Michio Kaku - A Galactic Conversation?

In May, 2009, I was in England filming four episodes of the television series Ghost Cases. After we were done, my co-host Holly Stevens and I stayed in Europe for three weeks on vacation (England, Scotland and the Czech Republic). While in London, I attended a lecture by Dr. Michio Kaku at the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) on the 28th of May, and took the opportunity to ask him a question about his view that we might be in the midst of an intergalactic conversation, and not even know it. Here is that exchange.

More Time Wasted with National Geographic's "Chasing UFOs"

by Robert Sheaffer

While at the two recent conferences in Reno and Las Vegas (see the previous Blog entry), I had occasion to explain to several people that the latest turd-TV offering from the National Geographic Channel, Chasing UFOs, had succeeded in doing something that never has been done before: UFO proponents and UFO skeptics all agree that the show is absurd, a travesty of "UFO investigation" that makes everyone look bad. Indeed, some UFO proponents think that because the show is so bad, it must be a government plot  to embarass UFO researchers!  Hard-core UFO proponent Robert Hastings quite appropriately says the show is "investigation as farce."  He says that its "entertainment-based formula may best be described as Blair Witch Project meets Inspector Clouseau. If the show’s producers are not secretly in cahoots with some intelligence agency to make legitimate UFO research look bad, by association, they have certainly achieved that outcome inadvertently."

was the UFO a spider web reflection?

Episode 3, "Alien Cowboys," is set in Colorado, where they begin by investigating the Tim Edwards UFO video of 1995.  The Chasers are suitably impressed by this video. So far as I know there has been no skeptical investigation of this video. Bruce Maccabee analyzed it, but came to no conclusions about what it is. "Abovetopsecret" user ALLisONE posted a photo comparing the "UFO" in Edwards' video to the sun's reflection on a spider-thread, and so far that's the best explanation I have seen. The changing shape and size of the object certainly suggests a reflection. The smaller white objects (baby UFOs?) are suggested by some to be insects, but to me they look like little dandelion "puffs", small seed packets being scattered in the wind.

They meet with Chuck Zukowski, who investigates alleged "cattle mutilations." I heard Zukowski speak at the International UFO Congress in February, and posted the following in a Blog entry of February 22:

The sessions began Wednesday morning with Chuck Zukowski talking about the joy of slicing up dead cattle that the aliens have already sliced and diced - that way, he can study their handiwork. He showed some gruesome photos, adding that he always brings his three kids when he investigates a mutilation, so that they can help out. He claims to sometimes detect substantial EMF fields emanating from mutilated cows, and speculates that it is a residual field from some alien device. I am wondering why the field does not dissipate away at the speed of light.

Zukowski explained that his website is www.ufonut.com, because this is what people call him. He said that mutilations seem to follow the cattle of certain ranchers, even if the rancher moves. I would think that what follows a rancher is the propensity to attribute slightly unusual predation patterns to extraterrestrials. He has discovered that mutilations and paranormal events are most common at 37 degrees north latitude, creating a belt of weird stuff running clear across the country. In the Q&A session, the question came up as to whether the aliens might be abducting cattle to create a race of "hybrid fetuses." Chuck thought that might be true. Can this be the explanation for the aliens' bizarre obsession with the nether parts of cattle - the creation of an alien/cattle hybrid? Now that truly bends the mind!

Somehow to me the image of Zukowski's three children romping about while he pores over a mutilated cow seemed delightfully surreal, but Chuck assures us in a comment below that his children are young adults, so their presence is surely more understandable. Soon it's time for the three Chasers, plus Zukowski, to put on the "prosthetic devices" and stumble around in the dark looking for mutilated cows, since it's obviously easier to find dead cows at night than when the sun is out. But just as they discover a herd of live cows from its infrared signature (guys, a dead cow won't radiate heat!), another near-encounter with a wild animal, this time a mountain lion, sends them scrambling back with no alien evidence.

They next visit UFO raconteur Stan Romanek, one of the least-credible persons in all UFOlogy. At this year's International UFO Congress I heard Romank deliver one of the most ridiculous talks on UFOs I'd ever heard. I posted:

Stan is the guy who became famous when he posted to YouTube a video of an alien peeping in his window. Soon others were posting alien Peeping Tom videos of their own, many of them better than Romanek's. He told about how he started to have sightings of UFOs a few years back, and soon they were following him around. Before long, big-headed aliens are playing peek-a-boo in the windows of his home. Then the ETs were replaced by as many as nine alien hybrid little girls, who intrude upon his telephone calls, and also play now-you-see-me-now-you-don't. One of them is Lisa's daughter from a previous UFO abduction. Stan gets a few not-quite-clear photos of strange-looking little girls, whose images probably have been Photoshopped to give them ET features.

Stan injured himself falling off a ladder, and was going to get corrective surgery. However, before the operation he was abducted by ETs, and his injury was miraculously healed, to the astonishment of his doctor. Before finishing his talk, he mentioned in passing that someone had anonymously mailed him actual photos of the true Roswell crash debris, and he flashed them tantalizingly on the screen. Stan Romanek is a one-man paranormal factory, and I suspect these wild claims will just keep piling up for many years.

Afterward while Romanek was at his table in the vendors' room (he and his wife now have three books of wild UFO claims), I introduced myself to him, and gave him my "Bad UFOs" card. I asked him why the aliens were following him around. We chatted very briefly when somebody (probably his wife) must have whispered, "don't talk to that guy." Suddenly it was, "I can't talk to you. You just bad-mouth people. Go away." I attempted to get a photo of him and his wife (others were doing so), but he turned his face away from me (how I regret not getting that image of Romanek avoiding the camera!). He said he'd have his lawyer sue me if I took a photo; I replied that was ridiculous, since he was a public figure in a public forum. So much for "UFO research!"

You guessed it: Romanek joins the UFO Chasers in their special Dark-Exploration Suits, and they stumble around not some desolate place, but in the suburban neighborhood where Romanek lives, looking for Extraterrestrials. I'm surprised they didn't have an Encounter with an ice cream truck. They don't find any ETs, but Ben spooks James by replicating the "peeping Tom alien" video, lying on the ground and holding up an alien mask.

The Roswell extraterrestrial tin can

In Episode 4, "UFO Landing Zone?", the UFO Chasers jump into "a race to investigate these [crash] claims." Well, it's only been 65 years since whatever it was happened at Roswell, so you'd better jump in before the trail grows cold. They stumble around in the dark, as usual, and get all excited over finding a piece of scrap metal, which only at the end is revealed to be "tin." Saucer debris, or the remains of some ranch hand's long-ago lunch? They also breathlessly find a military button, later identified as belonging to the U.S. Air Force. Too bad that the Air Force did not exist as a service until Sept. 18, 1947, more than two months after Roswell, and thus the button could not possibly have anything to do with any operation carried out in July of 1947. Roswell proponent Kevin Randle adds this about the button:

It seemed to be too good. The button I used for the photograph had not been buried, but only exposed to the open air for a couple of decades. It is tarnished to a bronze color. The button they found seemed to be nearly pristine. I would expect that if it had been buried for any length of time it would have degraded more than my button that had not.

The nearly-pristine post-Roswell Air Force Button

What this tells me is that the National Geographic has gone the same way as the Arts and Entertainment Channel, Bravo, History Channel and a couple of others....The point is that National Geographic is now more about ratings than research. It is about audience share and entertainment and not about finding the truth, whatever that truth might be. It is about superficial research that avoids asking the difficult questions or asking those who might actually have an answer.

 Exactly right. Randle also checked with the White Sands Missile Range about the supposed UFO crash video presented by Ted Loman that we see repeated over and over, research that The UFO Chasers could not bother to do. He was told that it was part of “an infrared shot of a Navy missile test." Case Closed, but by Randle, not by The UFO Chasers. 


And yet at this very moment another TV production company is seeking to cast "a new docuseries following Alien and UFO Researchers and Investigators. The show would be similar in concept to Ghost Hunters -- except with UFO and Alien findings." They explain, "We are looking to follow an existing team of Investigators," not even realizing that there is no such thing. Are they doing this because they believe Chasing UFOs to be a great show, or will they do a decent job of investigating UFO claims? I'd like to be optimistic about the show, but as a realist I'd have to say that the odds are against it.

Notorious ‘Area 51′ book being adapted for television

Jason McClellan | Jul 27, 2012

AMC has ordered a pilot episode for a scripted dramatic television series about the secretive military installation in Nevada known as Area 51. And the basis for this show will be Annie Jacobsen’s book Area 51, an uncensored history of America’s TOP SECRET military base.

Area 51 book cover. (Credit: Little, Brown and Company)

Jacobsen reportedly interviewed more than nineteen men who worked at Area 51 for her book that “explores the myths about the area and those who believe that region is home to aliens, underground tunnel systems and nuclear facilities, according to the Hollywood Reporter. This book, published in May 2011, met with harsh criticism because of many questionable assertions made by Jacobsen. Most notably was the inclusion of an explanation for what crashed near Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. She claims an anonymous witness informed her that the craft recovered at Roswell was actually an advanced German aircraft, and that the bodies recovered from the crash were children that had been mutilated by infamous Nazi doctor Josef Mengele. This craft was allegedly ordered over the U.S. by Joseph Stalin, hoping to trick Americans into thinking it was an extraterrestrial spacecraft, which would result in a mass panic similar to the one caused by the 1938 radio broadcast of H.G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds. Many doubt the veracity of this Roswell story, including ABC reporter Bill Weir. Weir also interviewed this anonymous witness, but says the witness asserts he did not make all of the claims laid out in the book. The former Area 51 employees interviewed by Jacobsen have also stated how they feel betrayed, and they feel that certain fictitious elements, including the Roswell story, were added to bolster book sales.

The controversy surrounding Jacobsen and her book doesn’t seem to bother AMC, however, and the cable network has even tapped Jacobsen to serve as a co-producer of the show. Walking Dead executive producer Gale Anne Hurd will reportedly executive produce, and Todd E. Kessler (The Good Wife) will create the script.

The Hollywood Reporter describes that Area 51, the show, “will take place in the 1950s-1960s and will focus on those who work at the base and protect the country’s secrets — including the remains of the alleged alien crash at Roswell.”

Although it has been less than a decade since the government acknowledged the existence of Area 51, there is already a wealth of information provided by former base workers about the base itself, and about formerly top-secret projects that took place there. Many former workers have shared their stories with the National Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada. With this information, the museum opened an Area 51 exhibit this year titled Area 51: Myth or Reality? Perhaps a wiser decision for AMC would have been to work with the National Atomic Testing Museum, a Smithsonian-affiliated museum, rather than with the author of such a controversial book.

In special reports, this weeks files cover: UFO Hit by Plane Spray Dives under Water,

The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Special Reports

UFO Hit by Plane Spray Dives Under Water

UFO Casebook reports a video shows a UFO being hit by the spray of a plane. The UFO dives down and hits the water, seemingly going under.
This was filmed in the Gulf of Mexico when the oil spill was present. After reviewing the film again, the UFO seems to be underwater. It looks like the UFO was hit by the spray purposelessly by the pilot.
Listen carefully for the speaker. He said, "Ability to accurately hit the target."
This may be out of context, but it sounds pretty crazy, doesn't it?"This remains a mystery but YOU may be able to solve it. The video has been edited by www.UFOcasebook.com.

(Editor's Note: My hearing is not what it used to be, at least according to my wife, but when I heard the phrase: "ability to accurately hit the target," I don't think it was relating to a UFO. Originally published on Jun 30, 2012 by RealLifeAlienVideos)

Aliens and UFO's are Very Important

Each month more than a thousand UFOs are reported indicating aliens and their UFOs may be the most important topic of our time. We have evidence that they have crashed in Russia, China and the US and probably other countries. Ben Rich and others claim we have back engineered the craft and we can look at drawings of the Roswell craft and see similarities to our newest aircraft. Apparently, we attempted to shoot down the UFOs and may still be intercepting them in space, and trying to discourage them from entering our atmosphere. Fortunately, we apparently have some alien allies who are helping us.

Abductees and contactees frequently report the aliens are concerned about our environmental failures particularly our nuclear weapons and power stations. We are killing off thousands of species, which had the right to live. We are being warned that our carelessness could bring the planet to ruin and make it uninhabitable. The warning is that planet Earth is too valuable for humans to be allowed to continue destroy the environment.

The tsunami that struck northeastern Japan in March 2011and its resulting destruction may be our final warning. Cronyism has been widely blamed for contributing to the meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant operated by Tokyo Electric Power Co.

In a scathing investigation commissioned by parliament, a panel concluded: "The Tepco Fukushima nuclear-power-plant accident was the result of collusion between the government, the regulators and Tepco."

(Workers remove nuclear fuel for the first since last years earthquake.)

On June 20, the Japanese Parliament gave the government three months to set up a new body, with five board members and a supporting staff, to take over the lead regulatory duties from the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency, which was part of the same ministry that heads nuclear-power promotion.

Fukushima has the potential even now to create millions of deaths worldwide. The photo shows the first removal of fuel rods. We do not have a spare planet to escape to. Mars will take a great deal of work to upgrade for humans to live there in large numbers.

UFOs in the Bible

Patrick Cooke has written, "The Greatest Deception" the result of extensive research into the connections between descriptions of technology in the Bible and ancient writings. He explains the UFO phenomenon in world history, and the anomalous evidence from ancient civilizations, and the complete cover-up of these realities by the governments, church, and the world in general. This research organized thousands of biblical verses into categories revealing clear descriptions of flying vehicles, their flight characteristics, the amazing beings that pilot them, and the awesome power and advanced technology they possess. The God of the Old and the New Testament is very clearly described as regularly appearing in flying, glowing, and spinning objects. There is an entire fleet of flying objects armed with high tech weapons and close encounters of every kind are found in the Bible

The connection of those beings to mankind is examined in scripture and the unbelievable ramifications of that relationship are unveiled. The book shows the abundance of UFO sightings and encounters throughout history as revealed in over a thousand recorded events. Scores of UFO quotations and government investigations are presented to bolster the evidence of a long-standing presence of non-human entities on Earth. The amazing structures and glaring evidence of advanced knowledge left behind by a civilization predating any known cultures capable of creating them are covered.

