THE UFO WHY? QUESTIONS
THE UFO WHY? QUESTIONS 4th Annual UFO
Crash Retrieval Conference Las Vegas, NV November 10-12, 2006 by
Stanton T. Friedman
ABSTRACT
have been
fortunate enough to lecture (usually Flying Saucers ARE Real) over 700 times
in 18 countries. My audiences, mostly college and professional groups, seem to
have no problem accepting the detailed factual data that I present leading to my
conclusions that SOME UFOs are alien spacecraft and that the subject of flying
saucers represents a kind of Cosmic Watergate. But what seems to be of most
concern, judging by the Question and Answer sessions, are the WHY? questions.
Why would saucers crash? Why would aliens visit Earth? Why doesnt the
government tell us what it knows? Why would aliens not land on the White House
lawn or at the United Nations? Why would people fake MJ-12 documents? Why do you
say SETI stands for Silly Effort To Investigate? Why have you kept at it for 39
years? Why hasnt the government taken you out? Perhaps my answers will help the
reader answer his WHY? questions, or lead to more
such questions.
THE UFO WHY? QUESTIONS
1. WHY have you
concluded that the evidence is overwhelming that Earth is being visited by
intelligently controlled Extraterrestrial Spacecraft?
The simplest answer
is that it is the only conclusion merited by the enormous amount of evidence. In
my lectures I review 5 large scale scientific studies and ask after each one how
many have read it. Typically fewer than 2% have read any. I note the 5000-plus
physical trace cases that Ted Phillips has collected from over 70 countries. In
these people see a craft land and then take off leaving behind various markings
on the soil such as burn circles, landing gear marks, small footprints, dried
out rings of soil, etc. These are not crop circles where normally no saucer is
seen. About 1/6 of these cases involve reports of small beings. I refer to the
more than 1000 abduction cases that have been investigated by Budd Hopkins,
David Jacobs, John Mack, and Raymond Fowler and the Betty and Barney Hill case
as recorded by John G. Fuller. I review the outstanding work by Marjorie Fish
clearly indicating that Bettys star map makes sense and provides information
not previously known to us. Furthermore, I have spent time at 20 archives, had a
security clearance for 14 years, and find it perfectly obvious that crucial data
has been withheld and many government people have lied with regard to UFOs.
Saying some UFOs are of ET origin, of course, doesnt answer other questions
such as WHY are aliens coming here, WHY havent I seen one, where are they from,
etc., etc.
2. WHY dont the aliens, if they are real, just land on the
White House lawn and say Take me to your leader.?
Obviously I dont
speak for any aliens. However, let us note three facts:
A. The White House is in a
forbidden flying zone. Our response to intruders in such zones is to take
immediate action to escort the intruders away or shoot them down. As far back as
the summer of 1952 when, in July, UFOs did fly over the White House, orders were
given to military interceptors to shoot down UFOs if they dont land when
instructed to do so. This is described in detail in Frank Feschino Jr.s new
book Shoot Them Down. Major General Roger Ramey proclaimed that
interceptors had been scrambled hundreds of times without any luck. As an
indication of the zeal of pilots, I have heard of at least 7 specific cases in
which the UFOs zapped attacking earthling aircraft. Tim Good in his new book
Need to Know recounts similar cases. I am working on a claim by a pilot
that UFOs took out 20 of our planes in Europe in the early 1950s.
B. It
may come as a surprise to many Americans, but the President of the USA doesnt
speak for Planet Earth. After all who elected him World President? Certainly not
the billion people from India or the 1.3 billion people in China. Obviously the
UN also does not speak for Planet Earth, either.
C. Normally,
negotiations only take place between roughly equal parties. Surely it is not
difficult to see that aliens have technology far in advance of earthling
technology. Their vehicles are clearly faster, more maneuverable, and have
access to huge space carriers (mother ships) with lord-knows-what capability.
They have no reason to negotiate when they can already do what
they please.
3. WHY in the world would aliens want to come
here if, as you have claimed, we are a primitive society whose major activity is
clearly tribal warfare?
Answers to this question depend very much on
ones picture of the local galactic neighborhood and of the situation on our
planet. The SETI cultists seem to think we are the Crown of Creation and that
there may be as many as 50,000 civilizations in our Milky Way Galaxy, which
has a few hundred billion stars. It is almost 100,000 light years across which,
according to Frank Drake, means there may be another civilization only 1000
light years away. This would, of course, make us very special as one of the
elite civilizations. I think that there are probably many advanced civilizations
within our local neighborhood on planets around some of the 2300 stars within 54
light years, especially the 46 that are very similar to the sun. The driving
fact here is that we have only had fancy technology for perhaps 100 years. But
the earth is about 4.5 billion years old and has been suitable for life for well
over a billion years.
Just down the street, 39.4 light years away, we
find a pair of sun-like stars, Zeta 1 and Zeta 2 Reticuli. These are only an 1/8
of a light year apart from each other, but are a billion years older than the
sun. In other words, there has been a great deal of time for other civilizations
to establish themselves. Having an easily observable neighbor nearby would
provide
far more incentive for the
development of interstellar travel than we have out here in the boondocks. My
view is, per a fine analogy from physicist Beatriz Gabo Rivera, that we are like
the gorillas in a nature preserve in Africa who know nothing about what is going
on outside the preserve. I think aliens have been traipsing around the
neighborhood for a very long time indeed. I think it is hilarious that Dr. Seth
Shostak, one of the noisier SETI guys, says there is nobody at ZR 1 or ZR 2,
because they were listened to by a Southern Radio Observatory 10 years ago. One
would think he knows what equipment and frequency alien communicators way ahead
of us would use, and that they are trying to attract our attention, which
is totally absurd.
