Alien Viruses


Book Description

This book, the first of its kind, delves into the many leaked documents that describe research into alien biology and virology. Dr. Robert Wood's forensic analysis of the documents themselves argues strongly for their authenticity. And their implications are startling. Alien viruses are not only deadly, but are of key importance to biological warfare on Earth. Wood examines the mysterious deaths of key microbiologists and virologists, offers insight into the huge government secret expenditures, and provides an incredible revelation from an Area 51 insider on autopsies of bodies of unknown origin. With assistance from seasoned researcher Nick Redfern, extensively footnoted, and with a comprehensive Index, this is the authoritative treatment of the subject.




Alien Virus Love Disaster


Book Description

Philip K. Dick Award finalist Washington Post Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of 2018 Abbey Mei Otis’s short stories are contemporary fiction at its strongest: taking apart the supposed equality that is clearly just not there, putting humans under an alien microscope, putting humans under government control, putting kids from the moon into a small beach town and then the putting the rest of the town under the microscope as they react in ways we ope they would, and then, of course, in ways we’d hope they don’t. Otis has long been fascinated in using strange situations to explore dynamics of power, oppression, and grief, and the twelve stories collected here are at once a striking indictment of the present and a powerful warning about the future. “After I read this book, I woke up with bumpy, reddish growths along my spine. They burst, releasing marvels: aliens, robots, prefab houses, vinyl, chainlink, styrofoam, star stuff, tales from the edge of eviction, so many new worlds. Alien Virus Love Disaster is a super-intelligent infection. Let Abbey Mei Otis give you some lumps.” — Sofia Samatar, author of Tender




Alien Battle for Earth


Book Description

Techno and Mateo face an alien presence that has secretly taken over big business and government. The aliens run everything from underground tunnels in which they do the unspeakable to humans. Techno's sister was abducted, and Mateo and his family were taken underground. Mateo defended his sister’s honor only to find himself a prisoner on a dark train, shackled, and with no food or water.. His situation worsens when he finds out that he must fight for food while caged.. Mateo is ordered to take his clothes off and board another train. Nobody has ever come back. This one takes him to a chute, a grinder, and screams. A horrid realization comes when he sees who is running the operation. Mateo not only fights back, he become a national hero for challenging the Draconians. Mateo’s sister is locked into a special cell to please the leader of the Reptilians. Techno and Mateo decide to take matters into their own hands. Techno gets a special position in the Space Force investigating abductions. Underage abductees were forced into prostitution to blackmail powerful men. One case may be his sister, abducted twenty-five years ago. Could it be her? The alien underground has made so much progress during the last one hundred years in terms of control and planetary devastation that an intervention is called for by another alien species called the Orbellians. The Orbellians have had a hand in life on Earth for millennia and they begin to hybridize with humans. The result is an epic battle for control of Earth between three ancient alien species and humans.




A Planet of Viruses


Book Description

For years, scientists have been warning us that a pandemic was all but inevitable. Now it's here, and the rest of us have a lot to learn. Fortunately, science writer Carl Zimmer is here to guide us. In this compact volume, he tells the story of how the smallest living things known to science can bring an entire planet of people to a halt--and what we can learn from how we've defeated them in the past. Planet of Viruses covers such threats as Ebola, MERS, and chikungunya virus; tells about recent scientific discoveries, such as a hundred-million-year-old virus that infected the common ancestor of armadillos, elephants, and humans; and shares new findings that show why climate change may lead to even deadlier outbreaks. Zimmer’s lucid explanations and fascinating stories demonstrate how deeply humans and viruses are intertwined. Viruses helped give rise to the first life-forms, are responsible for many of our most devastating diseases, and will continue to control our fate for centuries. Thoroughly readable, and, for all its honesty about the threats, as reassuring as it is frightening, A Planet of Viruses is a fascinating tour of a world we all need to better understand.




