Let’s go to the movies — again

Hate to keep banging this tired old drum, but what is it about UFO discussions that prompt so-called skeptics to resort to sci-fi movie analogies? There’s something a little constipated going on here, and there has to be a clinical name for it. To quote my favorite guru, James Brown, “SOMEbody HE’P me!”

Mainstream science can handle UFO debates, so long as they're confined to big-screen metaphors/CREDIT: scootershoptalk.blogspot.com

I’m thinking specifically of SETI astronomer Seth Shostak’s podcast interview last year with UFOs On the Record author Leslie Kean. Shostak devoted a whopping nine minutes to the debate without mentioning the strongest cases in her book. Time is an issue, fine, no problem, understood. But whoa — at the end of the show, he and podcast producer Molly Bentley managed to find eight minutes to speculate on the imaginary warp-drive properties of Hollywood spaceships in “District 9,” “Close Encounters,” “Independence Day,” etc. No discussion of real-life radar records of the Japan Air Lines UFO incident off Alaska in 1986, mind you, but plenty of time for gabbing about cinematic fantasy.

Well, it happened again, in the latest edition of Quest: The History of Spaceflight Quarterly. In yet another curious review of UFOs On the Record, Roger Launius of the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum produces a conflicted analysis that reveals more about him than it does the book, which he characterizes as “less sensationalistic than you might think.” He certainly knows his audience.

Launius, senior curator of the Museum’s human spaceflight collection, is clearly impressed with Kean’s research. He says the author “uses solid, accepted, and not spurious documentation from official military and government UFO investigations,” and “in every case their veracity is unquestionable.” That’s a major concession, coming from a man so deeply embedded in structural groupthink.

But once again, rather than discuss the specifics of any case that puncture the limits of knowledge, Launius devolves into stale cliches of humanity’s eternal fascination with fairies, devils, elves, Zeus, the Virgin Mary and all other manner of lore that never left behind a single radar track or burned-soil sample. Then he makes his predictable tack into the Hollywood thing, about how we accommodate our insecurities and aspirations symbolically through films as divergent as “The Day the Earth Stood Still” and “War of the Worlds.”

Rather than acknowledge the apparent intelligence and high technology driving the incidents in Kean’s book, Launius falls back on his contention that “there is not a scintilla of evidence” to support the ET hypothesis behind UFOs. Which is true — none of these incidents leave roadmaps behind. And that leads him to conclude “Despite her best intentions to do so, Leslie Kean does not convince me [of extraterrestrial visitation].”

Launius, of course, missed the whole point. Kean isn’t trying to convince him or anyone else of ET visitation — the default hypothesis — but merely to confront the available evidence with some integrity. What’s a more plausible alternative for the data he himself credits for its unquestionable veracity? Launius knows better than to go there. He’d find himself on trial inside a dunk-the-clown booth, alongside all the other Midway barkers.

 Please note that at the time, Scott Heacock stated that he has made homemade hot air balloon (chinese lantern) and claimed that balloon was responsible for the whole incident. On the video clip you can see interview with police officers involved, 18 years after the incident.

In Special Reports, this week's files cover: Sightings and Subscribers Increase, Former CIA Director Claims UFOs Are Here, Moon Explosion Might Indicate Mining, The Moon can solve Earth's energy problems, Moon and Mars have artificial structures. Extra-solar Planets Reach 677, Iraqi General claims he shipped WMD to Syria, Israeli F-15s Strike Syria Nuclear Weapons Site , and Extraterrestrial Chemtrails versus Jet Contrails

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.

Sightings of UFOs were also reported in Belgium, Canada, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Russia, Wales and England in the United Kingdom.

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

Special Reports

UFO reports during July and August increased across the country for MUFON, the National UFO Reporting Center, the National UFO Center, and UFOs Northwest, etc. July had over a thousand reports. The rise in UFO reports may be the result of summer weather or an increased interest of the public in reporting sightings. Each week I send out over 8,000 emails containing Filer's Files. Since August 1^st, three hundred new subscribers have requested these files. Much of the increase is due to the excellent MUFON Conference in Irvine, California, and the MUFON website and greater interest by the public. I welcome our new readers who will start to understand the real truth and worldwide intelligence situation.

Former CIA Director Claims UFOs Are Here

Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter, the first director of the CIA stated in the New York Times in 1959, " These UFOs are interplanetary devices systematically observing the earth."

Admiral Hillenkoetter said that "behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about the UFO's. "But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense, the retired admiral said. He charged that "to hide the facts, the Air Force has silenced its personnel through the issuance of a regulation.

Who's mining our Moon?

Let's look for some of the evidence.

Moon Explosions Might Indicate Mining

NASA scientists have observed an explosion on the moon. The blast, equal in energy to about 70 kg of TNT, occurred near the edge of Mare Imbrium (the Sea of Rains) on November 7, 2005. Several astronauts claimed to have seen construction and UFOs on the Moon an explosion could indicate mining or perhaps an accident.

"What a surprise," says Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) researcher Rob Suggs, who recorded the impact's flash. He and colleague Wes Swift were testing a new telescope and video camera they assembled to monitor the moon for meteor strikes. On their first night out, "we caught one," says Suggs.

Lights are frequently recorded on the moon going back to 1540. Often the lights are noticed within or near craters for extended periods of time ruling out meteor strikes. Aristarchus is a large crater on the edge of a plateau within northern Oceanus Procellarum has had 448 recorded Transient Lunar events many before electric lights existed on Earth. It's at the upper left side at 10 o'clock just left of the red spot. NASA astronomers observe light flashes on the moon about forty times per year. NASA claims, "They're explosions caused by meteoroids hitting the Moon," explains Bill Cooke, head of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office at the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC). "A typical blast is about as powerful as a few hundred pounds of TNT and can be photographed easily using a backyard telescope."

Moon's Helium 3 Can Solve Our Energy Problems

The lunar regolith. This picture was taken on July 20,

1969 by Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin NASA: AS11-40-5878.

Lunar samples of the smooth dark areas on the Moon's surface are called Maria (plural for mare; Latin for seas) have revealed an ample source for the Helium 3 isotope He-3 which is very rare on Earth, but can power nuclear fusion energy stations. He-3 is the key to safe fusion energy reactors because there is no radioactivity or threat of explosion. Vast amounts of He-3 exist in the Seas or dark areas of the Moon. A mining process would scrape up the top soil and heat to 900 degrees to obtain the He-3 that has been deposited by the solar wind over millions of years. A ton of He-3 is worth more than 3 Billion dollars and would easily pay for the mining costs. Much of Earth's future energy needs could be met by burning only 200 tons per year of He-3. The same soil would also provide vast amounts of oxygen and other minerals. The Artemis Project provides detailed analysis of the tremendous possibilities in returning to the Moon. Error! Hyperlink reference not valid. There are indications that aliens are already at work mining the moon.

If we examine some the photos taken by one of NASA's Lunar Orbiters in 1967, we see unidentified flying objects like Buzz Aldrin stated on the History Channel accompanied Apollo 11 to the Moon.

Anomalous Structures on the Moon

Keith Laney writes, "Enlargements made from both Apollo and LO photography show anomalous structures out of the path of further deposition and wasting that have walls and buttresses higher than the natural terrain. Meteoric rain degrades them but straight walls within walls simply don't appear on levels higher than the highest points of crater flanks which some of the archeology's I've found seem to do. I believe these are remnants of structures that used to be much larger and more defined. If there is a single, ancient, long-abandoned edifice on the moon, if there is a single object indicating earlier intelligence, if there is still one recognizable rock drawing to be found, then just think what such a find would do to our conventional history. Filer's Files #07 -- 2006

Mars Twin Towers

Norman Bryden writes, "It is difficult to display an image at this file size where structures can be seen on Mars. I have selected this portion of the Mars Global Surveyor photograph I discovered to help people possibly see what kind of structures may be on Mars. Although this section is nearing the limit of resolution, identifiable structures of geometric and large scale proportions can be seen.

I know the image is not the best quality, but I asked NASA for better pictures and clarification, but for some reason NASA prefers black and white hard to process photographs, and they do not respond to email.

To the top left of the section below are two very light markings. This looks to be the top of two twin towers or buildings reflecting light. Rectangular shapes can be seen standing up next to each other below the light markings. These rectangular blocks appear to have segmented levels as would be seen on buildings on Earth. Just above and slightly to the left of the dark lower left marking is another tower shaped building. What looks like windows or portals can be seen on the sides and top. If you follow the tube like structure to the upper right corner of the image, you can see a giant arm chair shaped structure.

Other structures can be made out at the intersections of the tubes. The standing structures can be identified by the shadows of one side to the lower right and the lighter sides to the upper left, with the lightest side on the top. Thanks to Norman Bryden Link to NASA image:

A Soviet scientist who defected to the West claims that photographs taken by an orbiting satellite clearly show the ruined temples of a civilization—on the planet Mars!

The 58-year-old scientist was a high-echelon member of an elite team that has worked on Vostok I and carried Yuri A. Gagarin the first man in space. He reports in 1982, a Soviet satellite reached Mars and beamed back photographs of a large city.

Extra-solar Planets Reach 677

An extrasolar planet, or exoplanet, is a planet outside our Solar System , and 677 such planets have been identified as of September 13, 2011. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrasolar_planet - cite_note-Encyclopaedia-0

There are 34 stars with two planets, 10 with three, 5 with four, 1 with five, 2 with six, and 1 with eight. The star with the most confirmed planets is Sol, which contains 8 confirmed planets. The star with most confirmed exoplanets are HD 10180 and Kepler-11, both containing 6 confirmed planets.

A substantial fraction of stars have planetary systems, including 10% of Sun-like stars, though the actual proportion may be higher. ^[2] Data from the Kepler mission has been used to estimate that there are at least 50 billion planets in our own galaxy . ^[3] There also exist planetary-mass objects that orbit brown dwarfs and that orbit the galaxy directly just as stars do, although it is unclear if either type should be labeled as a "planet".

Using a new technique called gravitational microlensing astronomers can spot worlds one-tenth the mass of our own. Researchers have discovered a potentially rocky, icy body that may be the smallest planet yet found orbiting a star outside our solar system. "This important research, partly funded by NASA, is providing us the opportunity to search for planets that could support life," said Zlatan Tsvetanov, Terrestrial Plant Finder program scientist at NASA Headquarters. Earth size planets can now be detected.

Editor's Note : It would be foolish to assume all planets are barren without life. It is a lot of space to waste. Our UFOs are now circling Mars. We can assume advanced civilizations would be visiting our Earth. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Iraq General Georges Sada Says Weapons of Mass Destruction Flown to Syria

Publishers Weekly writes, Former Iraqi General Sada delivers a riveting inside account of Saddam Hussein's tyranny, in his new book, "Saddams Secrets" including confirmation of the existence and hiding of weapons of mass destruction. Despite being a Christian and refusing to join the Baath Party, Sada was promoted to Saddam's inner circle for his honest advice. Sada criticizes most countries and the United Nations (whose workers he accuses of accepting bribes) for their complicity in propagating Saddam's regime. But he strongly praises Operation Iraqi Freedom. Snip

General Georges Sada the second highest ranking officer in the Iraqi air-force claims that the illusive Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD's) were flown aboard 747's and 727's to Syria. They were disguised as humanitarian aid for Damascus' victims of a dam break. The specially equipped planes ran 56 flights from Baghdad to Damascus to airlift, raw materials as well as refined weapons. The remainder of the weapons were moved to Syria via 18 wheel trucks. He claims the intelligence of the US, Russia, UK, Egypt were correct until the weapons were moved. There is a large pile of captured Iraqi military documents that also prove the existence of the WMD.

Israeli F-15s Strike Syria's Nuclear Weapons Site

It was when the 69th Squadron of Israeli F15Is crossed the Syrian coast-line on September 16, 2007, just after midnight. Israeli F-16s and ELINT aircraft also participated in the raid on Syria's nuclear weapons storage sites. On the ground, Syria's formidable air defenses went dead. An audacious raid on a Syrian target 50 miles from the Iraqi border was under way.