The Bible tells of the visitors from heaven, "The Nephilim were on the Earth in those days and also afterwards when the Children of the Gods saw the daughters of the Adam (humans) and took them as wives which ever they pleased." Chapter 6 of Genesis.

God speaks to Moses and appears over and over again right up to the Revelation of John and is pointed out as the key to recognizing the Second Coming. UFOs were there at the Exodus, and landed right in front of Ezekiel, and hovered overhead at the birth, baptism, transfiguration, and ascension of Jesus. Elijah rode in a UFO, Job was confronted by one, Jesus was brightly illuminated under one, and Paul was blinded by a UFO. It ascends, descends, hovers, spins, accelerates, flashes and glows. It can cause earthquakes, high winds, and destruction. This work declares that the "Great Deception" just might be the most obvious cover-up in history.

The Bible describes flying vehicles and Advanced Technology .

This section deals with the physical and flight characteristics of the flying vehicles in the Bible. It is important to understand that when the term heaven is used it generally refers to the word sky. The word "sky" or "skies" only appears a dozen times in the entire Bible, although most of the events occur outside.

(The painting the Baptism of Christ," is by Flemish painter Aert de Gelder, circa 1710, and is on display at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, England.)

The words "fly" and "flying" occurs 38 times that reveals examples of "godly" flight but, though these flights are described, in some instances, as being in the sky, they also flew in "heaven". The word "heaven" or "heavens" is translated from Hebrew and Greek words that mean "the sky", or directly related to the sky, in 99.7%, or all but two, of the 730 times it appears, in the Bible. The vehicles described in the Bible are flying in the sky. The research on this concept can be found here. Heaven Is The Sky.

The word elohiym, pronounced el-o-heem', is the plural of elowahh; gods in the ordinary sense; but specifically used in the plural thus, especially with the article of the supreme God. The word is definitely plural. And we believe that the Elohiym, the beings called God, which are led by the "individual" Elohiym called the Lord God named Yehovah, are not restricted by physical limitations, but do have a physical presence.  

The Vehicles What Are They Flying?

The Lord Jehovah of the Old Testament, and the Lord Jesus of the New Testament, is described as flying in thick clouds, swift clouds, bright clouds, dark clouds, white clouds, low clouds, great clouds, and fiery clouds. There are platforms, vessels, whirling chariots of fire, sky thrones, fiery horses, cherubims, thick darkness, great fire, whirlwinds, fiery wheels, pavilions, storms, sky dwellings, rolls, and sanctuaries.

Whether, or not, one believes these objects are actually flying vehicles that the God of the Bible lives in, appears with, travels in, and is considered the seat of his power is a matter of opinion. The fact that they do not appear without him or his ambassadors, and that, in most major appearances, he and other beings are clearly described as directly associated with these flying objects, is undeniable.

There are 362 verses describing natural and manmade
objects as vehicles in the Bible

Flight Characteristics

How Do These Vehicles Fly?

The fact that the objects described in the Bible are controlled, flying craft, is borne out by the flight characteristics of those objects. In Bible text the objects associated with the Elohiym are shown to exhibit rapid, prolonged flight, they ascend and descend, and they hover for extended periods. If these objects were just ethereal images created by ethereal beings, these flight descriptions would have no relevance. The fact that the authors wrote about the flight routine of these objects is evidence that they have a distinct physical presence.

There are 162 verses describing the specific
flight characteristics of vehicles in the Bible

The Beings

Who Is Commanding These High-Tech Flying Machines?

Two main beings are directly associated with the flying vehicles, the Elohiym, the gods, and the angels). Others include Archangels, Elders, Ministers, Saints, Watchers, and Men. There is another group which, though assumed to be living entities, is described in a manner that indicates they may be devices or machines.

This group includes Cherubim, Seraphim, Living Creatures, and Beasts. Also presented are the beings that are called Satan and his demons. A fleet of flying vehicles, described as the army, or Hosts of Jehovah, appears several times and the importance of this fleet to the Biblical narrative is seriously underrated.

Close encounters, from face to face conversations and beam-ups to meetings, are well documented in Biblical text and are a major part of many of the Bible's, more phenomenal, events.

Are These High Technology Vehicles Or Images?

Glowing and flashing lights, light beams, and guiding lights are the most frequently associated technological aspect of the flying objects of the Bible. Broadcasting of voices, sounds, and extreme vibrations are, ever present in close proximity to these craft. The term "glory" emerges as the combination of all these effects and is directly connected to the grandeur of the vehicle's appearance. Devices on board can alter weather patterns, cause earthquakes, dry up seas, level cities, and alter the planet's movements.

Beams of light that consume and transport beings and things are clearly described as an arsenal of what can only be called transporter beams, high-tech weapons imagined in science fiction. Mechanical devices adorning the vehicles are described as living things, but their movements point to synchronized movement, metal construction, and attached lights, unknown to primitive society, though easily recognized in this modern age.

Human bioengineering, mental manipulation, creating and healing diseases, and bringing the dead back to life that are described that mirror, as well as, exceed modern science. We do not claim that all miraculous events are caused by technological means, but many can be seen directly associated with many things we see in our modern world and the realm of science fiction.

Impact on Society ET and Religion

What will the impact be on religion when extraterrestrial life is discovered? It is a common assumption that such a discovery will be detrimental to core beliefs of religions around the world. You might be surprised to hear, however, that some experts believe the religious impact will be minor.

A panel discussion on this topic took place on Sunday, June 24 at the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institutes SETIcon II conference in Santa Clara, California. This panel, titled "Would Discovering ET Destroy Earths Religions?" concluded that the resulting impact on religion from an alien discovery is "probably not going to be as severe as we might initially think." That is according to panelist Doug Vakoch, the director of Interstellar Message Composition at the SETI Institute. The major impact would likely be on scientists. (Photo Credit: SETI Institute)

Mike Wall of Space.com points out that "The Bible, Koran and other sacred texts of the worlds major religions stress Gods special concern for humanity and for Earth," so discovering ET "might seem threatening, by implying that we and our planet arent all that special."

But as SETI Institute senior astronomer Seth Shostak mentioned during the panel, "We havent been the center of the universe for a while now — four centuries."
Ancient astronomers Nicolaus Copernicus and Galileo Galilei countered the established belief that the sun and everything else in the universe revolved around Earth. This was viewed as blasphemy by the Catholic Church. The present-day Vatican, however, is much more open to science and the possibilities of life elsewhere in the universe.

(Father Jos Gabriel Funes}

In a 2009 interview with Vatican newspaper LOsservatore Romano, Father Jos Gabriel Funes, the director of the Vatican observatory, stated, "As a multiplicity of creatures exist on Earth, so there could be other beings, also intelligent, created by God. This does not contrast with our faith because we cannot put limits on the creative freedom of God."

U.S. Speeds Up Deployment of Aircraft Carrier to the Middle East

July 17, 2012  MIDDLE EAST - The U.S. Defense Department is speeding deployment of the Navys John C. Stennis aircraft carrier group to the Middle East, four months ahead of its scheduled deployment. Marine Corps General James Mattis, commander of the U.S. Central Command, sought the earlier presence of the Stennis strike group and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta approved the request.

Little said, "Sending the Stennis group ahead of schedule was intended to avoid having just one aircraft carrier group in the Middle East when the USS Enterprise carrier group leaves the region later this year".

Russian and Chinese ships are also steaming to the Mediterranean Sea for a huge Exercise to show support for Syria.

In June, the Pentagon announced a nine- month deployment of the carrier Dwight D. Eisenhower to the area. "The Stennis Strike Group will include the Navys Aegis destroyer USS Mobile Bay and a contingent of 5,500 sailors," Little said. - Bloomberg

Russian War Supply Ship Is Bound for Syria :

A Russian ship believed to be carrying helicopters and missiles for Syria has been effectively stopped in its tracks off the coast of Scotland after its insurance was cancelled at the behest of the British government. The British marine insurer Standard Club said it had withdrawn cover from all the ships owned by Femco, a Russian cargo line including the MV Alaed.

"We were made aware of the allegations that the Alaed was carrying munitions destined for Syria," the company said in a statement. "We have already informed the ship owner that their insurance cover ceased automatically in view of the nature of the voyage." Thanks to the Telegraph

Syria Collapse Possible

Aleppo A thousand rebels launched an offensive against Aleppo over the weekend in an attempt to wrest the city from government forces. Rebels have taken key portions of the city of Aleppo and for the first time Syrian Fighter jets have bombed and strafed the rebels in Eastern areas of Syria's second largest city.

Russian made helicopter gunships also attacked the rebels. The fighter attacks, which followed an artillery barrage, are seen as a significant escalation in the conflict. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says territorial gains made by the rebels will eventually result in a "safe haven" inside Syria.

The fighter attacks on rebels indicate the Bashar Assad's regime is getting desperate to stop the rebellion. The situation is similar to Tripoli a year ago, and the rebellion appears to gaining strength. Russia, Iran, and China support the government and are sending supplies. The Russians have a naval supply base at Tartus, and fear the loss of international credibility if their ally is abandoned.

Turkey and probably the US and Israel are providing war supplies to the rebels. It is doubtful European nations will launch attacks like in Libya.

U.S. policymakers are bracing for a potential "collapse" of the power structure inside Syria following a bomb attack that left several key Syrian regime officials dead. Damascus the capital of Syria saw an unprecedented attack last Wednesday, when a bomb ripped through a high-level security meeting and killed at least three high level officials. 

Syrian TV confirmed the deaths of Defense Minister Dawoud Rajha, 65, a former army general and the most senior government official to be killed in the rebels' battle to oust Assad.

Also killed was General Assef Shawkat,

(Shown here) the deputy defense minister who is married to Assad's elder sister; and Hassan Turkmani, a former defense minister who died of wounds suffered in the attack.

The government is using most all of its capabilities against the rebellion but it seems to gaining strength.

Brigadier General Tlas's who commanded the 10th Brigade of the elite Republican Guard announced his decision to abandon Bashar al-Assad. He was an important Sunni figure in the president's inner circle.

Sightings in the United States

Alaska Disc

My brother, who lives in Alaska, posted this photo on Facebook. I have NOT asked him for permission to send you this photo. Im just curious what it is. He hadnt noticed it until I pointed the disc out. The object is in the upper left shot on January 1, 2010.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Arizona CH-47 Chinook. Airlifts a Craft

In February 2012, a Boeing CH-47 Chinook airlifted a craft resembling an alien disk! Look carefully at this disk like object which appears to have its landing gear down. The Chinook has a 50 foot long fuselage; the UFO looks to be longer at about 53 feet. Since the Chinook can carry 33 passengers not including the pilots, then this UFO would be able to carry more since it would be 53 feet in all directions, rather only one direction like the helicopter.

California Triangle

Granada Hills I looked into the northern sky from Granada Hills on July 17, 2012, to see three lights forming a triangular shape that appeared to be rotating slowly. Two of the lights faded out while one continued. Two more lights rose up and faded out rather quickly while the third light remained bright and began to move west toward me and then drift down and to the south followed by a slow change in direction to the north. Finally it descended and became so dim you couldnt see it anymore. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Colorado Cylinder

Robert writes, "I took this photo of the waning moon rising on July 5, 2012, at 10:36 pm. ", I wanted to take a few shots of the moon rising through the forest fire smoke. I got more than just the Moon as you can see.

My wife was outside with me when I took this photo. I use a tripod mounted camera and the timer delay. Neither of us saw anything when I took this photo. I used a long exposure around 1.5s, so that object had to hang their motionless for the full exposure.

Thanks to Robert 

Florida Triangle and Light

Punta Gorda -- My wife had been seeing lights in the sky so I started paying attention to the sky. On July 21, 2012, I noticed a strange formation of clouds that looked like a mushroom with high activity of lighting. In the bottom of this cloud I noticed a strange triangle of lights which I thought was a reflection on my glasses. I started recording from my iPhone and noticed the light flew abruptly changing directions and vanishing. Thanks to MUFON CMS

On July13, 2012, I saw this happen three times and then I caught it on film...watch what happens at 15 seconds... seems like cloud becomes energized and the light source shuts off or moves away.. There was minimal to zero wind and minimal cloud movement.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Georgia Orb

ATLANTA--

Originally published on Jul 12, 2012 by ses76.

The submitter states at the end of January 2012, my friend Andrea took this footage from an airplane window on a flight from Florida to Atlanta.

It was originally recorded on a DCR-HC52 Sony Handycam Digital Video.

She could not transfer the footage from the camera into a workable format until now.

This UFO is the same craft that I have seen on four occasions and featured on my video 'UFO Cloaks as Jupiter.' Five days after recording the footage Andrea's cell phone and laptop permanently stopped functioning. The footage was not harmed. It is some of the best raw UFO footage I have seen.

Idaho UFO

fernan lake road -- I have been seeing and hearing about UFO sightings for a long time.

I have lived in North Idaho for 26 years and witnessed UFO s three times. Now I finally got one on camera so here it is .

