Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    In België had je vooral BUFON of het Belgisch UFO-Netwerk, dat zich met UFO's bezighoudt. BEZOEK DUS ZEKER VOOR ALLE OBJECTIEVE INFORMATIE , enkel nog beschikbaar via Facebook en deze blog. Verder heb je ook het Belgisch-Ufo-meldpunt en Caelestia, die prachtig, doch ZEER kritisch werk leveren, ja soms zelfs héél sceptisch... Voor Nederland kan je de mooie site www.ufowijzer.nl bezoeken van Paul Harmans. Een mooie site met veel informatie en artikels. MUFON of het Mutual UFO Network Inc is een Amerikaanse UFO-vereniging met afdelingen in alle USA-staten en diverse landen. MUFON's mission is the analytical and scientific investigation of the UFO- Phenomenon for the benefit of humanity... Je kan ook hun site bekijken onder www.mufon.com. Ze geven een maandelijks tijdschrift uit, namelijk The MUFON UFO-Journal. Since 02/01/2020 is Pieter ex-president (=voorzitter) of BUFON, but also ex-National Director MUFON / Flanders and the Netherlands. We work together with the French MUFON Reseau MUFON/EUROP. ER IS EEN NIEUWE GROEPERING DIE ZICH BUFON NOEMT, MAAR DIE HEBBEN NIETS MET ONZE GROEP TE MAKEN. DEZE COLLEGA'S GEBRUIKEN DE NAAM BUFON VOOR HUN SITE... Ik wens hen veel succes met de verdere uitbouw van hun groep. Zij kunnen de naam BUFON wel geregistreerd hebben, maar het rijke verleden van BUFON kunnen ze niet wegnemen...

    Bug or a UFO over Taunton, MA?

    Location: Taunton, Massachusetts
    Date: March 2016

    Witness report: Taking pictures of the lines that plans now leave, I saw this in one of three photos. Please expand pictures. It’s only in one picture. But they were mili seconds apart. Looks like a satellite but we know it can’t be. I live in Taunton Massachusetts, which is located in the center of the Bridgewater triangle. If you have never heard of it Hooke will help.

    Amazing footage of a UFO over Massachusetts 29-Mar-2016

    Massachusetts-ufo

    Check out this interesting video of a strange craft flying at low altitude in the night sky above Massachusetts. This was filmed yesterday, on 30th March 2016.

    Witness report: Driving towards the Village Commons in South Hadley, my friend and I could see two bright lights in the sky that kind of looked like head lights. They were just sitting in the same spot for a very long time. We could see them about a half a mile away. As we got towards the center of the village commons, it looked as though the ufo was now over us. The two lights that we had previously seen turned into three very bright lights. As we were freaking out I had climbed into the backseat of the car and stuck my head out the window. I could see the three very bright lights in a triangle shape and as I was looking at them, I could make out the circular shape of the craft. It looked very low and gigantic. Not long after it just sat above us and hovered, it started to move very fast and get far away. At this point, I needed to head home but my friend who witnessed it with me, continued to search for it after I left. She found it again on 202 in South Hadley and followed it all the way to Memorial Drive in Chicopee. She called me freaking out saying how close she was to it and that she was going to pul over to try and capture a picture. As soon as she parked, she said she was underneath it like we were before, and then the phone started to act up. I started to lose her and eventually our call dropped. She called me back freaking out telling me she captured pictures and a video. I strongly believe that I saw a ufo tonight. You can watch the video and decide for yourself whether or not you believe my story.

    Hear Carl Sagan discuss aliens and the Bible in new Blank on Blank

    Carl Sagan, the iconic scientist behind the original Cosmos TV show, may be gone now, but he left behind voluminous archives of writings and interviews. One such interview was recently sampled for the latest episode of PBS’ Blank on Blank series. Taken from a 1985 interview Sagan did with renowned journalist Studs Terkel, it touches mainly on the possibility of extraterrestrial life, and the differences between science and religion.

    “You take those together - lots of places, lots of organic matter, lots of time, and it seems very hard to believe that our poultry little planet is the only one that’s inhabited,” Sagan told Terkel, noting that Earth is located far off in the “boondocks” of the Milky Way galaxy.

    Terkel mentioned similarities between science and religion. Sagan acknowledged that both disciplines were after the same thing (“the question of our origins”) but was unsparing in pointing out the scientific flaws of the Bible.

    “The natural world around us shows that the Earth, for example, is about 4.6 billion years old, nothing like 6,000 years old. So a literal reading of the Bible is simply mistaken. It’s just wrong,” Sagan said. “As a work of science, it’s flawed. It’s the science of the Babylonians in the sixth century B.C., and we’ve learned something since then.”

    Watch the episode, complete with illustrations of Sagan’s aliens and planets, below.

    Rendleshams Moment Of TRUTH – And The 1000’s Of Top Secret UFO Photos To Be Published?

    Alien in Space

    It has recently come to light that a former US Naval officer who claims his secrecy agreement with the American Government has now expired is vowing to lift the lid on thousands of top-secret UFO files he claims to have seen – and there isn’t anything that the US Government can do about it.

    The man, who says he was a third-class petty officer at the Naval Telecommunications Centre within NAS Moffett Field from February 1986 to October 1989, also claims he can shed light on the mysterious mass-UFO sighting involving military personal in 1980.

    This man has yet to be named, but a former British MoD UFO investigator confirmed recently that this man is complexly genuine source, creating a flurry of excitement throughout the planet.

    Nick Pope, who was put in charge by the British MoD with investigating UK UFO cases, including the Rendlesham incident, said:

    I’ve actually had some personal communication with this individual, and have no doubts about his background”.

    “It’s clear from the language he uses and the information he has that he’s a genuine insider.”

    But Mr Pope then went on and suddenly stopped short of encouraging the whistleblower to come out into the open – as if he felt he had a duty to NOT encourage the matter.  He said:

    While my own secrecy oath means I can’t encourage anyone to divulge classified information without proper authority, I’m obviously very interested in his story.

    “As I conducted the MoD’s cold case review of the Rendlesham Forest incident I’m particularly keen to hear about anything that would shed new light on this case.” Nick said.

    Former MOD Nick Pope

    Former MOD Nick Pope

    The now famous Rendlesham legend has been dubbed Britain’s very own Roswell after the mystery UFO crash said to have happened outside the town in New Mexico, USA, in July 1947.

    The UK UFO sighting happened in the early hours of December 26 1980, when three US officers based at RAF Bentwaters claimed a “triangular shaped craft” landed in neighbouring woods – This case has led to several reported sightings on the night by the public and several books and conspiracies.

    The man, who has not been publicly named, is now claiming that the US National Security Agency (NSA) and the UK Government had a going project looking at UFO sightings, which included the Rendlesham incident back in the 1980s.

    The man has filed a report to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) -, saying that he wants to help reach “disclosure”.

    In the report filed recently he said:

    I’m not reporting a UFO sighting rather a UFO related experience. 

    “I have copies of my security clearances.

    “I personally handled, viewed and delivered thousands of documents involving UFO/ET Projects. 

    “My secrecy agreement with the US Government expired in October 2014. 

    “At this point in my life I would like to share my knowledge in hopes that someone will be able to use it effectively towards disclosure.” He said.

    The unknown man then went on to confirm that he was given TS SBI/ESI NATO/SIOP Compartmental Security Clearance, which is Top Secret clearance for working in Special Background Investigation, Single Integrated Operation Plan, Exceptionally Sensitive Information and with NATO.

    He then added:

    In addition we had a GS11 employee who was transferred from a Joint US/UK communication station north of London after working at that site for a dozen years. 

    “He said it was an National Security Agency (NSA)/UK facility tasked with tracking UFO including Rendalsham Forest Incident. 

