Earth observation satellites act as our eyes in the spaces, offering essential data that benefits society in countless ways. They monitor crops, track deforestation, urban planning and manage natural resources. This valuable information empowers businesses, guides policy-making, and supports scientific research to deepen our understanding of Earth. 🌱🌦️🌳 Do you recognise the location of any of these satellite images? #GameChanger #GeospatialAI #Uzma #UzmaSAT1 #RemoteSensing #SatelliteTechnology #DataDrivenDecisions #EnvironmentalMonitoring #EarthObservation

John Heinz's article offers an important perspective on who's behind the UFO phenomenon. It goes beyond the simple choice between off-world extraterrestrials or secret government projects (aka SSPs) and proposes a third possibility - the UFOs come from inside the Earth. While Heinz describes them as Ultraterrestrials, they have been previously described as Cryptids, Inner Earthers, Intra-Terrestrials, etc. Heinz writes: "The "Ultra-Terrestrial" hypothesis proposes that one or more non-human civilizations arose on Earth before humanity's emergence, developing advanced technology before cataclysms drove them to take refuge underground and undersea. Their descendants may now pilot UAP to monitor surface conditions. civilizations."
