THE INTERNET — A Reddit user posting to r/Experiencers has described what he calls a "double ufo flyby" witnessed with a woman he had only just met, an account he offers as corroboration of his earlier experiences.

The author, who describes himself as 37, personable and thoroughly ordinary, says his interest began a couple of years ago after watching a 60 Minutes segment on the Nimitz encounter. He writes that he then took up podcasts, disclosure news and the testimony of figures from Bob Lazar to Jacques Vallée. Though aware of the criticism surrounding Steven Greer, he says he reasoned that trying the CE5 protocol could do no harm.

OTTAWA, ONT. — Transport Canada's Aviation Operations Centre collected more than 40 reports of unidentified flying objects between September 2008 and February 2024, according to The Canada Report, a news website that obtained the records under request A-2023-00619. The 154 pages released, the outlet writes, contain no investigation of a single one.

The reports came, the site says, from airline crews, air traffic controllers, RCMP officers and the public, through five channels: NAV CANADA occurrence reports, faxed National Defence forms, RCMP calls, FAA email alerts, and web forms, including the drone complaint form. The usual outcome was a forwarding email marked "for information," after which the thread went silent.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Donald Trump told a television interviewer on Oct. 15, 2026, that his administration is continuing to release government records on unidentified flying objects, but conceded that the matter is not among his foremost concerns, according to a report published by Unknown Country.

Asked at the White House by Newsmax host Rob Finnerty whether he would be the president to disclose what the government knows about extraterrestrial life, alleged visitation and reverse-engineering programs, Mr. Trump replied, in part, "I'm looking." He added that the subject was not high on his list. No new disclosure initiative or release schedule was announced.

HEATHROW AIRPORT, LONDON — A Reddit user posting to r/Paranormal has described what the author calls a visit to a "room of requirement" at London's Heathrow Airport, an experience said to have occurred 19 years ago and never repeated.

According to the post, the writer was young and exhausted after travelling from the Caribbean with several layovers, hoping to surprise parents by arriving home for Christmas. With some ten hours to wait in Terminal 3 and a strong need for a cigarette, the author searched the long corridors for a smoking area. Smoking rooms of that era, the post notes, were typically small, smelly cells with iron seats.

AN ABANDONED GRAVEL PIT — A hillside behind an abandoned gravel pit is the scene of an uncanny gathering in the latest episode of the Weird Darkness program, which aired on October 21, 2026 under the title "Carnival of Desires."

According to the episode's description, a character named Jacob kneels on the hill at five minutes to midnight with his two best friends. There he recites words attributed to his dead grandfather. The description states that the dark woods then fill with carousel music and children's laughter.

THE BEDROOM, ELSEWHERE — A Reddit user posting to r/Paranormal has described a pre-dawn encounter with a figure she cannot put out of her mind, and has asked the board's readers to help her decide whether she met a ghost or merely a hallucination.

According to the post, the author woke between three and four in the morning to the sound of her cat miaowing loudly somewhere in the house. She then saw a dark figure walking about the room on her husband's side of the bed. She took it at first for her husband, she writes, until she realised he was asleep beside her.

THE ASTRAL PLANE — A message attributed to Archangel Michael and channeled by James McConnell was published on October 21 by the website Era of Light, offering what it describes as a deep dive into multidimensionality. The text is presented as a direct address to readers living, in its words, in a timeline that has shifted many times.

According to the message, each person is an accumulation of many selves: a God Self, higher God Selves beyond it, an over soul and, at the end of the chain, the Monad. The channeled voice states that every personality a person has passed through contributes its experience upward to these higher layers.

THE ASTRAL PLANE — A message attributed to Mary Magdalene, channeled by Octavia Vasile and published October 21 on the website Era of Light, reports that a tender energy is spreading across the planet by way of the "Rose Ley Lines," which the text describes as awakening once more.

According to the transmission, these lines run like rivers of love beneath the skin of the Earth. The message states that humanity has long lived by doing, achieving and rushing, and that the Rose is now opening to invite a gentler rhythm of slowness, softness and the simple joy of being alive.

THE ASTRAL PLANE — A web post published by the Unarius Academy of Science under the title "Adventures Of An Astral Traveler" revives the account of Robert A. Monroe, who by the post's telling was a pragmatic 42-year-old broadcasting executive living a conventional suburban life with his family in the spring of 1958.