A Shaldag air force commando team that parachuted in the target area was waiting to direct their laser beams for the approaching jets. Heavy cement busting bombs struck the huge underground depot holding the former Iraqi weapons and possible some from North Korea. Bomb damage assessment photos show the bunkers were in flames and severely damaged. Israel believes it destroyed a cache of nuclear materials.

Andrew Semmel, a senior US State Department official, said, "Syria might have obtained nuclear equipment from "secret suppliers, and added that there were a "number of foreign technicians in the country. It is interesting to note Syrian uprisings by the people continue .

Extraterrestrial Chemtrails versus Jet Contrails

Scientists are continually challenged by unidentified strains of bacteria with mysterious origins. Could some of our most crippling plagues and epidemics be traced to the darkest voids of space--or even extraterrestrial intervention? During the Black Death of the middle Ages, people reported bronze flying ships emitting a strange mist. As recently as 2011, NASA scientist Richard Hoover published evidence of life in meteorites. Is it possible that ancient aliens--as small as microbes--have shaped human history? Ancient Aliens - Aliens, Plagues and Epidemics History Channel - Season 3 Episode 7

I have flown over 5,000 hours and have seen thousands of contrails, but some I see in the sky are very different from the standard contrail. Contrails are the main products of hydrocarbon fuel combustion that includes carbon dioxide and water vapor that at high altitudes condenses into tiny water droplets and/or deposits into ice. These millions of tiny water droplets and/or ice crystals form the vapor trail or contrails. At high altitudes, super cooled water vapor requires a trigger to encourage deposition or condensation. The exhaust particles in the aircraft's exhaust act as this trigger, causing the trapped vapor to rapidly turn to ice crystals usually occur above 26,000 feet (8000 metres), and only if the temperature there is below 40 C ( 40 F). These contrails are generally not thought to be harmful to humans.

The average contrail from all types of aircraft generally dissipates very quickly, but some referred to as chemtrails seem to cloud up the entire sky for many hours or even days. I have received numerous reports from alarmed people who claim the chemtrails are coming from strange looking craft sometimes without apparent engines.

They claim these chemtrails cloud up the sky and make sudden 90 degree turns, U-turns, or suddenly stop. Many claim to see chemtrails where few if any commercial jets fly or at very low altitudes in hot weather.

Many reports indicate chemtrails form at a few thousand feet altitude behind strange looking craft without markings or insignias of any kind. People claim to see talcum like products dropping from these chemtrails. When these chemtrial products drop to the ground and are tested they include bacteria, and various harmful molds that cause disease and various ailments in people that include cancer and heart disease. Frankly, I scoffed at most of these reports until I recently was phoned by former high ranking officers who had photos of actual spraying by unidentified flying objects. It is time to be aware that some forces may be deliberately causing harm to us.

UFO Sightings in the United States

Arizona Disc

This UFO was caught on a photo we took on August 18, 2011. We stopped to take two pictures of a spectacular sunset. Two days later the photos were uploaded and one the two photos were saved as a new wall paper for my computer. I saw a spot on what I thought was the monitor thinking it was a speck of dust. With further zoom-ins it was clear that it wasn't a pixel problem or dust on the lens. The most puzzling of the two photos is of the black orb up and to the right of a bird in flight... Thanks to MUFON CMS

California Cylinder Sightings

SIMI VALLEY -- A bright white star-like cylinder that has been hovering over Simi Valley nightly since September 1, 2011, on first night of sighting I seen it turn off to view the structure, and it was a cylinder shaped object that was red-hot in color, last night it was viewed dropping in elevation coming very low to ground. My estimation is 300 feet from ground. This object is viewed nightly hovering over Simi Valley and I have witnessed it de-sending and elevating rapidly when helicopter is in vicinity. 99% sure it can be viewed tonight from dusk to dawn.

Colorado Orbs

DENVER -- My roommate and I were going out for dinner about 8 PM, on September 12, 2011, when we rounded the corner at 44th and Pecos and saw three brightly lit orbs to the south. They were leaving trails of sparks flying over the tree tops about a 1000 feet altitude near the Mile High football stadium during a Broncos game. One of them appeared to be falling while the other two were changing directions and flying around each other.

They left brilliant trails of sparks, and their movements were smooth and gentle. I have seen footage on You Tube from Oxford UK and California that matched what we saw tonight. We were driving towards the lights, and eventually lost sight of the objects through the trees. I called 911 to report what I was seeing and make sure there was a log of our sighting. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Triangle

SPRING HILL -- It was just about midnight on September 8, 2011, and I was taking Pooches my dog for a stroll, when I saw a huge bright light dart 40 degrees west and remain there. I checked periodically and it was still there sort of pulsing and changing from really bright to slightly duller and back again. It appeared to be moving in a small erratic pattern while at its brightest. This continued for almost two hours it never moved. Went in to refill coffee and poof it was gone no trace in sight. My daughter also witnessed this event.. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois Triangle

BURBANK -- From our backyard to the west at about a 45 degree inclination two objects were similar to fighter jets flying in close formation with light around the wings on September 5, 2011
at 9:15 PM. But they were flying in erratic close patterns and just not the way they should or could be doing. Then they seemed to blend together and become one ball of light until they could not be seen any longer. The whole sighting took about a minute or so and was viewed by three adults and one nine year old in our group. The objects appeared to be very similar to the link I have included. I did not have time to grab my camera... It was partly cloudy, but otherwise very clear skies.

Note: The witness's description does not appear to be similar to the image extracted from UFO Casebook. Thanks to William Puckett Director UFOs Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Iowa Movie of UFO

DUBUQUE -- I thought the sky looked cool so I got out my camera to take some pictures on August 29, 2011, at 7:36 PM. These are the first four pictures I took and I did not see the light with my own eyes. It only showed up in the pictures. I don't think its lens flare as it is moving a goes out of the pictures. I tried zooming in and taking several more pictures, but I had no luck.

Note: Sunset at Dubuque was 7:42 PM CDT on August 29 which was six minutes after the photos were taken. The Sun can cause a lens flare effect. The witness is convinced that the light was not a lens flare. Thanks to William Puckett Director UFOs Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Massachusetts Abduction

SAUGAS -- I was half sleep in my bed when I felt a presence in my room on August 28, 2011. I turned very quickly to my right when I saw a small humanoid beside me for a couple seconds. I saw a definite shape and a hand with no digits on my shoulder. I just saw a feature-less humanoid figure that was about four feet tall. He was not solid, but sort of translucent and went out of my sight like a star trek transporter would do. It seem phased or not in my space-time or inter-dimensional. I have had enough strange happenings, missing time, lights being turned off when I wake, to know this was just part of it and real. I immediately got up and sat on my bed for 15 minutes wondering what I saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Michigan UFO Contacts

HILLSDALE -- I was stargazing alone on a hill when I heard a strange humming noise on September 6, 2011. I was surprised, and unsure of what to do. It was hard to describe how the UFO moved and what it did. I couldn't move or do anything, and I suddenly felt too tired to think. I felt asleep and woke up on the little hill I was on. They also stole all of my starwatching equipment and my video camera that I was using to record what I saw for my science class. Thanks to MUFON CMS

WEST BLOOMFIELD -- I saw a single fireball like object on September 9, 2011, at 9 PM, that drifted below the 3,000 feet cloud ceiling. It was moving northeast after coming close to the airline flight path departing Detroit Metro Airport. It hovers for two minutes and flies west before ascending straight up.

Note: A check of weather conditions confirms the witness's observation that skies were cloudy at the time of the sighting. The lowest cloud layer was at 2,900 feet. Thanks to William Puckett Director UFOs Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Missouri Cylinder

ELLISVILLE -- While relaxing in the backyard deck with my granddaughter enjoying the humming birds southwest of St. Louis, on September 5, 2011, I noticed a flying craft. It was a brilliant silver shaped cylinder with a small hump and no wings moving slowly northwest. My granddaughter saw it too, as it flew over a small cloud and disappeared. She yelled for her dad to come out but he was too late. It was the size of a Southwest Airline plane.

About five minutes later, a huge brilliant sliver craft appeared in the same location that was ten times larger than the earlier craft. It moved slowly southeast for two minutes then just disappeared as if you turned off a light. I served in the military and have seen all types of aircraft, even the Blackbird. I know that was not any known craft I've ever observed. It was as large as an aircraft carrier and cylinder shaped, with a slight hump on top. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Nevada Ball

LAS VEGAS -- It was 9:59 PM on September 11, 2011, when an object looking like meteorite, but the trail behind was barely visible and it started to slow down, then it stopped for a couple of seconds and disappeared in the distance. We couldn't see the moon because it was cloudy and the moon was behind our back.

Note: Scattered clouds were reported from Las Vegas airport at heights of 11,000 and 20,000 feet. Given the flight characteristics of the object it probably wasn't a meteor. Thanks to William Puckett Director UFOs Northwest http://ufosnw.com

North Dakota Red Object

I was watching TV when I notice reddish object over the airport moving toward my apartment very slowly. I knew what it was almost right away and took photos of the object and was trying to switch to video when the object disappeared. It just vanished. I reviewed photos and to my surprise there were other objects that I was not aware of and they seemed to be some type of scouting craft. They got closer, and then the object that I was trying to photograph did. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Oregon Light

GRANTS PASS -- On September 10, 2011, I was taking pictures of the aerosol sprayed sky at 3 PM, and noticed a white round object floating and hovering and further to the left of it a bright green light. I lost sight of the green light that was like a dot in the sky. In fact I thought my eyes were playing tricks with me as far as the green light. Once I downloaded the pictures and zoomed in on both objects, the green dot appeared to have a checkerboard pattern which looked illuminated with bright white light. The white object as I zoomed in appeared almost pinkish in the center.

Note: I am unable to find the green dot referenced by the witness. The white dot is quite apparent in the photo which has been enlarged. The videos are not displayed because it is difficult to see the white object. I'm reasonably sure the witness photographed the planet Venus that was visible during the day. Thanks to William Puckett Director UFOs Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Pennsylvania Disc

RED LION/ WINDSOR -- I was out on the balcony talking on the cell phone when a large symmetrical disc shaped object flew between two radio towers on August 30, 2011. I am knowledgeable about many types of aircraft and at first thought we were seeing a C5 Galaxy coming directly toward our location. After another look I realized that the craft lacked definition. I raced to my vehicle after trying to take picture and began to travel in the direction the object. I closed in with the object, but only had brief glimpses as the area is hilly and flew away from me, but was lazy and lethargic looking in its movement yet I could not catch up with the object. The object began to pick up speed as it moved over the Susquehanna River several miles from my home, then pitched up without changing geometry and went into some clouds where I lost sight of it. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Disc Shaped Object

FORT WORTH -- At about 11 PM, on September 10, 2011, I saw about ten fire or flame like objects in the sky. I first noticed four stationary objects that started moving very slowly as more appeared. They would rise, one by one, from the SSW and move north until they faded. I live near a JRB and I can recognize all types of craft day or night and these were none of those. The objects seemed to be about a quarter the size of the moon, but it was difficult to judge the true size or distance. They appeared much like actual flames in the sky, almost like the Holiday lights covered by paper sacks people place along their sidewalks during the Holidays. A neighbor a block away called me stating he saw them too. We can't seem to find any evidence anyone else saw these things! If anybody else saw this, please say something. It's frustrating and a little scary. The neighbor and I took some pictures with our phones but, they don't seem to be very good. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Washington Lights

EPHRATA -- I was driving home alone about 9:45 PM, on September 1, 2010, when just as I crested the hill that takes me through wheat fields an object appeared to the left of my car. It was like a balsa wood airplane wing, only on end, tall and thin with a flashing single white light on each end. In the middle of the two white lights were a grouping of red lights that were flashing forming a big dot. It silently moved in an arch in out in front of me. I dimmed my lights and slowed down as the bottom flashing light lit up the road ahead of me for a block or so. The craft just slowly moved from left to right at a bit above eye level and I could see its red lights leading me to assume it was quite thin and tall. The other side had a protruding round shape opposite the cluster of red lights, glowing white with silver sides and coming from that was a glowing umbilical cord like thing. It was less than a 1/2 mile way and was well over three football fields in length.

