The Allagash Alien Incident Where Abductees Had Skin, Urine, Feces, Sperm Tested
The Allagash Alien Incident Where Abductees Had Skin, Urine, Feces, Sperm Tested
Location: Eagle Lake Allagash Waterway Maine Date: August 26 1976
Time: late night
On Friday night, August 20, four young art students in their early twenties left Boston, Massachusetts for a canoe and camping trip in a wilderness area of Northern Maine along the Allagash River. The group consisted of identical twins, Jack and Jim Weiner, Charlie Foltz and Chuck Rak. Upon arrival at a staging point, they hired a pontoon airplane which flew them and their canoes to Telos Lake on the Allagash Waterway. During the next several days they canoed and camped along the Waterway. On the evening of Thursday, August 26, they reached Eagle Lake, set up camp and decided to go night fishing for trout. The pitch darkness of the area necessitated the building of a huge bonfire to mark their campsite so that they could find their way back to it. Shortly after beginning to fish, Chuck became aware of a feeling of being watched. He said, “I turned toward the direction from where I felt this and saw a large bright sphere of colored light hovering motionless and soundless about 200-300 feet above the southeastern rim of the cove.” Chuck yelled for the others to look behind them. There, rising above the trees was a huge oval glowing object. As their eyes became adapted to its intense brightness, a gyroscopic motion was noted, as if there were pathways of energy flowing equatorially and longitudinally from pole to pole. This divided the sphere into four oscillating quadrants of bright colored light. The color changes were very liquid and enveloping, as if the entire object had a plasmatic motion to it, like a thick sauce does as it starts a rolling boil. Charlie grabbed a flashlight and blinked it at the object. Instantly, the huge rising glowing object came to an abrupt halt and began to slowly approach the canoe. Simultaneously, a tube-shaped beam of light erupted from the object and hit the water. A glowing ring with a dark center reflected on the water’s surface, indicating that the beam was hollow. The object and its beam of light began moving toward the canoe. Terrified, the campers began paddling frantically toward their bonfire and camp as the beam swept across the lake directly at them and engulfed them. It was from this point on that the conscious memories of the four differed according to each witness’ vantage point. The next thing Charlie remembered was paddling for shore and standing at the campsite with the others, watching the object move away. Chuck Rak remembers staying in the canoe after the others had piled out in panic onto the shore. Transfixed, still holding his idle paddle, he could not take his eyes off the object. Jack and Jim were able to consciously remember a bit more. Jack said that “It was just behind us and I could see that we were never going to outrun the beam. It was advancing too fast and I remember thinking, ‘Holy shit! This is it! We’ll never get away.’ The next thing he knew, they were on the shore getting out of the canoe looking directly at the object which was now about 20 or 30 feet above the water. The beam was coming out of the bottom of it like the object was sitting on the beam. It hovered there, right in front of us, completely silent for what seemed like four or five minutes. Suddenly the beam was pointing up towards the sky. The object began to move up and away from them towards the southwestern sky and then shot into the stars and was gone in just a second. Jim Weiner said that “There was no mistake that it was coming directly to us. Then I remember standing on the lakeshore watching the object hovering above the lake 50 to 75 yards in front of us…Then the search beam went upward into the sky and we saw it moving away at a tremendous speed. We all seemed to be in a state of shock…We just stood there unable to move or talk.” When the strange anesthetizing effect wore off, Chuck got out of the canoe and joined the others as they trudged dreamily up the beach to their camp. Even in this state, they were dumbfounded when they realized what had happened to the huge bonfire that had just been blazing several minutes ago. “When we left to go fishing,” said Jim, “we set very large logs on the fire to burn for a good 2 to 3 hours. The entire experience seemed to last, at the most, 15 or 20 minutes. Yet the fire was completely burned down to red coals.” At that time, they had no memory of what happened during the time it took for their huge bonfire to burn down. This would remain a puzzle to them for years. A few years later, Jim suffered a head injury which caused temporal-limbic epilepsy. During treatment, Jim’s doctors asked him to report any unusual experiences that might be symptomatic of his condition. Jim described strange experiences that he and his friends had experienced since the UFO encounter. These included awaking at night to see strange creatures, levitation from bed, and temporary paralysis while something was done to the genitals. He also described their encounter with a UFO and the period of missing time. Jim’s doctors advised him to contact a UFO researcher as they felt that Jim and his friends may have been involved in a UFO abduction experience. Jim contacted Raymond Fowler during one of his UFO lectures in the Boston area. In January of 1989 Fowler initiated a formal investigation with MUFON investigator and CEIII/IV specialist, David Webb (Solar Physicist) and with MUFON consultant, Anthony (Tony) Constantino (Professional Hypnotist). It was conducted in a careful and meticulous manner over a period of 24 months. It was obvious to them that the period of missing time had to be sandwiched between sighting the object and reaching shore. The beam of light hitting the canoe seemed to be the dividing point between memory and amnesia. During the first of a long series of hypnosis sessions, it was decided to concentrate on this segment of the terrifying encounter. Under hypnosis, all four witnesses relived detailed and traumatic UFO abduction experiences during the period of missing time. All were transferred from their canoe into the UFO by the hollow tube-like beam of light. On board, they encountered strange humanoid creatures that exerted some kind of mind control over them so that they could not resist their demands. All were made to undress and sit on a plastic-like bench in an area illuminated by diffuse white light. After looking at their eyes and in their mouths with a pencil-sized rod with a light on its tip, the aliens placed them in a harness and flexed their arms and legs. Then, one by one they were made to lie on a table where each was examined by a number of strange hand-held and larger machine-like instruments that were lowered over their bodies. During this segment of the examination, the alien entities removed samples of saliva, skin scrapings, blood, feces, urine and sperm from each of the abductees. After the examination the abductees were made to dress and enter another room which had a round portal in one of its walls. They were lined up and made to walk into the portal. Strange sensations surged through their bodies as they found themselves floating down the hollow beam of light into their canoe which was now in shallow water near their campsite. The tube-like light seemed to hold the canoe steady as each was placed in it in the same seating position they were in prior to the abduction. As the hypnosis sessions continued, much detail was recovered about their on board experience. Also it was discovered that the twins had had bedtime visitations by alien creatures and abduction experiences since early childhood. These experiences were relived in vivid detail under hypnosis. The humanoids were described as having large oval-shaped heads and long necks, with large shiny oval-shaped black eyes. They had claw-like three-finger hands and were about six feet tall and dark gray in color.

Location: White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico Date: March 1956
Time: 03:00 a.m.
Air Force Sgt Jonathan P. Lovette and a Major Conningham were out in a field from the launch sites looking for debris from a missile test when Sgt Lovette went over the ridge of a small sand dune and was out of sight for a time. Major Conningham then heard Sgt Lovette scream in what was described as terror or agony. The Major thinking Lovette had been bitten by a snake or something ran over the crest of the dune and saw Sgt Lovette being dragged into what appeared to him and was described as being a silvery disc-like object which hovered in the air approximately 15 to 20 ft away. Major Conningham described what appeared to be a long snake-like object, which was wrapped around the sergeant’s legs and was dragging him to the craft. Major Conningham admittedly froze as the sergeant was dragged inside the disc and observed the disc going up into the sky very quickly. Major Conningham got on the jeep radio and reported the incident to Missile Control whereupon Missile Control confirmed a radar sighting. Search parties went into the desert looking for Lovette. Major Conningham’s report was taken and he was admitted to the White Sands Base Dispensary for observation. The search for Sgt Lovette continued for three days at the end of which his nude body was found approximately ten miles downrange. The body had been mutilated; the tongue had been removed from the lower portion of the jaw. An incision had been made just under the tip of the chin and extended all the way back to the esophagus and larynx. He had been emasculated and his eyes had been removed. Also, his anus had been removed and there were comments in the report on the apparent surgical skill of the removal of these items including the genitalia. The report commented that the anus and the genitalia had been removed, as though a plug, which in the case of the anus extended all the way to the colon. His body had also been completely drained of all blood.