According to the post, Mr. Monroe had no prior history of mystical interests or unusual occurrences. The trouble began, it says, during a quiet afternoon rest, when a sudden and intense surge of vibrations swept through his body. The sensation is described as an overwhelming electrical frequency that left him paralyzed and deeply disoriented.

COVA DONES, SPAIN — Archaeologists working in eastern Iberia say they have found the largest collection of Latin cave inscriptions ever recorded in the Roman Empire, according to a report from AncientPages.com citing the University of Southampton. The site, Cova Dones, holds at least 120 inscriptions, where only 15 Roman examples were previously known.

The work was carried out by the DONARQ project, co-led by Dr. Aitor Ruiz-Redondo of the University of Southampton and the University of Zaragoza, with Dr. Virginia Barciela of the University of Alicante. The cave was already known for Paleolithic rock art, but excavations in 2024 reportedly revealed a Roman sanctuary more than 200 meters underground.

MACHU PICCHU, PERU — A team of Polish and Peruvian archaeologists has located more than 2.5 kilometers of previously unknown roads in the forest near Machu Picchu, according to a report published by Ancient Pages. The team also mapped forgotten terraces, platforms and circular structures.

The fieldwork took place in July and August on the steep slopes of Mount Yanantin, at altitudes of between 2,000 and 2,700 meters. The report says the dense, humid jungle had made the remains virtually invisible from the ground.

KARIMA, SUDAN — An international team of archaeologists has uncovered what it describes as a complete faience workshop at the Sanam temple in northern Sudan, and argues that the find challenges the old notion that the Kingdom of Kush merely imitated its northern neighbour, Egypt. The findings were reported in the journal Antiquity, according to The Debrief.

The temple stands near the town of Karima and dates to the Middle Napatan Period, roughly 750 to 580 BCE. It was built by King Taharqo, one of the Kushite rulers whose realm extended into Egypt after an earlier king, Piankhy, conquered it. Surrounding remains are said to include a royal treasury and several cemeteries. The site was first excavated more than a century ago, but the report says limited technical means and an incomplete understanding of Kushite culture hampered those early efforts.

THE INTERNET — The science site The Debrief has issued its weekly digest of curiosities, led by a report from the University of Bristol. According to the roundup, researchers there have shown that small organoids grown from living human brain cells can process information from Braille characters. The write-up notes the work stops short of demonstrating actual learning, though it is described as a step toward biological computing.

From Shanidar Cave in Iraqi Kurdistan comes a more somber item. Researchers examining a Neanderthal skeleton about 75,000 years old have, the digest says, identified an unusual puncture wound in the shoulder blade that may have been caused by a wooden spear. The same individual is reported to have survived earlier severe facial injuries, raising questions about conflict and care in Neanderthal communities.

THE INTERNET — A Reddit user posting to r/UFOs has drawn the attention of the board's readers to a claim attributed to Ross Coulthart, who according to the post asserts that Donald Trump is now fully aware of the existence of something called the UAP Legacy Program.

The post, which consists of a headline and a link with no accompanying text, further states that Mr. Coulthart believes the program is being overseen at the highest levels of the White House. The title quotes him as saying it is "being overseen by people at a very high level" and singles out one man in particular, Devin Nunes.

4CHAN /X/ — An anonymous poster on 4chan's /x/ board has put a question to the assembled: what if humanity began torturing Archons in order to feed off their "loosh"? The opening post, as preserved, carries no text beyond the title, leaving the matter largely to the respondents.

Those respondents, fifty-two at last count, proved ready with views. One cautioned that such a course would make the torturer just like them, and thereby an Archon himself. Another observed that anyone who has laughed at another's suffering has, by that measure, already fed on loosh. A third inquired whether the option even exists in the game.

THE INTERNET — A Reddit user posting to r/HighStrangeness has put a plain question to fellow readers of the board: has anyone dreamt of a large tsunami approaching, or something similar?

The author, who states that they are researching the nature of dreams, says they wish to learn how common such dreams might be. The post is brief and offers no account of a dream of the author's own, nor any dates, places or particulars.

CHINA, VIA WEIBO — Followers of the AI-generated girl group BabyQueen have been thrown into confusion, according to the Daily Star, after one of its five digitally created members announced that she was pregnant and leaving the act.

The singer, known as Mity, posted on the Chinese platform Weibo that she had found out she was expecting. She wrote that, after thorough discussions with the company and the other members, she had decided to temporarily leave the group to focus on her pregnancy and recovery. She described the choice as "not an easy decision" and apologised to fans who felt worried and disappointed. She did not name a father.
