Famous UFO witness announces 40th anniversary event
Famous UFO witness announces 40th anniversary event
Just in time for Alien Abduction Day, Travis Walton, a logger who’s coworkers saw him get blasted by a UFO before going missing for five days in 1975, has announced details of a 40th anniversary event that includes a visit to the site where the UFO was seen on the same day and at the same time it all took place 40 years ago.
In case you did not know, today is Alien Abduction Day, also known as Extraterrestrial Abduction Day. As we wrote about in 2012, the origins of the holiday is unknown, but it now has its own Wikipedia entry.
So what better day to announce details about a unique and rare opportunity regarding perhaps the most famous alien abduction event ever. According to the website, the public is invited to “Join Travis Walton on a guided walking tour of the actual site where he encountered a burning fire in the sky and was taken aboard a spacecraft of unknown origin. As twilight approaches, you will be led through the forest while Travis takes you step-by-step through his harrowing experience.”
The forest at the site of Walton’s UFO experience at dusk.
Walton’s harrowing experience made headlines when he went missing. After seeing Walton zapped, his coworkers took off, assuming he was dead. They returned soon after, but the UFO and Walton were gone. They raced to report Walton’s disappearance to the police, but the police had a hard time believing their friend was attacked by a UFO. A massive man hunt was mounted, but as time when on, authorities began suspecting that Walton’s friends must have killed Walton and concocted a wild story about a UFO taking him away.
Eventually, Walton returned. He thought he had been gone only a few hours, but it turned out to be five days. Walton remembered seeing the UFO before it zapped him. He then didn’t remember anything until being dropped off on the side of the street and seeing the UFO flying off in the night sky above him.
Later, under regression, he remembered strange events taking place onboard some sort of apparent spacecraft.
Fire in the Sky movie poster.
The 1993 movie Fire in the Sky, was based on Walton’s experiences, and portrayed the events fairly accurately, except for what Walton remembers happening under regression. The movie starred D.B. Sweeney, James Garner and Robert Patrick.
The movie is often criticized for not staying true to the Walton’s experience when it comes to what Walton remembered under regression. However, Tracy Torme, singer Mel Torme’s son, who is a filmmaker and wrote the script for Fire in the Sky, will be giving a lecture at an anniversary event being held after the UFO site tour to explain why the producers asked him to make the changes.
Torme’s talk will be part of the Skyfire Summitt, which will be held in Heber/Overgaard, Arizona, near the location where the UFO was seen on November 5, 1975. The event will begin the day after the UFO site tour, running from November 6 – 8, 2015, and will include lectures from Walton and UFO researchers, and a panel with Walton and some of the men who witnessed his disappearance.
In the interest of disclosure, I should note that yours truly (me) will be emceeing the event.
So if you were looking for something to make Alien Abduction Day 2015 special, planning a trip to an alien abduction site might be just what you were looking for.
A smaller test run of the event was held last year, and OpenMinds.tv was there. You can see more about it in our video below.
The event will also include a screening of the International UFO Congress EBE Award Winner for Best Movie and People’s Choice, Travis. Watch the trailer below.
President Obama told Jimmy Kimmel that we are under alien control. Plus, another UFO appeared during a live news broadcast, and this one is pretty strange. These and other space and UFO stories on this episode of Spacing Out!

Natuurkundige presenteert 'nieuw bewijs voor theorie dat Marsbeschaving werd uitgeroeid door atoombom'
Natuurkundige presenteert ‘nieuw bewijs voor theorie dat Marsbeschaving werd uitgeroeid door atoombom’
In november 2014 zei plasmafysicus dr. John Brandenburg dat een oude Marsbeschaving was vernietigd tijdens een verwoestende kernoorlog. Deze week presenteerde hij tijdens een conferentie nieuw bewijs voor zijn theorie.
Dr. Brandenburg stelt dat twee bevolkingsgroepen op Mars – de Cydoniërs en de Utopiërs – tijdens een nucleaire oorlog met een ander buitenaards ras zijn uitgeroeid. Hij wijst op een aantal ‘artefacten’ aan het Marsoppervlak die volgens hem resten van een intelligente beschaving zijn.
Een dunne laag radioactief materiaal – bestaande uit uranium, thorium en kalium – vormt het bewijs voor zijn theorie. Volgens hem zijn op twee plekken op Mars, te weten Cydonia en Galaxias Chaos, radioactieve isotopen gevonden die kunnen worden gelinkt aan proeven met de waterstofbom.
“We hebben op beide plekken trinitiet gevonden,” zei dr. Brandenburg. Trinitiet is een kunstmatig gevormde glasachtige substantie die op 16 juli 1945 is ontstaan tijdens de ontploffing van de eerste atoombom genaamd Trinity. “Dit ondersteunt mijn theorie over enorme nucleaire ontploffingen,” ging hij verder. “Tot dusver hebben wetenschappers nog geen andere verklaring kunnen geven.”
