Catherine
Austin Fitt’s Claims Extraterrestrials Exist, Moon
Base, Vatican Official Declares On National Television: Extraterrestrial Contact
Is Real, Scaler Technology Letter, First-Ever Carrier Landing with Unmanned

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, and Texas.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Canada, Egypt, Italy, Portugal, Tunisia, England and Scotland in the United Kingdom.
The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research.
I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
New Blue Planet

NASA‘s Hubble space telescope has identified the true color of a planet 63 light years away from Earth, a distant blue marble that, unlike our own planet, has torrential rainstorms of glass. HD 189733b, orbiting star HD 189733, would be seen by human eyes as a striking cobalt blue, the Hubble team says, ostensibly similar to Earth when viewed from space. However, in actual fact the exoplanet is one of a bizarre collection of “hot Jupiter’s” where temperatures can reach almost 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit (over 1,000 degrees Celsius).
It’s that extreme temperature – caused by the planet’s very close orbit to
the star – that gives HD 189733b what’s perhaps its most unusual feature: its
storms of glass. The atmosphere is filled with silicate particles, NASA
explains, and when they condense in the tremendously furious heat, they could
rain down as tiny droplets of glass. It’s the silicate that gives the planet its
distinctive color, with the droplets scattering more blue light than red in the
visible spectrum. http://www.slashgear.com
A New View of the Dumbbell Nebula
The one minute astronomer writes, “Here’s an astonishing new view of M27, the famous Dumbbell Nebula in the constellation Vulpecula. This image is the result of an international collaboration between Andre van der Hoeven, Fred Herrmann, and Terry Hancock who combined the light from three telescopes and three cameras into one image.”
A new image of the planetary nebula M27 which combines light from ionized hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. This image uses nearly 40 hours of data collected with three different telescopes and CCD cameras in Michigan, Alabama and Holland. The images were later combined into one final image. The outer hydrogen and oxygen shell of M27 are not normally visible in amateur images, along with emission from ionized sulfur. These elements are present in the outer layers of the central star of this nebula, a star which is blowing off its atmosphere and leaving the hot stellar core behind. - See more at http://www.oneminuteastronomer.com/8822/m27-image/
CIA Director UFOs Are Real
Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter, was the third Director of
Central Intelligence (DCI) from 1947 to 1950, and the first Director of the CIA,
which was established in September 1947.
Hillenkoetter was one of the first intelligence chiefs to make public his conviction that UFO's were real." On August 22, 1960, he stated,
"I am aware that hundreds of military and airline pilots, airport personnel, astronomers, missile trackers and other competent observers have reported sightings . . . These UFOs are interplanetary devices systematically observing the earth, either manned or under remote control, or both."
“It is time for the truth to be brought out... Behind the scenes high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about the UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense. I urge immediate Congressional action to reduce the dangers from secrecy about unidentified flying objects. Former CIA Director Vice Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter, in a signed statement to Congress, August 22, 1960.
Russian UFO Movie
Frank Chilli writes, “This is an excellent video with much info disclosed for the first time by the Russian Government, Military and Researches as well as some remarkable
UFO footage. You should view in full screen to best read the
English translation.”

The crashed UFO was a gift from advanced civilizations.
A Russian UFO movie makes some interesting comments from researchers.
Nikolai Antoshkin test pilot and Hero of the USSR, states,
“It appears a much more advanced civilization is controlling us. Apparently the aliens are controlling that we don’t do anything bad on Earth. We conclude this by their appearance on areas where our nuclear and chemical bases are located and large hydro technical facilities and regions where the situation is unstable.
What might have happened on other planets they want to prevent happening here.”
Note: Apparently, Earth is one of the finest planets in this part of the universe and the aliens are already here or plan on coming here, and wish to preserve the planet. They may also be from the future and desire to prevent us from destroying Earth.

Catherine Austin Fitt’s Claims Extraterrestrials Exist
Catherine Austin Fitts, a former Assistant Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), released a document supporting her claims that the US Navy initiated a plan in 1998 to adjust its operations for a future where extraterrestrials exist and live among us.
She claims the plan was commissioned by the Undersecretary of the US Navy and was undertaken by the Arlington Institute, an NGO located near the Pentagon with many military clients, where Fitts served on the Board of Directors. She was asked to assist with the plan and claims she was given an opportunity to meet a live alien, but declined. Two members of the Board of Directors have repudiated Fitt’s claims.
With the publication of Galactic Diplomacy, the contradiction of her version of events by other Arlington Institute Board members was now part of the public record. Consequently, Fitts felt free to release documentation supporting her version of events – Minutes of the March 26, 1999 Board of Directors meeting. The Minutes of the meeting below is the significant statement.

The document confirms key elements in her version of events, especially that
Arlington Institute was actively discussing Pickford and Lindeman’s study of
life outside earth and plans for how to best prepare the general public for
disclosing the existence of ET.
http://www.examiner.com/article/us-navy-plan-to-disclose-extraterrestrial-contact-secretly-developed-1998?CID=examiner_alerts_article
Joe Firmage who is a Board Member of the Arlington Institute is also Chairman of The International Space Sciences Organization (ISSO), an, advanced science research and education institute that was launched in July 1999, to provide a platform for research and education in view of breakthroughs likely in 21st Century physics. http://rense.com/politics4/isso.htm. So it is quite likely some type of discussion occurred has Catherine Fitt’s observed.
The Pickford and Lindemann study mentioned in the minutes involve eight alien contact scenarios they developed for a workshop on extraterrestrial contact as recalled by one of the participants: Called the second “Contact Planning” meeting and held in Denver, Colorado, this workshop was sponsored by Joe Firmage’s International Space Sciences Organization and organized by Kyle Pickford and Michael Lindemann. The meeting was divided into five groups: business, religion, science, government, and media/public. Each group role-played its behavior for each of eight scenarios. The meeting apparently showed contact behavior by each of the people in each of these categories. How can people prepare. A large number of these ideas clearly fit into two clusters that I find very encouraging: (a) tell the general public the truth right away and (b) prepare to communicate and negotiate with ET in a friendly and cooperative manner, even if its behavior seems unfriendly.
The minutes of the meeting confirm that the Arlington Institute was discussing the subject of life outside earth. According to Ms Fitt’s, one of these clients was the US Navy.
Editor’s Note: I have heard similar claims that the Navy wishes to release data on alien visitation. Lt. Col. Corso claimed he provided industry with advanced ET products that were distributed to industry. These products such as alien clothing, and advanced technology were rapidly copied and brought into production that may include UFOs themselves.
Three factors support the assumption that other civilizations in our galaxy are probably much older than our own human civilization. First, the vast majority of stars in our galaxy are much millions of years older than our Sun. It follows, then, that any civilizations on planets revolving around those stars likely arose much earlier than our own civilization did. Second, it seems quite possible that some civilizations survive for a million years or even longer. Our civilization is ten thousand years old, where others in our galaxy range in age from a few thousand years up to a million years old. We are one of the youngest. Third, we are observing alien craft that most likely come here from these other civilizations.
Moon Base