Illinois Triangle

KEWANEE -- I finally feel the urge to get my story out. As a sophomore in high school I enjoyed riding around and drove towards Windmont Park at 11 pm, when I noticed a bluish-white light that was amazingly bright heading upwards. As I kept watching the light rose up and I saw three lights in a delta formation. This craft was huge and 200-300 feet. I was freaking out as it swiveled around a central axis and moved towards me. I quickly threw my car in reverse and started to back up. In the center of the craft a pinpoint light between the triangulation lights shot a spot light beam directed towards the ground in front of me. I backed up my car to keep out of the light and threw my car in drive, spun around and sped away. I quickly drove home in a panic and my mother asked, "Was I okay?" I was pale white and had the shakes. Thanks to MUFON CMS

La Salle I am a Commercial Pilot with 40 years of flying experience in General Aviation aircraft and I was driving home on July 21, 2012, when I saw an object hovering over the road. I passed under it and drove home and as I drove into the driveway observed a multitude of objects moving from west to east. I watched for a few minutes and started to take pictures. I was amazed as the brightly lit object changed directions silently. I lost sight of them when the objects flew north into an overcast layer. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Indiana UFOs

BLANFORD Richard Bondira has been photographing UFOs on clear nights since January 2012.

He sent me dozens of photographs of UFO that he has filmed over the last six months. As many as ten or more UFOs can be seen on some nights. They mostly hover but can be seen maneuvering, spin around, or go straight up. They usually come from the southeast heading northwest. They stretch across the night sky from east to west. Thanks to Richard Bondira

Kentucky Square

LOUISVILLE -- At 8:15 PM, on July 15, 2012, my wife and I were standing on our deck when both saw an oval shaped object with a red ring underneath. It had three round lights along its keel and flying at 3500 feet east, in a straight line. As the object got closer my wife brought out our 35mm camera with 30 power zoom. By the time I got focused on the object, it was directly above us but the red ring and the three lights were no longer visible. The silent object had also changed shape to a cube and suddenly disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Massachusetts Lights

Brimfield -- Two friends and I were traveling from towards Palmer and a kite shaped object with lights distinguishing the points moves over the canopy of the trees to the right of the highway. Within a second the object was flying in the same direction as we were traveling and had gained speed and was now a few miles ahead of us. The object moved very rapidly out of sight while ascending. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Missouri Triangle

Blue Springs -- This triangle of lights was seen from the Hy-Vee parking lot on July 17, 2012, at 10:35 pm. I thought it was some of those Chinese Lanterns so I went in the store to .get others to see it. When I went back outside they were quickly gone that led me to believe it wasnt lanterns. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New York Triangle Lights

BROOKLYN -- The night of July 18, 2012, my brother and I were relaxing in the backyard at around 3:45 am. I saw a light that looked much brighter than the rest. A few minutes later my brother pointed out a brighter light coming from behind my neighbors house.

We saw actual airplanes flying by in the sky, but they would vanish quickly. We then saw a blinking/pulsating red light near the two bright white lights and realized it was not an airplane. The three lights were in a perfect triangle formation and were flying slowly in an ascending. All the lights stayed in a perfect triangle and then would swell into a bigger ball of light. We started hearing strange vibrations like a vibrating cell phone. An hour later it was still ascending and all the lights remained in perfect formation as the lights disappeared into a cloud. Thanks to MUFON CMS

North Carolina Lights

Asheville I was approaching Amboy Road at 8:30 PM, on July 21, 2012, from I-240 East and noticed what looked like a constellation of bright lights towards the Asheville-Buncombe Technical College. There were at least 15 lights and upwards to 25 hanging in the air with only slight movement as we were driving towards them. As we approached the intersection of Lyman Street, and Amboy Road the lights had moved south towards us. They were now looking like separate intense mercury vapor spheres slowly floating away from the campus area. Some disappeared down to five lights and then some reappeared. When we reached the campus, we could see six lights. We turned around and suddenly the lights were gone. My son, my wife and daughter saw the spheres and he was able to get a picture with his cell phone. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ohio Lights

Middletown My girlfriend and I were driving down a very populated road in Middletown on April, 14, 2012 at about 9:30 pm. I looked up and saw four lights, and then one of the four lights began flying around the other three lights, giving off a long trail of orange/red flames making it look more like a meteor with intelligence. I filmed the objects. It was too agile and fast for a plane. It looked like flying meteors with intelligence and flying formations.
Then the fourth one flew in front of the three lights and stopped. Then the three lights aligned themselves and drifted into the clouds and then disappeared again. We pulled over to the side of the road and I videotaped a fourth one with my IPhone that maneuvered and then disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Pennsylvania Lights

Philadelphia -- I saw a UFO in Philly skies for more than four hours on October 11, 2011.

I have also put videos on YouTube. All four videos are named UFO over Philly, or UFO in Philly skies .

Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

South Carolina Lights

Myrtle Beach I was having dinner with family in a condo overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on July 18, 2012, when my Uncle yelled for all of us to go out on the balcony. At first, I thought it was a star or plane as the lights slowly increased from a small to a larger orange ball. Then after several seconds it faded out and performed the same movement farther north. Next it would be farther south. At one point there were three lights that turned on individually then faded to black individually. The object disappeared after several minutes and we went back to enjoying the evening. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Utah Light

West Valley City -- I was out sky watching alone with 10x50 binoculars mounted on a tripod. At 10:14 pm , on July 17, 2012. I spotted an object moving north above me. It had an orange glow flying at about 10 thousand feet in altitude (AGL).

It was silent moving at a moderate speed. As I watched it with binoculars it dimmed a little and disappeared almost instantly. I spotted it as it disappeared flying north of the star Vega.
I have seen many such objects like this making 90 degree turns. It is too bad more people arent more observant. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Washington D.C. Light

D.C. -- Probes were hovering in the skies on July 17, 2012, at 1 am, at the local park. I captured a video of UFOs hovering in the sky. It was not a model airplane as the object would move very rapidly in an indiscernible pattern and is engulfed in light that obscures the actual vessel.

This probe produces a field that can generate images of objects, people, and entities. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Worldwide Sightings

Argentina : Mysterious Events in Western Buenos Aires

Four out of ten Argentina people have seen UFOs.

Diario Popular reports, "Lights are streaking swiftly across the sky, strange flying objects that draw the attention of local residents at different times of day, remarks from other residents claiming abductions by intelligences from other worlds and even a little girl who states that small, big-eyed children come to get her to play with a person she identifies as Jesus these are some of the enigmatic circumstances that can be found in the so-called "Western Corridor" of Greater Buenos Aires and, which according to one researcher, constitute a glimpse into a mysterious and undefined situation." 15 July 2012
Fabin Torti, a member of the Grupo Tecnico de Asistencia Psicolgica OVNI (GRU.TAP Technical Group for Psychological UFO Assistance), provides a psychological and sociological focus for the multiple UFO events reported. Torti pointed out "Many strange situations are being recorded, within the Province of Buenos Aires." An abductee, "Provides details that that cannot be invented," says Torti, she noted that the intelligences taking her "did not stand on the floor, but were suspended over the surface, and that she saw a human being with wires connected between his head and a monitor that displayed his thoughts."

A five-year-old girl says, "Small, big-eyed kids come to get her, and take her to play with Jesus," in her own words."One of our members photographed strange objects in the sky, and in my particular case, whenever I leave home early on a Saturday morning I see a round object in the sky. A group of youngsters barbecuing outside a house witnessed around midnight an intense luminous orb that irradiated shades of yellow and red.

The not yet fully explained explosion of 26 September 2011 in Montegrande, may have been the crash of a UFO according to Torti. The researcher recalls that the morning after the explosion, "One could see black SUVs, people speaking English and German, and teams working behind screens as they took away chunks of metal that were left after the explosion."

Brazil Cigar-shaped UFO

Patrocnio -- Minas Gerais State, a UFO hovered over the city for about one hour, from 2 pm to 3:00 pm. It was seen for a lot of people all over the city, even causing a live broadcast in the local radio. Better description of the event in the video attached. Thanks to MUFON CMS

ARAGUAIA RIVER --I would like to know what the object is that appears in the photo on July 8, 2012. It may be an anomaly or is it something that was in heaven?

The photo was taken during a fishing trip. Location approximate (1241'29.24"S 5038'53.32"W) Thanks to FALM 

Canada Disc

PICKERING -- I saw over ten orbs passing through a few kilometer break in the clouds on July 16, 2012. They were heading SSE over Toronto. I ran into my work and grabbed the first person I could, and he saw two orbs. We stayed outside for ten minutes and saw nothing else. I came out five minutes later to see an orb following the same path just coming into sight. I banged on the window of my work, and two workmates came out to observe the last orb. We saw planes that were easily distinguishable from the orbs. This is unlike anything my workmates and I have seen before. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Vernon I saw light in sky towards west at about 11 pm on July 21, 2012. It was bright orange and flew south and then disappeared. The light reappeared ten minutes later in same spot it and flew south again and slowly disappeared.

The orange light reappeared again and we videotaped as it faded into nothing. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Chile Light

Santiago -- This video was taken by my brother on May 10, 2008, about 1:15 AM from a residential area. He used a Sony Handycam H18xR.

The resolution from the original tape is better quality than the one Im sending here. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Guam Lights

DEDEDO -- Driving at night on July 15, 2012, on Salisbury Street I headed north towards Dededo at 35 mph, and I saw two lights mirroring each other, up until one started circling the other in a slow decent. Before the other circled its partner in a slow manner, the gap between the two fluctuated. Gradually increasing and decreasing at a relatively slow speed. I don't know what to make of it, but relate it to the solar flare event that took place last week? I worked in aviation for six years and have a degree in the field. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Portugal Flying Clouds

Gniezno I was taking pictures of the clouds on July 15, 2012, when an object expanded into a cylinder. I tried to see what it is.

After zooming it can look like a drill from the top.

UK/England

BRIGHTEN -- I was sitting at my desk by the window in my office on June 15, 2012, when I leaned back into my chair, and noticed a black dot in the sky. It was traveling in my direction, so I ran into the front room and grabbed my binoculars. My wife and daughters were I was sitting at my desk by the window in my office, when I leaned back into my chair, and noticed Black dot in the sky. It was traveling in my direction, so I ran into the front room and grabbed my binoculars. My wife and daughters were in there at the time, and asked what I was doing. I then looked thru the binoculars and got a good visual on the tumbling object. It was a black, disk shaped with a proud centre. It was very odd! We all ran out to the garden to observe it, and that is when I shot video footage on my mobile phone. The object descended then changed direction and started emitting white lights, flash, and then a red glow. The object would stop flipping and even flipped back on itself whilst maintaining a flight path. We watched as it disappeared in the distance. Thanks to MUFON CMS

SUPER EARTH: Scientists discover life-supporting planet 'right at Earth's front door'

Gilese 581 has "churchly weather" similar to what we experience in Australia and could support human life. Picture: AP

ASTRONOMERS have discovered a planet that may be capable of supporting human life, and it's right at Earth's front door.

"It's not just in our backyard, it's right in our face," lead researcher Professor Steven Vogt said.
The planet is 22 light years away, previously thought to be 20 light years, and is formally known as Gliese 581g, but Professor Vogt told news.com.au that he has since named it after his wife.
"I called it 'Zarmina's world'," Professor Vogt said.
While his claims have been previously reported, a new study, released to News.com.au this week, dismisses calls of balderdash by the international science community. 
The study - by astronomers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and the Carnegie Institution of Washington - shows the planet is twice the size of Earth. It is known as a "super Earth" due to its ability to hold on to its gassy atmosphere, which increases its chances of retaining liquid.
Whether this liquid is frozen and stored under the surface or flowing freely across the planet, the researchers can't say.
The scientist from the University of California said that the planet has "churchly weather".
"From the energy bounds and brightness of the star we can tell that the temperatures would be just about right to stand on the surface and feel the warmth of the alien star on your face, like standing in the park in Sydney."
However the researchers were unable to determine what the surface of the planet is like, Professor Vogt said.
The planet exists in a band of perpetual twilight near its orbiting star known as the "Goldilocks zone" - an area near earth that isn't too hot, or cold but is just right for sustaining life.
Prof Vogt said scientists will eventually be able to send out probes in search for advanced civilisations
"If you get lucky and find civilisations, you'd be able to have a two-way conversation within a human life-time," he said. "You don't want to have to spend 1000 years waiting to hear 'wazzup', and then another 1000 years before they get to hear not much, and you?'."
The researcher said after making first contact, scientists may receive an answer within 44 years.
"Within a few hundred years you could be able to receive picture postcards from an iPhone or Android and be able to listen to what they sound like, and sample their way of life from a spacecraft," he said.
"There is something out there."
These findings are not without controversy, however.
This isn't the first time Professor Vogt has claimed the existence of a habitable planet. His findings back in 2010 sparked a scientific cat fight between the US researchers and a rival team of Swiss astronomers, known as "HARPS" (High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet).
HARPS published research saying it had found four planets that orbited the same star as Gliese 581g (which at the time had not yet been confirmed).
Prof Vogt's team questioned the team's data and suggested two more planets existed in the Goldilock's Zone and published its findings in the US’s Astrophysical Journal.
HARPS claimed that Vogt's research was nonsense, creating waves in the scientific community.
The international media then seized on HARPS and Vogt's data, reporting problems with both team's research.
A year later the HARPS team released expanded data on its findings confirming the existence of four planets but not Vogt's extra two.
Vogt's team then analysed HARPS data and tried unsuccessfully to replicate the findings.
Prof Vogt told news.com.au that they discovered that the Swiss team omitted five points of data which related to the radial velocity of the planets because it didn't fit their data model or modes of thinking.
“Such setting of eccentricities introduces biases and personal choices into the model that inappropriately affect the resulting solution,” Prof Vogt wrote in the study, which was provided to News.com.au.
"You're basically deliberately deleting information in your data that's telling you there's more in the system than you're telling people about. You're hiding that stuff,” he told News.com.au.
Prof Vogt's study will be published in European astrophysics journal, Astronomisch Naschrischten tomorrow (AEST).