After visiting St Paul’s Grotto in Rabat, Malta we decided to spend some more time underground and visit the Catacombs (sometimes referred to at St.Paul’s Catacombs). These were initially built by the Romans but have also been used by Jews and Christians, at a later date, to bury their dead. I believe there is room for over 1000 bodies.
According to Heritage Malta the: “… Catacombs are a typical complex of interconnected, underground Roman cemeteries that were in use up to the 4th century AD … Part of the catacombs were used again during the re-Christianisation of the Island around the 13th century.”
The strange thing when visiting them today is that you first have to walk through underground tunnels and rooms that were used during the second world war as air raid shelters. The top photo shows the passage or tunnel and the second photo is of one of the ‘rooms’ off of the tunnel.
The tunnels were built using pick axes and were for the general public when the warning sirens were heard. Later some were given permission to build their own rooms so that they had some privacy.
After walking through these air raid tunnels the passages get narrow (see below) and it’s these that lead to the Catacombs – and it’s quite creepy! Especially as we were in there on our own, and it became something almost like a maze. The few lights cast shadows and shapes on the walls. Not a place to go if you are claustrophobic!
I found it all very interesting, and even spotted the odd bone, but I think Karin would have been happier if there had been more people about than just us – safety in numbers, and all that!
From what I’ve read the tombs were for the residents of the nearby town of Mdina (the Roman town of Melita). It was against their laws to bury the dead within their city walls.
There is a sign before reaching the Catacombs that Lord Horatio Nelson paid a visit on the 4th of May 1800. He was welcomed, at the time, by the rector and chaplains of the Knights of Malta.
After we’d had a good look round we managed to find our way out again into the bright sunshine, and walked to the walled town of Mdina. Maybe more on that another day.
Mysterious cases of shadow people are a common report that paranormal investigators investigate. During their investigations, they have seen and documented this phenomenon first-hand many times. These shadow people or shadow figures typically move very quickly and are not associated with anyone or anything visible.
Typical reports are that the shadow figure (also called a dark mass) is seen through the viewer’s peripheral vision and by the time the viewer has turned around to look at the shadow figure, it is gone. If you are lucky enough, you may be able to view one with your direct vision – and some simply lurk instead of moving very quickly.
Types of Shadow Figures
Creepers From experience, these are the most unnerving shadow figure to behold. We experienced one of these in the Old Barnstable Gaol. These shadow figures literally crawl along the floor, up the walls, or along the ceiling. As with any shadow figures they can move slowly or deliberately to extremely fast. Many assume these are evil creatures, but we cannot state this because we like to look at intent before one is classified as evil or harmless. The creeper we encountered did not seem evil as it left when prompted to. If it was truly evil, it would have disregarded our request.
Dark Mass We term another group as a dark mass as it has no discernible form. They can vary in size and shape and often move slower than shadow figures or creepers.
Dark Mist This is exactly as it sounds; a dark and smoky feature is present. Many are accustomed to the white or gray mists captured on photos; this is a cousin of those features. These mists allow some light to pass through and move as if it had a purpose.
The stereotype is that shadow figures flee in the presence of humans – especially if they are seen. Investigators have encountered this , but have also encountered many shadow figures that do not flee, but come closer to check them out. They have experienced shadow figures who want to be seen. Shadow figures can move through walls or any other obstacles – they are not bound by physical limitations that we encounter. Often their movement is described as unnatural – they can be very fast and disjointed. They can move naturally then appear to quickly transport to another location within the environment.
As for the actual shadow figure, it seems to be made of a dense energy that is impenetrable to light. From our own experience light seems to be absorbed in the black mass and it will not shine through the figure. The light does not reflect either – the beam of light just stops on the figure. There is one common element to shadow figures; they have no discernible features (except for shape). One cannot recognize style of clothing and there is no discernible mouth, nose, facial expressions, or eyes (although a growing number of reports claim red eyes).
Many believe that shadow figures are demonic or evil. While some may have ill-intention, most of them, if not the majority are harmless. They just are a different representation of a spirit than most associate with the paranormal. Most people know apparitions, balls of light, vortices, and paranormal mists. These entities are able to project in a different “format”. Since most people confuse the feeling of evil with their own fear of the unknown, most assume that these figures are evil.

No one really understands the science behind dark masses and shadow people. It is theorized that this phenomenon represents a body composed of a matter that is not visible to the human eye. Light will not pass through this figure because it is too dense and the result will create a shadow.
Human eyes cannot see x-rays and gamma rays, but yet they exist. We have been conditioned in life to think that we must see something in order for it to be true. Belief is that these entities are in a frequency that our human eyes are not capable of seeing – but they are there! In other words our eyes and brains cannot fathom the picture that is painted and the brain finishes the image for us showing us something is there.
While we are confident that most shadow figures are harmless, we also know that some can be a bit nasty. As in all paranormal entities, their personalities vary – just like living humans. Spirits keep the same personality they had while alive – so if someone was a mass-murdering creep, odds are they would be a nasty spirit. Until the spirit enters the light, they will retain any emotional and physical baggage with them.
Let’s say that they are real… What are they? Theories include: ghosts, inter-dimensional beings, time travellers and demons. And like the exterminator example, each would be dealt with in a different manner.
If they are inter-dimensional beings or time travellers, there may not be much we can do to get rid of them because they would presumably have their own agendas and reasons for showing up. Why would they leave just because we wanted them to? Who knows what they’re up to, if anything? I should add that these two possibilities are rather remote.
Possible Alternatives
As with all paranormal claims, one must be careful in not mistaking alternative explanations as a paranormal entity. If one thinks their home is haunted – every little thing becomes magnified and everything becomes paranormal in their mind.
If you think you saw a shadow figure with the corner of your eye, look to rule out other scenarios first. Could headlights from a passing car create a shadow from a piece of furniture? If you spotted something – concentrate on the area and see what happens if another car passes.
Some alternative explanations for shadow figures range from tricks of the eye with normal light play to optical illusions. If you ask a doctor or skeptic they may tell you that shadow figures can be caused by ocular distortions or floaters within the vitreous fluid of the eyes. Some alternative explanations include:
Pareidolia: Our peripheral vision is linked to an area of the brain that senses and recognizes patterns. It provides less detail than macular vision, which is within your direct line of sight. This can create a condition called pareidolia, which is when the brain incorrectly interprets natural patterns of light and shadow or texture as familiar patterns, such as faces and human figures. This is similar to a term we refer to as matrixing.
Hypnogogia: This is a medically-documented condition in which a person is between being conscious and asleep. During this condition, a person can be both aware of their surroundings and in a dream-like state where images from their subconscious are added.
Chemical-induced Hallucinations: The use of both prescribed medications and narcotics can produce hallucinations with shadow-people.