Answers also depend greatly on how difficult it is to
travel within the neighborhood. If one is a SETI cultist noting (as on the
terrible Peter Jennings, Feb. 24, 2005, TV mockumentary) that our fastest
spacecraft is the Voyager probe and that it would take 70,000 years to get to
the nearest star, trips would be very uncommon indeed. A much more realistic
approach is to note that Voyager hasnt had a propulsion system on it since it
left Earth. It is coasting, helped by some cosmic freeloading. Can we estimate
the time it takes to cross the ocean by throwing a bottle in? Can we tell how
long it would take to fly from New York to Los Angeles by putting a feather in
the air? It took Charles Lindberg 33 hours to cross the Atlantic. The Concorde
did it in just a few hours. The space station goes around the entire earth in 90
minutes. Electromagnetic signals take 1/7 of a second to
circumscribe the earth.
Remember, we have just started on our
technological kick. Think back to 1900. Note no TV or radio or microwaves or
nuclear power plants or satellites or DNA testing or lasers or computers or
airplanes or rockets or nuclear weapons or transplanted organs. I am convinced
that, unless we stupidly destroy ourselves, there will be a time when star
travel is not considered any more far out than crossing the Atlantic on a 747 is
today. I recently flew nonstop from Newark, New Jersey, to Hong Kong, China, in
less than 17 hours. Nuclear submarines circumnavigate the globe without
surfacing. Obviously there are those who think star travel is impossible. If
that were true, which it isnt, obviously nobody could be coming here
from the stars.
Think of all the
people going through OHare Airport in a year and the huge variety of reasons
for travel. To get the ball rolling, here are some reasons for coming here. I am
sure the reader can think of more:
A. Graduate students doing their thesis work on the development of a
primitive society, on a planet where, amazingly, there is no planetary
government, and where there are many different languages; on various strange
biological specimens, or on genetic variations of
the intelligent beings.
B. Broadcasters with weekly shows such as Idiocy
in the Boondocks.
C. Mining engineers similar to those who went to
California and the Klondike and Australia for gold, or to Texas and the Middle
East for oil. As it happens, the earth is the densest planet in the solar
system, so would be expected to have more of the rare but very important very
heavy metals such as gold, uranium, rhenium, platinum, tungsten, osmium, etc.
These are all much denser than lead. We know from studying star spectra that
they are rare. They also have very special properties.
PhobosNASA
D. Mining engineers
extracting more common metals from the nodules on the bottom of the ocean and
from the asteroids between Mars and Jupiter. We have been talking about doing
this. Obviously war is much more important than ocean mining to us, so we build
nuclear submarines to stay in the depths of the ocean carrying their multitude
of nuclear tipped missiles. There are also abundant supplies of so-called rare
earths, many used in the electronics and nuclear industries. It should not be
forgotten that a century ago the primary use for uranium was to prepare yellow
glazes for pottery. Zirconium and titanium were essentially worthless. Now
nuclear navies use zirconium based alloys because of their splendid nuclear and
anticorrosion properties. Titanium is used in aircraft like the SR-71 because of
its high strength and low density.
E. Operators of refueling and rest and
relaxation centers on the back side of the moon or in the depths of the ocean or
in the asteroid belt.
F. Visitors checking on old colonies established by
their ancestors. Perhaps there were many different ones which might explain why
we have black, brown, red, yellow and white races.
G. Jailers. This may
be a penal colony on which aliens dropped off their bad boys and girls and that
is why we are so nasty to each other. Georgia and Australia were first settled
by convicts. Letting the convicts go bother other civilizations who, unlike us,
have learned to live peacefully, may be a no-no in the galactic
rule book.
H. Vacationers. This may be a recreation center. Notice how
many people visit Hawaii and Las Vegas and Orlando. If the travel wasnt easy,
how many would venture forth to see Mickey Mouse or gaming tables
or surfing beaches?
I. Specimen gathererers for ET zoos and aquariums.
We are still finding new specimens.
J. Local galactic
horticultural societies collecting specimens for their displays and
genetic cross breeding.
K. Medical researchers. They may have to evaluate
the genetic material of loads of specimens to find genetic defects or
super-special genes. There are a number of conditions whose frequency in the
population is quite small (for example, only one person in 14,000 has
hemophilia) so many specimens must be checked.
L. Honymooners. Perhaps
this is the honeymoon capital for this corner of the neighborhood. Special rates
for a week on Earth side trips to the moon and Mars
M. Cartographers.
Local neighborhood maps may describe, for example, the equivalent of English
coaling stations in the 19th century.
N. Sports enthusiasts. There may be
special excursions to observe various such events. Dont forget that a World
Championship Chess match was held in Iceland.
O. Scouts seeking the best
site for a new amusement park in the solar system.
P. Weapons inspectors.
If we make the eminently reasonable assumption that every advanced civilization
is concerned about its own survival and security, than we would expect that our
development of Weapons of Mass Destruction and the means for delivering them in
the local neighborhood would be of great concern. Clearly after World War II it
should take less than a century for us to master fission and fusion and other
new technologies to allow us to take our brand of friendship/hostility out
there. Thus, a logical reason to visit is to quarantine us until we develop a
technique for learning to live at peace with each other. No galactic federation
new-member committee would allow us to join. Too primitive.I suspect that the
SETI cultists think they would be welcome guests. Not very likely.
Q.
Producers. Having worked on a lot of motion picture documentaries at many
locations, I would suggest perhaps some visitors are planning epic fiction and
factual movies for film companies at home shooting on location
hither and yon.
4. WHY is the government not telling what
it knows?
Are they afraid of War of the Worlds panic? I hardly think so.
After all, New Jersey was being destroyed by Martians. What could we do against
them? Panic was not inappropriate. First we have to recognize there is a Cosmic
Watergate and a long history of government lies about UFOs such as I described
in Ref. 1, which lists lies from the FBI, CIA, USAF, NSA, etc. Some want to
insist that (A) governments cant keep secrets, and (B) the real secret is that
they dont know what is going on and cant admit that either.
