It's OK
07/25/2021
A meteor was witnessed over Oklahoma and parts of Northern Texas. Caught by most on dashcams or doorbell cams it came and went very quickly with no evidence of fragments making it to the ground. The DPA was unable to get a reading on this incident so we cannot confirm if it was Elbie-free.

Happy Asteroid Day!
06/30/2021
International Asteroid Day was started in 2014. Many agencies and education institutes are jumping on the bandwagon to educate and bring awareness to our near earth neighbors that frequent our skies. Check your local science museum or planetarium for events.

NASA has reported that a potentially dangerous asteroid passed by Earth earlier this week. Measuring approximately 600 feet across it has the potential to cause significant damage if had crossed our path. Based on it's distance and current trajectory there is no possible way for it have hit Earth. We are happy to report that it is Elbie-free.

Lost at Sea
05/27/2021
Residents across several counties in the northwest corner of Ireland were out and about enjoying the Super Moon when they were treated to a bonus treat. A streak of light appearing quite low in the sky caught everyone's attention. As it broke up in the atmosphere it flared and disappeared out over the ocean, leaving many residents with a sense of wonder. The DPA does not have any information on the composition of this NEO and if was or was not Elbie-free.

Fireball Over Boca Raton
04/15/2021
Spectators witnessed a streak of light in the night sky before it flashed and disappeared. It is estimated that this meteor would not have been much bigger than a car and therefore not a threat to us. If any fragments survived entering the atmosphere they would be very small.

A small asteroid passed by Earth yesterday. It is one of 25,000 such objects that we encounter. If it had been pulled into the atmosphere it was too small to survive the entry resulting in it's total destruction. We can confirm that it it was Elbie-free.

Mistaken Identity
03/25/2021
People across Portland and Washington reported a seeing a fireball earlier this week. Upon further investigation it was discovered that what people were witnessing was actually a Space X rocket returning to Earth. The rocket was mostly destroyed upon reentry as it was an unexpected failaure on the part of the device and not intended to return.

Vermont and Canada Heard it First
03/10/2021
It is a rare sight to see a fireball during the day. Because of that the object crashing through the atmosphere was large enough and moving fast enough to create a loud boom and rattle windows. It was only these other factors that drew people's attention to the sky where a bright pinpoint of light was barely visible against the pale blue sky. The estimated speed was 47,000 miles per hour. To compare, the average commercial airplane cruises around 500 miles an hour. This object was reported to be Elbie-free.

Bad Omen?
01/21/2021
Several dozen asteroids have passed by Earth in the last 24 hours. This has garnered attention due to the events in America. But as you can see from the history of our newsfeed this sort of activity is actually very normal and should not be taken as any sort of sign regarding human activities. NASA tracks as many NEOs as possible and it is non-stop. NEOs are a regular part of life in the Milky Way Galaxy.

Hayabusa Quick Take
01/02/2021
In our circles, Hyabusa is a machine. Developed by Japan's space agency for the express purpose of studying N.E.O.s. It has been very successful at landing on asteroids in flight and recording everything possible, speed, composition, trajectory. The samples collected are valuable because they are returned to Earth without facing the destructive reentry process. The samples help us to understand some of the bigger mysteries of the universe like what elements are out there and the age of various belt systems and galaxies.
Hayabusa is equipped with sensors capable detecting Elbie energy. To date, it has not encountered any.

Close Shave for Planet Earth
11/17/2020
A small asteroid passed by at the same proximity of the International Space Station. The NEO approached our planet from the sun side, hiding it's approach from most of our detection equipment. No Elbie energy was detected at this time. However, unless it is destroyed or thrown off course by some other object it is due to return to our orbit in 2052. It could pick up Elbie in it's travels. We'll have to wait and see.

Fireball Over Mexico
10/10/2020
Several security cameras captured the image of a bright fireball falling through the sky in Northern Mexico. While it is probably that there are fragments to be found, most of them would be very small. Nothing large enough to carry Elbie energy.
As a reminder Elbie energy needs almost immediate contact with a host after making Earthfall. Any fragments found in the hours or days later would be completely safe to handle.

