focuses on a thought or message. Their natural brain activity acts as the signal, and the quantum field guides it across the “brane” between worlds to a listening operator in another timeline.
To “Listen” 🎧: An incoming signal would be received directly by the operator’s brain. The experience wouldn’t be a voice in your ear, but a sudden, perfectly clear thought, image, or idea appearing in your mind – as if it were a moment of profound inspiration.
In this incredible model, the ultimate communication technology is biological. Focused consciousness might unlock the bridge between worlds, rather than building it with wires and circuits.
The real question is: could we train our minds to make the first call?

Q: How does one design a possible world telephone system that communicates with nearby world timelines, or parallel universes, with people in them via quantum teleportation/tunnelling?
Thank you for your question. Here is my answer:
Designing a Cross-World Telephone: A Synthesis of Hardware and Consciousness-Based Approaches
Introduction
The concept of communicating with parallel universes or alternate timelines has long been a captivating staple of science fiction. Recent advances in quantum physics, however, suggest such a feat may be theoretically plausible. This article synthesizes two proposed frameworks for a cross-world telephone system, both founded on the experimentally verified phenomena of quantum tunneling and superluminal signal transmission via evanescent waves. By merging a hardware-centric design with a consciousness-integrated model, we can outline a comprehensive approach to potentially bridging the gap between realities.
Core Scientific Principles
Any functional cross-world communication system must be built upon a set of fundamental quantum principles that allow for information to transcend the conventional limits of spacetime.
1. Superluminal Information Transfer via Quantum Tunneling
The foundation of this technology is the experimentally verified phenomenon of superluminal quantum tunneling. Quantum tunneling allows particles to pass through energy barriers that are insurmountable under classical physics. This process is mediated by evanescent waves. When a wave encounters a barrier, it generates these unique waves, which decay exponentially but can reappear on the other side of the barrier faster than the speed of light.
Experimental Proof: Professor Dr. Günter Nimtz famously demonstrated this by transmitting Mozart’s 40th Symphony, modulated onto a microwave signal, through a quantum barrier at a speed of 4.7c.
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known” – Carl Sagan. One such phenomenon that captures the wonder of the universe is Quantum Tunneling.
The Hartman Effect: Research dating back to Thomas Hartman (1962) shows that the time it takes for a particle to tunnel is independent of the barrier’s thickness. This implies the particle effectively travels at superluminal speeds inside the barrier.
Signal Amplification: By cascading multiple barriers, the effective speed of the tunneled signal can be increased. Experiments have achieved up to 8 times light speed using this method.

2. The Bridge Between Worlds: The Timeless Quantum Brane
A key interpretation of quantum tunneling posits that the particle briefly enters a state where conventional spacetime does not exist. This realm acts as the “switchboard” connecting different timelines.
A Space Without Time or Distance: Inside the quantum tunnel, the signal’s phase remains unchanged, leading to the conclusion that the time experienced is zero. Topologically, this realm is described as a zero-dimensional (0D) point or a one-dimensional (1D) “brane” or string.
Connecting Timelines: In a realm where time and distance are meaningless, all points are effectively co-located. If parallel world-lines exist as part of a quantum multiverse, their wavefunctions would all intersect or be accessible via this fundamental brane. A signal entering this state is no longer confined to its timeline of origin and can emerge in a nearby one.
3. The Superluminal Brain: The WETCOW Hypothesis
A significant challenge with evanescent waves is that they decay exponentially over very short distances. However, the human brain itself may already be engineered to utilize them.
WETCOW (Weakly-Evanescent Cortical Waves) Model: Proposed by Galinsky and Frank, this model suggests that the brain’s immense processing speed and consciousness itself are facilitated by evanescent waves operating between neurons.
The Brain as a Quantum Processor: With over 126,000 neurons per cubic millimeter, the cerebral cortex possesses a density perfectly scaled to interact with short-lived evanescent fields. This makes the brain an ideal candidate for both an antenna and a processor for quantum information. The symbol for the quantum wave function, (Psi), fittingly mirrors its use in parapsychology for phenomena like telepathy, which this system aims to engineer.