I disagree
with both. A few examples of secret-keeping that have leaked out: The Manhattan
Engineering District employed 130,000 people to develop the atomic bomb at a
cost of several billion dollars in total secrecy during World War II. The Allies
broke the German code during World War II and had 12,000 people working at
Bletchley Park in the UK intercepting, decoding and translating German military
communications. If the secret had come out, the Germans would have changed their
codes. There was really nothing in public until 25 years later despite the
obviously great improvements in technology. We also had broken the Japanese
military codes again in secret. With regard to B, note that the military
agencies have monitoring systems that provide far more information than we
civilians can obtain and in secret.
The Naval Research Laboratory
finally admitted in 1995 that it had launched a
bunch of Corona electromagnetic
intelligence satellites to monitor Soviet radar and communications systems
starting in 1960, after 12 secret failures. The first one that worked provided
more data than all the previous secret U-2 flights that preceded it. The Soviets
knew about the U-2, but dared not admit that they couldnt do anything about it.
The American people had not been informed. Similarly the Soviets had shot down a
number of military reconnaissance aircraft probing Russia, North Korea, and
China causing the loss of 166 crew members. Their families were lied to:
unfortunate accident, crashed at sea, etc. It was not until 2001 that the USA
had a meeting with families of the crew members that they were told what
happened, even though most of the losses occurred in the 1940s, 50s, and 60s.
Medals were distributed. William Burrows tells the story in his book By Any
Means Necessary (Ref. 2).
The National Reconnaissance Office first
admitted in 2005 that it had launched 7 Poppy satellites between 1962 and 1971.
Their function was to conduct very sophisticated monitoring of electronic and
radar installations on Soviet ships. Thousands of
people were involved.
So yes, indeed, secrets can be kept. The annual US
Black Budget is estimated at 30-40 billion dollars. That is a
lot of secrecy.
So WHY keep UFOs secret?
A. All major countries and many terrorist groups would very much
like to duplicate the flight technology of the saucers. They can literally fly
circles around our vehicles, move at very high speed, make right angle turns,
move straight up and down typically with little noise, no visible engines, no
exhaust. They would make wonderful weapons delivery and defensive systems. Since
we have recovered wreckage at least as early as 1947 (see Crash at
Corona, Ref. 3) we would have set up a highly classified project (call it
Operation Majestic 12 as described in my book TOP SECRET/MAJIC (Ref. 4))
to try both to evaluate the wreckage and to obtain measurements of flight
characteristics using airborne and spaceborne and earth-based radar sets,
cameras, electromagnetic sensors, and other instrumentation. Surely governments
have very much more sophisticated instruments and observation platforms than do
private individuals. The key rule here is that one cant tell ones friends
without telling ones enemies. It appears that there have been many UFO crashes
including ones overseas (Varginha, Brazil, for example). There is a long history
of countries gathering and evaluating crashed vehicles of their enemies. This
does not require a conspiracy; everybody has the same self
interest concerns.
B. Each country worries about its enemies determining
the secrets of saucer technology before they do and must be concerned about how
to defend against new vehicles and also how to learn what the other guy has
already learned. Soviet spies at Los Alamos apparently shortened the time it
took the Soviets to test their first A-bomb (1949) by at least a year.
C.
What if an announcement were made, by highly trusted individuals around the
world, such as the Queen and the Pope, saying that indeed SOME UFOs are ET
spacecraft? Here are some things I believe would happen:
(1) Church attendance would increase.
(2) Mental hospital
admissions would increase.
(3) The stock market would go down;
uncertainty is always the enemy.
(4) Based on my more than 600 college
lectures, the younger generation, which, unlike me, was never alive when there
wasnt a space program, would push for a new view of ourselves as EARTHLINGS
instead of as Americans, Canadians, Greeks, Peruvians, etc. Many would think
that would be great. But I know of no government on Earth that wants its
citizens to owe their primary allegiance to the planet (where it belongs)
instead of to individual national governments. Nationalism is the only game in
town. I believe that alien visitors they may be our landlords, for all we know
think of us as earthlings even though, because of our military traffic, they
would be well aware of different ruling groups
in different places.
D. A small group of religious
fundamentalists (Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson come to mind) have already
loudly proclaimed that UFOs are the work of the devil and there is no other
intelligent life outside Earth. What an insult to the notion of an all powerful
GOD! They would be up the creek without a religious paddle if an announcement
were to be made. They have had a great deal of political clout.
E. Making
an announcement would require that governments admit they have been lying
through their teeth for decades. I dont know of any government that wants
to do that.
F. If an announcement were carefully made without the scare
mongering of War of the Worlds, a lot of people would think that surely,
aliens, who can come here, must be far more advanced technologically than are
we, since we cant go out there. This would strongly suggest that soon there
would be new methods of energy production, air and ground transport, computers
and communication systems, i.e. economic chaos. We are not very good at large
scale economic changes in a hurry. Think of the Soviet Union which, at our
strong demands, had democracy, elections, freedom, capitalism. On the average,
except for the high price of oil, are Russians better off today than they were
17 years ago??
G. Because I am convinced that military pilots in many
countries have been disintegrated or disappeared by UFOs, I think governments
would all be very resistant to telling their citizens that we tried to attack
UFOs and they returned the favor only they succeeded. The head of the American
Rocket Society in 1952 took President Truman to task for the attack orders.
Frank Feschino Jr. (Shoot Them Down) has gathered hundreds of reports of
supposed airplane crashes in the USA and overseas in the early 1950s. Three
military pilots, each of whom flew over 100 missions in Korea where they had to
deal with marauding MIGs, crashed when they came back home. That seems very
suspicious to me.

any other (excluding the sun).NASA

5. WHY would saucers crash?
Usually
this is accompanied by a comment that it makes no sense that a sophisticated
vehicle coming from many light years away could possibly crash. Please note that
the vehicle could have come from a base on the back side of the moon, in the
asteroid belt, on Mars or some alien coaling station in the local
neighborhood. I once did 25 college lectures in 35 days in 15 states. I was gone
all the time from when I left home until I returned rather than going back and
forth to home after each lecture.
