Oxford Professor: Aliens are Breeding with Humans Because of Climate Change

Guest essay by Eric Worrall

h/t Dr Willie Soon – An Oxford Professor has been busy promoting his view that aliens are breeding with humans to produce alien / human hybrids which have a better chance of surviving the coming climate catastrophe.

Oxford Professor Argues Invisible Aliens Are Interbreeding With Humans

26 April 2019 The News Team

The Oxford Student has learnt that Dr Young-hae Chi, Professor at Oxford’s Oriental Institute, believes in a strong correlation between climate change and alien abductions.

In 2012, Dr Chi gave a lecture at the the Ammach Conference, titled ‘Alien Abduction and the Environmental Crisis’ in which he outlined his theory concerning the presence of aliens on earth. 

Dr Chi began his lecture with the statement that “perhaps human civilisation is coming to an end”.  

In his fifty-five minute presentation he cited Dr David Jacobs, an ‘abduction researcher’ in the US, who argued that aliens’ primary purpose is to colonise the earth, by interbreeding with humans to produce a new hybrid species. Second generation ‘hybrids’ are, according to Jacobs, walking unobserved among us.

Dr Chi argued that “it is not only scientists and theologians, but also non-human species who appear to be greatly concerned about the survivability of the human species”.

He pointed out that the timing of aliens’ appearance coincides with the earth facing major problems, climate change and nuclear weapons in particular. 

He concludes that “it may be more or less assumed that the hybrid project is a response to this impending demise of human civilisation”.

The following is a video of Professor Chi’s 2012 lecture;

You might think in the absence of extraordinary evidence, Dr. Chi’s ideas are utterly preposterous, but evidence free assertions are not unusual in the climate science community.

Some climate scientists demand we accept their model projections without getting hung up about the simplistic version of scientific falsifiability we learned as children; they claim their climate expertise is all the evidence we need to accept their predictions.

Update (EW): Sharp eyed readers might have noticed my aliens vs global temperature graph shows the opposite of what Dr. Chi is asserting, but getting data upside down is OK in climate science.

One scenario is that the aliens plan to cultivate very strong strains of marijuana throughout the planet. Dr. Chi was apparently able to sample that strain.

If that is the case, it appears the ‘hybrids’ have sacrificed intelligence to attain better genes to survive higher temperatures. Not what I would deem an advancement.
…But, perhaps the aliens are attempting to breed strong backs and weak minds necessary to work the dilithium mines.

This sounds like all the other wild-and-crazy claims about catastrophic human-made global warming.

It fits right in with the CAGW hypo:
“Aliens, hockey sticks, warming-causes-cooling, wild-and-crazy weather, fire and brimstone coming down from the skies, rivers and seas boiling, forty years of darkness, earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave, human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria…”

She and the whole climate cult remind me of pod people in Invasion of the Body Snatchers

The film’s storyline concerns an extraterrestrial invasion that begins in the fictional California town of Santa Mira. Alien plant spores have fallen from space and grown into large seed pods, each one capable of reproducing a duplicate replacement copy of each human. As each pod reaches full development, it assimilates the physical characteristics, memories, and personalities of each sleeping person placed near it; these duplicates, however, are devoid of all human emotion.

The slang expression “pod people” that arose in late 20th century American culture references the emotionless duplicates seen in the film

There is even a scene in the movie is the movie where an alien is doing it with a hooker on top.

The proper term for humans having sex with another species is bestiality — illegal in most states, even if the partner is invisible. Typically, hybrids among animals are infertile, assuming the embryo goes full-term. The aliens must have to work overtime to get fertile offspring.

I note: Oxford.
==================

But I have long said that my Invisible Space Alien-GW hypothesis just as valid as that crap out today’s pseudo-science climate science community. That is that “invisible space aliens” are using their technology to warm the Earth, only to make it appear as though CO2 were the cause of warming.

My hypothesis is exactly as credible as the hypothesis behind the CMIP3/5/6 models, as long as you invert the Null hypothesis it is credible, like Trenberth and others have tried to do. Inverting the null hypothesis puts the burden of proof on the skeptical. (When supposed “credible” scientists actually say that, like Trenberth did, you know they are fakers.)

I claim we can’t detect those space aliens because they are invisible and clever with their advanced technology that appears as magic to us. Prove me wrong. I could even probably go to Roswell NM and interview a select group of people and get a 97% consensus on that.

Yes, and that 97 percent consensus would be worth just about as much as the much-ballyhooed 97 percent CAGW consensus. And both results would have been gathered the same way, by cherry-picking which participants to include to get the answer desired.