In 1994, the US Navy sent a satellite called Clementine to the moon to image it for two months. During that time, the satellite took 1.8 million images. Out of those images, 170,000 images were made available to the public. The rest were classified, Yes, classified moon craters and straight lines like this?
My friend the late Ingo Swann remote viewed key locations on the Moon and found about ten different locations that indicated an unearthly extraterrestrial presence. “Swann 'saw' with his mind's eye craters in darkness, and trails of tractor-tread marks. Confusion set in until Swann realized that he was 'seeing' intelligent activity and structures on the moon.
“In the depths of a crater he viewed a green, dusty haze lit by banks of artificial lights mounted on very large, tall towers. He was apparently observing extraterrestrials building a base on the moon. Ingo sensed that he had been psychically 'spotted' by two of the humanoid-looking inhabitants of the moon base. The aliens appeared to be conducting mining operations on the Moon.”
Vide Vatican Official Declares On National Television: Extraterrestrial Contact Is Real
John Jaeger, Director PUFOIN writes, “Videos on
April 29, 2013, show some things simply cannot be debunked as much as people
would like to do it, no matter how hard the debunkers try sometimes the truth
just keeps coming to the surface and this is one of those times. The late
Monsignor Corrado Balducci, a theologian member of the Vatican Curia, the
governing body, and highly placed Vatican official who is close to the Pope has
been on Italian Television, no less than five times stating that
extraterrestrial contact is a real phenomena. Balducci provided an analysis of
extraterrestrials that he feels is consistent with the Catholic Church‘s
understanding of theology.”
Monsignor Balducci emphasizes that extraterrestrial encounters “are not demonic, they are not due to psychological impairment, they are not a case of entity attachment, but these encounters deserve to be studied carefully.”
Since Monsignor Balducci is a demonology expert and consultant to the Vatican , and since the Catholic Church has historically demonized many new phenomena that were poorly understood, his stating that the Church does not censure these encounters is all the more remarkable. The bottom line is that the Vatican has moved quickly on the extremely difficult issue of extraterrestrials and religion. They allegedly attended secret meeting at the UN on this subject and obtain numerous reports from their clergy spread around the world.. The question becomes, are we paying attention or are we asleep at the switch! We are all in for a Galileo Moment and those only come along every 200-300 years. Are you ready?
Scaler Technology Letter
Todd writes, “ I wouldn't worry about a failed
anti-missile defense system. It's a joke actually. No nuke would be allowed to
go off in the first place and we have scaler technology now. Nukes are obsolete
and can 100% eliminated with the new technologies. The primitive devices are
just for show and for someone to make money developing that which is no longer
needed. This reminds me of the Mars mission. We've been there for many years now
and they pretend we are still working to achieve a Mars landing.”
LOL
The following seems like science fiction, but scalar beam weapons were invented in 1904 by a American immigrant genius called Nicola Tesla (1856 or 57 -1943) from Yugoslavia. Since he died in 1943, many nations have secretly developed his beam weapons which now further refined are so powerful that just by satellite one can: make a nuclear like destruction; earthquake; hurricane; tidal wave; cause instant freezing - killing every living thing instantly over many miles. It can cause intense heat like a burning fireball over a wide area; induce hypnotic mind control over a whole population; or even read anyone on the planet's mind by remote.
It can paralyze and or/kill everyone instantaneously in a 50 mile radius and lastly remove something right out of its place in time and space faster than the speed of light, without any detectable warning by crossing two or more beams with each other and any target can be aimed at even right through to the opposite side of the earth.
If either of the major scalar weapon armed countries e.g. U.S. or Russia were to fire a nuclear missile to attack each other this may possibly not even reach the target, because the missile could be destroyed with scalar technology. The knowledge via radio waves that it was about to be fired could be eavesdropped and the target could be destroyed in the bunker, fired at from space by satellite.
Very neat things can be done if one "nests" several Tesla
shields— say three or four—concentrically, one inside the other. In that case
even the nuclear radiation (such as gamma rays) from a defense-suppressive high
altitude nuclear burst can be handled.
For example, suppose three such
concentric shields are placed over a large vital area. Further, suppose a high
altitude nuclear burst is placed above the outer shield. Gamma radiation almost
instantly strikes the plasma in the outer shell, where it is absorbed,
scattered, and re-radiated at a lower temperature. (That after all is what
plasmas do.) Inside the first shell, the scattered radiation is now in the x-ray
and ultra violet region. Let us track the most lethal component, the
x-rays.
The scattered x-rays then strike the second plasma shell, and are absorbed
scattered and re-radiated at a lower temperature. Inside the second shell the
scattered radiation is now in the visible and infrared region, with a little
ultraviolet.
This optical radiation in turn strikes the third plasma shell, and is
absorbed scattered and re-radiated at still lower temperature. Inside the third
shell, most of the energy is now in the form of radio frequency (RF) energy,
with a little IR and visible band spectral energy content.
At this point, ordinary electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding of electronic equipment on the ground inside the third shield can take care of any RF interference resulting from the emergent RF noise protecting the city. Thanks to Todd.
First-Ever Carrier Landing with Unmanned Autonomous Aircraft
The Northrop Grumman-built X-47B Unmanned Combat Air
System demonstrator aircraft on Wednesday completed its first carrier-based
arrested landing on the USS George H.W. Bush (CVN 77) off the coast of
Virginia, announced
the Navy. This marked "the first time a tailless, unmanned autonomous aircraft
landed on a modern aircraft carrier," states the sea service's July 10 release.
"Naval aviators have always been at the forefront of operational and tactical innovation, and today was no exception," said Navy Secretary Ray Mabus. The X-47B completed a 35-minute transit from NAS Patuxent River, Md., to the carrier that was under way and then executed the landing, states the release. Sailors then launched the X-47B using the carrier's catapult. "Today's historic carrier landing and our operations aboard USS George H.W. Bush show, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that tailless unmanned aircraft can integrate seamlessly and operate safely from an aircraft carrier at sea," said Capt. Jaime Engdahl, the Navy's UCAS program manager. (See also Northrop Grumman release.)
The Trickster

George P. Hansen, author of The Trickster and the Paranormal, was employed in parapsychology laboratories for eight years-three at the Rhine Research Center in Durham, North Carolina, and five at Psychophysical Research Laboratories in Princeton, New Jersey. His research included remote viewing, ESP, psychokinesis on electronic random number generators, séance phenomena, and ghosts. His papers in professional journals also cover mathematical statistics, deception, skepticism, conjurors in parapsychology, and methodological criticisms. presented two lectures that are now on YouTube.
The first lecture, "History of Parapsychology," discusses the rise of psychical research from 1882 to the laboratory research of the 1980s. Some ganzfeld telepathy experiments are presented.

The second lecture, "The Decline of Parapsychology," focuses on 1989 to the present day. The decline is discussed in the context of history, sociology of religion, and secularization theory. Briefly, two thousand years ago cultural elites displayed strong antagonism to the paranormal, and they continue to do so today. The implications for the scientific acceptance of the field are considered. Although parapsychology is doing poorly, Hansen indicates promising areas for growth.

Hansen's The Trickster and the Paranormal includes considerable discussion of UFOs, with particular attention to government disinformation. Ben Rich stated the aliens us ESP to operate
FIREBALL” PHENOMENON
NUFORC has posted approximately 780 new, and amended, reports, as of Friday, July 5th. Peter Davenport has received a large number of reports of red and orange “orbs” or “fireballs” in his reports. Peter states, “Our strong impression is that most of the reports submitted for that date this year are not the result of firework displays.” Since June 2012, NUFORC has been inundated with reports of clusters of red, orange, or yellow “fireballs,” for absence of a better term. We are very interested in this continuing phenomenon, even though we have absolutely no idea what the objects are. We recognize that in some cases, the luminous objects may be so-called “Chinese lanterns.” However, some characteristics of the objects strongly militate against that explanation”
One of the telephoned reports of orange “fireballs” we have received for July 4th was submitted by a former U. S. astronaut and Space Shuttle crew member. We are awaiting follow-up written reports from the three members of his family who observed the object(s), and we will post those reports as quickly as we can. The witness has stated that he is prepared to be identified publicly, and he probably will appear as a guest on a radio program, to describe his sighting.
Editor’s Note: We strongly suspect these fireballs represent a new presence in our skies. MUFON and UFOs Northwest have also received large numbers of similar reports.
California Lights
San Leandro -- While sitting in my
kitchen at 11:30 pm, I saw a bright light hovering over the Half Moon Bay
Mountains for about 30 minutes +
on July 12, 2013. Then as I watched I noticed it was coming closer so I pulled out my camera and started to tape it. I zoomed in on it and tell me what you think a large rectangle shaped vessel with orbs floating through, it looks like small space ships. Then it pulled back and changed shape and started traveling SE till out of sight. Thanks to MUFON CMS

