From Humanoid Encounters to Ultra-Secret Units: Mind-Bending UFO and Alien Accounts from the Netherlands!

When people think of the Netherlands, they might likely conjure up images of rides along the canals, tulips fields and windmills, or even the coffee houses that can be found in most towns and cities throughout the country. The fact is, though, the Netherlands can boast of some of the most thought-provoking and intriguing UFO and alien encounters on record, ranging from encounters with strange, humanoid figures, to sightings over air bases, and bizarre close encounters that span decades and involve some kind of strange secret security services. Moreover, these incidents continue to be reported today.

While we will explore several encounters from this side of the start of the Modern UFO Era, UFO sightings and encounters with strange humanoid entities in the Netherlands stretch back decades, at the very least.

Perhaps one of the earliest comes from the research files of Albert Rosales, and occurred in Heiden at around 10 pm on July 2nd, 1905, when a man named Soufian woke in the middle of the night to find he was looking down on himself lying in bed. As if that wasn’t strange enough, next to him was the female humanoid figure, who wore long robes and had pale grey skin. Then, the figure somehow moved directly over the top of him and was reaching towards his chest. The next thing he knew, he could feel an intense pain in his chest, almost as if this strange figure was parting his ribcage. Even though he was viewing this from above, when he tried to move he was unable to do so, suspecting he was somehow paralyzed.

“The Aircraft Has Collided with an Object”: Investigators Still Baffled by ‘Mystery Object’ That Struck Plane, Caused Minor Injuries

Investigators say the origin of an object that reportedly collided with a United Airlines aircraft last week, causing damage to its windshield and minor injuries to a pilot, remains unknown.

The harrowing incident occurred last week on Thursday October 16, 2025, at approximately 6:44 AM MDT. The aircraft, a Boeing 737 MAX 8, had been traveling from Denver to Los Angeles when members of the crew reported hearing a loud bang as an object apparently struck the front of the aircraft.

Damage was quickly observed on the right side of the aircraft’s windshield, prompting a diversion to Salt Lake City, where the aircraft safely landed approximately 50 minutes later.

“Unfortunately we have some bad news,” one of the pilots was heard saying over the aircraft intercom according to Heather Ramsey, a passenger aboard the flight at the time of the incident.

“The aircraft has collided with an object,” the pilot told passengers during the announcement.

Ramsey, who shared her account with Fox 11 Los Angeles, said she overheard one of the flight attendants warning other members of the crew to move to the back of the aircraft and to immediately stop in-flight service.

“It was really scary,” Ramsey said, adding that she and other passengers were “holding our breath until the very end.” 

The 134 passengers on board the flight were transferred to another aircraft once they reached Salt Lake City, which carried them on to their destination in Los Angeles.

Shortly after the incident, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) issued a statement saying the aircraft had safely made its way Salt Lake City, and that it was collecting information about the incident.

“The NTSB is investigating a cracked windscreen on a Boeing 737-8 during cruise flight near Moab, Utah, Thursday,” a portion of the statement read. “Operating as United flight 1093 from DEN to LAX, airplane diverted safely to SLC.”

The NTSB also said that the damaged windscreen had been sent to a laboratory where it would be examined to try to determine what the object that struck the aircraft might have been, as speculations ensue about whether debris from a spacecraft reentry, or even a potential meteor impact, could have been involved.

“[P]eople are starting to discuss what this might have been, and the ‘space debris’ (whatever that ends up being) idea is most definitely -not- being dismissed as a possibility,” wrote user JonNYC in a posting about the incident on X.

However, Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer with the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, told The Debrief in an email that there were “no known reentry matches” that link the incident to any spacecraft falling to Earth at the time.

In an update on his website, McDowell noted that there had been three objects that were successfully tracked during reentry last Thursday, involving a Starlink satellite and a pair of Chinese payloads.

“All are ruled out,” McDowell wrote, confirming none of these three objects had been near the location where the object struck the United Airlines flight last week.