    “He said that UFO/ET were real and that hopefully disclosure would happen in my lifetime since he was in his early 60s at the time.” 

    In the report he went on to say:

    I was required to deliver TS Code word designation COSMIC to SRI, ESL/SYLVANIA, LOCKHEED SKUNKWORKS, TRW, RATHEON, BERKELEY LABS, LAWRENCE LIVERMORE LABS, and other think tanks throughout Silicon valley.”

    After some research it appears that at the time in question, Moffett Field was an important naval air base, but is now a MFA as a restricted federal airfield, run by NASA.*  The Lockheed Martin Skunkworks is a global security and aerospace company based in Bethesda, Maryland.

    The Berkeley and Lawrence Livermore laboratories and scientific labs which work closely with NASA in California.

    Spelt differently, Raytheon Company is a global technology and innovation firm specialising in defence and cybersecurity.

    Roger Marsh, who is a MUFON spokesman, said: “This historical case has been assigned to a field investigator within the Californian MUFON group.”  But yet AGAIN they will probably confirm NOTHING and dismiss what appears to be an extremely important piece of disclosure as ‘inconclusive’

    Military fencing around the former RAF Bentwaters base still said to be a UFO hotspot

    U.I.P SUMMARY – 

    Now this is an incredibly IMPORTANT story and one of which us guys at U.I.P will be monitoring VERY closely – it appears that this person is very real and has some very conclusive evidence.

    Interestingly this post has been deleted twice after our site had been hacked into a couple of times, so it appears that somebody somewhere does not want this story highlighted in the public eye!?

    It was not that long ago that we actually published an article on some strange events that have been witnessed at Rendlesham forest, with some GREAT evidence captured on camera – perhaps there can be no more covering up the events that have happened in the forest and that there is ‘something’ there, perhaps some kind of other worldly gateway which unknown Beings are using to travel through.

    We will keep you updated on this story and try to interview the person who is supposedly discloing this information.

    Please check out our previous posts before on the Rendlesham event:

    A Cyborg Swarm: The Future Of Drone Tech is Remote-Controlled, Living Beetles
     
    Researchers have now developed bio-inspired drones with bug eyes, bat ears, bird wings, and even honeybee-like hairs to sense biological, chemical and nuclear weapons
    Researchers have now developed bio-inspired drones with bug eyes, bat ears, bird wings, and even honeybee-like hairs to sense biological, chemical and nuclear weapons
    Nanyang Technological University
    Over recent years a range of miniature drones, or micro air vehicles (MAVs), based on the same physics used by flying insects, have been presented to the public
    IN BRIEF

    This video may not seem terribly remarkable, but then you remember that that someone is controlling these insects with a remote control.

    MEET THE BEETLES

    It sounds like something straight out of a horror film. Scientists have discovered that they can wire flying beetles and control them remotely. The spine-tingling part—they plan to harvest swarms of them.

    Across the world, scientists are trying to create robot insect swarms. Why? Ultimately, these insect swarms are viewed as being super beneficial when confronted with tight spaces. To this extent, they could help with tasks such as locating earthquake survivors in rubble, they could act as mini-surveillance cameras, and even eavesdrop on criminal suspects.

    But rather than designing a robot insect, engineers at Nanyang Technological University and University of California Berkeley are trying to control the actual insects themselves.

    USING THE READ DEAL

    “This technology could prove to be an improved alternative to remote-controlled drones as it could go in areas which are not accessible before,” stated Assistant Professor Hirotaka Sato of the NTU School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. Their findings are published inRoyal Society Interface.

    The living insect requires no engineering to keep it in the air and maintains flight on its own. It also removes the need for a bunch of tiny manufactured parts since you’re using the biological organism as-is.

    The electronics involved add up to be only a mere $7, drastically different from the costs associated with manufacturing robot drones. All you need is to attach an electrode and a tiny electronic backpack, and you can control a living bug that’s set for wireless flight.

    The electrodes are attached to specific parts of the beetle’s legs, optic lobes, and flight muscles. They are triggered by a radio signal that tells the beetle which direction to go and when to move. From there, it does the rest.

    The beetle used for this project is the Giant Flower beetle, or ‘Mecynorrhina torquata,’ due to it’s small size and weight (7.6 cm and 5.6 g, respectively). It was also a great match for carrying extra weight required in search-and-rescue missions.

    The microchip backpack is attached using organic beeswax, which doesn’t harm the animal’s natural carapace when removed. Notably, no animals were harmed in this experiment. A 3.9 volt battery powers the entire system, which provides enough power to last a day. But the team envisions transitioning to a sustainable power source in the future.

    Interestingly, this project has unexpectedly led to the discovery in relation to the beetle’s coleopteran muscle. Scientists believed for two centuries that the muscle was only responsible in wing-folding. But the team of engineers discovered that it also assists with steering and turning – a feat that leaves us with one more piece of information we didn’t have previously.

    WASHINGTON — The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is working to restore communications with a new astronomy satellite that malfunctioned March 26, generating debris.

    In a March 27 statement, JAXA said it lost communications with the Hitomi satellite at 3:40 a.m. Eastern March 26. "Up to now, JAXA has not been able to figure out the state of health of the satellite," the agency said in the statement.

    "We are still trying to recover communication with 'Hitomi', and trying to find out the status and causes of this communication failure," JAXA said in a tweet early March 28, the latest update provided by the agency on the status of recovery efforts.

    While JSpOC classified this event as a "breakup," the satellite appears to still be mostly intact, although damaged. JAXA noted that it "received short signals from Hitomi" after the time JSpOC reported for the breakup, but did not indicate exactly when it received the signals or any information they provided about the status of the spacecraft.

    Amateur satellite observers, observing Hitomi from the ground, reported on a mailing list late March 27 seeing flashes from the satellite with a period of 5 to 10 seconds. Those flashes suggest that the spacecraft, which is normally three-axis stabilized, is spinning.

    Neither JAXA nor JSpOC have speculated on the cause of the malfunction and breakup, which could be due to either a technical problem with the satellite itself or a collision with a micrometeorite or piece of orbital debris. 

    JAXA launched Hitomi, originally known as Astro-H, on an H-2A rocket Feb. 17. The 2,700-kilogram satellite carries several instruments to perform x-ray astronomy observations. Some of the spacecraft's instruments were provided by NASA, the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency. The spacecraft was in the middle of a three-month checkout and instrument calibration phase when the malfunction took place.

    Viva 'Mars World': Las Vegas May Get Red Planet Experience

    An otherworldly tourist attraction could be coming to Sin City a few years from now.

    A consortium that includes a renowned space designer wants to build an immersive experience called "Mars World" near the famed Las Vegas Strip by 2021.

    The multi-acre simulated city will rise on yet-to-be purchased land somewhere between the I-15 freeway and Las Vegas Boulevard, if all goes according to plan. Visitors will be treated to the music, costumes and culture of a Mars colony. They will take simulated "Marswalks" in one-fourth Earth gravity, ride a tram around the crater in which the city is built and even sleep overnight in rough habitats if they wish. [7 Biggest Mysteries of Mars]

    Fundraising for the $2 billion project will take several years. About $500,000 is available now from "key players" in the finance and trademarking/branding world, said chief designer John Spencer, who's also the founder of the Space Tourism Society. A second fundraising round of $17 million has just begun, he added.

    "We're really moving forward on this longstanding connection between science fiction and entertainment and real things," Spencer told Space.com. "We developed an approach — we call this a design approach —that what we're doing is not science fiction. It's science future."

    Paging Walt Disney

    Spencer's space architecture work includes design on the International Space Station and Japan's Space World theme park, as well as early designs for the Science Fiction Museum and Las Vegas' Star Trek: The Experience. He also was the designer for the Aquarius underwater laboratory used by astronauts during NEEMO (NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations) missions.