Abnormally High Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs): When people who are sensitive to EMF levels are subjected to high amounts, their brain can create auditory and visual hallucinations. We also believe however, that high EMF’s can provide an energy source for legitimate paranormal entities.
Neurological Conditions: Some people with diagnosed neurological conditions can have hallucinations of shadow figures.
If you determine that your shadow person really is just ordinary shadows… adjust your lighting.
If you just know that it is a real event not one induced by drugs or by being crazy, here are some steps to take to confront the unwanted entities.
Most researchers suspect that shadow people, if they are really there, are a manifestation of a ghost or haunting. If it’s a residual haunting — a non-intelligent “recording” on the environment — one way to possibly get rid of it is to alter the environment in some way.
If it’s an intelligent haunting — a true spirit that seems to behave and react in a way that indicates it has awareness — then there are some things you can try to make it go away.
Ignore the ghost. Like most people apparitions probably go away when ignored. Sometimes, however, this backfires and the ghostly activity increases because the spirit wants more attention.
Use humour. Since fear is your biggest enemy in these cases, try injecting some light humour. Most people have a sense of humour including the dead ones.
Listen and learn. Perhaps the spirit is trying to tell you something or communicate. Try to find out what that might be and do your best to resolve it.
Tell the ghost to leave. This tactic very often works quite well, especially when the time is taken to explain how and why having her stick around bothers bothers everyone and increases their stress. Like most living people, most ghosts are reasonable. This might even work in the case that the entities are inter-dimensional beings or time travellers; if they’re aware of you, they might listen.
If you feel that you have a real genuine Shadow Person, one important factor to stress is that you do not try to do this alone. Get some help, preferably from someone who has some real experience in these matters. There is no way to prove or disprove any theories about a phenomenon that is so mysterious, that happens so quickly and without warning. Science finds it virtually impossible to catalog or study such phenomena in any methodical way. All we can do, at present, is to document personal experiences and try to piece together what the shadow people phenomenon might be. Perhaps it’s an old mystery becoming more recognizable… perhaps it represents a doorway to and from different planes of existence… or perhaps it’s just shadows.
Awake & Aware Disclosure 2013: Educating Humanity On The UFO EBE Alien Extraterrestrial Presence
Awake & Aware Disclosure 2013: Educating Humanity On The UFO EBE Alien Extraterrestrial Presence
The Alien Presence
United Kingdom
As the end of 2012 passes and we step into 2013 humanity is rapidly waking up to a very real UFO presence, a presence which has been both officially and unofficially announced in several countries. UFO's were sighted in the skies of the UK every day in September 2012 with reports coming in from all areas of the country - and about time too, the UK is one country which desperately needs awakening!
Just as is already the case in many other countries, UFO sightings in the UK are starting to become routine.
In August 2011, a spokesperson for the UK's MoD (Ministry of Defense) stated on BBC News television "the only logical conclusion to explain UFO's is that they are vehicles of extraterrestrial origin with propulsion systems way more advanced than ours." - was this a sign of the times to come?
In the UK since the beginning of September UFO's have been sighted daily with reports coming in from London, Prestatyn, Wakefield, West Midlands, Grantham, Uddingston, Birmingham, Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex, Gateshead, West Yorshire, Whitstable, Bournemouth, Wokingham, Glasgow, West Bromwich, Cleveland, Warwick, Nottinghamshire, Scarborough, Somerset, Cumbria, Snowdonia, Gwent, Newcastle and more.
According to official UK government documents, which can be found at the National Archives website,the most significant event to happen in the UK was at Rendlesham Forest - also known as the Bentwaters incident. Lt Charles Halt and his men witnessed the incident and Halt took part in Dr Steven Greer's Disclosure project. The men claim to have seen a triangular UFO land in the nearby forest and some of them even had beams of light shot at their feet.
A declassified memo from the Aerial Material Command, which can also be found at the National Archives website, clearly states "The UFO phenomena is something real and not visionary or fictitious".
In July 2012 the MoD declassified documents relating to project Condign which includes details of how fatal Royal Air Force crashes happened after encountering UFO's. The MoD plan to declassify and publicly release all of their UFO documents by the end of 2012. In addition, many other countries also seem to be declassifying their UFO documents leading up to the end of 2012 - is humanity being prepped for disclosure?
It sure seems like it!
Let's take a look at disclosure in a few other countries:
China
Ufologists and researchers in China were left stunned in August 2010 when Professor Wang Sichao, of the Purple Mountain Astronomical Observatory went public and admitted that UFO's are real, that the observatory has observed ET craft on numerous occasions and that aliens are visiting Earth. The information was released in an official speech entitled 'China's UFO Truth'.
Wang Sichao made several key points stating that the aliens seem to be on research and development expeditions, the UFO's appear to be probes manned by robots/androids, the UFO's can travel at 80% the speed of light, they have been observed between 150 to 1500km above Earth, the UFO's possibly use nuclear fusion propulsion and Wang also believes that the alien craft use Earth's gravity to manoeuvre and stay aloft - a phenomena mentioned in the book Genesis For The New Space Age by John B. Leith.
The information was widely reported in the Chinese press though, not surprisingly, not so much in other countries.
Wang Sichao asserted that the aliens are not Gods and that, in the event of an attack, we would most likely be able to protect ourselves sufficiently - they have flaws. However, Wang also confirmed that there appears to be absolutely no hostile intent whatsoever on the part of the aliens. He also claimed that it's unlikely that the aliens would be interested in Earth's resources as they apparently have the technology to create their own resources.
The Chinese government suggested that they would only make an official announcement of extraterrestrial intelligence if America did so first, and that China would be second behind them.
In February 2012 China published this image of the back side of the moon that was taken by their Chang'e 2 lunar orbiter. The image seems to depict some kind of base on the dark side of the moon. In 1996 NASA officials had come forward at the National Press Club in Washington, DC to tell what they know about structures on the moon and claimed that NASA had airbrushed the images before releasing them to the public. When asked why secrecy was maintained, they responded by saying it was unknown how the public would react to knowing that there had potentially been, and may still be, an alien presence on our moon plus because of reasons beyond NASA.
In 2010 President of the Republic Kalmykia, Kirsan llyumzhinov, claimed to have personally had an alien encounter and after establishing the claims as fact, President Dmitry Metvedev launched an investigation. Kirsan llyumzhinov claims that he boarded an alien spacecraft and conversed with extraterrestrial beings who were visiting Earth to collect samples.
President Metvedev is said to have gone on to commission a group of researchers linked to the Murmansk Geophysical Institute to establish new guidelines for contact with extraterrestrial intelligence based on peace and co-operation. Amazingly, a significant boost in UFO activity happened including a giant UFO hurtling towards the ground in Irkutsk, Siberia. hundreds of government officials visited the area and the corpse of a dead alien was found which forced the Interior Ministry to launch a 'damage control' operation in an attempt to keep a lid on the alien presence.
Even more amazingly, before the hype over the incident had even settled down, a huge crop circle was discovered in Krasnodar - the location of a UFO fleet sighting that had happened (and been filmed) a few weeks prior. The Russian government sent a team of scientists to examine the crop circle to prove it's authenticity and to decipher what it means.
It has been suggested that UFO/alien disclosure may happen in Russia within the next twelve months. Russia have also released images of anomalies on the moon, as the images to the right taken by their Luna-9 orbiter show.