SAN BRUNO -- I was at home when I first noticed the object. It was a dim light in the sky and as I watched it on February 2, 2013. It started to glow brighter then dim out off and on. At first I thought it was a plane until it started brightening and dimming. After a while it started slowly moving to the left after hovering for about 30 minutes. So we jumped in the car and drove towards it. As we got closer we were able to get a better shot of it and were shocked at what we saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Orb
Palm Bay -- I was at my friend’s house in
Palm Bay watching the fireworks on July 4th, 2013. We were talking
about UFOs, aliens, and life on other planets. All of the sudden I look over to
see a yellowish/reddish orange orb! I first noticed the object because of its
unusual size, glow, and the way it moved across the sky. I quickly busted out my
Droid Razr phone, and took a video of the orb as it moved to the NW, low and
slow.
The object slowly seemed to hover/move silently. After about 30-40 seconds of viewing, the orb began to radiate a specific BLUE color. It wasn’t like anything I’d ever seen from common aircraft like planes, helicopters, or whatever else is up there. I walked away from this experience believing I had witnessed, and video recorded a possible UFO or a real UFO of an extraterrestrial nature. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Orbs
Belleville -- I saw four
consecutive red lights in the sky near the border of Freeburg, IL. They were in
an Orion’s Belt kind of formation. It was about 9:09 PM, on July 4, 2013. Two of
the most northern lights moved with incredible speed went from their frozen
state in the sky to the west about two miles and came back to the same spot.
I was in my truck at the time heading down Mascoutah Roa d and I know that it wasn’t fireworks, because the fireworks dimmed away. These stayed in place for minutes, moved around and then vanished. The two glowing dots in the photo on the bottom and middle of the photo are part of the formation of the UFO. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Indiana Lights
South Bend -- I live about four miles
north of downtown and at 10:15 pm on July 13 2013, I looked out of my living
room window to the south and saw a red/orange object going to west. It was twice
the size of the brightest star. I saw two of them and filmed them until they
went behind my neighbors trees. I saw that there were three more coming into
view and I filmed them as well. When I zoomed into the last one it changed
colors rapidly. They were all traveling at the same speed in a minute to a
minute and a half. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Clinton -- The evening of July 3, 2013, at
10:30 pm, I took the following photos. I was able to follow the UFO, observe it,
and take these photos all at the same time. I first saw the UFO while I was in
the parking lot at Wal-Mart which is six miles east of Blanford where I live.
The object moved east and changed color from white to orange. The sky had grown
darker that might account for the color change. The thing kept going east until
out of sight. The last three photos are blurry from being enlarged. Take care.
Richard.
Missouri
Arch-
St. Louis – On July 4,
2013, I was watching the fireworks at the Arch Grounds and took two pictures of
the Arch. The first picture was normal, but the second had a grey line in the
middle. I zoomed in a noticed it looked like a UFO.
Note: The time of the photo seems a little early to be watching fireworks as it was daylight. The witness has been contacted to verify the time of the photo. Updates will be posted. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
New Jersey15 Bright Orbs
moorestown -- I was traveling with my fiancé down Westfield Road when we spotted a police officer make a sharp turn and park down a street and observing a bunch of glowing red orbs in the sky. At first we thought it could have been a flyover for the last day of fireworks, but as time went on this scenario seemed less likely to be. They were all traveling in close proximity to one another. There must have been over 15 of them.
The red lights were flashing sequentially bright then dull bright then dull. The objects didn’t flutter or change direction suddenly. There were over 500 lights moving fast, and helicopters in the air but not close to them, but you can tell the difference. There were also planes flying above to. I’m curious as to what the cop saw or why there were over six cars pulled to the side of the road. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Cylinder
MEBANE --Sitting out back on the deck I was looking up when I noticed a bright white cylinder travelling very fast SE on July 7, 2013. We heard nothing and it had no contrail in the clear blue sky. My daughter and I remarked that it seemed to be going way faster than commercial aircraft. It also was not on normal flight path that the commercial jets take. It was just a bright white light. If it was a military jet it was flying faster than sound, but we heard nothing. It crossed the sky in about three seconds.. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Orbs
MOUNT ORAB -- I was outside doing yard work on July 12,
2013, when a helicopter approached from the south at 1 pm-. It was a military
Blackhawk with no observable markings, traveling at high elevation and speed.
Despite the altitude, the engine noise was very loud, which led me to believe it
was at full throttle and traveling behind it were three dark objects. I first
thought they were birds due to their small size and erratic movements but it
became apparent they were at similar elevation and speed.
The objects were tiny, almost invisible unless silhouetted against a cloud. They were some kind of plate shape (wide and thin) and spent most of the observed time banking, leaving only the slim profile to observe. They were black, and very small. As far as I could tell, they changed elevation easily. In the first 60 seconds of my observation, they trailed behind the helicopter, flying in a loose triangle formation. The three individual objects were banking in and out of formation. In the last 60 seconds, they broke formation and gained altitude and one got ahead of the helicopter twisting in an S maneuver out of my line of sight. The other two climbed above the clouds only visible briefly in breaks of the cloud. The helicopter never deviated course as the objects flew above it at all times. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldufophotos.org
Oregon Ball
SEASIDE --I saw a big orange ball
floating up then stopping and heading east on July 4, 2013, at 11 PM. My friend
got a very up close and personal video.
The video I have is from Salem Oregon! The ball moved very slow at first on its way up, then started east slowly for about 30 seconds and then flew across the sky at tremendous speed! Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Orbs
Leander – I was visiting my son’s grave
and took a photo of white and black objects in the sky over the Bagdad Cemetery.
I was focusing on the interesting cloud formation and don’t recall seeing these objects. I took more pictures through the car window a few days later, but the white object did not appear in these pictures. Someone suggested that my windshield could have been dirty
Note: The white area is a rain shaft. The dark objects “could be” windblown debris ahead of the thunderstorm. A review of weather conditions near the sighting showed that winds were gusting to 25 MPH. It is doubtful that the objects are due to spots on the car window because the objects only appear in one photo.
Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Australia Airline Disc and Light

Brisbane -- I'm a very keen aviation photographer and on 1st of July 2007, I went out to Airport to take photos of aircraft from 10 am till 6 pm. I would usually take my Canon EOS 350D with 70-200 mm lens. Somewhere around 4 pm, a Qantas 767 aircraft departed for Melbourne flying about 450 feet altitude when I shot this climbing jet and a possible UFO at the bottom right of the photo.
Looking at the image the plane is climbing out over runway 19 south, and I was looking east towards Fisherman Island. I was firing a whole series of photo's, usually at birds but was not aware of this. I reviewed all my photo's and saw that spot. I just thought I'd share with you and see what your opinion maybe. Cheers, Norbert Vari. Thanks to MUFON Thanks to MUFON CMS

Darley,
Victoria – A weird light was seen in the sky on June
29, 2013, at 7 pm. It
was pulsating and changing color and the object had NO
sound. There were no other lights near it.
The video footage has been
circulated via internet, you tube, and Facebook, but as of yet there has been no
explanation for this object, so it remains unidentified. It also set the dogs in
the neighborhood off, barking, and my German Shepherds clearly did not want me
outside. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Canada Orbs
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia – On June5, 2013,
I was taking pictures of a bird and noticed first orb like glow but while going
through the rest of the photos I noticed something different color and shape
than what I had seen. I am now submitting both photos together and zoomed in so
you can decide what they are. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Notre-Dame-du-Nord -- My friend took and sent me that digital photo of the moon from Quebec and we can see an object near the moon. We would like to know what you think of it, because in her area and also in mine lots of thing happening in the sky. She noticed after she took the photo on June 26, 2013, and she kept watching it after for a while. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Egypt Disc

Cairo – I was at my vacation at the Giza Pyramids on May 20,
2013. I was on the camel heading away from the pyramids, when doing this; I was
taking lots of photos with my galaxy S3, with the frontal camera.
I did
not realize the UFO until I got home, when I started to look at the photos. I
thought immediately that it is a UFO. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Sicilia, Italy Triangle
Villaggio Mosè -- The flying object had a strange movement on June 24, 2013. It would accelerate, then stop, start immediately and shooting away. The lights were astern chasing each other and constantly changing color. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Portugal Light
Camacha – A super bright light crossed the sky at medium speed and slowly rose up until it disappeared in the night sky on June 25, 2013, at 11:25 PM. A super bright light crossed the sky from west to east over the island of Madeira, Portugal. No light strobes where seen or sounds where heard. The light crossed the sky at medium speed and slowly rose up until it disappeared in the night sky in 90 seconds. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
Spain UFO
A Coruña -- We are walking on the beach when a UFO appears in one of the photos on June 14, 2013. Thanks to MUFON Thanks to MUFON CMS
Taiwan Disk
East, 〠-- My sister drove home next to the bridge on June 24, 1013, and saw a beautiful sunrise and took pictures. The first image was strange so immediately pressed the second shutter. I checked the photos and found the first photo was of a disc that turned out to be a very clear UFO. I immediately checked the second photo which does not have any UFO. The whole family is shocked in disbelief. I have twice in the same place seen flying objects that I suspect are UFOs as well as points of light hovering in the vicinity. I hope to keep this place quiet. We are willing to provide photos to our users agree, but we will retain the photo's copyright. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
Tunisia Light

ONCE UPON A MISSING TIME A novel of alien abduction Philip Mantle ONCE UPON A MISSING TIME is a powerful and emotional journey involving married couple Alan and Pamela Morrison and their teenage daughter Wendy. Alan is a teacher at the local High School and his wife Pamela is a social worker for the local authority. One night whilst driving back from their in-laws home near the rural North Yorkshire village of East Yardsley, the Morrison family encounter something that would change their lives and world view forever. The Morrison’s have a close encounter, a close encounter with something quite extraordinary. On arriving home they discover nearly four hours of their lives MISSING. Plagued by nightmarish shared dreams the Morrison’s look for answers for their ‘MISSING TIME’. Their search for answers threatens to tear the family apart, leaving them with lives that will never be the same again. Set in rural England in 1990 this was an era before the internet and the digital age. The Morrison family search for answers that eventually ends in frustration and betrayal. This is not a story about alien visitation but rather how a family try desperately to cope with a phenomenon that no one seems to understand. Although a work of fiction ‘ONCE UPON A MISSING TIME’ is based on real life “Close Encounter” cases from the UK. All of the characters in this drama are based on people who have either experienced this phenomena first hand or have been UFO investigators. The names, locations and professions of all have been changed to protect the individuals concerned. Once you have read ‘ONCE UPON A MISSING TIME’ you will realise that the phrase ‘Close Encounter’ was not just a figment of Steven Spielberg’s imagination. Philip Mantle is an international UFO researcher, lecturer and broadcaster. His books have been published in six different languages around the world. He is the former Director of Investigations for the British UFO Research Association and former MUFON representative for England. Philip has written articles and features for numerous publications around the world and has been both editor and assistant editor of high street UFO publications. He lives in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, England. Philip can be contacted via email at: philip.mantle@gmail.com http://richarddolanpress.com/once-upon-a-missing-time/

Mr. Pope, UFO Games, Your Cup Of Tea?