Dr. Brandenburg richt zich met name op de nucleaire explosies, die volgens hem bewijs zijn voor intelligente beschavingen op Mars. Hij wil eerst de wetenschappelijke gemeenschap overtuigen van de explosies voordat hij dieper ingaat op de veroorzakers ervan.
Brandenburg zei ook dat hij de bedenker is van de hypothese dat Mars ooit bedekt was met een oceaan, iets wat NASA pas geleden bekend heeft gemaakt.

Ruimtesonde ontdekt poollicht en mysterieuze wolk rond Mars
Niet alleen de aarde, maar ook Mars heeft een poollicht. Dat ontdekte de Amerikaanse satelliet Maven, zo maakte ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA bekend.
Vlak voor 25 december nam Maven vijf dagen lang een felle, ultraviolette aurora waar boven het noordelijk halfrond van de rode planeet. Mars is daarmee de vierde planeet met aurora’s. De aarde, Jupiter en Saturnus kennen het verschijnsel ook.
Het ‘kerstlicht’ zoals de wetenschappers het noemden, is niet de enige onverwachte ontdekking van Maven. De satelliet, die sinds september vorig jaar de dampkring van Mars bestudeert, kwam ook een mysterieuze stofwolk tegen in de atmosfeer, op een hoogte tussen de 150 en 300 kilometer.
Wat voor stof het precies is, weet NASA nog niet. “Als het stof afkomstig is uit de atmosfeer van Mars, kan dat betekenen dat we een fundamenteel proces in de atmosfeer van Mars missen,” zei Laila Anderson van de Universiteit van Colorado.
Een internationaal team astronomen heeft op basis van gegevens van de Sloan Digital Sky Survey geconcludeerd dat onze Melkweg minstens de helft groter is dan tot nu toe werd aangenomen.
De wetenschappers hebben ontdekt dat de armen van de Melkweg niet vlak zijn, maar golvend. Daarmee zit het sterrenstelsel anders in elkaar dan men tot nu toe aannam.
Oude waarnemingen laten zien dat het aantal sterren in ons Melkwegstelsel op een afstand van zo’n 50.000 lichtjaar van het centrum sterk afneemt. Astronomen hebben daarom lange tijd gedacht dat de Melkweg een middellijn heeft van 100.000 lichtjaar.
In 2002 werd er een cluster van sterren ontdekt voorbij die denkbeeldige rand van het sterrenstelsel. Uit het nieuwe onderzoek blijkt dat die cluster een hoger gelegen deel van de schijf is. De schijf is niet vlak, maar vertoont een golfpatroon dat vergelijkbaar is met de kringen in een vijver waar een steen in is gegooid, aldus de onderzoekers.
De Melkwegschijf bevat tenminste vier ‘golven’, die kunnen zijn ontstaan doordat de Melkweg in aanraking is gekomen met een kleiner sterrenstelsel. De middellijn is inmiddels bijgesteld naar 150.000 lichtjaar in plaats van 100.000 lichtjaar, maar er bestaat een kans dat er nog meer golven achter de bekende armen van de Melkweg liggen en dat ons sterrenstelsel dus nóg groter is.

In de lucht boven de Russische stad Stavropol is een onverklaarbare blauwe flits gezien. De mysterieuze flits is vastgelegd door een dashcam.
Diverse mensen schrokken van de flits, die rond 00.39 uur lokale tijd werd waargenomen. In een aantal gebieden ging de straatverlichting uit en daarnaast begonnen in appartementen en huizen de lichten te flikkeren.
Lokale bewoners kwamen met verschillende theorieën over het incident: militaire oefeningen die momenteel in het gebied worden gehouden, problemen met het elektriciteitsnet, poollicht, een asteroïde en zelfs UFO’s.
Een vrouw liet op de sociale media weten dat haar hele plafond werd verlicht door de flits, meldt het Russische dagblad Argumenty i Fakty. Volgens het hydrometeorologisch centrum van de stad heeft het fenomeen niets van doen met de natuur. Elektriciteitsmedewerkers zeiden dat er geen stroomstoringen zijn geweest.

VIDEO: UFO vliegt door beeld tijdens nieuwsuitzending in Oklahoma City
Op 12 maart werd een UFO gespot tijdens een live nieuwsuitzending in Oklahoma City. Kort nadat het onbekende object was waargenomen, plaatste KOCO 5 News een filmpje op YouTube met daaronder de vraag wat het kon zijn geweest.
De camera van KOCO die het onverklaarbare licht heeft vastgelegd, filmde het verkeer toen er plotseling van links naar rechts een helder object door het beeld schoot. Het bevond zich niet al te hoog in de lucht omdat het op de voorgrond in plaats van de achtergrond zichtbaar was.
