What Is Coming From Space on June 3rd?

Does this individual know something we don't?

The media captured a recent moment with an oft-heard phrase, "a history of mental health issues."

Let's look behind the quick burying of a recent story as yet another "lone nut" distraction from day-to-day life.

Psychiatric disorders are no laughing matter, and are a burden to family and loved ones. But what if there are twilight messages being transmitted, not through magical thinking, but via prophetic moments?

The man above, in a weird costume, threatened a television station on Thursday, April 28, 2016.

This occurred north of Druid Park Drive and south of Rockrose Avenue, in the midst of several television stations.

The progressively bizarre scene unfolded when the young man walked into the lobby of Fox affiliate WBFF, known as Fox45, on Baltimore's TV Hill, just blocks away from CBS Baltimore and NBC affiliate WBAL-TV.

At 1:20 p.m. the suspect barricaded himself in the building. Police were unsure how far he made it into the building in the 2000 block of West 41st Street.

The man, wearing what Baltimore Police Department spokesman T.J. Smith said was a panda suit and what employees described as a hedgehog costume, gave a flash drive to a security guard and told him he wanted the station to broadcast its contents.

In the vestibule, the man in the onesie displayed that flash drive and said he wanted to air information comparable to the Panama Papers, FOX45 News Director Mike Tomko told reporters. The Panama Papers are leaked documents that alleged some world leaders used secret offshore companies and accounts to hide billions of dollars.

Smith said police don't know what was on the drive, but the security guard told CBS Baltimore, "It pretty much had to do with anything with astronomy -- black holes, the sun, about it being liquid and gas, and he just wanted to say that the government was wrong in thinking about the way they do when it comes to anything in space."

Shortly afterward, Alex Michael Brizzi, 25, of Elkridge, Maryland in Howard County. was shot and wounded by police in Thursday's incident. He was treated in a Baltimore hospital for injuries that are not life threatening, Baltimore Police Commissioner Kevin Davis said at a news conference Friday.

Brizzi wore an animal onesie, surgical mask, and did carry what appeared to be explosives. A panda? A hedgehog? "This outfit appears to be associated with Japanese anime culture," Davis said.

A bomb squad robot was brought in. "The robot was able to disarm and disrobe Brizzi," Davis said.

Brizzi claimed he was carrying explosives. But the "bomb" turned out to be a life preserver outfitted with wires and chocolate candy bars wrapped in aluminum foil. He was not wearing a real bomb.

The suspect's father Edward Brizzi, who spoke to CNN affiliate WBFF Thursday, said his son had lost his job, had broken up with his girlfriend, and appeared to have a nervous breakdown.

"Just talked with the dad of the 25-year-old who made the threats against WBFF FOX 45 today. The dad says his son was convinced the world was ending on June 3rd. He says his son does not have a history of mental health issues, but two weeks ago had what he called a break. Video starts with him describing that moment two weeks ago when his son was found sleeping in a neighbor's yard," tweeted Shelley Orman, a reporter for FOX45 News in Baltimore, Maryland, on April 28, 2016.

The name Brizzi is of Italian origin, from a short form of the personal names Albrizzo (a diminutive of Alberico) or Fabrizio, or from an unattested Germanic personal name, Berizo, or from the ethnic name from Latin Brittius “Breton” (of the Imperial Roman Army).

A special recent tattoo added by Brizzi, meaning as yet unknown. But probably a "fallen angel."

Police are ruling out terrorism, and say mental illness may have played a role. 

“How long shall they kill our prophets while we stand aside and look?” – Bob Marley

Mental health is a complex subject. With a background in psychiatric social work, having studied under Sophie Freud (born 1924, Sigmund Freud's granddaughter) at Simmons School of Social Work, I take this subject seriously. But what if yesterday's prophets are some of today's mental health patients?

We’re weeding out our geniuses. We’re killing off our prophets. We’re drugging our messiahs.
Were she alive today, Sylvia Plath would be on anti-depressants. Salvador Dali would be on anti-psychotics. Beethoven would be on Lithium. Newton would likely be committed as well as heavily drugged for his multiple, pervasive mental illness symptoms.
Don’t even get me started on Jesus Christ. ~ Vironika Tugalenva, Rethinking Mental Illness: Are We Drugging Our Prophets and Healers?