    Las Vegas is a natural location for this attraction, Spencer said. About 40 million visitors come every year, with about 8 million of those being first-time visitors. They seek something unique that they can talk to their friends about, Spencer added. He therefore estimates he can pull in about 7 million attendees annually for Mars World.

    Doing so will require a lot of work, Spencer acknowledges, but he added he has expertise in raising millions of dollars in space-themed parks. He is studying other "location-based entertainment" master plans, such as that of Disney World in Florida, focusing on elements such as realism.

    When the second round of funding is finished, Spencer plans to gather advice on music, interiors, lighting and design from the entertainment world in Los Angeles.

    Revenues and audience

    While some elements of Mars World will be for children, such as an animatronic petting zoo, the experience will mostly be targeted to the over-21 crowd. Specifically, Spencer is imagining an audience with a mentality similar to that of "Burning Man" desert festival attendees.

    "They're pretty rowdy, independent, artistic. Don't agree with authority too much. At Burning Man, clothing is optional," Spencer said. "If you take that as a foundation and extend that out further in the controlled environment, then we have amazing characters, artwork and costumes."

    Attendance to the park will be free, but to generate ongoing revenues for the project, Spencer envisions selling merchandise on-site. He also wants to patent certain aspects of the project such as the architecture. But first, his team will need to purchase the land, which will cost about $200 million. He is looking at two tracts, one about 85 acres, the other 66 acres.

    Other members of the Mars World team include CEO Lewis Stanton (with executive experience in the hospitality, casino and capital market industries); Chief Marketing Officer Lisa Leight (who among other things, relaunched the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago) and Vice President Garry Willinge (formerly with IBM China, and a director for several private and public company boards).

    Clintons New Promise To Disclose The Truth About The ET’s – But Is It a Lie?

    21501_10153626734457736_332458493891785564_n

    Politicians are all pretty much the same type of creature: cunning, manipulative and always try to say the right thing.  But could it that Hilary Clintons latest promise to reveal the truth about the Aliens, is actually one of the most exciting pieces of news about the potential upcoming Disclosure?  Well, possibly not!

    What with the Presidential campaign heating up over the last few months, and Hilary Clinton preparing herself for a potential battle against Donald Trump, speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the presidential hopeful said she wanted to make as many of the files on “unexplained aerial phenomena” public as possible – but we all know that have heard this before from Hilary (please click HERE).

    Hilary has confirmed that she will release government-held UFO files to the public if she is elected president.  The Democratic candidate spoke out on Jimmy Kimmel Live, as she leads the race against Bernie Sanders for the party’s nomination for November’s election.

    Hilary Clinton has basically followed in her husband Bills footsteps, who back in 2014 appeared on the show and was also asked if he had ever looked into UFOs or Area 51 – which as we all know is a top secret airbase rumoured to “back engineer” alien technology!

    Bill said “sort of” but added there were no dead aliens there.

    Hillary has now promised the US citizens that she will dig deeper if she makes it to the White House and promise to disclose the TRUTH!

    Hillary Clinton was speaking about UFOs on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    Hillary Clinton was speaking about UFOs on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    This is now the first time on TV she has spoken about the issue, she told Kimmel:

    I’m going to do it again. There’s a new name for UFOs. It’s unexplained aerial phenomena. That’s the new nomenclature. I would like us to go into those files and hopefully make as much of that as public as possible.

    “If there’s nothing there, let’s tell people there’s nothing there. If there is something there, unless it’s a threat to national security, I think we ought to share it with the public.” She said.

    As we have mentioned in a previous post (please click HERE)  this is NOT the first time the Clintons have been linked with aliens.

    It was back when Bill was president between 1993 and 1996, he was approached by the late billionaire philanthropist Laurance Rockefeller to release UFO files as part of the ‘Rockefeller initiative’.  Rockefeller who is known to be one of the most wealthiest men in the world and rumoured to be the head of the supposed Illuminati.

    Hillary Clinton was also involved in the talks about Aliens and captured on camera walking alongside Laurence at his ranch, holding a book about Alien life!

    Hillary Clinton and Laurence Rockefeller UFO-meeting of 21 Aug 1995

    Hillary Clinton and Laurence Rockefeller UFO-meeting of 21 Aug 1995

    Hilary’s campaign manager John Podesta, who is Bill Clintons former Chief of Staff, admitted he had convinced Hillary to declassify UFO files in a TV interview last month- John also recently tweeted that his only ever regret whilst working with Obama was not being able to help force Disclosure (please click HERE).

    U.I.P’s friend  and America’s only registered lobbyist on ET/UFOs, Stephen Bassett, hopes the UFO issue will be raised in the upcoming Democratic debates.

    John recently said to a UK newspaper:

     “The only circumstance under which a leading presidential candidate, her president husband and their common advisor would repeatedly speak to the ET issue during a campaign is when their collective brain is fully aware the ET presence is fact.” John said.

    Leading Bookies have now slashed the odds of finding ET life from 1000/1 to 100/1 after this recent announcement by Hilary Clinton.

    A William Hill spokesman said:

    Should Hillary utter the unthinkable words then we are facing a monster payout.”

    It might be time to start placing your best people!?

    Please check out the below video of the recent Hilary Clinton video:

    U.I.P SUMMARY

    Well folks it appears that Hilary is becoming desperate now with yet AGAIN mentioning the UFO subject matter and once AGAIN promising to tell all about any information on the UFO’s and Alien Beings.  It is important too remember though that Hilary did state that she will inform the masses about the ET’s but only if its in the best interest of mankind – and this ladies and Gentlemen will be her get out cause for telling the TRUTH about the ET’s!

    This is all about the drip feeding of disclosure from the Elite people – Be careful with who you trust as this is a game to the power people!

    Top Secret UK Documents Which Prove ‘Aliens EXIST’ To Be Released In Days?

    outer%20space%20planets%20science%20fiction%20aliens%201280x768%20wallpaper_wallpaperswa_com_53

    Apparently confidential government reports into UFO sightings – dubbed the “British X-Files” – could be made publicly available within days!

    The long-awaited boost for alien hunters follows years of campaigning by the British disclosure movement, who want all world Governments to release all their alien files.

    UFO researchers, backed by a House of Lords peer, have been fighting for the release of 18 top secret Ministry of Defence (MoD) files about UFO sightings from more than 30 years ago.

    The Government faced claims of a cover-up from conspiracy theorists when their release was stalled at the end of 2013.

    Some investigators claim the files could provide key evidence of extra-terrestrial life visiting the UK and of specific information about famous controversial sightings such as the Rendlesham Forest incident – a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights and the alleged landing of one or more craft in Suffolk in late December 1980.

    Lord Black of Brentwood, who asked the Government for an update through a Parliamentary question last summer, was assured the files would be released by the MoD to the National Archives by March this year.

    This could very well be HUGE news for Disclosure – A huge can of worms is about to be opened it appears!

    The top-secret files could be declassified within days

    This very long-awaited boost for Truth seekers follows years of campaigning by the British disclosure movement, who want all world Governments to release all their alien files.

    Leading UFO researchers, backed by a House of Lords peer, have been fighting for the release of 18 top secret Ministry of Defence (MoD) files about UFO sightings from more than 30 years ago!

    The British Government faced claims of a cover-up from conspiracy theorists when their release was stalled way back at the end of 2013.

    Many leading investigators and researchers believe that these important files could provide key evidence of extra-terrestrial life visiting the UK and of specific information about famous controversial sightings such as the Rendlesham Forest incident – which is a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights and the alleged landing of one or more craft in Suffolk in late December 1980.

