Fortean / Alternative News: Riding Hood Entity, Alien-Hunting App and New NASA Sky Scanner

The Woman in the Riding Hood


Here is a photo taken by our Spirit Rescue International associate PoD in July 2010 while on a ghost hunting tour at The Chocolate Factory located in Hull, Yorkshire, UK. Irene and I examined the image and there seems to be either a woman or girl in a Victorian style riding hood. There is also an free floating entity above and behind the hooded figure. What do you think?

NASA to Scan Skies 24/7 for Near-Earth-Object Fireballs

dailygalaxy - Nasa is installing a network of surveillance cameras called the All-Sky Fireball Network to track meteorites as they enter the Earth's atmosphere. Each of the cameras has a special lens that can view the entire sky above it and a black and white video recorder that documents any meteors that are brighter than Venus nightly. The cameras have overlapping fields of view to ensure that the same meteorite can be detected by more than one camera. Nasa triangulate the fireball to assess where the meteorites came from and where they will land to help scientists recover space rock and help inform spacecraft designers striving to design meteor-proof shuttles.

There are currently only three cameras (one in north Alabama, one in northwest Georgia and one in southern Tennessee), but the aim is to install a total of 15 cameras in schools, science centres and planetariums.
It is a fully automated system, which detects meteors and then sends the data to the head of Nasa's Meteoroid Environment Office, William Cooke. The data is also available to the public, so you can check out all of the meteors from any given day on the All-Sky Fireball Network website.

Seti releases alien-hunting Android app

zdnet - The Seti Institute launched a private beta test on Thursday of SetiQuest Explorer in the hope that amateur astronomers will help with tasks that cannot be done well by computers. The app runs on Android 2.2 but will be available on the iPhone this summer. There is also a desktop version for any computer running Flash Player 10.2. "We want to tap into the brain power of the world," Jill Tarter, director of the non-profit Seti (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute, said.

The Seti@Home project run by the University of California at Berkeley is harnessing unused computer processing power to help crunch the data coming from outer space. SetiQuest Explorer is modeled on the same idea, but using humans and crowdsourcing to distribute visual recognition duties to people with spare time on their hands.
