On October 7 2009 an extra-ordinary event that occurred in the skies above Moscow, Russia took the world by storm.

A bizarre halo shaped UFO or cloud formation appeared overhead (see bottom video). The media reported on the event globally and scientists in every nation debated what the formation was.

Some alleged that the event was a mere optical illusion caused by the sun while others alleged that the object was indeed an alien UFO or even mother-ship.

Now after almost a year of study a group of Russian academics have revealed that the halo was in fact a message from benevolent ETs warning Earthlings of an impending asteroid that is set to impact Earth (see video below).

The analysis is based on a number of factors but in particular the specific Moscow landmarks that the halo appeared over. According to the scientists the message also indicates that we are in a position to avoid catastrophe if we are willing to accept instructions from ETs.