Fireball Over Cincinatti
09/30/2020
Social media outlets went crazy with reports of flash of light over the region. The DPA received a few phone calls. After further investigation it was quickly determined that all fragments were burned up in the atmosphere. If there had been and Elbie energy signatures they would have been burned up with the rest of the meteor.
The DPA welcomes and any all communication when it comes to sightings. Please do not hesitate to contact us.

The last one was compared to the is size of a car. This most recent is being compared to the size of a Tesla...which is also a car. And like the last one, it was the closest a NEO has ever come, between Earth and the moon. But again, this happens all the time. The DPA scans these things on a regular basis for energy reading but the proximity and size are not factors that concern us. The origin is more important for our purposes. Seriously, these kind of event happen to Earth all the time so please do not read anything into the one coming in November.

No Near Miss
06/15/2020
NASA reported last week about about a large asteroid passing by Earth prompting discussion about asteroid deterrent strategies yet again. The DPA also monitors near earth objects as a proactive precaution. Objects like these pass by Earth on a regular basis. Our galaxy is very active, a lot goes on out there. So while it is good to be aware of these events there is no reason to think our planet is in any immediate danger.

NEOs Near Us
04/15/2020
Near earth objects frequent our planet and the moon all the time. ESA's NELIOTA has been studying the frequency of these impacts on the moon's surface. It is the policy of the DPA to monitor all NEOs that pass Earth. On occasion a few of these objects have been carrying Elbie. But the moon's low gravity makes it impossible for Elbie energy to sustain their natural state. To date all Elbie energy that have made it o the moon burn upon impact. To learn more about this, visit HERE.

Elbie Behavior Beyond Earth
01/16/2020
Asteroids, comets, and meteors travel around our galaxy for centuries. Sometimes they carry Elbie energy with them. It is still a mystery to us how Elbie operate in these various environments. As far as we have been able to learn,the mass and composition of an object play a big part in whether it can carry Elbie. We have yet to detect Elbie energy on other planets. A planet like Vesus has so much going on in it's atmosphere it could have Elbie but we just do not have enough information at this time.

What About Off -world Meteors and Asteroids?
09/17/2019
The Milky Way Galaxy is a very active place. Recently an impact was filmed on Jupiter. Asteroids and meteors pummel celestial bodies all the time. It is possible that several of those projectiles carry Elbie on them but we do not monitor for Elbie when not directly related to Earth. It is possible that one day, as our ability to navigate around our solar system we would change our policy on this. Some areas of research involving Elbie include the possibility of using Elbie as a renewable energy source. Perhaps the day will come when we can harvest Elbie from meteors/asteroids in flight to use as power for interstellar flight. It is an fun to think about the possibilities.

Returning NEO
06/07/2019
The large asteroid that passed by Earth last month is no stranger to our system. The object known as 1999 KW4 was first recorded in 1999. This is it's fourth sighting since then. The DPA was created in 1999. Detection equipment was not available then or at the time KW4 made a fly by again. This time we were able to do a long range scan and record that KW4 is Ebie-free. Chances are it will remain so, but since it will return again, we can scan it each time a way of detecting any changes that have taken place in other parts of galaxy. KW4 has become a kind of control. If it has a signifigant change of any kind on it's next pass it will give agencies a lead on changes happening in the wider galaxy.

NEO Fly By Today
01/13/2019
A large meteor detected by NASA will pass by our planet today. Long range sensors have detected possible Elbie energy signatures. There will not be any contact with the meteor and it will be allowed to continue on it's trajectory through our galaxy. The DPA would like to remind the you that only direct contact with Elbie energy poses a public saftey concern. So no human contact will be made, there is no need for concern.

Leonid Shower This Week
11/15/2018
This annual event is one of the best of the year. Because of it's affiliation with Elbie energy it also means a hyper awareness of Elbie and lot of extra calls to our call center. This event does not affect Elbie or their hosts. Any activity is usually based on paranoia and not actual incidents. Do not let this deter you from enjoying this spectacular show.

Just a Fly by
04/18/2018
It has been reported that an asteroid had passed by our planet was very close. Distance is relative. It was still more than 100,000 miles. While some scientists define this as close, the object was still too far for our sensors to detect any Elbie energy. There was never any chance of any debris falling to Earth from it, Elbie-free or otherwise.