“We hebben om 06.00 uur een vliegend object vastgelegd. Wat denk jij dat het is geweest?” vroeg de nieuwszender aan de kijkers. Verslaggever Wendell Edwards zei dat het station op de grond heeft gezocht naar sporen van het object. “We hebben niets gevonden,” zei hij. “Ik heb de Oklahoma City Astronomy Club gebeld en de voorzitter vertelde me dat het een meteoriet was, hoewel het object met hoge snelheid zeer laag overvloog.”
Begin deze maand verscheen op YouTube een filmpje van een nieuwsuitzending van de Argentijnse zender Todo Noticias met daarin een schijfvormige UFO in de lucht. Het bleek te gaan om een hoax, omdat de UFO in de oorspronkelijke beelden niet te zien is.

Vet says government has acknowledged he was injured by UFO while on duty
Vet says government has acknowledged he was injured by UFO while on duty
A U.S. Air Force veteran believes a UFO incident he experienced while on duty in 1980 is the root of his current health problems. However, initially the government denied he was on active duty at the time. With the help of a lawyer and U.S. Senator John McCain’s office, his records have been corrected and he has received his full medical disability. He and his lawyer now claim their victory represents the “U.S. government’s de facto acknowledgement of the existence of UFOs.”
John Burroughs was serving as a U.S. Air Force police officer at Royal Air Force Base (RAF) Bentwaters, near the Rendelsham Forest in Suffolk, United Kingdom in December 1980 when the UFO incident took place. The base, along with its sister base, RAF Woodbridge, were on lease to the U.S.

Late on the night of the fateful incident, lights were seen in the forest and Burroughs and several other security personnel were sent out to investigate. They saw a bright light that grew brighter as they approached. It then flew off into the night sky.
The next night the lights were seen again. Skeptical of the whole affair, and eager to figure out what he assumed was a prosaic answer to the sightings, Deputy Base Commander Charles Halt took a group of men out again. This group included Burroughs. This time the entire group saw lights flying around the forest. Some of these orbs of light beamed rays of light on the ground near the men’s feet and on the nearby munitions storage.
Illustration simulating the UFO reported by Halt.
The event became a large story in the UK, and is still debated to this day.
Burroughs, who along with an airman named James Penniston approached closest to the object, feels his health issues stem from his proximity to the UFO. He has since found a document that was created by UK Defence Intelligence that also speculates this could be the case. A section of the report that covers UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) – another term for UFO – radiation, speculates, ”The well-reported Rendlesham Forest/Bentwaters event is an example where it might be postulated that several observers were probably exposed to UAP radiation for longer than normal UAP sighting periods.”
Burroughs has since suffered from congestive heart failure, which he says he has been told by scientists can be caused by radiation exposure.
While living in Arizona, Burroughs sought to get his medical records from the U.S. Air Force to help his doctor diagnose his problems. However, they said he was not in the service at that time. Burroughs sought the help of a lawyer familiar with Veterans Affairs (VA) cases and U.S. Senator John McCain’s office. McCain’s office was able to get his military records corrected, but, according to Burroughs and his lawyer Pat Frascogna, McCain’s office was not confident he would ever get his medical records.

In an Open Minds UFO Radio interview with Frascogna, he said it was not unusual that someone who worked on classified projects in the military would have records withheld. He said in these cases the military typically settles and grants disability. However, these are individuals who knowingly working on classified projects. Burroughs was not working on classified projects. However, the government is not required to say why military records have been classified or by whom.

At the recent 2015 International UFO Congress, Burroughs and Frascogna announced that, as Frascogna predicted, Burroughs was granted full medical disability. However, they say his medical records remain classified.
To Burroughs and Frascogna, the granting of the benefits signifies an admission by the VA and Department of Defense (DOD) that his health issues stem from his years in the service. Furthermore, they believe it is an admission that they are a result of his close proximity to a UFO.
In a press release titled “U.S. Government’s De Facto Acknowledgement of the Existence of UFOs,” Burroughs writes:
In January of 2015, after years of exhaustive efforts the VA settled, in full, with me. I needed someone to champion my cause, someone not afraid to put themselves at risk to help me. I was lucky. I found two to champion my cause, my attorney Pat Frascogna, and Senator John McCain and his staff. Through their efforts, I received lifesaving heart surgery to replace a badly shredded anterior mitral valve caused by the UAP radiation, and a settlement from the DOD and VA admitting I was injured in the line of duty in December of 1980.
Although this story has a happy ending, Burroughs and Frascogna say they aren’t finished looking into what really happened in the Rendelsham Forest in 1980, and what the UK and U.S. governments know about it.

Recent book on the Rendelsham Forest Incident written by former UK Ministry of Defence UFO researcher Nick Pope with witnesses John Burroughs and James Penniston.
Burroughs has submitted several Freedom of Information Act Requests in the UK and U.S. He has already been able to get the UK government to admit that they have more UFO files to release, even though they had previously claimed to have released all of their UFO files. He also says he is confident he will receive more files from the U.S. government that have not been available to the public before.