The Return of The Incredible Green Fireballs: New Films of a UFO Mystery

By Anthony Bragalia
The Bragalia Files
7-17-12

     Nature provides man with wondrous atmospheric displays from comets to the Northern Lights. As awe-inspiring and infrequent as these phenomena are, they all have prosaic origins as explained by science. Much less understood (and far more rare) are the enigmatic Green Fireballs. The Green Fireball is often associated with historical sightings that occurred in areas like the State of New Mexico and near our National Laboratories, such as Sandia and Los Alamos. These unusually-behaved luminous balls of ethereal green were very different from conventional meteors and were seen to perform extraordinary aerial feats during the late 1940s and early 1950s. Military and intelligence authorities at that time even had a top-secret project called “Twinkle” whose objective was to trace the mysterious green fireballs plaguing Southwest skies in particular. Then for some inexplicable reason, appearances of the green balls of fire tapered down and “winked out.”
Or did they?

– Revealed here are remarkable images (recently found buried within NASA space footage archives) of a Green Fireball that seems to “follow” our astronauts.

– Striking and exceeding rare film has been located, also taken from space, where one can vividly see the strange Green Fireballs doing the impossible: exiting the earth’s atmosphere rather than entering it.

– High definition, non-hoaxed film taken this past Spring (with link below) clearly depicts a slow, “watchful” Green Fireball passing above excited witnesses for several minutes- not seconds. The object is comprised of matter but displays a luminous halo of “energy” and seems to change shape into a “diamond.”

– Documented recent reports referenced here that have been filed of Green Fireballs that wildly morph their appearance and “pace” their observers.

The glowing green balls are now exhibiting behavior so distinctly unnatural and never-before-seen that the conclusion draws near: Some of this phenomenon is intelligent and it is evolving in its revealed capability. It is able to mimic nature while traversing at will above us with a purpose unknown.

Green Fireballs: Natural and Artificial

Of course astronomers recognize the term “Green Fireballs” in conventional terms as naturally-occurring atmospheric events. Infrequently, shooting meteors of sufficient mass and velocity can create a “shockwave” hot enough to produce a Green Fireball. It is a cosmic phenomena associated with the color green that is caused in part by ionized oxygen (and is similar in color to that of a green aurora.) Recent research at Queensland University points to a possible connection to “ball lightning” electrical phenomenon as well. Sightings of most all such Green Fireballs can be accounted for in these (largely) understood, prosaic ways.

Only very occasionally ever filmed clearly, here we see a conventional “shooting” Green Fireball over Ocean Shores in 2008, towards the very end of this 44 second clip (incorrectly titled “UFO Green Fireball”- as it is indeed a green meteor):



A “conventional” Green Fireball is very simply a mass of stony or metallic matter that has fallen to earth from outer space. As can be seen in the above clip, it appears as a transient, fiery streak, otherwise known as a “falling star.”

But there are a core of sightings of Green Fireball-like phenomena that are distinctly different than conventional fireballs or green meteors - and that elude conventional explanation. It is this phenomenon that does not appear to find its origin with the realm of known atmospheric or celestial events. This unknown phenomenon was first noted officially and scientifically in 1948. Such illustrious scientists as astronomer Dr. Lincoln LaPaz (who was also involved in the Roswell crash investigation in 1947 according to multiple credible sources) initiated Green Fireball investigations utilizing expensive monitoring equipment (including an installation placed only 30 miles from the Roswell crash-involved Foster Ranch.) So concerned was the military that such sightings were occurring near rocketry and nuclear sites that a top secret conference was organized about the issue and attended by luminaries including Dr. Edward Teller. Opinions were divergent and studies, inconclusive.

In 1965 LaPaz privately confided to the Air Force’s Dr. J. Allen Hynek of Project Blue Book his last known word on the flying green balls: LaPaz was sure that certain fireballs’ anomalous characteristics were never really understood by himself or by officials- and that they did not behave like normal meteorites- and were most probably “artificial” in their origin. Despite best efforts, a certain class of Green Fireballs resisted all attempts at sustained filming and at determining trajectory- or in ever recovering any expected celestial debris. We have learned that this class of “artificial” Green Fireball phenomenon displays essential differences from “conventional” green meteors:

- They favor and cluster in specific geographic areas and sometimes near highly-sensitive locations.

- They appear episodically and even seem to “leave” us all together, only to reveal themselves again years later.

- They do not emit smoke trails (but sometimes have unusual ‘tails’).

- They change direction and angle of travel (sometimes sharply and abruptly, unlike conventional “shooting” meteoric phenomena).

- They have no impact sites and have never left any evidence of any type of their descent to earth.

- They do not always “shoot” or dart quickly, as they can also change their speed- and can sometimes maneuver far more slowly than meteors and other entering cosmic debris.

- They can possess “lime green” colorations that are not consistent with known celestial phenomena.

These anomalous characteristics left LaPaz and others forever perplexed. One can only wonder what they might think of their even more incredible aerial behavior today, documented on film.

- They travel impossibly upward and outward through our atmosphere and into space.

- They follow and track our astronauts.

- They can hover silently and with precision and even appear to even “watch” their observers.

- They can morph their shape.

The Green fireball That left The Earth To Follow The Astronauts - On Film

In scouring the deepest recesses of official NASA archived images online, located were photos and film of the Green Fireball taken from space that to my eyes are nothing short of astounding. And I was equally astounded that at least one other has also found the same thing.

In May of this year researcher Wilbur Allen spoke at a small conference which featured a call-in from his friend, Moon-walker Dr. Edgar Mitchell. Mr. Allen (who has professional interest in photography and was once employed as a White House engineer) delivered a presentation that included a brief segment of film that somehow made its way passed NASA censors. The film, taken by Apollo 7 in 1968, has been discovered to include clear moving images of a Green Fire Ball that is exiting –not entering- the Earth’s atmosphere. Further, it careens into space and is photographed by the astronauts! Allen notes yet another astronaut-filmed image of a Green Fireball in space which has received very little notice involving Buzz Aldrin- a man whose comments on ET have been both full of hints and contradictions. Allen also provides a striking comparative analysis of green fireballs using a solarization imaging technique.

You can see this very-little-viewed film here now, with the relevant portion beginning at about 1:58 of this 8 minute clip. It is best seen in a darkened room, full-screen at a minimally 480p quality resolution:



Below is a clear, still image of the Green Ball. (Excuse the crude box used to highlight the object. The NASA original is a much larger image not suitable to show here due to space constraints):

Green Fireball That Hovers, Follows Observers, and was Filmed!

For several minutes on October 9th, 2011, an excited Chicagoan and friends filmed a Green Fireball (that also morphed into a diamond-shape.) Shot clearly in 300X zoom, the resulting footage shows in astounding detail a flying Green Ball which possesses some kind of defined structure and which appears comprised of matter as well as a sort of high-state “energy.” The luminous aerial wonder changes shape and appears in ethereal green colors, encircled by a halo which is the hue of an ‘electric violet.’ The flight pattern is intentional and slow enough to be filmed for minutes- not seconds. See it yourself here in a little-mentioned 8-minute film, best viewed full-screen at minimally 480p quality resolution. You may wish to turn down the accompanying distracting ambient music:



The Green Balls of Fire Continue To Fly

A review of Green Fireball UFOs reported to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) shows that sightings of such phenomenon are on the rise and that their performance capabilities are evolving. Two notable, documented examples:

- In January of 2012 (MUFON Case # 34457) in New Mexico (a state long favored by the Green Fireballs) witnesses sighted one descending toward them. Then remarkably, its position suddenly changed to one of flying level. It then morphed its shape from a fireball into a slightly shiny V-shaped object and out of view! This is reminiscent of the filmed October 2011 episode above, where the “ball” becomes a “diamond” shape.

- In March of 2010 (MUFON Case # 22579) we learn of a report filed by a married couple in Florida who are described as “astronomy fans” who have seen many meteors. This green one however, was markedly different. They were surprised at how utterly slow the object moved as it passed closely by them (at about the speed of a single engine prop airplane) and that its brightness never wavered.

The Great Green Fireball is curious of us. Fleeting and ever furtive, it is secretive and evasive. It lets us glimpse it (and now even film it) but it never lets us “get it” to touch it. This is was Dr. LaPaz’ very lament. As he said, “it was not natural.” It acts with aptitude. It comprehends and it discerns. We can speculate that it is a sentient ball of light, a probe, a craft. But we cannot be sure. The only thing that is really certain is that the phenomena is real- and that its secrets will be revealed to us only if and when it ever wishes to do so.

In special reports, this weeks files cover: Universe is full of Earth size Planets,

The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Dear Readers, if you are sending emails to me I spent several days reading them but I have over 24,808 left to read in multiple languages. If I do not answer your query I apologize, but I feel it is more important to write these files.

Newly Released UK National Archives Files (U.S. plays dumb, still).

The National Archives has been released on 12 July 2012.

Its files, contain over 6,700 pages of UFO policy, parliamentary questions, public correspondence and UFO sighting reports.

The files reveal the role of the UFO Desk Officers for the first time, including what they really thought about the possibility of alien visits, their ideas to harness alien technology as a weapon, and their briefings to Tony Blair on UFO policy.

One of the strangest jobs in Whitehall; Dr David Clarke, author of the book  'The UFO files' and Senior Lecturer in Journalism from Sheffield Hallam University, said: 'These records allow us to look behind the scenes of what must have been one of the strangest jobs in Whitehall. We now have a fascinating insight into some of the extraordinary reports and briefings which passed over the UFO Desk on a daily basis and how its officers used logic and science in their attempts to explain the unexplained".

The 'daily mechanics' of the UFO Desk Officer job included providing briefings on the Ministry of Defence's position on UFOs and extraterrestrial life, undertaking UFO investigations, handling hundreds of Freedom of Information (FOI) requests, and managing UFO 'experts' and press enquiries.

Among the files is a 1995 briefing by a UFO Intelligence Officer which states that although there is no hard evidence for alien craft, if sightings were indeed alien visitors there was a number of possible reasons for their visit, including 'a) military reconnaissance b) scientific c) tourism'.

The briefing paper also states that if the reports were to be believed, alien technology was far superior to ours and goes on to suggest that the Ministry of Defence could use the UFO technology, if it existed.

Further highlights

A lengthy briefing on UFO policy to Prime Minister Tony Blair's office at the time the government had just begun the implementation of the FOI Act

Findings of an Unexplained Aerial Phenomena study suggested that some UFOs were rare atmospheric plasmas that could be used by the military as 'novel weapon technology'

A 1982 memo notes a fall in numbers of UFO sightings since the beginning of the Falklands War but 'large numbers of UFOs have been seen in the vicinity of the Task Force - presumably Little Green Men in ponchos'

A late night visit by three 'men in black' to a person who reported having a UFO encounter in Spalding, Lincolnshire. The UFO witness later had no recollection of either the men or the UFO encounter

The files are free to download for a month at  nationalarchives.gov.uk/ufos.

You can also  read a guest post by David Clarke about the files on our  blog.

A new edition of David Clarke's book 'The UFO files' is also coming soon - sign up for our  free e-newsletter to find out when this edition becomes available, and to receive notification on the latest UFO files releases. See more data below at Wales.

Prime Minister Tony Blair was briefed on the UK's files about UFO sightings in 1998, newly declassified MoD documents have revealed.

Writer Nick Redfern urged him to "consider making available for public scrutiny all of the many and varied UFO reports compiled by the government".

The request came as the government began to implement Freedom of Information (FOI requests).

Some 6,700 pages of UFO documents have been released by the National Archives.

Chelsea FC sighting

The documents also include details of a briefing made before a House of Lords debate on UFOs in 1979, and reveal that former Prime Minister John Major had been asked by a fellow MP in 1996 whether the government would set up a national inquiry into UFO sightings.

The declassified documents - from the MoD unit which investigated UFO claims from 1950 until it was shut down in 2009 - also include several sightings and investigations.

Dr David Clarke, author of the book The UFO files and senior lecturer in journalism from Sheffield Hallam University pushed to have these files released.

He said: "These records allow us to look behind the scenes of what must have been one of the strangest jobs in Whitehall".

A spate of sightings in west Wales in 1977 which included a hotel owner seeing two tall silver-suited "faceless humanoids" which began making measurements.

A UFO sighting in Spalding, Lincolnshire, which led to the witness being visited by three tall men in black suits who seemed to move silently.

A mounted police officer seeing a "square/diamond shaped object moving across the sky and changing shape" whilst on duty at Chelsea FC ground in 1999.

An RAF Air Commodore describing in a memo to Defence Intelligence Staff that he had seen a UFO flying above him when he was flying at 40,000 feet.

A memo noting claims the naval task force sailing to liberate the Falklands in 1982 had been shadowed by UFOs.

'X Files' fiction

Files relating to the unit have been transferred to the National Archive since 2007.

The documents also include an email from an intelligence officer working on the desk who described the daily mechanics of the role.

The officer says it is not the MoD's role to confirm or deny the possibility of extraterrestrials, but to gauge whether unidentified objects are a threat to the UK's security.

In an email he says discussion of the unit "tends to suggest to the public that there are Top Secret teams of specialist scientists scurrying around the country in a real life version of the X-Files [But] this is total fiction."