    Lord Black of Brentwood, who asked the Government for an update through a Parliamentary question last summer, was assured the files would be released by the MoD to the National Archives by March this year – BUT will they stick to this promise!?

    Lord Black of Brentwood DEMANDS the truth from the UK Government about the UFO's in the skies above us!

    Lord Black of Brentwood DEMANDS the truth from the UK Government about the UFO’s in the skies above us!

    Truth Seekers around the world are VERY confident that these records could very well prove if extra-terrestrial life actually exists, as these are the most secretive files held in the private offices of various Cabinet ministers – Although the files are being released to the National Archives, it is not yet clear when they will be available for public inspection and many people expect intentional delays, this is because the archive organisation can set its own release date!

    In his Parliamentary question, Lord Black asked:

    What is the latest estimate of when the 18 files will be passed to the National Archives, and then released to the public.” He said.

    Defence Minister Earl Howe replied:

    The latest estimate of when the 18 files will be delivered to the National Archives is before March 2016.

    “The National Archives will make the necessary judgement about when they release these files to the public.”

    A large number of older UFO files held by the UK government have already been released, including details of sightings by officials and police.

    U.I.P’s friend Nick Pope, who actually used to investigate the existence of UFOs for the MoD, said the files should contain some extremely fascinating sightings.

    However, referring to what is often called the most famous UFO claim in history – sparked by claims an alien spaceship crashed in New Mexico, US, in 1947 – Nick Pope added the soon-to-be-released files are probably not a “UK Roswell-style UFO in a hangar style cover up”.

    When the release of the files were stalled in 2014, which the MoD blamed on “additional processing requirements”, Mr Pope sympathised with alien researchers and also believed that these were potential ‘delaying tactics’.

    He said at the time:

    This massive delay will have conspiracy theorists up in arms. It looks like the MoD is stalling.

    “The suspicion will be that there’s a bombshell in these files and that the Ministry does not know how to handle it.

    “I can understand why conspiracy theorists will be angry and suspicious.

    Nick Pope also demands the TRUTH.

    Nick Pope also demands the TRUTH.

    Nick Pope worked for the British MoD for at least 21 years, but was specifically assigned to investigate UFOs for an intriguing three-year period!

    He said:

    “Having worked on the MoD’s UFO project I’m sorry to say that we don’t have any crashed spaceships hidden away in some RAF hangar, as some believe, but we do have some fascinating and unexplained cases in our files.”

    The ‘Redlesham Forest incident’, which is alleged to have taken place near RAF Woodbridge, Suffolk, in 1980, saw US Airman First Class John Burroughs, who was stationed there, exposed to radiation after a mystery “UFO visitation”.

    He has since won damages from the American military, but still wants answers about what happened and hopes they will be in the new files.

    Pat Frascogna, his lawyer, said:

    We know there is information contained in these MoD files about the Rendlesham Forest incident because the MoD clearly indicated so in responding to a Freedom of Information request by John Burroughs last year.” 

    Check out this incredible sighting at Rendlesham recently involving a British Apache Gunship and an Orb:

    U.I.P SUMMARY – Us guys at U.I.P do not want to get you all too over excited about this as we have all been let down before, however with so many key figures involved including British ‘Lords’ this could very well be a HUGE piece of drip feeding of Disclosure – we told you all that 2016 was going to be an important year of discovery lets hope that stories like this are true and give some IMPORTANT factual evidence!

    But can we trust the ELITE to tell us all the TRUTH!?

    Argentina: A Red Sphere Emerged at Punta Piedras

    Argentina: A Red Sphere Emerged at Punta Piedras

    By Pachi La Fata

    Researchers of UFO-related phenomena refer to these events as "skywatches" - meetings held in various parts of the country to observe and investigate so-called UFO hotspots. The main goal is, of course, a direct experience with unidentified flying objects. Within this framewoerk, one of the most spectacular occurences happened in the locality of Punta Piedras, facing the River Plate in Buenos Aires.

    It was there that several experts on the subject were able to witness a reddish sphere rise out of the water, climb several meters, change its color to orange and finally speed off toward Uruguay. The incredible case occurred on July 25, 2009 at a site north of the Bay of San Borombón, and was witnessed by members of the GABIE Group, whom aside from UFO research, also engage in astronomy and other scientific studies. They were Pablo Lasa, Ariel Cóppola, Martín Costes, Fernando Lisardo, Nicolas Lisardo y Catriel, who were present throughout the event.

    According to the story, the sigthing took place from a camp ground known as El Desanso in Punta Piedras. "The skywatch had been scheduled for the previous weekend, but it was necessary to reschedule it due to weather conditions," they explained.

    Martín Costes was the group member who was best able to see the phenomenon in detail. "Pablo, Ariel, Fernando and their two children were near me by the bonfire, discussing subjects pertaining to astronomy, when the conversation took a turn and we started talking about UFOs," he said, adding: "After a few minutes of conversation, I got up to import weather data from the weather station in my tablet. So I turned my back to the fire, which was only a few meters from the base. I was standing up, when something told me to go toward the river. I decided to pay attention and did so."

    At that moment, an episode he'll never forget too place. "When I got there, only a few seconds after seeing the river, I saw a brillant red sphere rising out the water, approximately 20 meters long. It moved repeatedly from left to right, parallel to the river," he explained in detail. According to the witness, "the object began disappearing little by little until distance kept us from seeing it. Bear in mind that other people in the campground didn't hear it, althought they were only five meters from where I was standing."

    "In other words, I wasn't able to hear the conversations of my companions by the bonfire. That's not all. Another thing to highlight is that I was in shock for almost 15 minutes after the sighting. This happened at 1 in the morning," remarked the specialist.

    Costes, whose story was broadcast on the Codigo OVNI radio show, explained that "the entire episode lasted some 3 minutes. My companions managed to see around 30 seconds to a full minute, perhaps, of the phenomenon."

    NASA's 'Spaceport of the Future' Reaches Another Milestone

SLS will be the most powerful rocket ever built and will launch the agency’s Orion spacecraft into a new era of exploration to destinations beyond low-Earth orbit.

    NASA has completed a major milestone on its journey to Mars and is ready to begin another phase of work on its spaceport of the future, where the next generation of astronauts will launch to Mars and other deep-space destinations.

    The agency recently wrapped up a comprehensive and successful review of plans for the facilities and ground support systems that will process the agency’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

    “NASA is developing and modernizing the ground systems at Kennedy to safely integrate Orion with SLS, move the vehicle to the pad, and successfully launch it into space,” said Bill Hill, deputy associate administrator of NASA’s Exploration Systems Development Division at the agency’s Headquarters in Washington. “Modernizing the ground systems for our journey to Mars also ensures long-term sustainability and affordability to meet future needs of the multi-use spaceport.”

    Over the course of a few months, engineers and experts across the agency reviewed hundreds of documents as part of a comprehensive assessment. The Ground Systems Development and Operations Program (GSDO), responsible for processing SLS and Orion for flight and ensuring all systems and facilities are ready, completed its critical design review (CDR) of the facilities and ground support systems plans in December 2015.

    This was followed in January by the completion of an independent assessment by a Standing Review Board, a team of aerospace experts that assessed program readiness and confirmed the program is on track to complete the engineering design and development process on budget and on schedule. 

    In the final step before actual fabrication, installation and testing of Kennedy's ground systems, the GSDO program and review board briefed the results of their assessments to NASA’s Agency Program Management Council, led by Associate Administrator Robert Lightfoot.

    Engineers are transforming Kennedy's launch infrastructure to support the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft. The heavy-lift rocket will be stacked in the Vehicle Assembly Building on the mobile launcher and roll out to Launch Pad 39B atop a modified crawler transporter. The Orion spacecraft will be fueled with propellants in the Multi-Payload Processing Facility at Kennedy prior to stacking atop the rocket. The launch team will use the new command and control system in the firing room as the clock counts down to liftoff of SLS’s first flight.