Joel, my comments seem to be posting normally, i.e., they show up within about 15 minutes. I posted a comment about 20 minutes ago, and it has shown up. I posted several others within the last five or ten minutes. I’ll see how long it takes for them to show up.

And sometimes my posts appear immediately, and sometimes they appear immediately but say the post is in moderation.

I don’t know what is going on but I would suspect it is quirky software.

At one point WUWT upgraded the comment software, and it was a very good enhancement, but for unknown reasons (at least by me) the software started causing problems with the website operations and was removed for that reason. The current comment software is even worse than the software used before the upgrade. Before the upgrade, one could post a link as a picture right in the post, but the current version won’t let us do that, all that shows up is the link, not the picture. This is not the fault of the problematic upgrade, it is the fault of the downgrade.

It would sure be nice to be able to post pictures again. It was done before with the default software, so why isn’t it back if the software was reverted to it after the upgrade blew up? Apparently the software wasn’t reverted to the same software used before the upgrade. Or the picture posting feature has been disabled.

Eric Worrall,

Dr Chi is just following Krugman’s advice from 2012.
You need to go back and review this 2012 post by Anthony here at WUWT to see how this has now played out.

https://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/05/27/quote-of-the-week-bonus-krugman-insanity-edition/

Paul Krugman’s quote from the New York Times, 2012:

” PAUL KRUGMAN, NEW YORK TIMES: This is hard to get people to do, much better, obviously, to build bridges and roads and healthcare clinics and schools. But my proposed, I actually have a serious proposal which is that we have to get a bunch of scientists to tell us that we’re facing a threatened alien invasion, and in order to be prepared for that alien invasion we have to do things like build high-speed rail. And the, once we’ve recovered, we can say, “Look, there were no aliens.”

But look, I mean, whatever it takes because right now we need somebody to spend, and that somebody has to be the U.S. government.”

Life is stranger than Sci_Fi in the Left’s Climate Change Fantasies. And some of them are self-fulling prophecies.

The scariest part of the excerpt is that Krugman is serious and exposing a leftist tactic used exactly as Mencken observed when H.L. explained the whole aim of practical politics. The level of alarm raised is a barometer of how effectively the Government is dumbing down succeeding generations.

I take that back the scariest part of the excerpt is that anyone actually cares what Paul Krugman has to say outside of his vary narrow area of expertise on International Trade. Whenever the guy speaks he is driving a political agenda motivated by socialist centralized government control which always translates to nonsense.

I recall attending a lecture at Sydney Uni as an undergraduate where the existence of Aliens was ‘demonstrated’
One of the ‘proofs’ was a painting by Raphael of the Resurrection.
https://www.google.com/search?q=Raphael+the+resurrection+painting&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=rXmiznCn5leYRM%253A%252C91_hfS3QWANi8M%252C_&vet=1&usg=AI4_-kQOUOzm7fjnXqek94A0SPcLmZeOEQ&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjgk5vX-fHhAhVJfX0KHXDzB30Q9QEwAXoECAkQBg#imgrc=rXmiznCn5leYRM:

If one looks carefully one may see the flying saucer in the clouds at the top left of the painting.
Other pieces of evidence, such a s a rocket head dress were shown. This showed that alien technology was in use in Biblical Times.
The audience lapped it up.
The fact that Raphael did not make it to the resurrection did not seem to matter.
To this day I am not sure if this lecturer was or was not pulling the legs of the gullible.
Question
Was this lecture on the 1st of April?

Has anybody considered the genetics of such a hybrid? Humans have 46 chromosomes, 23 pairs. How likely are aliens from who knows where, less related to us than an amoeba, to have 46 chromosomes, and be compatible with us? A tomato is more related to humans than some alien is, has 46 chromosomes as well, but no one in his right mind would consider the possibilities of breeding a half-human, half tomato crossbreed.

– Advances civilizations and sentient Life is abundant in the galaxy, the Star Trek paradigm.

All of this is Utter garbage. Exactly like Climate Change Alarmism.

Space is a hostile environment to biological life.
I”ve reviewed the twins study from NASA on the Kelly brother’s. The one who stayed a year on the ISS and the other who stayed here on Earth.

What it says, between the lines, is no one is going to survive for > 2+ years in beyond LEO-space (above the Van Allen radiation belts).
No one.
And if they somehow do survive, they are gong to be so sick and radiation poisoned, that their remaining days will be miserable bouts with hematologic cancers (leukemia/lymphomas), stark anemia due to hematopoetic stem cell failures, and insidious cognitive dementia (unable to complete basic mental tasks or memory functions). And also likely cardiac instabilites due to loss of cardiac stem cells due to radiation exposure. Really bad stuff.