In April 2005 CEIFO (the Ecuadorian Commitee for the study of the UFO phenomenon) was formed, which saw the Ecuadorian military working alongside civilians to produce a credible report aimed at ending the secrecy surrounding the UFO presence. Initially, military officials were worried about the state of their reputations and careers upon going public with the information and so the president at the time, Rafael Correa, intervened and authorization was granted by the Minister of Defense.
Since the formation of the committee Ecuador have been deregulating and publicly releasing all of their UFO files and all documents relating to all future UFO activities are to remain unclassified.
Despite the US Secret Service attempting to infiltrate and suppress the Ecuadorian commitee, they were unsuccessful and UFO information is openly accessible and abundant in Ecuador. The image to the right is the best UFO photograph to have been officially released by any government worldwide so far. For more information see 'So You Don't Believe In UFO's? Ecuador Government Disagree!'
Brazil
Since 2009 the Brazilian government have been releasing significant UFO documents, photographs and videos. The Brazilian government openly acknowledges that UFO's seem to be from an 'external' source - meaning outside of Earth. Government documents relating to a military investigation of UFO's called Operation Saucer which took place in 1977 have been declassified and have proven to be very interesting.
2,000 pages, 500 photographs and 16 hours of film relating to Operation Saucer have now been declassified and was a 1977 investigation into a 'UFO attack' which happened at the northern state of Para. The Para 'UFO invasion' is a peculiar and significant event which affected many people. Although operation Saucer never officially ended, the FAB cancelled the research in 1978 with no official explanation.
After the investigation, according to Dr Carvalho (who actually witnessed the incident), she attended to 35 patients who claim to have been struck by beams of light from the sky. The victims were suffering from fatigue, dizziness, headaches, low blood pressure, anemia and some of them had burn marks where they had been hit by the beams. There were also puncture marks within the burnt areas in addition to permanent hair loss. After investigating the incident French scientist and ufologist Dr Jacques Vallee said that these kinds of incidents are not uncommon and that they deserve scientific study. Some witnesses claimed that they actually saw alien beings inside the craft shining in beams of light through their windows.
In 2004 high ranking Brazilian Air Force (FAB) officials released a limited number of Operation Saucer documents to ufologists for research. The documents explain how the Brazilian military interviewed UFO witnesses, took photographs of UFO's and even witnessed the UFO's themselves. They also admit that the FAB had been studying UFO's discreetly since 1954.
In the video to the right Brazilian Colonel Hollanda explains how he investigated and witnessed the incident. Shortly after releasing this information Hollanda was found dead, allegedly as a result of suicide. As with many UFO researchers, mysterious circumstances surround his death.
USA
As already mentioned, NASA officials came forward in 1996 to tell of what they know about structures on the moon. In 2001 Dr Steven Greer started the Disclosure project, a non-profit organization aimed at getting the truth out to the public. Over 500 top government and military officials have publicly stated their will to testify before congress that they are telling the truth about the UFO/EBE (Extraterrestrial Biological Entity) presence. Some of these officials are from high up levels in the Pentagon.
Despite briefing the Obama administration and the recent public petition campaigning for the disclosure of a UFO/EBE presence, the White House's official response was that there is no credible evidence of either a presence or a cover-up. However, the UK's MoD have already released documents confirming that they found evidence of the existence of MJ-12 or Majestic-12 - a small group of highly ranked people who were assigned to deal with the UFO/EBE presence - although they could (rather conveniently) find no further information on the subject.
Although the government claimed that the secret stamp on the leaked MJ-12 documents was not in use at that time, it was later discovered that yes the stamp was indeed used at that time on other official declassified documents proving that the government were lying. In addition, Ufologist Stanton Friedman met up with a woman referenced in the documents, Charlette Mann, to find out if the documents were accurate or a hoax. Charlette Mann confirmed that the 1941 UFO crash and retrieval referenced in the MJ-12 documents was indeed a very real incident and that she was threatened into keeping quiet.
After seeing the Disclosure project, Gary McKinnon hacked into several computer systems owned by USAF, DoD, US Army and the Pentagon. McKinnon was interviewed by project Camelot and claimed that he found evidence that NASA do indeed airbrush anomalies out of their images before going public. He also claims to have discovered an image of a huge alien spacecraft suspended above Earth's northern hemisphere and a list of non-terrestrial officers, relating to fleet-to-fleet transfers.
If the USA have indeed been reverse engineering extraterrestrial technology, as alleged, then it's reasonable to expect them to remain secretive on the issue. Dr Steven Greer is now in the process of producing a film-documentary in order to get the information out and hopes that the film-documentary will end the secrecy regarding the alien presence.
On 14th September 1994 a UFO was seen flying through the skies of Southern Africa by multiple witnesses. Two days later, on 16th September 1994, a UFO was then seen by as many as 62 South African school children landing next to some trees near their school. All 62 of the children claim they actually saw alien beings emerge from the craft.
UFO researcher Cynthia Hind went to investigate the incident and eventually all of the children were interviewed seperately by the late child psychiatrist Dr John E. Mack. The children were asked to draw pictures of what they saw. Each of the children were also questioned individually about the experience and Dr. Mack confirmed that there was no indication that he could tell of that any of the children were making the story up or lying.
The ages of the children who witnessed the incident were between 5/6 to 12 years old. One of the children explained how one of the alien entities had turned to look at her and seemed surprised to see her there. She also claims there was some kind of telepathic communication and that the alien entity seemed to be concerned about the welfare of planet Earth. They seemed to be worried about us cutting down trees and about the atmosphere.
None of the children had previously been exposed to the mainstream media and were therefore not very knowledgeable about the subject of UFO’s before the experience. All of their descriptions and illustrations are remarkably similar.
Even more fascinatingly, over 14 years later, the John E. Mack Institute have caught up with the children who witnessed the incident. All of them have confirmed that what they saw that day was very real and the John E. Mack Institute are now in the process of making a new up-to-date documentary about the remarkable incident.
Dr John E. Mack had previously carried out research into the alien abduction phenomena involving 200 people who were having such experiences. Mack carried out this research for a total of ten years and died in September 2004 after being ran over by a drunk driver. Many people believe that the cause of Mack’s death is questionable.
Can 62 South African school-children and all of their teachers be capable of perpetrating such an elaborate hoax?
Personally, I have no doubt that the incident was very real.

National UFO Alert: Seven states report 287 May cases - Openminds.tv
The National UFO Alert Rating System has been updated for June 2014, with California, Florida, New York, Texas, Arizona, Ohio and North Carolina moving to a UFO Alert 2 or 3 as the highest reporting states during the month of May 2014, filed with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
California was the leading high-reporting state in May with 102 cases, up from 80 April cases, 103 March cases, 59 February cases, and 102 January cases – the single state listed as an Alert 2 with 100 or more cases. The other top reporting states had 25 or more cases and are an Alert 3. Those states in a UFO Alert 4 category with 13 or more reports include: Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Missouri, Indiana, Washington, Oregon, Tennessee, and New Jersey.
All other states move to a UFO Alert 5 category with lower numbers of UFO activity. The Watch States – with 10 or more cases – are Alabama, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Oklahoma, New Hampshire and Colorado.
MUFON released May statistics June 1, where the total number of reported UFO sightings is listed by state. The entire country was moved back to the lowest alert level – UFO Alert 5.
California takes the lead with 102 cases; Florida, 46; New York, 31; Texas, 30; Arizona, 27; Ohio, 26; and North Carolina, 25.