While space debris has seemingly been ruled out for now regarding the United Airlines incident last week, McDowell has nonetheless raised concerns over the rise in Starlink satellite reentries, which he says are occurring on a daily basis.

In a statement provided to The Debrief earlier this month, McDowell said that “considering also non-Starlink reentries, there is a risk from reentering debris that I am not comfortable with,” adding that he believes “we should move to banning uncontrolled reentry from large (1 ton plus) space objects.”

Dr. Siamak Hesar, an expert on space debris reentries and CEO of Kayhan Space, similarly told The Debrief that while it is uncommon for space debris reentry to reach flight altitudes, such events are not unheard of, although it requires the debris to be fairly large.

“The material composition also plays a critical role, as objects made from heat-resistant materials have a much greater chance of partially surviving reentry,” Hesar told The Debrief. “Smaller fragments or components made of lighter materials typically disintegrate completely in the upper atmosphere before ever reaching air traffic altitudes.”

Hesar added that the odds of such incidents occurring “are gradually increasing due to the growing number of satellites and spacecraft being launched into orbit.”

Company Takes Credit for UFOs over NJ, Raises More Questions

The swarms of unidentified aircraft over New Jersey late last year were classified tests approved by the military, according to a leak from an elite tech summit. A protected source told the New York Post how one contractor claimed responsibility for the mysterious flying objects, which began baffling Garden State residents in November of 2024. “You remember that big UFO scare in New Jersey last year? Well, that was us,” an employee of the contractor allegedly said.

The Army UAS and Launched Effects Summit is an exclusive gathering of the military’s top brass and the nation’s best private contractors. During the event, the unnamed contractor also demonstrated a manned aerial craft with a unique design that makes it difficult to detect from certain angles. This potentially explains why so many reported the New Jersey UFOs vanishing suddenly while zipping across the sky.

Although this alleged admission answers some questions, it raises several others, such as why the scale of the tests was so large, and why there was an utter lack of transparency that confused even the state’s top lawmakers and the FBI. The densely populated test area also has some wondering about the purpose of these exercises.

DISCLOSURE: Marco Rubio Confirms UFOs Are Flying Over U.S. Nuclear Sites

I TOLD YOU THIS WAS COMING!

For over 10 years, I have been telling you on this website that the “Alien Card” would be the last to be played.

I have been telling you that there will literally come a point in the future when Government officials and “Mainstream Media” would report to you that Aliens are here.

Well folks, that time seems to be now.

Here is Marco Rubio telling you point blank that UFOs have been observed flying over our military and nuclear facilities.  We don’t know what they are.  And they’re not ours.

Now allow me to explain all of this….

This is called Disclosure or at the very least “Soft Disclosure”.

Marco Rubio does not go on camera and say this unless he gets very clear permission and instructions from those higher up than him, so the fact he’s saying this on camera in a new video tells you the Government wants this information to be blasted out right now.

Also, we would NEVER reveal such a vulnerability like this unless there were a much bigger plan and ulterior motive, understand that.

The USA (and any other country for that matter) would not just admit there are things flying in our airspace that are not ours but we can’t stop them and we don’t know what they are.

We would NEVER admit that, unless there was something much bigger going on here.

Eerie Animal Mutilations Mystify Argentine Ranchers

The owners of a ranch in Argentina are searching for answers after they lost both a cow and a horse to what appears to be the infamous cattle mutilation phenomenon. According to a local media report, the eerie case began last month in Villa de la Quebrada when a downed heifer was found with a cut jaw and its tongue, eye, and udder removed with what appeared to be remarkable precision. “What we found strange,” one of the ranch owners recalled, “is that it had a burn inside the mouth like it was made with a laser.” The situation became even more concerning last week when he noticed that one of their horses had gone missing, which led to another gruesome discovery.