Newly Characterized Protist and Invertebrate Viruses


Book Description

The time seems ripe for a critical compendium of that segment of the biological universe we call viruses. Virology, as a science, having passed only recently through its descriptive phase of naming and num bering, has probably reached that stage at which relatively few new truly new-viruses will be discovered. Triggered by the intellectual probes and techniques of molecular biology, genetics, biochemical cytology, and high resolution microscopy and spectroscopy, the field has experienced a genuine information explosion. Few serious attempts have been made to chronicle these events. This comprehensive series, which will comprise some 6000 pages in a total of about 18 volumes, represents a commitment by a large group of active investigators to analyze, digest, and expostulate on the great mass of data relating to viruses, much of which is now amorphous and disjointed, and scattered throughout a wide literature. In this way, we hope to place the entire field in perspective, and to develop an invalu able reference and sourcebook for researchers and students at all levels. This series i~ designed as a continuum that can be entered anywhere, but which also provides a logical progression of developing facts and integrated concepts.




The Science of UFOs


Book Description

What if UFOs are real? Where could they be from, and how could they have traveled here? What advanced technology must they possess to execute the fantastic maneuvers they are routinely reported to make? Astronomer William R. Alshuler takes a fascinating look at the reported attributes of UFOs through the lens of known science and physics and explains how they might be doing the weird and incredible things they are known to do. Along the way, he examines the possibilities and problems of traveling faster than light, interdimensionally, and via teleportation, as well as the veracity of UFO reports, insights into potential alien motives, and alien biochemistry.

Alien Invaders


Book Description

From killer toads, feral felines, and brown tree snakes to multiple invaders in the Great Lakes and Lake Victoria, Alien Invaders explores the impact on our ecosystems of the wave after wave of invaders and why they have become a worldwide concern. Environmentalists Jane Drake and Ann Love take us on a journey from the days of sailing ships and shipboard rats to the fungus that sparked the Irish potato famine to the beautiful but deadly purple loosestrife strangling native wetlands, while presenting the concepts of biodiversity and endangered species. Learn where the invaders originate, how they travel, what they displace, why the invaded natural system is vulnerable, and what can be done. Discover if you are an invader or a saver and how you can help.




Aliens Secrets and the Path to Ascension


Book Description

OUR CREATORS REVEALED IN OUR DNA AND THREE MORE MAJOR TOPICS How we came about is now very clear from two distinct lines of scientific evidence. The answer to where we come from remained hidden in our DNA until discovered in 2013. In the compelling book Alien Secrets, The Path to Ascension by Scott Campbell, SECTION DNA explains the historical event of discovery and accompanying evidence. DNA, it turns out, is a masterpiece of intelligent biomathematical coding by an extremely advanced alien civilization, making all life on Earth of alien origin. Further intervention may have boosted our intelligence. The Exogenesis Theory, also known as the Directed Panspermia Theory, or simply the Seed Theory, became first popularized by Nobel Prize winner and co-discoverer of DNA Francis Crick. The theory further begs biological and evolutionary proof of alien "super-microbes" on Earth. It has it in our family of Giant Viruses and our microbe history of evolution. At the same time as "Mitochondrial Eve," about 200,000 years ago, the single mother of all of us, the first Homo sapiens, boasted a robust increase in the size of skull and brain and a new, elongated shape. It proved itself to be about 150 cubic centimeters bigger than modern humans. Improved mitochondria for increased brain energy became part of the package. Perhaps aliens, the ultimate scientists, intervened. Three other sections include a complete analysis of the Roswell incident; alien types, technological methods, likely agendas, and the influence of ancient aliens on major religions. Since day one, aliens have dominated life on Earth. Takeaway: Studying alien technology, consciousness, and skillsets will lead modern humans to a similar mastery and will not only help guarantee our survival as a species but guide us into multiple and diverse levels of ascension. Sit back, get comfortable, and enjoy reading this revealing scientific inquiry into the Earth's most complex and important phenomenon.