Rogue NASA
01/26/2017
Due to perhaps the use of the word "planetary" in our name, many people think that our organization is a subdivision of NASA. The DPA is actually under the umbrella of the Department of Homeland Security and therefore completely unrelated to the space agency. We have and do collaborate with NASA several times a year but it is the policy of the DPA to not express any specific political rhetoric as an organization. The members of the DPA are free to be a part of any and all legitimate forms and expressions of democracy.
The DPA mission of building bridges of mutual understanding and transparency are always necessary aspects to good government and civil society.

Another Fireball Spotted in Russia
01/12/2017
Russia gets more than it's fair share of meteor activity. Because of the proliferation of dash cams there, footage is often available of these awesome events. However, most dash cams do not provide a high enough quality of image for our technology to detect Elbie energy. In the specific incident from Arkhangelsk earlier this months, all fragments burned in the atmosphere so the possibility of new Elbie energy is null.

Meteor Filmed In Spain
12/16/2016
Some fantastic footage captured images of a meteor over Spain and was reported by hundreds. Using the technology previously mentioned to detect Elbie energy from video footage the DPA was able to determine that this incident was Elbie-free without ever having to leave our offices in California.
This meteor was from the Geminids meteor shower and no Elbie energy has ever originated from this annual event.

Fireball Over Florida
11/19/2016
Thanks to a new technology created by the DPA RND we can now review footage taken by stationary cameras, satellites, and citizens alike we can now determine of a meteorite has Elbie energy. If the footage is a high enough definition this can be done. The technology will work on old footage or low grade images.
There are already several satellites and cameras with filters on them to detect Elbie energy but if a meteor does not pass by within range of one of these already equipped devices, we could not get any evidence of Elbie energy except by locating the fragments.
This means that we can expand our monitoring of activity beyond both geography and the present moment, effectively widening our net to unlimited. Using this exciting new technology to exam the footage from this video, we are happy to report that this meteor was in fact Elbie-free. If you believe otherwise please contact us.

Fireball Over Queensland
10/03/2016
Australia is no stranger to meteor impacts. The most recent occurrence in Queensland landed in the ocean but only after scaring locals as it passed. Since it has landed in the ocean there no chance of recovery. We have every reason to believe it was Elbie-free.

A teenager in the UK came very close to immediate and direct contact with a meteorite fresh from space. While we know that it is possible to be in such close proximity to such extraordinary events we also know the anxiety they can create. For the peace of mind of all, the DPA can officially declare this incident to be Elbie-free.

Extraterrestrial Elements
07/07/2016
Meteorites bring with them elements of other worlds. We have developed a few tools for detecting Elbie energy signatures from afar but they leave little evidence behind once they are gone. The hard elements found in meteors from distant places are fascinating but have little to do with Elbie. Read more about it HERE.

Sighting Over Australia
05/08/2016
Since the discovery of the Gregory cluster the government of Australia has had the means needed to detect Elbie energy as they see fit. The DPA has been called to the area since the Gregory cluster. We have full confidence in the Australian government to handle anything that comes their way. Gympie has not been reported to us as a hot spot for Eblie. Even so, it turns out that reported sightings were actually not a meteorite at but bits of debris from orbit.

Increased Activity?
03/12/2016
So far 2016 has been a banner year for falling space objects. We have received some questions regarding what some people perceive to an upswing in activity. Meteor activity gets a lot a press coverage these days. We would like to state for the record that any "increased" activity is due to two factors. One being the aforementioned increase in interest by both the public and the scientific community as well as improved technology. Every year our ability to see farther and farther beyond our own solar system allows us to study and know more about all the cosmic activity that has been going on around for thousands of years. So activity is not increasing just our awareness of the activity.

Cordoba Meteor Elbie-Free
03/05/2016
After dazzling several witnesses across Europe a sizable meteorite made earthfall in Spain. Due to increased activity in the region over the few days prior the DPA had focused it's observation efforts in the area. Using the filters available we can be certain that all activity in the area has been free of Elbie energy signatures.

Second Sighting
01/29/2016
Another fireball was spotted over Georgia this month. The occurrence of two events so close together in time and space is a coincidence. We can say with confidence that this meteor was Elbie-free. Elbie cannot control their journey in space and cannot exert any influence on the objects they piggy back on to. There is no reason to believe that Georgia or the states around are of any interest to Elbie as they do not have the ability o have interest or understanding prior to their contact with humans.

