The Strange Mystery of the Hessdalen Lights of Norway
The Strange Mystery of the Hessdalen Lights of Norway
Located out in a small valley in the central part of Norway, in the municipality of Holtålen in Trøndelag county, is the scenic valley of Hessdalen. Surrounded by scenic mountains, it is an isolated, sparsely populated area, the largest settlement being the tiny village of the same name, which has a population of just 150 people. Not much typically goes on here, and the people live a quiet, peaceful life among the picturesque scenery away from the bustle of city life, but beginning in 1981 their serene lives would be interrupted by a spate of sightings of mysterious lights in the sky that have remained unexplained.
Hessdalen Valley
Although strange lights had been sporadically seen in the valley since the 1940s, the activity of the phenomenon now known as the Hessdalen lights really picked up and became known in 1981, when villagers in the valley were startled by a myriad of mysterious orbs of light in the sky that would regularly appear at various places throughout the valley both night and day. These lights could be anywhere from the size of a basketball to the size of a car, sometimes even much larger, and had a wide variety of characteristics and behaviors. They would usually be bright white, yellow or red, and depending on the report usually appearing below the horizon but sometimes above the mountains. They would alternately zip away at high speeds to vanish, slowly float about, hover in midair, speed up or slow down, away from side to side, or do aerial acrobatics. They would sometimes merely appear and disappear in a flash, while others were observed floating and zipping about for up to 2 hours, with larger orbs frequently seen to spew out smaller orbs. On occasion, the orbs were said to hover over water or approach or shy away from observers when approached, demonstrating what seemed to be intelligent control, and in some daytime sightings the objects were described as looking metallic. Whatever they were, they were sighted very frequently, in their peak being seen 15 to 20 times a week, frightening locals in the process.
In spite of their irregular occurrence—i.e., 15 to 20 times per week from 1981 to 1984 and 10 to 20 times per year nowadays— the Hessdalen lights (HL) have been consistently observed and possess a series of recurring features: (1) they have the appearance of a free-floating light ball with dimensions ranging from decimeters up to 30 m. (2) they are characterized by geometric structures that are often accompanied by small, short-duration pulsating “spikes” in the high frequency and very low frequency radio ranges, (3) they show an absolute luminosity that has been estimated to be 19 kW, and (4) they have a time duration ranging from seconds to hours. HL are also characterized by the formation of light ball clusters and the ejection of mini light balls. They may also show very high velocities. Furthermore, HL are thunderstorm-independent events, as opposed to other rare and poorly understood transient luminous phenomena occurring in the atmosphere (i.e., ball lightings, blue jets, red sprites and terrestrial gamma-ray flashes).
The Hessdalen lights quickly became big news, drawing in droves of all manner of curiosity seekers and UFO researchers, as well as mainstream scientists eager to get to the bottom of the mystery. In the summer of 1983, an ongoing scientific field investigation was launched to study the lights, and by the conclusion of their 1-year investigation there were 53 light observations made. More scientific investigations have been carried out as well, including one in 1985, and another from 1997–1998 which managed to capture footage of the lights in a bizarre pyramid shape that bounced up and down. In 1998, an automated station was installed in the valley, called the Hessdalen Automatic Measurement Station (Hessdalen AMS) to monitor the lights year round, collecting reams of photos of the lights, as well as various readings on scientific equipment, and there have been various peer reviewed papers on the lights published in scientific journals. Indeed, the Hessdalen lights constitute one of the most well researched mysterious phenomenon there is. However, despite all of this study, no one can quite figure out what they actually are.
The number of theories as to what the lights might be is vast. One idea is that some sort of combustion is occurring involving hydrogen, oxygen and sodium, helped along by large deposits of scandium in the area. Another is that they are caused by piezoelectricity, which is an electrical charge that accumulates in certain materials including certain kinds of rock such as quartz, crystals, certain ceramics, and even some biological materials like bone. Considering that the valley has large deposits of crystal rocks, it is speculated that these may build up a charge that is released to form these balls of light. Other theories include plasma balls, ball lightning, meteorites, mirages, igniting gases, and even the idea that the valley itself acts as a sort of battery that generates a current, as well as many other numerous hypotheses and speculations. However, no single explanation can really account for all of the different characteristics reported with the lights. Of course, the lights have been claimed to be ghosts and alien UFOs as well, and UFO researchers have long held keen interest in this place. Yet, as much as this lonely valley has been studied, the secrets of its strange lights have remained evasive, and we still have no idea what they are, keeping them in the realm of mystery and speculation.
Unveiling the Enigma: Cylindrical UFO Mothership and its Progeny
Unveiling the Enigma: Cylindrical UFO Mothership and its Progeny
A remarkable photograph, recently unearthed from the depths of the once-secret Project Blue Book files, has ignited a resurgence of interest in UFO phenomena. The image, captured on March 20, 1950, depicts a cylindrical UFO hovering over New York City, accompanied by numerous smaller objects believed to be extraterrestrial probes.
For decades, the military attempted to conceal this captivating image, offering dubious explanations such as attributing the sighting to “the moon.” The clumsy cover-up continued with the erasure of the photographer’s name from the project’s files, along with the names of other individuals connected to the case.
The image of the cylindrical UFO and its accompanying probes raises the question: why has the Pentagon chosen to disclose information about these enigmatic ‘motherships’ and their small UFO progeny now? There must be a significant reason behind this decision to bring the subject into the public eye.
The recent revelations have sparked a wave of intrigue and speculation among UFO enthusiasts and the general public alike. As we continue to uncover more information from previously classified sources, the conversation surrounding the existence of alien life and its potential interactions with our planet grows ever more fascinating.
By confronting the mysteries of the past, we may gain valuable insights into the future and our place in the cosmos. The 1950 photograph serves as a reminder that there is still much to learn about the universe around us and the enigmatic visitors that may have graced our skies.
John Lear, a former CIA pilot, passed away on March 29, 2022, leaving behind a legacy in the world of aviation and conspiracy theories. He was widely known for his claims about the unidentified aerial phenomenon and Area 51, but also for a lifetime of daring exploits in everything that could fly. He was the son of American inventor Bill Lear, who created the Lear jet and invented the 8-Track tape system.
Determined to carve out his own path, Lear delved into aviation, becoming an accomplished pilot at a young age, setting multiple world records in various planes. Despite his accomplishments, his daredevil lifestyle resulted in serious injuries from plane crashes that he should not have survived.
During the Vietnam era, Lear flew cargo planes for the CIA and continued to seek out danger by flying in and out of other hotspots. He had numerous contacts in the aerospace industry and became interested in secret planes and projects.
In the 1980s, Lear and a few friends began investigating obscure bases in the Nevada desert, which later became famous. His claims about UFOs and Area 51 and his lifetime of daredevil exploits in the skies will forever be remembered.
Lear’s appearance in “On the Record,” which aired on January 28, 1988, on KLAS TV in Las Vegas, startled the UFO discussion and told investigative journalist George Knapp that the government even housed aliens at two U.S. sites. Lear said the government was engaged in a program to gradually inform the public of encounters that had already happened.
George Knapp interviews John Lear on a 1987 broadcast of “On the Record.”

According to Lear, there are at least 70 different species of aliens. He specifically mentioned the existence of “little green men” as well as “little grey ones,” who are about 4 and a half feet tall. He also talked about the existence of “Nordics,” which are similar in appearance to humans, but are taller and have blond hair and blue eyes. He stated that one of those species was recovered from a crash and was stored on ice.
Lear claimed that there are good and bad aliens and they have all kinds of ways to interact with humans. “And what are some of the reasons? Why would they be here?” Knapp asked. Lear replied: “Genetic experiments.” He further said that “movies such as E.T., Close Encounters of the Third Kind were carefully guided by representatives from MJ-12, who is this organization that is in charge of the coverup, in order to get us ready for the release of the information that there are indeed, aliens.”
Lear believed that everything started with the Roswell crash in 1947. He claimed that in September 1945, President Truman established MJ-12, and the purpose of that was to study the saucers and cover up the existence of UFOs. He told Knapp that four alien bodies were recovered from a crash and were autopsied by Dr. Detlev Bronk.
They were named “EBEs” (Extraterrestrial Biological Entities) and three live EBEs were captured in different crashes. EBE1 lived with an Air Force Colonel between 1949 and 1952. The EBEs were kept in an electromagnetic facility called a YY-2, which was designed by Dr. Eric Wang who worked under Dr. Kissinger and was involved in the coverup of the incident since the beginning.
Lear said: “The reason they have to create an electromagnetic facility is the fact that the EBEs are so advanced, they’re there at least a half a billion years advanced from us, and probably more… And they can also disappear. But they can’t move by thought through an electromagnetic facility, so they built this facility. There was two, one in Los Alamos and one either Edwards (AFB) or at the Test Site.
Lear discussed the existence of extraterrestrial beings at Groom Lake, Nevada, also known as Area 51. He stated that there was still a living extraterrestrial biological entity (EBE) known as EBE3 and that there was a tape of an interview with this being. However, Lear did not see the tape and was unaware of what language was used in the interviewers. He also mentioned that he had been given 25 secret CIA memos on his trip to gather information, and one of the memos mentioned that EBE3 wanted to see the ocean and that arrangements needed to be made or the EBE would “disappear again.”
Knapp asked if these beings can exist among us and if they need a special environment. Lear stated that they have a special environment, special air, and can only last about 20 minutes in Earth’s air.
Lear also claimed that the grey EBEs are the ones that are most commonly seen and that there are different motives for their presence on Earth. He suggested that a deal was made with them, as they are trying to regenerate their own race. This is because their digestive system is atrophied and they could no longer eat through their mouths. Instead, they obtain hormones and enzymes from cattle and spread it on their skin for nutrients, excreting the waste back to their skin.
On March 29, 1989, Lear and his friends including Bob Lazar recorded a video of the object, a glowing disc that rose from a facility on the outskirts of Area 51 that officially did not exist. Ironically, March 29 was the same date Lear died at his Las Vegas home, though many years later. (Source)
During the interview, Lear discussed his knowledge of two incidents involving UFOs. The first incident occurred in July 1987, when an enormous UFO is said to have followed a cargo plane over Anchorage, Alaska. The second incident took place in 1975, where UFOs were reportedly seen hovering over Strategic Air Command bases.
Knapp: You’ve said before you thought that a lot of their intentions were hostile and you’ve mentioned before that a lot of the sightings around the military bases. Why don’t we see them here? Las Vegas, we’ve got a lot of military bases here.
Lear: Well, the in fact there have been a lot of a lot of reports of UFOs in around Las Vegas, not specifically over the Air Force bases. We have the Test Site and of course, we don’t know what’s going on there, and we have Nellis Air Force Base. But there have not really been a lot of sightings over there. The main Air Force sightings were in 1975. And the UFOs descended on every Strategic Air Command base guarding the perimeter of the northern United States. They hovered over the nuclear weapons storage area and they stayed there with impunity for up to two and three hours over a period of three days.
“The problem is not only just the fact that there are five and as many as 10 different civilizations visiting us. Apparently, and this is from the research that I’ve done, at least 90% of them are hostile. And when I say hostile, if not hostile, they have a completely different set of morals than we do,” he added.
The following statement by the ex-CIA pilot is also worth noting: “The moon is an artificial body that was dragged to our planet, as a result of which an ice age broke out on Earth that killed all living things.” In fact, the circumstances of the appearance of the moon in outer space are not exactly known, and no one has seen the back of the moon.
Lear also explained in his interview how Moon had been created in Jupiter and brought to Earth’s orbit about 15,000 years ago, which was nearly around the last Ice Age. Besides, he said that the Greys are on the moon as well, but mainly remain underground within huge laboratories.
John Lear claimed that NASA sent astronauts to Mars in 1966, and that the astronauts had undergone extensive preparation for the mission, including taking drugs to adapt to the Martian climate. He also alleged that those astronauts were able to breathe the thin atmosphere on Mars, allowing for longer missions on the planet.
Lear mentioned that there are several notable figures from various fields, such as military, espionage, and aeronautics who corroborated these claims, including Colonel Philip Corso, David Wilcock, Glen Steckling, Henry Deacon, Barr Digregorio and Gilbert Levin, and they are not considered as madmen but are the key figures in space research.
It is this newfound interest in UFOs that has led to a proliferation of podcasts and YouTube shows covering the topic.
One of those shows, That UFO Podcast, had Bryce Zabel, TV writer, producer, author and co-host of the Need to Know podcast, on to talk about the past few weeks’ UFO news
During their discussion, Zabel shared a story about a Reagan administration cabinet member (some speculate, based on the positions and timeline that the person is John Herrington) crying himself to sleep after being briefed on the truth about UFOs.
“Prior to creating Dark Skies, I met with my partner Brent Friedman, and I didn’t know him at the time, and he told me a story about when he was an 18 year-old and he had been hired to drive a car across the United States to deliver it to someone who was in Reagan’s cabinet who lived in the neighborhood he was at and was a family friend,” Zabel begins the story.
“And that this person was the Undersecretary of the Navy in the first term, and Secretary of Energy in the second term, and that he told Brent some harrowing things which I’m just not going to get into right now. It’s too long of a story, but suffice it to say this person felt that his very basis of reality had been challenged. That he had been briefed and the briefing wasn’t so good and I’ll just give you the one quote.
“He said he cried himself to sleep every night during the briefing period. Which apparently was six to eight weeks and Brett asked him why. And he said because I have daughters and this is the world they’re going to live in.
“And that is kind of existentially disquieting, right?
“So, I actually believe that story to be true. I mean, I’ve looked into it and I know Brent’s truthfulness.
“So I think there is a darker side to this. It doesn’t mean there isn’t a lighter side. I have not heard the lighter side in the same kind of graphic relief that I heard about the darker side.”
“I believe this to be true. And I have compassion for those in Gov that carry this weight on their shoulders,” blink-182 guitarist and UFO expertTom DeLongewrote on Twitter in response to Zabel’s story.
“I believe also, there is a lighter side that will force a change upon humanity (biologically) that will give us abilities beyond what we can even imagine possible.”