Why would Alex Bruzzi target "something" dealing with space as "happening on June 3rd?" or even that he was "convinced the world was ending on June 3rd"?

Let's look at what others are saying about June 3rd? What has happened on June 3rd? And why "space" and June 3rd?

On June 3, 1769, the British navigator, Captain James Cook, British astronomer Charles Green and Swedish naturalist Daniel Solander observed and recorded a transit of Venus across the sun on the island of Tahiti during Cook's first voyage around the world.

On June 3, 1948, the 200" (5.08 m) Hale telescope was dedicated at Palomar Observatory.

On June 3, 1965, astronaut Edward White became the first American to "walk" in space, during the flight of Gemini 4.

On June 3, 1966, Gemini 9 launched; it was the 7th U.S. 2-man flight, with American astronauts Stafford and Cernan.

On June 3, 1969, saw the last episode of Star Trek airing on NBC ("Turnabout Intruder").

On June 3, 1980, the crew of Soyuz 36 returned to Earth aboard Soyuz 35.

On June 3, 2002, NASA launched the $159 million Contour space probe to study the composition of comets. Scientists lost contact on August 15, 2002.

On June 3, 2010, in Russia, a male crew of three Russians, a Frenchman, an Italian-Colombian and a Chinese began a 520-day experiment in a windowless capsule, to simulate a 250-day journey to Mars, a 30-day surface exploration phase and 240 days return trip.

Intriguingly, in limited release on June 3, 2016, is a new film entitled Approaching the Unknown. Captain William D. Stanaforth (Mark Strong) is on a one-way solo mission, taking humanity’s first steps toward colonizing Mars. Although the entire world is watching him, he is completely alone in a dark and distant sea of stars. Stanaforth rockets bravely through space facing insurmountable odds, but as the journey takes a toll on his life-sustaining systems, he is forced to make impossible choices that threaten his sanity, mission and very existence.

Also, there is the claim, found online, that the Mayan Calendar is "off by 3.5 years" and the date to watch is June 3, 2016! (See here.)

Remember the predictions for the end of the world in 2012? Wrong year, wrong month, wrong day?

Under these new calculations, December 21, 2012 (Gregorian) is actually June 3, 2016 (Mayan Haab calendar). December 21, 2012 plus 1260 days = June 3, 2016.

Watch the skies on June 3, 2016.

Astronaut Edgar Mitchell, Believer of Roswell UFO Incident, Dies

Edgar Mitchell, 85, one of 12 men to have walked on the moon, died in Lake Worth, Florida on February 4, 2016. Mitchell was born on September 17, 1930, in Hereford, Texas. He considered his hometown Artesia, New Mexico (near Roswell).

Edgar Mitchell on the moon.

Mitchell stepped on the moon twice, on February 5 and 6, 1971. Mitchell spent 33 hours on the moon. The Apollo 14 mission was from January 31 through February 9, 1971. Therefore, he died during on the 45th anniversary of his trip to the moon.

Astronaut Mitchell's Apollo mission involvement was memorialized in the Hall of Fame of DeMolay International, part of the Masonic Fraternity. Mitchell was a member of Artesia Lodge #29 in New Mexico.

After his Apollo success, Mitchell was involved in several projects, some with the Institute of Noetic Sciences, involving the unexplained, paranormal, and human consciousness topics, including UFOs.