Those states with 13 or more reports, the next reporting tier level, are a UFO Alert 4 status: Michigan, 24; Illinois, 23; Pennsylvania, 21; Georgia, 19; Missouri, 19; Indiana, 15; Washington, 15; Oregon, 14; Tennessee, 13; and New Jersey, 13.
Our Watch States this month are – with 10 reports or more: Alabama, 12; Wisconsin, 11; Kentucky, 11; Oklahoma, 10; New Hampshire, 10; and Colorado, 10.
The sphere remains the most-reported UFO shape with 129 cases; down from 150 April cases, 131 March cases, 91 February cases; and 240 January cases. Other shape reports include: Circle, 81; Triangle, 78; Star-Like, 73; Other, 68; Disc, 61; Unknown, 57; Fireball, 38; Oval, 32; N/A, 25; Cylinder, 18; Cigar, 17; Boomerang, 15; Flash, 13; Egg, 11; Bullet/Missile, 11; Blimp, 6; Diamond, 5; Cone, 4; Chevron, 3; Teardrop, 3; and Saturn-like, 2.
The object’s distance from the witness includes: Less than 100 feet, 117 cases; 101 to 500 feet, 120 cases; 501 feet to one mile, 163 cases; over one mile, 193 cases; unknown, 242; and no value stated, 26.
In addition, there were “24 landings, hovering, or takeoffs reported and 1 entity observed.”
The most interesting UFO reports do not necessarily come from high reporting states – but those states with higher numbers do account for some of the most interesting evidence to study. While UFO sightings seem to pop up randomly around the country, this list is meant to offer a small insight into where Americans are filing reports.
Wetenschappers van het Harvard-Smithosian Centrum voor Astrofysica (CfA) hebben de "Godzilla onder de Aardes" ontdekt. Het gaat om een Mega-Aarde die uit gesteente bestaat en een tot voorheen onbekend type planeet is.
Met behulp van de Kepler-ruimtetelescoop stootten wetenschappers rond Xavier Dumusque van het CfA in het sterrenbeeld Draak op een object dat de naam Kepler-10c kreeg. Het bleek een planeet buiten ons zonnestelsel te zijn die zeventien keer de massa van de Aarde heeft.
Voordien werd aangenomen dat planeten van dergelijke omvang zich in een dichte atmosfeer van waterstof en helium hullen, een beetje zoals "onze" gasreuzen Uranus en Neptunus die eenzelfde massa hebben als het nieuw gevonden object.
Godzilla Maar Kepler-10c was tot grote verrassing van de wetenschappers geen gasreus, maar een gesteenteplaneet. Meteen is een nieuw type van planeten gevonden.
Het gaat niet meer om een Super-Aarde, de term die astronomen hanteren voor planeten met tot veertien keer de massa van de Aarde. Kepler-10c is een Mega-Aarde."Dit is de Godzilla onder de Aardes", klinkt het bij Dimitar Sasselov van het Cfa. De diameter bedraagt nagenoeg 30.000 km, zowat 2,3 keer zoveel als die van de Aarde.
De exoplaneet omcirkelt samen met een lava-wereld, een kleinere, maar zeer hete planeet, een op de Zon lijkende ster. Aanwijzingen van leven zijn er op de gesteentereus evenwel niet gevonden.
Mega-aardes De vorsers gaan er op grond van simulaties van uit dat er nog bij andere sterren Mega-Aardes kunnen ontstaan.
Dit roestige deksel is amper 23 centimeter in doorsnede, maar het bedekt enkele van de grootste geheimen van de aarde. Het gat onder het deksel reikt 12.262 meter diep. Het is het diepste gat ooit gemaakt door mensen, in een mislukte poging van de Russen om tot het middelpunt van de aarde te boren.
De 'space race' tussen de Russen en de Amerikanen tijdens de Koude Oorlog is alom bekend. Maar onder de grond speelde zich een zelfde rivaliteit af, die de krantenkoppen niet haalde maar daarom niet minder competitief was: een wedloop om naar het middelpunt van de aarde te boren. In een poging om de Verenigde Staten hierin te verslaan, creëerde de Sovjet-Unie tussen 1970 en 1994 het 'superdiep boorgat van Kola'.
U kan zich vragen stellen bij de drijfveren van de Russen, maar het project op het Kola-schiereiland gaf wel heel wat geheimen prijs over de samenstelling van de grond onder onze voeten. Voor het gat bestond, moesten geologen zich behelpen met seismische golven om veronderstellingen te doen over de samenstelling van de aardkorst. Een methode die niet doeltreffend bleek.
Water Wetenschappers hadden bijvoorbeeld nooit kunnen vermoeden dat zich op een diepte van drie tot zes kilometer onder het oppervlak water bevond in het versplinterde gesteente. Hoe dat water daar komt, wordt nu nog onderzocht. Verondersteld wordt dat het bestaat uit waterstof- en zuurstofatomen die uit het gesteente geperst zijn door de enorme druk. De boeiendste ontdekking van het project waren microscopisch kleine planktonfossielen van meer dan twee miljard jaar oud op een diepte van 6,5 kilometer. 24 prehistorische soorten waren ingekapseld in organische verbindingen die op een of andere manier de extreme druk en temperatuur konden overleven.
Hitte Het laatste mysterie dat het boorgat onthulde, was meteen ook de reden waarom de werkzaamheden gestaakt moesten worden. Vanaf een diepte van drie kilometer begon de temperatuur gestaag te stijgen. Op 12 kilometer piekten de temperaturen tot 180 graden Celsius; bij zulke hitte werd de boor onbruikbaar.
De afstand tot het middelpunt van de aarde wordt geschat op zo'n 6.400 kilometer. De Russen kwamen dus lang niet in de buurt van hun doel. Het project is officieel afgesloten in 2005 en het gat werd dichtgelast met een metalen dekseltje. De vele mysteries die het bedekt, worden tot op vandaag nog steeds bestudeerd.
Complex leven op 100 miljoen planeten in de Melkweg?
Complex leven op 100 miljoen planeten in de Melkweg?
In de Melkweg zijn mogelijk 100 miljoen planeten met complex leven te vinden, zo blijkt uit een nieuwe studie. Het enige probleem is dat de planeten te ver van de aarde staan om eventuele levensvormen te bestuderen.
Onderzoekers van de Universiteit van Texas in El Paso bestudeerden 1000 exoplaneten. Ze stelden van iedere planeet de dichtheid, temperatuur, chemische samenstelling, leeftijd en afstand tot de moederster vast. Op basis van de gegevens gaf hoofdonderzoeker Louis Irwin iedere planeet een waardecijfer van 0 tot 1,0. Deze index is gebaseerd op eigenschappen waarvan wordt aangenomen dat ze belangrijk zijn voor meercellige levensvormen.
Astronomen zien Jupitermaan Europa als een goede kandidaat voor buitenaards leven. Onder het ijs van de maan bestaan waarschijnlijk oceanen. Het onderzoeksteam van Irwin heeft berekend dat 1 tot 2 procent van de exoplaneten nog hoger scoort op de index. Bij 10 miljard sterren in de Melkweg en gemiddeld één planeet per ster, komt dat neer op tenminste 100 miljoen planeten.