This is a computer drawing a friend did from my description, and superimposed on a picture I took from where I saw the sighting. Thanks to MUFON CMS

OLDS, ALBERTA -- My husband and I were going to go outside on our deck to view the Northern Lights that were supposed to be bright on September 9th into the 10^th, 2011. The time was right around midnight, when I looked up to see two bright red lights coming directly northwest towards me. They were flying one above the other but not in a straight line to each other. The top was slightly to the right of the bottom one. They were very bright and got brighter the closer that they got. I ran inside the house to get my husband to come see. Then we watched for a few seconds and got my kids to come and see. We all watched the lights come closer and I kept saying "what is that?" I ran inside again and got my digital camera but when I tried to video the lights my camera froze and would not film. My son ran got my iPhone but it would not pick up the lights. About this time, they changed direction while almost right above us and travelled straight north. We were not scared but very curious and confused. Once they finished changing direction, the lights faded out like they were only visible from the front. When we checked the wind direction from the nearest weather reports, the wind was not coming from the direction that they lights came from. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Korea UFO Spotted

SEOUL -- A tiny unidentified flying object (UFO) was spotted by Kim Se-hyeon, 41, an interior project manager, saw the object, while taking pictures of the skyline around the main office building of Citibank in Jongno at 12:51 PM, on August 24, 2011. He sent the photo to a UFO analysis center in Seoul to check what the small object in the photo was. "It is highly probable that it will be a UFO when we get the outcome of the analysis made by both local and foreign photo experts, said the center last Saturday. "The UFO was pictured stable enough for the image not to be blurred, said Seo Jong-han, chief of the center.

Malta Wing Four Times Bigger Than Airliner

MELLIEHA BAY -- We are retired British nationals in the company of Maltese friends on our home roof top, which overlooks coastal Mellieha Bay on August 31, 2011. We do not follow UFO spotting as a hobby and gone up to the roof garden to observe the coastline on August 31, 2011, at 2 AM. We saw a craft northwest moving over Mellieha Bay and watched as it headed over our house, we assumed, to land at Malta International Airport. The 'aircraft' was moving noticeably slower than a conventional jet airliner but massive, and easily four times the wing width of a conventional passenger airliner. It was much bigger than any aircraft and had a non-shiny opaque silvery look about it without any emblems with white/amber lights were set in pairs at the wing tips. One light was above the other and these were quite bright.

There was also a single white/amber light at the nose tip and smaller blue/greenish lights at each wing mid-section. On the undercarriage a bright light pulsated between bright red and dull orange. The 'aircraft' as it passed above us banked from horizontal wing position to nearly vertical and turned towards a southeast direction, heading towards Saint Paul's Bay area where it flew out to Mediterranean Sea and disappearing from sight. The sighting from initial observation was fifteen to twenty minutes. It was flying at 1000 to 1500 feet up; maybe higher depending on the aircrafts size/dimensions... this was definitely a weird silent aircraft, especially with its massive size. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Morocco Photo

MARAKESH -- I took some photos by the pool of my hotel and to be honest I didn't see anything on June 11, 2011. When I went to my room and check the photos I took I realized that at the one of the it has something strange at the sky. I do not know if it is a UFO or not, I am just uploading the photo and the conclusions are yours. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Spain Red Globe

OLIVA -- On July 22, 2011, at 11:15 PM, I was talking with my brother- in- law on our terrace, and I see a big orange/red globe, burning light moving slowly behind him above the mountain. It was moving south slowly towards the beach. The sky was covered with white storm clouds and the light was below the clouds.

I asked my brother- in- law, "What was that light moving toward us? we could not take our eyes off it. We had never seen a light that big in the sky. I went running for a binoculars and when I was about to look at the light, another light the same size, same color, and going at the same speed and in the same direction rose up from behind the mountain. It was like a "Mars Attack Movie", and he stated, "Two lights are even stranger." There were two burning orange/red lights going in the same direction one behind the other. The two lights traveled a minute both going south then the second light slowly turned west for two minutes and flickered and turned off, but we still could see something moving, same direction. The light was covering that shinny oval and long object that went behind some big trees. It must have been quite big. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Russian UFO Seen Near Crash of Hockey Team

On Wednesday, September 7, 2011 a UFO was seen at the crash site of Yak-42, the Soviet-era airplane that went down near the Volga River in Yaroslavl, Russia with the majority of the Russian Lokomotiv hockey team onboard. All but two passengers on the airplane were killed in the fiery disaster. In all, 43 lives were lost in the tragic accident.

According to The New York Times, "Witnesses said the Yak-42, three-engine, single aisle plane used mostly for domestic flights, failed to rise swiftly enough after takeoff. It clipped a radar antenna, veered over a village and finished its short flight by crashing into a tributary to the Volga River." The video was supplied by a 30-year-old named Alexey with an interest in UFOs who lives in in Snezhinsk, Russia. In the video, smoke can be seen billowing from the ground into the air above the Volga River tributary where the plane crashed. The UFO is not directly overhead but off to the side above some trees. More than 100000 people, led by Russia's Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, have paid their last respects to the victims of a plane crash that wiped out most of an ice hockey team. Mr. Putin and other mourners walked silently past a line of coffins.

UK England UFO Filmed from Aircraft

UFO sightings -- An interesting video of some kind of fast lightship was filmed by an airline passenger somewhere over United Kingdom in August of 2011. Witness reports: "I was testing my new Canon 60D camera filming out of the window after a few weeks of running through the footage for other purposes I noticed what I thought was maybe light reflecting from the windows on board however looking closer I can see there looks to be more to it.

What is strange is the way the UFO appears to accelerate as it enters the frame from the left hand side of the video and moves to the right side. It couldn't be passing debris or another plane as it is traveling in a forward direction faster then anything I know of or have seen before and I am an aviation enthusiast.

oewel het ‘onweerlegbare’ bewijs voor het bezoek van buitenaardse vliegende objecten nog steeds ‘officieel’ ontbreekt, kunnen de zeldzame groep van bekwame onderzoekers (die elke optie nog durven open te laten) niet voorbij aan de onvoorstelbaar lange lijst van opmerkelijke indicaties die deze hypothese nog steeds met zich meedraagt. De algemene verwachting na de ‘eerste’ hype (eind jaren veertig), was immers dat het fenomeen gedoemd zou zijn om uiteindelijk een stille dood te sterven. Het integendeel bleek echter waar. Bovendien bleek een niet te verwaarlozen kern uit het gros van de zogenaamde ‘UFO waarnemingen’ zich duidelijk te onderscheiden van andere gebruikelijke misinterpretaties van gekende hemelverschijnselen, en blijft het fenomeen zich tot op de dag van vandaag met regelmaat manifesteren. De theorie over een mogelijke buitenaardse herkomst voor deze kleinere groep van ‘vliegende schotel waarnemingen’ blijkt in de praktijk (nog steeds) voor vele wetenschappers een brug te ver om zelfs maar in overweging te durven nemen. En hoewel een dergelijke houding moeilijk ‘wetenschappelijk’ te noemen is, is dit vanuit emotioneel oogpunt zeer begrijpelijk. Want de consequenties van de buitenaardse hypothese overstijgen ruimschoots het huidig zorgvuldig opgebouwd wetenschappelijke wereld- en geloofsbeeld.  

Indicaties versus scepticisme.

Afgezien van een ‘openlijk wereldwijd officieel contact’, lijkt het buitenaards aandoende fenomeen overal zijn indicaties na te laten waar je die in zulk geval ook zou verwachten. Het fenomeen schuwt ondermeer geen onderling bevestigende waarnemingen of observaties in groep, en dit overal ter wereld, en door alle lagen van de bevolking. Dus ook hooggeplaatsten, beroemdheden, hooggeschoolden, wetenschappers of ervaren waarnemers (zoals bv. piloten en astronauten) nemen ‘vliegende schotels’ waar. Eveneens vormen nabije ontmoetingen (met het al dan niet met het waarnemen van inzittenden); foto- en filmmateriaal; fysische sporen; waarnemingen in de ruimte; op de radar en zelfs onder water (sonar registraties) geen uitzondering. En dan hebben we het nog niet eens gehad over duidelijk aantoonbare doofpotaffaires en leugens van diverse overheden en de vele indicaties die wijzen naar ons geheimzinnig diepe verleden waar het tevens krioelt van de vreemde anomalieën, hemelverschijnselen en ‘goddelijke’ (lees: buitenaardse?) interventies. De buitenaardse hypothese mag dan al emotioneel zeer moeilijk te slikken zijn vanwege de vele verregaande implicaties en denkbare bezwaren, er is tevens geen enkel doorslaggevend argument tegenin te brengen welke dit volledig uitsluit. Integendeel, wanneer het taboe ter aanvaarding wordt doorbroken, blijken nieuwe zienswijzen onze gehele realiteit in een uiterst verruimend daglicht of wereldbeeld te plaatsen waarbij aloude mysteries als vanzelf smelten als sneeuw voor de zon. Toch dien ik wel op te merken dat het niet in de bedoeling van dit artikel ligt om nodeloos in te gaan op de onvermijdelijke oeverloze discussies tussen pro en contra ingestelde partijen. Het is een illusie te denken dat emotioneel getinte bezwaren met rede alleen, volledig elimineerbaar zijn. Uiteindelijk hebben meningen op zich, niet de minste invloed op het realiteitsgehalte van een waarheid of fenomeen. Zij kunnen enkel brandstof leveren tot het opstellen van (voorlopige) werkhypotheses. Vanuit universeel logisch perspectief dienen pro en contra immers een gemeenschappelijk doel: ‘het zoeken naar de neutrale (universele) waarheid’. Zolang een onweerlegbaar bewijs niet geleverd is (of aanvaard wordt), hebben beide partijen bestaans- en argumentatierecht bij het vinden naar een neutraal evenwicht. Een partijdige houding propageren daarentegen (zoals sceptici doen), is het openlijk etaleren van het onvermogen neutraal te zijn. Je kan immers nooit in alle ernst ‘neutraal of onpartijdig’ genoemd willen worden, om tegelijkertijd een reële partijdige mogelijkheid a-priori bij voorbaat af te wijzen. En jammer maar helaas, voor wie niet neutraal kan zijn, vervalt alle oordeelrecht! Spijtig ook dat sceptici er blijkbaar nooit opkomen sceptisch te staan tegenover scepticisme. Zelfkritiek, het blijft een moeilijke opgave.

Mysteries zijn indicaties van een incompleet wereldbeeld.

Nu de baan min of meer vrij is gemaakt, kunnen we ons wat verdiepen in enkele hekelpunten ten aanzien van de buitenaardse hypothese welke zo dikwijls door sceptici gepropageerd worden. Die hekelpunten kunnen enkel hypothetisch afgeweerd of verklaard worden door de lancering van een nieuw wereld- of denkbeeld waarbij de mogelijkheid tot interstellair verkeer een prominente plaats inneemt. En ja, naar mijn mening is het wereld- of realiteitsbeeld dringend aan herziening toe! Hoewel ik erken dat het bewijs - zoals dat geëist wordt door mijn critici - (een buitenaards toestel in een museum?) uiteraard officieel nog niet geleverd is, besef ik ook dat ‘indicaties nooit komen zonder oorzaak’ en dat ‘mysteries indicaties zijn van een incompleet wereldbeeld’. M.a.w. in een juist of compleet wereldbeeld kunnen zich geen mysteries meer voordoen. De erkenning van het UFO fenomeen als ‘mysterie’ staat hier dus cruciaal. Ik bemerk daarbij dat ik zelden of nooit een volledig bevredigende sceptische verklaring heb gezien voor een uiterst kwalitatieve ‘typerende vliegende schotel waarneming’ waarin de ooggetuige zich achteraf volledig kon in vinden. Het mysterie staat nog steeds en dit is een onbetwistbaar feit, al was het alleen maar omdat er een relevant percentage aan onverklaarde UFO meldingen overblijft. Het is trouwens uiterst hypocriet om UFO waarnemers enkel als serieus of betrouwbaar te bestempelen, wanneer de door hun gerapporteerde verschijnselen achteraf toch perfect als conventionele oorzaken aangeduid kunnen worden, en om hen als ‘onevenwichtig of onbetrouwbaar’ te bestempelen uitsluitend wanneer traditionele verklaringen ontoereikend blijken. Het meten met twee maten en gewichten is een onverantwoorde poging om het bouwvallige oude wereldbeeld toch nog overeind proberen te houden.