The Rendelsham Forest incident is often referred to as UK’s Roswell, and like its American counterpart, is the gift that keeps on giving with alleged new discoveries coming to light on a regular basis. Stay tuned for more revelations from Burroughs and Frasogna, and the other numerous dogged researchers out there who will undoubtedly continue their search for answers.
For his work getting the UK government to admit they had more UFO files to release, and for the discovery of the UK Defence Intelligence document speculating that the witnesses of the Rendelsham Forest Incident had been exposed to UAP (UFO) radiation, Burroughs was awarded the UFO Researcher of the Year award at the 2015 International UFO Congress. Watch the video below to view the presentation of the award.
Full text of the press release issued by Burroughs and Frascogna:
FOR RELEASE ON: February 22, 2015
U.S. Government’s De Facto Acknowledgement of the Existence of UFOs
PHOENIX, AZ — The United States Government has, for the first time ever, acknowledged by de facto the long-suspected reality of the UFO phenomenon. John Burroughs encountered a craft of unknown origin in England’s Rendlesham Forest in December of 1980 and suffered injury there from for which the Veterans Administration has now recognized by granting him full medical disability. The December 1980 Rendlesham Forest incident in the United Kingdom is arguably the most well documented and important UFO encounter in history. A UFO was seen over three consecutive nights by United States Air Force personnel stationed at the twin bases of Bentwaters and Woodbridge, near Ipswich, England — then the largest NATO air force bases at the height of the Cold War.
The UFO was tracked on radar and physical evidence was found at a site where the UFO was seen to land, including indentations in the frozen ground, scorch marks on the sides on the trees, and radiation levels subsequently assessed by the UK Ministry of Defense as “significantly higher than the average background”.
Airman First Class John Burroughs encountered the UFO at close proximity on the first night. While for many years the U.S. Government denied that this incident had even occurred, in 2006 the UK Government declassified an intelligence study on UFOs (codenamed Project Condign and classified as Secret UK Eyes Only) in which the following statement is found:
The well-reported Rendlesham Forest/Bentwaters event is an example where it might be postulated that several observers were probably exposed to UAP [Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon] radiation for longer than normal UAP sighting periods.
John Burroughs was one of those observers who was exposed to UAP radiation in the Rendlesham Forest in December 1980. However, despite having been exposed to UAP radiation as postulated by the UK’s own intelligence report, the U.S. Government stonewalled John, his attorney, and two United States senators for years. Now, after decades of persistence, the U.S. Government has finally acknowledged that John Burroughs suffered adverse health effects in the Rendlesham Forest and, therefore, has recognized the link between his health problems and the UFO he encountered. In an interesting twist, John’s complete medical records file from that time he served in England remains classified. In regard to the VA’s action on his case, John said:
In January of 2015, after years of exhaustive efforts the VA settled, in full, with me. I needed someone to champion my cause, someone not afraid to put themselves at risk to help me. I was lucky. I found two to champion my cause, my attorney Pat Frascogna, and Senator John McCain and his staff. Through their efforts, I received lifesaving heart surgery to replace a badly shredded anterior mitral valve caused by the UAP radiation, and a settlement from the DOD and VA admitting I was injured in the line of duty in December of 1980.

Rendlesham Incident: US commander speaks for the first time about the 'Suffolk UFO'
Rendlesham Incident: US commander speaks for the first time about the 'Suffolk UFO'
The incident had been known as Britain's Roswell: a group of American servicemen stationed in Suffolk go into a forest to investigate mysterious lights and emerge convinced they have seen an alien spacecraft.
The sightings, in December 1980, remain unexplained and have become the country's most tantalising and enduring UFO riddle.
One of those involved even claimed to have touched an alien spacecraft.
Now, the man who led the only investigation into the “Rendlesham Forest Incident” has spoken about the sightings - but his decision to end thirty years of silence is unlikely to please the UFO-believers as he suggests his men could have been hoaxed.
In 1980, US Air Force Colonel Conrad was base commander of the twin airfields of Woodbridge and Bentwaters, near Ipswich, which are understood at the time to have stored nuclear weapons.
Just after Christmas mysterious lights were seen in the sky above nearby Rendelsham Forest, and after a second night of reports from his men, Col Conrad investigated himself.
During the day, he went into the forest himself to a clearing where the lights had been seen and where markings on trees and on the ground had been found, indicating a possible landing by a spacecraft.
Col Conrad said he found them "unremarkable". Nevertheless, he returned to the base and hand picked a team of his best security officers and sent them in the forest that evening to investigate.
Armed with a Geiger counter, cameras and night vision devices they staked out the "landing site". After seeing nothing suspicious, most of the team returned to base late that night. A handful remained, including his deputy, Lt Col Charles Halt, who stayed in contact with his superior by radio.