    “The team is working hard and we are making remarkable progress transforming our facilities," said Mike Bolger, GSDO Program Manager. "As we are preparing for NASA's journey to Mars, the outstanding team at the Kennedy Space Center is ensuring that we will be ready to receive SLS and Orion flight hardware and process the vehicle for the first flight in 2018."

    The council also heard the results of the Orion CDR, completed at the program level in October 2015. The evaluation assessed the primary systems of the spacecraft, including the capsule’s structures, pyrotechnics, Launch Abort System jettison, guidance, navigation and control and software systems among many other elements. 

    For the spacecraft’s first mission on the SLS rocket, ESA (European Space Agency) is providing Orion’s service module, which powers, propels, cools and provides consumables like air and water in space. Results from ESA's service module design review, which began this month, will be assessed and incorporated into Orion development and integration plans later this summer. Systems unique to the first crewed flight will be addressed at a review in the fall of 2017.

    Progress continues on Orion at NASA facilities across the country. The underlying structure of the crew module arrived at Kennedy in early February for outfitting, which is currently underway. Over the next 18 months, thousands of Orion components will arrive and be installed.

    Meanwhile, a structural representation of the service module is being tested at NASA’s Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio, where engineers conducted a successful solar array wing deployment test on Feb. 29 and are preparing for a variety of tests to confirm it can withstand the harsh conditions of launch.

    Zal deze planeet met de aarde botsen?

    Sorry beste Zita-lezer, we hebben slecht nieuws. Volgens doemdenkers zal onze aarde nog dit jaar ophouden te bestaan: een dodelijke planeet ligt op ramkoers met onze blauwe bol.

    Dat is tenminste wat fans van samenzweringen en doemsdagtheorieën denken. Ze geloven dat er een mysterieuze ‘extra’ planeet in ons zonnestelsel aanwezig is. De planeet Nibiru zal plots opduiken en ons allemaal doden. Op zich is de theorie niet zo gek: wetenschappers vonden onlangs bewijzen van het bestaan van een negende planeet. Dus wie weet zijn we allemaal gedoemd.

    De planeet zal volgens ‘Breaking Israel News’ op 28 september botsen met de aarde. Je duidt die datum dus best met een vette rode stift aan in je agenda. Overigens hoef je niet meteen te panikeren: dezelfde doemdenkers dachten ook dal dat Nibiru onze planeet in september en december van vorig jaar zou vernietigen.

    Bovendien bestaat Nibiru of ‘Planeet X’ niet echt: indien ze wel zou bestaan en op ramkoers zou liggen met de aarde, dan hadden astronomen deze al lang ontdekt.

    Close encounters of the County Limerick kind

    Gerry Battles

    Gerry Battles

    IT was a clear, dry night. It was really crisp and frosty — just beautiful. You could have read a book with the light off the night sky, but I wasn’t drawn by the light of the stars or the moon but by a bright, surgical, white light coming from the other end of the boreen.

    These are the words of County Limerick man Gerry Battles in the final moments leading up to what he is convinced was an alien abduction near his family home in Pallaskenry on December 26, 2001.

    The 61-year-old retired carpenter told the Limerick Post this week that he had been returning home from The Seven Sisters Pubs in Kildimo around 8pm, after having two Christmas drinks with a friend.

    “I was only minutes away from my house but it was such a clear and beautiful night that I stopped to gaze at the stars,” he explains.

    After being drawn by a bright, otherworldly, white light at the end of the laneway, the next thing he remembers is finding himself aboard a spacecraft with about 40 others — all in a subdued state, standing motionless like statues.

    “They were all male, of different age groups, all standing shoulder to shoulder like mannequins. I remember one man next to me wearing a Columbo-style coat and hat. We were all in a state of paralysis, I could only move my eyes, so I couldn’t see much,” Gerry tells me.

    “The next thing I remember floating into another bigger chamber with a 360 degree viewing deck. It was then I saw the extraterrestrial. I couldn’t tell how big he was or even if he had arms or legs, all I remember is his big cone head and his beautiful, ginormous eyes. They were jet black, almost like mirrors.

    “He spoke to me through telepathy and said: “you are not terrified like the others”.

    “No, I am not. Should I be?” Gerry asked.

    The alien then quizzed the Limerick grandfather about what he would like to see.

    “The North Pole”, came his instant reply.

    “The next thing the extraterrestrial gave a command, and in an instant we were at the North Pole. I was in awe. I remember thinking of that line from ‘Star Trek’: “warp speed Mr Sulu”. It was like driving through a snowstorm at 500 miles an hour.”

    Gerry admits that anyone he has revealed this fantastical story to thinks he is mad. He laughs when I ask if he has any history of mental illness.

    “No, not at all,” he assures me.

    Gerry Battles 5 .

    This quiet-natured gentleman is adamant that the message relayed to him by the creature he encountered is an important one for all mankind to hear. He feels those who laugh at his tale of alien abduction are “naïve and have small imaginations”, and urges them to open their minds.

    The message relayed to Mr Battles on Stephen’s Night 2001 by his alien abductor warned of Planet Earth’s pending doom and predicted that mankind could go the same way as the dinosaurs.

    “You have come a long way in such a short space of time but your time is running out,” Gerry was told.

    “In 850 years from now, a giant asteroid the size of Munster is going to obliterate your planet. The asteroid will approach your planet from the 35th Quadrant.

    We are four million light years more advanced than you are. We have been observing you for Millennia. In all that time you have only excelled at two things — global warfare and lying to your own species.

    “You must use the force. Be one with the force. Harness the force,” the alien advised.

    Surprisingly, the following part of the intergalactic message sounds more likely to have been relayed by anti-austerity campaigners than Jedi-powered Martians.

    “He told me that every one of our governments have been lying to us from day one and not to trust them. He also warned not to trust the banks as they have been lying as well and have a hidden agenda.

    “He also forewarned the impending global financial crisis and told me that if we do not change our ways we are going to end up like the dinosaurs.”

    Mr Battles has no recollection of how long the abduction lasted and had no memory of it afterwards until the coat he was wearing that night turned up in a most unlikely location.

    “A contractor working at the Regional Hospital found the coat up on the hospital roof a few weeks later. I have no idea how it got there. It was only after having the coat returned to me that the events of December 26, 2001, started to come back to me.”

    He believes aliens use ‘dark matter’ or ‘dark energy’, an invisible cloaking device, to keep their universe hidden from our own. He is hopeful his story will reach the world’s scientific community and prove useful in helping to finally uncover these distant galaxies.

    “The truth is definitely out there,” he insists.

    MY MOTHER’S ‘FLYING SAUCER’ SIGHTING IN 1975…….DO I BELIEVE HER?…..YES, WITHOUT ANY DOUBT!!
    by Norio Hayakawa, written on February 5, 2007

    Because of my fear of public ridicule, I have not told this true story publicly before, except to my closest friends.  It is only just recently that I have decided to go ahead and share this with the public:
    My beloved mother passed away a few years ago in Yokohama, Japan, at the age of 88.  One of the most fascinating things my mother had ever told me happened one bright, clear, cloudless day in the spring of 1975.

    I was living in Phoenix, Arizona.  I remember receiving from her a most interesting letter.  I could see her excitement in that letter.  She wrote to me in that letter saying that about 10 days before, she had distinctively observed a silvery, metallic, “flying saucer”-shaped object (with a dome) hovering just over a crowded railway station in Yokohama.
    It was in broad daylight, around 11:30 a.m.  She described the object incredibly as a typical, “flying saucer”, just as “flying saucers” have always been depicted in comic books or in Sci-Fi movies.
    She said in the letter that it happened while she and her grandson were walking away from the railroad station and walking towards home.  (They lived in a busy shopping street called Motomachi Shopping Street…..see the photo above of the street).  