Het nieuwe wereldbeeld.

In het ‘nieuwe’ wereldbeeld welke ik hierna reconstrueer op basis van de vele indicaties binnen de wereldufologie en de aanverwante mysteries, is interstellair (reizend) buitenaards intelligent leven de norm, en niet de uitzondering. Alle bezwaren die tegenover deze zienswijze bestaan zijn louter gebaseerd op een éénzijdig opgedrongen schijnwetenschappelijk wereldbeeld, welk weinig of geen relevante aandacht schenkt aan de talloze indicaties die aansturen op deze reële mogelijkheid. Deze typerende ‘wetenschappelijke’ houding is trouwens niet nieuw, zo redeneerde men vroeger ook al over het mysterie van ‘de vallende stenen’ (lees: meteorieten): ”Er zijn geen stenen in de lucht, zodoende kunnen er geen naar beneden vallen”. Het zou nog een hele poos duren eer het wereldbeeld voldoende was geëvolueerd ‘of bijgestuurd’ om dat wetenschappelijke dogma te doorbreken. Blijkbaar hebben we in naam van de ongenaakbare alwetende wetenschap sindsdien niet veel bijgeleerd. Want nu luidt een andere even onfeilbare ‘wetenschappelijke’ slogan: “De interstellaire afstanden zijn te groot, zodoende is buitenaards bezoek uitgesloten”. Dit alles vindt kennelijk plaats onder het aloude motto: “De indicaties zullen ons worst wezen, want als ‘wij’ (de nieuwe wetenschappelijke inquisitie?) hebben beslist dat iets niet kan, dan is het ook niet”. Vandaar mijn begrijpelijke voorstel om het buitenaardse denkmodel toch eens serieus onder de loep te nemen. Volgens dit model zouden er naar verluidt sinds ons ontstaan (of creatie!) altijd al federaties van meerdere intelligente beschavingen hebben bestaan met een eigen ethiek en strenge universele basisregels. Eén van de belangrijke basisregels houdt in dat elke beginnende (of kunstmatig uitgezaaide) beschaving zonder merkbare inmenging het recht op persoonlijke ontwikkeling van de eigen identiteit moet krijgen. Over uitzonderlijke inmenging moeten overeenkomsten bereikt worden onder de verschillende beschavingen die het hoederecht over ons gekregen of verworven hebben. Deze belangrijke regel omvat eigenlijk de vrijheid van individuele keus en consequentie. Hoewel hogere beschavingen ons logischerwijze veel zouden kunnen bijbrengen op het vlak van beschaving leert een andere universele wet dat persoonlijke ervaring en verdienste essentieel is om blijvend inzicht te verwerven. Indien dit ons wordt ontzegd, zouden wij door het uitblijven van de persoonlijke ervaring de autoriteit en juistheid van deze wijsheid uiteindelijk toch in twijfel gaan trekken en hervallen in ‘zonde’. Dit doet me trouwens denken aan de (aan ons gegeven?) aloude parabel van Adam en Eva, welke zonder inzicht in de takken (lees: boom) der wijsheid het paradijs werd gegeven, maar waarop men onvermijdelijk terug in ‘zonde’ herviel, en daarna zelf alle benodigde wijsheid en inzicht door ‘noeste arbeid’ (of ervaring) terug moest opbouwen of verdienen. Regelrechte buitenaardse inmenging (anders dan sporadische selectieve provocaties door ‘toevallige’ UFO waarnemingen) blijkt dus een aanslag op onze eigen identiteit en persoonlijk noodzakelijk evolutionair ontwikkelingsproces. Volgens ‘de universeel logische wetgeving’ geschied (permanent) buitenaards contact dus (best) enkel op de eigen aanvraag, en vanzelfsprekend pas wanneer een bepaalde beschaving een belangrijke mate van bewustzijn en universele wijsheid heeft verworven of anders, wanneer het zelf in staat komt om het zonnestelsel te verlaten.

De buitenaardsen

Alles wat we weten over buitenaardsen komt in grote mate van vermeende contactpersonen. We dienen wel op te merken dat er wellicht geen ander terrein is dat gemakkelijker toegang biedt tot mensen met psychische stoornissen. Volgens psychologen zou hun aandeel ongeveer 2% van de bevolking bedragen. Ook hier dient het kaf van het koren te worden gescheiden. We dienen dit zeer indachtig te zijn wanneer we dit uiterst verraderlijke terrein bewandelen. Persoonlijk beperk ik mijn ‘tijdelijke kredietverlening’ (zij het onder voorbehoud) aan een schare groep van personen die (afgezien van hun buitenaardse beweringen) toch stabiel en intelligent overkomen, en waarvan hun beweringen niet onoverkomelijk in strijd zijn met die van andere vermeende contactpersonen. Ook is het wenselijk dat de contacten op gegeven ogenblik fysisch van aard waren. Dit betekent niet noodzakelijk dat ik al die beweringen zomaar geloof. Geloof is een onneutrale, niet feitelijk onderbouwde luxe, of aanname welke ik me niet kan veroorloven als neutraal ingestelde onderzoeker. Maar dit betekend ook niet dat ik het recht heb om al deze beweringen (of noem het potentiële indicaties) zomaar in alle ‘neutraliteit’ van tafel te vegen. Mijn plan is en was altijd om alle beschikbare informatie eerst zorgvuldig en onbevooroordeeld op te nemen, om dan pas later te kijken tot welke mogelijke werkhypotheses de indicaties ons voeren. Terloops merk ik op dat ik het een merkwaardige vaststelling op zich vind, dat ‘de buitenaardse hypothese’ er doorheen de jaren alleen maar sterker is op geworden. En dat de ‘niets aan de hand hypothese’ van mijn kritische collega’s (hoewel die ook niet geheel zonder waarde is) niet in staat blijkt om alle indicaties afdoend te verklaren. Wanneer alle beschikbare informatie over buitenaardsen op een hoop wordt gegooid, viel het mij tot mijn verrassing op dat er toch potentieel bruikbare parallellen opdoken die op hun beurt ergens wel steek hielden. Sommige universele aspecten daarvan heb ik reeds eerder uit de doeken gedaan. Een vaak gestelde vraag is hoe die buitenaardsen er uit zien. De meeste gerapporteerde buitenaardsen zien er net als ons vrij humanoïde uit, welke die reden daar precies voor is, is niet zeker maar er zijn verschillende verklaringen denkbaar. Heel erg frappant blijkt wel het feit dat een ruim vertegenwoordigde groep onder hen als twee druppels water op ons gelijkt, meer bepaald met blauwe ogen, blond haar en hoge jukbeenderen. In de ufologie worden deze ‘Ariërs’ (zoals ik ze eens provocerend wil noemen) de ‘Nordics’ genoemd vanwege hun uiterlijke overeenkomsten met het Scandinavische volk. Dat ze ons uiterst goed gezind zijn, en zo op ons gelijken is - zo blijkt - geen onvoorstelbaar of onmogelijk evolutionair toeval. Wij zouden genetisch verwant met hen zijn in een ver verleden. Wie zei ook weer dat wij gecreëerd waren in gelijkenis van de Goden? Sommigen van hen zouden zelfs gewoon onder ons op Aarde kunnen rondlopen gekenmerkt door hun hoge graad van spiritualiteit. De mogelijke consequenties en implicaties van eventueel buitenaards bezoek strekken erg ver. Vermoedelijk komt er ooit een tijd waarbij we ons in de toekomst zullen afvragen hoe het eigenlijk mogelijk was dat we intellectueel niet in staat bleken om de talloze indicaties van hun aanwezigheid vast te stellen.

Nasty Alien Secret Agency (NASA)

Momenteel bevinden wij aardbewoners ons in een stadium waarbij de dominerende invloedrijke machtsinstanties zich (sinds geruime tijd) bewust zijn geworden van deze buitenaardse realiteit. Maar spiritueel primitief als die (nog) zijn, domineert eigenbelang (of anders gezegd dat van wereldbanken, oliemagnaten, multinationals, en wapenhandelaars) achter de schermen van de schijndemocratie en dito gemanipuleerde persbureaus (lees: propaganda- of indoctrinatiebureaus) nog steeds op algemeen maatschappelijk belang. Daarom doen officieel ‘neutrale’ organisaties als de NASA - welke ik graag corrigerend aanduid als: Nasty Alien Secret Agency (Het ondeugend agentschap voor buitenaardse geheimen) - er alles aan om ons onder te blijven dompelen in een steriele schijnwerkelijkheid waar de buitenaardse realiteit op alle denkbare manieren de kop wordt ingedrukt. Hun taak is het absolute behoud van de status-quo en het onbekritiseerde sprookje voor volwassenen in leven te houden dat het heelal weinig bruikbaar potentieel voor ons in petto houdt. Ook hier liegen de talloze indicaties (voor wie alleenheerschappij en autoriteit nog eens in vraag durft te stellen) er niet om. En ik moet bekennen dat ik nauwelijks kan wachten tot hun vele leugenconstructies over deze geheime realiteit als een kaartenhuisje inéén zullen storten. De leugens strekken zich uit over zowat alle denkbare terreinen gaande van de werkelijke planeetcondities tot de vele verborgen gehouden spectaculaire ontdekkingen op het vlak van artificiële buitenaardse constructies en artefacten op onze Maan, Mars en andere planeten en objecten in ons zonnestelsel. Gelukkig bestaan er websites zoals: ‘Mars Anomalies’ die zich louter toeleggen op het kritisch evalueren van het ‘bewijsmateriaal’ zoals dit officieel gepresenteerd wordt, en wijst men op de talloze sporen van manipulaties die terug te vinden zijn op de vele duizenden (met vertraging vrijgegeven) officiële foto’s van diverse planeetoppervlakken. Het materiaal en de implicaties zijn nog steeds shockerend voor de dogmatische slaafse volgelingen van de wetenschappelijke doctrine. Zo blijken er talloze artificiële constructies op de Maan en Mars gevonden te zijn, evenals vegetatie en vloeibaar water op Mars terwijl dit volgens de officiële versie uitgesloten is. Gelukkig zijn er inmiddels ook meerdere getuigen opgestaan die de moed hadden om deze en andere manipulaties te bevestigen.

Buitenaardse supermachten

Het is een feit dat eens wij ons ‘bewust’ zouden worden van onze werkelijke plaats en betekenis in het Heelal en realiteit, we onszelf ook zouden gaan herdefiniëren als wereldburgers of universele wezens i.p.v. chauvinistisch ingestelde, manipuleerbare landgenoten / idioten en zo eindelijk het aloude ‘verdeel en heers’ principe zouden kunnen gaan doorbreken. En natuurlijk is dit het laatste wat onze primitieve egoïstische machtstructuren willen. Zij zien (nog) niet in dat ook zij wel degelijk baat zouden hebben bij een wereld in evenwichtige harmonie. Gelukkig blijken er (naar verluidt) buitenaardse supermachten te bestaan die op technologisch (en spiritueel vlak) inmiddels zo’n ‘almachtspositie’ hebben verworven dat ze technologisch in staat blijken om ondermeer zonnestelsels te herschikken door bijvoorbeeld omlooptijden en banen van planeten te wijzigen of planeten toe te voegen of te verwijderen. Zo verwonderen bijvoorbeeld de schrijvers Christopher Knight en Alan Butler in hun boek: ‘Who built the Moon?’ (Wie bouwde de Maan?) zich over de vele ‘kunstmatig aandoende’ eigenschappen waarover onze Maan blijkt te beschikken. Ik breng ook in herinnering dat er onlangs (2010) meerdere mysterieuze bolvormige objecten in stereo gefotografeerd werden op officiële NASA foto’s die zich abnormaal dicht bij het oppervlak van onze zon bevonden. Merkwaardig genoeg veranderen deze objecten zich van plaats, lijken ze immuun voor de onvoorstelbare hitte en overweldigende aantrekkingskracht, en moeten ze qua afmetingen niet onderdoen voor die van planeten! Voor buitenstaanders lijken dergelijke indicaties en gevolgtrekkingen er op z’n zachts gezegd ‘ver over’, maar bedenk tevens dat onze technologie ten opzichte van een bewoner uit onze oertijd verhoudingsgewijs minstens even opmerkelijk of surrealistisch zou overkomen. Als men ziet hoe onze ‘technologie’ evolueerde in nauwelijks 200 jaar tijd (van paard en kar tot computergestuurde spaceshuttles in een baan om de Aarde), dan is er absoluut geen vergelijk meer tot wat een superieure beschaving kan realiseren die ons vele duizenden jaren voor ligt op technologisch en spiritueel vlak. Het feit trouwens dat ze zich schijnbaar en vrij consequent beperken tot het levendig houden van een door hen veroorzaakte ‘UFO mythe’ illustreert hoe bedachtzaam en ongeforceerd ze ons bewustzijn geleidelijk aan willen voorbereiden. Het hangt er maar van af hoe je geconditioneerd werd tijdens je opvoeding. Voor een kind is alles mogelijk en wonderlijk, tot op het moment waarop de (geïndoctrineerde) volwassenen hen op hun beurt duidelijk maken dat wonderen niet bestaan.