Sebastian Haley/GamesBeat
Nick Pope was an UFO investigator for the British for 21 years. He now serves as a consultant for all kinds of alien-related entertainment projects, including the new The Bureau: XCOM Declassified game.
Depending on your disposition to the idea of a real-life X-Files program, the name Nick Pope may have one of a variety of effects on you. Pope has long been a staple of the ufology scene thanks to his role as a UFO investigator during the 21 years he worked for the the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense. Naturally, he’s now involved in the new XCOM game.
GamesBeat met with Pope at a private The Bureau: XCOM Declassified event held by developer 2K Marin and publisher 2K Games. You can read our thoughts on the game itself, along with developer interviews, in our hands-on preview.
GamesBeat: Can you start off with the general overview of your responsibilities as a UFO investigator?
Nick Pope: I had to basically investigate UFO sightings and see if they were any potential threat or, more generally, if they were of any defense interest. We didn’t take a view on what they might or might not be. We just said, “Look, people have seen things.” Particularly, as it’s often alleged, these were solid-structured things in our airspace. That made it a defense issue. That made it a national security issue.
But like I say, we didn’t take a view on whether we were dealing with aliens or whether we were dealing, as was the original thinking, with maybe the next generation of Soviet spy planes or drones, something like that. That was basically the job. Through that, anything else weird or wonderful that there wasn’t a place for in government kind of came our way by default, particularly if it was perceived that there was a link with UFOs. Alien abductions, crop circles. We found ourselves getting all the weird stuff, like people who had seen ghosts at military bases. That’s why it has been called the real-life X-Files.
GamesBeat: What do you do now?
Pope: Basically, I work as a freelance writer and broadcaster. I’ve written a couple of sci-fi books. I do a lot of TV work on shows like Ancient Aliens. I’ve worked with some of the Hollywood film companies on some of the PR for movie launches, if there’s an alien theme. I guess people come to me and say, “Well, we’re doing this as fiction, but there’s very often an interesting tie-in. Is any of this actually true?”
GamesBeat: Some of your findings over the past couple of decades have been declassified recently, is that correct?
Pope: Yeah, almost literally just two weeks ago, three weeks ago. The British government finished what had been a five-year program to declassify and release the entire archive. That was round about 52,000 pages of documents. A lot of it was just fire lanterns and weather balloons and things like that. But there were some more interesting cases in there too.
GamesBeat: Can you share some of the highlights?
Pope: Sure. The most famous case in there – and I think it’s a better case than Roswell – is something called the Rendelsham Forest incident.
This was December 1980. A UFO was actually seen to land in a forest between two military bases. This was in the U.K., but they were American Air Force bases. This small triangular craft of some sort came down in a small clearing, and a patrol of security police, who had originally thought a plane had crashed, went out and encountered this weird thing. They saw strange symbols on the side of it that looked a bit like Egyptian hieroglyphs. Then it rose up above the ground very slowly, cleared the treetops, and shot away to the horizon in an instant. Two days later it came back. It didn’t land that time, but it was flying around in the area.
The witnesses included the deputy base commander. They went back to the clearing where this thing had landed on the first night and they found indentations, showing that something heavy had been there. They took a Geiger counter out there and found that the radiation levels seemed to be significantly higher than background. It’s a phenomenal story. Some of the guys now have health issues. There’s talk of a federal lawsuit.
There’s a whole bunch of former congresspeople that just wrote, at the beginning of May, a letter to the secretary of the Veteran’s Affairs department and to the president saying, “The two guys who got close to this can’t get their medical records out of the system. Please help them.” It’s a really good case, because it’s not just anecdotal. Like you said in your question, there is a declassified and released audit trail of government documents to show that this happened.
GamesBeat: It’s interesting that you worked on not only your own fiction but also Hollywood and now games. Do you feel like the surplus of fiction surrounding this topic colors people’s opinion as to whether something like this could ever be real?
Pope: There’s a whole bunch of conspiracy theories about this. Science fiction and the whole idea of aliens, in movies and computer games, is so embedded now in the public consciousness that it’s difficult to separate the fact and the fiction. Some people think that Hollywood movies and computer games are one of the ways in which governments slowly acclimatize people to this. There used to be this old theory that you couldn’t say this was real, because there would be panic in the streets.
But what if you slipped it out generally, slowly, over the years, in all these movies, so that people were so used to the idea? I think the opinion polls now show that round about 50 percent of people think there’s visitation by aliens. A much higher percentage believes that there’s life out there in the universe, but around 50 percent, I think, think they’re coming here. A sizable number of those people think that governments know more about it than they’re letting on. I don’t know. It’s odd, because if that was the case, it’s a slightly mixed message. You get good aliens like E.T. and then you get the whole Independence Day, War of the Worlds, XCOM thing, which is more about full-on violence and invasion.
I suppose it’s a point about films more generally, that it’s more likely that movies and computer games will show aliens hostile, because it gives you that whole dynamic of a struggle to deal with. With a movie like E.T., it’s just getting home, and that’s it.
GamesBeat: And feed him Reese’s Pieces. So what has been your contribution to the XCOM project?
Pope: It’s basically just helping, maybe, to start a conversation with the people that play the game, to ask the sort of questions that we’re getting to. “Could any of this be based in reality?” “Did something like Roswell, for example, really happen?” And if it did, questions like, “Would the government keep it secret?” and “Could you keep a thing like this a secret?” Which I think are two different questions. I think, on the first answer, it’s probably, “Yes, you would keep it secret.”
I think technology acquisition gets to the heart of it. Hopefully this is the sort of thing that I can contribute to a conversation about this. The country – or corporation, maybe – that first gets its hands on alien technology, if such a thing exists, is going to have such a huge advantage that the stakes are high enough to justify secrecy. You’d want it for yourself. So, going back in time, if Roswell really happened, you could understand that some overenthusiastic base PR person said, “Oh, we’ve got one of these flying disks,” and then high command stepped in and said, “No, it’s a weather balloon” and took it away to hangar and worked on that.
You wouldn’t want to share that with the Soviets, particularly with the Cold War just starting.
GamesBeat: What do you think of the game so far?
Pope: Oh, I love it. I’m not just saying that. I mean—I guess I was brought up, maybe, in an era where games were just a few pixels moving clumsily across the screen. I can’t even remember what they were called. What was that one where you just bounced it around?
GamesBeat: Pong?
Pope: Pong! I’m probably showing my age there. But you look at something like The Bureau, and it’s just, “My God.” The other thing is, I love that whole style of the ’60s, whether it’s the cars or the shops, the signs. It’s got a nice feel to it as well. Like I say, I don’t play these games, so I can’t, I’m afraid, give any sort of technical-insight clever answer to that. But I’ve obviously sat in on some meetings; I’ve looked at it, and I’ve thought, “Wow, that’s impressive.”
GamesBeat: In all your decades of work that you’ve done and your hypothesizing and discussion and so on, if you turned on the news and saw that aliens were arriving – lights in the sky and that kind of stuff – would you be excited, or would you be worried?
Pope: Both. I’d see it as almost a validation or a culmination of a quest that I guess I’ve been on. But also—I guess, self-evidently, if aliens get here, given that we can only just about slowly send a few space probes out to the edge of our solar system, if somebody has cracked viable interstellar travel, they’ve got technology orders of magnitude above and beyond anything we’ve got. So I couldn’t help but be worried.
I think Stephen Hawking said this – it would be like the European explorers meeting the Native Americans, only we’re the Native Americans. We’d have to hope that alien visitors are explorers, ambassadors, adventurers, and not the sort of cynical exploiters that, sadly, in human history we’ve tended to be when we encounter new territories. So we’re going to have to hope that they’re friendly and altruistic, because if they’re not, we’re in trouble.
GamesBeat: We can hope that it doesn’t come back on us, all the terrible things that we’ve done to other civilizations.
Pope: Yes. It would be a kind of cosmic karma, I suppose, if it did. Our only hope would be that great staple of sci-fi, to use the aliens’ own technology against them.
GamesBeat: Or water and air, in the case of Signs and War of the Worlds.
Pope: [Laughs] Yeah, or Independence Day: Just plug your laptop in and take down the entire alien defense system.
GamesBeat: I think the secret is just to have Randy Quaid on speed dial and to keep his crop-duster fueled.