    She felt as if “something had told her” to turn around and look back towards the railway station.  And, Lord, behold, right over the station, she suddenly saw this shiny, silverishmetallic, typical “flying saucer” with a dome hovering over!  She immediately pointed to her grandson to turn around and look, and at that very moment, the object was gone…..vanished!

    The street was filled with people coming from and going to the railway station.  She was so awe-struck that she didn’t even notice anyone observing the object.

    maxresdefault

    (She described to me what she said she saw……exactly like the above, a scene from a Science Fiction movie)

    My mother had always been skeptical and always used to ridicule my serious interest in “UFOs”.  (In my childhood years, I had always taken a great interest in “UFOs” or “flying saucers”, as they were called then, ever since my father had told me of his sighting of a strange, greenish “ball of fire” slowing moving over Yokohama bay one summer night in 1947, as he was night-fishing, his favorite hobby of many many years.  He swore that the object seemed as if it were “intelligently controlled” or “intelligently maneuvering”. He said he had never seen anything like it before.  My father had passed away in 1982).

    But getting back to my mother, her amazing sighting totally made her a believer.   Do I believe her sighting?  By all means, yes.  I have the highest respect for my mother and I totally believe what she said in the letter.  I visited my mother a few years later and she confirmed her sighting right to the dot.  There is no doubt in my mind that she did see what she said she saw.  But what do I think the “flying saucer” she saw is?

    After more than 45 years of research behind the UFO phenomenon, I have yet to come to any definitive conclusion as to what UFOs are.  Is it a physical phenomenon? a religious apparition?  I have no idea.  But I can definitely state that I believe my mother saw a “flying saucer”.
    This is why when a group of experienced pilots and several United Airlines employees reported that they had witnessed a metallic, saucer-shaped object hovering over Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport last November in the late afternoon, I truly believe that they did see what they said they saw, i.e., a metallic, saucer-shaped object….and nothing else.  Again, as to what “flying saucers” really are, I haven’t the slightest idea, even after more than 45 years of research.

    During my 45 years of research, I have read hundreds and hundreds of sighting reports, analyzed hundreds of documents, seen many many footages of sightings, personally experienced a few sightings which I could not readily explain, interviewed hundreds of eyewitnesses (including some so-called “abductees”) and traveled far and wide to many sightings locations in both Japan and the United States. (I even visited Mexico, Chile and Argentina.)

    Surprising as it may sound, after all these personal efforts of many years, I cannot even come close to stating what is behind the UFO phenomena.  It still remains a mystery to me.
    However, after all these years, the bottom line in my view is that we have yet to come up with a single physical, solid, hard, tangible, irrefutable evidence to prove that the UFO phenomena are physical manifestations of physical extraterrestrial intelligent entities from beyond this earth.

    I am not saying that the UFO phenomena do not exist.  I am simply saying that empirical science, the only discipline available so far that we can rely on to determine a phyiscal existence of a phenomenon, has not come up with any concrete evidence to prove beyond a shadow of doubt that “UFOs” are “nuts-and-bolts” physical craft operated or manipulated and occupied by physical entities from adavanced extrraterrestrial civilizations.

    This is why I came to believe that the entire phenomena could even be some form of religious manifestations or religious manipulations by a power which we cannot comprehend simply by physical pursuit, a power which apparently is capable of presenting an “instant” (but only “temporary”) “appearance” or “illusion” of being a physical phenomenon to the observer.  Some suggest that it could even be a momentary, holographic intrusion from “parallel intelligence”.  Some others even suggest that it could perhaps be some form of “time-slip”, interdimensional “accident”.  We just don’t have the answer.

    (I have always had the highest respect for Dr. Jacques Vallee, the world’s top authority on the UFO phenomenon in my opinion)

    Here is a YouTube item which I dedicated to my late mother:

    Indian Archaeologists Discover Paintings of Ancient Aliens

    The History Channel got it right! At least that’s the claim of some well-respected scholars operating in the Charama region of India. According to the leader of the archaeologists, J.R. Bhagat, cave art clearly shows that at least 10,000 years ago, aliens were in India. As might be expected, this strange bit of news has been received with considerable skepticism.

    Ancient Aliens India

    Bhagat, employed by the Chhattisgarh State Department of Archaeology and Culture, has gone straight to the top in his quest for additional help. He has contacted both NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization so that they can send experts to check out his amazing discovery. If those experts ever do show up, they’ll have to journey into the largely unexplored network of caves beneath the villages of Chandeli and Gotitola. Oral traditions from the villages include stories of the ‘rohela people,’ small figures who arrived in round flying objects. These figures took away some villagers in their flying object and never returned.

    Ancient Aliens India

    The cave paintings themselves, which have yet to be carbon dated, are said to be 10,000 years old. Natural pigments were used to produce the images, which have faded very little over the millennia since their application to the cave walls. Bhagat and others claim that the paintings depict UFOs, human-like figures with oddly shaped heads, and even individuals wearing spacesuits and holding strange-looking weapons.

    Ancient Aliens India

    Bhagat has also advanced the claim that the alien spacecraft painted on the wall may be the inspiration for Vimanas. Sanskrit epics reference mythical flying palaces or chariots, known as Vimanas. Hinduism spiritual texts, the Vedas, refer to multiple gods and demons using the Vimanas to fly across the sky. As speculation and skepticism  continue to hang over these paintings, everyone awaits the word of the world’s foremost student of UFOs, NFL Pro Bowler and Green Bay Packers quarterback, Aaron Rodgers.

    LISTEN: 21 reported UFO sightings in Central Queensland

    TO CELEBRATE the new season of X Files, we researched the reported UFO sightings in Central Queensland. 

    This information was obtained from the UFO Research Queensland Incorporated database. 

    UFO Research Queensland is a Brisbane based voluntary, non-profit association established in 1956 to receive, research and record sightings. 

    A Brisbane based researcher is documenting the history of sightings of UFOs in Queensland and would like to hear from anyone who may have had a personal UFO sighting, past or current, or know of such reports from their local area. 

    1. Rockhampton - August 14, 1952 at 12.05pm. 

    Note on file from W Scott, Chief test Pilot, GAF.  "Flight Townsville-Amberley at height of 35000-36000 feet, in Vampire, near Rockhampton when looking east toward coast saw large circular light at a lower height which could not be estimated due to bad ground haze, colour of ordinary incandescent light globe.  After observing for approximately 1 minute a number of small lights (6-10) appear to come from main light.  The smaller lights appear to surround big light for about 2 min. then disappeared.  After a further 2 min. the big light also disappeared."

    2. Rockhampton/Gladstone - August 1-2, 1971 at 11.35pm

    A Finnish couple, Ben and Helen K. left Gladstone at about 11.35 p.m. and upon arrival in Rockhampton found that only forty minutes had passed on a trip which would normally have taken much longer.  In addition to the rapid trip, they could not recall passing through intervening towns, although they did recall seeing an unusual green light at one stage.  Their 1971 Valiant sedan was reportedly covered with a thin film of odourless oil, and unusual marks were noted on the car's bonnet.  Attempts at hypnotising the couple were unsuccessful.

    3. Zilzie, May 3, 2006 at 9.25- 10.25pm

    Our dogs were barking on the back veranda, so I went out to quieten them down. Looked up at the night sky and saw three lights that were not normal. They were star-sized [evening star] and the top light was about size of the end of a biro, with the two underneath about half the size. The lights stayed steady, When viewed through binoculars the three lights were blue with clearly outlined red around the outside, similar to the top of a police car [only they don't fly]. A fourth identical light was seen about a kilometre away. I called my neighbours and they came over to the backyard, By this time I could only see two of these objects, when the neighbours spotted two more. I tried to ring Rockhampton airport, 40 kilometres from where I live, but no go. I then rang the Bureau of Meteorology, but only reached someone in Brisbane. It was a clear night and the event occurred over the mouth of a large creek system and the small town of Keppel Sands.