In Special Reports, this week's files cover: Mars Pyramids and Tubes, Extraterrestrial Life on Other Planets WikiLeaks, Rand's Founders Held the Secret of UFOs, The Rand-Battelle Connection and UFOs, and RAND and UFOs - Keeping It all in the Family with Ben Rich, and Sun's Activity Increasing .

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington. Sightings of UFOs were also reported in the Atlantic Ocean, Australia, Canada, China, France, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, South Africa, and the United Kingdom.

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

Mars Pyramids and Tubes

Some claim that the pyramids on Mars are just mountains, with the pyramidal shape created by wind erosion. Prevailing winds are not likely to have shifted periodically with perfect symmetry. NASA also unsuccessfully attempted to produce the pyramid shape in a wind tunnel. They found airflow can cut a flat surface, but the reversed airflow and associated surface-level turbulence would prevent formation of a perfect pyramid proving that the pyramids on Mars are not natural formations. In addition, most of the dozen pyramids are perfectly aligned with the cardinal directions proving they were constructed by intelligent beings. I visited the Egyptian Great Pyramid with my co-pilot who was also a graduate engineer who examined some of the pyramid construction carefully. He noticed that huge twenty ton blocks of stone brought from South Egypt were fitted together with others in such tight configuration that a credit card could not fit between the stones. He was doubtful if we could build the Great Pyramid to the same specifications today even using powerful electric cutting tools and helicopters to lift the huge stones.

The pyramids on both Mars and Earth have unifying mathematical themes. They contain values of pi, phi, e, and t values. It is more than a coincidence that the pyramids are viewed by both ancient Egyptians and Mexicans as gateways to the stars. The name Cairo actually means Mars. In both places the ancient peoples had an extraordinary interest in the planet Mars. Both the Great Pyramid and the Mexican pyramid at Palenque were painted in part red and aligned with the rising of Mars.

Norman Bryden writes, "Take a look at this image of this step pyramid like object on Mars that looks like it was intelligently constructed." You need to enlarge the original best quality image from the links below 4-500% and then break it into sections to get the best resolution. The full image has many structures and areas of interest. I looked at the specification page and the full image is about three kilometers across from side to side. That would make the first section below somewhere around a half of a mile across. Structures and tubes at least 400 feet in diameter are apparent. These tubes appear to be transportation systems carrying water, atmosphere, and a mode of transportation something like Venice on Earth.

The light markings are three dimensional objects that look like tubes and travel ways. They go up and over each other with bridges and tunnels as well. Some structures straddle the road-like tubes. I have been enlarging sections and there is what looks like mounds with tunnels and ramps that look like aesthetically pleasing landscaping. The markings are not random and you can follow the tubes across the full image. There is a fantastic network of travel ways that start near the North and South Poles to collect the melting water each spring. M04_00291.gif -- Zorgon

Editor's Note: The National Geographic book "Ancient Egypt makes some interesting statements in "Pyramids: Building for Eternity by I.E.S. Edwards. "The ancient Greeks numbered them among the Seven-wonders of the World. Early Christian's tradition identified them as Joseph's granaries, built according to the book of Genesis, in preparation for the seven years of famine. Arab historians linked them with the Biblical flood suggesting that the written wisdom of mankind, found refuge in the imperishable pyramids of Egypt. Some say that such colossal structures could not have been built with the simple tools of ancient Egypt; the builders must have levitated the huge stones into place by magic, or watched in awe as visitors from outer space lent skills that our scientists have yet to discover. But to Egyptologists there are not mysteries about these great structures, only questions we cannot answer." Page 73.

(SBU) On January 13 Ambassador called on Dushanbe Mayor and Chairman of the Upper House of Parliament Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev at his parliamentary office. The Mayor began the meeting with a lengthy discourse on Afghanistan, thanking the United States for its contributions and sacrifices there, and saying that U.S. activities there were very important "as we enter the third millennium and the 21st century. Ubaidulloev thought the main task there was to build a sense of national identity among ethnically disparate groups, and said the United States was an example for this. He noted that "war is very dangerous", and said "we know there is life on other planets, but we must make peace here first."

Rand's Founders Held the Secret of UFOs

From its very inception the men of RAND knew much about saucers. RAND was conceived by Donald Douglas, CEO of Douglas Aircraft along with two military officer luminaries. Douglas spoke of the reality of UFOs, studied them, and setup an engineering team at Douglas Aircraft to study UFOs. The Air Force officers behind RAND were Major General Curtis LeMay (the US Air Force's Chief of Development) and General Hap Arnold (considered the "father" of the modern U.S. Air Force.)

In May of 1948 RAND was separated from Douglas Aircraft and became its own operating entity. Among RAND's earliest government reports was the release of the enigmatically titled, "Preliminary Design of an Experimental World-Circling Spaceship."

LeMay expressed deep interest and concern about the flying saucer phenomena. More than this, LeMay himself was a keeper of the purported 1947 Roswell UFO crash debris. General Curtis LeMay

This was revealed in a stunningly candid interview with the late U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater, who was a U.S. Presidential Candidate in 1964, a Major General and Command Pilot. He was the Air Force Chief of Staff, General LeMay's professional associate and close friend. LeMay's UFO involvement was related by Goldwater in a live worldwide broadcast with CNN's Larry King in 1994. The USAF had just issued its report that debunked the Roswell crash of 1947 as a Mogul balloon. Goldwater informed King that he knew the truth to be far different. He knew this, he explained, because in the 1960's he had approached LeMay about the crashed UFO issue.

The Rand-Battelle Connection and UFOs

Anthony Bragalia writes, "Since the 1940's the U.S. government has quietly engaged one of its key defense and intelligence agency contractors as a secret UFO think tank."New investigation reveals that the esteemed RAND Corporation is a "think tank" that has given far more than "passing thought" to things extraterrestrial.

Rand's hidden history of UFO involvement has been discovered to include work in policy analysis; evaluation of evidence and in advising on the potential technological advantages achieved from UFO study. Telling connections have also been found between RAND and the Roswell crash event of 1947.

RAND Corporation was established in 1946 by the US Army Air Force as Project RAND (for Research and Development) and is today registered as a nonprofit organization. It is funded through government contracts, university collaborators and by "private donors." Rand's primary agency clients include the CIA and DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.)

Headquartered in Santa Monica, CA the think tank maintains branches worldwide. Rand's stated mission is to "help to improve policy and decision making through objective research and analysis." Its work is officially conducted "for the public welfare and security of the United States of America."

Over 30 Nobel Prize winners have been employed by RAND. From physics to economics, the 2000 person think tank provides high-level information and evaluation to the U.S. government. RAND has conducted studies in weapons development, intelligence gathering and the design of sensitive underground installations for the USAF. Far more concealed is Rand's intimate involvement in UFO studies for the U.S. government.

"Like RAND- Battelle Memorial Institute was heavily engaged by government to study UFOs. It now appears that Battelle metallurgists likely analyzed the Roswell memory metal retrieved from the 1947 crash. That conclusion was drawn from a "reverse engineering of information" of the literature on shape recovery metal; by the revealing statements of two U.S. Generals; through the confession of analysis by a senior Battelle scientist and by establishing other connections.

But perhaps the most interesting of these telling connections is this: The Director of Battelle at the time of the Roswell crash -Clyde E. Williams- simultaneously sat on the Board of Trustees of the RAND Corporation!

RAND and UFOs - Keeping It all in the Family with Ben Rich

Benjamin Rich helped to lead aerospace giant Lockheed Martin as President of Lockheed Advanced Aeronautics. He oversaw the ultra-secret Lockheed "Skunk Works" division where he spearheaded the development of the Stealth bomber and universally acknowledged as "the father of Stealth technology."

Ben Rich stated some extremely revealing things about the reality and nature of UFOs before he passed on. In a letter to his friend and associate John Andrews he replies to Andrew's observations about the UFO phenomena. Andrews had written a letter to Rich in which Andrews says, "I believe with certainty in manmade UFOs. I am tending to believe there are also extraterrestrial UFOs."

Rich -In handwritten letter- replies to Andrews, "Yes, I am a believer in both categories." Andrews was a forensic illustrator and aviation model-maker. Before his own death, Andrews related that Rich went further in privately explaining that, "there are two types of UFOs, the ones we build and the ones 'they' build." Rich told Andrews of his concern that the public should not be told. But Rich told Andrews he had recently changed his mind on this and that,"those involved in dealing with the 'subject' could represent a bigger problem to citizens than knowledge of the visitors themselves." Just before he died, Andrews says that Rich confirmed to him that "items" were recovered at the crash at Roswell in 1947. Rich also told associate John Goodall, "We have things at Area 51 that you and the best minds in the world won't even be able to conceive for the next 30-40 years." In fact Rich gave numerous clues and hints about the alien reality to several before he passed.

Rand's Executive Vice President is Michael D Rich who is also Director of RAND National Security Research. A family man, Mr. Rich's own family history is very telling. His father was aviation genius Benjamin Rich.

The Sun's Activity Increasing

Mitch Battros writes , " A new X-class flare measuring an X2.1 occurred on September 6, 2011. This follows a series of M-class flares and two CME's (coronal mass ejections).

This X-class flare came from sunspot region 1283 and is directed towards Earth and should produce a significant blow to Earth's magnetic field setting off a geomagnetic storm and increased earthquake and volcanic activity. http://www.earthchangesmedia.com

UFOs Sightings in the United States

Arizona Navy Navigator Witnessed Two Ufos'

Chino Valley -- I was with my girlfriend in the back yard, and saw crows circling above us and a white floating sphere. It was the size of an aspirin and flies very slow south on July 23, 2011. Suddenly it moves a little faster and turns in an arc and higher. From the right comes a rectangle shaped cloud moving very fast that just misses the orb and speeds off. The white orb now starts to descend towards us as the rectangle cloud comes fast and crosses the orbs path. The rectangle cloud is now glinting brightly from the 1 pm high sun and flies off at three times the speed of the fighter jets.

The orb is still descending back towards us and returns back to the original spot above the tree line. I am a trained Navy navigator, and these craft hovered, moved and stopped at will in any direction, and flew from one side of the sky to the other and then back at high speeds--silently--makes me have no doubt that I have witnessed the interaction of not one but two highly intelligent and highly advanced UFOs.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Globe/Miami -- My husband and I were in our spa and were surprised to hear military jets chasing two white lights and two objects white with red lights in the sky at 7:35 PM, on August 20, 2011.. The white-yellow circular lights were faster than the other two objects in the sky. It looked like the two objects were chasing the circular lights, but could not keep up because the circular lights were making erratic moves and were much faster. One of the lights would go right, then make a change in direction while the other circular light would go left and disappear and then reappear.

