Alien’ discovery on pupils’ first day back at school
Strange footprints, dripping gooey gunk and an odd looking large object dumped in the middle of the playground.
That was the strange sight to greet pupils and staff starting back at Blackrod Church School yesterday.

The day’s planned events were cancelled and an emergency assembly was called, before pupils went back to their classrooms to make sense of it all, using their English, maths, science and art knowhow.
Young detectives came up with the idea that someone — or even something — had moved in over the holidays. And as they shared their theories, the hall lights went off adding to the tension.
Fortunately the weird and wonderful sights were a stunt pulled by the headteacher James Royal to excite youngsters about going back to learning after the long summer break. He said: “It was to engage the children in their learning. Some of them were quite subdued when they saw what had happened but others were bemused. The staff were not expecting this either.”
Mr Royal labelled the event Aliens Cry for Earth and hopes that children will pick up the environmental message of looking after the planet.
He said: “The theme of looking after the planet will be explored through the week. The idea of this was to show youngsters there is a learning opportunity in everything.”
Residents helped create the sense of unknown, while Horwich based J Dickinson and Sons provided the quarry ball, which to the children was everything from a spaceship to an giant egg.
Teachers said they were surprised by the sight that greeted them and the day helped relieve any apprehensions the children had, created an excitement around school and got children thinking.
Cara Billington, aged seven, said: “It was very exciting trying to find out what had happened through the clues and if aliens had landed. It was a good way to start the school year.”
Ben Bloor, aged seven, added: “We used our English skills to ask questions to try and find out what had happened.”

NASA archive footage shows UFO encounters and sightings
This video is a compilation of NASA archive footage of UFO encounters and sightings collected over the years.
The author of the video (LunaCognita) says that all of the “examples (with the exception of the second-to-last one) were captured on film by NASA astronauts or Russian Cosmonauts over the past half-century – showing many amazing examples from different eras – Gemini, Apollo, Apollo/Soyuz Test Project, Skylab, STS, the ISS, plus a couple Russian-source additions from their unmanned Zond and Mir Space Station programs as well thrown in to round things out.”
Still according to LunaCognita, “the second last example is the only one in the compilation that features footage that was not taken in space and is not official-source (NASA or Soviet/Russian Space Agency). That clip shows an LTP (Lunar Transient Phenomenon) event captured through a camera connected to the eyepiece of a terrestrial-based telescope that luckily was being focused on the Moon at the time. In this case, the LTP manifests as an object transiting across the face of the lunar disc. Many thanks to amateur astronomer Alberto Mayer of Italy for doing a wonderful job of filming this stunning event (and for stacking the footage for us all to see).
While the examples you will see here captured on film can all be “officially” classified as “unidentified” objects, that absolutely does NOT mean that NASA, the DoD, and certain elements within the scientific community worldwide are completely in the dark as to what these things you are seeing are. Make no mistake: The Powers That Be are indeed aware of far more about our mysterious Universe than they are ever willing to admit to us. We, the plebeian masses of this planet, are being held in a state of enforced ignorance, deemed not worthy of knowing the full truth by those who are REALLY “running the show” down here on Earth. As this video shows over and over again however, there are indeed snippets of that amazing truth that have been left scattered about the official government archives over the decades, there for us to find so we may begin to educate ourselves about what is the most monumental coverup in human history – where the only thing more incredible than the lies is the truth!”