We Too Stupid To Receive Alien Attention? In a word ... YES!
(Mass mainstream thinking anyway.) |
Has The Culprit Finally Been Found?

When it comes to UFO reports, people often witness helicopters in close proximity to unidentified flying objects. While there are several examples of this, none are more well-known than the Cash-Landrum incident. The sighting occurred on December 29, 1980 and is one of the few cases in which the witnesses experienced adverse health issues as a result of it. In addition, it would later lead to a civil suit against the US government for damages.
On that fateful night, Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum and her grandson Colby were
driving home to Dayton, Texas. As they traveled down Farm-To-Market Rd 1485, a
desolate stretch of road in Piney Woods northeast of Houston, Colby noticed a
light ahead of them just over the tree line. Initially their first thought was
it's an airplane or helicopter from one of the nearby airfields. However, once
it got closer they realized this was no ordinary aircraft.
The UFO, which now hovered over the road directly in front of them, was shaped like a diamond with the top and bottom cutoff. At regular intervals it was shooting out an intense stream of reddish-orange flames from the bottom. They described it as something akin to a rocket blast. Betty had brought the car to an immediate stop to avoid driving underneath it.
The cars heater had been on to fight the cold chill of that late December night. Yet Betty had to turn it off as the vehicle became extremely hot inside. The three occupants soon exited the car because of it. Once outside they could hear a roaring sound coming from the UFO. As well, they also heard a constant beeping sound being emitted from the craft. They also felt an immense amount of heat radiating from the craft. Their faces felt as if they were burning.
Scared, Colby Landrum and his grandmother went back into the car in search of
safety. Betty, fascinated by what see was seeing, had decided to stay outside.
Not a believer in UFOs or ET, she felt this was the return of Christ and the end
of the world. As they all watched this spectacle, the sky was soon filled with
helicopters. According to the witnesses, they observed around 23 of them which
they later identified as both Chinook and Huey copters.
Betty soon returned to the vehicle, but burned herself while trying to open the door. The car had become extremely hot to the touch. Using her leather coat, she opened the door and entered the vehicle. Soon thereafter, the UFO slowly ascended with the helicopters in tow as it disappeared off into the distance.
In short, this is the just of what happened that night.
Fast-forward almost 19 years to the day, a then secret military aircraft would soon make headlines as the result of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by the magazine Popular Mechanics. The craft, named the Lenticular Reentry Vehicle (LVR), was a nuclear flying saucer designed by the Los Angeles Division of North American Aviation under contract with the U.S. Air Force. Until then, this flying saucer had been hidden away for years under the Pentagons cloak of “black budget” secrets. The project was classified from 1962 until December 28, 1999 when it was cleared for public release.
The LVR held a crew of four and would have operated at an orbital altitude of 300 nautical miles, a distance equal to that of the Earth's atmosphere. It was designed for missions of a six-week duration. The propulsion on this saucer was accomplished through its dual nuclear rocket engines and onboard nuclear powerplants. The craft was built to rain hell down on any enemy at a moments notice with its arsenal of nuclear missiles.
Dr. Brian McClelland, Betty Cash's personal physician, later stated that the witnesses suffered radiation exposure on a level felt three to five miles from ground zero of Hiroshima or 2-3 grays of radiation. A full-body exposure at one time to 5 gray or more from high-energy radiation leads to death within 14 days. The victims encounter only lasted for approximately 15 minutes. All three had classic symptoms of exposure from nausea, vomiting and burns, to hair loss, swelling and diarrhea. Their health issues were immediate, starting only a few hours after the sighting.
Keep in mind it was Dr. McClelland who also stated an inside source informed him this UFO was an experimental nuclear craft called the WASP II.
They reported that the UFO appeared to be in trouble and was having difficulties. As mentioned, it was emitting a loud pitched beep a regular intervals. Might this beep have been an emergency warning system triggered as a result of a failing nuclear reactor onboard this experimental aircraft? Or could it be this craft was equipped with a nuclear rocket propulsion system and the described rocket blasts coming out the bottom were producing a radioactive exhaust?
Given the degree to which they suffered as a result of their exposure, is it a reasonable assumption that the pilot and crew of this troubled UFO possibly received a lethal dose of radiation. The diamond craft was a substantial size and would have warranted a crew larger than just a single pilot. Sadly, if the cockpit and crew were not protected, they likely died within weeks after the incident.
In the LVR example, the aircraft was not equipped with any protective layer between the occupants and nuclear reactors. Instead, it was designed for the emergency ejection of a smaller craft that separated from the saucer and returned its crew safely to Earth. Considering the Cash-Landrum UFO was under intelligent control throughout their encounter, it would seem apparent that this crew stayed with it until the very end.
Why would they put civilians at risk by hovering this nuclear disaster over a public road for such an extended length of time? Knowing they were making their last flight before certain death, did they hope to expose this experimental aircraft before resigning to their death beds? In essence, making a death bed confession. The area surrounding their encounter had a number of open fields the craft could have used as opposed to a public road. These are questions that may never be answered.
In regards to the Chinook and Huey helicopters escorting it, they were likely dispatched to assist in the recovery of this craft should it crash or the crew fail. Never have so many copters been witnessed around a UFO at one time. This was probably due to the severe nature of the incident. Essentially, the military was dealing with a potential nuclear disaster over a populated area on a scale seldom seen in history. They would have been tasked with securing the crash site as well as the immediate evacuation of the public surrounding it.
That said, it's doesn't take a large leap of faith to believe this UFO was
man-made. Clearly the evidence points more to that being the case as opposed to
extraterrestrials. While it's probable that humanity has been visited on
multiple occasions, this is not one such example. Instead, Betty Cash, Vickie
Landrum and grandson Colby were the victims of an experimental nuclear aircraft
that went awry. One in which officialdom still denies...
Can You Tell The Difference Between You & Us? - No, Everybody Looks The Same To Me!
We've seen them portrayed in a vast variety of Hollywood films, from the nasty, slimy suckers shown in Independence Day to the precious, teddy-bear-esque creature that charmed us in E.T. But which is closer to the truth? As our understanding of the universe grows and the outlook on our existence is in turn humbled, scientists are beginning to theorize what these extraterrestrials might look like. While opinions can certainly vary (we all have them, no doubt), scientists are forming theirs on the basis of environmental and biological clues rather than science fiction. Does that mean we're closer to the answer? Of course not! Read on below to see the various forms of life scientists are predicting.
1. JELLYFISH
Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock, who works for space
firm Astrium, believes
that aliens would be marine-type animals with "pulses of light for
communication with other aliens, mouth type openings to scope chemicals from
atmosphere for growth and reproduction, bodies that enlarge in sunlight,
metallic surfaces for absorbing light, lenses for detailed viewing of their
surroundings, orange undersides for camouflage, buoyancy sacks to maintain
altitude." She bases this on her theory of how life began in the ocean here on
earth and draws the conclusion that creatures could interact with a foreign
atmosphere the same way organisms in our oceans interact with water.
2. BUGS
Cockroaches are among our planet's most
indestructible creatures thanks to their thick exoskeleton, able to survive a
very large range of intense conditions (including, some
say, nuclear war). This makes a bug-style life form (intelligent or not)
with strong armor a
good bet when it comes to the myriad of environments which our universe
contains.
3. JUST LIKE HUMANS
Simon
Conway Morris, professor of evolutionary paleobiology at Cambridge
University, thinks that aliens would be "just like humans," not only in
appearance and biology but in weaknesses, such as "greed, violence and a
tendency to exploit others' resources."
"My view is that Darwinian evolution is really quite predictable," Morris says, "and when you have a biosphere and evolution takes over, then common themes emerge and the same is true for intelligence."
Whether aliens being "just like us" would be a good thing or a bad thing is up for debate!
4. NON-CARBON LIFE
Based on what we know about life as it
exists on Earth, it's understandable why many scientists, including Morris,
would subscribe to the idea that aliens will look like humans. But while most of
the life found on planet Earth is composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen,
oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur, scientists found multicellular organisms that do
not need oxygen back in 2010 (only bacteria were thought to have this trait
prior). This obviously opened up a few questions about the way we view life and
how it can exist. Scientific hypotheses exist today that suggest non-carbon
based life could exist in the universe — the
trendy pick is now silicon-based life forms — and if this turns out to be
true, chances are that it would look nothing like that found on our planet.
5. CREATURES OF THE EXTREMES: DEEP SEA AND HIGH AIR
For
example, in the Discovery Canada show Aliens: The Definitive Guide, Dr.
Lewis Dartnell, an astrobiologist at University College London, laid
out a few possibilities for aliens that might come from planets unlike our
own. Creatures from "water worlds" might develop along the lines of the
organisms we find in the bowels of our oceans, and a planet with a heavy gravity
could support bigger, larger, and more powerful "flying creatures" that take
advantage of the thick and dense atmosphere.
Have any ideas of your own about what E.T. might look like? Feel free to leave them in the comments below.