Manned trips to Mars, without a crap-load of very thick, heavy radiation shielding on the crew cab (much more than is currently planned), simply is not going to happen without a death sentence being imposed on the astronauts.

Oh we knew about the Van Allen radiation belts. Apollo missions used speed and trajectory to mitigate and avoid to the extent possible.

GCRs and solar CME’s are the very deadly threat beyond Earth’s magneto-sheath. Scott Kelly’s exposure for a year was in LEO. An extended staybeyond LEO in space will be quite deadly.

Nasa could test this with a spaceship carrying rats in lunar orbit for a year long mission. But they won’t because the lethal answer would put all their manned space flight funding (jobs) in jeopardy.

NASA manned space programs today are as much a jobs program as the Depression era CCC was in 1938.

The solutions to humans living safely in space are:

Centrifugal force

One-meter-thick Water-ice radiation shielding.

The solution to conquering the Earth/MoonMars space:

Aldrin Cycling space transportation vehicles, that travel in orbits between Earth and Mars, and a Moon-orbiting and Mars-orbiting space station incorporating the artificial gravity and radiation sheilding items mentioned above.

Take a one-mile-long cable and attach a habitat module to each end, then stretch the cable taunt and rotate the modules around the center at one revolution per minute (RPM) and this will produce artificial gravity in both modules that is equivalent to the gravity on the surface of the Earth.

Cover these modules in a one-meter-thick envelope of water ice and this will protect humans inside from the radiation of space.

This basic configuration could serve as Aldrin Cycling Transports, and as safe harbors around both the Moon and Mars.

The formula is: One Mile in Diameter + One Revolution Per Minute = One Earth “Gravity” 1+1=1

The additional mass of the water ice will add to our fuel bills, but there is no other choice.

If I were a billionaire, I would be looking for a nice small asteriod I could hollow out as my new kingdom. Something about ten miles long and about five miles in diameter. That ought to be big enough. 🙂

You should do some engineering numbers around those ideas.
1 cubic meter of water shield = 1 metric tonne.
surface area of a sphere = 4πr^2.

Assume a sparse, shielded spherical crew living space just 4 meters in diameter.
Outer hull Area = 16π sq meters = ~50 sq meters.

So 50 tonnes of water just for shielding. That 50 tonnes shielding cannot be used for anything else, like to make oxygen, used for fuel.

To go to Mars, that 50 tonne-watershield would have to be accelerated to leave Earth orbit and put on a Mars intercept. And then decelerated at Mars just like the rest of the spaceship, the astronauts, and their food, fuel, and, water. Transit is roughly 200 days each way. Unless it was one-way suicide mission, the astronauts will also need that water to return safely to Earth on the 200 day return. So the water shield would have to accelerated again to break Mars orbit and put the ship on a return to Earth trajectory. The only good part is the water shield could be jettisoned just prior to Earth arrival and deceleration for re-entry so that fuel wouldn’t be needed for that.

The fuel expenditures for the thrust needed alone for the watershield mass are enormous. If the rest of the ship were 50 tonnes also, that means half the fuel would be shielding alone.
So a 100 metric tonne ship to Mars and back.

Better just to use robots and AI to explore beyond LEO as we already do. Humans need to stay here in our space place on Earth.
Radiation is lethal. Unless the idea of dying at a young age from leukemia or lymphoma or early-onset dementia and blindness appeals to you.

I’m not sure American English spoke by Kirk and Co counts as the “Queen’s English”. But putting that aside, a number of sci-fi shows (including Star Trek) do occasionally come up with explanations for that. With Star Trek, it’s their universal translator that make you hear the aliens speaking English. There’s been a few episode where the translator isn’t working (such as a DS9 episode where Quark is in the past, at Roswell New Mexico) And Doctor Who has the TARDIS’s telepathic circuits doing the translation for the TARDIS crew.

There was also an episode on The Next Generation where they were dealing with a culture that spoke almost entirely through metaphore, and since the Federation dudes didn’t know the references, they couldn’t understand what the aliens were trying to say.

Nancy,

All life on Earth uses the same genetic code for AGTC DNA coding to AGUC RNA to the 20 essential amino acids in the translation CODONS with identical degeneracy of 4^3 (64 coding sequences for 20 AA). There are some noted exceptions in our biology where this coding from Replication to Transcription to Translation does not follow the exact same coding, but those are rare and distant extant examples outside the main tree of life on Earth. Even the Left hand twist of the DNA helix ais governed by the one-chriality of the L-amino-acids and nucleic acids on Earth.