    4. Rockhampton - Occurred in 1970s

    I don't think this is a UFO but is very strange. About 30 years ago in Rockhampton, out on the edge of town, I was driving to collect a family member and had to stop on the crest of a hill to figure out what I was seeing. It was just coming on dusk but from this position I could see for miles over the river and treetops towards Gracemere. It appeared there was a long straight split in the sky about five miles away with a phosphorus ooze coming from it. The length of this "split" had to be considerable for me to see it so clearly. I walked forward of the car and back to see this from different angles. I even climbed up some of the hillside on the other side of the road. The thing that convinced me of the distance was that part of this ooze was blocked by the shape of the end of the Range on the other side of the city. It was too high to be power lines, and if this had looked like it was oozing upward I would have thought it some phosphorus gas from lagoons out that way. I wanted to wait for someone else to come along the road, but had to be on time. Has anyone else reported anything like this? I really do hope so.

    5. Bajool - April 10, 2008 at 5.15am

    I would like to report a UFO sighting which my husband and I experienced at approximately 5.15am on Thursday 10th April, 2008. This was along the Bruce highway about two kilometres south of Bajool which is just south of Rockhampton, Queensland. We were heading south in our car (a late model Nissan Pulsar).

    It began when we saw two lights in the sky ahead of us. As the lights got closer they passed over us and we noticed that there were three lights in a triangular shape, with one light in front and two behind. From our perspective the overall width of the object was tens of times wider than our car. We could not guess how far up the lights were from the ground, but we feel it was a substantial height and that the object or objects must have been quite enormous. Approximately one minute elapsed from when we first saw the lights until they had gone. The lights seemed silent and made no noise that we could hear over the car's engine. The lights could have been three separate objects or one object with three lights on it. We couldn't tell for sure but would guess that it was one large object. The lights then must have gone straight up into the air, as they got smaller and went out of sight.

    6. Yeppoon, reported 2001, happened 1997

    An object like the moon was seen descending at an angle of 45 degrees. It was perfectly round like a five cent piece with no trail or tail. It was observed for 3 seconds. The witness was looking north north-east and the object was about 10kms away.

    7. Marlborough - 1992/93 

    A woman and her family lived and worked on a cattle station and had gone to Rockhampton to shop. They were returning at night and saw a light below them while driving over a range. The light then passed over them and seemed the size of a dinner plate. As they approached home, a man walked out onto the track in front of them, and next moment the light was there. She next remembers arriving at their bungalow very tired, and decided to leave the groceries in their vehicle and go straight to bed. Her partner refused to talk about the incident. She has had encounters since.

    8. Mt Morgan - June 6, 2003 at 7pm

    A man was looking east and saw bright light flash across his view moving south to north. It was incredibly bright compared to the stars, had no tail, and made no sound. It was too fast to be an aircraft and appeared to come down as it moved, changing its angle of elevation from about 30 degrees to 25 degrees as it crossed about 20 degrees of sky. Its glow remained constant and it was lost behind a hill.

    9. Tieri - 1982-83

    In about 1982 or '83 my family moved to a new mining town called Tieri which is about one hour north-east of Emerald. At the time there was no street lighting so the night sky was very clear. At about 7.00 or 8.00 in the evening I was riding my bike down the street not far from my home. For some reason I looked up at the sky and saw what I thought was a very bright satellite moving across the sky. It moved at a steady almost satellite-like speed, but then began doing perfect and seemingly random 90 degree turns in the sky. It did this for about 10-15 seconds and then shot off and disappeared.

    10. Thangool - July 2003

    A woman reported that a couple of years previously she went to bed and woke up before dawn to see a being standing at the end of her bed. It had a wide head going to a narrow chin and round eyes that were completely white. It was dressed in tight fitting outfit. She felt this was an ET and it was evil. The experience 'creeped' her out and she had not had any other experiences since.

    11. Rockhampton - 1990

    A man was driving on the highway about 30 minutes south of Rockhampton. The incident occurred in the evening when he drove up a hill to then look down into a valley. This is where he saw what he first thought was a plane about to crash but which turned out to be a cigar-shaped object about "the size of the body of the largest plane and about two storeys high" which came to hover just below tree height. He pulled his car off the road and got out to get a better look at what he was seeing.

    The object travelled about 20kms/hr and silently glided over him only 15 to 20 metres above without "making a whisper". It was very brightly lit and seemed to be shiny [not metallic] but like colour bonded steel in a "bright orange colour". It had 10 windows around it "about 3/4 the size of an average bedroom window" which were all square at the bottom but coming to a peak at the top like "windows of a church".

    The front "windscreen" of the object had "full panel windows" [meaning from floor to ceiling] that were completely black which went right around the front and slightly around to the objects sides. The windows were so black the witness could not see anything inside and he "got the impression they were one way windows". The object looked very solid and had "no seams" which made it look like it was "pre-finished". It also appeared "very solid" to the witness and "well built, not like anything we have here".

    The witness said he got the impression the object was made for underwater travel as well as through the air. I quizzed him why he thought this but all he would say was "that was the impression I got". He estimated the object to be as bright as 1000 watts and he said he "got a really good look at it since it was so close". He also saw what seemed to be square landing pods underneath it that had "the roughness of acorns" on them "possibly for good traction". He watched the object for 3 minutes in total "enough time to get a really good look at it".

    While he was parked and looking at the object another car came over the hill and ran off the side of the road but did not stop. It was obvious to the witness that the driver of the other car saw the object too.

    12. Rubyvale Rd, Clermont - April 18, 2007 at 10.40pm

    I witnessed a very bright, to sharp white light, seemed sharper than the white background of this email page, and not to be likened to any Automotive 12- or 24-volt lights, or lights from a residence or camplight. It seemed as though it may have landed, due to the shadows of what seemed like lights behind tree branches, and the way the light seemed to be going in a upward elevation. The light was very, very bright.

    13. Rockhampton - April 19,  2001 at 7am

    A woman observed and obtained video footage of a black object well out to sea and travelling straight. It was white on top and red underneath. The video was posted to us and examined. It showed a pencil shaped object and a contrail about 10 times longer than the object. It is understood that military exercises were being conducted in that area around that time, and it is likely that this was an unusual but conventional aircraft.

    14. Rockhampton - October 20, 2005 at 9.30pm

    We were in the car park of the Rockhampton Airport around 9:30pm. We had not long landed from a flight from Brisbane, and were heading to our car when I noticed a light in the sky moving quite strangely, It was in the northish area and it was a quite far away. It was coming towards us, but at intervals it would speed-up then stop, then go again then stop, It must have done this ten times or more before it was nearly right over head. The light was white and strobe-like, dull to very bright in no apparent order, It also seemed to do small circles in the sky. Myself and a friend could not explain what we were looking at, as neither of us have seen anything like this before. It did not act like any plane or helicopter I've ever seen before.

    15. Rockhampton - July 20-21 1999 at 9.10pm

    An orange light was observed in the east-south-east sky by 3 witnesses. They made no noise as they watched for 5 minutes as it went overhead. Then they saw another one moving smoothly before hovering in one spot. The lights were brighter than a star and 3 to 4 times bigger than a star.

