As evidence shows it, UFO events and reports hold a startling and unique connection to human medicine in a way never envisioned or expected until now. With soaring medical problems and costs in the United States, the connection between medical world and UFO incidents becomes evident when one looks at the body of evidence from a doctor's point of view. The medical applications arising from this connection and the factual data clearly indicate the need to research the endless possibilities, with great benefits to medicine and human needs in general. UFO reports and events such as the Gorman dogfight, Kecksburg Incident, and the Phoenix Lights clearly show the need for medical research in this area in a new light and with information that has only recently been uncovered, and point to an entire new medical field that has never been scrutinized until now. Dr. Clarington and Dr. Kent bring the otherwise unnoticeable connection to light in the clearest language, challenging other doctors, scientists, and people in general to consider the enormous benefits that UFO reports hold for the medical world and for countless patients who are in dire need of medical solutions.The book gives Hawaii MUFON concepts to consider in active UFO research that can go a long way in shedding light on a subject that should interest both "believers" and "non-believers", by finding practical applications for all of us.

Wilson Literary Science Writing Award “Provocative and thrilling ... Loeb asks us to think big and to expect the unexpected.” —Alan Lightman, New York Times bestselling author of Einstein’s Dreams and Searching for Stars on an Island in Maine Harvard’s top astronomer lays out his controversial theory that our solar system was recently visited by advanced alien technology from a distant star. In late 2017, scientists at a Hawaiian observatory glimpsed an object soaring through our inner solar system, moving so quickly that it could only have come from another star. Avi Loeb, Harvard’s top astronomer, showed it was not an asteroid; it was moving too fast along a strange orbit, and left no trail of gas or debris in its wake. There was only one conceivable explanation: the object was a piece of advanced technology created by a distant alien civilization. In Extraterrestrial, Loeb takes readers inside the thrilling story of the first interstellar visitor to be spotted in our solar system. He outlines his controversial theory and its profound implications: for science, for religion, and for the future of our species and our planet. A mind-bending journey through the furthest reaches of science, space-time, and the human imagination, Extraterrestrial challenges readers to aim for the stars—and to think critically about what’s out there, no matter how strange it seems.

As both individuals and societies, we are making decisions today that will have profound consequences for future generations. From preserving Earth's plants and animals to altering our use of fossil fuels, none of these decisions can be made wisely without a thorough understanding of life's history on our planet through biological evolution. Companion to the best selling title Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science, Evolution in Hawaii examines evolution and the nature of science by looking at a specific part of the world. Tracing the evolutionary pathways in Hawaii, we are able to draw powerful conclusions about evolution's occurrence, mechanisms, and courses. This practical book has been specifically designed to give teachers and their students an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of evolution using exercises with real genetic data to explore and investigate speciation and the probable order in which speciation occurred based on the ages of the Hawaiian Islands. By focusing on one set of islands, this book illuminates the general principles of evolutionary biology and demonstrate how ongoing research will continue to expand our knowledge of the natural world.