It is his account of what happened next which has fuelled rumours of a UFO landing. Over the radio, he reported seeing more lights on the ground and in the sky.
At home on the base, the commander and his wife went outside to look for the lights after hearing about the sighting. Other senior officers on the base – and their wives – did the same. But despite it being a clear, cloudless night, they saw nothing suspicious.
Lt Col Halt filed a report of the incident to the Ministry of Defence some days later and has since go on to say the lights he saw were “extraterrestrial in origin” and accuse the US and UK security services of a cover-up. Col Conrad, who had gone home convinced he had seen nothing unusual, has remained silent.
Now he has provided a series of statements about the sightings to Dr David Clarke, a Sheffield Hallam University academic and the UFO adviser to the National Archives - which this week will release some Ministry of Defence files relating to the incident.
"We saw nothing that resembled Lt Col Halt's descriptions either in the sky or on the ground," Col Conrad said.
In a damning indictment of his former deputy, Col Conrad added: "We had people in position to validate Halt's narrative, but none of them could."
He said there was no "hard evidence" of anything suspicious.
The Geiger counter was initially said to have given slightly elevated readings in the clearance, but that these were later found to indicate "normal" levels of background radiation.
Col Conrad is scathing about his former deputy.
"He should be ashamed and embarrassed by his allegation that his country and England both conspired to deceive their citizens over this issue. He knows better," he said.
The former base commander also disputes the subsequent testimony of another serviceman, Sgt Jim Penniston, who had gone into the woods on the first night of the sightings and has since claimed he touched an alien spacecraft.
Col Conrad said he interviewed the officer at the time and that, while he described seeing strange lights which had moved off into the distance, he had not mentioned touching a spacecraft.
Although he cannot explain the subsequent accounts of his subordinates, Col Conrad said he thinks the incident may have been a hoax.
This chimes with the theories of some experts who suspect the lights the men first saw were actually from a fireball or Orford Ness lighthouse, about five miles away, and that they were subsequently hoaxed by their colleagues, including some who went on to hold senior positions in the US military.
Col Conrad said: "The search for an explanation could go many places including the perpetration of a clever hoax. Natural phenomenon such as the very clear cold air having a theoretical ability to guide and reflect light across great distances or even the presence of an alien spacecraft.
"If someone had the time, money and technical resources to determine the exact cause of the reported Rendlesham Forest lights, I think it could be done. I also think the odds are way high against there being an ET spacecraft involved, and almost equally high against it being an intrusion of hostile earthly craft."
Dr Clarke, who is a sceptic on UFO issues, believes Lt Col Halt saw some form of optical illusion and that his and Sgt Penniston's claims have become increasingly extreme over the years, as speculation over the sightings has increased.
"I don't think anyone, least of all Conrad, doubts that Halt and his men saw "something" in the woods. They had an extraordinary experience. And that experience would remain extraordinary regardless of whether ultimately it was a lighthouse or poacher's lanterns – which has also been suggested.
"But Col Conrad is responsible for the only proper investigation of this incident. He went to look and if there was anything to be seen, I cannot see how he could not have seen it."

Mysterious Flash Scares People As Streetlights Go Out and Residential Lights Flicker
Mysterious Flash Scares People As Streetlights Go Out and Residential Lights Flicker
A white, blue flash lighted up the sky above the southern Russian city of Stavropol. The mysterious flash has triggered a debate over its origins after a dashcam captured the strange light’s aerial activity.
Interestingly, the soundless flash of light made some streetlights to malfunction or go out. Several people in the area got scared after their lights in the apartments and houses also flickered for no apparent reasons at around 00:39 local time or 21:39 GMT on Monday.
Local residents have mixed theories and interpretations about the incident. Among the arguments presented by online commenters are military exercises nearby, electricity net problems, an asteroid, Northern Lights, and, of course, the popular one, UFOs.
According to the Argumenty i Fakty report, a woman shared her experience on social media saying that she was very frightened by her experience. She said that she was in bed and saw a dazzling light that lit up her ceiling.
The Hydrometeorological Center of the city said that the phenomenon can’t be attributed to nature but could be anthropogenic, theorizing that the source of light was somewhere on the ground.
However, power engineers ruled out the theory pointing to power supply problem. The public still clueless about the nature of the strange aerial flash.
Many ufologists and conspiracy theorists believe there is a link between UFOs and Nazi Germany. According to their clams, the Nazis successfully developed advanced aircraft or spacecraft prior to and during World War II. When the war ended, the craft and their creators survived in secret underground bases located in Antarctica, South America or even the US. If their claims are true, where did the Germans get such advanced technology?
The story begins in 1937, ten years before the famous Roswell incident. Somewhere in the German countryside, a flying saucer crashes after losing control. This event provided the basis for the Nazi’s energetic research into wingless disk-shaped aircraft and their obsession with exotic technology. The German army retrieved the damaged apparatus and notified the German High Command. When Hitler got word of the event, he immediately commissioned Germany’s top aeronautical experts to study the craft.