The US has been sending mixed signals over UFOs for 75 years
The US has been sending mixed signals over UFOs for 75 years
A legacy of hype, hysteria and fraud is undermining legitimate inquiry into strange objects often reported in the skies
By Stephen Mihm / Bloomberg Opinion
The spectacle of the US military shooting down three unidentified objects in the space of a week has opened the door to baseless speculations and conspiracy theories, thanks in part to the government’s contradictory messaging, which has toggled between genuine alarm and casual dismissal.
Sadly, this looks a lot like what happened 75 years ago, when sightings of what became known as unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, led to a media circus that undermined legitimate inquiry into what are now known simply as unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAP.
This legacy of hype and fraud is with us today. That is unfortunate, given that more recent sightings — many recorded by decorated combat pilots — prompted the US Congress to pass legislation that seeks to get to the bottom of the mystery. Doing so must avoid the rank silliness and deliberate obfuscation that defined our first major engagement with the issue.
Although sightings of unexplained aerial phenomena date back centuries, our collective obsession with flying saucers, aliens, “little green men” and other now-familiar tropes arguably began on June 24, 1947, when Kenneth Arnold, a businessman and pilot, spotted nine objects flying at unfathomable speeds near Mount Rainier in Washington state.
Arnold dutifully reported these to aviation officials. When pressed to describe the movement of the curious craft, he likened it to “a saucer skipping across the water.” This initial report went out across the news wires. Bored reporters eager to make something of the story ran with it, inventing details along the way.
In a few days, journalists had turned Arnold’s movement metaphor into something more material — a “flying saucer.” Arnold complained to veteran journalist Edward Murrow that newspapers had “misunderstood and misquoted me,” but to no avail. The idea of a flying saucer immediately captured the nation’s imagination, sparking a flood of alleged sightings.
Popular culture was not far behind. One month later, country singers Chester and Lester Buchanan issued the first song celebrating the phenomenon: (When You See) Those Flying Saucers. Others followed. In Two Little Men in a Flying Saucer, Ella Fitzgerald crooned about aliens with “little green antennas” who find Earth decidedly wanting and conclude: “It’s too peculiar here.”
Hollywood did its part, too, with several films about alien visitors, most of which featured flying saucers. Sometimes their occupants came in peace (Klaatu, the noble protagonist of The Day the Earth Stood Still), but for the most part, alien visitors had a bone to pick with humans — for example, The Thing From Another World and the classic Earth vs. The Flying Saucers.
US government info on “everything” to do with UFO sightings, held by the CIA, was released and published online on January 14, 2021 .
Retailers sold flying saucer wind-up toys, flying saucer kids’ pajamas and other artifacts testifying to our collective obsession with aliens. All of this went hand-in-hand with thousands of alleged sightings of flying saucers, or what the US Air Force increasingly referred to as UFOs.
Government representatives found the collective obsession with UFOs deeply frustrating. In public, they dismissed the reports, arguing that ordinary citizens, their imaginations inflamed, had mistaken weather balloons, jet planes and meteorites for extraterrestrial craft.
Yet in private, high-ranking officials acknowledged that some sightings, particularly those reported by military pilots and radar, could not be so easily dismissed. In the fall of 1947, General Nathan Twining, then head of the US Air Force Materiel Command, authored a memo on the subject. Reviewing classified data, he concluded that “the phenomena is something real and not visionary or fictitious.”
By “phenomena,” Twining was referring to craft that moved at extraordinary speeds and displayed “extreme rates of climb, maneuverability (particularly in roll), and motion.”
These aerial vehicles, he reported, generally left no trail and rarely made any noise. They behaved in ways that defied conventional explanations.
PUBLIC MESSAGING
Twining, who would go on to become chief of staff for the US Air Force and eventually chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was extremely circumspect in his assessment. Notably, he did not speculate about extraterrestrials and instead worried that a foreign nation could be responsible.
The air force’s “Project Sign,” begun that same year, studied the phenomena more closely. An initial memorandum — known as the “Estimate of the Situation” — seriously entertained the possibility that at least some of the sightings might be interstellar craft, although leaders of the air force did not take kindly to this unsettling conclusion. They remanded the memo and ultimately shut down Project Sign, replacing it with Project Grudge.
The new initiative was not a dispassionate inquiry, but a deliberate attempt to quell public anxiety. One scholarly account has described it as a “a public relations campaign designed to persuade the public that UFOs constituted nothing unusual or extraordinary.”
While it is easy to interpret these initiatives as government cover-ups, the reality is far more complicated and interesting. Their implementation reflected a genuine concern that the task of investigating the torrent of sightings would divert precious time and money from countering the more immediate threat posed by the Soviet Union.
Some strategists even feared that the Soviets might be sowing hysteria about UFOs in order to overload the nation’s air defenses. One CIA analyst said in 1952 that the spate of official and unofficial sightings had overwhelmed the military’s ability to recognize Soviet bombers.
“As tension mounts,” the analyst wrote, “we will run the increasing risk of false alerts and the even greater danger of falsely identifying the real as phantom.”
Still, not everyone got the memo. In 1952, after ground observers and radar picked up fast-moving mysterious objects over the nation’s capital, then-US Air Force intelligence director John Samford held a news conference. He bluntly spoke of “credible observers” reporting “relatively incredible things.”
That same year, a scientific adviser within the CIA warned that “something was going on that must have immediate attention.” He concluded that “sightings of unexplained objects at great altitudes and traveling at high speeds in the vicinity of major US defense installations are of such nature that they are not attributable to natural phenomena or known types of aerial vehicles.”
SUPERPOWER SUSPICIONS
However, such incidents, impossible to explain and posing no obvious threat to the US and its allies, increasingly took a back seat to dealing with the Soviet Union. Through the later 1950s and 1960s, Project Blue Book, the successor to Project Grudge, successfully quelled the nation’s obsession with flying saucers. Increasingly, UFOs became a risible punchline, akin to Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster.
Fast forward to the 21st century. In recent years, a growing number of aircraft sightings defying the laws of physics has belatedly prompted a federal effort to collect and analyze data. Meanwhile, the damage done by Grudge and Bluebook — what the US director of national intelligence recently described as “sociocultural stigmas” — has made that task difficult.
So does the fact that our newfound interest in the subject is taking place against the backdrop of a growing conflict with another rival superpower: China. The risk that Chinese espionage could become entangled with the UAP question is high.
Witness, for example, the confused and contradictory messaging around the three objects shot down last week in the wake of the downing of a Chinese spy balloon. A day after the US Air Force general overseeing North American airspace said he was not ruling out extraterrestrial origins for the UAPs, a White House spokesperson said: “There is no, again, no indication of aliens or extra terrestrial activity with these recent takedowns.”
If we are to avoid a repeat of the mistakes of an earlier era, we must avoid both the popular hysteria and hostile indifference that defined our first engagement with the issue. That means the government and the media must adopt a far more nuanced, transparent approach.
One step in that direction is to acknowledge that there might be things out there that cannot yet be explained, but should be studied with an open mind. If we can pursue that inquiry without succumbing to either skepticism or credulousness, we might finally get to the bottom of the mystery.