Fireball Over Georgia
12/20/2015
A fireball was recently sighted across several Southern states. Several witnesses claimed to see it break apart in up to ten pieces could have made possible landfall. As this time no one has reported finding any fragments. Even if found the likely of damage would have been low due to the small size of the pieces. As usual, we like to remind the public that our hotline is open twenty-four hours a day if you would like to report any unusual behavior.

Continuing Education
11/23/2015
Most of the scientific knowledge we have about Elbie is within the context of their properties on Earth and in human hosts. Our research facilities have learned a lot about the human brain and several neurological disorders with our extraterrestrial allies. What is still a big mystery yet to be unraveled is where do Elbie come from? Like many elements in deep space we have a long way to go before we will understand what it all means and how it all works. One theory is that Elbie energy is formed during other creative/destructive events such the collapse of black holes and stars going nova.
Could the event in THIS linked article be one such event? Only time will tell. As we continue our journey toward the stars we will have plenty of time to learn and understand all the amazing things the universe has to offer.

Annual Announcement
11/05/2015
Since the first recorded encounter with Elbie happened during the Leonid meteor shower November tends to be a busy month for us. So we would like to remind the public that no other Elbie have been found in conjunction with the Leonid meteor shower. Elbie are not associated with specific events like any of the annual meteor showers and the public should enjoy their majestic beauty when the opportunity presents itself.

Meteor in Argentina
07/31/2015
The fireball seen over parts of Argentina was reported to be unusually green. The color of meteors is determined by their composition. Different elements burn different colors. The color is no indication of Elbie presence. Elbie can only be detected with special software and filters. We have no reason to believe that this meteor of any concern to the populace.

Huge Meteor Dazzle Eastern Seaboard
12/30/2014
There have been concerns over the particular brightness of last night's sighting. The brightness and coloring are a result of the natural occurring metals and compounds that make up the composition of the meteor. IT was in no way related to the presence of Elbie energy. If you find any fragments and would like them tested, please contact us.

Meteor Over Colorado
09/04/2014
Due to the lack of availability, no scans were taken of the lone meteor. While it was witnessed by many there have been no reports of any fragments making it to the ground. Regardless of the lack of confirmation, because there has not been any contact of any kind, the DPA has declared the area Elbie-free at this time.

Sighting Over Vancouver
08/18/2014
The Perseid Meteor shower, along with the Super Moon, made for spectacular sky watching this year. With all meteor showers comes meteorites. We try to keep up with all reports whenever we can, but during these times the DPA is especially busy. There is convincing evidence for an earthfall in the Vancouver area but that has not been any concrete information to go on. If anyone finds actual fragments or experiences the effects of being a host (see FAQs page) please contact us immediately. At this time the DPA has no evidence of new Elbie in the United States.

Fireball Over Eastern Seaboard
07/17/2014
Due to the frequency of fireballs on the East Coast we have installed detection equipment at several observatories and towers to help in research as well as tracking. This most recent incident has been cleared and declared Elbie-free.

Regarding UK Meteor Strike
06/30/2014
We have received several inquires about the meteorite over Wales this week. We can confirm that our scanners did not detect any Elbie energy. However we would like to remind the public that at this time that the DPA is a division of the Department of Homeland Security, a cabinet department of the United States federal government. On occasion the DPA is asked to assist or consult at the request of other countries but it does not have any jurisdiction outside of the Unites States and it's territories. An Elbie outside of the United States are not our responsibility or concern.

Meteor Clouds in Northern Hemisphere
06/22/2014
There has been some concerns about the bluish clouds that can currently be viewed in parts of the Northern hemisphere. They are a result of ice crystals from meteors that have been scanned and found Elbie-free. The conditions that make this phenomenon possible would not be good conditions for the presence of Elbie. Even if there was Elbie energy could be present it is outside the atmosphere would in no have any effect on people on the ground.

Phoenix Fireball
04/13//2014
Due to the close proximity of this event to an urban population center the Department has sent team to the Phoenix region. At this time the fragments are still being located. No one has reported any behaviors consistent with first contact. Our officers will remain in the area for the next few days. If the fragments are still not located and no other incidents are reported the DPA will consider this an Elbie-free event.
If anyone in the Phoenix area sees anything out of the ordinary you may report it directly to us.