A. In the first place, there are many indications that what crashed
at Roswell and in the Plains of San Agustin in New Mexico in early July, 1947,
were small Earth excursion modules rather than the interstellar, very large
vehicles (space carriers? mother ships?) which would have brought them to Earth
just as our large aircraft carriers carry 75 or so small airplanes whose mode of
propulsion is distinctly different from that of the carrier.
B. Secondly,
when we examine major efforts by the Transportation Safety Board to determine
the cause of aircraft crashes, we often find, after much effort, that it was
simple unexpected things ranging from loose bolts, to ingested birds, to faulty
wiring, to pilot error, to ice in the wrong place. It could have been very high
atmospheric electricity levels because of storms or the great dryness of the
desert air. Or unexpected high altitude hail. We know a radar set was on over at
White Sands because of an impending rocket launch and the fact that it used
vacuum tubes. This was a tracking radar pointed North. Crossing the beam might
have led to a small hiccup in the control system for a magnetoaerodynamic
propulsion system leading to a collision and subsequent collision of the lead
saucer and its wingmans saucer. Perhaps a US military rocket launched in the
neighborhood might have inadvertently homed in on a saucer. Perhaps there was a
momentary loss of attention when the Trinity highly radioactive site, at which
the first atomic bomb was tested, was noted. We certainly have no reason to
believe that aliens never make mistakes, or never run into the unexpected. Some
day perhaps the government will release the report that was undoubtedly written
as to the causes of the crashes. Just because we dont have that report, it
doesnt mean the event didnt take place.
6. WHY havent
you seen a flying saucer?
I have no idea, though I have mostly
lived in cities and am watching for traffic rather than looking to the skies. I
check my audiences after my lectures and find that typically 10% have seen one,
which covers many decades. Only 10% of those were reported. I have never seen
Tokyo either or had polio or HIV. I know people who have seen Tokyo, had polio,
or HIV. I spent many years chasing neutrons and gamma rays. Never saw one of
them either. They are also real.
7. WHY do you say SETI stands for Silly
Effort to Investigate?
Frankly I find that there is very little science
behind the SETI effort. It is assumed that there are civilizations using
communication technologies similar to ones we have developed to try to attract
our attention. It assumes there is no colonization and no migration and that
nobody is coming here. They assume that because it takes less energy to send
signals than to travel, that nobody is traveling. Of course nobody flies from
Newark to Hong Kong because the Internet and telephone is cheaper! Hah. It is
all fancily dressed hogwash. They could easily be thousands or millions of years
ahead of us. An AM radio doesnt pick up FM signals. A German General just
before the start of World War II in Europe noted (see Ref. 2) that the Brits
were building a whole array of tall (more than 200') towers with cross pieces
which he figured had to be part of a radar net. The Graf Zeppelin slowly moved
parallel to the array and listened and found no signals. The frequency being
used was 10 times higher than what the Germans were using and they fortunately
were never aware of how well their planes were being tracked.
If
civilizations, with a great deal of common heritage and similar background and
access to similar science, cant correctly predict the technique to be used by
similar people a few hundred miles away, why assume we can second-guess aliens?
They persistently say there is no evidence for UFOs, but always avoid dealing
with the large scale scientific studies. Check their references. Look carefully
at the Drake Equation, their Holy Grail. We have no way to determine the
lifetime of a civilization, or the fraction of planets that have intelligent
life or that develop technology. We have data on one civilization on one
planet in one solar system. Real scientists dont extrapolate or interpolate
from one data point. The SETI people omit colonization and migration which could
greatly lengthen the life span of a civilization. That is pseudoscience, no
matter how many degreed professionals are involved. Admittedly, their job
security is dependent on nobody coming here
8. WHY hasnt the government
taken out Stan Friedman, if what he is saying about a Cosmic Watergate and
overwhelming evidence that we have visitors is true?
Obviously I dont
speak for the government. I am careful in what I say, and I dont break the law
in seeking classified data from people with clearances. I may be doing exactly
what they want, that is, preparing the public for the date when the great
secret is released. I have never had an unlisted telephone number. It is in my
books and on my website. All those lonely drives to Roswell would provide plenty
of opportunity. My answering service is instructed to give out my travel
information to callers. Frankly, I cant live my life looking over my shoulder.
Some have suggested I was too well known and that a sudden death
would be suspicious
9. WHY would people fake a bunch
of MJ-12 documents?
I am not a psychiatrist, but I would suggest to
enhance status;
to think Gotcha; or to disinform the
public so that the fake documents would be an excuse for labeling such genuine
documents as the Eisenhower Briefing Document, the Truman-Forrestal Memo, and
the Cutler-Twining Memo as frauds. Or, perhaps, might it be to be able to claim
that the proponents are stupid or are disinformation specialists? The same old
tired false anti-MJ-12 arguments keep being put forth despite the fact that I
have demonstrated that they are nonsense. The Majestic 12 article in Wikipedia
is loaded with false and misleading claims. For example, in the 5000-word
afterword in TOP SECRET/MAJIC 2nd Edition (2005), in Update on Operation
Majestic 12 (see www.stantonfriedman.com), in Roswell
and the MJ-12 Documents in the New Millennium (Ref.5), and in my Review of
Case MJ-12 also on my website I demolish the antis and show that other MJ-12
documents are fraudulent. Remember, one of the key rules for debunkers is Dont
bother me with the facts, my mind is made up. Another is Do your research by
proclamation, investigation is too much trouble and the public wont know the
difference. I distinctly showed that at least seven of the supposed MJ-12
documents provided to Timothy Cooper are emulations of real documents published
in books and generally available. They were retyped, much handwritten material
was Xeroxed or scanned, and the two were combined. And there were often factual
misstatements. Deuterium is not light hydrogen. Sandia is in New
Mexico, while General Spaatz was not in New Mexico on July 7, 1947 (I
found his flight log and a newspaper article and desk calendar indicating he was
in Port Aransas, Texas, fishing).