It was moved into a top-secret facility near the Rhine and guarded 24/7. Teams of highly specialized individuals were assembled; among them were members of the Luftwaffe, the Ministry of Arms and the National Council of Research. University professors and industrial engineers were called to aid in reverse engineering the alien technology. It is speculated that the inventors of the stealth jet fighter, the Horton brothers were also present.
The craft helped them understand the working principles behind flying saucers and provided valuable information regarding electronics and advanced propulsion. However, the scientists were unable to understand or duplicate the exotic and unknown materials the craft was built with. Hitler personally tasked Germany’s most illustrious physicists in getting the technology to work and serve in the war effort. A working craft propelled by specially designed jet engines was built but it had stability issues. The first two prototypes malfunctioned and crashed, killing the test pilots.
As the war raged on, Nazi officials pressured German inventor Viktor Schauberger to offer a solution. He had previously worked on the design for a revolutionary motor that created imploding vortexes. Schauberger adapted his motor and fitted it on the existing prototypes, thus creating the Haunebu Disks, the Nazi UFOs.
If these flying saucers indeed existed, nobody knows where they are today or if they’ve even survived.
Fortunately, the Allied Forces won the war before further advancements could be made. In the words of aeronautical engineer Roy Fedden: “I have seen enough of their designs and production plans to realize that if they had managed to prolong the war some months longer, we would have been confronted with a set of entirely new and deadly developments in air warfare.”
In 1989, a man named Robert S. Lazar contacted a local Las Vegas TV station (KLAS) asking for a chance to make his story public. Lazar claimed he had been working as a physicist on project Galileo, which was the government’s most highly classified project at the time. The project involved reverse-engineering alien technology and research was carried on at a secret base called S4, located 10 miles (16 kilometers) south of the notorious Area 51.
According to Lazar’s description, the S4 facility has nine aircraft hangars hidden inside the mountain. The hangar doors are built at an angle matching the mountain slope and they are also camouflaged with natural material.
Lazar claims he had seen nine different alien vehicles at the base and he provided technical details regarding their propulsion mode. His activity involved researching the fuel for the craft, an element with the atomic number of 115. This element possessed unusual properties that allowed the flying saucers to warp space around them. This way, the destination was essentially ‘pulled’ towards the ship, crossing enormous distances with minimal physical movement.
“I am exactly sure of what I saw. I know what mainstream science is like, I know where physics stands–I know all of that–and this is an extraterrestrial craft, this technology is hundreds and hundreds of years in advance of us, and that’s the end of that story,” said Lazar.
Lazar allegedly received briefings regarding the history of extraterrestrials on Earth for the past 100,000 years. The aliens originated from the Zeta Reticuli star system and were colloquially called ‘greys’.
He claims that since he went public he received several threats and has even been shot.
Lazar’s background has been difficult to verify. His records have been erased and there is no evidence of him working at the Los Alamos National Laboratories. However, his name appeared in a telephone directory of Los Alamos scientists and a picture of him appeared in the July 1982 edition of the Los Alamos Monitor, referring to his employment at the site.
Bob Lazar offers a considerable amount of evidence supporting his claims and he has since gained many followers. To them, Lazar is a very credible man with a solid background in physics and engineering. However, there are many skeptics who believe the entire scenario is played by Lazar in order to serve his own reasons.
Whatever his reasons, Lazar is responsible for propelling Area 51 to the notoriety it has today, despite being a top-secret facility.
If Lazar is right and also telling the truth, his testimony might be the single most descriptive account of what is going on right under our noses.
The Kecksburg UFO incident occurred on Decenber 9, 1965. Thousands of people from six US states as well as the Ontario region, Canada witnessed a large and bright fireball in the skies, leaving a trail of hot metal, starting fires and causing sonic booms. The official statement was that the object had been a meteoroid that exploded in the atmosphere. Witness testimonies tell a different story. In fact, due to the similarities between the Kecksburg Incident and the 1947 Roswell crash, the former has been often referred to as “Pennsylvania’s Roswell”.
Evidence against the meteor theory comes from the statements of given by the residents of Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, a small village 30 miles southeast of Pittsburgh. They claim that an unknown object crashed into the nearby woods. Many witness testimonies support this scenario. A mother and her son saw an object shaped like an acorn land in the forest and alerted the authorities when they saw blue smoke over the trees. Other locals felt a muffled thump followed by a low vibration. Another testimony was given by the local volunteer fire department members, who reported seeing a car-sized, acorn-shaped object in the woods.
They say strange symbols resembling Egyptian hieroglyphics were arranged in a circular band around its base.
The military made a quick appearance, sealing off the area and restricting civilian access. The object was then loaded on a flatbed truck, covered and then shuttled away. The official Army report states that nothing was found, despite numerous witnesses claiming they had seen something being transported on the truck.