To his astonishment, he soon stumbled upon the unfortunate mare, which had suffered a similar grisly fate, bearing “the same characteristics of the cow,” including precise cuts to its jaw and carefully removed body parts. The rancher noted that in both instances, the remains of the slain animals were of no interest to scavengers that would normally feast on such a free meal. Understandably baffled by the two incidents, he was skeptical that the killings were the work of human hands. “It does not make sense for one or more people to do all this and leave the animal lying,” he mused, arguing that a sinister miscreant would have at least taken the heifer’s remains.

With that scenario having been dismissed by the rancher, he offered an otherworldly explanation for what might be behind the two unsettling events. Citing “news and documentaries we have seen,” he pointed to two possible culprits: the chupacabras or aliens. That said, he conceded that the cases will likely remain a mystery as “the reality is that no one knows how to tell you exactly what may have happened to them or what would be the cause.” What do you think downed the rancher’s animals? Are the incidents a case of the cattle mutilation mystery going international, or did they perish under more prosaic circumstances?

Interstellar Object Is Spraying Something Weird, Scientists Find

A new analysis of our solar system’s interstellar interloper, 3I/ATLAS, reveals that it’s spewing huge amounts of water — and astronomers can’t immediately explain why.

The object, which is widely believed to be comet, showed strong ultraviolet emissions that are unmistakable telltales of hydroxyl gas (OH), a byproduct of water, when astronomers imaged it with NASA’s Neil Gehrels Swift space telescope before it disappeared behind the Sun. The emissions could only be spotted from space because the ultraviolet light would get absorbed in the atmosphere.

Their findings, detailed in a new study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, argue that the presence of all this OH indicates the comet is ejecting water vapor at a torrential rate of about 88 pounds per second — around the same rate as a fire hose running at full blast, according to a press release about the findings.

The most extraordinary thing is that this was spotted happening pretty far from the Sun, at a heliocentric distance of about three astronomical units (AU) away, or three times the distance between the Earth and our star. Typically, comets stray much closer to the Sun before the water ice in their core, called a nucleus, begins to sublimate, or instantly transform from a solid to a gas. Something else must be driving all the water dumping from 3I/ATLAS — which also implies, tantalizingly, that the comet must harbor considerable stores of water for this process to keep going.

When we detect water — or even its faint ultraviolet echo, OH, — from an interstellar comet, we’re reading a note from another planetary system,” coauthor Dennis Bodewits, a professor of physics at Auburn University, said in the release. “It tells us that the ingredients for life’s chemistry are not unique to our own.”

It’s another example of the fascinating strangeness of interstellar objects like 3I/ATLAS. Think of it as a sample of somewhere very far away, perhaps tens of millions of light years, careening straight past our doorstep. That it’s in many ways bizarre compared to local comets hints at just how unique these unimaginable alien realms must be, and how we have so much more to understand of how star systems form and how their structures may evolve.

Typically, a comet’s coma, a huge halo of gas and dust that give comets their glowing appearance, begin to form as the object nears the Sun — or another star, presumably — and heats up. The heat either sublimates or vaporizes the material in its nucleus, which is many times smaller than the tail that catches our eyes from the ground, stretching behind the comet.

3I/ATLAS’s coma has already surprised us in many ways. Its chemistry is strange compared to our own comets, and it appears to have an astonishingly high ratio of carbon dioxide to water.

Newest 3I/ATLAS Images Reveal Mysterious Interstellar Visitor in “Challenging Observation” by ESA Spacecraft

Highly anticipated new images of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it made its nearest pass to the planet Mars last week have been released by the European Space Agency (ESA), showcasing both the opportunities—and the challenges—that viewing the unusual object presents.

The new images, obtained by the ESA’s ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter, reveal a view of the alien comet similar to those obtained in July by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, although at much closer range.

Additional data may have also been obtained by ESA spacecraft as 3I/ATLAS passed Mars, although the agency said it presently remains unclear whether the ExoMars or its sister spacecraft, the Mars Express orbiter, may have collected spectrographic information that could enable chemical analysis.