Er is uiteraard geen garantie dat de onderzochte exoplaneten daadwerkelijk complex leven herbergen. Wel zijn de omstandigheden er geschikt voor leven. De wetenschappers verwachten op de planeten leven aan te treffen dat complexer is dan een microbe. De planeten die het hoogst scoren op de index staan tegelijkertijd het verst van ons af. Eén van meest dichtbijgelegen planeten draait op 20 lichtjaar rond Gliese 581.
Lees meer over het onderzoek in het tijdschrift Challenges. Planeten met de hoogste scores zijn veelal warmer, groter en ouder dan de aarde, dus de zoektocht naar complex of intelligent leven op aardachtige planeten of leven zoals we dat hier kennen is waarschijnlijk te beperkt, besloot Irwin.
Be sure to watch this video, especially from around 4 minutes on, keep a good watch the rest of the video. Kanney ran out of battery time at the end, but he got sufficient capture of this fellow staying very still. The thing to remember in the woods is that Sasquatch depend on the “stiff as a tree” posture to show no motion that will catch your eye. They hope to blend in with the trunks of the trees and be dismissed as our eyes scan back and forth over the forest undergrowth.
You might call this the “Jurassic Park T-Rex invisibility maneuver.” I often review different researcher's work to see who has commonsense, curiosity, intelligence,and wisdom. Freddie Kanney caught my eye when I saw his videos and realized this man from my home state knows his woods and knows how to study and observe everything.
Most people go into the woods searching for Bigfoot as their target of attention, but you do not find a Bigfoot before first looking for the signs and signals he leaves that he is habitating these woods. Freddie has more horse sense in this field than most folks I know. So, he's earned my respect and attention as a fellow research with merit. He not only captured this (here's a still shot below), but he went back with new batteries to show just what was or wasn't there. People often bellyache about blobsquatch videos, but true researchers show the conditions so you can see a comparison of what should be there and what isn't now.
I took the liberty of zooming in on the head and the light hitting the tuft of hair that appears auburn.
Later in the film at the end, Freddie zooms in on it again – hair has moved-
In fact, if you look at his left shoulder (I say “his” but don't know the sex) you an see what looks like auburn mane hair just like our hair, falling onto the shoulder in a swath that is picked up by the light and a bright auburn.
Here's his follow-up video and I recommend you follow his channel on YouTube. I learn more watching his videos than a hundred chatty forums filled with egos and boasting.
An encounter with a UFO with occupants occurred in Socorro, New Mexico on April 24, 1964. The experiencer was a police officer name Lonnie Zamora. This encounter is one of the best documented events with physical trace evidence. Until this incident, reports from persons claiming to have seen small beings in connection with UFOs on the ground (CE-III or Close Encounters of the Third Kind) were looked upon with considerable disfavor within the UFO research community. After the landing near Socorro, New Mexico, confirmed by a second reputable witness, attitudes changed. The years following this event produced an unprecedented flow of reports of high credibility and strangeness:
Lonnie Zamora’s close encounter on April 24, 1964 continues to be one of the most profound UFO events in the modern history of the phenomena. To this day it remains a case in which all the facts involved support the witness’ claims and it is this kind of case that makes the UFO phenomenon such an enduring mystery. Lonnie Zamora saw a highly unusual device of unknown origin, what can only be described as a “craft” of some kind, and he reported seeing what he believes were occupants. Despite the controversy which often surrounds the subject of UFOs, the incident at Socorro remains an example of what the UFO phenomenon is, in fact, all about.
The following information is based on facts I have gathered from various sources including conversations in person and by telephone with Mr. Lonnie Zamora. This is not intended to be a complete report on Lonnie Zamora’s experience, but is intended to provide a source for some rash details about the case and to clarify others. More than anything else I have made every effort to ensure that what is here is the truth. I also owe a great deal of gratitude to Mr. Ray Stanford, one of the most thorough and knowledgeable investigators I have met. He arrived in Socorro within four days of the incident and authored the definitive book on Zamora’s experience and the subsequent investigation. I recommend it to anyone seriously interested in this case and in the subject of UFO’s in general. Socorro “Saucer” in a Pentagon Pantry is available in major libraries but can be obtained from the author.
Socorro is a small town located about an hours drive south of Albuquerque, New Mexico. In April 1964, Lonnie Zamora was a police officer with the town and late in the afternoon on April, 24th he had just dropped his pursuit of a speeding car to go check on what he thought might have been an explosion on the outskirts of town. Thinking that a small shack containing dynamite might have exploded, he made his way up a rough embankment and then moved slowly along a narrow gravel road that wound beside a small arroyo (a shallow dry gully). From this first more distant vantage point he saw what he thought might have been an overturned car down in the arroyo and radioed back to his headquarters that he was proceeding to check out this ‘vehicle’. It was from here that he saw what he described as possibly two children or small adults, and he noted that one appeared startled at his approach and seemed to “jump somewhat”.
He moved further along the gravel road and finally stopped his car at the point where he believed he had previously seen the vehicle in the arroyo. It was at this point that he heard what he later could describe as several loud “thumps” or “slams”, similar to metal hitting metal. As he left his patrol car and proceeded towards the gully, he had not gone more than a few steps before he had a full view of an elongated oval shaped object on “girder-like” legs. In that instant a loud roar and bluish flame shot out of the underside of the object and it began to rise. Zamora did not hesitate…he hit the ground thinking it was about to explode, then got up running and jumped down on the other side of the gravel road. He heard a whirring noise and watched the object rise up out of the arroyo, the legs he saw moments before were no longer apparent. He noted that the object had risen to perhaps 20 feet above the bottom of the gully when suddenly the sound stopped completely. There was no more flame visible and he watched as the now-silent vehicle moved off parallel to the terrain picking up speed as it left the area. He watched it move off into the distance and it eventually disappeared from view.
Almost immediately upon the object having left the area, State Police Sargeant Sam Chavez arrived having overheard Zamora who had radioed wildly to his dispatcher hoping that someone else might be able to see the object. Together they noted the evidence left in the arroyo…a half burned bush, four angular impressions in the sandy soil where the “legs” had been, and several small footprints and other impressions.
From an oil painting based on photographs taken of the actual landing site. The image portrays the object just as it began to lift off and from a viewpoint near where Mr. Zamora reportedly stood. Mr. Zamora has seen this illustration and stated that it is a good representation of what he observed, though he felt that the “legs” might have been extended slightly further than is portrayed. The dimensions presented however are taken from both the witnesses description and the exactmeasurements provided by investigators of the impressions in the soil.
Ever since the first report that Zamora had seen some type of symbol on the side of the craft there had been some confusion about just what that symbol was. He had drawn and described this symbol to several people soon after the incident, and what appeared to be discrepancies in the description had arisen from various sources. There does appear to be some support for believing that the symbol that was widely circulated early on may have actually been a variation of the actual one. The idea that a substitute might have been circulated by the investigative personnel from the Air Force or other governmental agencies as a way to guard against copycat reports has some merit. Though the actual shape may not be ultimately important to the overall case I did make an effort to try to obtain an honest description of just what Zamora saw. In one of our telephone conversations he clarified to me that he had never been told -not- to relate the actual shape and he gave me a description which I realized was slightly different from what I had heard and seen before. I was curious about this and shortly afterward I sent him several pages of small sketches which covered various details of his sighting. I included several variations of this symbol including one that matched what I had seen in other places and one that matched what I thought he had described to me. I asked him to merely place a check mark by whichever sketch matched his recollection. Below are several sections of the sheets I sent him, and his check marks are visible. But on the section showing the symbols, he was nice enough to actually redraw what he had seen.