The files will be free to view for a month. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18797691

Italy Marshal Giancarlo Cecconi Film-Radar-Visual Case

Pilot Giancarlo Cecconi, in his G-91R fighter is attached to the 14 Group 2nd' Air Force Fighter Wing is returning to Treviso Air Base, Italy after having carried out a reconnaissance mission on June 18, 1979, at 11:30 AM. The Istrana radar center (TV), registers the presence of an intruder on its radar screens, and gives Cecconi directions to approach the unidentified craft that has penetrated a prohibited area. Having unused film in his aircraft cameras, the pilot activates them and approaches the UFO up to a distance of 70-80 meters and at speeds estimated at 300 knots (450-500 km. The airport ground staff follows the scene with binoculars. The Treviso Control Tower personnel call Cecconi to warn him that the object is discharging a strange "blue trail." He is in close pursuit at 7,000 feet altitude but does not know its wake. When the Pilot closes on the object it makes up and down movements a 1,000 feet at a time, climbing up to 13,000 feet. Cecconi makes seven to eight passes close to the object and each time takes gun camera film of the UFO resulting in a total of 82 frames depicting the intruder. The apparent UFO is stationary relative to the G-91, but the radar center confirms Cecconi it is moving, course and speed defined. The pilot tries to pass (and resume) just next door, but it does not succeed because the object "appears to operate" in order to get over him in the front angled or otherwise, without the side completely set before him [3].

 The witness recalls a "gas tank" of matte black and the presence of a small white or clear "dome" located on the upper side, of the slightly flattened object. The "dome" is like a kind of shaping or fairing like those found on sports cars. While Cecconi is making yet another tack to get back to doing another round of photographs, Istrana radar calls to report the object suddenly disappeared from theirs and other radars. After a few seconds, the Treviso control tower confirms the UFO has visually disappeared.

A few minutes later, the plane lands and the films are removed and quickly developed. The pilot is very curious to see the pictures that came out well, including the white.""dome" The object is a cylindrical tank at least eight meters long (26 feet) with a maximum three in diameter suspended in the sky at thirteen thousand feet high."

The case is important because of the gun camera film, radar, and visual confirmation with several witnesses including a highly respected fighter pilot... http://www.facebook.com/n/?photo.php&fbid=3853045898075

X-37 B Space Plane Lands.

VANDENBERG --CNN reports The U.S. Air Force's robotic X-37B space plane finally returned to Earth Saturday (June 16), wrapping up a mysterious mission that lasted more than year in orbit.

The unmanned X-37B spacecraft, also known as Orbital Test Vehicle-2 (OTV-2), glided back to Earth on autopilot, touching down at California's Vandenberg Air Force Base at 5:48 a.m. The mission lasted more than 15 months with objectives that remain shrouded in secrecy.

This same craft is due to launch again in the fall 2012. Air Force officials announced the X-37B space plane's successful landing in a brief statement posted on the Vandenberg website.

The X-37B stayed in orbit for 469 days this time. Thanks to USAF.

New Race of Super Earthlings

Scientists have made an unexpected and unsettling discovery - a large number of new and previously unseen mutations have been detected among humans. There are those who suggest that there will soon be fantastic X-men. This unexpected discovery is a result of a study conducted by scientists from Cornell University and University of California.

When they examined genes of several thousands of people from around the world, it turned out that mankind has acquired over the past few years new, previously unseen mutations. Is a new human race being born? The scientist studied 202 genes in 14,002 people. The human genome contains some 3 billion base pairs; the scientists studied 864,000 of these pairs. While this is only a small part of the genome, the sample size of 14,002 people is one of the largest ever in a sequencing study in humans.

This project led by John Novembre of the University of California Los Angeles and Vincent Mooser of UK-based drug company GlaxoSmithKline, reports that more than 95% of variants found by sequencing 202 genes in 14,002 people were rare, and that 74% of the variants were carried by only one or two people in the study.

Editors Note: The human race is changing, perhaps due to alien abductions. There are few if any mutations in chimpanzees or apes some of our closest relatives. http://www.messagetoeagle.com/mutants.php#.UATHa2-e7SU

Power Grid Vulnerable

WASHINGTON - After recent storms knocked out power for more than 3 million people in the middle of a record heat wave former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich decided to talk about Americas vulnerable power grid. In an opinion piece posted on The Washington Post Gingrich writes: "Without power, the comforts of home become worthless. You sit in the sweltering heat, realizing you are living in a box that, without electricity, is a trap. You pray for the "juice" to return before your groceries go bad. You either make do in the heat or find refuge with friends who have electricity." Newt claims that the power grid is created in such a ways that doomsday-level damage could be caused if the United States were to be hit with an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) strike or even a major solar storm. The former speaker is worried that a nuclear weapon detonated over the atmosphere of the continental United States could cause an EMP that would knock power out for months, perhaps even years. Gingrich also points to the Carrington Event of 1859, a solar storm that since that time has caused geomagnetic disturbances every 75 years. While we make think the possibility of a solar storm causing major issues is not possible in 1989 a space storm knocked out power to millions of people in Quebec for several hours. "Suppose that, rather than being a temporary disruption in our lives, the power outage lasted weeks or months, or even years. Consider what state all of us, from the richest to the poorest, would be in if we were still literally in the dark. Millions could be trapped in houses or apartments that were never designed for this climate without air conditioning. No cool air; months with no food shipments and every pharmacy shut down — no refills for life-sustaining medications." Consider making preparations just in case.

Sightings in the United States

Arkansas Triangle

Camden I saw lights just over the tree tops flashing different colors that caught my attention at 7:45 pm. A black triangle craft was moving slowly at about two miles per hour in a straight line path headed south about 200 feet altitude on September 19, 2011. The UFO had numerous little red, green, and blue colored lights and two rectangular yellowish pulsating light panels to bright white pulsations.

I could see the craft in great detail has it crossed over Highway 167 on a diagonal between the newly built Sheriffs complex and a business called Steel Deals.

I was the only one stopped and rolled the window down and heard no sound... I was awe stricken as I watched it float silently and pass directly overhead lit up like a Christmas tree. I could see the roundness of each little colored light which were grouped in sections all along the underbelly of the Triangle UFO. 

The panels went from steady bright/dim pulses to getting real bright; like it was powering up. It then took off at breakneck speed headed south, where it was seen by another witness 15 miles from where I saw it in a community called Frenchport, AR.

California Orbs

Oakland -- The witness saw five to six red balls of light floating around the sky at 8:30 PM for half an hour on

July 8, 2012.

The lights would then abruptly shoot up and disappear.

Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

HOLLYWOOD -- You folks need to watch Pt 2 of the original video taken on July 8, 2012. How do you suppose the "lanterns" are unaffected by the draft of the helicopter's rotors? Whatever the objects are, they are maintaining their own position and are stronger than the helicopter. This is most noticeable when the chopper moves to within a few yards of the orb and it doesn't move. Also must mention the fact that an experienced police pilot is taking a tremendous interest in this object. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAKzpakhIms&feature=youtu.beOpen your eyes people....

Colorado Disc

Colorado Springs --There have been way too many "sightings" in and around Colorado Springs for this to be missed by the news. This disc sighting was published on June 28, 2012 by Ko3k10 News 13TV.

If you look behind the helicopter on the far right you'll see a disc shaped object following the fire fighting helicopter. It is NOT another helicopter (size) and is NOT an airplane (speed).

Delaware Triangle

LEWES -- I was going fishing at the pier in Cape Henlopen State Park on the night of June 28, 2012, at a little after 10 PM. Also present was my father, brother, and two nephews and other people who were on the pier. As we walked out on the pier a triangular shaped object appeared that seemed black with lights at each corner. The lights had a red-orange flicker as the object flew silently and slowly 200 feet overhead. It rotated slowly climbing steadily and then flew over the Atlantic Ocean. It was being followed by three other objects with a single light the same color as the triangles. I took a cell phone picture and video of the triangle. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. Thanks to MUFON CMS and Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldufophotos.org

Florida Orbs

St. Augustine Beach -- My son and I were driving over the bridge to the beach when we noticed a rainbow. It was very odd because there was only one small cloud. I snapped pictures and noticed two objects that appeared to be flying in tandem. I cleaned the lens and all three photos showed the two bright discs of light flying closer to the cloud in each photo. They flew straight, then appeared to arc up over the cloud. Both left a distinct trail. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Georgia Lights

ROME On July 10, 2012, the flying object looked like car head lights.

I enlarged the picture and you can see one light.

Indiana UFOs

BLANFORD Richard Bondira has been photographing UFOs on clear nights since January 2012.

He sent me dozens of photographs of UFO that he has filmed over the last six months. As many as ten or more UFOs can be seen on some nights. They mostly hover but can be seen maneuvering, spin around, or go straight up. They usually come from the southeast heading northwest. They stretch across the night sky from east to west. Thanks to Richard Bondira

Maine Encounter

CHINA -- In September of 2000 my cousin and I were sitting in my car which was parked with all power off watching the flashing lights of planes move along the eastern horizon. One was by itself and approached much closer moving at about 25 miles per hour with a bright fixed headlight like a searchlight. It made no sound, had no blinking indicator lights and had no visible outline even as it approached.

When the object was directly in front at no more than 200 feet, I flashed my headlights and the object which had no visible lights except the spotlight suddenly illuminated us with a staggered row of colored lights. After five seconds the lights completely turned off and the object which was hovering changed course and moved slowly and silently away.

Additionally my friend who had stayed in a cabin on the opposite side of the hill years before had been awakened one night by lights outside the cabin with tremendous shaking of the structure. He who was a brave and courageous individual whom I never saw afraid said he was mortally terrified as he hid in a ball from the object and event taking place. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Massachusetts Cylinder

BOSTON --I was filming a documentary in Boston on July 17, 2012, and I shot a church, when reviewing the footage later I noticed a quick flying object at top left shooting past the screen at 0:03. Very strange and it does not seem to be a camera error.

Michigan Dozen Lights

WATERFORD On June 26, 2012, at 10:50 PM, I and my fianc walked outside to his car before he left for work. We noticed strange lights in the southeast sky. They were formed in a triangle, and moving slowly in formation to the east.

The red lights were pulsating and flickering and only visible for a few minutes. My fianc snapped a quick picture, and the lights disappeared one after another. Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldufophotos.org

Lake Leelanau -- On July 3, 2012, I was on my boat preparing to watch the fireworks display at 10:45 PM. I am a 47-year-old Navy veteran and private pilot that observed an orangish-red glow moving from left to right from my position along the 45th parallel, travelling north. The object was below the clouds at 5, 000 feet AGL and moved silently. The orangish-red orb was followed by 14 objects that followed the exact same flight path as the previous one.

I observed two of the objects go black, but I could see their outline and thought they looked like a quarter. I have seen many craft from both ships at sea, on vantages at land and from aircraft that I myself have piloted. No strobes, navigation lights or noise were present. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Minnesota Lights

I had been taking pictures of storm clouds, on July 4, 2012.

I did not see anything until I downloaded these pictures on my computer.

Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Missouri Sightings

Kansas City Margie Kay reports we had quite a few UFO sightings on July 4, 2012, including my own sighting with 16 other witnesses. I filmed this and am putting it up on You Tube this weekend. We thought it was just a red pulsing light at first but the video shows a larger object with multiple lights --- just goes to show that you can't trust the naked eye. http://www.facebook.com/groups/131384760265948/permalink/356

Union -- The witness, who was an Assistant Fire Chief at the time, was prompted to contact MUFON after seeing a TV program on the Illinois sightings in they hear 2000. He stated that he was returning from a house fire in St. Clair, Missouri at 3:00 AM and was on I-44 Highway approaching Union when he heard law enforcement on the county police band radio discussing an unidentified object. The dispatcher said "Oh its this Roswell stuff again." and that police were chasing the object. 

As the witness approached Highways 50 and 47, he saw a large triangular craft traveling at 25 MPH, about 500 feet altitude. The witness said that very bright lights on the triangle pointed down, but did not light up the ground, seeming to stop 100 feet up.
The witness joined up with a Union officer and a County officer, and the three of them followed the object in their separate cars for an hour as the object headed towards Washington, Missouri, north of the original position. The object was always in front or above them. At one point, the county officer attempted to tilt his dash cam up to get pictures, but it would not raise high enough.

The object stopped and hovered several times and moved very slowly. They were unable to use the radio for communication while the craft was above them. After an hour, the officers needed to turn back to get back to other calls, so this witness left as well. By this time, the object had moved into an area SE of Washington, MO over farmland where there were no roads, and it was impossible to follow. The witness surmises that the object from Illinois continued into Missouri and officers picked up its trail after it crossed the state line. Filed by Assistant State Director for the witness, who wishes to remain anonymous: Thanks to MUFON CMS.

New Jersey Light, Alien Abduction and Triangle

EAST BRUNSWICK Kevin Hodapp sent a video of the night sky with flashes of light probably caused by lighting in the distance. A fairly bright light moves from right to left that does not flash strobe lights or navigation lights like a normal aircraft. Thanks to Kevin Hodapp

Abducted

ATLANTIC COUNTY -- First, I never remember seeing a UFO. I didn't even know I was being abducted until July 6, 2012, when I read some reviews of the book "Taken" and some red flags went up for me. My abductions usually begin at night but it has happened during the day. I am in bed and feel a presence in the room and feel like a heavy weight is on me. I can't move my body but can move my eyes and control my breathing. Then I fall asleep or at times it seems like nothing happened. I only remember bits and pieces like a dream things like being in water but I can breathe. One afternoon, I remember lying face down and hearing someone say, "The device resides at the base of the spine". I felt little tingled at the small of my back, no pain.