They maneuvered and then split off while the white with red lights would try and follow them. At one point, there were four white-yellow circular lights and two white objects with red lights. The next hour we watched circular lights dancing in the sky making impossible erratic movements. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com/

California Orbs

Cow MOUNTAIN WILDERNESS -- On September 2, 2011, between 9 and 9:15 PM, my family and I observed a round, orange colored, bright light traveling in the western sky over the area. It was traveling at a high rate of speed and was moving southeast. Even though it was dark, I believe the sun was reflecting off of the object. It traveled in a straight line was round and dimmed. The speed was incredible as it went behind Mt. Konocti. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Escondido -- Most of the photos were taken about 35 miles north of San Diego and 20 miles inland. The daylight photos with the blurry craft zipping about are quite fascinating to me. I did not see any of the UFOs and the blurry quality suggests that they were simply moving too fast to be noticed. This occurred around an ancient complex of standing stones which has never been researched. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Colorado Cylinder, Spherical, and disc shaped craft

Denver -- On August 21, 2011, an orange radiating vertical cylinder was spotted hovering 1,500 feet above the ground in the Littleton area at 4 AM. It performed a series of diagonal moves at high velocity and seemed to vanish periodically. The same series of movements were performed by a second cylinder with the same vanishings. The two cylinders flew towards the mountains and vanished.

Two minutes later a craft appeared which was disc shaped with ten yellow then orange lights. This craft moved slowly towards Colorado Springs following a commercial plane and faded at about 500 feet altitude and a thousand feet away. I felt paralyzed. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com/

Florida Sightings

Sarasota, Lido -- We saw a stationary object flashing multi colors that hovered for 30 minutes. I saw the same type object, and photographed it with the same results in April of 2008. My wife and my friend who has a private pilot's license also saw it. I saw a photo of a similar object when the Stevensville, Texas UFO sightings were going on. I just thought it interesting that this thing has been seen and photographed in Sarasota, my home town Thanks to Bill Stockstill

JACKSONVILLE -- My wife's plane took off shortly after sunrise on June 17, 2011, flying from Jacksonville to Philadelphia and started taking pictures. She noticed a bright, shiny, object to the right of the moon. She took several pictures of this object before it streaked out of sight. She said it moved so fast she did not really see it as a flight path. It simply streaked out of view. Take a look. CMS

DAYTONA BEACH -- I was awakened by my barking dogs around 3:05 am on August 23, 2011, and took them to a nearby field. I looked up and a saw two pinkish jellyfish objects connected by rigid tentacles, the rounded spear shaped ends had flowing lights with a constant hue in between the tentacles. It was the size of a football field. I felt my female dog shaking against the back of my legs, scared. All my hairs seemed to fill with a static electricity, as the craft then shot off towards the southeast in a downward angle. I saw what was the opposite of a falling star shot up into the sky with a tail of light behind it. My male dog was back on my porch shaking. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Idaho Pale Grey Triangle

Idaho Falls -- On August 26, 2011, about 11 pm, I was outside when a movement caught eye almost directly above my head. At first, I thought it was some huge, grey bird, and then realized that unless it was a Jurassic Park resident it wasn't a bird. It was silently gliding south completely silent. It was a pale grey triangle shaped object moving at amazing speed. It just disappeared after a few seconds with undulations with a line along the wings like a straight edge.

It glided silently and very quickly above me, then faded out. I called for my adult son to some outside, and told him, "I'd just seen a UFO. I heard him say, "What is that!? as he pointed up as it was coming back and he was freaking out and the triangle circled six more times over the space of about 45 minutes. It was surreal, strange, and not anything I could identify.

I just talked to my daughter who lives about a mile from me, and her entire family saw it! Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois Triangle

Joliet -- Working at Joliet Army Ammunition Plant I was having my truck de-conned to leave our work area back in July of 2003. I noticed a silver object that resembled an octagon party balloon coming toward me. It was spinning very quickly and the sun was reflecting off of the edges of the craft like was pulsating. It flew east toward me and turned north and started to ascend rapidly. As it climbed up above the clouds, I noticed two other formations of crafts. They were in a diamond formation, with six in one formation and two that looked like they were forming a second diamond. The craft that had been flying near me then filled in the second diamond shape. My co-worker and I both watched in silence as it flew at around 150 mph. The altitude of the other crafts was about 35,000 feet with a silver reflective look to them. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Massachusetts UFO pulls cloud into 'violent' whirlpool

BOSTON -- Upon exiting the medical building I simply glanced up into the sky and noticed an unmistakable object stationary and flashing brightly in the sky on August 30, 2011. It was 2 PM, and the object was flashing brightly that was created by the reflection of the sun on its spinning clock wise motion. This created a varying degree of brightness per flash. A large cloud was passing slowly and began to approach the object. The leading edge of the cloud began to be "pulled forward" to the object. And the closer the cloud approached the more of it was pulled or effected by the spinning of the object. The cloud was violently stirred clock wise into a whirlpool around the object. The peacefully floating cloud gradually engulfed the object. I watched several more minutes for the whole cloud to pass in anticipation of observing the object again but it was gone. Seems that once in the cloud it disappeared. This object was big and so was its effect.

New Jersey Large Hovering Triangle and Disc

We were pulling a horse trailer west bound on I- 80 on August 27, 2011, and saw what I thought was an airplane with it's lights on flying very low and headed directly toward us. We were coming up a hill and the lights were about two miles away but too bright and a little to high to be a street light. As we got closer it became apparent that it was moving too slowly to be an airplane and was a large triangular shaped craft drifting northeast over the road. It made no noise and it had two green pulsating lights on either side that did not appear to be attached to the craft.

The lights looked to be ten feet off each side. It had bright lights pointing forward attached to the forward point of the triangle and lights along the back line of the triangle. I slowed down as it drifted at 250 feet over the road and disappeared behind the tree tops. CMS

Monmouth Battlefield Park -- I was camping out in the Park with my unit at this year's 2011 Revolutionary War Reenactment of the Battle of Monmouth on June 18, 2011. On Friday night several people said they saw a strange silent glowing object flying overhead. Saturday night at 10:50 pm, I was talking with my Commander when another member pointed out there is a disc in the sky. I turned and looked up and could see a round disc that was glowing light pink with an aura around the edges. It had no wings and looks like it might be entering our atmosphere. That is when I noticed it making a left turn and continue to fly out of sight.

I kept an eye out for it and twenty minutes later it appeared again flying silently and slower with a slight zigzag wobble. It slowed with the same burning aura as atmospheric reentry. The disc was about two centimeters in radius indicating this disc is huge and is entering our atmosphere at 75 miles altitude. My whole family saw it too. It looked like the space shuttle bleeding off airspeed. There were was a couple fighter jets (F-16s) flying in the direction of the disc's flight path five minute s later. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New York Cylinder

Lower Manhattan -- On August 30, 2011, around 10 pm I noticed from my apartment window overlooking the Hudson River a hovering-airborne object over Jersey City. It had a bright red light flashing regularly underneath. I knew this wasn't a plane from first glance because of its odd bulk to its shape. It was too big for a helicopter, and might be a blimp. My feeling was that it was unidentifiable by the naked eye. I watched it hardly moving, maybe progressing but very slow. But when after ten minutes it had not changed position much, I decided to photograph it. These pictures were taken with an 8 second exposure. I zoomed one using iPhoto. The object is not something I recognize and could be a balloon or blimp. It continued slowly, progressing inland away from Jersey City for about an hour, the flashing red light very prominent and visible. I pointed it out to friends. Thanks to MUFON CMS

North Dakota Cylinder

Cooperstown -- My Mom brought these photos home about a month ago from vacation. I saw this photo and said, "WHOA! She didn't notice anything when she took the picture on June 30, 2011. I believe this really is a part of the image! What it is i have no clue but can reason this shouldn't be there. Thanks to MUFON CMS

South Carolina Ufo beside Plane Traveling East

Moore -- On August 19, 2011, at 6 PM, I noticed a large disk shape craft beside an airplane leaving a contrail. Both were flying high and traveling east. The UFO was large and grey in color flying on port side of plane. It was not a reflection as there were no clouds between the plane and sun... I looked down and my child looked up and the UFO was gone. We watched plane continue to travel until I lost view because of trees. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com/

Pennsylvania Diamond

Hazleton -- I did not witness this but am reporting what a family friend saw. I received the pictures and interviewed the friend in great detail to put the report together.

Our friend, 15 minutes after experiencing the minor earthquake, went outside to look around and observed a black diamond shaped object moving very slowly. Curious as to what the object was the friend took a couple of pictures with a cell phone. He felt the silent object was large and ascended abruptly out of sight. Thanks to William Puckett Director UFOs Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Tennessee Triangle

Nashville -- I was sitting in my pool on a clear night when I noticed three lights in a triangle formation hovering southwest of Nashville. I watched them for a period of 45 minutes hovering at times. At the time it was hovering there was another small UFO flying back from one light of the boomerang to the opposite light with extreme, maneuvering. I noticed the size, was way over 300 feet with lights on the tip and at the ends of it. The lights were pulsating from rose colored to red to pink. The smaller ufo was leaving a slight blue and red trail behind it, and moved from one wing tip to the other with great speed and maneuverability. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Rectangle and Orb

Round Rock -- I was watching on the internet an experience that someone had with a UFO. I normally don't believe these stories, but this was coming from a prominent Christian, telling about an experience he had more than 40 years ago.

Today, I decided to buy a new book to read and purchased the book "Majestic", for no particular reason until I began to read what it was about, a story about the Roswell incident. I then came home and had this feeling to look out my window on August 3, 2011, but saw nothing, ten minutes later I had this feeling again to look out my window and I saw a rectangle shaped object that seemed as large as an 18 wheeler truck or bigger hovering at least a 1000 feet high moving from right to left slowly for five minutes, and then it began to move away at a faster pace until it disappeared. I took pictures because it seemed very odd that something shaped like a rectangle was flying with nothing else near it. Thanks to MUFON CMS

31 96N 99 90 W -- I was walking my dog and looked up to see this object on August 23, 2011. I watched the object, and ran to get my camera. When I returned the object had not moved and I took this picture. Yes, I had a good picture so I ran back outside to take more but the object was gone. I have a Commercial Pilot Certificate and I have worked in engineering, some projects for NASA. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Virginia Fireball

Sterling -- I saw huge orange/red fireball hovering very high in the sky on August 30, 2011, at 10 PM. I ran outside and it started moving very quickly north. Ten seconds later I was able to grab a camera and snap this picture! You really have to zoom in to see the fireball and tail clearly. Note: The witness said that this photos was quite similar to the photos taken in Knoxville, TN on August 27, 2011. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.ufosnw.com

Washington Two Lights

Tacoma -- My mother called me out to our balcony to look south at a bright light that she had seen the night before on August 28, 2011, from 10:15 to 10:25 PM. It was an extremely bright spherical object hovering above the tree line illuminating the sky around it. It was quite big and joined by another object of equal size and brightness. They seemed to fade in and out and would disappear and reappear. I captured this on my digital camera for what lasted for five minutes.

Note: Skies were mostly clear with a few clouds at 9,000 feet. I viewed the video that the witness uploaded to YouTube. The two lights would appear and disappear. At least one of the lights was visible at all times until they both disappeared towards the end of the video. Video: http://youtu.be/3BO9xJhDdnQ

Worldwide UFO Sightings

Atlantic Ocean Cutter Spots UFO

Bermuda triangle -- I was in the U.S. Coast Guard aboard the 378 foot Cutter Gallatin. We were drifting in the Bermuda Triangle and just before noon, I was tossing soda can lids off the fantail to watch them sink. The water was so clear you could see hundreds of feet down. While I was watching, a very large, disc shaped object passed under the ship directly under our keel from stern to bow. I could tell it was very deep and was huge, many times wider than the 35 feet beam of the ship.

Late that night, I was messenger on duty and was on the bridge when the lookout reported a contact dead ahead. Everyone on the bridge saw the contact. It seemed to be a couple miles distant and heading in our direction at a good rate of speed. We checked both radar and sonar and saw nothing on either. The object was just above the water but did not cast a wake. We turned on the 21 inch search light and it instantly vanished. Thanks to UFOINFO.com

Australia, Tasmania Lights

MOWBRAY -- Having just seen another ufo this year I found this website, so what I saw was two faint lights as if star lights, but they were weaving and flying in parallel coming from SSE heading NNW. My name is Ashton Priestley of 0408479577

Canadian UFO Battle over Lake

Kelowna, British Columbia - I saw something out of this world about 10:45 PM on July 2, 2007, when I saw two hovering objects in the sky. One was thin and longish, and the other was a triangle. They kept hovering there, so I got up to run and grab my camera but the next thing I know I hear a small bang, almost like a gun shot, and the longish one starts to hurtle towards earth on fire making a deep like a nuclear generator bass kind of sound.