Some of the statements from the phony
emulations were repeated in other documents which means the latter ones were
also phony. I have been told that when good information is leaked, bad is put
out so as to confuse things and imply the real ones are phony: guilt by
association. It is interesting that Colonel Richard Weaver, author of the
grossly misleading USAF Book The Roswell Report: Truth vs. Fiction in the New
Mexico Desert (see Ref. 5) had as his military specialty Disinformation.
He provided the fiction.
10. WHY have you kept at it since reading
Ruppelts book in 1958 and giving your first lecture in 1967?
I enjoy
being on the stage and the very enthusiastic response I get from my audiences,
especially from the technical societies. I am pleased when people tell me that
they decided to teach a course about UFOs, after hearing me talk. I can think of
no subject more important to the future for my children and grandson than the
notion of an earthling orientation in the hope of helping stop the proliferation
of nuclear weapons. What is more exciting than alien visitations and government
cover-ups? I believe I bring a unique background to my presentations:
A. So far as I know I have worked on more cancelled high technology
classified programs than anybody and so can deal with those silly It would
violate the laws of Physics arguments. Not many have worked on nuclear
airplanes, or in general on fission and fusion propulsion systems.
B.
Because I worked on many classified programs and have visited 20 archives, I am
in a better position than most to deal with the silly Secrets cant
be kept notions.
C. Because I have probably had to answer about 40,000
questions at lectures and on talk shows and in classes, I have been forced to
think about the questions such as the WHY? questions,
more than most.
D. I was very fortunate to be able to find that my memory
was good and reliable (at least until recently) and I could give acceptable
answers in a hurry. Being on debate teams in high school probably helped a lot.
I have been very lucky, first to have worked on so many leading edge classified
programs, and second to be able to provide so many presentations to
attentive audiences.
MUFON Journal and UFO Magazine Column - February 3, 2009 By Stanton T. Friedman
hated wasting the money to buy the January/February 2009 issue of the Skeptical Inquirer (Vol. 33, Issue 1) which has for years been trying to debunk all sorts of so-called paranormal phenomena. But the cover said: Special Issue The New UFO Interest: Scientific Appraisals. This is an excellent example of false advertising since the appraisals are anything but scientific. SI is published by what is now labeled The Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (CSI Lite??). In actuality, the active writers and investigators arent skeptics. They are Debunkers doing their best to pull the wool over the eyes of a curious public. They know the answers, and so dont really need to investigate. Proclamation is more their style. Deception is the name of the game. For example, inside the front cover is a very impressive list of about 75 scientists, writers, philosophers, etc., including three Nobel Prize winners. Also included on the list is Bill Nye, The Science Guy, whose purpose is to Deny judging by his Larry King appearances. Unfortunately, most of the highly credentialed people arent the ones who write the articles or investigate. The dirty work in the trenches is normally done by the debunkers in residence. The primary tools are those of the propagandists such as very selective choice of data, positive and negative name calling, and misrepresentation.
Listed under Investigative Files is an article Return to Roswell by Dr. Joseph Nickell. Joes three degrees are in English and he spent a lot of time as a magician. Not much science there. Of course the stock-in-trade of magicians is intentional deception with another sterling example being the Amazing Randi. Joes been attacking Roswell for over a decade. At the 50th Anniversary celebration in Roswell, I was being interviewed there, and he was in California. We couldnt see each other, but could hear. He explained Roswell by saying the press release was put out by the PR person from the base to attract attention to himself! Joe didnt even know Walter Hauts name. I pointed out that I had known Walter from almost twenty years and that the notion that the PR person for the most elite military organization in the world, the 509th Bomb Group, would put out such a press release without his bosss blessing was completely absurd. Of course in SI Joe never mentions the 509th or that it had dropped the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 and set off two more at Operation Crossroads in the Pacific in 1946. It is of some interest that Walter Haut was chosen to drop the instrument package during one of those tests, that he had flown over twenty bombing missions as a bombardier over Japan during WW2 and was quite close to Colonel Blanchard, 509th Commander. Some inexperience!
Col. William BlanchardU.S. Air Force
Apparently Joe had learned nothing from our exchange and stated On July 8, 1947, an unauthorized press release from an eager but relatively inexperienced public information officer at New Mexicos Roswell Army Air Field propelled the Roswell Incident into history. It has been known for thirty years that Blanchard ordered (authorized) Walter to put out the release. Walter after years in the far east during WW2 was hardly just wet behind the ears. Joe even goes on to claim Kenneth Arnolds sighting two weeks earlier may well have been nothing more than mirage effects caused by a temperature inversion. That is as sensible as saying the moon may be made of green cheese. This crazy notion was thoroughly destroyed by Dr. Bruce Maccabee, a physicist. But why let the facts get in the way?
Nickell goes on to say the young officer was reprimanded. He provides no evidence. I and others have asked both Walter and his wife and both denied there was any reprimand. Why would there have been, since Blanchard had ordered the release? Nickell then moves right over to the baseless Project Mogul explanation which has been thoroughly destroyed by Brad Sparks and Dr. David Rudiak and Dr. Jesse Marcel Jr. (Ref.1) despite the assertions of Dr. Charles Moore who worked on the program.