On another night years later, a presence came into my room and said "You have no idea whats in store for you tonight" then it left. During the night I awoke to the worst pain on the left side of my face. The worst part about this is I know when this is going to happen before they come. But when I get in bed I dont care and it's ok to be taken. I know I do not want this to happen and I feel like a prisoner and know there is nothing I can do, and I must go. They have taken me since the 6th grade, I'm 30 now. Being a psychic I thought it was a spirit or demon messing with me. I always felt I could handle whatever came my way. As a very small child I would follow "clear people" around the house. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. This case is under investigation by Ken Pfeifer and Jack Nicholias of MUFON New Jersey. Thanks to MUFON CMS

ATLANTIC CITY I saw a triangle on July 14, 2012, with perimeter lights sitting in Bader Field moving slowly south about 10 PM. It was moving very slow and stopped behind a translucent cloud and the lights went out and I couldnt see it anymore.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

New York Orb

ALBANY On July 15, 2012, I saw a large reddish orange object that I perceived to be burning or glowing. It was headed north towards Albany flying faster than an average plane at low altitude. It made no noise and disappeared out of sight. I have video over a minute long. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Oklahoma Triangle

Owasso -- The witness was "star gazing" July 4, 2012, at 11:30 PM, when he noticed five very bright and large orange lights moving northeast in a triangular (wedge) formation. The object emitted no sound and the witnesss brother also saw the object. The witness was convinced that the object was not a conventional aircraft. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Oregon Orb

LACONNER -- Sitting in living room I saw an orange colored orb behind the trees headed north about two miles out on July 16, 2012. It did not look like a normal aircraft since Im by a Navy Air Base. I ran in and got my camera and the object was hovering in the same position, and then started moving towards the east, I got one picture. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas UFO Hovers Over Harbor Bridge

Corpus Christi I was at work on July 4, 2012 at 10:30 AM, on a cloudy morning and first noticed what I thought was a plane hovering low over the harbor bridge. I then realized it was a black star shaped craft in a slow circular path hovering over our bridge. After 20 minutes, it zoomed quickly sideways and upward simply vanishing. When it did that we were able to see it was a star shape almost like a sheriffs badge. It was so huge and frightening. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Milano -- Richard West reports at 05:20 AM Saturday, 14 July, 2012, I was riding in the front seat as a passenger coming back from a gig in Brazoria, Texas. We were traveling west on State Highway 36 just out of Milano. Steve, the driver, and I saw though we saw lights on a tower but as we got closer, we realized the lights were shaped like a pentagon suspended over the road. The center of the underside of the object had the brightest light of five. The five other lights were located close to the end of each corner of the underside of the pentagon-shaped object. All the lights were white and pulsated about once a second. We could see that the dull black object had shape and a surface with seams or vents. It hovered over the road silently about 30 feet in altitude as we passed underneath going 60 mph. The object was 20 to 30 feet across. We saw it fade in the rear view mirror as we drove farther away. Thanks to Richard West

Worldwide Sightings

Australia Lights

Sydney I had a truly mind blowing experience while on vacation in Australia on January 9, 2012, at 11:30 PM. I am a UK resident that arrived at Erskineville Station to meet with a friend. As I approached the station I noticed a light in the sky that acted strangely. It flew in formation at high speed from behind a tall building; shrinking and growing in size above Erskineville. The object changed from a small triangle to a much larger one. I was in shock and fright! Thanks to MUFON CMS

PERTH Journalist Pip Moir posted a photo on July 2, 2012, that she took at Cottesloe Beach to Twitter shortly after 6 pm, as puzzled onlookers debated what caused the colorful phenomena.
Fire in the sky is thought to be a burning meteor trail that lit up the Australian sky for twenty minutes. Debris penetrating the atmosphere plunged into the Indian Ocean.

Canada Light and Cigar

PETERBOROUGH -- We saw three or more anomalies on July 10, 2012. They came in on the angle of a plane but we realized it was not blinking like a plane. It flew straight up into the sky and veered off to the northwest before it disappeared. Five minutes later a big orange oblong object climbed south. It was the size of a hot dog bun held at arms length. Five minutes later a moon like object came out of the water rising slowly at 12:45 AM. It changed to a bright orangish red too. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Niagara Falls -- Just before turning in on July 1, 2012, I went outside to look around as I will often do. I spotted a small pinkish light heading my way from the northwest flying straight about 150 mph? It looked to be only a few hundred feet above my house as it passed over. The light was brighter pink by now and appeared to pulsate slightly almost like it was a burning ball. I think I could see a missile or cigar shape with no wings or rotors visible. The light on the underside more or less obscured the actual craft. I strained to hear any sound and I may have heard a very faint hissing sound as it passed over. It continued southeast and eventually disappeared in the night sky. I've never see anything like this. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Mexic Alleged UFO Photographed Before Sandstorm

UFO preceds sandstorm

CIUDAD JUAREZ Residents claim having photographed an UFO minutes before last Fridays sandstorm, whose winds approached 90 kilometers an hour and created widespread chaos throughout the region.

Through Facebook, a photograph shot by Raquel Vargas was shared by Juan Carlos Len, showing a sort of ring suspended in the sky with at least a dozen lights.

The image was taken in Calzada del Rio, to the north of the city. "I was running an errand at a neighboring development and we heard something like a lightning bolt, but when we turned around, we saw that thing in the sky," she said.

The phenomenon was seen by several local residents. "When we left our home, in a matter of minutes, it was still in the sky and I managed to take a picture of it. Others did as well."

"There was a lot of wind and flying dirt after that, and we went away because the storm had already started," she noted.

Last Friday, the wind gusts recorded achieved speeds of up to 85 kilometers per hour, prompting a mobilization by various rescue forces. (Translation (c) 2012, Scott Corrales, Institute of Hispanic Ufology. Special thanks to Guillermo Gimenez, Planeta UFO) www.ojinagahoy.com.mx

United Kingdom England Sighting

LIVERPOOL -- On July 10, 2012, four bright footballs were seen in the sky. Two were flying close to each other with an airplane flying just in front of the two flying in formation. It was scary. Ten minutes later a helicopter was in the sky, God bless and good luck to the human race. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Earlestown -- I have filmed several UFOs lately. I reviewed an excellent film I made on 12 December 2011.

At 6-30 pm, I had just dressed and noticed an orange light flashing at 300 feet altitude a mile to west over slack heaps flying at10 mph going north. Another orange light was in sky 1000 yardsgoing SW slowly. I filmed a ufo, and noticed a very bright ''star'' to NE 3-400 yards, alt.300 feet stationary and I filmed and it began to move west slowly. It appeared to cam-cord as large orange sphere and 5-600yds.it turned on sixpence and went N 5mph.and as it went over 70-80ft. trees in woods it had dropped to 100ft.alt.and a broad beam of light emanates down onto tree tops. A minute later an airliner came directly over going south at 1200 feet altitude. Though I did not see as I filmed on my film can be seen a shiny silver sphere between me and the other alien craft, low down over fields so maybe the airplane saw both. Thanks Robert Newton, near Liverpool, UK...

Moffat I first noticed the object opposite my house, a mile away maybe, which would be just to the north-west of the town in Dumfriesshire. It was 2 am, on July17, 2012, and I had gone for a walk before going to bed. The sky was clear so this object stood out as it was moving around erratically and was a flashing. There was a green light on the object and it looked as if a beam was reflecting off the sky around it. It cannot have been a plane, due to the abrupt movements it was making.

I took a photograph of it with a telephoto lens, and downloaded to my computer and magnified some more; it looked like a wide silver object with "windows" around the edge. After half an hour, it was still there but having had a busy day I was so tired I just had to go to bed! 

The last time I saw a UFO, was in 1979 near power lines. It was about 100 feet above me and about 200 feet in diameter. It completely lit the ground around me as if it were daylight. It was about 12:15 am and I lost about an hour of time. The last things I remember was seeing the object move slowly to my left for about 200 yards, and then accelerate forward so fast that it disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Aliens? We'll probably have a close encounter this century says leading physicist who warns governments to be ready

Interesting: It's a scientific prediction that will get dollar signs pinging in Steven Spielberg's eyes: We could make contact with aliens in less than 100 years

It’s a scientific prediction that will get dollar signs pinging in Steven Spielberg’s eyes: We could make contact with aliens in less than 100 years.

But according to one of our leading physicists, it is a matter for governments – rather than Hollywood – who should start preparing for our first extra-terrestrial encounter now.

Speaking at the Euroscience Open Forum conference in Dublin, Jocelyn Bell Burnell said: ‘I do suspect we are going to get signs of life elsewhere, maybe even intelligent life, within the next century.

How well prepared are we? Have we thought of how we approach them? Should we put them in a zoo, eat them, send in GIs to bring them democracy?’

She said we are most likely to find alien life where we find rocky planets with carbon dioxide and ozone in the atmospheres. The Oxford University professor said: ‘If we do suspect there is intelligent life out there, are we going to make ourselves known to them or not?

‘There are interesting questions about who you would tell first – the Press, the Prime Minister, the Pope? We should start thinking now.’

However, she said that even if we do find signs of alien life, it is likely to take decades to talk to them from Earth via radio or lasers.

Professor Bell Burnell said: ‘Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. So you are probably talking of conversations that could take 50 or 100 years, just one way.’

Previous research has found almost half of Britons believe in little green men.

The poll of more than 2,000 men and women for the Royal Society found that 44 per cent are of the opinion extra-terrestrial life exists and more than a third of those questioned said we should be actively searching and trying to make contact with ET.

Worrying: Stephen Hawking has warned that aliens may plunder Earth for its resources

Scientists are divided about whether we should be advertising our presence to inhabitants of other planets.

Some say that if we alert hostile aliens to our existence we risk an invasion that could lead to the end of life on Earth.

They argue that if ET has the technology to cross space to reach us any defences we have will be all but useless.

And Stephen Hawking has warned that aliens may plunder Earth for its resources.

Advocating that we do everything we can to avoid contact, he said: ‘We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn’t want to meet.

‘If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans.’

In special reports, this weeks files cover: Castro Saw Alien Craft and Bodies, "Alien language" presented by CIA and Disney, Mars Mickey Mouse, C-130 Crash, Electrical Equipments Stops Working near Baltic Sea UFO and Sightings Increase.

The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Special Reports

Lets face it, most of us dont know for sure what is going on, but don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice and most important, have the courage to follow your heart and instincts

Castro Saw Alien Craft and Bodies

Jorge Martin, Puerto Rican ufologist reports that on March 29, 2012, former President of Cuba, Fidel Castro issued historical document of Reflections, entitled "The need to Enrich our Knowledge." The letter discussed several issues related to the dangers for the survival of humankind posed by the current warmongering race that some of the world powers are enforcing; and how the bearers of these actions tend to suffer from characters that lack culture and special knowledge. Interjected is the possibility of extraterrestrial life in the universe around us.

Castro stated, "When Pope John Paul II visited Cuba in 1998, I sat down to dinner with a spokesman of the Pope. I said, "I think there is a 99.9 percent chance there is intelligent life on other planets'. A European article reads, "There could be thousands of millions of planets not much larger than Earth orbiting stars in our galaxy. "Our new observations show that about 40% of the 160.000 million red dwarf stars have a 'super-Earth" orbiting in their living zone, and there may be liquid water on the surface of the planet. "

Jorge Martin, states, "In 2002, the renowned Cuban filmmaker Octavio Cortzar visited Puerto Rico and asked to meet with us at our magazine ENIGMAS Goals.

He gave me a copy of the first documentary ever made in Cuba entitled "UFOs in Cuba." Octavio Cortzar further stated since President Fidel Castro opened the door with his letter about extraterrestrial life, he would reveal more of Castros statements.

John Paul II told Castro in 1998, "The probability of life beyond Earth was a fact and discussed the observations of UFOs!"

Castro saw the reality of extraterrestrial life visiting us, when he visited the Soviet Union. Perhaps, as a result we would deviate from the path of self destruction in which we currently are on.

Fidel Castro also gave Juan Mari Bras, a pro-Puerto Rico Independence leader information about the UFO matter? What did Castro say to Attorney Juan Mari Bras, I asked Mrs. Trabal? Well-she-said, "On one occasion we were talking about the UFO subject. Fidel Castro told us, before the fall of the Soviet Union, he had traveled to the USSR and the Soviet Authorities had taken him to a military base in which there was a special laboratory, and had showed him an alien spaceship, a disk they had captured. He also saw the body of a tall extraterrestrial being they kept preserved in a special box-like machine or cryogenic freezer."

  Above: Photographic simulation of Fidel Castro's visit to the Soviet secret

Lab in which he was shown both the alien craft and the corpse of its pilot.

Juan Mari Bras had not spoken about this before because Castro had told him confidence. Juan is a person of great integrity, and would not say something like this if it not was true. Castro also told us, "The Soviets to him they knew Americans had a similar lab and research center with crafts and alien bodies."

It is likely Castro was taken to the Plesetsk Cosmodrome where the Soyuz Rocket Cosmos=3M, and Tsykon are launched and is under persistent surveillance by alien crafts. This photo was taken by security officer Ghenady Korniev Vassili Zaitsev on January 5, 1992, at the Plesetsk missile center.

The other possible missile center where the alien craft could be stored is the base of Kapushtin Yar, in Astrakhan, Volgograd. Here there are several large hangars and an underground facility with several floors, in which Russian scientists could study alien technology of captured and crashed alien spacecrafts...

Under these lines we are showing a sketch with data on some of the extraterrestrial spacecrafts that the Russian Government keeps at this research center, made by a confidential Russian source, which was delivered to Italian journalist and UFO researcher Constantino Paglialunga in 1997.

It is very possible that Fidel Castro saw the alien spaceship and the alien corpse at Kapustin Yar.

"Alien language" presented by CIA and Disney

Robbie Graham a doctoral candidate at the University of Bristol for a PhD writes, "One of the most eyebrow-raising cases of government involvement in a Hollywood UFO movie in recent years is that of Race to Witch Mountain (2009), which apparently received extensive support from the CIA albeit in an off the books capacity despite its plot drawing extensively from UFO mythology (with references both to Area 51 and Roswell) and its presentation of a sinister government UFO cover-up."