Of all the evidence that could be presented to support the contention that what Lonnie Zamora saw was something totally unexplained, perhaps nothing is more compelling than this brief article. It appeared in the formerly classified CIA publication entitled “Studies in Intelligence” from the fall of 1966. It was written by Hector Quintanilla, Jr., the former head of the Air Force’s Project Bluebook.
It gives a history and methodology of the Air Force’s investigation of UFO’s, and after presenting many of the prosaic explanations that had been encountered, he concluded his article with a synopsis of a “Policeman’s Report” in which he described the Socorro incident. One short quote from this article in itself makes a profound statement about the reality of some UFO reports.
“There is no doubt that Lonnie Zamora saw an object which left quite an impression on him. There is also no question about Zamora”s reliability. He is a serious police officer, a pillar of his church, and a man well versed in recognizing airborne vehicles in his area. He is puzzled by what he saw, and frankly, so are we. This is the best-documented case on record, and still we have been unable, in spite of thorough investigation, to find the vehicle or other stimulus that scared Zamora to the point of panic.”
This document was approved for release on January, 2, 1981 and is available to anyone under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act.
It is my hope that this information is useful to anyone wanting to know more about the subject of unidentified flying objects. Even I find it easy to become disillusioned at times when I find that almost all the readily available information is made up of fantastic claims made by people who offer no valid proof. However, anyone who looks closely will be able to find that there are many cases, like the Socorro incident, that clearly indicate something physically real, and of a high degree of strangeness, is being seen by honest, reliable witnesses. – Chris Lambright – CUFON
At about 5:45 p.m. on Friday, April 24, 1964 Socorro policeman Lonnie Zamora was chasing a speeding car when his attention was drawn to a peculiar sight in the sky. “At this time I heard a roar and saw a flame in the sky to the southwest some distance away.” Thinking it might be an explosion connected with a building known to contain explosives, he forgot about the car chase, and sped off in the direction of the UFO.
The next time he saw it, it was on the ground, and from a distance it looked like a car that had overturned. As he drove closer, he could see that it resembled a large egg, sitting on one end and supported by slender legs. He stated:
“I saw two people in white coveralls very close to the object. One of these persons seemed to turn and look straight at my car and seemed startled -seemed to quickly jump somewhat. I don’t recall noting any particular shape or possibly any hats or headgear. These persons appeared normal in shape -but possibly they were small adults or small kids.”
As he drove closer, a small hill blocked his view of the object, though at one point he heard a noise like a door closing. When he could again see the object, there was no one near it. He drove as close as the rough terrain would permit, stopped, parked his police cruiser and got out, intending to walk toward the craft. At this point “I heard about two or three loud ‘thumps,’ like someone possibly hammering or shutting a door or doors hard. These ‘thumps’ were possibly a second or less apart.”
The white-suited individuals were not seen after he heard the thumps. As he started towards the object, it began to roar:
“It started at a low frequency, but quickly the roar rose in frequency and in loudness… Flames were under the object… light blue and at bottom was a sort of orange color.”
Assuming it might be about to explode, Zamora quickly hid behind his cruiser for protection. The roaring then stopped and he looked up to see it hovering a few feet above the ground. “It was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop.” The vehicle then moved away slowly, gathering speed as it headed toward the dynamite shack, which it cleared by a few feet.
At this time, Zamora was joined by a police sergeant who watched the craft fly away into the distance. Zamora and the sergeant then walked to where it had been parked, and noted charred and singed grass, underbrush and imprints in the ground corresponding to where the vehicle had landed.
Within hours, Zamora was interviewed by U.S. Army Captain Richard T. Holder, Up-Range Commander of the White Sands Missile Range, and by FBI Special Agent Arthur Byrnes, Jr., the latter requesting that the FBI’s involvement be kept secret. Zamora described the object to them:
“It was smooth – no windows or doors. As the roar started, it was still on or near the ground. There was red lettering of some type. The insignia was about 2.5 feet (75 cm.) high and about 2 feet (60 cm.) wide. It was in the middle of the object. The object was… aluminum-white.”
He then drew a sketch of the object with the red “insignia”: half of a circle over an inverted V with a vertical line inside and horizontal line below.
A day or two later, Dr. J. Allen Hynek arrived to investigate the report for the Air Force’s Project Blue Book. In addition to questioning Zamora, Hynek measured and photographed the landing site. He located what appeared to be impressions in the ground made by the landing gear, as well as several small footprints.
The case received rapid and extensive press coverage, and the Air Force was under pressure to explain it as something less momentous than a landed spacecraft. Among the explanations considered and rejected were a rancher’s helicopter and an experimental NASA lunar lander.
In the end, Project Blue Book declared the report “unsolved,” and Major Hector Quintanilla, the project’s final director, stated that there is no doubt that Lonnie Zamora saw an object which left quite an impression on him:
“There is also no question about Zamora’s reliability. He is a serious police officer, a pillar of his church, and a man well versed in recognizing airborne vehicles in his area. He is puzzled by what he saw, and frankly, so are we. This is the best-documented case on record, and still we have been unable, in spite of thorough investigation, to find the vehicle or other stimulus that scared Zamora to the point of panic.” – UFO Briefing Document: The Best Available Evidence

Time: evening
An officer worker named Mitsugu Matsumoto and his wife Junko returned home for the evening and upon opening the front door, the Matsumotos were confronted with a strange smell inside their home. Inside, they found dozens of small, wet footprints around the front door and in the hallway, bathroom and two Tatami rooms. At first they suspected a burglar, but they soon realized nothing had been stolen. The police briefly surveyed the house, but found nothing except a floor soiled by 30 footprints, each measuring about 7cm long and 6 cm wide, and having 4 or 5 toes. To Matsumoto, the footprints did not look human, nor did they appear to belong to any animal he could imagine. Later that night, as Mrs. Matsumoto was putting laundry away, she discovered an unusual orange stain on some clothing. The next morning, as Matsumoto inspected the house more closely, he discovered a deposit of orange liquid on the portable stereo in the Tatami room. He took a sample to the local public health center for analysis, and the results indicated the liquid had extremely high iron content and a chemical composition resembling spring water. Troubled by the incident, Matsumoto decided to visit a shaman. After listening to Matsumoto’s story, the shaman encouraged him not to worry, explaining that the Kappa indigenous to the nearby swamp enjoyed playing the occasional prank on local residents. The Kappa were harmless, the shaman told him. Later Matsumoto tried using detergent; paint thinner and gasoline to remove the footprints and orange stains, but nothing seemed to work.

A squid fisherman named Ryu Shirozaki was walking home from the local pier after work. As he passed near the Kuta River, he came upon a small group of children playing in the water’s edge. While it was not entirely uncommon to encounter people fishing in the river at night, it was rather surprising to see youngsters there. As Shirozaki approached the children, he was struck by how bizarre they appeared in the moonlight. He could make out swarthy faces, unusually spindly arms and legs, and glistening skin. Suspicious, Shirozaki called out to them as he neared, but they seemed startled and quickly disappeared into the water. The next morning when he returned to the same spot, Shirozaki discovered a set of moist, teardrop-shaped footprints on the nearby pavement. The prints, which appeared to consist of a slimy substance that had begun to coagulate under the hot morning sun, stretched for about 20 meters. Each footprint measured 22 cm (about 10in long) and 12 cm (5 in) wide, and they were spaced about 50 to 60 cm (about 2 ft) apart. Shirozaki and a few curious onlookers immediately suspected the footprints belonged to a Kappa. People began to gather around as the news spread quickly through town, and all agreed the prints belonged to a Kappa. In the minds of many residents, the footprints confirmed the existence of the river imps they knew through local legends. When police forensic investigators arrived on the scene, they determined that the slimy footprints consisted of an unknown secretion. They took a sample to the lab for analysis, but the results unfortunately turned out to be inconclusive because the sample was too small. The police eventually dropped their investigation, and the mystery of the slimy footprints was never solved.