I watched the object disappear behind a hill between my neighborhood and the lake. The triangle circled and flew lower before it climbed towards the sky at a fast rate. The longish one reappears with the fire out, and ascends at break neck speed shooting something at the triangle with a very loud bang. The triangle one was no longer visible as the longish one starts a search of the sky. It seemed like two UFOs ducking it out. Thanks to the Vike Archives & Sightings.com

China Bright Object

Beijing -- I am an American engineer who has lived in Beijing for the last 15 years and on September 1, 2011; I was looking at the sky since we are amateur astronomers. I noticed a bright object travelling southeast over downtown Beijing. I had my son and daughter come out and we all observed the object. We saw the object for thirty seconds before it went completely vertical and disappeared.

There was no sound and it was very bright. We are used to the local Chinese flying kites at night with lights attached and I can say frankly that this was not a kite.
The object was spherical with a yellow/white hue about the size of a golf ball.
I am 58 years old and not prone to fantasy but this was out of this world. Thanks to MUFON CMS

France Cylinder

Cap d'Ail -- My sister and I were in our mother's apartment that is high and hover looks the sea on September 5, 2011. Around 12 PM, we saw a thin white cylinder shaped object a 100 meters long traveling just above the water. It did not leave any traces on the water and flew a few meters from some boats. It was heading directly towards the coast at constant speed and as fast as a helicopter. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Greece Triangle

51 29 N' 14 80 E. -- We saw a bluish grey V' shaped craft, with a bit of a haze surrounding it on September 3, 2011. It seemed large in size. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ireland Circles

DUBLIN -- I was walking my dog and at the back of the houses facing me and saw a circular object about ten feet in diameter with a smaller circle about the size of a football stuck to the back of it on April 15, 2011. The larger circle was like green and white paint was mixing together and the smaller circle was a brilliant white. There was no noise as it flew about 60 feet high along the back of the houses until it got to my house and turned a sharp 45 degrees towards the open fields and Dublin Airport. I felt excited but at no time did I feel in any harm. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Netherlands Discs

Every day I go onto my roof to feed my plants and take photos to show their growth. I was taking shots of the plants on September 3, 2011, when my cousin pointed at three UFO's flying fast and quite high above us. We looked at the photos on my computer and zoomed in to see they were UFOs. I was never a believer until I saw flying disk shaped vehicles and it did scare me quite a lot because I just couldn't find any reason for what I was seeing. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Spain Pilot Reports UFO

Tenerife -- I was in North Tenerife facing west at 9:30 PM, on July 31, 2011, when I noticed a white light rapidly descending that was flashing red, with a blue flame like a welding torch. I am a former major airline pilot and estimate the position of the event at: Latitude: 28.57N, 1750'0"W. The object's speed was 1200 to 2000 NM per hour with changes in direction of 90 degrees in seconds. In my 21 plus years of flying jets all over the world as a pilot I have never seen anything like this. I never did lose sight of the object and just got tired of watching it with another witness. The two of us are in positive agreement of what we saw. I have never reported anything before like this in my entire professional flying career. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK/ England

Tamworth, Staffordshire -- This sighting took place on August 28, 2011 from 1 to 2 AM with broken clouds. I just popped out in the garden when I spotted a bright light in the distance that was brighter than stars. The light traveled towards me and flew right overhead. It dimmed slightly as it passed silently through clouds and I could make out the shape quite easily. There were no flashing lights on it and the shape was unusual and there were no wings. Note: I don't have an explanation for this sighting. The shape, slow movement and lack of sound make this an unusual sighting. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.ufosnw.com

DEEL 13 EN LAATSTE VAN DEEL I VAN HET RAPPORT - NA MEER DAN 60 JAAR UFO-ONDERZOEK NOG STEEDS ANGST OM DE WAARHEID.
Aan deel 2 van dit rapport wordt nog volgop gewerkt  en zal later gepubliceerd worden...

5. Waar staan we nu in 2011?

Na 60 jaar de UFO-patronen te bestuderen, beraadslagend over hun oorsprong, het ontwikkelen van onderzoeksprocedures en meldingsrapporten voor het bestuderen van waarnemingen en getuigen, het opstellen van internationale databanken en alzo speculerend over de betekenis van deze waarnemingsrapporten en zoekend naar gelijkenissen via computer tussen de verschillende duizenden rapporten, blijft het UFO-probleem nog even verwarrend en controversie oproepen als 60 jaar geleden. De verwarring over de betrokkenheid van de overheid in de UFO’s en in hun stilzwijgen of ridiculiseren leidde ons meer en meer naar het ontvoeringsmateriaal. We kunnen vaststellen dat we als particuliere, amateuristische onderzoekers vorderingen maakten in het gebruik van een algemeen waarnemingsverslag. Onze communicatie intern en internationaal verloopt door het gebruik maken van het internet enorm snel en grenzenloos. Onderzoeksgegevens, resultaten en informatie is via een website op internet onmiddellijk beschikbaar voor elke onderzoeker en het groot publiek. Het is nu zelfs al een vaststaand feit dat we door het internet bedolven worden onder een massa informatie over alle mogelijke aspecten van het UFO-fenomeen. Het is een hele opdracht om uit te maken welke site als betrouwbaar mag beschouwd worden, waarop informatie staat die 100% waarheidgetrouw en gecheckt is..

De laatste decennia werd de aandacht van de onderzoekers vooral in de richting van de  bizarre ontvoeringsgevallen getrokken. Het diverse materiaal, ontwikkeld uit de ontvoeringsgegevens, heeft onze aandacht gevestigd op de studie naar buitenaards leven, hun bedoelingen, hun intenties en activiteiten. Het heeft ons ruim 40 jaar gekost om sinds de waarneming van Kenneth ARNOLD het belangrijkste van wat we waarnamen te begrijpen. Arnold’s waarneming zette een kettingreactie van UFO-meldingen op gang en een publieke dynamiek van waarnemingen, meldingen, verslagen, onderzoeken, analysen en beraadslagingen, dat zich steeds opvolgde tot de dag van vandaag. Sinds Arnold’s waarneming leerden de Ufologen dat zijn en de ontelbare andere vergelijkbare meldingen en ervaringen zin hadden tegenover het eenvoudig feit van de waarneming van een ongewoon verschijnsel, dat blijkbaar doelbewust plaatsvond. Deze betekenis was even mysterieus als ondoorgrondelijk... Virtueel centraliseerde alle publieke beraadslaging over de realiteit van ofwel een bijzondere waarneming, ofwel het verschijnsel als een geheel, maar wij waren onbekwaam om tot de kern, de eigenlijke betekenis van het verschijnsel door te dringen. Wij discussieerden over de betekenis van de uiterlijke manifestaties van een innerlijk gericht fenomeen. Sinds de jaren 1990 kenden de ontvoeringsgevallen een sterke opgang. De onderzoekers waren niet langer bang om belachelijk over te komen in de studie van deze nieuwe, beangstigende ervaringen. De ontvoeringen voegden een nieuwe dimensie toe aan het UFO-fenomeen en schetsten een beeld van de ware aard achter de intenties van de “bezoekers”. Publikaties van Budd HOPKINS, Whitley STRIEBER, Dr. John MACK en nog vele andere over de ontvoeringsgevallen maakten dit aspect van het UFO-fenomeen bekend bij het grote publiek. UFO’s kregen een andere betekenis door de ontvoeringservaringen en “hun” bezoeken krijgen een andere dimensie... Zijn wij proefdieren geworden in het labo “AARDE”?

Zonder twijfel zal deze evolutie nog verder gaan! Actueel hebben wij een informatorische gegevensbank en computermateriaal ter beschikking, waarin wij al onze data en info kunnen opslaan, snel analyses maken en statistieken trekken van duizenden UFO-rapporten, gelijkenissen en resultaten zoeken, waarop wij onze kennis en hypothesen kunnen baseren. Het zoeken naar een hard en doorslaggevend bewijs blijft zeker nog doorgaan, gaande van sporen of restanten van UFO’s tot implantaten van specifieke ontvoeringsgevallen... De controversie tussen believers, nonbelievers, neutralen en sceptici blijft evenzeer doorgaan. Het eigen gelijk wordt te pas en te onpas fanatiek verdedigt, tot het extreme toe...

Wel is het zo dat de moderne UFOLOGIE aan héél wat publiek belangstelling ingeboet heeft. Het organiseren van UFO-symposia  was / is niet meer leefbaar in België. Dit terwijl het jaarlijks congres van M.U.F.O.N. is de V.S. jaarlijks nog honderden belangstellenden lokt met een hoge kwaliteit aan sprekers. De meeste UFO-groepen, zoals SVL, UROS, FUO, UFO-Belgium,... hadden het moeilijk om een tijdschrift te blijven uitgeven. De te leveren investeringen aan tijd en financiële fondsen voor een een paar tientallen lezers lagen veel te hoog. Veelal ligt / lag het resultaat van de publikatie in de handen van een paar personen en kostte dit te veel vrije tijd voor een zo beperkt lezerspubliek. Tevens bleef zo de nodige erkenning uit om te blijven volhouden...

Gelukkig in het internettijdperk werd er snel omgeschakeld naar een website, waarop alle info ter beschikking staat.  Groot voordeel was dat de info nu bereikbaar was voor een veel groter publiek en minder kostelijk...

Internationale samenwerking dringt zich meer en meer op. Het internet is het ideaal forum om dit mogelijk te maken. Het  Amerikaanse M.U.F.O.N. is een netwerk met vertegenwoordigers en afdelingen in diverse landen. De faam van deze vereniging is zo sterk dat een aantal wetenschappers niet meer bang is om met deze UFO-vereniging samen te werken. Beste voorbeeld van deze samenwerking zijn de jaarlijkse symposia en de “proceedings”, waar specifieke onderzoekers en wetenschappers de bevindingen van hun studie kwijt kunnen. Verder heb je in de V.S. een organisatie “Burgers tegen de geheimhouding van UFO-data”, die zich al jarenlang inzet om nog meer verborgen gehouden gegevens over vroegere UFO-rapporten voor publikatie vrij te krijgen.

Volgen een artikel in “Het Laatste Nieuws” van 10 maart 1982 kan de geheimste ale Amerikaanse geheime diensten, het NATIONALE VEILIGHEIDSBUREAU, niet verplicht worden de geheime inlichtingen over onbekende vliegende objecten openbaar te maken. Met deze sterke uitspraak bevestigde het Amerikaanse HOOGGERECHTSHOF een eerder vonnis van een federale rechter. Hij stelde meteen een einde aan de jurische verwikkelingen tussen overheid en burgers...

Desalniettemin werd deze vereniging een paar maanden later toch nog verplicht om files over UFO’s vrij te geven, namelijk diegene die geen gevaar opleverden voor de nationale veiligheid en voor de Amerikaanse overheid. Het vrijmaken van deze gegevens voor het groot publiek maakte de particuliere UFO-groeperingen bewust van het feit dat de overheid nog steeds ultra-geheime UFO-gegevens achterhoudt...

 Ondanks het vrijkomen van een aantal dokumenten dalen het aantal bestaande, particulieren UFO-groepen. In België werd er na een eindeloos gepalaver tussen diverse partijen een forum opgericht, waar elke onderzoeker de resultaten van zijn onderzoek kwijt kan. Het Belgisch UFO-Netwerk (B.U.F.O.N.) probeert elke onderzoeker op nationaal niveau samen te brengen. Dit lukt niet altijd en specifieke “sceptische” UFO-groeperingen zoals S.V.L. (Studiegroep voor Vreemde Luchtverschijnselen) van Wim van UTRECHT en S.U.F.O.N. (Sceptisch UFO-Netwerk) van Marc BROUX blijven onafhankelijk verderwerken. Toch zijn er sporadisch schuchtere pogingen om een specifieke melding samen te onderzoeken en te beoordelen.

Niettemin zet BUFON zijn taak verder en organiseert sporadisch UFO-meetings. Ze hebben een geactualiseerde website www.UFO.be, waarop je allerlei informatie en links kan terugvinden. Het is een spijtige zaak dat de meeste UFO-verenigingen elkaar bestrijden, elkaar de loef proberen af te steken en meestal een loop nemen met ernstig UFO-onderzoek.