Initially discovered in early July, 3I/ATLAS has captured the fascination of the astronomical community due to its unusual characteristics, which include its size, speed, and a range of behaviors that are not consistent with comets native to our solar system.

During the interstellar comet’s recent flyby past Mars, the ESA trained the cameras aboard its ExoMars and Mars Express orbiter toward the object, although the shorter exposure times of the latter spacecraft prevented it from being able to obtain any imagery of the object.

Fortunately, ExoMars is equipped with the Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) camera, which has a resolution of 11.36 micro-radians (≈2.34 arcseconds) per pixel, translating to 340 km per pixel at 30 million km distance.

‘Alien’ DNA found inside humans — it was inserted into our genes, bonkers new study claims

Is it the invasion of the genome snatchers?

Just in case the idea of aliens walking around in human skin suits wasn’t frightening enough. An outlandish study asserts that aliens might have abducted us and inserted genes into human DNA, with the fallout affecting potentially millions of people.

“Humanity may be undergoing genetic transformation,” lead researcher Dr. Max Rempel, the founder and CEO of the DNA Resonance Research Foundation, told the Daily Mail of the study, which has yet to be peer-reviewed.

Rempel came to this far-fetched-seeming conclusion by analyzing DNA from both regular people and those who have claimed to have been abducted by aliens. This comes following a spike in UFO sightings over the last year, making many fear that we are on the verge of some not-so-friendly close encounters.

The scientist specifically analyzed 581 complete families from the 1,000 Genomes Project, discovering ‘large sequences’ of DNA in 11 families that didn’t appear to correspond to either family.

These genetic aberrations entailed a bundle of 348 non-parental genetic variants. As the subjects were born before 1990, this ruled out human gene-editing technologies like CRISPR, which only emerged in 2013.

Rempel also analyzed 23andMe results from individuals who self-identify as alien abductees, discovering that some families showed evidence of non-parental markers.

Former Air Force Insider: Intelligence Personnel Were Shown Images of an Ancient ‘Tic Tac’ UFO

An advanced, exotic vehicle of unknown origin was unearthed during an archaeological dig, according to Dylan Borland, a former U.S. Air Force member and intelligence-community whistleblower.

Borland, who testified publicly last month on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) before the Congressional Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, expanded on his claims in an interview with investigative journalists Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp on their WEAPONIZED podcast.

Referencing UAP described as ‘propane tank’ or ‘Tic Tac’ shaped – similar to objects publicly reported by U.S. Navy personnel off the West Coast in 2004 and again in 2023 – Borland stated:

“They [members of a UAP legacy program] had photographic evidence of archaeological digs of some of these, and they had photographic evidence of ones that were complete.

“They did not disclose where they came from, which goes back to AARO [All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office] and the word games that are played with AARO on this subject.”

NASA goes dark hours before first look at interstellar object moving closer to Earth

NASA has gone dark just hours before humans get the closest look at the mysterious object barreling through our solar system

The interstellar object dubbed 3I/ATLAS will come within 18 million miles of Mars on October 3, its closest flyby of any planet this year.

Two space probes orbiting the Red Planet, Mars Express and ExoMars, are preparing to take Earth’s best picture and closest scans of the strange visitor, which scientists have widely concluded is an unusual comet from a distant solar system. 

However, when those readings come in, America’s space agency may remain completely silent about what the object really is.

NASA has announced that its official website will not be updated during the government shutdown, which has resulted in thousands of federal employees being sent home without pay.

It’s unclear whether NASA staff will make any announcements regarding the object’s close pass by Mars, similar to the history-making press conference that revealed the discovery of microbial life on Mars in September.

The shutdown couldn’t have come at a worse time, as scientists say Friday’s flyby could answer many questions about the mysterious comet, including whether it’s actually an object of extraterrestrial origin.

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb has maintained that 3I/ATLAS has too many confounding characteristics to be a simple comet streaking through the solar system.