In 2010, the film's director, Andy Fickman a self-described "UFO enthusiast" born and raised in Roswell, New Mexico told me that, although he personally shaped the majority of the films UFO-related content, at least some of it was the result of CIA input." The director claims that, in a highly unusual production arrangement, he and his crew were closely assisted by an active employee of the CIA whose advice extended to designing the alien writing seen in the flying saucer during the films climactic scenes.

Despite my best efforts, Fickman has been unwilling to reveal to me the identity of his CIA advisor, but claims hes a former Air Force Technical Intelligence Officer, that he had been "very active in Hollywood," and "had a lot of connections in the computer world.

Race to Witch Mountain: inside the flying saucer

All of the on-camera alien language in terms of their spaceship and everything that was all designed by him in the sense [of what] the mathematics of communication would be, so you know...there would be a similar mathematical equation that the government probably has if they were to ever come across an alien race. So a lot of the things we ended up using were things he was bringing to me...and the next thing you know, thats what I had on screen.

The alien "language" to which Fickman refers appears onscreen in Race to Witch Mountain in the form of holographic symbols aboard the Nordic aliens flying saucer. Here are three of the most frequently recurring symbols that appear in the climactic scenes of the movie...

The question, of course, is what do these symbols mean? Besides them bearing a passing resemblance to certain crop formations (the authenticity of which is debatable), it is difficult to ascribe any significance to them beyond the fact that they were designed by an alleged CIA operative.

Has the CIA, in cooperation with Disney, presented us with real alien symbols language? If so, to what conceivable end? These symbols were frequently used in antiquity. More information on CIA involvement in Race to Witch Mountain can be found in the article UFOs and Disney: Behind the Magic Kingdom.

Disney has overseen the production and/or distribution of numerous UFO and alien-themed movies in recent times, with the best known examples including Flight of the Navigator (1986) Signs (2002), Lilo and Stitch (2002), Chicken Little (2005), Lifted(2007), I am Number Four (2011), Mars Needs Moms (2011) and the forthcoming John Carter (2012)

The Disney/UFO connection can be traced back to 1953 when the CIA-sponsored Robertson Panel recommended that the US government make efforts to strip UFOs of their "aura of mystery" through the exploitation of mass media. In this context, the panel highlighted Walt Disney Productions specifically as a potential conduit for its propaganda. The panels singling-out of Disney made sense given the animation giants then firmly established working relationship with the US government: during World War II Disney made numerous propaganda shorts for the US military, and in the 1950s corporate and government sponsors helped the company produce films promoting President Eisenhower's "Atoms for Peace" policy.

Oscar-winning Disney animator Ward Kimball Best known for creating iconic Disney characters such as Jiminy Cricket and The Mad Hatter, Kimball also worked as Directing Animator on Disney classics including Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1938) and Pinocchio (1940).

While at a MUFON symposium in 1979, Kimball claimed that the United States Air Force (USAF) had approached Walt Disney himself in the mid-1950s to request his cooperation on a documentary about UFOs that would help acclimate the American public to the reality of extraterrestrials According to Kimball, in exchange for Disneys cooperation, the USAF offered to furnish the production with genuine UFO footage Kimball claimed that Disney accepted the deal and ever faithful to Uncle Sam began work immediately on the USAF project It wasnt long, however, before the USAF reneged on its offer of UFO footage When Kimball challenged the USAF Colonel overseeing the project he was told that "there was indeed plenty of UFO footage, but that neither Kimball, nor anyone else was going to get access to it." A Disney UFO video was actually produced and shown in the South.

The Kimball case, though, seems to be at odds with the Robertson Panels recommendations, which were to debunk UFO reality through media channels, not promoting it but perhaps another faction within the military-intelligence community one with a UFO acclimation agenda had similarly recognized Disneys propagandist potential?

Lockheed's Skunk Works Confirms It's Their Bird

Plant 42 at Lockheed Martin Skunk Works

There's this website called Open Source Geoint and it has published a satellite image of one of the most secret defense plants in the country, the Air Force's Plant 42, where a handful of the top defense companies build some of the country's most highly classified aircraft and sensors.

Plant 42 houses highly classified facilities where a number of contractors, including, most famously,  Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works, where the U-2 spy plane and the F-117 were built.

Dave Majundar who writes Flight Global's the Dew Line, speculates that this aircraft "looks a lot like a RQ-170, but bigger..."He postulates that it may be a P.420, a larger plane than the so-called Beast of Kandahar," It was able to provide important help to the team that killed Osama Bin Laden.

The company states, "Lockheed Martin Skunk Works often experiments with different shapes and materials for both manned and unmanned vehicles What you see in the satellite image is one of those projects." Thanks to AOL Defense newsletter

C-130 Crash

Four members of the North Carolina Air National Guard's 145th Airlift Wing in Charlotte died when their Modular Airborne Firefighting System-equipped C-130 crashed on July 1 while fighting a woodland fire in southwestern South Dakota. Two other crewmembers were injured in the crash and hospitalized, after a one-day stand down on July 2, the Air Force's small fleet of firefighting C-130s resumed flight operations to help battle wildfires. As of early morning on July 4, these airplanes, which began operating on June 25, had conducted a total of 105 airdrops and discharged more than 270,000 gallons of fire retardant on the flames in parts of Colorado, Montana, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

Electrical Equipments Stops Working Near Baltic Sea UFO

The OceanX team exploring a UFO-shaped object at the bottom of the Baltic Sea has claimed that their electrical equipments stop working when they approach within 200 meters. Professional diver Stefan Hogerborn, who is part of the Ocean X team which is exploring the anomaly, said some of the teams cameras and the teams satellite phone would refuse to work when directly above the object, and would only work once they had sailed away.

"Anything electric out there - and the satellite phone as well - stopped working when we were above the object," the Daily Mail quoted him as saying. "And then we got away about 200 meters and it turned on again, and when we got back over the object it didnt work," he said. Diver Peter Lindberg admitted,
"We have experienced things that I really couldnt imagine and I have been the team's biggest skeptic regarding these different kind of theories, I was kind of prepared just to find a cliff or outcrop or pile of mud but it was nothing like that, so for me it has been a missing experience I must say," he said

"I am one hundred percent convinced and confident that we have found something in May of last year that is very, very, very unique," member Dennis Asberg said.

There are perfectly straight lines and angles embedded into the smooth structure and a diver is photographed at lower right.

The lines can be made by natural causes, but they look very man made.The grooves are about 1-1.5 meter wide and 0.5-1.5 meters deep. The disc has a completely circular plate-like exterior, 180 meters in circumference. Object is 200 foot across mushroom shaped comprising a thick pillar rising eight meters out of the seabed with a four meter thick dome on top rising a total of 12 meters (approx 40 feet) high above the surrounding seabed

There are visible formations on top of the object, which are set at a 90 degree angle and look like passageways or walls, as well as something that looks like it could be a staircase. There are visible formations on top of the object, which are set at a 90 degree angle and look like passageways or walls, as well as something that looks like it could be a staircase.

There are stone circles, like "fireplaces" of hard black "almost petrified" burnt looking stone each a few inches in diameter, like 4 or 5 pearls in a necklace in various arrangements on top of the dome. It might be a meteorite, or the base from a U-boat, - or a UFO?

"The Ocean X team did get some pictures, such as these soot-covered rocks that encircled an egg-shaped hole which went into the object at its centre, and have no idea what any of it means. There is a long 985-foot runway, skid marks, or a downhill path that is flattened at the seabed with the object at the end of it.

A SECOND Anomaly saw found.....

The second anomaly

Some 200 meters away is yet to be explored! The initial side scan sonar images show something shaped like a "gothic church window." It is similar to the larger object and also has a disturbed seafloor area leading up to it, or what could be a ridge. The divers were so amazed by the main anomaly that they simply didnt have time to dive on the second one. The return trip in two weeks time should present an opportunity for this to finally be explored. The sonar picture of the unidentified object resembles the famed Star Wars ship the Millennium Falcon. They have no way of telling what is inside the object whether it is filled with gold and riches or simply aged sediment particles.

Sylmar On July 8, 2012, we were sitting outside when my sister looked up and saw a rotating object in the sky that seemed to be falling. She said "Look, is that a plane falling?" I became a bit nervous as it seemed to be falling. I ran inside to get my husband who came out with his camera and we saw a second similar object. The first one began to go higher towards the mountains. The second object followed the same pattern like the first one, stopping, rotating, and then ascending in the same direction. A third object much longer looking zoomed in the same direction as the first object. It was too fast to be captured on camera. After 15 to 20 minutes, the two objects came closer to each other. The objects just disappeared.

Colorado Bluish-White Lights

Sylmar -- I took this on the night of June 30, 2012 hovering just west of the Central Colorado Rockies. It resembled two hovering field lights in a row Sylmar and Santa Clarita over Interstate 5 in the New Hall Pass.

The bright white is a star is Spica, but I do not know what the dots are nor the blue object that morphs into different shapes, Thanks for your updates one of the best out there!

COLORADO SPRINGS -- I just opened your last file and wondered if you saw/heard of this sighting.

This was sent to me by John McGinnis who is re-opening his Tesla museum close to where Tesla has his lab in 1899. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=jJXAjYlE4iI

Kind regards, Curtis

Georgia Light

Valdosta On July 7, 2012, I was outside taking still shots of a rainbow with my Cyber shot camera. I never noticed the object with the naked eye, but saw it when I uploaded to my computer. The object was just in one frame of the shots that I took.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Acworth -- My Mom and daughter reported seeing three objects moving at a slow pace a UFO on July 4, 2012.

The objects appeared to shoot up in the sky and took a photo before it disappeared.

Note: It is difficult to tell from the photo what are unknowns. The largest light could be a street light or a reflection. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Indiana Three Lights

Portage On July 4, 2012, at 10:30 PM, in the first video I was just pulling over and I dont know if my camera was focused correctly. The first two pictures were a little blurry. In the rest of the videos the objects are a white. In the video they were fiery pulsating and amber balls plus they looked a little bigger heading northwest. The video was on the Fox News, Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Iowa Lights

WATERLOO -- My husband and I went outside after 9 pm, on July 3, 2012, when I heard him say, "Something above us looks odd." I looked up and right overhead was a silently flying vehicle heading northwest. It had four perfectly spaced lights that were larger than those of higher flying planes. The lights were perfectly spaced apart and flashing slowly. This "square object" was about the size of a quarter while planes were the size of a small felt-tipped marker. The strange craft had lights the size of pencil eraser heads and definitely larger and not as bright or strobe- We live a few miles from a small engine aircraft airport. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Massachusetts Orange Fireballs Over Cape Cod Bay

Yarmouthport -- One bright orange sphere was seen over Cape Cod Bay on July 2, 2012, moving south up Wharf Lane heading towards Lewis Bay at a fast steady speed. Two bright orange spheres rose above Sandy Neck about 15 minutes apart. Each sphere rose into the air above Cape Cod Bay, and lasted less than a minute, and then went out. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Michigan Sun Dog

Howell -- Doug Parrish writes, "The sighting along I-94 near Kalamazoo is suspect, the "second sun" to the left of the real sun is most likely situated at 22.5 that is normally called a "sun dog," i.e. a refraction of the sunlight through a high-level of ice crystals in the upper atmosphere. In perfect viewing conditions, there would also be one on the right at the same degree of separation. I see them often in my part of SE Lower Michigan. They are a natural occurrence.

Thanks Doug Parrish

Missouri Lights

INDEPENDENCE -- We were celebrating with fireworks when my 10 year old Aaron said, "Whats that?" I saw what I now have to say was a UFO. We saw two of the exact same objects flying in formation at a steady speed. By the time I got my video camera it was traveling away from us. I got some pretty good video of them with me zooming in and out and trying to keep them both in picture. They stayed in formation as they traveled east out of sight I live about a mile from the old airport. Strangest unexplainable thing we have ever seen.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

ST. LOUIS -- I have attached a couple of my over 1,000 pictures of what started my fascination with this phenomenon that I never believed in until last October.

Montana Mutilated Cow

Polson -- A strangely mutilated cow found dead southwest of Polson has launched an investigation by the Lake County Sheriffs Department on June 27, 2012. Deputies were notified of the killing Saturday, but from the level of decomposition, the adult cow was likely killed Wednesday, said Dan Yonkin, Lake County undersheriff.

What is being described as a non-natural death occurred in the Valley View area, which is an area that is home to many cattle ranches in Lake County? Some of the meat from the animal had been cut off and some of the organs removed. A local veterinarian responded to the ranch to perform a necropsy on the animal, and samples collected from the necropsy were sent to a Colorado lab for further investigation.

Yonkin said, "Its an odd thing, and we initially suspected animal predation, but weve ruled that out and it appears it is human caused." The cow was among a herd when the unusual killing took place.

Yonkin said, the Sheriffs Department is methodically going through the details of the incident and will continue to investigate until the answers to the mystery are found.

"Our concern is we dont want to see more of these," Yonkin said, "I wouldnt want ranchers to be concerned every night when they go to bed that when they wake up their cows will have been killed in their pasture."

Anyone with information about the cow death is encouraged to contact Crime stoppers at (406) 883-7309Ranchers experiencing any similar situations should contact the sheriffs office.

Note: Anyone with information about this mutilation is urged to send a comment. A few weeks ago a rancher in the Polson area reported to me that someone had killed one of his cows and had mutilated it. It is rare for authorities to investigation cattle mutilations.