The next day, the Tribune-Review ran an article called ‘Unidentified Flying Object Falls near Kecksburg — Army Ropes off Area’. The article read:
The area where the object landed was immediately sealed off on the order of US Army and State Police officials, reportedly in anticipation of a ‘close inspection’of whatever may have fallen. State Police officials there ordered the area roped off to await the expected arrival of both US Army engineers and possibly, civilian scientists.”
The authorities issued an official statement, saying that the disturbance had been caused by a meteor but many believe this is just another cover-up. Their explanations range from space debris to Soviet probes to alien crafts. At the time, there was speculation that the object might have been debris from Kosmos 96, a Soviet probe intended for the exploration of Venus that had malfunctioned and never got to leave Earth’s orbit. However, in 2003, NASA stated that was not the case, only to change its statement in 2005, declaring the Kecksburg Incident had indeed been caused by Kosmos 96.
Stan Gordon, the main investigator of this incident for several decades stated: “I have no doubt the government knows a lot more about this than it has revealed to the public”.
In the end, NASA reported the case files had been destroyed or misplaced and in 2009 a case was filed against them by Leslie Kean, an investigative journalist and co-founder of the Coalition for Freedom of Information. The case was closed when NASA was unable to retrieve the case files.
The incident remains unexplained to this day and there have been several attempts to reveal the identity of the object that crashed in the woods near Kecksburg. Among them is a particularly interesting theory stating the craft was in fact Die Glocke, commonly referred to as the Nazi Bell, a technological device developed during World War 2 based on alien technology. Supposedly, the craft was able to travel through time and had been used by Nazi SS officer Hans Kammler to escape the Allied Forces in the final days of the war.
As in almost all other UFO cases, only speculation exists and it is highly unlikely that we will ever know the truth.
Extrasensory perception or ESP can be described as sensing information with the mind, as opposed to sensing it through the well-known and recognized physical senses. ESP, sometimes called the sixth sense is an aspect of parapsychology (PSI), which is disregarded by mainstream science. Most scientists contest the existence of clairvoyance, telepathy and other metapsychological phenomena.
But their attitude cannot be blamed as these phenomena are short-lived and cannot be recreated at will. They are placed in the same bin as the superstitions, lies and illusions of mankind. Although mentioned all over the world and throughout history, science has turned its back on them.
However, the mystery of existence and moral suffering were much more important to our ancestors than disease or physical suffering. The study of spiritual life and philosophy has attracted more great men than medicine and all the other sciences combined. The laws of mysticism were known way before those of physiology.
Immanuel Kant believed that humans could not understand the ‘essence of things’ through sensing space and time. Based on this idea, PSI phenomena are independent from the constraints of space-time and belong to a ‘pure mental essence’ that the human mind cannot fully understand. This the reason behind the existence of an unknown energy that is emitted, channeled and received by the human body through equally unknown mechanisms. The energy itself could materialize somewhere, a concept not entirely alien in the field of quantum physics.
The issue whether paranormal phenomena exist or not is the reason PSI has been isolated from mainstream science. The gap between these two is deepened by the difficulty of performing unbiased experiments and the lack of a unitary theory. ESP is said to occur spontaneously and under conditions that are not scientifically controlled. These impromptu experiences are much stronger and clearer than those observed in the laboratory. However, it is nearly impossible to replicate these extraordinary experiences under controlled conditions.
Those who believe in the existence of the sixth sense are convinced in the existence of an additional field besides the gravitational, magnetic and electric ones; the mental field. This field is said to contain the collective information of our own existence as well as the reality of the entire universe and all beings are connected within this system. This connection is the driving force behind the coherent functioning of the entire universe, its resonance and harmony.
An old Native American legend tells of a time when men in shining clothes came from the skies in their equally shining flying disks. Passed on through generations, the folktale describes a crash between two such flying objects. One of them was damaged and crash landed somewhere in the Death Valley. Soon after that, the crew of a second disk arrived at the scene and began repairing the damaged craft. This account could be considered just a myth were it not for some strange stone carvings. The ancient Native Americans recorded what they saw, inscribing two different objects in the desert stones that resemble the standard UFO model. Another set of carvings found in the area are strikingly similar to various wave patterns. Some say this is just another case of misinterpretation while others are certain the Native Americans carved what they saw: aliens.
Some people want to believe while others simply don’t. To most of us, the effects of the UFO phenomenon go no further than this and we go on with our daily lives. The following people were a little less lucky and their lives were abruptly cut short either by getting too close to something or by simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
U.S Air Force Captain Thomas Mantell’s death is linked to one of the earliest and most famous UFO encounters. It took place in 1948, a mere six months after the term ‘flying saucers’ had been coined by Kenneth Arnold.