Meteorites On the Moon
02/27/2014
Video was posted few days ago about a meteorite that hit our moon. This event actually occurred in September but we have received inquiries about this incident. According to our readings the object that hit our moon is Elbie-free. It does however bring up an interesting question. If it had had Elbie, with the moons weaker gravitational field, is it possible for Elbie energy to remain intact without the need of a host? The short answer is we don't know. It has not been determined how much force it takes to hold a cluster together. What is required on Earth is different than what would be required on the moon or in deep space. Until we can observe Elbie energy in deep space we will not be able to answer the question.

Eastern Seaboard Activity
02/25/2014
Over the last week there have been lots of meteor activity in the North East. While the DPA only has one location, we do work with other agencies to help with our research. The equipment used to detect Elbie energy is available to other agencies across the country. Despite all of the activity none of them resulted in meteorites on the ground.

Leonids Meteor Shower
11/13/2013
The upcoming meteor shower is an annual event and does not have any association with Elbie type energy. It is only on the rarest occasion that a meteor shower will result in any fragments making through the atmosphere. There is no reason to be concerned. We encourage people to bundle up and enjoy it. Best viewing will be on the 16th.

Perseides Meteor Shower
08/18/2013
This year's annual event was especially beautiful. During these sort of events we get lots of calls and e-mails asking if there could be any new Elbie. Meteor showers are often too far out of range for our sensors to detect if they contain Elbie energy. Near earth objects can sometimes be scanned under the right conditions. But to date none of these things have resulted in a positive detection of Elbie energy. This just further emphasizes the uniqueness of our situation with the clusters we have detected. Of the three clusters we know the dates of their arrival on our planet are very far apart. The chance of another Elbie event in the near future is not likely.
To our knowledge there have been no fragments that have made earthfall in the United States as a result of this year's event. As the moment the jurisdiction of the DPA is restricted to the United States. At the request of other governments we are happy to investigate and assist. The technology we have developed to help detect Elbie energy is shared with other authorities in a cooperative effort to create an atmosphere of scientific exploration and peace.
As always, in the event of a meteor fragment making it to the ground you are welcome to report it to the DPA for investigation should you suspect it not an ordinary space object.

Meteor Earthfall
07/12/2013
Several sightings were reported over the central US. Due to the distance and sever fragmentation of this object the DPA cannot determine if the object was Elbie free. Because of the distance and fragmentation it is safe to say that if Elbie had been present all energy would have been burned up before coming into contact with the ground or any people.

Meteor Earthfall
05/30/2013
Several fragments were found this week after a fireball was reported in the New England and North Eastern United States. At the request of authorities we sent a small team test the fragments. What was presented to our team was too small to hold Elbie energy and we in now way of any threat to the public in this way.
Fragments need to be fairly substantial in size and contact with humans immediate if Elbie energy is to be preserved. The conditions were not conducive for Elbie to have remained viable in this situation.

got Elbie? National Campaign Off to a Good Start
05/20/2013
The DPA's national awareness campaign kicked off in San Jose this week with six our our officers led by Bronwyn James. Officers were available to members of the public to ask questions about Elbie and the DPA. It was a beautiful day and a wonderful group of people. Our team had many happy interactions with everyone they spoke to. It was a successful event for all parties.
If you see one of our officers or representatives at any time tweet us at @thedpa_us. Check the "got Elbie" page for updates on the next event.

Welcome Bronwyn James
04/12/2013
On behalf of Commanders Draegg and Eriksson we would like to welcome our newest support staff member Bronwyn James. She has been hired for a new position, Symbiotic Relations Specialist. Her warm and out going personality make her the perfect person for this job. The Symbiotic Relations Specialist was a position we created to give the public a go to person for everything regarding Elbie and being a host. While not a permanent host herself, she has experienced what it is like to have an Elbie partner and she can speak from her first time encounter with Elbie. She has conducted extensive interviews with current hosts and converses regularly with our in house Elbie in order to cultivate a greater understanding of them. The leadership of the DPA believe that this position will become vital as public interest in the Elbie grows.

