1670 Painting Reveals Proof Of Time Travel?
Apple CEO Tim Cook has sparked major controversy this week during Amsterdam’s Start-Up Fest Europe, when he claims a 1670 painting shows proof of time travel as the portrait seems to show a man holding an iPhone.
Cook was referring to the painting of “Man Handing a Letter to a Woman in the Entrance Hall of a House,” by Pieter de Hooch and says “It’s tough to see but I swear it’s there!”

NASA Fights Back
In a follow-up to a story I brought you last night, NASA is now fighting back against claims made by former Microsoft chief technology officer, stating that there were flaws in their data regarding asteroids.
NASA has just posted a rebuttal expressing faith in the NEOWISE analyses and noting that Myhrvold’s paper has yet to be peer-reviewed, explaining that examination of the paper by members of the science community studying near-Earth objects has found several fundamental errors in Myhrvold’s approach and analysis — mistakes that an independent peer-review process is designed to catch.”
The NEOWISE studies have been peer-reviewed, NASA officials added.

Is Dark Matter Made Of Black Holes?
An alternative view that dark matter is made of black holes formed during the first second of our universe’s existence, known as primordial black holes is now being backed up by scientists at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, as they say it would align with our knowledge of cosmic infrared and X-ray background glows and may explain the unexpectedly high masses of merging black holes detected last year.

Strange Video Coming In From Space
New videos have been immersing showing strange things from space.
In the first video, taken by cameras at the ISS, viewers believe the grainy footage of missile-shaped object in orbit is actually an image of a secret kinetic weapons system.
One viewer commented that the ‘missile’ appears to have been ejected from the ISS and is heading towards Earth.
In the second video, posted to YouTube by Secureteam, where by using google earth have made claims of the discovery of the lunar landscape being dotted with massive structures that prove to them that the Moon is occupied.
The shadowy image presented appears to show the pyramid-like structures, and five 200 foot tall towers at the rim of a crater.

There Is Less possibility Of Life Out There Then Previously Thought
Disappointing news have just been released suggesting that there may be far fewer potentially life-supporting alien planets out there than previously thought.
Study lead author James Owen, of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, says It was previously assumed that planets with masses similar to Earth would be habitable simply because they were in the habitable zone, however, when you consider how these planets evolve over billions of years, this assumption turns out not to be true”

Europa Could Harbor Life
In more promising news, new research suggests that Jupiter’s moon Europa may actually be able to support life.
A research team of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, now suggest that the salty ocean of liquid water believed to lie beneath Europa’s icy exterior could harbor life and that and state that even without taking possible volcanic processes into account, Europa likely produces 10 times more oxygen than hydrogen, just as Earth does.