Nickell describes in some detail tests run by Engineer Robert Galganski with the Discovery TV Channel crew and Nickell in attendance. They put up a half size Mogul Balloon Train carrying some radar reflectors and then shot down the balloons showing that the area covered by the debris was much smaller than described by Major Jesse Marcel. Joe was there and doesnt really buy the test because he notes that Jesses estimate, 3/4 of a mile long by hundreds of feet wide, was much greater than described by Rancher Mack Brazel in the July 9 Roswell Daily Record article. He quotes that article at length, but somehow never mentions that Brazel was sure what he had found wasnt balloons. He also fails to mention that testimony from Brazels son Bill, neighbor Loretta Proctor, and others all saying that Brazel was brought back into town on July 9 and given a new story to tell the press. Also not noted is that if all there had been was the bundle about three feet long and 7 or 8 inches thick and the another rubber bundle 18-20 inches long and 8 inches thick with a total weight of maybe 5 pounds, it would easily have fit in Brazels small truck and there would have been no reason for Marcel and Counter Intelligence Corps Captain Sheridan Cavitt to follow Brazel the long way back to the ranch on July 6 as they did. Joe, of course, never mentions that the July 8 article, carried all over in Evening papers from Chicago West, said the wreckage was found last week. The phony July 9 explanation says found June 14 hardly last week from July 8.
Joe also notes that though the news story died almost immediately, but the event continued as the subject of folklore and fakelore [much provided by Roswell Debunkers] there emerged amateurishly forged government conspiracy documents. He has a note saying The MJ-12 Documents fooled arch Roswell-conspiracy writer Stanton T. Friedman who has continued to tout the bogus documents (Friedman 1996). WRONG, Joe. I have done far more detailed investigation (not Nickell-style proclamations) to show that the great majority of the MJ-12 documents are indeed fakes but that the four major ones are solid. As I recall Joe claimed the Eisenhower Briefing Document was an obvious fraud because of the comma in the date 18 November, 1952. As it happens that was one of many date formats in use at the time. I found seven original documents which were used as a basis for phony emulations and was able to dispose of the other objections to the four good ones in Ref. 2, 2005, and a number of papers none noted by Nickell, of course. Ref. 3 by myself and Don Berliner is also not noted.
Robert Sheaffer also contributed a historical overview: Ufology 2009: A Six Decade Perspective. Sheaffer clearly shows his disdain for UFO abductions and the rest of the UFO scene, and for the facts as well. Speaking of Betty and Barney Hill: Under hypnosis, they each told a UFO Abduction story that largely matched Bettys nightmares (which Barney had heard her repeat many times). The comment is nonsense. Barney read Bettys dreams once, and the notes were put in a drawer. There was no repetition and the comparative analysis of what they said under hypnosis and what was in the dreams is detailed by Bettys niece Kathleen Marden, in our book Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experiences (Ref. 4) also not referenced. Sheaffer theorizes a New Age vs. Science Fiction ufology. Both are junk science and consistently ignore Occams razor (all things being equal, the simplest solution is the best). By far the simplest solution to the UFO problem is that the best cases (Multiple witness radar visual, landings etc.) involve alien spacecraft. Debunking ufology of the SI variety ignores science all together. He also claims The FBI investigated the documents [MJ-12] and quickly concluded that the documents were completely bogus.
Not so. The FBI on its website carries the USAF Colonel Weavers set with his hand written comment BOGUS. They accepted his word. Sheaffer also claims one document was typed on a typewriter that was not manufactured until fifteen years after the date on the document. This, too, is nonsense as noted in Ref. 2 on page 227 which quotes forensic document examiner James Black that the typeface preceded the document date by seven years.
Dr. David Morrison, a NASA senior scientist, chimes in in SI with UFOS and Aliens in Space. He says If UFOs are alien spacecraft visiting Earth, then it seems reasonable that evidence of alien civilizations might be seen by astronomers or the radio signals
from alien spacecraft might be picked up by the sensitive receivers we use to communicate with our own spacecraft. Frankly this is absurd. Astronomers (some of whom have indeed seen UFOs) arent looking for signals from alien spacecraft which are very likely using techniques about which we are ignorant. Maybe secret NSA listening devices pick up alien signals, but then the NSA doesnt release info about what signals it receives. They did release 156 pages of UFO related intercepts. All but one or two sentences per page are redacted (whited out). Another astronomer, Andrew Fraknoi, has a brief piece bemoaning the lack of sightings by even amateur astronomers. There is no mention, of course, of Stanford astrophysicist Dr. Peter Sturrocks discussion of astronomer UFO sightings as noted in Ref. 5.
Retired air force major and pilot, James McGaha, also an avid astronomer, with his own observatory, lists fourteen areas of astronomical knowledge needed to be a good UFO observer. He, too, has appeared on Larry King attacking unqualified observers. One hardly needs to be very astronomically knowledgeable to describe the silent slow flight at low altitude of the huge Phoenix lights taking four minutes to fly right overhead blotting out the stars as it did so. I can enjoy and benefit from eating various foods without being an expert on the digestion process. He and I tangled in a spirited formal university debate as can be seen in Ref. 6.
Another SI anti-Roswell article is Roswell Update: Fading Star? by Dave Thomas, a scientist in New Mexico and President of New Mexicans for Science and Reason. Dave has certainly demonstrated his lack of knowledge of both the Roswell and Aztec UFO crash retrieval cases. I am looking forward to a soon-to-be-published book by Scott and Suzanne Ramsey about the Aztec case. Unlike Thomas, they did an enormous amount of serious research.
There are a few other articles as well. Suffice to say that the Skeptical Inquirer provides many examples of the intellectual bankruptcy of the pseudoscience of anti-ufology.

BOOKREVIEW - SCIENCE WAS WRONG: STARTLING TRUTHS ABOUT CURES, THEORIES, AND INVENTIONS THEY DECLARED IMPOSSIBLE
Stanton Friedman and Kathleen Mardens SCIENCE WAS WRONG: STARTLING TRUTHS ABOUT CURES, THEORIES, AND INVENTIONS THEY DECLARED IMPOSSIBLE
Career Press New Page Books Paperback July 2010 by Stanton T. Friedman
eaders may be interested in a very recent review of Science Was Wrong: Startling Truths about Cures, Theories, and Inventions They Declared Impossible. Kathleen Marden and I each wrote seven chapters. The review by John Harney can be seen at The Magonia Blog. Harney isnt bothered by the chapters on aviation, space, cold fusion, climate change, communications, Jupiter and man, various medical situations, etc. He is bothered by the ones dealing with frontier and paranormal phenomena, the Abduction conundrum, and of course, UFOs.