The UFO Mystery of Hessdalen, Norway - Researcher Dr. Erling Strand speaks with Richard Dolan about what he knows
The UFO Mystery of Hessdalen, Norway - Researcher Dr. Erling Strand speaks with Richard Dolan about what he knows
The remote village of Hessdalen, Norway may well be the scene of the longest continuously recorded UFO activity in the world. For more than forty years, people have observed -- and scientists have recorded -- highly unusual and so far inexplicable phenomena there.
Especially high activity of Hessdalen lights took place from December 1981 until the summer of 1984 when lights were observed 15–20 times per week. Since then, the activity has decreased and now the lights are observed some 10–20 times per year.
Some researchers believe that that bubbles of ionized gas are created when sulphurous fumes from the River Hesja react with the humid air of the valley. The geology also forms electromagnetic field lines in the valley, which could explain why for example orbs of light move around, but that has not been proven and it doesn't explain all the other unknown objects appearing over Hessdalen from which some of these objects appear to have involved craft under intelligent control, others have not.
Now, Dr. Erling Strand has studied the Hessdalen mystery since the beginning and speaks with Richard Dolan about what he knows.
With all the unknown small objects flying around, I thought I woud share some cases with you. So, let's get started. Here's the first case. April 13, 1964. At around 8:40 p.m. on the night in question, bus-driver Bob Fall was driving alongside the River Lea in the town of Walthamstow, England when his attention was drawn to a fast-moving aerial object that barely missed his bus as it plunged into the depths of the river. He said: “I just glanced into the sky and saw something coming towards me very, very fast. It flew straight across the road and, had I been a few yards further forward, it would have hit the top deck of the bus. At first I thought the back windows of the bus had come in and, as I turned around, I saw all the passengers looking out towards the river. There was a big splash in the water. I stopped as soon as I could to report it. The thing was at least nine feet long, cigar-shaped and silver,” he insisted. “If it had been a bird or birds I [would] have seen the wings. Besides, it was going too fast.” As a result of the media publicity afforded this event, a British UFO investigator, Ronald Caswell of Harlow, Essex, looked into the case and uncovered a wealth of data that had been almost completely overlooked by his contemporaries.
His notes state:
“I have a piece of one of the telephone wires broken by the object. A newspaper shows great coils of it on the towpath. The police spokesman’s suggestion that a duck, or even four ducks, could have broken those wires is ridiculous. Neither could a swan. The length of the wire across the river would have moved away at the pressure of a plummeting bird, and the bird would certainly have been badly injured, if not killed.” Notably, Caswell also said that he learned “…when it was late enough for the general public to have cleared off, heavy lifting equipment was brought in and a find was made in the early hours of the morning.” What that “find” was, has never been disclosed. Now, to another case of the "object" type.
(Nick Redfern) The U.K. National Archives, where the UFO files are kept.
January 4, 1965: “We have drawn a blank”: In the early part of 1996, the British Ministry of Defense (MoD) declassified under the terms of the Government’s “Thirty Year Ruling” (legislation designed to ensure that all documents, regardless of classification, were withheld from public scrutiny for a minimum of 30 years) a file that detailed a variety of UFO reports that the MoD received during 1965. Contained within the file was an 11-page report concerning an unidentified object that was seen to come down in the vicinity of March, Cambridgeshire, England on January 5, 1965. A man named Max Beran, one of those who witnessed the descent of the object, quickly wrote to the Meteorological Office Unit (MOU) at Huntington Road, Cambridge. Beran stated: “Whilst in the sunlight it remained visible, giving the appearance of a curved object. Perhaps a parachute, but I would have thought too fast for that. Before falling too low to be visible in the low sun it appeared to be falling to a point perhaps a mile or two Southeast of the town center from where I was watching. What could the falling object have been?”
The Senior Meteorological Officer at Cambridge immediately contacted his headquarters at Braknell, Berkshire, regarding Beran’s letter. Recognizing that this was a matter for the Ministry of Defense, Braknell prepared a one-page memorandum for the MoD outlining the facts. The MoD quickly swung into action. According to a one-page handwritten note contained within the file, the police at March had been directed by the MoD to look into the matter. “[The police] sent a car out to look for the object in the vicinity of the ‘Sixteen Root Drain’ but without success,” stated the note. The MoD also put numerous questions to a host of other official departments as it sought to locate and identify the UFO, including the Royal Navy, the Ministry of Aviation, and various civil aviation bodies. Whatever the object was, the MoD claimed, it was not a piece of military hardware. “Things which may on occasion fall from aircraft include external fuel tanks, drag-chutes, cockpit canopies, access panels on doors, and sometimes accumulations of ice,” the MoD informed Max Beran. “We have looked carefully into all these possibilities so far as our own aircraft are concerned, but have drawn a blank.”
Number 3: January 6, 1995: Collision course!“A close encounter between a British Airways jet with 60 passengers on board and an illuminated, triangular-shaped, unidentified flying object at 13,000 feet above the Pennines is under formal investigation by the Civil Aviation Authority,” stated the Times newspaper on February 2, 1995.The incident had actually taken place on January 6, 1995, as Captain Roger Wills and co-pilot Mark Stuart began their descent towards Manchester Airport, England, in a Boeing 737 twin jet. Seventeen minutes before touchdown, all was normal until a mysterious object flashed past the right-hand side of the aircraft at a distance described as being “very close.” So close, that the crew actually “ducked down” in their seats as the object sped past them. An immediate check with air traffic control at Ringway revealed that nothing had been picked up on radar, save for the 737 itself.
Anticipating ridicule, the crew of flight BA 5601 did not report the incident to their colleagues; however, British Airways management was ultimately advised of what had occurred. In line with set procedures, a full report, complete with sketches of the UFO, was sent to the Joint Air Miss Working Group, a part of the Civil Aviation Authority. A CAA spokesperson said that any suggestion that the object had been a UFO was “purely speculative,” adding that the investigation could last up to six months. The spokesperson told the press: “A very small proportion of near-miss situations involving untraced aircraft remain unresolved.” This was one of those “unresolved” ones.
February 5, 1986: An unexplained encounter in the skies: A brief UK Ministry of Defense document reveals the salient data on a UFO encounter involving a highly respectable source, an airline pilot who sighted a UFO in the airspace of Ireland. The report states: “5 Feb 86 5427N 0530W – Bright light passed upwards in front of A/C. A/C was crossing east coast of Ireland on descent. Light travelled towards A/C from a 2.30 position range approx. 11/2 miles and passed 1000 feet above travelling right to left 1 mile ahead. Burst of green light observed at peak of its ballistic flight. A/C ht [height] 1450 ft. CAA closure – possibly flare fired at about time of OCC by Aldergrove. Pilot considered this unlikely but no other explanation has emerged.”
(Nick Redfern) Who knows the truth of the objects?
June 12, 1982: A 500-foot-long UFO: A public service corporation, the Civil Aviation Authority was established by the British Parliament in 1972 as a specialist aviation regulator and provider of air traffic services. Following its separation from the National Air Traffic Services in 2001, the CAA became the U.K.’s independent aviation regulator, with all civil aviation functions (such as economic regulations; airspace policy; safety regulations; and consumer protection) integrated within a single, unified body. The CAA has declassified into the public domain a number of documents that tell of extraordinary encounters with UFOs, as the following, startling extract demonstrates: “12 Jun 82 Dinkelsbuhi – Large translucent object 500 feet long at 41,000 feet. ATCC [Air Traffic Control Center] requested subject aircraft to investigate this object which was found to have the form of a double rectangle surmounted by a globe (egg shape) crowned by a silver cone. Object observed by all on board.” The strange saga of this absolutely huge UFO was never figured out.
August 18, 1983:A Spotted UFO: “18 Aug 83 Florence – Unidentified flying object seen by crew. Large black object, balloon shaped with large white spot on it, observed 10 NM SE of Firenza. No attachments to object. SUPP. INFO.: Italian CAA replied no met [meteorological] balloon could possibly have been present at the indicated place or time.” Prepared by the staff of the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority in the summer of 1983, this particular report, although brief, clearly demonstrates something very unusual was seen in the skies of Florence. Precisely what was seen, however, remains unknown. Here's another: August 21, 1986: A cigar-shaped UFO and an official document. The following is extracted from a notable file on UFOs prepared by the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority in the 1980s: “21 Aug 86 Belgrade – Non UK Airmiss missile type object passed 500 ft above on reciprocal track A/C heading 290 MAG at FL 390. Object was black, cigar shaped, without wings. Belgrade radar informed on RTF. CAA closure – foreign authority advised.”
And, finally: February 9, 1962: A flying saucer and engine trouble. In February 1962, an employee of the UK Royal Air Force Police – one Sergeant C.J. Perry – was ordered to investigate a then-recent, extraordinary UFO report. The documentation prepared by Perry is now in the public domain. It tells an intriguing story: “At Aylesbury on 16th February 1962, at 1530 hrs., I visited the Civil Police and requested information on an alleged ‘Flying Saucer’ incident. I was afforded every facility by the Civil Police authorities and although no official report had been made, details of the incident were recorded in the Station Occurrence book. “The details are as follows: Mr. Ronald Wildman of Luton, a car collection driver, was traveling along the Aston Clinton road at about 0330 hrs. on 9th February 1962 when he came upon an object like a hovercraft flying approximately 30 feet above the road surface. As he approached he was traveling at 40 mph but an unknown force slowed him down to 20 mph over a distance of 400 yrd., then the object suddenly flew off.
(Nick Redfern) UFOs? Drones? Balloons?
“He described the object as being about 40 feet wide, oval in shape with a number of small portholes around the bottom edge. It emitted a fluorescent glow but was otherwise not illuminated. Mr. Wildman reported the incident to a police patrol who notified the Duty Sergeant, Sergeant Schofield. A radio patrol car was dispatched to the area but no further trace of the ‘Flying Saucer’ was seen. It was the opinion of the local police that the report by Mr. Wildman was perfectly genuine and the experience was not a figment of imagination. They saw that he was obviously shaken.“I spoke to Sergeant Schofield and one of the Constables to whom the incident was reported. Both were convinced that Mr. Wildman was genuinely upset by his experience.”
February 23, 1975: A spiky UFO: Mavis Allen had a very strange encounter on a particular morning in 1975, in an area of woodland in central England. As Mavis walked her dog through woods near the town of Rugeley, she was amazed to see a circular, black-colored object rolling along the ground in front of her. It was around six feet in circumference and had four protrusions (that Allen referred to as “spikes”) that stuck out from equal points around the middle. Allen stopped in amazement as the object rose slowly and silently, to a height of around fifteen feet and which then shot away at a fast pace.
May 1, 1994: A “Boomerang” attracts official, secret attention: Under the terms of the UK Freedom of Information Act, the following, brief extract from a much longer, and still withheld, file offers the following, tantalizing insight: “1 May 1994 – Sighting of unusual object. Member of public reported seeing a black boomerang-shaped object, which appeared to hover over RAF Northolt, above 30,000 feet, before tumbling approx 2000-3000 feet, while rotating through 180 degrees on its axis. No other reports of anything unusual received – possibly A/C in Bovingdon stack seen from odd angle in setting sun.” What all of this tells us is that reports in the skies of our world, concerning mainly small objects, is nothing new at all. Of course, none of these "things" can be said to military craft, unknown objects or alien spacecraft. Yet, what we're saying now was being done decades ago.
The Time a Peruvian Fighter Pilot Tried to Shoot Down a UFO
The Time a Peruvian Fighter Pilot Tried to Shoot Down a UFO
Paul Seaburn
The news over the past two weeks has been inundated with reports about a Chinese surveillance balloon being shot down by U.S. fighter jets just after it passed over a major portion of the country, followed by reports of three unidentified flying objects that appear to be balloons being shot down over the U.S. and Canada. Many of the reports treat this as an unheard of, never-before seen occurrence of an engagement between a fighter pilot and a balloon-shaped UFO resulting in the UFO being fired upon. Peruvian Air Force (FAP) fighter pilot Lt. Oscar Santa María Huerta would beg to disagree.
“On April 11, 1980, at 7:15 in the morning, 1800 men were in formation at the Air Base of La Joya, Arequipa. They all observed a stationary object in the sky, which looked like a balloon, at about three miles distance, and approximately 1,800 feet altitude. It was luminous because it reflected the sun. My unit commander ordered me to takeoff in my Sukhoi 22 jet to shoot down the spherical object. It was in restricted airspace, without clearance, and we were concerned about espionage.”
What was Peruvian Air Force (FAP) fighter pilot Oscar Santa María Huerta about to engage with?
Thus begins Oscar Santa María Huerta’s account of a little-known event in 1980 – what some media reports called the only known attempt to shoot down a UFO by a military pilot. At a press conference in 2009, the now retired fighter pilot revealed startling details of the incident in 1980 that is still believable to this day. At the time, Lt. Huerta was 23 years old, had been a pilot for eight years and had been flying Peruvian Air Force fighter jets since he was 19. In other words, Oscar Huerta was a very experienced pilot. The year was 1980 – a tense time. It was just a few years after the war in Vietnam had ended but the Soviet Union was still in existence and considered to be a threat by many countries. Peru had been a U.S. ally, but in 1968, a military junta led by pro-Soviet Peruvian Army General Juan Velasco Alvarado took over and the Peruvian Air Force acquired Soviet-made aircraft, including Sukhoi Su-22 fighters, transport aircraft and helicopters. The pro-American leaders returned to power in 1980, but Huerta points out that the government was still concerned about Soviet spies.
“I approached the object and strafed sixty-four 30 mm. shells at it. Some projectiles went towards the ground, and others hit the object fully, but they had no effect at all. The projectiles didn't bounce off; probably they were absorbed. The cone-shaped "wall of fire" that I sent out would normally obliterate anything in its path.”
This was 1980, not 2023, and Huerta was flying an older Soviet jet, so his weaponry was not heat-seeking missiles like the F-22s of the modern U.S. Air Force but guns firing 30 mm shells. That probably should have been sufficient if he was firing at a balloon – which he and so many of his fellow military personnel on the ground thought he was attacking. However, whatever he had just blasted did not act like any aircraft would have after absorbing such a shelling.
“The object then began to ascend, and move farther away from the base. When I was at about 36,000 ft., it made a sudden stop, forcing me to veer to the side since I was only 1500 feet away. I flew up higher to attack It from above, but just as I had locked on to the target and was ready to shoot, the object made a straight vertical climb evading the attack.”
Those kinds of evasive maneuvers could not be made by any know balloon in 1980 – not even in 2023. Huerta believed that the craft was able to either predict his actions or was somehow picking up signals because two more times he had his sights locked on it and the object deftly moved out of range. He then pursued it as rapidly it ascended to 63,000 feet. (Note: that was about the altitude of the Chinese surveillance balloon when the U.S. fighter jet shot it down.) It was at this altitude that Huerta says he realized this was not a balloon.
“At this point, I came within about 300 feet of the UFO. It was about 30 feet in diameter. It was an enameled, cream-colored dome, with a wide, circular, metallic base. It had no engines, no exhausts, no windows, no wings or antennae. It lacked all the typical aircraft components, with no visible propulsion system.”
It was at this altitude that Huerta also realized his jet was just about out of fuel. He radioed for another jet to pursue the UFO but was told it was too high. He then disengaged and dangerously descended – gliding at some points to save fuel and zigzagging to avoid being attacked. After landing safely, he estimated that he had engaged with the UFO for 22 minutes – a UFO that was still visible from the ground to Huerta and other military personnel for two more hours. He concluded by noting that a 1980 US Department of Defense document titled 'UFO Sighted in Peru' described the incident and stated that the vehicle's origin “remains unknown.”
“I find myself in the unique position, at least for the moment, and as far as I know, of being the only military pilot in the world who has actually fired a weapon and struck a UFO. It still gives me chills to think about it.”
If it wasn't a balloon, could it have been a balloon-shaped craft like this?
That was in 2009. Huerta’s purpose for participating in this press conference was to call attention to this little-known encounter and convince the Pentagon to open investigations into it and other similar engagements between military jets and UFOs. It is now 2023. We have just had four encounters with either balloons or unidentified objects behaving like balloons in U.S. airspace. It is obvious his testimony – along with the knowledge that hundreds of soldiers and officers at the La Joya Air Force Base in Peru witnessed the UFO and the encounter - did little to move the Pentagon in the years after he testified.
Forty-three years later, we still don't know what evaded the attack by fighter pilot Lt. Huerta. Will the pilots who shot down the UFOs in 2023 end up giving press conferences in ten years to convince the Pentagon to do something about them? Or have times changed?
Many people around the world have reported seeing orange lights in the sky. This unexplained aerial phenomenon (UAP) often appears as balls of orange yellow light in the sky. Many people believe these UFOs have an alien origin, leading many to wonder exactly what is happening.
Orange Orb UFO Characteristics
What are they? Why are they orange? Where do they come from? What do they want? These are just some of the unanswered questions that UFO hunters and others ask. The orange orb UFOs are different from the run-of-the-mill UFOs since they seem to have the ability to morph easily in size, shape, and even number by splitting into two separate orbs.
Unlike other UFOs, the orange ones appear to be fireballs and often bounce about in non-formation. Another characteristic is that they usually appear in clusters.