On January 7, Kentucky State Police alerted the tower operators at Godman AFB near Fort Knox, reporting a huge object flying at high altitude. The object was conical in shape and had a shiny, metallic surface and a red tip. It was seen by multiple witnesses, both civilian and military.
Three P-51 aircraft led by USAF Captain Thomas Mantell were sent to investigate. As he was climbing towards the UFO, Capt. Mantell reported seeing “a metallic object or possibly the reflection of sun from a metallic object, and it is of tremendous size.”
The other pilots fell back as their aircraft were not equipped for high altitude flight but Mantell continued his pursuit. He reached an altitude of 22,000 feet (6,700 meters) and his last message was that he was taking a closer look. An hour later, his dead body was found amid the wreckage of his plane. The official explanation was that he had been chasing Venus and fainted due to a lack of oxygen. In the 1950’s the statement changed. He had apparently chased a CIA-sponsored Skyhook balloon.
Needless to say, many believe he was shot down by the conical UFO.
Brazil has seen quite a number of UFO sightings over the years and one of the most gruesome fates was suffered by João Prestes Filho.
On the evening of March 5, 1946, he was shot in the head by a beam that came from the skies. He panicked and ran to his sister’s house. At first, it seemed he had suffered nothing more than a scare but his body soon began exhibiting some very strange symptoms. According to witnesses, his flesh began falling away from his bones. His jaw, chest, arms and legs were affected at first but soon his entire body had deteriorated beyond recognition.
“His teeth and bones stood revealed, utterly bare of flesh,” his sister recalled.
Despite virtually disintegrating, João reported feeling no pain whatsoever. He died while being transported to a nearby hospital.
The strange lights seen in the area at that time suggest a possible UFO connection.
Brazilian Inacio de Souza and his wife were returning home on August 13, 1967 when they encountered three humanoids wearing yellow suits. Hovering nearby was a ship that Inacio said looked like an inverted wash-basin. Startled by their appearance and the fact that they were heading for him, Inacio shot his rifle at one of the strangers. It had no effect.
The UFO retaliated by shooting a green ray of light directly into de Souza’s head. The visitors then disappeared.
Inacio spent the next days drifting in and out of consciousness and despite his wife’s testimony and the circular burn marks on his skin, doctors believed he had suffered nothing more than a vivid hallucination.
A few days later, he was diagnosed with leukemia and he died on October 11, 1967. The doctors were confused by the speed with which his disease spread.
While some believe this incident is nothing more than coincidence, others see no problem in connecting the dots and claiming he had been indeed killed by an alien death ray.
New York UFO researcher Jennifer Stevens apparently got too close to something. In February 1968, she was investigating a strange event that had led to the death of a teenage boy. She had been notified that a strange fireball was seen rising above Mohawk River and two boys even reported catching a glimpse of a humanoid in a white suit.
The following morning, the body of a 16-year-old boy was found in the area. He had only been missing for six hours but his body was deeply frozen. The policemen who found him said he had a terrified look. His footprints suggested that he had been running before being pulled up by something. This aspect intrigued Jennifer Stevens and she believed the boy’s death and the UFO sighting were somehow connected.
A few days later, her husband was approached by a mysterious ‘saturnine-looking’ man who told him that UFO researchers “should be very careful.” Jennifer’s husband, Peter, died a sudden and unexpected death shortly after this encounter.
Jennifer Stevens got the message and gave up her research.
FARMERS CLOSE ENCOUNTER WITH ALIENS IN COLUMBIA 1950 …….. Floridablanca Bucamaranga Colombia
13-year old deaf mute, William Ortiz was riding his horse on a gravel road in his parent’s property when peering through the growth of vegetation on one side of the road, he noticed a child-like figure, but continued on his way. Then in an opening through the brush and in top of a large rock, he saw a disc shaped object with little figures around it. After staring at it he stopped in confusion, looked over his shoulder, and noticed one of the child-like figures next to him. He noticed that the entity wore some type of uniform, very tight fitting and covering the neck and legs. He also wore boots. The collar ended like a turtleneck, and he could see something like a seam in the form of a V on the shoulders. The hands only had four fingers, he was not really so sure. The being had a large hairless head. The eyes were big, oval shaped and very black, some of the other crewmember’s eyes were smaller than the others. There were no ears, just a little hole on each side of the head; the nose was small as well as the lips, which never moved. The skin color was grayish brown. The entity closest to him appeared to be a male. The others looked the same. The entity closest to him, looked directly into Ortiz’s eyes and started sending him messages and at the same time using hand signals or language. Eight enigmatic words were given by the entity, which included “sky” “love” & “secret.” After the message, the entity made a turn toward the rock. At this moment Ortiz could not see the rest of the crew. The entity went back to the object half walking, half floating, very fast. Then the object went straight up, made a turn to the southwest, and disappeared into the horizon. The rock on which the object rested has many peculiar symbols carved on it that included lines, circles, disk shapes, serpents and other symbols.