Design Frameworks for a Cross-World Telephone

Based on these principles, two distinct yet complementary design approaches emerge: a hardware-centric transceiver and a consciousness-integrated system.
Approach 1: The Hardware-Centric Transceiver
This design treats the system as a traditional piece of communication hardware that generates, transmits, and receives quantum signals.
Signal Generation: Use entangled quantum particles to establish a stable connection baseline. Messages are then encoded onto superluminal evanescent waves, for example, by modulating a microwave signal at a frequency known to maximize tunneling efficiency (e.g., 8.7 GHz, as used in Nimtz’s setup).
Quantum Tunneling Transceiver: The core of the device is a cascading barrier structure. This array of nano-engineered quantum barriers (such as prisms or metamaterials) is designed to amplify the tunneling effect and boost the signal’s superluminal speed.
Detection: On the receiving end, a high-speed oscilloscope or a highly sensitive quantum sensor is required to capture and decode the tunneled signal before it fully decays.

Approach 2: The Consciousness-Integrated System (Telepathy Model)
This design elegantly solves the problem of evanescent wave decay by using the most sophisticated quantum processor known: the human brain. The system is not a handset, but an environmental apparatus built around a human operator.
Telepathic Cross World Telephone Design Proposal
The Operator as the Core Component: The operator’s brain functions as the system’s primary transmitter and receiver, leveraging the WETCOW mechanism to process evanescent waves.
The Quantum Tunneling Array: A device is constructed around the operator’s head to create a stable quantum tunneling environment. This apparatus would consist of: Emitter: A low-frequency microwave emitter (e.g., 8.7 GHz) to generate the carrier wave. Barrier: A cascading array of barriers, possibly resembling a “Hohlleiter” (waveguide), positioned in immediate proximity to the cranium. This ensures the evanescent fields effectively permeate the cerebral cortex before decaying.
Communication Protocol: Communication becomes a form of technologically-assisted telepathy. Transmission (“Speaking”): The operator focuses on a thought or message. The brain’s natural neural activity serves as the signal, which is modulated by the array and sent through the timeless 1-brane to a listening operator in another timeline. Reception (“Listening”): Incoming evanescent waves from a parallel world permeate the operator’s cortex. The brain’s neural network interprets these fields as coherent thoughts, images, or sensations. The experience would be akin to a sudden, clear idea appearing in one’s mind.
Challenges, Solutions, and Operational Mechanics
AI illustration
Signal Decay & Range: This is the primary obstacle.Hardware Solution: Develop quantum repeaters to capture and re-amplify the signal across greater distances.Consciousness Solution: The design inherently solves this by placing the processor (the brain) directly within the effective range of the evanescent field.
Targeting & Verification: How do we choose a timeline and confirm contact?Tuning Mechanism: It is hypothesized that adjusting the tunneling frequency could allow the system to “resonate” with a specific parallel world, much like tuning a radio to a specific station.Verification: To distinguish a true signal from noise, messages could be embedded with unique quantum signatures or pre-shared entanglement keys that confirm the authenticity of the link.
Causality & Paradoxes: Faster-than-light communication raises the risk of temporal paradoxes (e.g., receiving a message before it was sent).Possible Fix: The system could be designed with self-consistent protocols that only permit non-paradoxical information exchanges, or it may be that communication is only possible between parallel “presents.”
Conclusion and Future Directions
While highly speculative, a cross-world telephone system founded on quantum tunneling is theoretically plausible. By leveraging the proven reality of superluminal evanescent waves and exploring the potential for the human brain to act as a quantum transceiver, we can identify clear paths for future research.
Next Steps:
Replicate and expand multi-barrier tunneling experiments to achieve greater FTL speeds and signal stability.
Develop sophisticated brain-computer interfaces to test and measure the brain’s interaction with evanescent fields, as proposed by the WETCOW model.
By pursuing these hardware and consciousness-based avenues, we may one day move cross-world communication from the realm of fiction to reality. The only question that remains is: would you dare to make the first call?