Unlike other UFOs, the orange ones appear to be fireballs and often bounce about in non-formation. Another characteristic is that they usually appear in clusters.
Reports of Orange Lights in the Sky
In 2012, NUFORC (National UFO Reporting Center) Director Peter Davenport shared with Rense.com what he called the fireball phenomenon of orange and red lights being reported.
Davenport stated that "clusters of red, orange and yellow 'fireballs' are occurring, for which there appears to be no adequate explanation." He also noted many possible explanations have been ruled out, including:
Meteors
Weather balloons
Known aircraft
Satellites
Witnesses have seen orange orb UFOs around the world, and some have captured them on video. These reports and videos reveal the color, intensity and traveling pattern of these the UAPs. Various people offer possible explanations, such as drones, satellites, ISS (International Space Station), Chinese lanterns, plasma balls, plasma entities, and misidentification. Some people believe all UFO videos are part of a hoax, while others maintain these orange orbs are real UFOs.
July 4th Orange Orb UFOs
On July 4, 2018, Isabella Linarez saw three objects in the sky that all had an orange glow. She captured them on her camera video and posted the footage on YouTube. Some commenters believed the orbs were plasma, while others claim the orbs are alien entities. Others guessed the objects were Chinese balloons since it the sighting occurred during a Fourth of July celebration.
Vero Beach, Florida
During one of Steven Greer's 2015 classes on contacting UFOS, the group filmed two brightly glowing orange objects along the horizon. Greer was quick to point out to his students that the object was not a flare, describing how flares would have dropped from the sky, not just suddenly appear along the horizon. As the group watched one orange light began to fade and appeared to drop into the ocean.
He joked that even swamp gas has been ruled out. Davenport recounted a report filed from Castle Rock, Washington by an airline pilot. The pilot witnessed three orange objects moving at a very low altitude along a rather remote road that he was traveling. He told Davenport the objects were so close he expected them to land right in front of his car.
Escondido, California
In May 2013 around 9:30 p.m. this eyewitness stepped outside from a car and noticed six orange UFOs moving about the sky in an unsynchronized manner. The witness began filming, and Extreme UFO Hunter posted the video on YouTube.
Murrysville, Pennsylvania
Similar lights have been spotted in and around Murrysville, PA:
Also in PA, Alison Kruse states she uses a $7,000 video camera, and her videos aren't color enhanced. She states she also uses night vision to reveal that when the UFOs seem to disappear, they can still be seen using night vision technology.
Wakefield, Rhode Island
On October 16, 2016, from 8:15 to 8:30 PM EDT, a woman witnessed an orange molten object shining multiple lights onto the ground in a searching manner. Moon gazing at the "blood moon," the woman reported the moon was suddenly blacked out by a "sparkler type material" that she related to appearing like fireworks. This quickly transformed into a brilliant orange molten object that moved very slowly in a northern, then southern, direction. The woman stated the object appeared to be coming towards her. Frightened, she ran into her house. The entire episode lasted 15 minutes.
Lafayette, Colorado
Alex Lankhorst posted two videos of the UFOs he witnessed while on vacation in March 2011. He filmed the UFOs from his cousin's backyard. He states this is the same incident that was featured on a National Geographic UFO documentary. Alex writes the lights remained in a triangular formation as they moved through the night sky, and they watched the lights for nearly 20 minutes. He states that when the lights finally disappeared, they did so one at a time.
St. Neots, Cambridgeshire, UK
In October 2015, the Daily Mirror reported that at 7 am, Kirstie Hockley of St Neots (Cambridgeshire) was cooking breakfast when she saw a strange orange UFO out the window. Grabbing her phone, she began recording the object as it shot upward into the atmosphere. The video (as seen on the Daily Mirror site) reveals two streams of orange light moving through the sky and within seconds, it becomes no more than a microdot.
Melbourne, Australia
This YouTube video doesn't have much information other than that it was filmed in Melbourne, Australia and depicts a flowing orange UFO gliding soundlessly through the night sky. The photographer shows the image with a filter, and you can see the distinct outline of a metallic object with a yellowish core and the orange light radiating in a brilliant glow.
New Zealand and Oceania
New Zealand and Oceania are reporting an increase in the number of UFOs. The flurry has stirred fears and rumors of an impending alien invasion.
The increase in New Zealand UFO sightings is particularly significant since the country has only had 10 UFO reports over the previous six-year period. In 2015, orange and red lights were seen in the Christchurch area. These were the same type of lights people claimed to have been seen in 2013, only the UFOs were seen along the Bay of Plenty and Hamilton, North Island.
The New Zealand's Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) confirmed the 2015 sightings. A March 2016 report was highly unusual. Witnesses saw what could only be termed as a falling light. The subsequent investigation of the phenomena concluded that the object descent had been too slow for a meteor but was also too fast for a plane. There hasn't been any explanation for the falling light or the orange glowing orbs of light.
Cork, Ireland
This video is very unstable, but it does reveal a startling visual of several brilliantly glowing orange objects moving across the sky in Cork, Ireland. No information about the video is offered on the YouTube pages, but it's quite a capture of orange UFOs.
What Does It All Mean?
According to a June 2016 article in the Daily Mirror, the increase in orange orb UFOs has fueled conspiracy theories. One such theory is that the Earth is being invaded. Another one postulates that the aliens are on the verge of revealing themselves to the world. The mystery behind these sightings makes them all the more unusual and exciting.
UFOs and Flying Triangles: And One of the Most Important Government UFO Documents
UFOs and Flying Triangles: And One of the Most Important Government UFO Documents
Nick Redfern
My previous article was on the matter of U.K. police officer Colin Perks, who had a close encounter, late at night, in 1966. Today, I'm going to share with you an even more important case. With that said, let's begin. While digging through a whole host of formerly classified files on UFOs at the U.K. National Archives, I came across a one-page report dated 28 March 1965 that, I confess, I almost overlooked. On closer inspection, however, I realized that it was potentially one of the most important UFO-related documents that I had ever come across. According to the MoD paperwork, on the night in question one Jeffrey Brown saw at approximately 9.30 p.m. over moor-land near Richmond, North Yorkshire: "Nine or ten objects – in close triangular formation each about 100ft long – orange illumination below – each triangular in shape with rounded corners, making low humming noise."
Interestingly, the "rounded corners" and "low humming noise" are precisely what many witnesses to Flying Triangle-style UFO encounters are reporting today – in a world-wide capacity, no less. Recognizing the significance of this, I made a photocopy of the document and set about locating Jeffrey Brown. This did not prove to be a difficult task, as he still resides at the same address that he was living in 1965. I introduced myself and explained that I had located at the National Archives a copy of the original report that dealt with his sighting all those years ago. It is fair to say that Jeffrey Brown was shocked, to say the least, to find that details of his long-gone encounter had been kept on file by the MoD for more than thirty years.
(Nick Redfern) The late ufologist Omar Fowler and his model of a Flying Triangle.
"Yes, I did send in a report all those years ago," Brown said to me, "but I didn’t think they would have kept it all this time," he told me, with astonishment in his voice. Today, employed as a clerk by the Ministry of Defense (the very people who investigated his UFO sighting in 1965), he relates the facts of his incredible encounter. As Jeffrey Brown explains, on 28 March 1965 at approximately 9.30 p.m., he had been driving through the North Yorkshire moors; on approaching the village of Skeeby, near Richmond, however, the engine of his car began to splutter and die. "It was a 1951 Ford," he stated, adding with some humor, "and it was a good car but a bit unpredictable at times. I didn’t want to break down on the moor because it was icy cold and the nights were still dark. I got out of the car to have a look at the engine and that’s when I saw this light." Brown continues. ‘At first, because it was so dark, I wondered if it might be a weather balloon. But then I had a good look at it over the hedge and realised how big it was and how low down it was. It was about one hundred feet from end-to-end, about one hundred feet above the moors and shaped like a huge triangle and white, milky-white in colour. It kept coming towards me and then stopped about two hundred yards from me over the moors. It hovered for a while – nothing came out of it, but there was a light below it that just pulsated like a light bulb. There could have been quite a few lights on it but from a distance the light just looked like a glow. Then without a warning, it just took off at a speed that isn’t recognised. Good gracious, I thought, it must be a UFO."
"As it shot up, not vertically but at an angle, it joined a group of others that were identical and that were in a triangular or V-formation. The others were very, very high; a whole fleet of them. They all then headed south, I think, at a tremendous speed and disappeared over the horizon. I saw the main one for no more than a couple of minutes,’ Brown recalls, "but after they had gone I was still stood by the moor watching this fleet disappear. I waited in case something else exciting happened, but of course it didn’t." Curiously, shortly after the encounter and after having reported the incident to the Ministry of Defence at Whitehall, Jeffrey Brown began to notice ‘awful red marks on my skin which were like a stretch mark, but they were like a deep salmon red and they kept coming and going. But I didn’t have them before." The most bizarre angle of the entire episode was still to come, however, as Brown now graphically illustrates. "For about eighteen months after the sighting, I would get strange telephone calls from people. These would be every two or three months. They just phoned out of the blue but didn’t introduce themselves. They just said they were from some bureau or other. They didn’t mention the name of the bureau but kept mentioning “sightings” and asked whether I had seen anything else strange. Had any men come to interview me?"
Jeffrey Brown was never visited by anyone with regard to his Flying Triangle encounter, nor did the MoD ever offer an explanation as to what it was that he saw on that fateful night in March 1965. To this day, however, that series of strange and unnerving telephone calls continues to mystify Brown, primarily because aside from informing the MoD of what had occurred, he made no other report – either official or unofficial – with anyone and kept the details to himself; as he is at pains to point out. "The only report I ever made was the one I sent to the MoD. It was so exciting that I had to tell someone." Jeffery Brown’s important testimony raises a number of vital questions. Why was someone so determined to find out if he had received any strange visits with regard to his encounter? Why the interest in knowing if he had had any other unusual encounters of a UFO nature? And most important of all: who was his mysterious caller? Now, let's take a look at today's "Flying Triangle"-type of UFO. In their 1988 book, Night Siege, authors Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Philip J. Imbrogno and Bob Pratt wrote: “Can 7,000 eyewitnesses be wrong? They were there to witness the huge, hovering object in the sky, the flashing lights, the eerie silence. They are ordinary people from all walks of life: stay-at-home moms, kids, business people, engineers. They tell their stories here, and they all agree on one thing: they saw the same massive object cruising over their backyards. And it was like nothing they had seen before…”
(Nick Redfern) Do the Flying Triangles fly out of Area 51?
At the time when the Hudson Valley encounters were at their peak, it was reasonably assumed by UFO researchers just about here, there and everywhere that aliens had invaded and were scoping out the area to a massive degree. When, however, the Stealth planes were unleashed in 1988 – planes that looked eerily like the Hudson Valley “UFOs,” more than a few of those same ufologists came to wonder if what was seen over Hudson Valley was actually a top secret variation on the Stealth Fighter and the Stealth Bomber. Regardless of whether or not the Hudson Valley UFOs originated in the United States, or on a world far, far away, one of the most intriguing revelations that surfaced when the Stealth planes were revealed was the startling fact that they had been secretly flying not just for a few years, but since the 1970s – at Area 51. And, the secret (the top secret) had been skillfully contained for more than a decade.
In July 1997, the Staffordshire, U.K., town of Rugeley was once again the targeted by mysterious activities. The now-deceased Omar Fowler, a Derby based UFO investigator, was given the details by the witness. "[His] attention was attracted by a noise similar to a high-revving two-stroke engine outside his home,’ states Fowler. ‘He went outside in the darkness and saw hovering lights approximately one hundred and fifty yards away and one hundred and fifty feet up from the ground. [He] went indoors and fetched his binoculars and was able to make out the shape of a black helicopter in the vicinity of the lights. [He] had a night vision scope indoors and he returned with this a few minutes later. He then viewed the aircraft again. He saw the helicopter clearly, as it was illuminated by the flashing strobe and navigation lights. He described it as being similar to the Airwolf from the TV series.
"He then switched on the infrared beam and immediately noticed that there was a completely blacked out, triangular craft adjacent to the helicopter. “I couldn’t believe my eyes!” he commented. The triangle, which was a similar size to the helicopter, reflected light from the strobe/navigation lights and appeared to have no visible means of support in the hovering mode (no noise was heard). He began to approach the two hovering craft, while looking through his night scope. It is a foregone conclusion that the helicopter was equipped with night vision equipment, because as [he] approached, the helicopter suddenly moved away at an incredible rate of knots. It disappeared like a rocket. The triangle remained for a moment and then moved away and out of sight!" In this particular instance, the presence of an apparent military helicopter in close proximity to the UFO suggests the strong possibility that the Flying Triangle was some form of wholly terrestrial aircraft undergoing secret trials. Aurora? And a black helicopter developed at Area 51? Very possibly.
Now, let's take a look at another angle of all this: One of the more interesting documents that demonstrates post-1969 interest in the UFO puzzle focuses on those strange Flying Triangles - specifically over Belgium in the 1989-1990 time-frame. It originates with the U.S. Department of Defense and is titled "Belgium and the UFO Issue." Circulated widely among the U.S. Intelligence community, it reveals the following: "Numerous UFO sightings have been made in Belgium since Nov 89. The credibility of some individuals making the reports is good...Investigation by BAF [Belgian Air Force] continues."
"Source A cites Mr. Leon Brenig,a 43-year-old professor at the Free University of Brussels in the field of statistics and physics...Mr. Brenig was driving on the Ardennes autoroute in the Beaufays region east of Liege, Sunday, 18 March 1990 at 2030 hours when he observed an airborne object approaching in his direction from the North. It was in the form of a triangle...and had a yellow light surrounding it with a reddish center varying in intensity. Altitude appeared to be 500-1000 meters, moving at a slow speed with no sound. It did not move or behave like an aircraft." "Source B," the document reveals, "...discusses a Belgian television interview with Colonel Wil De Brouwer, Chief of Operations for the BAF...De Brouwer noted the large number of reported sightings, particularly in NOV 89 in the Liege area and that the BAF and MOD [Ministry of Defense] are taking the issue seriously. BAF experts have not been able to explain the phenomena either."
Moving on, we have the following: "De Brouwer specifically addressed the possibility of the objects being USAF B-2 or F-117 Stealth aircraft which would not appear on Belgian radar, but might be sighted visually if they were operating at low altitude in the Ardennes area. He made it quite clear that no USAF overflight requests had ever been received for this type of mission and that the alleged observations did not correspond in any way to the observable characteristics of either U.S. aircraft." We're then provided with the story of a very credible source: "[Deleted] related a similar UFO sighting which apparently happened to a Belgian Air Force officer in the same area near Liege during November 89. The officer and his wife were allegedly blinded by a huge bright object as they were driving on the autoroute. They stopped their car, but were so frightened they abandoned the vehicle and ran into the woods...The BAF is concerned to a point about the UFO issue and is taking action to investigate information they have...The USAF did confirm to the BAF and Belgian MOD that no USAF Stealth aircraft were operating in the Ardennes area during the periods in question."
Now, we get to the really important part of all this. Most people - ufologists and aviation experts - accept there are what we call secret "Flying Triangles" flying around. But, what's really intriguing is this: way back in the mid-1960s, Jeffery Brown described seeing a squadron of Flying Triangles - but they were not supposed to be around until the 1980s. The document - now in the U.K. National Archives - makes it very clear, however, that Flying Triangles (with the rounded corners, with the sickly humming noise, and with the three lights below the body of the craft) were around in the 1960s. It's hard to believe there were squadrons of Flying Triangles back in 1965. But, that's how it looks. Unless, the U.K. government had numerous Flying Triangles. It's hard to figure it all out. But, the Jeffery Brown testimony (and official document) suggests we're nowhere sure understanding the full story of the Flying Triangles. Of course, there's another angle: the Flying Triangles are piloted by extraterrestrials. And, have been for a long, long time...
Einstein’s Fascinating Letter on the UFO Phenomenon: A Closer Look
Einstein’s Fascinating Letter on the UFO Phenomenon: A Closer Look
In July 1952, reports of “flying saucers” over Washington D.C. sparked widespread panic and intrigue. Pilots, radar operators, and citizens alike reported sightings of the mysterious objects, and President Harry Truman even called for an investigation. However, before any serious probe could take place, the Air Force swiftly held a press conference to quell the panic and blame the sightings on weather conditions.
One individual who was not content to accept this explanation was Reverend Louis A. Gardner, an evangelical minister who decided to reach out to none other than Albert Einstein to see if the renowned physicist had any insight into the strange occurrences. In response, Einstein sent a letter stating, “Those people have seen something. What it is I do not know and am not curious to know.”
In response, Einstein sent a letter stating:
“Those people have seen something. What it is I do not know and am not curious to know.”
This response may seem surprising coming from a man who once said, “The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing” and who had also told his biographer just months prior that he was “passionately curious.” However, it is important to remember that Einstein was a scientist, and as such, he likely would have required concrete evidence and scientific explanation before becoming curious about a phenomenon. The lack of concrete information and the Air Force’s hasty attempts to explain the sightings away may have been enough for Einstein to remain skeptical and uninvested in the situation.