DA14 and Russian Meteorites
02/17/2013
It has been an astounding week for cosmic activity. Due to the extensive damage in Russia we did dispatch a small team to ensure that the fragments that did make to the ground were Elbie free. While there they assisted with some of the emergency crews to help alleviate the already strained resources.
Just a few hours later asteroid DA14 passed by our planet at an extraordinarily close range. We did receive some e-mails from the public asking that if DA14 had an Elbie cluster attached, would it's close proximity to Earth cause the cluster to break off and enter our atmosphere to eventually make contact with humans.
First we want to assure the public that through spectral analysis we can say the DA14 is Elbie free. Elbie have a very unique energy signature and it can be detected from space with the right filters. But we also want to address the concern of Elbie migrating from near earth objects.
Elbie are very susceptible to gravitational forces. If an object of significant mass passes bay a free floating cluster in deep space the cluster will be pulled toward it and until a stronger force comes along it will stay with that mass. While Earth's gravity is greater than that of DA14's it would have been too far away to have dislodged a cluster from the asteroid.
Until we start exploring deep space we only need to be concerned with the presence of Elbie when a meteorite makes it to the ground.

Novato Meteor Earthfall
10/21/2012
A fireball was witnessed by many in the Bay Area on October 17th. After a thorough search and some calls from the public the first fragments have been found. For complete details please refer to the CAMS website. The DPA officers who went to the area did scan the found piece and it is Elbie free.
As we have stated before meteorites of this size are too small to have a cluster piggybacking on it. It is the DPA's policy to go to crash sights whenever possible because there is no way to predict how big the fragments will be. Also, in the case of the Novato meteor, it crashed in a highly populated area increasing the chances of migration had there been any Elbie present.

The fire currently burning in the area is moving away from our facility. As a precaution all non-personnel have been evacuated from our facility to a safe distance. All Elbie remain on the property and have not been moved. Should relocation be deemed necessary extra precaution will be taken for the their protection and that of the general population.

30th Olympic Games
07/27/2012
Because hosts typically have enhanced strength, endurance, and faster reaction times the International Olympic Committee requested that all athletes be scanned for Elbie. The DPA delcares with confidence that as of the opening ceremony all athletes are Elbie free. Since Elbie can transfer easily from person to person, athletes will be periodically scanned throughout the games to ensure they remain purely human.

Miami Homeless Man Attack
05/28/2012
The DPA would like to address concerns that the displaced man from Miami that attacked another displaced person is not a the result of contact with Elbie or any known hosts. While being a host can cause erratic behavior it is rare.

Meteor Earthfall

Sutter's Mill, CA
Several small fragments from the meteorite that crashed on the 22nd have been recovered. A thorough search is still underway. The DPA was called to the crash sight for evaluation. The pieces were scanned as a precaution This meteor does not contain any energy readings and has been declared Elbie free.
Like many meteorite's that make it to Earth they are usually quite small fragments. While these small pieces retain an internal magnetic field it is usually not strong enough to retain a cluster. If this meteor had a cluster with it the energy would have been lost in the atmosphere.

Fatal Bear Attack
09/09/2008
Regarding a fatal bear attack in the Angeles National Forest. Due to the proximity of the animal to the Arcadia earthfall sight, some local residents have suggested that the animal has come into contact with Elbie. There are no recorded cases of Elbie using animals as hosts. No host has ever reported an Elbie being transferred to them from an animal. To the best of our knowledge, Elbie have only been transferred by human to human contact.

Driver Rampage Unrelated to Elbie
09/30/2006
The DPA would like to officially state that the driver of an SUV that intentionally ran down pedestrians in San Francisco earlier this month is not a host. The driver claimed to hear voices directing him to these actions. At no point did he claim to be a host. He has been evaluated by members of the health care community, independent of the DPA, and determined to be mentally unstable. Upon further investigation it has been confirmed that this man is not and has never been a host. Our condolences to those families who were effected by this tragedy.

The DPA does not have any official affiliates. Various organizations or individuals have voluntarily aided the DPA on various occasions. The most well known is Doctor Patrick Lowell. As an expert in nuero-psychology he has become a leading expert on human/Elbie interactions. We often ask for his assistance with hosts. He has been gracious enough to offer his services but remains an independent member of the scientific community.