There is no reason this Left:Right chirality choice of the carbon atom in the nucleic acid and the amino acid is unique in an extra-terrestrial life forms, it could be the opposite. A 50:50 choice for biology of any planet uniquely evolving its own nucleic acid and amino acid based life.

If it is not EXACTLY the same, then there is no way an alien with an different AA-codon or with an R-chirality amino acids and nucleic acid DNA/RNA could reproduce with an Earth species even if all their codons (base-pairs to assigned AA by tRNA mapping) were the same as here on Earth.

The inter-breeding stuff of Earth humans and aliens on TV/movie sci-fi’s is just that — pure fiction. Chance would not allow it.

And generally, for fertilization and development to take place, the two parents must be within +/- 2 chromosomes. Even then, if the offspring is viable, it is usually infertile. Birthing is typically fatal for the mother if if the male species is much larger. The odds are not in favor of the invisible aliens, especially if the alien is female!

You asked, “Why do you assume the invisible aliens are smaller than humans if they are female or larger than humans if they are male?”

Actually, I made no such assumption. I was merely stating an observation about problems encountered with inter-species hybrids. It is the female that is at risk if there is a substantial size difference.

As to “odds,” unless the aliens evolved on a planet with gravity close to that of Earth, they will probably be different in size. So, 50% of aliens might be smaller and 50% might be larger. On Earth, it is common for male mammals to be larger than females. No assumptions, just observations.

3. The green new deal will create new jobs while producing abundant, efficient and low cost renewable energy to replace fossil fuels.

4. Invisible Aliens colonizing the earth are interbreeding with humans

5. There was no Medieval Warm Period and the IPCC temperature graph proves it

6. Carbon dioxide is pollution and life on this planet liked it better when atmospheric CO2 was at 280 ppm and the global temperature was 1 deg C cooler.

It was in fact a Meme which invades the logical synthesis process in the brain; but was found to be temporary and therefore largely ignored.
It turned out however that these astronauts were merely carriers; but subsequently infected a number of scientists within NASA. The most notorious one being Hanson who published a paper incorporating the main elements of the Meme and subsequently vociferously advanced its main elements into the scientific and public domain.
This eventually was given the name of CAGW (Catastrophic Anthropological Global Warming) which rapidly developed into a pandemic and has now reached hysterical proportions.
For those unaware, Memes act in the logical environment in similar ways to genes and have the propensity to replicate and additionally morph into variations and sub-memes. This is what makes them so dangerous.

If you strip the terms “Alien” and remove the sexual connotations from Dr. Young-Hae Chi’s presentation then the his story reveals a similarity here.

Take this as you may; but what is evident is the seriousness of the matter.

Nutter aside. It’s a long running theme in sci fi that aliens will punish us for not looking after the planet but logic makes it highly unlikely. If there is enough intelligent life in the universe that one day they turn up here, then it follows that there must be countless planets with no intelligent life and even more with just plant life. So our planet and its animals wouldn’t be remotely interesting. Only humans would be novel. If they wanted to save the planet then delivering cheap, non polluting energy would be the easiest solution. Almost certainly any intergalactic life form would have gone through a similar series of industrial revolutions. The very drive to travel space is no different than our own spread across the planet.

The alternative is that habitable planets are scarce in which case, the aliens could just wipe us out. The parental alien concept, where they are prepared to slightly intefere but not enough to solve the problems is derived from religion and is implausible. Either intefere or don’t interfere but a little bit of ineffective tinkering is to quote Spock ‘illogical’.

That assumes the “parental aliens” are logical beings. It’s quite possible the alien race had their own far-left SJW insanity in their history. Perhaps they never fully recovered and thus any planet that doesn’t meet their exactly standards are full of Nazi’s that need to be punished for their “crimes”

The Honorable Charles Bolden, Jr.
NASA Administrator
NASA Headquarters
Washington, D.C. 20546-0001

Dear Charlie,

We, the undersigned, respectfully request that NASA and the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) refrain from including unproven remarks in public releases and websites. We believe the claims by NASA and GISS, that man-made carbon dioxide is having a catastrophic impact on global climate change are not substantiated, especially when considering thousands of years of empirical data. With hundreds of well-known climate scientists and tens of thousands of other scientists publicly declaring their disbelief in the catastrophic forecasts, coming particularly from the GISS leadership, it is clear that the science is NOT settled.

The unbridled advocacy of CO2 being the major cause of climate change is unbecoming of NASA’s history of making an objective assessment of all available scientific data prior to making decisions or public statements.