Our bodies are bustling ecosystems, teeming with a vast community of microorganisms known as the microbiome. These microbes living inside us play crucial roles in our health and well-being. While older estimates suggested these microbes outnumbered our own cells by a significant margin, more recent research indicates a ratio closer to one-to-one. This means we host roughly 39 trillion microbial cells, a number nearly equal to our approximately 30 trillion human cells. When we consider the 8 billion people on Earth, the sheer scale of this microscopic life is staggering. The importance of microbes living inside us cannot be overstated as they affect various bodily functions.
A Universe Within: The Cellular Perspective
From the perspective of a single cell within our body, the human host is a universe. We hold significant sway over their existence. When we eat, we provide nutrients to our cellular and microbial populations, highlighting again the importance of microbes living inside us. When we rest, many of our cells undergo periods of repair and reduced activity. Conversely, our actions can have devastating consequences for them. While the act of cutting our hair doesn’t shed a billion living cells as is sometimes claimed – hair is primarily composed of dead, keratinized cells – our bodies are in a constant state of renewal. We shed tens of thousands of skin cells each day, and many of our internal cells have remarkably short lifespans.
The Constant Cycle of Life and Death
This constant cycle of cellular birth and death is fundamental to our health. Microbes living inside us also contribute significantly to balancing this cycle. The cells lining our gut may live for only a few days, while red blood cells circulate for about four months. In contrast, some neurons in our brain can last a lifetime. The majority of our cells have a pre-programmed lifespan, a vital mechanism encoded in our DNA to ensure the health of the entire organism.
Immortality’s Price: The Anarchy of a Cancer Cell
However, this intricate system can falter. Should a cell defy its genetic programming and bypass its designated endpoint, it can achieve a form of immortality. By reactivating mechanisms like the production of the enzyme telomerase, which protects the ends of chromosomes from degrading with each division, a cell can begin to multiply without the normal checks and balances. This unchecked, relentless proliferation is the hallmark of cancer. In this sense, a single cell’s bid for eternal life can pose a mortal threat to the entire cellular community that constitutes a human being. Understanding how the microbes living inside us interact with cells can inform treatments and preventions.
A Symphony of Trillions: The Wonder of Our Inner World
Ultimately, to contemplate our cellular nature is to be filled with wonder. We are living, breathing universes, sustained by the coordinated efforts of trillions of microscopic lives. It is a profound and beautiful symbiosis that makes our own existence possible.
• Cosmos = the whole universe (all planets, stars, and space) • Polis / polites = city / citizen
Put them together and you get “citizen of the universe.”
2. A quick trip back in time
Imagine ancient Greece around 350 BCE. Most folks are fiercely loyal to their own city-state: Athens, Sparta, Corinth, and so on. One day the famously blunt philosopher Diogenes is asked where he comes from. Instead of naming his hometown, he shrugs and says, “I am a citizen of the world.” Mic drop. With that one line he tells everyone their local labels don’t impress him; he belongs everywhere and nowhere at once.
A few decades later the Stoic thinkers (think of them as the practical philosophers of the day) grab that idea and run with it. To them, every person is part of one giant family ruled by reason and nature’s laws. Under their view, treating a foreigner badly makes as little sense as mistreating your own brother or sister.
Diogenes is asked where he comes from.
3. Fast-forward to today.
Ask people now what “cosmopolitan” means, and you’ll hear things like:
• “Someone who’s traveled a lot.” • “Speaks a few languages.” • “Feels at home in New York, Tokyo, or Nairobi.”
All true. Modern life adds trains, planes, and the internet to the mix, so being “worldly” is easier than ever. But the old, bigger sense – citizen of the universe – still lurks beneath the surface, and it matters more than you might think.
4. Why the cosmic angle still matters
• Perspective. Step outside on a clear night, look up, and remember Earth is one tiny rock out of billions. Problems that seem huge – an annoying neighbor, a traffic jam – shrink a little.
• Common ground. Whether you’re in Brazil or Bangladesh, people laugh, worry about their kids, and enjoy tasty food. Seeing yourself as “cosmic kin” makes it easier to respect those different from you.
• Shared responsibility. If we all ride on the same blue marble, trashing the oceans or overheating the planet hurts the whole crew. A cosmopolitan mind-set nudges us to think twice before saying, “Not my problem.”
5. Signs you’re becoming cosmopolitan
You’re curious about how other people live, not judgmental.