New Jersey Flying Object

BRIGATINE -- On June 16, 2012, at 9:45 pm, while sitting on a balcony at the Jersey shore I observed coming from the north what I thought was a plane. Soon I realized that what I saw was quickly changing directions, and moving faster than a plane. I observed the object going to the northeast near the Big Dipper Constellation. I watched for 55 seconds, and know my eyes were not playing tricks on me. I stared at this thing move out into space and get smaller. Others must have seen it. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Cherry Hill -- My daughter and I witnessed a stationary daylight object in the sky on July 6, 2012, at 6:30 PM. I was driving on Route 38 past the Cherry Hill Mall when my daughter pointed out a hovering object. As we drove, it was periodically obscured by trees. My daughter thought it was rectangular, but I saw a dull gray triangle. It was difficult for me to keep my eyes on it since I was driving. When we stopped at a red light, a driver in the next lane had to slam on their brakes, which made me wonder if the driver was watching it too. When we turned around the jug handle on Route 38, the object was no longer in site. It was not a blimp, balloon, nor aircraft. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Princeton --While out shopping on July 10, 2012, I was observing the beautiful clouds in the sky. I snapped two photos with my cell phone camera: one at 3:04 pm and another at 3:06 PM both facing north. After downloading the photos to my computer, I noticed a strangely-shaped, dark object in front of one of the puffy white clouds on the first photo. The object is not on the second photo. I have no idea what the object was. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Oregon Lights

MEDFORD On July 6, 2012, I had my first UFO sighting while lying on my bed. Out my window I saw an orange orb moving slowly and silently. I got out my phone and to get a shot of the object. It was an orange orb about 200 feet away from my window.

Note: The orange orb appears to have four lights in the extracted still image. The object appears to be rotating in the video Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Washington Light

Seattle On July 4, 2012, during fireworks a very reddish orange light flew higher and higher then faded out as it headed south. It kept going and many people saw it near the fireworks and even in other states. It was nothing from this world.
At first I thought it was a firework that exploded, but then it flew higher and north fast for about three minutes until it faded and went out. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Worldwide Sightings

Canada Orb

Orillia, Ontario -- On July 1st, 2012, after watching the concert at Burls Creek Family Campground we set up overnight camp. It was about 11:45 PM, on July 1, 2012, when I witnessed three brilliant round orange UFOs. Two were much more distant moving south very slow. Then a third one came across much closer above moving east. Within five seconds, I immediately pulled out my camera to capture the moment on video mode. There was pulsation of brightness coming from this brilliant orange round swirling object. It had a fluid-like movement. It was really an extraordinary show in the sky for five minutes. The next morning I talked with a Parks Ground keeper and he also witnessed the three objects. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Chile Research

Region IV, Regional Research has devised a method to capture flying objects that the human eye cannot see, because they do not reflect the light. For many years there has been talk that the Elqui Valley is a prime location for the sighting of UFOs. There are dozens of stories and many mysterious pictures, not to mention the case of an alleged flying saucer that crashed into a Paihuano hill. There are also many more UFOs flying over the hills, that are invisible to the naked eye? This was discovered by regional researcher Patricio Diaz, who years ago noticed that the photos you took to elquinos landscapes, strange forms appeared after daylight, of which no one realized at the time.

Patricio Diaz thought quickly to take photos with two cameras; one a standard camera and an infrared camera. Infrared is a type of light you cannot see. Our eyes can only see what we call visible light. Infrared light gives us special information that we cannot get from visible light. It shows how much heat something has and gives information about the temperature of an object. Everything has some heat and radiates infrared light. Even those we think are very cool. Patricio Diaz says, "My profession is an electronic technician and I worked to change the camera, the software, shutter speed, and I use a polarizing filter." It was a long process and managed to save these objects," said Diaz. He was shooting in places like Pisco Elqui, El Molle, Vicua and Paihuano. "We achieved very interesting and good results. I used the second camera to have a comparison of what I was recording in infrared. If it appeared as a bird or an insect we can discern if the object is passing fast and blurred.

In contrast, the other objects were in the focal plane of the hill, shot 4 or 5 miles and the object looked sharp and movements that did were very interesting. They stopped in the air so it cannot be a meteorite. Diaz has spent 25 years devoted to UFO research and these strange aerial phenomena were captured in the Elqui Valley in broad daylight.

Case Paihuano was forever on the map of world ufology on October 7, 1998, when a dozen people witnessed the crash of a reddish fireball UFO against the Cerro Las Mollacas. The case is still under investigation and has been dubbed the "Chilean Roswell." Thanks to Institute of Hispanic Ufology for the photo and Patricio Diaz.

Denmark Light

Copenhagen -- I was sitting on my balcony on July 1, 2012, when I saw two red lights flying north faster than planes, side by side. They disappeared, and then two other lights passed in the sky. I tried to take pictures and shoot a video but they were blurred due to the speed of the moving objects. Two light couples passed by in few minutes. The last light couple disbanded: one going straight, the other vanishing. The speed was far faster than a plane; and there was no noise. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Germany Orb

BERLIN -- A friend and I were trying to make some photos from the Berlin television tower of a golden object. I saw an object at very high altitude on February 15, 2012, it moved slowly to the right and then to the left, but most of the time it seemed to be stationary. I zoomed in on this object and took some photos of it. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Pakistan Lights

Faisalabad On July 1, 2012, I saw flashing lights in the sky. We used to sleep on the roof and frequently saw flashing lights in the sky not caused by lightning. The flashing lights come up while the stars are in the sky. Ive seen over 500 lights and this happened daily. I was able to get friends to take photos of the lights.

The lights are high sharp lights which enlightened the whole surrounding area like daylight for 1 to 2 seconds. We have assumed some ufos are studying our family and taking snaps with their own cameras. Most of the people of the city have also seen these objects as well. We couldn't open our eyes because there was too much sparkling in our eyes. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Puerto Rico Thin Line

Camuy -- This morning on July 1, 2012, around 4:30 AM, I went to the kitchen and looked at a real big bright star that caught my attention. I went outside and saw this thin straight white line going northwest across the sky in a horizontal position. There was no sound at it passed by, so I kept looking at it until it disappeared. This straight white line was traveling without stopping or changing its shape. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

South Africa Fast Moving Light

Heidelberg -- I am a South African and was on my way to the coast for vacation on July 1, 2012, at 6:25 AM. I saw the light approaching a toll gate 80 km south of Heidelberg. My Dad said that it was a shooting star but it did not have the streak or tail you usually see and was unusually close to the ground. I have been to a lot of air shows so it was no jet.

UK England Disc

SOUTH HAMPSHIRE -- I am going to tell you now about a UK case that is the best of its kind anywhere in the world ever that occurred in August 2011. Everything has also been thoroughly examined by the editor of the Flying Saucer Review, Britains oldest UFO journal to which our Royal Family even subscribes and has done since it started the late 50's. I have tried to tell the media but they arent interested.

It's enough to make one think that smoking gun evidence about aliens and UFO's is somehow taboo. The witness was bathed in colored light as he filmed this object. There were two of these originally, until its companion flew off, leaving this one to put on its fabulous display..

All the photos have been enlarged for ease of viewing and are not objects close to the lens and have been professionally examined and are original images. I know the people involved who are senior in age, really nice, humble, simple folk and good family friends of me and my partner. They know little about computers but are definitely in contact with an alien race. There is no doubt about it. I would wager the entire contents of my home on it. They seek to remain anonymous and do not seek money.

The contacts have included numerous detailed UFO photo opportunities, a face-to-face meeting with Nordic-type aliens in a highly remote woodland clearing, and various abductions by small fawn-colored beings. These contactees have been keen ufologists, active in the field for more than 40 years, out sky watching several times a week in all weathers

One of the witnesses was abducted on Dragon Hill, Wiltshire and taken while holding his camera. Whilst on board he was allowed to obtain images of the alien beings, and other shots, and was returned together with his camera. The other witness even has shots of an unidentified planet, and many space shots showing nebula's, galaxies etc, that even one of the UK's top astronomers was left stunned and in his 21 years of studying the sky, he said had never come across anything like it. The images even rival those taken by the Hubble Space telescope.

I wrote to NASA of course about this. They refused to answer me. The downside to all of this is the witnesss burns and scars left from over exposure to the craft and their environments, together with what are believed to be medical experiments performed on them. The witness claims that he has also fathered children on board the alien craft which he is occasionally invited to go and see. Special thanks to Ken Parsons Researcher and Ufologist.

Nat Geo’s Chasing UFOs: Two of the Stars Say the Show was Hijacked

By Robert Hastings www.ufohastings.com 7-11-12

     “I know how disappointed all of you are. I am too. It’s not the show that was sold to both myself and scientist Ben…[It] does get a bit better further down the road but not a lot.” —James Fox

“James and I both had expectations and (for our own reasons) hopes of an ultimately serious product. We both saw the project heading in a different direction as time went on and were powerless to influence it.” —Dr. Ben McGee

My last article on this website, Nat Geo’s Chasing UFOs: Investigation as Farce, roundly criticized the format and content of the new reality series currently being aired on the National Geographic channel. Having meticulously investigated UFO activity at nuclear weapons sites for 39 years—utilizing declassified U.S. government documents and the testimony of more than 130 military veterans—I was appalled by the ridiculous thrashing around in the dark and superficial-to-non-existent analysis by the trio of “investigators” offered up in the program’s first three episodes.

I was/am concerned that public and scientific perceptions about the UFO phenomenon, and those who actually research it, will be very negatively impacted as a result of Chasing UFO’s pretend-investigation approach to the subject. God knows there already exists a pervasive perception, at least in some quarters, that there is no “there” there. Therefore, this crap was the last thing that I, or anyone who wishes to learn the facts about UFOs, needed to see on their TV screens.

Out of a sense of fair play, upon posting the article I emailed one of the show’s stars, filmmaker James Fox—whose previous two UFO documentaries I loved—and notified him that I had just publicly trashed him and his current project. To his credit, he took my very harsh but accurate criticism in stride and, in response, subsequently offered some mostly-apologetic commentary on UFO researcher, journalist, and best-selling author Leslie Kean’s Facebook site:


Shortly thereafter, a second member of the Chasing UFOs trio, Dr. Ben McGee, added his own input. Both comments appear below and, as of this moment, over 40 other individuals have been added their views to the very influential blog.

James Fox said: I know how disappointed all of you are. I am too. It's not the show that was sold to both myself and scientist Ben. Two months into it, we were off to a great start; good locations, solid witnesses and some opportunities for Ben to apply his field research as a geologist at some crash sites. Very exciting stuff. Unfortunately, when we actually got out in the field we began to realize that they were more interested in poking around a night than allocating the time necessary during the day as apparently (so we were told) Americans love watching others sneak around at night from the comfort of their couches. Ben and I reluctantly played along...and it wasn't always bad. We really set up field maps and surveillance at the Roswell crash site (with a slew of high tech gear) and ran out of daylight. As it was in the middle of nowhere we all decided to work through the night and did find something...there were other cases in the show where when witnesses claimed to see strange lights appear in certain areas and that too made some sense for us to go out at night...but for the most part it was gratuitous night time boloney. As far as the title, it was UFO Investigations until they switched it to Chasing UFOs after it was all shot and edited. So with a lack of control in the field and zero in post the show is what it is. Having said that, all my previous works are circulating Nat Geo headquarters and I've been influencing and establishing contacts in the mainstream (middle america mainstream) and will continue to do so and I will only return if I'm on as a producer all the way through to the end. Will it ever be I Know What I Saw or Leslie's great work...? No, but I'll do my best to make is a credible while entertaining as possible (as that's most important to Nat Geo). I promise I'll either quit or change my position within the show because at least I can make it all make some sense. The show does get a bit better further down the road but not a lot. Please bare with me a bit longer as I've jumped into the lions den to see what I could do from the inside. My credibility and reputation has, deservedly, taken a serious hit but know that I'm hoping to come out with an opportunity that otherwise wouldn't have presented itself. Fingers crossed. James

Ben McGee said: Greetings, all - James asked me to chime in as well. When we were brought onboard, the project certainly had a much harder inclination than its final realization, and as a career scientist I was excited that NatGeo was at the helm (unaware of their desire for a major shift in programming flavor). Our intentions were very sincere, and the project working title was even more serious than James remembers: Sightings Investigated. For my own part, while personally unconvinced of any extraterrestrial visitation, I had plans to provide insightful context that I thought viewers of all stripes would appreciate and find engaging - examples of spaceflight technology, astronomy, planetary science - helping anchor the show and explain why the scientific establishment supports the possibility of extraterrestrial life yet is unconvinced of extraterrestrial visitation either now or in the distant past. We filmed much of this content, but as you no doubt noticed, the great majority was ultimately not included. Apparently, such is television. James and I both had expectations and (for our own reasons) hopes of an ultimately serious product. We both saw the project heading in a different direction as time went on and were powerless to influence it. Injecting science into mainstream media is also problematic, and I am suffering heat in my own circles for the lack thereof on the show. I will personally vouch that James's motives were true, and if anyone is interested in the science that we did perform, I’m keeping a blog on the NatGeo website (linked below).

Cheers, Ben tvblogs.nationalgeographic.com/author/benmcgee

END OF POSTS

My own opinion, expressed in great detail in my first a article on this subject, is that the fix was in from the get-go and neither Fox, McGee nor Erin Ryder (the trio’s third member) had any real chance of influencing or altering the ridiculous outcome.

Indeed, the Nat Geo network’s track record on UFO “documenataries” speaks for itself. As I wrote in the other article, “Over the years I had told several people, only half-jokingly, that if the Nat Geo scripts were not actually written at CIA headquarters, the network was at least making the agency very happy by broadcasting its poorly researched, extremely biased, essentially propagandistic shows on the UFO subject.”

Those comments were specifically directed toward Nat Geo’s other new UFO program, The Truth Behind UFOs: Popped, a true-to-form debunking exercise—only the latest of many—which aired the night before the premier of Chasing UFOs. Given the absurd ambiance offered by latter, I suppose I can now add, “Not to mention making otherwise serious people who sincerely wish to investigate the phenomenon look like fools.”