A group of musicians (including Jimi Hendrix) driving back to Manhattan were stranded in a heavy blizzard and had gotten stuck in a heavy drift that reached the hood of their vehicle. It was bitter cold. The road ahead of them suddenly lit up, as a bright phosphorescent object, cone shaped, like a capsule landed in the snow about 100 feet up a…head. It stood on a tripod landing gear. Before any of the stunned occupants of the vehicle could move, a door opened on the side of the craft and an entity stepped out. He stood eight-feet tall, his skin was yellowish, and instead of eyes, the creature had slits. His forehead came to a point, and his head ran straight to his chest, leaving the impression that he had no neck. The being proceeded to float to the ground and glided towards the trapped occupants of the van. The snow seemed to melt in the wake of the creature. His body seemed to generate tremendous heat, so much so that as it came across a small rise, the snow disappeared around in all directions. In a matter of what seemed like seconds, the being came over to the right hand side of the van, where Hendrix sat and looked right through the window. According to other witnesses at the scene the creature seemed to be communicating telepathically with Hendrix. Immediately the interior of their vehicle began to heat up. The heat coming from the being evaporated the snow enough to free their imprisoned van. The being glide behind the van and the snowdrift by now had completely vanished. Turning the ignition the driver gunned the engine and drove away at high speed. As they looked back they could see the road filling in with snow again. The object was at the same instant lifting off like a rocket from a launching pad.

Time: 07:30 a.m.
A total of 7 witnesses including the main witness M D were driving to a hunting expedition in two cars: a Peugeot 306 driven by M D and a Lancia with J M being the only occupant and his dog. The meeting place was a location called “La Guibarderie” near the little hamlet of “Le Ruel” not far from Haravilliers. Independently, M K was on his way to the meeting place in his Mercedes. The weather conditions were exceptionally clear and many stars were visible, as the two cars approached the parking area at the hunting preserve, their occupants see through their windshield a bright illumination in the sky in the horizon. Soon a huge black round object (30 to 45 m in diameter) comes towards them, slowly gliding only about 20 meters above the ground. The first thing M D notices are a series of large projectors disposed on 6 to 7 light ramps, like those of a stadium. Measuring 5 x 3 m, each ramp contained red, green and yellow spotlights. The beams do not light up the surrounding area. They resemble those of a Christmas tree decoration. Inexplicably, M D does not stop the car and the Peugeot continues to approach the location where the object is hovering. M D feels compelled to lower the glass on the driver’s seat side to get a better look. As the car passes just beneath the object, a bit on the left side, he can see a dull gray platform with a brighter octagonal contraption in the center (about 15 m) resembling a screw with a middle round aperture (diameter 6 m) punched with 8 regularly disposed exhaust type portholes about 1m in diameter. Next, a beam of light comes down to the ground, and then the 4 Peugeot occupants see three green, red and yellow beams converging on the parked Mercedes. There follows a gap of 3 minutes during which, nobody remembers what occurred, and the five witnesses find themselves 1200m father from their original position without M D remembering having driven the distance.
The object is no longer in sight. The two cars then meet in the parking lot and the Mercedes driver confirms that he had been also bathed in the light-beams that poured down on the Mercedes. The three cars then resumed their journey to the meeting place, everybody feeling a bit dazed. The six friends did not mention the incident to the other 25 hunters in the party. On January 15 M D begins to suffer from acute conjunctivitis, which led him to consult an eye doctor. Around April 20 M D’s memory begins to return little by little. He recalls having been levitated into the hovering UFO through the central hole. Inside he was confronted by a humanoid figure about 1.20m in height, completely covered in a diving suit, his face was hidden behind a metallic cylindrical dull-black helmet. This helmet was about 42-43 cm high and about 32-33 cm in width. It had a curved top, two round holes were the eyes should have been and a wide horizontal double row of “piano keys” resembling a row of straight white teeth, making it look like a mouth, which remained closed at all times. This gave the mask a somewhat shamanic and sinister appearance. At one point the entity said something like “Tobro”, which M D assumed could be the name of his place of origin. Although he only remembers having seen this one creature, he had the impression that there were other unseen entities in the object. He was placed on a table but does not remember having been subjected to a physical examination. A pale white-beige light that seemed to emanate from all directions illuminated the room. A strange putrid odor permeated the room. M D thinks that an implant was inserted into his body. Later it was revealed that a gamekeeper located not far from where the men were to meet testified having heard “the sound of heavy engines, not unlike that of a Boeing 747” a few minutes later he saw a big round dark object emitting three colored beams of light.

Engineer Edwin Fontanes Jr. his son, father and 3 friends had gone to a nearby river to catch some freshwater shrimp. The whole time there they could hear branches cracking around them and strange whistling sounds from an unknown source. Later that night as they were returning his son and father were walking at about 50 feet ahead of the rest of the group. At one point the gra…ndfather stumbled and when his grandson attempted to pick him up he again heard the sound of branches breaking nearby. He pointed his flashlight in the direction of the sound, and saw what at first he took to be the trunk of a palm tree, curious he set the flashlight at a brighter level and pointed again at the “trunk”. At this point he realized that it was not a palm trunk but a strange very tall creature. He described the creature as about 7ft tall, with brown skin, it had a pointy head with two protrusions and in the shoulder area it had what appeared to be one sharp protrusion on each side. On its chest area it had what appeared to be some vertical marks, close to the waist area. It had three claw-like fingers and was very thin. From the knees down it appeared to be “backwards” as oppose to humans. According to Edwin Jr. the creature stared at him briefly and then ran away without moving its arms.
I was reclining in my lawn chair on my back patio, when a searchlight caught my eye. Since I live within a couple of miles from Hill Air Force Base, I didn’t think much of it, except that only rarely do I see the base’s control tower light. I moved into a shadowed area of my backyard, on my lawn, and gazed skyward. I positioned myself so that I did not have any street lights or house lights that would have obscured my night vision. I waited and watched for the AF Base control tower light to return, but it never did return. Then I saw the crafts. They were traveling in a straight line, directly above me, approximately 500 feet from the ground, flying in formation, traveling in a straight North direction. There were 3 objects, flying in a “V” formation; all objects appeared to be either grayish or gray/white in color. Each craft was shaped like an “X”, or more correctly, like a cross. My best description of these crafts would be something like this: place 4 petals from a daisy, making a cross, with the base of all petals melting together. I am estimating that these crafts were traveling in excess of 150 mph, mainly because of the short duration of my sighting. These crafts were NOT birds, they made NO sound, they DID travel in formation, and they were flying faster than any bird or any single engine airplane that I have ever seen. It appeared to me, that almost immediately after I lost sight of the trio, I saw a small flash of light in the general area that the crafts seemed to be headed. I was and am completely, stone-cold sober, and am not under the influence of any medications. What I saw was real.