US Navy plan to prepare for extraterrestrials among us secretly developed in 1998
Catherine Fitts claims that in 1998 the Undersecretary of the U.S. Navy had commissioned a “high level strategic plan” to prepare the American public for an official announcement that extraterrestrials exist and live among us. She wrote:
In 1998, I was approached by John Peterson, head of the Arlington Institute, a small high quality military think tank in Washington, DC. I had gotten to know John through Global Business Network and had been impressed by his intelligence, effectiveness and compassion. John asked me to help him with a high level strategic plan Arlington was planning to undertake for the Undersecretary of the Navy. At the time I was the target of an intense smear campaign that would lead the normal person to assume that I would be in jail shortly or worse. John explained that the Navy understood that it was all politics —- they did not care. I met with a group of high level people in the military in the process — including the Undersecretary. According to John, the purpose of the plan — discussed in front of several military or retired military officers and former government officials— was to help the Navy adjust their operations for a world in which it was commonly known that aliens exist and live among us. When John explained this purpose to me, I explained that I did not know that aliens existed and lived among us. John asked me if I would like to meet some aliens. For the only time in my life, I declined an opportunity to learn about something important.In March 2008 I was planning to write an article about Ms Fitts claims, and began my investigation by first contacting her to elaborate or clarify her earlier recollection. Fitts said she had nothing to add to what had already been released to the public. I then contacted John Petersen, President of the Arlington Institute. He flatly denied Ms Fitts claims and offered to put me in communication with other members of the Board of Directors to get independent confirmation. In subsequent email communications with Joe Firmage, another Board member, he also denied Ms Fitts version of events, and did not recall any meetings where she was also present where the issue of extraterrestrial life was discussed. I was unsuccessful in reaching Jerry MacArthur Hultin, who served as Undersecretary of the Navy during the period mentioned by Fitts.
To varying degrees, Petersen and Firmage both claimed there was no substance to Fitts story. Petersen was especially insistent that Fitts had contrived the entire scenario. Given that two members of the Arlington Institute Board of Directors directly contradicted her version of events, and I was not able to find any other witnesses to support her claims, I decided to postpone writing an article on the incident until independent confirmation could be found.
Almost five years later, in my recently published book, Galactic Diplomacy: Getting to Yes with ET, I included the incident described by Catherine Fitts along with the denial by John Petersen and Joe Firmage. I wrote:I have been able to confirm that Fitts served on the Board of Directors of the Arlington Institute during the period in question, and that extraterrestrial life was discussed at some of its closed door meetings as a hypothetical “wildcard event.” However, Fitts’ specific claim of there being a strategic plan sponsored by the U.S. Navy to prepare the public for disclosure of extraterrestrial life, or of a possible meeting an extraterrestrial, was not supported by other Board members.414In the footnote 414, I gave some details of my communications with Petersen and Firmage. On July 4, 2013 I received a short email by Ms Fitts with a subject header referencing footnote 414 in my Galactic Diplomacy book where I elaborated on the repudiation of her claims by Arlington Institute Board members. The content of her email directed me to a new page on her Solari website which was just uploaded. She wrote:
In the spirit of Independence Day, I am publishing the minutes of the board meeting of the Arlington Institute on April 10th, 2000. I have repeatedly stated that I would do so if my description of this meeting was contradicted by any of the members.With the publication of Galactic Diplomacy, the contradiction of her version of events by other Arlington Institute Board members was now part of the public record. Consequently, Fitts felt free to release documentation supporting her version of events – Minutes of the March 26, 1999 Board of Directors meeting. The Minutes of the meeting state:
Mr. Petersen then reported that the Institute had been approached to determine if it was interested in publishing a study by Pickford and Lindemann on the subject of life outside of the earth. After discussion, there was general agreement that publication of the study would be a good idea and would be consistent with the work otherwise being done by the Institute with respect to wild cards.While the study mentioned by Pickford and Lindemann is not identified, here is an online account of eight alien contact scenarios they developed for a workshop on extraterrestrial contact as recalled by one of the participants:
Called the second “Contact Planning” meeting and held in Denver, Colorado, this workshop was sponsored by the International Space Sciences Organization and organized by Kyle Pickford and Michael Lindemann…. We spent one afternoon in five groups: business, religion, science, government, and media/public. Each group role-played its behavior for each of eight scenarios. Although I have read lots of literature on post-contact behavior, this was the first time that I deeply grasped just how people in each of those categories may actually behave right after contact…. What can we do now to prepare? We spent the last few hours of the meeting generating and clustering various strategic planning possibilities. A large number of these ideas clearly fit into two clusters that I find very encouraging: (a) tell the general public the truth right away and (b) prepare to communicate and negotiate with ETI in a friendly and cooperative manner, even if its behavior seems unfriendly.The minutes of the meeting confirm that the Arlington Institute was discussing extraterrestrial contact scenarios in at least one Board of Directors meeting as Fitts claimed. Importantly, the minutes confirm that the Arlington Institute was doing work for clients that involved extraterrestrial contact as a wild card issue. According to Ms Fitts, one of these clients was the US Navy.
In private email communications, Petersen confirmed that Fitts did participate in a Navy Project conducted by the Arlington Institute, and that the extraterrestrial contact issue did come up as a “wild card” future scenario event. However, he pointed out that there was no strategic plan commissioned by the US Navy to prepare the public for extraterrestrial contact as claimed by Fitts.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlOCMwSb6Ec&feature=player_embedded
There remains substantial differences between Catherine Fitts and John Petersen over the extent to which the US Navy interest in extraterrestrial contact issues was part of a strategic study as Fitts claims, or simply part of ad hoc discussions as Petersen contends. Nevertheless, the official Board minutes released by Fitts does lend support to her main claim that the US Navy commissioned a project with the Arlington Institute for its expertise on wild card future scenarios involving extraterrestrial contact. It can therefore be concluded with some confidence that official efforts began in 1998 by the US Navy to prepare for a world where extraterrestrials exist and are living among the human population.© Copyright 2013.

UN DOSSIER QUI AVANCE : LE PROJET LICORNE
Le projet Licorne 2 est basé sur la création d’un outil scientifique innovant, à la disposition de tous, qui permettra une avancée dans l’étude du phénomène.
Ce projet, c’est tout simplement la réalisation d’une base de donnée, la plus universelle possible, élaborée en
corrélation avec des groupes de recherche en France et des échanges d’informations avec des structures
d’études du phénomène situées aux Etats-Unis ou dans d’autres pays. Elle devra contenir un grand nombre
d’informations, mettre à disposition un maximum de cas détaillés ou enquêtés.
Il existe un certain nombre de projets relatifs à des bases de données, mais soit ils n’ont pas abouti, soit ils
stagnent et ne répondent pas aux exigences actuelles.
Licorne 2 est la poursuite d’un projet élaboré en 1989 par le groupe Magonia, sous le nom de « Licorne »
bien étudié, très approfondi ; mais qui n’a pu aboutir à l’époque faute de moyens financiers. Ce projet va donc

chercheurs associés. Nous sommes en face d’un phénomène qui présente d’extrêmes disparités face aux
diverses situations et il est indispensable de mettre en place un système souple, évolutif et facile d’emploi