Harney says Friedman launches his familiar attacks on the debunkers; though he devotes too much space to those who know little about the subject and have never carried out serous investigations and whose opinions are thus hardly worth commenting on. I wonder who he means sounds like the debunkers . I focused on the research of Dr. James E. McDonald, associate director of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (most UFOs are indeed seen in the atmosphere) and a full professor of Physics at the University of Arizona. Jim interviewed over 500 witnesses, lectured to many professional groups and provided a 71-page paper concerning 41 cases he had examined to Congressional Hearings in 1968 (see books, etc.). Another focus was Dr. J. Allen Hynek, head of the astronomy department at Northwestern University and for more than 20 years consultant to the Air Force Project Blue Book. He investigated many sightings as reported, for example, in his book The UFO Experience. I also noted the outstanding work of Ted Phillips, who has collected literally thousands of physical trace cases from more than 80 countries and visited many hundreds of sites. Perhaps Harney is referring to Dr. Carl Sagan whom I did criticize and who has indeed never done any serious investigations? Harney falsely claims that I said The reason why we dont have definitive proof of UFO reality is government secrecy. He fails to address the obvious question which is How can governments keep secret for over 60 years something over which they have no control? Harney should obviously realize that governments dont need to control the aliens. They definitely do control the sophisticated devices for monitoring and tracking UFOs and examining UFO wreckage from events such as Roswell, and the dissemination of that data, which is born classified. These include ground, air, and space radar systems, radar and cameras on board aircraft chasing UFOs, and on board ships at sea. During WW2 governments made sure that no word was spread about Japanese Fugo Balloon bombs which they also didnt control.
My co-author, Kathleen Marden, has commented about Harneys uninformed views about her chapters.
Response to The Magonia Blogs book review of Science Was Wrong by Stanton T. Friedman, M.Sc. and Kathleen Marden (Kathleen Mardens reply)
I was somewhat dismayed but not surprised by The Magonia Blogs review of our new book, Science Was Wrong: Startling Truths About Cures, Theories, and Inventions They Declared Impossible. Magonias reviewer, John Harney, delivered a fairly accurate assessment of our books subject matter how scientific and technological progress has been retarded by authoritative persons who have declared innovations and inventions be either wrong or of no practical use. He then mentions some of our more controversial chapters global warming, parapsychology and UFOs. The scientific evidence for the latter are discussed in a section titled Frontiers of Science. He should have mentioned that our book is divided into five sections: Aerospace, Technology, Medicine, Politics, and the Frontiers of Science.
He claims that The authors favour the genuineness of psychic phenomena, as one would expect. as if the information presented were based upon emotionality rather than statistical evidence. But he fails to inform the reader of my (Kathleens) extensive research of tightly controlled experimental studies, designed by parapsychologists and skeptics working together, that indicate there is reproducible scientific evidence in support of psi phenomena in thousands of telepathy experiments. He also avoids mentioning the failure of academia to accept the results due to personal bias and the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences call for a fairer hearing across a broader spectrum of the scientific community so that emotionality does not impede the object assessment of experimental results. This came after a Harvard University professor was asked by the committee to withhold information favorable to psi.
Harney fails to mention that my chapter (Kathleens) on alien abduction discusses the infamous Trick Memo written at the projects inception in 1966 by Robert Low, the Condon Committees project coordinator , that clearly voices the biased opinion that In order to undertake such a project, one would have to approach it objectively. That is, one has to admit the possibility that such things as UFOs exist. It is not respectable to give serious consideration to such a possibility The very act of admitting these possibilities just as possibilities put us beyond the pale I can quite easily imagine, however, that psychologists, sociologists and psychiatrists might well generate scholarly publications as a result of their investigations of saucer observers. Nor does he mention the fact that Section 7 of the National Academy of Sciences review report recommended that UFO reports should be of interest to social scientists.
He does claim however, that I attack the work of psychologists who attribute such (abduction) reports to the effects of sleep paralysis. Attack is an extremely strong word to describe my discussion of the characteristics of sleep paralysis and hypnagogic/hypnopompic hallucinations. There is no attack on psychologists who favor the sleep paralysis hypothesis. In fact, I dont even mention names only the statement that some experiencers do not have the classic symptoms of sleep paralysis (waking up paralyzed and able to move only ones eyes). Instead, they cry out, attempt to flee, or throw things at their captors prior to the onset of paralysis. I also stated that some wake up locked out of their homes, on their roofs, in someone elses home or in their vehicles. On page 205 I wrote, A full 30 percent of abductees recall the entire experience without hypnosis, and do not fit nicely into the sleep anomaly or fantasy-prone personality group. Does this presentation of research findings sound like an attack? Certainly debunkers must shutter when they hear this information. He further alleges that my dismissive attitude is hardly scientific. Actually, my attitude is not dismissive. I clearly state that some individuals believe they have been abducted by aliens, for a variety of psychological reasons, when they have not. I also present evidence that some psychological hypotheses dont hold water and some psychological studies appear to be biased. Harneys problem is that I dont dismiss all UFO abductions.
My chapter actually focuses upon the results of academic psychology studies of suspected or self identified abductees that might explain alien abduction and the surprising results of studies conducted in the US and Canada. I then present the evidence that some alien abductions are real.
Harney lambasts me for my paragraph on the work of Derrel Sims and Roger Leir on alleged alien implants. I suppose he is distressed that I wrote about the medical finding that tissue surrounding the implants exhibits no signs of inflammatory response, and a large number of specialized nerve cells within the tissue samples had no anatomical reason to be there. Horrors! Even worse, I mentioned Leirs report that one suspected implant emitted a radio frequency that would broadcast in a deep-space frequency, and that one of Leirs specimens showed trace element patterns and isotopic ratios consistent with meteoric origin (see my footnotes). Harney summarily dismisses these scientific findings with the statement that they have never presented any evidence that there is anything exotic about any of these. You decide.