The government's UFO office has been ordered to re-investigate an alleged 1945 crash of a strange object in New Mexico – dubbed the 'Roswell before Roswell'.
A new military spending bill signed into law by President Biden last week was specifically amended to incorporate the intriguing case into a historic review of UFO incidents to be conducted by the Department of Defense.
Jaques Vallée, a former contractor for the government's UFO office and the co-author of a book on the 1945 case, gave an exclusive interview to DailyMail.com about it.
Vallée, a renowned scientist and UFO investigator, was the inspiration for the French scientist character in Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind, played by François Truffaut.
In his interview, he described the alleged August 1945 crash of an avocado-shaped 'craft' on the edge of the atomic bomb testing site near San Antonio, New Mexico – about 100 miles from the infamous Roswell crash two years later.

The National Defense Authorization Act, which passed Congress this month, includes a section requiring the Department of Defense's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) to review and prepare a report on all previous government investigations of UFOs dating back to 1945.
The bill's text previously only went back to 1947, but a late amendment changed it to '45.
'I was not involved in the drafting of the legislation, but several of my DC friends were, and they got the date of the investigation pushed back to 1945,' Vallée told DailyMail.com.
'Several of the Congressmen involved have the book that Paola Harris and I wrote about our research at [the alleged crash site called] Trinity.'
Vallée and Italian UFO journalist Harris's 2021 book, Trinity: the Best-Kept Secret, was re-released this year with new information, and is mainly based around testimony of three witnesses: a B-52 bomber pilot, and two young sons of a rancher on whose land the UFO supposedly crashed.
An artist's impression of the crash site and UFO is pictured. 'There was a gouge in the earth as long as a football field, and a circular object at the end of it… It was the color of the old pot my mother was always trying to shine up, a dull metallic color,' one witness said

The two researchers interviewed the family of Lt. Col William Brothy, who said he revealed in the years after the incident that he was sent out to survey the crash site on August 16, 1945.

'The first witness was a bomber pilot who was coming in for landing at Alamogordo [the neighboring airbase],' Vallée told DailyMail.com. 'He was asked by the controllers to look at a communication tower that had lost signal.
'He told the story to his family. His son gave us the recollection of what his father had described.
'Flying over, he saw the tower was bent, as if it had been hit by something very hard. And then he saw in the vegetation some distance away a large egg-shaped object. And there were two little kids that he called little Indians, on their horses next to the object.'
Vallée says those two kids were Jose Padilla, 9, and Reme Baca, 7.
Padilla, now 86, became a Highway Patrol officer for 32 years, and Baca, who died in 2013, became a US Marine and later a senior staffer for Washington Governor Dixy Lee Ray.
They kept their story secret for more than 50 years, at last deciding to come forward in 2003 in an interview with a journalist from their hometown.

Interviews with Vallée and Harris decades after the crash saw them describe stumbling across the wreckage of a craft while looking for a lost cow on Padilla's father's ranch by the Rio Grande on August 16, 1945.
'We heard this sound and the ground shook,' Baca said in one interview. 'We saw smoke coming from maybe a couple of canyons down... We worked our way down the ridge.
'There was a gouge in the earth as long as a football field, and a circular object at the end of it… It was the color of the old pot my mother was always trying to shine up, a dull metallic color.'
He said he could feel the heat from the crash 'through the soles of your shoes'. Baca said he picked up a piece of foil-like metal that sprung back to its original shape when folded.
Reme Baca was seven at the time. He died in 2013. He was a Marine and later a senior staffer for Washington Governor Dixy Lee Ray
'Strange-looking creatures were moving around inside,' he added. 'They looked under stress. They moved fast, as if they were able to will themselves from one position to another in an instant. They were shadowy and expressionless, but definitely living beings.
'They had big bulgy eyes. Four foot tall, and they were real thin, needle-thin arms… Their heads looked like a campamocha [praying mantis].
'They seemed like us – children, not dangerous. But we were scared and exhausted.
The boys fled home on their horses and told Padilla's father what they had seen. Faustino Padillo told them it probably belonged to the Army and to ignore it. But they persuaded him to check out the site two days later with state policeman Eddie Apodaca.
Baca and Padillo said the 'craft' was still there, but the debris was gone, the object covered with dirt, and the ground appeared to have been raked.
The next day an Army sergeant named Avila, showed up at the ranch, asking Faustino if they could cut out his fence, put in a gate and grade a road to the crash site for a tractor-trailer, Baca said.
'We have one of our experimental weather balloons that inadvertently fell on your property,' Baca remembered the sergeant saying.

Over the following week, the two boys snuck out to the site and used binoculars to spy on a unit of Army officers who stood guard, loaded the 25 by 14 foot, roughly five ton 'avocado-shaped' object onto a flatbed truck, and covered it with blue tarpaulins, they told Harris.
Vallée was the inspiration for the scientist character in Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind
There was no sign of the creatures they claimed they saw earlier.
On the last day, the boys plucked up the courage to sneak up and peek under the tarp while the young, bored soldiers were at lunch.
'Jose said, "I think they're going to take it tonight." I said, "Yeah, how about a souvenir?"' Baca told Harris.
'Jose pulls part of the tarp off, exposing the gash on the side of the craft, while I hold the tarp open. Jose climbs into the gash.'
They described 'ridges' inside every few feet, 'silvery colored strands' like angel hair decorations, and a 2.5ft metal panel attached to the rear wall with pins.
'No seats or anything,' Baca said. 'It must have been cleaned out, or maybe there weren't any. Couldn't see any instruments, like gauges, clocks, steering wheel, brake pedals, nothing like that.'
The plucky kids grabbed a crowbar from the tractor, used it to rip the large panel off the wall, and scurried off.
They said they hid the metal under the floorboards of a nearby building, and kept quiet about the case, fearing retribution by the Army against their families – especially after officers came to search Faustino's house.

Baca and Padilla eventually moved away and lost contact until 2002, when Baca reconnected with his old friend via a genealogy search. It was then they decided to tell their story.
In 2015, Vallée had a spectroscopy analysis performed on the metal panel they said they recovered from the wreckage. It points to a mundane, man-made origin.
The metal is 'aluminum primarily alloyed to copper and silicon' the report by Frontier Analysis said, a mix often used for 'engine crankcases, gas and oil tanks, engine oil pans, typewriter frames, and engine parts.' The isotopic ratios for the metals in the panel are within the range found on Earth.
The foil-like metal that Baca claimed he picked up has been lost – after he allegedly used it to fix a leaking pipe on the ranch as a boy.
While other researchers have abandoned the case due to the lack of results and paper trail, Vallée says it did not diminish the mystery for him.
'We have yet to ask what an ordinary, human fragment of some low-tech aluminum gadget was doing aboard a fantastic craft dropping from the sky in the middle of a storm, shattering the Marconi Tower of the White Sands Missile Range as its crew of diminutive insectoids skidded weirdly through the cabin,' he wrote in his book.
'You can't nail an aluminum bracket to the interior wall of a weather balloon, no matter how sophisticated. Every nine-year-old kid in New Mexico knows that.'
Vallée, who worked as a contractor for a previous reincarnation of the government's UFO office, the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program, told DailyMail.com he is hopeful that a review of the Trinity alleged crash by the new UFO office will turn up further evidence.
'It will re-open the research on a more historically accurate and significant time scale,' he said.
And the data scientist believes he knows where AARO investigators should go looking: the Department of Energy.
'Reme Baca assisted Dixy Lee Ray in winning the election as governor of Washington in 1976. She had been chair of the Atomic Energy Commission [1973 to 1975],' he said.
'She showed Reme when he was helping her in the campaign, a record of the recovery of the craft. It was secret, she did not leave it with him. But she indicated that there was a record in the files of the Atomic Energy Commission.'
Intriguingly, the new defense budget legislation signed into law last week also includes a whistleblower program for reporting 'deep black' UFO programs to Congress.
In May, the House Intelligence Committee held its first public hearing on UFOs in 54 years where panel members grilled Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence Scott Bray (left) and Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security Ronald Moultrie (right)

An amendment to the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) gives protections to any whistleblowers coming forward to congress in classified briefings to disclose any previously hidden programs on 'unidentified anomalous phenomena' involving 'material retrieval, material analysis' and even 'reverse engineering' and 'developmental or operational testing'.
Former UFO office director Lue Elizondo told DailyMail.com: 'This language is truly revolutionary in terms of ensuring the American people can finally get to the bottom of a decades-old mystery.'
Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Christopher Mellon, added that the new laws mean AARO is no longer a 'toothless organization, and now has 'personnel, authority, resources and strong support from Congress.'
Another NDAA amendment requires the UFO office to compile 'a written report detailing the historical record of the United States Government relating to unidentified anomalous phenomena' going back to January 1 1945.
The review will include 'successful or unsuccessful efforts to identify and track unidentified anomalous phenomena', and 'any efforts to obfuscate, manipulate public opinion, hide, or otherwise provide incorrect unclassified or classified information.'

Yet another Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.

In a video captured by the US Navy, an unidentified flying object is seen dancing across the screen before crashing into the ocean, capturing the imagination of UFO hunters everywhere. There is currently little information about the object except that the Pentagon has confirmed the footage is authentic, and the video has now been made available online by a UFO documentarian.
“The US Navy photographed and filmed 'spherical' shaped UFOs and advanced transmedium vehicles; here is some of that footage,” states filmmaker Jeremy Corbell on his website, where he has shared the clip and details of the object.

According to Corbell, the video was captured three years ago, in 2019, but has since been made available to the public. It is thought to have originated from within the USS Omaha's Combat Information Center while sailing off the coast of San Diego, although this is unconfirmed.
Although the video is short, it appears the object is capable of traveling through both air and water, making it more advanced in transmedium travel than any known vehicles, military or otherwise. The object itself is incredibly small, radar imaging shows a solid ball measuring just 2 meters (6 feet) in diameter. However, it appears fast, reaching speeds of up to 254 kilometers per hour (158 miles per hour) during its air flight.
A search was performed using a submarine shortly after it was spotted, but the object was long gone.
Currently, there is no known vehicle that can fly through the air for an extended period of time and then transition into water and continue traveling. Throughout the 1900s, the concept of a flying submarine was explored, but significant challenges in air supply and fuel made the idea never quite take off. In 2008, the US prepared to issue contracts for a flying submersible vehicle, but after Lockheed Martin canceled their plans for a submersible drone, it appears the contracts never materialized.
According to Bob Lazar, “Element 115 Is The Fuel Of Advanced Alien UFOs.”
According to Bob Lazar, “Element 115 Is The Fuel Of Advanced Alien UFOs.”
Those who are aware with the wacko edge of UFO believing won’t be surprised by the appearance of element 115. (and yes, even within the fringe believe in UFOs, there is a faction so far out there that it is referred to as the wacko fringe of the fringe),
The name Bob Lazar is well-known to many people.
Lazar claimed to have been a physicist at S4 between 1988 and 1989. S4 was allegedly near Groom Dry Lake, Nevada, southwest of top-secret Area 51.
Reverse engineering is used to study and learn more about extraterrestrial spacecraft or flying saucers at S4, claims Lazar. Lazar, who has a wealth of knowledge on the propulsion system and other technical details of a disc-shaped spaceship he refers to as the sport model, claims to have observed nine different extraterrestrial ships there.
Lazar’s credibility was called into question when it was discovered that “schools he was said to have attended had no record of him, while others in the scientific community had no remembrance of ever meeting him.” Lazar’s supporters contend that his credentials and history were compromised in order to bring up the specific credibility difficulties that his opponents have brought up.
What about element 15, also known as ununpentium?
According to Bob Lazar, the under investigation automobiles used nuclear fuel made from atomic element 115. It was claimed that element 115, also known as “ununpentium” (symbol Uup), provided both an anti-gravity energy source and antimatter for the creation of energy during proton bombardment.
The resultant large-scale gravitational impact would be a distortion or warp of space-time, decreasing the distance and travel time to a destination since the nucleus of Element 115 has an extremely powerful nuclear force field.
The existence of this synthetic element was confirmed by experts during a recent accelerator experiment. Will it be sufficient to officially recognize ununpentium and give it a new name?
Now, a fresh set of tests supports the discovery of one of those elements. An multinational team of scientists produced an element using 115 protons in Germany’s GSI accelerator. The element, known as ununpentium (Latin for one-one-five plus “-ium”), has been produced by research teams before.
Initially developed in the early 2000s by a group of Russian and American scientists, ununpentium was the subject of a research on it in 2006. Ununpentium was not at the time formally recognized or given a name by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), who did not consider that data satisfactory. The most recent GSI investigations represent yet another positive development.
Why don’t we state that somebody “found” ununpentium instead of “synthesized” or “made” it? Like other super-heavy elements, ununpentium can only be created through human research. It is entirely synthetic (ununpentium: elements; polyester; fabrics?).
No laboratory can produce it either. Uranium is the heaviest element that occurs naturally on Earth and contains 92 protons. Atoms heavier than uranium can only be produced by fusion processes, nuclear reactions, or other highly specialized chemistry. In the past, the GSI accelerator has created six artificial elements with more protons than uranium.
Americium, a synthetic element with 95 protons, was attacked with calcium ions, each of which has 20 protons, by a team of researchers at GSI to produce ununpentium. The americium and calcium atom nuclei are joined by the bombardment to produce a new 115-proton nucleus. (For an instructive GIF, visit the “new components” webpage at GSI.) Like other artificial super-heavy elements, ununpentium decays quickly. For the 2006 announcement, scientists created ununpentium atoms that barely lasted 30 to 80 milliseconds.
According to Lund University in Sweden, IUPAC members will now evaluate the recent confirmation of the 2006 work to determine whether it is adequate to justify formal recognition for ununpentium. Researchers from Lund were in charge of the most recent ununpentium testing at GSI. In the meanwhile, Physical Review Letters has published the results of the Lund team.
The United States’ Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory claims that research on synthetic elements not only supports interesting chemical theories, but also advances knowledge of the fission process in general. On the other hand, ununpentium is unlikely to be found in even the most cutting-edge future technology. Up until now, scientists have only found practical uses for artificial atoms with 100 or fewer protons.
Although it has always been theoretically possible to create several of these elements that do not occur in nature, doing so in the lab only tells us anything about fusion at this time. Of course, nothing about this discovery confirms Bob Lazar’s outlandish dreams. UFOs are not mentioned.
Pentagon’s UFO office inundated with unexplained sightings
Pentagon’s UFO office inundated with unexplained sightings
By: Liam McAneny
Ever wondered whether humans were alone in the universe? A new office at the US Pentagon has received hundreds of reports of unidentified flying objects since it was set up in July.
The new All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) was created back in July this year and was tasked with the job of tracking and investigating reports of “unidentified anomalous phenomena”.
The phrase unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) was chosen several years ago as a replacement for the moniker of UFO, to reduce stigma and to widen the net of unidentified objects that would be investigated.
As defined by the US Department of Defense, a UAP is any object in space, air, or land or in or under the sea that cannot be identified. The second prong of the definition for the purpose of the AARO office is that the object may pose a threat to US military operations or installations.
The AARO began their investigations starting with the historical reports of UAP encounters reported between 2004 and 2021, which encompassed 144 events. Of these 144 encounters, the AARO said that 80 of them were captured on “multiple sensors”.
These statistics were announced publicly by the director of national intelligence in June last year. This announcement, in addition to the establishment of the AARO office for the express purpose of investigating these phenomena and a rare Congressional hearing in May into UAPs has led to significant increases in reports of UAPS.
The director of the AARO, Sean Kirkpatrick, said that the office has “had lots more reporting” since it was set up, before going on to clarify the number was in the “several hundreds”.
Some of the AARO’s findings and investigations will be revealed in an updated report due to be produced by the director of national intelligence before the end of the year.
Kirkpatrick provided more comments on his agency’s mission, as well as emphasising their commitment to producing accurate and scientific findings.
“We have an important and yet challenging mission to lead an interagency effort to document, collect, analyse and when possible, resolve reports of any unidentified anomalous phenomena.
"We apply the highest analytic and scientific standards,” he said.
"We execute our mission objectively and without sensationalism and we do not rush to conclusions.”
One of the difficulties of past “UFO” investigations was that often, the US government’s own activities were to blame, but due to high-level classification, those reporting or investigating the incidents could not be informed of the true nature of the object they had witnessed.
Kirkpatrick said that this time, the AARO has made sure to work closely with various military and intelligence services within the government to avoid the same situation happening again.
“We are setting up very clear mechanisms with our ‘blue’ programs, both our DOD and IC programs, to deconflict any observations that come in with ‘blue’ activity to ensure that we weed those out and we can identify those fairly early on.”
There’s absolutely no doubt that had pilot Kenneth Arnold not encountered a veritable squadron of strange-looking aircraft near Mt. Rainier, Washington State on the afternoon of June 24, 1947, there would never have been an opportunity for the Russians – and for the United States, too, as we’ll soon see – to exploit a very real phenomenon of mystifying origins and nature for psychological and military gain. But, as history has shown, Arnold most assuredly did have that now-legendary encounter. Whether Arnold encountered a number of extraterrestrial craft, advanced creations of the Soviet Union, or the then-latest developments of the U.S. military, remains unknown.
The theories are many. The hard answers are scant. Let’s take a look at what happened to Arnold on that particular day which changed the world. Arnold said: "The following story of what I observed over the Cascade Mountains, as impossible as it may seem, is positively true. I never asked nor wanted any notoriety for just accidentally being in the right spot at the right time to observe what I did. I reported something that I know any pilot would have reported. I don't think that in any way my observation was due to any sensitivity of eye sight or judgment than what is considered normal for any pilot.
On June 24th, Tuesday, 1947, I had finished my work for the Central Air Service at Chehalis, Washington, and at about two o'clock I took off from Chehalis, Washington, airport with the intention of going to Yakima, Wash. My trip was delayed for an hour to search for a large marine transport that supposedly went down near or around the southwest side of Mt. Rainier in the state of Washington and to date has never been found." Arnold had more to say. For a short period, Arnold pondered on the possibility that the craft were created by the Russians. He soon dropped the idea, though.
In fact, things had only just begun: "I flew directly toward Mt. Rainier after reaching an altitude of about 9,500 feet, which is the approximate elevation of the high plateau from which Mt. Rainier rises. I had made one sweep of this high plateau to the westward, searching all of the various ridges for this marine ship and flew to the west down and near the ridge side of the canyon where Ashford, Washington, is located. Unable to see anything that looked like the lost ship, I made a 360 degree turn to the right and above the little city of Mineral, starting again toward Mt. Rainier. I climbed back up to an altitude of approximately 9,200 feet. The air was so smooth that day that it was a real pleasure flying and, as most pilots do when the air is smooth and they are flying at a higher altitude, I trimmed out my airplane in the direction of Yakima, Washington, which was almost directly east of my position and simply sat in my plane observing the sky and the terrain. There was a DC-4 to the left and to the rear of me approximately fifteen miles distance, and I should judge, at 14,000 foot elevation. The sky and air was clear as crystal. I hadn't flown more than two or three minutes on my course when a bright flash reflected on my airplane. It startled me as I thought I was too close to some other aircraft. I looked every place in the sky and couldn't find where the reflection had come from until I looked to the left and the north of Mt. Rainier where I observed a chain of nine peculiar looking aircraft flying from north to south at approximately 9,500 foot elevation and going, seemingly, in a definite direction of about 170 degrees."
There was more to come, in Arnold's own words: "They were approaching Mt. Rainier very rapidly, and I merely assumed they were jet planes. Anyhow, I discovered that this was where the reflection had come from, as two or three of them every few seconds would dip or change their course slightly, just enough for the sun to strike them at an angle that reflected brightly on my plane. These objects being quite far away, I was unable for a few seconds to make out their shape or their formation. Very shortly they approached Mt. Rainier, and I observed their outline against the snow quite plainly. I thought it was very peculiar that I couldn't find their tails but assumed they were some type of jet plane. I was determined to clock their speed, as I had two definite points I could clock them by; the air was so clear that it was very easy to see objects and determine their approximate shape and size at almost fifty miles that day. I remember distinctly that my sweep second hand on my eight day clock, which is located on my instrument panel, read one minute to 3 P.M. as the first object of this formation passed the southern edge of Mt. Rainier. I watched these objects with great interest as I had never before observed airplanes flying so close to the mountain tops, flying directly south to southeast down the hog's back of a mountain range. I would estimate their elevation could have varied a thousand feet one way or another up or down, but they were pretty much on the horizon to me which would indicate they were near the same elevation as I was."
(Nick Redfern) The Roswell affair, also of 1947, was right behind.
The sighting grew for Arnold: "They flew like many times I have observed geese to fly in a rather diagonal chain-like line as if they were linked together. They seemed to hold a definite direction but rather swerved in and out of the high mountain peaks. Their speed at the time did not impress me particularly, because I knew that our army and air forces had planes that went very fast. What kept bothering me as I watched them flip and flash in the sun right along their path was the fact that I couldn't make out any tail on them, and I am sure that any pilot would justify more than a second look at such a plane. I observed them quite plainly, and I estimate my distance from them, which was almost at right angles, to be between twenty to twenty-five miles. I knew they must be very large to observe their shape at that distance, even on as clear a day as it was that Tuesday, In fact I compared a zeus [sic: it should be “Dzus”] fastener or cowling tool I had in my pocket with them - holding it up on them and holding it up on the DC-4 - that I could observe at quite a distance to my left, and they seemed smaller than the DC-4; but, I should judge their span would have been as wide as the furtherest [sic] engines on each side of the fuselage of the DC-4.
"The more I observed these objects the more upset I became, as I am accustomed and familiar with most all objects flying whether I am close to the ground or at higher altitudes. I observed the chain of these objects passing another high snow-covered ridge in between Mt. Rainier and Mt. Adams and as, the first one was passing the south crest of this ridge the last object was entering the northern crest of the ridge. As I was flying in the direction of this particular ridge, I measured it and found it to be approximately five miles so I could safely assume that the chain of these saucer like objects were at least five miles long. I could quite accurately determine their pathway due to the fact that there were several high peaks that were a little this side of them as well as higher peaks on the other side of their pathway."
Arnold wasn't going to stop telling all the people who were fascinated by his amazing sighting: "As the last unit of this formation passed the southern-most high snow-covered crest of Mt. Adams, I looked at my sweep second hand and it showed that they had travelled the distance in one minute and forty-two seconds. Even at the time this timing did not upset me as I felt confident after I would land there would be some explanation of what I saw. A number of news men and experts suggested that I might have been seeing reflections or even a mirage. This I know to be absolutely false, as I observed these objects not only through the glass of my airplane but turned my airplane sideways where I could open my window and observe them with a completely unobstructed view. (Without sun glasses.) Even though two minutes seems like a very short time to one on the ground, in the air in two minutes time a pilot can observe a great many things and anything within his sight of vision probably as many as fifty or sixty times."
Things were not done yet: "I continued my search for the marine plane for another fifteen or twenty minutes and while searching for this marine plane, what I had just observed kept going through my mind. I became more disturbed, so after taking a last look at Tieton Reservoir I headed for Yakima. I might add that my complete observation of these objects, which I could even follow by their flashes as they passed Mt. Adams, was around two and one-half or three minutes -- although, by the time they reached Mt. Adams they were out of my range of vision as far as determining shape or form. Of course, when the sun reflected from one or two or three of these units, they appeared to be completely round; but, I am making a drawing to the best of my ability, which I am including, as to the shape I observed these objects to be as they passed the snow covered ridges as well as Mt. Rainier. When these objects were flying approximately straight and level, they were just a black thin line and when they flipped was the only time I could get a judgment as to their size. These objects were holding an almost constant elevation; they did not seem to be going up or coming down, such as would be the case of rockets or artillery shells. I am convinced in my own mind that they were some type of airplane, even though they didn't conform with the many aspects of the conventional type of planes that I know."
Arnold quickly realized that something amazing was going on: "Although these objects have been reported by many other observers throughout the United States, there have been six or seven other accounts written by some of these observers that I can truthfully say must have observed the same thing that I did; particularly, the descriptions of the three Western [Cedar City, Utah] Air Lines employees, the gentleman [pilot] from Oklahoma City and the locomotive engineer from Illinois, plus Capt. Smith and Co-Pilot Stevens of United Air Lines. Some descriptions could not be very accurate taken from the ground unless these saucer-like disks were at a great height and there is a possibility that all of the people who observed peculiar objects could have seen the same thing I did, but, it would have been very difficult from the ground to observe these for more than four or five seconds, and there is always the possibility of atmospheric moisture and dust near the ground which could distort one's vision.
"I have in my possession letters from all over the Unites States and people who profess that these objects have been observed over other portions of the world, principally Sweden, Bermuda, and California. I would have given almost anything that day to have had a movie camera with a telephoto lens and from now on I will never be without one - - but, to continue further with my story. When I landed at Yakima, Wash., airport I described what I had seen to my very good friend, Al Baxter, who listened patiently and was very courteous but in a joking way didn't believe me. I did not accurately measure the distance between these two mountains until I landed at Pendleton, Oregon, that same day where I told a number of pilot friends of mine what I had observed and they did not scoff or laugh but suggested they might be guided missiles or something new. In fact several former Army pilots informed me that they had been briefed before going into combat overseas that they might see objects of similar shape and design as I described and assured me that I wasn't dreaming or going crazy.
And, finally, for Arnold: "I quote Sonny Robinson, a former Army Air Forces pilot who is now operating dusting operations at Pendleton, Oregon, “that what you observed, I am convinced, is some type of jet or rocket propelled ship that is in the process of being tested by our government or even it could possibly be by some foreign government.” Anyhow, the news that I had observed these spread very rapidly and before the night was over I was receiving telephone calls from all parts of the world; and, to date, I have not received one telephone call or one letter of scoffing or disbelief. The only disbelief that I know of was what was printed in the papers. I look at this whole ordeal as not something funny as some people have made it out to be. To me it is mighty serious and since I evidently did observe something that at least Mr. John Doe on the street corner or Pete Andrews on the ranch has never heard about, is no reason that it does not exist.
"Even though I openly invited an investigation by the Army and the FBI as to the authenticity of my story or a mental or a physical examination as to my capabilities, I have received no interest from these two important protective forces of our country; I will go so far as to assume that any report I gave to the United and Associated Press and over the radio on two different occasions which apparently set the nation buzzing, if our Military intelligence was not aware of what I observed, they would be the very first people that I could expect as visitors. I have received lots of requests from people who told me to make a lot of wild guesses. I have based what I have written here in this article on positive facts and as far as guessing what it was I observed, it is just as much a mystery to me as it is to the rest of the world." In essence, that is the story of Kenneth Arnold and Flying Saucers. But, a lot of people don't know there were far more better Saucer cases in that exciting period of the summer of 1947. In other words, Arnold was the most famous one in 1947. But, there were greater incidents. So, let's have a look at some of those other summer 1947 events.
(Nick Redfern) The FBI took a significant role in the early 1947 Saucer cases.
The U.S. military noted the following in its “Analysis of Flying Objects in the US” document: “During April 1947, two employees of the Weather Bureau Station at Richmond, Virginia, reported seeing a strange metallic disk on three occasions…One observation was at 15,000 feet when a disk was followed for 15 seconds. The disk appeared metallic, shaped like an ellipse with a flat bottom and a round top…The disk appeared to be moving rather rapidly, although it was impossible to estimate its speed.” Then, there is the following from the USAF, which describes a notable encounter on June 28, 1947, just four days after Kenneth Arnold’s historic encounter. According to the Air Force, “While flying at 10,000 feet on a course of 300 degrees, 30 miles northwest of Lake Mead, Nevada, an Air Force lieutenant reported seeing five or six while circular objects in close formation and traveling at an estimated speed of 285 miles per hour.” Less than twenty-four hours later, the Air Force documentation shows, “…a party of three, two of them scientists, were motoring along Highway 17 toward the White Sands, New Mexico, V-2 firing grounds and reported seeing a large disk or sphere moving horizontally at a high speed and an estimated altitude of 10,000 feet. It was of uniform shape and had no protruding surfaces such as wings. The object was in sight for about 60 seconds before it disappeared to the northeast. The three observers agreed on the details of the sighting except that one thought he had seen vapor trails.
(Nick Redfern) Encounters at White Sands, 1947.
Then there are the events which occurred on July 7, also referenced in the Air Force documentation: “On 7 July 1947, five Portland, Oregon police officers reported varying numbers of disks flying over different parts of the city. All observations were made within a minute or two of 1305 hours. On the same day, William Rhodes of Phoenix, Arizona allegedly saw a disk circling his locality during sunset and took two photographs. The resulting pictures…show a disk-like object with a round front and a square tail in plan form. These photographs have been examined by experts who state they are true photographic images and do not appear to be imperfection in the emulsion or imperfections in the lens.” And the reports just kept coming and coming: “On 10 July 1947, Mr. Woodruff, a Pan-American Airways mechanic reported a circular object flying at high velocity, paralleling the earth's surface and leaving a trail which appeared as a ‘burning up’ of the cloud formation. The sighting occurred near Harmon Field, Newfoundland. Two other persons also saw the trail which remained in the sky for about an hour and was photographed by another PAA employee. The resulting photographs support Mr. Woodruff'’s observation as far as the sky cleavage is concerned.” There's no doubt that Kenneth Arnold started the era of the Flying Saucer; but, as the data above shows, there were certainly far greater cases.
As a whistle-blower, Bob Lazarwas able to expose the alleged activities of the government and extraterrestrials at Area 51. He is widely known for revealing that the US and other countries were working together on secret bases in the area. Lazar worked as an engineer in a hangar known as S-4 in Area 51 in the 1980s. He claimed that the facility’s antimatter generators were powered by Element 115, an element that is yet to be discovered.
Lazar’s element, known as Element 115, is not the same as the element known as Moscovium, which was first synthesized in 2003. It was created by a team of scientists from the US and Russia at a nuclear research facility in Dubna, near Moscow.
The atomic number of Moscovium is 115, which is the number of protons in an atom’s nucleus. This makes it a heavy element due to its large number. Among the elements in the universe, hydrogen has an atomic number of 1, making it the oldest element and the most abundant. On the other hand, Element 115 is both extremely rare and incredibly dense.
The strange nature of the story surrounding Element 115 became apparent when Lazar claimed that the FBI had raided his business. His followers believed that the agency was trying to recover the samples of Element 115 that he took from Area 51. According to a report by Motherboard, the FBI did indeed raid his business. It was known to sell various electrical equipment, radioactive materials, jet engines, and high-powered magnets.
In his documentary, Jeremy Corbell, which was released earlier this year, Lazar claimed that the raid was carried out by the FBI to seize the alien fuel that he stole from Area 51. However, the documents that were obtained by Motherboard did not contain Element 115.
According to Corbell, Lazar was able to obtain a stabilized version of Element 115, which he tested and recorded. Some of the witnesses who were able to observe his tests included George Knapp, an investigative journalist. In his documentary, Corbell also revealed that during one of his tests, Lazar was able to obin some of the element.
Jeremy Corbell
Despite the various claims that have been made against Lazar, there are still people who can vouch for his truthfulness. For instance, George Knapp claims that he had been able to speak with several former employees of Lazar. They confirmed that he was a physicist.
According to Knapp, the employees who confirmed Lazar’s truthfulness were close friends of the physicist. One of them was Joe Vaninetti, who was a scientist who was closely associated with Bob. Before and after Lazar claimed that he worked at S-4, Vaninetti was involved in research about extraterrestrials.
Is Element 115 the Alien Fuel of the Future?
A decade before the substance known as Element 115 was synthesized, Lazar was still talking about it. According to some, his claims about Element 115 were credible, as it was a theoretical element that could prove useful in an alleged alien coverup. Another possibility is that element 119 could also exist. However, it has not yet been discovered.
During his first interview with George Knapp in 1989, Bob first talked about the substance and how it was utilized in the propulsion system of an alien craft that was found at the facility’s S-4. He would not confirm or deny if extraterrestrials sent the aliens with Element 115, but he claimed that they had 500 pounds of it.
Lazar referred to Element 115 as a superheavy element, and he claimed that it produced its own gravitational field after being exposed to radiation. He also stated that the fuel used by the alleged alien craft was stable. Lazar noted that the substance could create gravity waves and lift the UFO.
In his documentary, Corbell focused on Lazar’s work at Los Alamos, he talked about the various aspects of his invention, which he referred to as a “craft.” According to Lazar, the vehicle was designed to move with the belly and the bottom, and it would shoot off when it needed to. He noted that it was the same design as the propulsion system that he had worked on.
Lazar claims that this element, which is highly radioactive, allows alien spacecraft to go through the cosmos without getting affected by gravity. For years now, he has been talking about the material he worked on at Area 51, which he claims can be used to power extraterrestrial spacecraft. He also claims that the materials used to make these spacecraft were metamaterials, which are materials that are not made on Earth. In 2019, a report by the New York Times claimed that the Pentagon was investigating these materials.
Bob Lazar Interview, 1989
According to Lazar, the bombarding of Element 115 with protons led to the creation of Element 116, which is a livermorium. This substance then decays and produces antimatter, which can be used for propulsion. It is also believed that Element 115 could be the exotic matter that could be used to create traversable portals through the cosmos.
Carl Sagan and Kip Thorne have also speculated about the possibility of extraterrestrials. They were the subjects of a leaked Defense Intelligence Research document entitled “Traversable Wormholes, Negative Energy, and Stargates.”
In 2020, Corbell shared a picture of Lazar holding Aerogel, which was used to package Element 115. He said that he would not be including this component in his Netflix documentary, but he promised to release a video explaining how Element 115 worked. I had searched his YouTube channel, but I could not find a clip explaining how Element 115 worked.

