Dismissing the conspiracies using the power of facts and science. Bye bye flat Earth, Alien interventions and other random nonsense. Let’s go behind the lies!
(7/7) us that loves these rapt tales, but let’s also keep our feet firmly grounded—and no little green men in sight. Got any thoughts on how urban legends grow to galactic proportions? It’s fun to speculate, but funnier when we debunk these myths with science and reason.

(3/7) despite the dramatic folklore, the Glienicke Bridge is not the epicentre of alien lore or otherworldly claims—thank goodness for that! Yet, it is a classic backdrop for tales of hidden secrets. The bridge represented a silent, yet loud, symbol—a stone whisperer of the clandestine operations

(6/7) not alone out there? It's certainly a great plot for a sci-fi movie but not quite what science and facts have to say about our starlit intrigue. But, hey, I’m eager to hear what you think about these ground-bound solutions. Sure, it's not as romantic as cosmic visitors, but isn’t it

(2/8) light streaking across the sky, a frightened group of local residents, and an otherworldly creature lurking in the woods. Sounds like the perfect plot for a science fiction novel, doesn’t it? Yet, for some, it’s a bona fide encounter with extraterrestrial life. But let's pull this story apart
