Numbers Stations and Super Moons

Did you all watch the blood moon lunar eclipse last night?  It was a great night for a stroll with a lover;)  Looking up in the star studded sky and seeing the never-ending wonder of nature and the universe puts things into perspective. 

There is so much going on that we just don't see.  Not only are most people completely oblivious to the supernatural powers that are all around us, most are also oblivious to what's being invisibly thrown around in the airwaves. 

Take the creepy 'numbers stations' as an example.  The five-words-or-less-version is that they are short wave radio transmissions that consist of code for military purposes.  I remember coming across a numbers station when I was a kid as my dad had a radio that picked up signals from around the world.  I don't know *how* he got that radio, but it's one of those big, old wooden honkers the size of a bookcase.  I remember tuning that radio ever so carefully picking up feint signals in the wee hours of the night.  I was fascinated with it.   It is believed that 'numbers stations' are still used because sometimes low tech is the best way to combat high tech.  Plus, the signal has staying power and can be picked up in remote areas. 

The Swedish Rhapsody posted below was believed to transmit to Germany and Russia.  Creepy.  Fascinating.  Look up, people.  You have NO idea what's being flung around the skies.  Seriously.