OVNI LYON ET LES RENCONTRES DES SCIENCES ET DE L'INEXPLIQUE
SAMEDI 23 NOVEMBRE 2013
NOUS
AVONS LE PLAISIR D'ACCUEILLIR : 
MONSIEUR JEAN-GABRIEL GRESLE
1942-1954 : LA GENESE D'UN SECRET D'ETAT
« 1942-1954, la genèse d’un secret d’Etat », vient couronner en quelque sorte le travail considérable qui avait déjà été accompli et qui avait abouti à la publication de deux ouvrages majeurs pour la compréhension de cette période charnière dans l’histoire de l’humanité : « Extraterrestres : secret d’Etat », et «Documents interdits, la fin d’un secret».
Avec ce dernier opus, le commandant Greslé est allé aussi loin qu’il est possible d’aller en se basant exclusivement sur l’étude minutieuse de documents officiels. Il a montré que la question des ovnis pouvait être un sujet d'étude sérieux pour les historiens, comme la guerre de 100 ans ou la chute de Rome par exemple. Rien n'empêchait de l'examiner sous cet angle et d'en tirer des résultats significatifs. L’ensemble des trois livres forme un tout d’une cohérence irréprochable, et c’est ce qui importe le plus en définitive. La cohérence de l’ensemble rend acceptable le fait qu’il puisse y avoir des éléments dont l’origine est incertaine. La rigueur méthodologique n’est jamais prise en défaut et l’analyse des documents montre une grande connaissance de la façon dont fonctionnent les services de renseignements et la hiérarchie militaire.
Le pari initial était risqué : introduire dans la démonstration des documents dont l’authenticité n’était pas établie à 100%. C’est un exercice à haut risque qui demande de maintenir constamment en alerte son sens critique et de toujours envisager les choses sous plusieurs angles à la fois. Le pari a été tenu, et l’auteur a su rester en équilibre sur la « corde raide » jusqu’au bout si je puis dire.
Le piège à éviter était de considérer ces documents soit comme totalement faux ou, au contraire, comme totalement vrais. S’ils sont totalement faux, ils ne sont d’aucune utilité pour la démonstration, mais d’un autre côté, un doute ne cesse de planer sur l’origine réelle de ces documents. Alors comment faire ? La seule solution est d’évaluer le degré de fiabilité de chaque document pris séparément. Au terme de ce fastidieux travail, la conclusion qui s’impose est qu’une partie seulement des documents est douteuse et que le reste peut être considérée comme fiable. A partir de là, la démonstration se déroulait d’elle-même et les conclusions se déduisaient sans difficulté.
Les conclusions qui s’imposent sont énormes et dérangeantes, mais Jean-Gabriel Greslé fait preuve d’une grande lucidité vis-à-vis de la question d’une présence extraterrestre dans notre environnement. Il va au fond des choses et il ne craint pas d’évoquer certains aspects du problème ovni qui pourraient perturber nos institutions. Comme, par exemple, la présence parmi nous d’être humanoïdes extraterrestres qui pourraient s’infiltrer dans tous les rouages de notre société sans que nous le sachions.
Désormais, les questions que nous devons aborder sont celles qui se rapportent à l’évaluation de l’écart technologique entre eux et nous. Si nous considérons le fait que plusieurs ethnies sont déjà présentes dans le système solaire la question de l’écart technologique devient complexe. Pour certaines ethnies, l’écart n’est peut-être pas aussi considérable que cela. Il pourrait être que de quelques centaines où milliers d’années. Les disques volants récupérés pourraient faire partie de cette catégorie. Pour des ethnies supérieures, l’écart pourrait se chiffrer en dizaines ou en centaines de milliers d’années. Le comportement de certains « vaisseaux » laissent penser que des ethnies de ce niveau se manifestent aussi dans notre environnement. Enfin, en ce qui concerne les ethnies dont l’écart pourrait atteindre des millions d’années, je ne pense pas que nous ayons la moindre chance de les apercevoir et d’espérer le moindre contact avec elles.
En ce qui me concerne, d’autres paramètres entre en jeux : l’écart psycho-spirituel entre eux et nous par exemple. Comme pour l’écart technologique il dépend des ethnies considérées.

Un document pour vos archives relatant une observation étrange faite en 1743.

Paris, 1958 pages 177 – 178
La scène se déroule dans la nuit du 31 août au 1er septembre 1743, durant le voyage qui mène le jeune CASANOVA vers Rome où il doit rencontrer un évêque influent.
“ De Terni j’allai à pied à Cirocoli, où je m’arrêtai le temps nécessaire pour examiner à mon aise l’ancien beau pont, et de là un voiturier me mena pour quatre paoli à Castel-Nuovo, d’où je me rendis à Rome. J’arrivai dans cette ville célèbre le premier de septembre à neuf heures du matin.
Je ne dois point taire ici une circonstance particulière qui plaira à plus d’un lecteur, quelque ridicule qu’elle soit au fond.
Une heure après Castel-Nuovo, l’air étant calme et le ciel serein, j’aperçus à ma droite et à dix pas de moi une flamme pyramidale de la hauteur d’une coudée et élevée de quatre à cinq pieds au-dessus du niveau du terrain. Cette apparition me frappa, car elle semblait m’accompagner. Voulant l’étudier, je cherchai à m’en approcher, mais, plus j’allais de son côté, et plus elle s’éloignait de moi. Elle s’arrêtait dès que je m’arrêtais et, lorsque la partie du chemin que je traversais se trouvait bordée d’arbres, je cessais de la voir, mais je la retrouvais dès que le bord du chemin redevenait libre. J’essayai aussi de retourner sur mes pas, mais chaque fois elle disparaissait et ne se remontrait que lorsque je me dirigeais de nouveau vers Rome. Ce singulier fanal ne me quitta que lorsque la lumière du jour eut chassé les ténèbres.
Quel champ merveilleux pour la superstition ignorante si, ayant eu des témoins de ce fait, il m’était arrivé de faire une brillante carrière à Rome ! L’histoire est remplie de bagatelles de cette importance et le monde est plein de gens qui en font encore grand cas, malgré les prétendues lumières que les sciences procurent à l’esprit humain. Je dois avouer en toute vérité qu’en dépit de mes connaissances en physique, la vue de ce petit météore n’a pas laissé de me donner des idées singulières. J’eus la prudence de n’en rien dire à personne “
On peut se demander ce qu’a vu CASANOVA cette nuit-là. Que pouvait bien être cette « flamme pyramidale » de 50 cm de hauteur qui se déplaçait à un peu plus d’un mètre du sol ?

