This theory by late American author and blogger Mac
Tonnies asserts that if we accept that UFOs are vehicles created by an advanced
civilization and apply Occam’s razor, we can conclude that it is most likely
the civilization originates from the Earth itself rather than a distant planet.
Tonnies suggests that we share our planet with a humanoid race much older than
humanity but related to us (explaining their physical form) and more
technologically advanced. He dubbed these entities the “cryptoterrestrials,”
rejecting “ultraterrestrial” as too linked to theories of humanoid visitors
from other dimensions and “cryptohominid” as too suggestive of Bigfoot.Tonnies
suggests the entities may be a dying civilization given to subterfuge by hiding
underwater or underground. These entities promote and encourage the idea that
UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin as a cover story to throw investigators off
from the truth. Reports from abductees of aliens warning humanity to care for
the Earth make more sense if they are fellow Earth residents rather than
visitors from thousands of light-years away. As for the Roswell crash, Tonnies
has an interesting take on it. Perhaps the cryptoterrestrials aren’t terribly
more advanced than us after all, explaining why the unusual wreckage found at Roswell
didn’t look all that high-tech. It may have been something like a weather
balloon after all, but rather a balloon sent up into the atmosphere for
surveillance by the cryptoterrestrials beneath the Earth’s surface. The US Air
Force isn’t trying to cover up a threat from above, but the existence of
another, slightly more advanced civilization below us. Tonnies admits that some
alien encounters could very well be of extraterrestrial or interdimensional
origin, but he believed the majority are the result of a deception campaign by
a desperate, Earth-based military force of subterraneans hoping to keep our
eyes fixed firmly on the skies.

Piano Facts
How can you describe a piano? Well, a piano is a stringed keyboard instrument which have strings inside that will be hit by soft hammers. The word piano is just a short term for its real name "pianoforte" which consists of two Latin words that means soft (piano) and loud (forte). The piano has a very vast span of loudness and softness which is one of the most significant characteristic of the piano.

There are four important basic parts of the piano which includes the action. It is the mechanism which allows the strings to quiver. In this instrument, this can be done with the hammer action of the piano. The second one is the frame. The frame is usually made from iron or other kind of steel which can resist the great tugging exertion of the piano's strings. The third one is the soundboard which is made up of wood being placed into the frame. Last but not the least the strings (basically steel wires ) which are being extended above the soundboard and securely attached to the frame. These are all joined into a wooden container.
The common total number of keys is 88 which are also made out of wood. The white keys are being coated with ivory while the black ones are covered with ebony. But nowadays, plastic has been a replacement for ebony and ivory because it is cheaper.
Did you know that the room temperature and humidity can influence the tuning of the piano. This is why you should never put it near any heating device and even under the heat of the sun. The piano should also be tuned regularly every time the season starts to change, this is a common method for places who have enormous change in their temperature and humidity.
Here is an example of a piece played through a piano which is accompanied by a Cello:
