ALIENS PLAGUES AND EPIDEMICS

Excerpts:
Incident at Fatima
Spanish Influenza
Sparta-Athene, 300 BC
Justinian Plague, 6th century
"Islamic literature of the day was very clear
in stating that the skies were darkened on many occasions
and people were frightened by meteor storms and comets
impacting the Earth.
There's also direct evidence, I think, from a subject called
dendrochronology -- thicknesses of tree rings --
an indication of the amount of light that we receive during the summer months.
For the period from 530 to 550, or thereabout -- A.D. -- we find
that the tree-ring thicknesses almost vanish---
showing that the skies were really darkened.
-Wickramasinghe
"In 1347, ships full of Italian sailors died suddenly ---
after being covered in oozing black
boils filld with blood and pus.
The disease spread rapidly throughout Europe ---
and soon had a name-- the Black Plague."
Within five years this previously unknown
disease had wiped out nearly one-third of Europe ---
the equivalent, in today's numbers, of more than
300 million dead.
Grim Reaper
"Bacteria are space travelers."
But how did this incredibly deadly virus strike
simultaneously all over the globe?
The Stardust Mission. 2006.
A NASA spacecraft plunges through the tail of comet 81P-Wild---
collecting comet particles on blocks of a sticky material
called aerogel.
The findings stun even the most cynical scientists.
SEAGER: The Stardust detector came back to Earth, and the particle collected
were studie3d in detail and MANY ORGANIC COMPOUNDS WERE FOUND
INCLUDING THE AMINO ACID GLYCINE, which is a building block for life."
Kerala India, 2001
A cosmic bang, a massive explosin in the atmosphere
, a downpour of red rain.
... blodd coming down from the sky.
Homer writes in The Iliad about a blood rain foreshadowing
slaughter in battle.
Gregory of Tours witnessed blod rain before the outbreak
of the Justinian Plague.
And the 14th century Germany, a shower of blood reportedly
proceeded the Black Death.
After the incident in Kerala, biologist Dr. Godfrey Louis
is able to collect samples of the strange red liquid.
WICKERMASINGHE: He collected the rain as clear as possible,
and it was discovered that they
contained cells that looked like living cells.
So its some kind of organism. Now where's it came from?
Does it come from space or does it come from Earth?
This is the big question.
Because, of course, the meteorite immediately puts it
into the realms of mystery, space.
Morgellons Disease.
The best estimates that I've heard are the number of bacteria in the world
is something in the range of 5 followed by 30 zeroes, it is a staggering number.