Lazar’s Aerogel was used to package the element for transportation. There have been various speculations about its function in extraterrestrial spacecraft. However, this is a core component of what Lazar has been talking about.
It has been reported that TIC TAC UFOs appear to have a gravitational distortion, which helps explain how they can move at an incredibly fast speed. According to multiple credible witnesses, such as Commander Fravor and Cmdr. Select Underwood, these objects shot off at an incredible speed.
The objects moved at an incredible rate of speed. They were immediately gone from both radar and sight. Even the Princeton SPY-1 radar system was able to confirm this.
In his article, Corbell stated that the presence of TIC UFOs in our airspace is a mystery that needs to be solved. He also theorized that Element 115 could have revealed the presence of alien spacecraft on Earth.
Bob Lazar’s credibility
Lazar is regarded as the most important individual who uncovered the alleged activities of the government and extraterrestrials at Area 51. He was able to reveal in 1989 that the government and aliens were working together in secret bases. Thirty years ago, Lazar claimed that he was an engineer working at S-4, which was a hangar near Area 51. He said that the extraterrestrial seats found in the UFOs were made out of Element 115.
A Medium user known as SignalsIntelUFO was able to transcribe over 50 interviews with Lazar, which included details about his background and work. In 1982, Lazar claimed that he was hired by Los Alamos. He was working at the facility’s Meson Physics Facility. According to Terry England, in an article published on June 30, 1982, Lazar was working on developing jet engines.

During a podcast in 2020, Corbell revealed that during a conversation with England, he asked the scientist about Lazar’s work at Los Alamos.
During the conversation, Corbell asked England how he came up with the claims about Lazar’s work at Los Alamos. He noted that the scientist had to go through the process of writing a paper to prove that he was a physicist. England then said that if he had not provided the information to the media, he would have been blackballed by the facility. The Associated Press immediately picked up the story and repeated it.
Aside from England’s recollection, Lazar also gave an interview on December 20, 1989, where he provided more details about his work at Los Alamos. He talked about the nature of his role at the facility and the timeline of his work.
Lazar claimed that he had two masters degrees, one in physics and one in electronics. He worked at Los Alamos for a couple of years, before he was hired as a physicist. He was in the facility’s Polarized Proton Section, where he was involved in dealing with the accelerator.
Following Knapp’s initial report identifying Lazar, he claimed in an interview that he was hired as a technician. Lazar went on to say that he stayed in this role for a few years before he became a physicist.
According to the Los Alamos Monitor article, Bob stated that he moved to Los Alamos a month before starting work at the lab. On the contrary, Los Alamos confirmed that he started working there on May 18, 1982.
If Bob had only started working at the lab a month before the Monitor article was published, he would not have been a physicist by the time Terry England interviewed him. For several years, he was a technician at the lab.
According to George Knapp, he had been in contact with some of Bob’s former coworkers, who confirmed that he was a physicist. These claims were made informally, and one of them was Joe Vaninetti. According to Knapp, these individuals were friends of Lazar, and he only named Joe as the individual who confirmed Bob’s claim. Vaninetti also had a passion for UFOs, and he had been involved in research related to the phenomenon.
For over two decades, Jarmer worked in the lab’s Polarized Proton section. Also, Joe Vaninetti, who worked alongside Bob, was listed as an author on several of Jarmer’s research papers.

Earl Hoffman, a physicist at Los Alamos, stated that Lazar was a technician, which would not have qualified him as a physicist. He also claims that he only knew about Lazar when they worked together in the accelerator.
Lazar was off in an adjoining building, which was a little bit different from the others. I knew him because of his unusual name, and I could hear the car driving up and down the town as it was fired up. I don’t believe that I have ever met him, and I would wager that he wasn’t a physicist.
In 2019, Jeremy Corbell conducted an interview with Robert Krangle, a scientist who has been consulting for Los Alamos since 1980. In the interview, he talked about his first interaction with Lazar.
According to Krangle, there was not much interaction between them. During security meetings, one would usually be briefed on what was happening in the facility. They would also ask questions only to be kept to a minimum.
According to Jeremy Corbell, Lazar was very different from the other individuals he worked with. He said that he looked like Hawkins, and he had a British norman facial structure. He also noted that they never worked together, and he would often pass him in the cafeteria.
Joe Rogan, who was also interviewed by Jeremy Corbell, stated that the story that Bob told was the same as it had been for a long time. He claims that Bob might have changed his words, but the actual thing remained the same.