It is clear that Harney objected to my overview of the research findings on both sides of the debate and would have preferred a narrow discussion in support of psychological hypotheses. However, the chapters title is The Conundrum of Alien Abduction. The American Heritage Dictionary defines conundrum as a problem admitting of no satisfactory solution; A difficult and complicated problem. Both sides of the issue deserve discussion.

Peruaanse luchtmacht opent UFO-afdeling
Peruaanse luchtmacht opent UFO-afdeling
Aanstaande vrijdag roept de Peruaanse luchtmacht een nieuwe afdeling in het leven die zich helemaal gaat richten op het onderzoek naar ongeïdentificeerde vliegende objecten (UFOs).
De afdeling krijgt de naam DIFAA, wat staat voor Departamento de Investigación de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos.
De luchtmacht gaat nauw samenwerken met een burgeradviesraad die bestaat uit onderzoekers, wetenschappers en intellectuelen, waaronder oud-commandant Julio Cesar Chamorro, archeoloog Manuel Aguirre Morales, onderzoeksjournalist Marco Barraza Camacho, de directeur van het Peruaanse Instituut voor Astronomie Barthelemy dAns, ingenieur Enrique Álvarez Vita, communicatiedeskundige Patricia Meseth Petrucelli, filosoof Luis Enrique Alvizuri en socioloog Giorgio Piacenza.
Nazcalijnen
Zowel de DIFAA als de adviesraad zullen op een objectieve en ruimdenkende manier onderzoek doen naar de vele aspecten van het UFO-fenomeen en de vermeende of feitelijke aanwezigheid van buitenaardse wezens op aarde.
Aanstaande vrijdag zal de Peruaanse luchtmacht de nieuwe afdeling officieel openen op het hoofdkwartier van de DIFAA in het district Miraflores in Lima. Tijdens de opening spreekt archeoloog Manuel Aguirre Morales over de Nazcalijnen. Giorgio Piacenza zal het hebben over de mogelijke aanwezigheid van buitenaardsen en exopolitiek.
Stigma
Veel Latijns-Amerikaanse landen volgen het voorbeeld van Peru en proberen het onnodige stigma rond UFOs en de buitenaardse aanwezigheid op aarde te doorbreken.
Diverse media melden dat komeet C/2012 S1 (ISON) begint op te lichten en nog steeds de komeet van de eeuw kan worden. Maar is ISON wel een komeet?
Op internet wordt hierover druk gediscussieerd. Er circuleert een foto waaruit zou blijken dat komeet ISON uit drie verschillende objecten bestaat.
De foto is op 30 april jongstleden gemaakt met ruimtetelescoop Hubble en laat zien dat twee van de objecten een cyclindrische vorm hebben. Afgelopen augustus beweerde een groep bloggers dat komeet ISON werd vergezeld door twee moederschepen en dat de kern van de komeet in feite een grote biosfeer is.
Spectaculair vuurwerk
De claims konden rekenen op een officiële reactie van NASA-wetenschappers, die stelden dat er drie objecten waren verschenen omdat Hubble met verschillende filters een aantal fotos had gemaakt, die waren gecombineerd tot de uiteindelijke foto.
Komeet ISON werd in september 2012 ontdekt door Russische amateurastronomen. Op 10 april maakte Hubble er de eerste fotos van. Volgens NASA tonen de Hubble-fotos een komeet met een kleine kern en een grote coma. De ruimtevaartorganisatie schat dat de kern een doorsnee heeft van enkele kilometers, terwijl de coma en de staart respectievelijk 5000 en 90.000 kilometer lang zijn.
Komeet ISON werd op 29 september gefotografeerd door de Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter en nadert de zon het dichtst op 28 november aanstaande. Op 26 december staat komeet ISON op een veilige 64 miljoen kilometer van de aarde.
Veel astronomen hopen dat de passage van komeet ISON in november zal leiden tot spectaculair vuurwerk. Sommigen spreken zelfs van de komeet van de eeuw. Volgens de Britse krant The Guardian had komeet ISON tot een week geleden nog een magnitude van 10, maar kan die eind oktober wel eens 8 of 7 bedragen.
Chinese satelliet
Amateurastronomen hebben de fotos van Hubble geanalyseerd en kwamen tot de ontdekking dat de kern van komeet ISON bestaat uit drie afzonderlijke objecten, waarvan twee met een cylindrische vorm. Dit wordt ontkend door sterrenkundigen die werken met de Hubble-telescoop.
Wat het allemaal nog mysterieuzer maakt is een vermeende video van komeet ISON waaruit blijkt dat de komeetkern wordt vergezeld door twee UFOs. De video zou zijn gemaakt met behulp van een Chinese satelliet, echter zijn de beelden niet terug te vinden op de website van het Chinese nationale ruimteagentschap CNSA.
Op internet doen verschillende beweringen de ronde. Eén blogger, Tolec, claimt bijvoorbeeld dat komeet ISON in feite een grote biosfeer is die wordt vergezeld door twee kleine schepen. Dit is een groot schip dat wordt bestuurd door de Galactische Federatie, schrijft hij.
Is de foto uit april het resultaat van een combinatie van meerdere fotos, zoals sterrenkundigen hebben beweerd? Of wordt komeet ISON vergezeld door twee UFOs, zoals zou blijken uit de beelden van de Chinese satelliet?
If
NASA can get images with stunning, perfect clarity on Mars of this quality ...
why won't they do the same from the Cydonia Complex where the alleged "Face on
Mars" and pyramids are located? It simply doesn't pass the smell test. Shame on
the science & academic Establishment.