Mitchell has publicly expressed his opinions that he is "90 percent sure that many of the thousands of unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, recorded since the 1940s, belong to visitors from other planets". Dateline NBC conducted an interview with Mitchell on April 19, 1996, during which he discussed meeting with officials from three countries who claimed to have had personal encounters with extraterrestrials. He offered his opinion that the evidence for such "alien" contact was "very strong" and "classified" by governments, who were covering up visitations and the existence of alien beings' bodies in places such as Roswell, New Mexico. He further claimed that UFOs had provided "sonic engineering secrets" that were helpful to the U.S. government. Mitchell's book, The Way of the Explorer, discusses his journey into mysticism and space.
In 2004, he told the St. Petersburg Times that a "cabal of insiders" in the U.S. government were studying recovered alien bodies, and that this group had stopped briefing U.S. Presidents after John F. Kennedy. He said, "We all know that UFOs are real; now the question is where they come from."
On July 23, 2008, Edgar Mitchell was interviewed on Kerrang Radio by Nick Margerrison. Mitchell claimed the Roswell crash was real and that aliens have contacted humans several times, but that governments have hidden the truth for 60 years, stating: "I happen to have been privileged enough to be in on the fact that we've been visited on this planet, and the UFO phenomenon is real." In reply, a spokesman for NASA stated: "NASA does not track UFOs. NASA is not involved in any sort of cover-up about alien life on this planet or anywhere in the universe. Dr Mitchell is a great American, but we do not share his opinions on this issue."
In an interview with Fox News on July 25, 2008, Mitchell clarified that his comments did not involve NASA, but quoted unnamed sources, since deceased, at Roswell who confided to him that the Roswell incident did involve an alien craft. Mitchell also claims to have subsequently received confirmation from an unnamed intelligence officer at the Pentagon.
In an interview for AskMen published March 6, 2014, Mitchell said that he had never seen a UFO, that no one had ever threatened him over his claims regarding UFOs, and that any statements about the covering up of UFOs being a worldwide cabal was "just speculation on my part."
In 2015, Mitchell made what Huffington Post U.K. characterized as "the astonishing claim that it was aliens, not diplomacy, which prevented the Cold War from descending into the Third World War." In a Mirror Online interview, Mitchell said "White Sands was a testing ground for atomic weapons – and that's what the extraterrestrials were interested in. They wanted to know about our military capabilities. My own experience talking to people has made it clear the ETs had been attempting to keep us from going to war and help create peace on Earth...."
Edgar Mitchell appeared in the documentaries In the Shadow of the Moon, The Phoenix Lights...We Are Not Alone, and The Living Matrix. Source.

Intriguingly, Mitchell was interviewed frequently about UFOs when the second X-Files movies appeared in 2008.

Mitchel, also, told Bloomberg Business that the 1947 Roswell incident, which to some people is evidence of an extraterrestrial crash landing, was covered up.

"It's not just military. It's a cabal of organizations primarily for a profit motive," he told the publication.

However, he drew the line when it came to an interview with the UK tabloid Mirror. The newspaper claimed Mitchell said UFOs had helped prevent nuclear war. "None of those statements were originated by me," he told the Huffington Post.

In addition to Mitchell's UFO thoughts, it became known after Apollo that he had conducted ESP experiments on the mission. He was also a believer in extraterrestrial activity, and was convinced UFOs had visited Earth.

Edgar Mitchell was in the small fraternity of 12 men who had walked on the moon. As of his death, now seven survive: Buzz Aldrin, Alan Bean, David Scott, John W. Young, Charles Duke, Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt.

The Martian, Interstellar, Alien, Blade Runner and Lawrence of Arabia

The imagery of Alien (1979) merges with the new The Martian (2015). Both were directed by Ridley Scott.

Ridley Scott also directed Blade Runner (1982).

Jessica Chastain as Melissa Lewis, in The Martian (2015)

In the 2005 documentary short, Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon 3 (directed by Mark Cowen), Matt Damon was the voice of Al Shepard and Matthew McConaughey was the voice of Al Bean.

The Martian (2015) has been compared to Interstellar (2014), which was directed by Christopher Nolan. Interstellar starred Matthew McConaughey (as Cooper, shown above on the right), as well as Matt Damon (on the left above) and Jessica Chastain (below right), who both were in The Martian (2015). Reviews are actually talking of The Martian as the Anti-Interstellar.

Jessica Chastain was Murph in Interstellar (2014) and was Melissa Lewis in The Martian (2015)

One of the characters of The Martian is the landscape.

Filming of The Martian took place at Wadi Rum, also known as The Valley of the Moon, in Jordan, which served the backdrop, as Mars. Wadi Rum has been used as a backdrop for other films set on Mars, including Mission to Mars (2000), Red Planet (2000), and The Last Days on Mars (2013). Ridley Scott employed Wadi Rum for shooting the scenes of the Alien Planet for Prometheus.

Wadi Rum was also the site for the following films: Lawrence of Arabia (1962), Passion in the Desert (1998), and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009).

Wadi Rum, Jordan, near the border with Saudi Arabia, appears unchanged from the blood red scenes described in T. E. Lawrence's Seven Pillars of Wisdom. It is the same landscape which David Lean used as the backdrop for the Englishman's first encounter with Alec Guinness' Prince Faisal -- in what is now a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site. It makes a perfect setting for a cinematic Mars.

 Peter O'Toole played Lawrence of Arabia.