As former NASA employees, we feel that NASA’s advocacy of an extreme position, prior to a thorough study of the possible overwhelming impact of natural climate drivers is inappropriate. We request that NASA refrain from including unproven and unsupported remarks in its future releases and websites on this subject. At risk is damage to the exemplary reputation of NASA, NASA’s current or former scientists and employees, and even the reputation of science itself.

For additional information regarding the science behind our concern, we recommend that you contact Harrison Schmitt or Walter Cunningham, or others they can recommend to you.

Thank you for considering this request.

Sincerely,

(Attached signatures)

This does kind of explain why the Navy has instituted an outlet for reporting UFO sighting without being in danger of losing your position, rank or AD status. This is because Navy planes routinely run across UFOs when flying over large waterbodies (oceans) and since they record everything with their gun cameras, sometimes in the infrared spectrum, it shows there is something there.

No, that is not a joke. Here’s the Navy Times report: https://www.navytimes.com/off-duty/military-culture/2019/04/25/aliens-ahoy-navy-developing-guidelines-on-reporting-ufo-sightings/

It seems the recorded sightings are picking up in number, too, since Pres. Trump announced a few weeks ago that he wants to establish a US Space Force.

Well, we didn’t know about sprites and jets until they were recorded by astronauts on the ISS, did we?

UFOs are likely. Extraterrestrial beings are possible. It is philosophy for most people. It may be science that has been hidden from general knowledge. From a scientific perspective, it cannot, should not, be dismissed outright. And, unlike extra-universal entities, these beings, their technology, and their space, may be directly accessible through human perception and means.

Genesis, chapter 6 relates the case of an intelligent alien species (not space aliens but fallen angels, “sons of God”) interbreeding with humans. This mating produced giant human/demon hybrids called the “Nephilim.” It was partly because of this that God destroyed the Earth in the Flood.

So this guy doesn’t have a new story, he’s just turning an old story upside down – instead of the hybrids bringing destruction, they’re like the government: they’re here to help.

Ok, this sounds very weird, but hey that is one of the science’s points, dealing with the weirding, some way or another.

But still even in that given context, it will depend in the conceptual definition of terms used.
In this case the definition of the concept “Alien”.
As far as I can tell, that definition does not by default accommodates the meaning of “extraterrestrial” or “not of this world” or “out of this world”, in the main basic conceptual meaning.

So, at some point we got to consider that “characters” in the consideration of “history” of humanity, like
from the far back, like Gilgamesh, or Noah, or Abraham, or Moses, or Hannibal, or Mark Anthony, or Alexander the Great, or Socrates, or Da Vinci, or Aristotle, or Pilate,
or Joan of Arc, or Descartes, or Alan Turing, or so many others in far and between, could only be addressed in the concept of, too “Alien” for our liking…and consideration.

Where, well, Joan of Arc, is quite what it may be considered as the 100 carat Mozart “Alien” in that prospect… far too “Alien” by the act of her achievement, like no one before or after.
A female, a girl, a woman…far too “Alien” to be considered otherwise in the historical terms…

So what really the definition of “Alien” is, or will, or it could be?

Not “extraterrestrial” by default… or “out worldly”, by default.

Oh, well, still me exploiting here, maybe… 🙂

Well I reckon there’s a distinct lack of imagination in evidence hereabouts.

Issac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Michael Crichton & Robert Heinlein would have been well disappointed to read most of these replies.
Even David Icke, top researcher, would be miffed.

I’ve read Timothy Good’s Above Top Secret The Worldwide UFO Cover Up.
& genius journalist Jim Marrs’ Our Occulted History, Do The Global Elite Conceal Ancient Aliens? I just started re-reading his Alien Agenda.
Opening sentences:
The controversy over the existence of UFOs is over. UFOs are real.
Might give a clue.
I also enjoyed Icke’s The Biggest Secret.

All these books are well referenced & indexed. All are enjoyable reads.

Personally, I reckon we know just a tad more about science & time & space travel than an isolated Amazonian tribe knows about the model T Ford.
& remember Ford said: “History is bunk.” Another way of saying this is “history is written by the winners.”
Weird fact, there is tons more evidence of UFOs than there is of Jesus, who appears only in The Bible. Even his contemporary Josephus makes no mention of the Man who could walk on water. A curious omission.
You should read Icke’s theory on the origins of Jesus.

The Bible is apparently based on way older Sumerian clay tablet records which tell of mankind created by a race of aliens who mixed their own DNA with that of Earth hominids, via test tube experiments, using an alien host mother. The virgin birth?

I’d start with Marrs’ Occulted History. Is the Moon an alien spacecraft?

As to your theory about the origin of the Bible, perhaps if you knew 1/10th as much you think you do, you would realize what an idiot you are.