You can enjoy sushi tonight, tacos tomorrow, and Ethiopian injera on Saturday – no food snobbery, just enthusiasm.
You listen to news from outside your own borders.
You’re comfortable saying, “I don’t know – tell me more.”
6. How to grow your cosmic citizenship badge
• Travel if you can, but if not, let books, films, or online forums be your passport. • Learn a few phrases in another language. Even “hello” and “thank you” go a long way. • Swap stories with immigrants or exchange students in your town. • Look up at the stars once in a while; download a stargazing app and find Mars or the Andromeda Galaxy. Nothing makes the universe feel real quite like spotting another galaxy with your own eyes.
• Get involved in causes that cross borders – climate action, global health, disaster relief. Small donations or volunteer hours matter.
7. A quick reality check
Being cosmopolitan doesn’t mean ditching your roots. Loving your hometown team or your grandma’s cooking is perfectly compatible with caring about the rest of humanity. Think of it as expanding the circle, not erasing it.
8. The takeaway in plain English
“Cosmopolitan” isn’t just a fancy word for someone who drinks cocktails at airport lounges. It’s a 2,000-year-old reminder that we all share the same cosmic address. Whether we’re talking about neighborhood barbecues or distant galaxies, we’re traveling this journey together. See yourself as a citizen of something bigger, act like it, and the world – and maybe even the universe – becomes a friendlier place.
The digital age began with a spark of innovation the day before Christmas in 1947. Some speculate that Roswell reverse engineering influenced this era, sparking much intrigue and debate over the years.
Transistor One
On December 23rd, 1947, researchers Shockley, Bardeen, and Brattain at Bell Labs demonstrated the world’s first working transistor to their colleagues. This revolutionary semiconductor device would become the foundational building block of modern electronics, fundamentally reshaping human civilization by ushering in the digital age.
The Roswell Connection
Yet, a tantalizing question lingers about the origins of this revolution, tied to a mysterious event that occurred just six months earlier in the New Mexico desert. In July 1947, an object crashed near Roswell, New Mexico.
Could the reverse engineering of Roswell finds have given birth to modern electronics?
Roswell, NM,
While officially labeled a weather balloon, eyewitness reports from the time painted a far different picture. The debris was described as a strange, foil-like material with extraordinary properties. Witnesses, including Major Jesse Marcel of the 509th Bomb Group, claimed it was impossibly strong and possessed a kind of shape-memory; it could be crumpled into a ball, only to unfold itself without a single crease.
The timing is provocative. An alleged craft of unknown origin, made of materials beyond our comprehension, crashes. Within months, a breakthrough occurs that hinges on semiconductor materials, launching the digital revolution. This has led to speculation: did the Roswell wreckage contain a piece of technology, perhaps a communications chip, that was recovered and successfully reverse-engineered?
The Probability of Visitors
For such a scenario to be plausible, we must consider the likelihood of alien visitors. The Copernican Principle provides a philosophical foundation, stating that Earth holds no privileged position in the cosmos.
Our planet is one of countless worlds orbiting one of countless suns. If the conditions for life arose here, it follows that life has likely arisen elsewhere throughout the universe.
Our sun (M) is one amongst many. Illustration by Iohannes Kepler, Epitome Astronomiae Copernicanae, 1618
This creates a paradox. If life is common, why haven’t we heard from anyone? Why the silence? Are we listening for the wrong signals?
The assumption that advanced civilizations would use interstellar radio waves might be flawed. It’s possible they have reasons not to broadcast their existence intentionally by radio. For one thing, conventional radio transceivers are awfully slow, given the enormous distances between worlds. Secondly, they may be afraid to expose their location (Dark Forest theory.)
If they aren’t communicating via radio waves, are they perhaps visiting or sending probes?
Since 1947, thousands of UFO testimonies have been logged. While many are misidentifications of mundane objects like the planet Venus, a significant number remain unexplained by conventional means.
If these reports are considered evidence of a physical presence, then accidental encounters, like the alleged crash at Roswell, move from the realm of impossibility to probability. The ultimate “message” from such a civilization might not be a radio signal, but something else waiting to be understood.