    16. Rockhampton - 1973

    Have you any reports of UFO activity over Rockhampton around 1973? I was in the army at the time on the original Kangaroo 1 exercise. We saw some really strange sightings over three nights. At the time I think it was the biggest peace-time international military exercise since WW2. We heard a lot of radio traffic from Rocky airport relating to the activity of these strange craft, which our unit could not explain - they were not supposed to be there at the time. The military have probably hidden any evidence, but you may be able to track down a former air traffic controller of the time. [If anybody has heard or knows anything more about these events please contact us - PP]

    17. Rockhampton - 1972/73

    A man was driving at dusk when he got a bit tired and pulled over to have a cigarette. He saw a white light in the Northern sky which travelled across his line of vision from left to right. It then did a complete 90 degree turn to the east and disappeared out of sight behind trees. The whole event happened very fast and only too about 4 seconds.

    18. Emerald - March 15, 2002 at 8pm

    Six witnesses observed an orange light steadily approaching them and making no sound. 3 flares shot out and it stopped while one flare came down. Then it moved southwest and faded. It was first seen in the southeast at an elevation of 45 to 50 degrees. The witness also reported seeing a UFO over a big dam in the area [Fairburn Dam] about 10 years ago. He observed it for 10 minutes. When he was a kid [30 to 35 years ago] he saw a saucer nest on a golf course which was about 20 feet in diameter. There was a circular depression in the reeds and the top of the grass was flattened.

    One of the other witnesses called in with her version of events. She stated that an orange light was travelling west going slowly in the direction of Fairburn Dam. It was going across the sky, lower than a satellite, higher than a plane, and round in shape. It was travelling across the sky getting lower. She was looking south to begin and looking SW when she lost sight of the object. She estimated it was about 60 degrees above the horizon and 3 times bigger than a star. She also observed there were a lot of shooting stars that night.

    19. Clermont - June 5, 2010 at 6am

    At about 6.00am, Saturday morning 5th day of June 2010, I saw a weird light in the eastern sky. It was travelling very slowly, and looked to be about 200 meters above the trees. This was on a mine site in central Queensland. There were no flashing lights as on planes or choppers. It had several lights on it, the main light was on the front and seemed to be pointing downwards. The object was slightly covered by fog or cloud, but the morning was crystal clear with no cloud or fog. The object slowly turned away from me and faded and totally disappeared from sight. Several people saw the same light -- maybe some one else saw this also.

    [Editor's note: As this sighting took place at the same time a mysterious spiral light was observed over the Australian east coast, the witness was asked if televised film footage of the spiral light matched the object he saw over Central Queensland. His response follows:]

    I saw the spiral light on TV but it looked different -- the one I saw looked more like a machine of sorts. It would only have been a kilometre away from us. It seemed so slow, but I probably only watched it for a minute or so before it veered away and disappeared. The one on TV looked a long way away. Also some friends in north Queensland on a remote cattle property saw something similar on the Saturday morning, low to the trees, about 6.45am.

    20. Blackwater - July 22-23, 2006 at 7.25pm

    I would like to draw your attention to a possible UFO sighting at Blackwater Queensland on the nights of July 22nd and July 23rd.

    At about 7:25pm on the 22nd of July I returned home from work and noticed what I first thought was the Southern Cross star formation which was very bright. I looked again and noticed there where only three stars. Thinking that I had made a mistake I searched for the Southern Cross and found it in the correct place, then rechecked the position of the three other objects -- they had moved. I called out to my wife and she saw them as well. The objects appeared to be very large bright stars, orange-red in colour, to the right side of the Southern Cross and moving slowly west. They were visible for about five minutes.

    Sunday 23rd July: On returning home tonight my wife and our next door neighbour witnessed another sighting at about 6:25pm. except there were twelve objects moving east to west and lower in the sky, the same colour and brightness, except this time one of the objects broke away and moved in a southerly direction. I would like to know if there is any natural or other explanation for what we witnessed.

    21. Blackwater - August/September 2006

    In August or September 2006 my sister was living in Blackwater about 45 minutes east of Emerald. She had just finished afternoon shift at one of the local mines and was driving home. She said she saw 20 orange/gold coloured flying objects in the sky. They weren't flashing like normal aircraft but maintained their colour. There was a car in front of her who she thinks must have seen them too as they began to swerve a little, but she doesn't know who they are. She called my mum who lives in Blackwater to see if she had heard or seen helicopters fly overhead as she thought that's what they might be. My mum heard and saw nothing. I now live in Sydney but always remember the strange things that happened in Central Queensland. I don't know what UFOs are but I know I saw one. And I'm pretty sure my sister saw 20 of them.

    Air Base Control Towers Close Encounter

    (Before It's News)

    AIR BASE CONTROL TOWERS CLOSE ENCOUNTER
    MAY 13, 1969 ………….  REUS SPAIN
    Gabriel Font, a native of Reus, discusses the questioning to which he was subjected after seeing a phenomenon – from the control tower – which the Army investigated and kept “classified” for 24 years.  Gabriel Font, 68, a native of Reus, spent decades in silence about the unidentified flying object (UFO) he saw on 13 May 1969 from his duty post, as he fulfilled his national service requirements at the Reus Air Base. “I didn’t tell anyone. Only my wife and daughters knew about it. They believed me, but didn’t give it much importance.”
    The confidential nature of that event, transformed into a dossier and an investigation by the Army, kept him from disclosing any details.  Following the sighting, Font and others working in the control tower (or who were mobilized on account of the sighting) were summoned for eyewitness statements. “A few days later they called us to the hangar, where a captain had his offices.
    We showed up in our best outfits, because it was all very formal, and they asked us: ‘What did you see’?” explains Font, who can now openly say what he replied at the time, in a moment full of tension and certain astonishment. “We saw a very bright light near Quatre Carreteres. Then it moved and wound up vanishing. A lieutenant colonel happened to be in the air at the time and he was ordered to fly there, but saw nothing. Some went up to the [control] tower. Some eight or nine people gathered there.” 
    He says that after telling their stories, the captain adjured them. “He told us that what he had seen was secret, and if we said something, we would be court-martialed. It was very strong stuff. It shocked and frightened me…I was only 19 years old.” No one spoke of it again. Gabriel completed his military service in the capital city of the Baix Camp without ever mentioning the case again, which was marked Classified and included in a report with the heading “Strange Phenomena Sightings”, bearing the seals, signatures and flourishes of the senior military staff.  That dossier, along with many others (some of which also occurred in Reus or Tarragona), was declassified in 1993, as stated in el Diari de Tarragona last Sunday, breaking down the investigations carried out by the Defense Ministry in regard to certain UFO cases, due to a recent CIA declassification in the United States. “I had no evidence that there was a dossier, although the investigation must have been a fact since I testified,” he says, while providing detail about his duties. “I aided my sergeant in the tower, going for the flight plans, helping where I could…,” he recalls. “There wasn’t much activity in the aerodrome at the time.
    They were basically military operations, and the first charter flights were starting to arrive. Sometimes pilots from abroad would bring the control tower staff a present, such as packs of cigarettes,” he adds.  His story coincides with the testimony offered by sergeants or controllers at the time, captured by the documentation in the hands of the Spanish air force authorities. The dossier mentions a “bright, motionless dot, evenly illuminated but for the exception of elongated spots of higher intensity, yellow in color,” according to the traffic controller’s description of the object through binoculars. “Was it a weather balloon?” Font now wonders. As with many of those inquiries, there was no conclusive result.
    After several consultations, however, also documented in the papers that remained classified for 24 years, the likelihood of a weather balloon was dismissed. It was suggested that “the hypothesis of a reflection, visible from a single direction” was the answer to the phenomenon.  The conjecture is based on the fact that there were several airplanes in flight, among them five Portuguese ones and a two-seater. “That thing wasn’t a reflection. I don’t know what it was, but I know it was there and we all saw it,” says Font.