Een Europees netwerk van samenwerkende UFO-verenigingen met eventueel zijn administratieve zetel in BRUSSEL en jaarlijkse of tweejaarlijkse symposia, zou de Europese Ufologie meer zeggingskracht en uniforme, goed onderzochte verslagen van UFO-meldingen geven Een droom waarover ik het 20 jaar geleden al had in mijn eerste rapport “40 jaar UFO-ONDERZOEK: de angst om de waarheid”. Misschien slaagt BUFON erin om deze utopie te verwezenlijken. Enkel de toekomst kan hier een antwoord op geven.

Indien er geen samenbundeling van krachten komt, zie ik persoonlijk dat de kleine UFO-verenigingen gedoemd zijn om te verdwijnen bij gebrek aan financiële steun en publieke belangstelling. De “publieke” Ufologie zal deels verdwijnen en in plaats zal research overblijven van een “Invisible College”, de volhardende, idealistische individuen. Het is normaal dat enkelingen niet kunnen optornen tegen de “debunkings- en ridiculiseringspolitiek” van officiële instanties; dat enkelingen er niet zullen in slagen om nog meer geheime UFO-files vrij te krijgen van de officiële instanties... Gelukkig hebben wij het internet waar enkelen via hun site hun informatie kunnen verdelen. Een groot gevaar schuilt er in deze “wildernis” aan informatie, dat je door het bos de bomen niet meer ziet..

Het nationaal en internationaal samenwerken van de diverse UFO-verenigingen met hun diverse visies is een “MUST”. Hoe willen wij, UFO-onderzoekers, geloofwaardig overkomen bij het grote publiek en de officiële instanties als wij zelf vergeten de UFO-rapporten te bestuderen; als wij zelf niet tot een consensus kunnen komen over de UFO-problematiek en onze artikels of publikaties slechts gebruiken om persoonlijke vetes uit te vechten (BUFON met SUFON, UFO-NORGE met NORDIC, ...). Alleen een consensus op (inter)nationaal vlak, het aanvaarden van ieders mening, wederzijds respect, het opstellen van gezamelijke leidraden en methodologie voor een objectieve research van de UFO-problematiek, het aanbieden van een wetenschappelijke opleiding voor “jonge” Ufologen kan het UFO-onderzoek een nieuw elan bezorgen

Onze interne verdeeldheid, ons onbegrip voor elkaars doelstellingen en visies, maken ons net vatbaar voor negatieve kritiek en ongeloofwaardigheid. Zo hoeven hoeven de officiële instanties op middellange termijn ons niet meer te vrezen. UFOLOGIE is meer dan publiciteit zoeken; UFOLOGIE is de waarheid zoeken achter het grootste raadsel van de 20° eeuw.

Zelfs indien achteraf blijkt dat UFO’s slechts nonsens en misinterpretaties zouden zijn, loont het beslist de moeite om internationale samenwerking en vrienschap op de bouwen in een wereld van onverdraagzaamheid. Misschien kunnen we zo ons steentje bijdragen tot een betere wereld?

5. Het COMETA-rapport uit Frankrijk.

Het officiële COMETA-rapport onder de titel “UFO’s en DEFENSIE: Waarop dienen voorbereid te zijn?”(Les OVNI et La DEFENSE: A QUOI doit-on se préparer? ) werd op vrijdag 16 juli 1999 in Frankrijk gepubliceerd. Het is een waardige bijdrage bij de UFO-studie met positieve aspecten. Het rapport telt 90 bladzijden en was het resultaat van een grondige studie over UFO’s, die vele aspecten van het onderwerp dekte, vooral vragen over de nationale veiligheid. De studie liep meerdere jaren  door een groep onafhankelijk vroegeren toehoorders van het “Institut des Hautes Etudes de la Défense National” (I.H.E.D.N.) en door gekwalificeerde experts op verschillende onderzoeksgebieden. Alvorens het rapport vrij te geven aan het publiek, werd het eers naar de Franse president Jacques CHIRAC en zijn eerste minister Lionel JOSPIN gezonden.

De volgende woorden komen uit de openingsverklaring, gehouden in het rapport door de Franse luchtmachtgeneraal Denis LETTY, en schetst een aantal goede backgroundgegevens over COMETA en zijn bevindingen. “De opeenstapeling van goed gedokumenteerde UFO-waarnemingen, gedaan door geloofwaardige getuigen, dwingen ons van nu af aan na te denken over alle hypothesen, die handelen over de origine van Onbekende Vliegende Objecten of UFO’s en in het bijzonder over de buitenaardse hypothese.”

Het dokument gaat verder:

            - Alhoewel geen onmiddellijk gevaar uit de waargenomen gegevens in

Frankrijk blijkt, lijkt het toch noodzakelijk voor de vroegere auditors van het

“INSTITUT des HAUTES ETUDES de DEFENSE NATIONAL (I.H.E.D.N.)”

het onderwerp na te gaan en op te volgen. Samen met gekwalificeerde experts

met totaal verschillende specialiteiten en achtergronden, worden ze samen

gebracht om een particulier detailzoekend comité te vormen, dat de naam

COMETA kreeg. Dit comité werd omgevormd tot een COMETA-associatie,

waarvan ik voorzitter ben.

Van COMETA maakte verder de volgende personen deel uit:

Luchtmachtgeneraal Bruno LE MOINE; wapeningenieur generaal Pierre

BESCOND en politiechef Denis BLANCHER. De personen die verder

bijdroegen tot de studie waren Edmond CAMPAGNE, vroegere technische

directeur van de Franse luchtmacht, eskadercommandant Michel PERRIER

en luchtmachtgeneraal Joseph DOMAGE. Tussen de bestudeerde

onderwerpen in het rapport bevonden zich: de getuigenissen van Franse

piloten, die UFO’s waargenomen hadden; nabije ontmoetingen in Franrijk;

luchtfenomenenvan de hele wereld; UFO-incidenten gebaseerd op

radarvaststellingen en politieke, godsdienstige en wetenschappelijke

gevolgen, verbonden aan het UFO-mysterie. De gebeurtenissen van 1947 in

Roswell, New Mexico, U.S.A. worden eveneens besproken in een bijlage met

als titel “De Roswell affaire – Disinformatie”. Dit deel toont aan op welke

wijze het programma van de Amerikaanse overheid succesvol werkte om

disinformatie te verspreiden om zo de belangstelling van de media af te leiden

en de waarheid geweld aan te doen omtrent de reële feiten achter de Roswell

UFO-crash.

Was COMETA een pseudo “officieel rapport”? Een aantal ufologen heeft geprobeerd het Cometa rapport te presenteren als een “quasi-officieel Frans dokument”, “een dokument dat het UFO-fenomeen een quasi-officiële status geeft”, gepubliceerd “onder de auspiciën van een instituut dicht bij het ministerie van defensie”, of “door COMETA, een ondersteuningsgenootschap voor het I.H.E.D.N.”, en verscheidene andere gelijkluidende verklaringen. Meer nog, we lezen in een aantal UFO-publicaties dat de president en de premier van de republiek “akkoord gingen het rapport openbaar” te maken of dat “dit strikt vertrouwelijk rapport naar de media is gestuurd met goedkeuring van de hoogste regeringskringen”. Omdat “het duidelijk is dat het besluit het rapport openbaar te maken van een hoger niveau komt dan Cometa, een belangrijk detail dat de journalisten gemist hebben.”

Kortweg, “het deksel is officieel van een taboeonderwerp gehaald.”

De waarheid is echter minder opwindend. De aankondiging die dit rapport presenteerde als “ Het vertrouwelijk rapport dat is voorgedragen aan de president en de premier van de republiek” lijkt een simpele publiciteitstruc op de cover van de speciale uitgave van het tijdschrift V.S.D. dat het dokument publiceerde. Zo begint G. Bourdais, die niet altijd zo gewetensvol is, een van zijn teksten met “het feit dat dit een onafhankelijk rapport is moet benadrukt worden, geschreven door een particulier instituut: COMETA.” (Gildas Bourdais: ‘Rapport Français sur les Ovnis et la Défense,’ Contact-Ovni, 3de kwartaal 1999, blz. 13). Een korte verklaring die al enkele dingen suggereert…

P. Petrakis geeft in zijn beoordeling van het Cometa Rapport getiteld “Reacties” echter de volgende informatie (Perry Petrakis, ‘La Guerre de Mondes, version Cometa’, Phenomena 1999, nr. 42, blz. 17):

“Om bij het begin te beginnen, distantieert het I.H.E.D.N. (Institut des Hautes Etudes de la Défense Nationale) zich van het Cometa Rapport: Alles waar generaal Norlain na zijn vertrek bij het I.H.E.D.N. mee bezig is geweest en heeft geschreven valt alleen onder zijn eigen verantwoordelijkheid en niet die van het I.H.E.D.N.. De persdienst van het instituut heeft verklaard “verrast” te zijn door dit rapport. Na vragen onzerzijds liet het Elysée weten geen antwoord te kunnen geven vanwege de vakanties. In Matignon (in het Elysée zetelt de president en in Matignon de premier) bevestigde M. Henri Petitgand, een “regeringsgemachtigde”, dat hij iets van het postkantoor had ontvangen: “Het lijkt in niets op een rapport. Rapporten zijn documenten waarom gevraagd is, maar in dit geval hebben wij nergens om verzocht. Het document werd ons per post toegestuurd, louter op initiatief van de schrijvers.” Het woord “Rapport” op de cover is dus nogal aanmatigend.

Omdat ik zelf een duidelijk overzicht van de situatie wilde krijgen, vroeg ik op 31 januari 2000 aan betrokken partijen (het kantoor van de president en de premier, de bevelvoerend generaal van het I.H.E.D.N. en de voorzitter van OMETA) om de status van het ‘COMETA Rapport’. Tot nu toe (3 mei 2000) heb ik de drie onderstaande antwoorden ontvangen:

• Brief gedateerd op 23 februari van generaal Bastien, van de speciale staf van de president: “In antwoord op uw vraag beantwoordt dit ‘rapport’ dat is samengesteld door leden van een instituut opgericht onder de wet van 1901 (bepalend voor de meeste niet-commerciële instituten in Frankrijk) niet aan welk officieel verzoek dan ook en heeft geen speciale status. U zult hebben opgemerkt (blz. 7) dat de schrijvers, meenden, onder allerlei andere aanspraken, de besluitvormers over dit onderwerp te moeten informeren. In die geest moet deze kopie ter informatie aan de president van de republiek worden gezien.”

• Volgens luitenant-kolonel Pierre Bayle, hoofd van de persdienst van I.H.E.D.N., “wenst het Instituut duidelijk te maken dat verklaringen van deze personen alleen hen aangaan, en op geen enkele manier de mening weerspiegelen van het IHEDN, die over dit onderwerp geen speciale informatie heeft.”

Natuurlijk kan je stellen dat zulke verklaringen misleidend zijn, omdat politieke en militaire autoriteiten heel goed weten dat UFO’s bestaan. Toch zijn bovenstaande geciteerde verklaringsstandpunten de enige objectieve realiteit over de ware status die aan het COMETA Rapport wordt verleend.

Tenslotte schrijft de woordvoerder voor COMETA Michel Algrin, in een brief gedateerd 18 april, dat “Het COMETA genootschap niet veranwoordelijk is voor de her en der gemaakte fouten in de presentatie van haar rapport. De aan dit dokument verbonden status wordt in de tekst zelf beschreven. Het rapport werd niet gepubliceerd door een tijdschrift, maar door de mediaonderneming GS Presse (uitgever van het V.S.D.tijdschrift) die zodoende een wijde verspreiding kon garanderen. Er waren verschillende redenen om het rapport te publiceren: in het bijzonder om te verhinderen dat er onjuist geciteerde versies van de tekst zouden gaan circuleren.” Hij eindigt met: “COMETA wenst niet mee te gaan in de controversiële uitgangspunten. Het blijft bij haar bevindingen in dit rapport”.

In juni 2003 werd het COMETA-rapport onder boekvorm gepubliceerd en werd zo toegankelijke voor een breder publiek...