UNE
NOUVELLE LIVRAISON D’ARCHIVES UFOLOGIQUES FAITE PAR LE SCEAU A LA BIBLIOTHÈQUE
DU PONTIFFROY A METZ POUR LA POSTÉRIORITÉ 
Le vendredi 21 juin 2013, au siège de l’association LE SCEAU (Sauvegarde et Conservation des Études et Archives Ufologiques ») c’était le début d’un week-end particulièrement studieux, consacré comme c’est l’habitude à un travail actif. Il s’agissait de préparer une nouvelle livraison de nombreux cartons de livres qui devaient partir le lendemain pour Metz. Tout est fait en respectant les réglés les plus draconiennes en matière d’archivage. Il convenait donc de vérifier une ultime fois que tous les ouvrages déposés étaient bien inventoriés dans la base de données des livres francophones et livres en langues étrangères, d’apposer les marques du Sceau (tampon) qui en cas de vol permettraient une identification des origines des documents, terminer la mise en carton etc…. Un travail actif, assuré ce jour là par Gilles Durand qui avait au préalable apporté les cartons nécessaires, par Didier Charnay de passage sur Paris, et Jacques Scornaux le président du Sceau.
Le lendemain 22 juin 2013 dès 8 h 30 précise, Raoul Robé et Lionel Robé sont venus prendre le précieux chargement, le 8éme dépôt du Sceau dans cette bibliothèque (Bibliothèque du Pontiffroy à Metz.) Tout avait été préparé pour le chargement par Jacques Scornaux et Thierry Rocher, qui le matin de bonheur, étaient déjà à l’œuvre. Mission accomplie, un SSM de Raoul Robé a averti le « gros « de la troupe restée sur place pour assurer une journée d’inventaire des archives confiées. (entre autre, les archives de SOS Ovni). Notons la présence ce jour-là, pour vérifier comment le SCEAU travaille, de Jean Pierre Rospars, ingénieur agronome et directeur de recherches à l’Inra. Jean Piere Rospart s’intéresse depuis bien longtemps aux phénomènes aérospatiaux non identifiés, mais curieux, il souhaitait se rendre compte de la façon dont le SCEAU travaillait. Une preuve de l’intérêt que les chercheurs les plus compétents portent au travail du Sceau.
Le SCEAU, ce ne sont pas des amateurs, il existe et travaille activement depuis 1990, l’équipe comporte des membres actifs de grande qualité, reconnus dans le monde ufologique pour leur sérieux et leurs compétences. C’est la garantie d’un travail bien fait, de l’accomplissement d’une œuvre bénéfique pour tous.
Rappelons
que les fonds récupérés par le SCEAU sont répartis dans les lieux de
dépôts en fonction de leur nature.
Après classement et inventaire, (dont le
SCEAU détient tous les éléments, documents à votre disposition) les archives
et périodiques sont déposées auprès des Archives de France (Archives
Nationales ou Départementales) tandis que les livres, statutairement
refusés par les Archives (livres et revues figurant au dépôt légal) sont
déposés dans des bibliothèques publiques. Tous ces dépôts font l'objet d'un
contrat visant à assurer leur pérennité et définissant les conditions de
consultation.
À ce jour, c’est plus de 40 fonds d’archives issus de particuliers, associations ou organismes divers qui sont sauvegardés dans des établissements spécialisés, disséminés aux quatre coins de la France et en Suisse. Une formidable collection comportant des dizaines de milliers de documents accessibles à tous et qui nécessiteraient si on ouvrait un établissement spécialisé (mais qui financerait ?) de nombreuses pièces ou de grands volumes. On sait ou et quoi est archivé, on peut facilement en prendre connaissance, c’est ouvert au public, de plus, tout n’est pas concentré en un seul endroit, mais réparti sur le territoire national en fonction de l’origine des donations.
SOS ARCHIVES EN PÉRIL – UN APPEL DU SCEAU
Si vous avez connaissance d’archives touchant à l’ufologie ou à des questions connexes qui sont menacées de disparition, nous vous remercions d’avance de prendre contact avec le SCEAU dans les meilleurs délais, afin d‘éviter que se reproduisent les cas dramatiques observés par le passé et encore récemment. Si vous disposez d’archives sur les phénomènes aérospatiaux non identifiés, y compris si elles ne sont pas conséquentes, prenez dès aujourd’hui vos dispositions afin que votre documentation ne soit pas détruite en établissant un contrat avec le SCEAU, que vous adapterez selon votre volonté. C’est la garantie que votre précieuse documentation ne soit pas détruite et qu’elle soit archivée, disponible pour tous en fonction de vos désirs pour la postérité ; Le SCEAU à déjà enregistrés de très nombreux contrats de cession, il dispose de plusieurs milliers de nom de personnes susceptibles de détenir des documents, ils ont été contactés, nombreux sont ceux ou celles qui ont pris leurs disposition. Faites de même, sans tarder….
Nous participons à la sauvegarde de nos archives, le site fait régulièrement l’objet de sauvegardes destinées à un futur archivage par le SCEAU.
On peut contacter le SCEAU qui détient tous les registres utiles, les informations que vous souhaitez obtenir sur le contenu des fonds, les bases de données de ce qui est répertorié au sceau au niveau des livres etc… en envoyant un mail à : sceauarchivovni@yahoo.fr ou encore par courrier en écrivant à : SCEAU / Archives OVNI BP 19, 91805 Brunoy Cedex.
Mais surtout, si vous habitez Paris, la région Parisienne ou que vous pouvez venir de temps à autre sur Paris, participez activement au travail du SCEAU en donnant de votre temps, de vos compétences pour inventorier les fonds qui arrivent en nombre au siège du SCEAU. Des journées sont organisées pour faire ce travail, généralement le samedi, il faut beaucoup de main d’œuvre, il y a des tonnes d’archives à mettre en ordre, à référencer, avant qu’elles soient dirigées vers les bibliothèques ou les archives nationales ou départementales qui ont déjà un contrat avec le SCEAU.
Les buts de l’association :
· Sauvegarder le patrimoine ufologique privé.
· Archiver cette documentation d'origine publique ou privée.
· Gérer ce fonds documentaire, ouvert à tous, en le protégeant et en l'organisant de façon structurée en liaison directe avec les Archives Nationales et Départementales.
· Instaurer une démarche préventive facilitant une sauvegarde systématique de ce patrimoine culturel.
13EME RÉUNIONS DES CAFÉS UFOLOGIQUES DE CORRIENTES EN ARGENTINE – MERCREDI 3 JUILLET 2013
SE LLEVÓ A CABO LA DÉCIMA TERCERA REUNIÓN DEL CAFÉ UFOLÓGICO DE CORRIENTES

Franco
Antonio Aguirre, Andres Salvador, José Andrés Gómez y Carlos Coria (der. de
pie) |
En la tarde del miércoles 3 de julio se realizó en la librería Capitulo 1 [Mendoza 750 -Corrientes], la 13º Reunión del Café Ufológico de Corrientes.
La
misma comenzó a las 19 hs. con la presencia de Franco Antonio Aguirre, Fernando
Martín Benítez, Carlos Coria, Marcelo Juan Gainza, José Andrés Gómez, Pablo
Omastott, Margarita Rotela, Juan Sebastián Verón y quien esto suscribe.
En una reunión no apta para quienes padecen de tetradecafobia, los temas abordados fueron muy variados. Así se comentó como conseguir libros y otras publicaciones sobre el fenómeno, recomendándose la consulta de sitios de internet como Mercado Libre o el sitio de Ediciones Halbrane.
Se comentó sobre el llamado Experimento Filadelfia, nombre que recibió un supuesto experimento secreto llevado a cabo por la marina estadounidense en los astilleros navales de Filadelfia, en el estado de Pensilvania, durante o antes del 28 de octubre de 1943 y en el que un destructor de escolta, el USS Eldridge (DE-173), se habría vuelto totalmente invisible a la vista, al mismo tiempo, en la base naval estadounidense en Norfolk, Virginia, a 600 km de distancia, un tripulante en sus costas declaró haber visto al navío durante 15 minutos, que nuevamente desaparece para volver a aparecer en Filadelfia.
La posible presencia de tecnología humana detrás de muchos de los casos de observación de OVNIS llevo a recordar los avistamientos masivos de objetos triangulares en el cielo de Bélgica entre 1989 y 1990. Esta tipo de artefacto se conoce también por el nombre de "Big Black Deltas" (BBDs) o "Flying Triangles". La serie de TV The X-Files presenta en el episodio titulado "Deep Throat" una nave de forma triangular que sería conforme a la opinión de Fox Mulder un vehículo experimental de la fuerza aérea estadounidense que usa tecnología extraterrestre.
El posible origen humano se planteó también en relación a los Círculos en las cosechas (en inglés Crop circle) también llamados agrogramas, fenómeno que comienza a ser conocido partir de del año 1976, cuando aparecieron los primeros de ellos en Winchester (Reino Unido) si bien existen registros anteriores.
Se explico que ALF nombre de la popular serie de televisión estadounidense, emitida por la NBC entre 1986 y 1990 es un acrónimo en inglés para Alien Life Form con el que se designaba a un amigable extraterrestre llamado Gordon Shumway proveniente del planeta Melmac.
También
se destacó la La importancia de los conceptos elaborados por Thomas Kuhn que
distingue en la ciencia dos momentos que denomina [I] ciencia normal, y
[2] ciencia extraordinaria en relación a los cuales propone los conceptos
deparadigma, crisis en el paradigma dominante y revolución
científica, y donde el concepto de ciencia normal está ligado al de:
Crisis en el paradigma dominante que se presenta cuando la profesión no
puede pasar por alto las anomalías que subvierten la tradición existente de
prácticas científicas, llamándose la atención sobre el interés de pensar en el
fenómeno OVNI en términos de una Anomalía.
En este sentido se sostuvo que frente a sus propios fenómenos anómalos, la parapsicología fue reconocida en 1969 como una verdadera ciencia por la Sociedad de mayor autoridad en el mundo en materia de ciencia, la AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science) por haber dado una respuesta conforme al método científico y en esto, el estudio de los OVNIS puede encontrar una pauta a seguir.
Se recordó a Hombre mirando al sudeste, película argentina escrita y dirigida por Eliseo Subiela en 1986 y su controvertida influencia en la coproducción estadounidense alemana K-PAXdel 2001 dirigida por Iain Softley.
El comentario hecho sobre la observación de Humanoides en Paso Lovera (Corrientes) en enero 2002 dio lugar a que se recuerde la explicación propuesta por Scott Corrales en su artículo Holograms and High Strangeness publicado en la revista Fate Magazine de marzo de 2003.
|
|
Se recomendó por la calidad de los documentos presentados, ver en la serie Contacto extraterrestre que es emitida por The History Channel, el abordaje del Caso Polanco o Caso Bariloche ocurrido el 31 de julio de 1995.
Al final de la reunión se obsequió a Franco Antonio Aguirre con un ejemplar del libro del Dr. Roberto Banchs, Guía Biográfica de la Ufología Argentina - Los primeros veinticinco años (1947-1972), ed. Cefai, Buenos Aires, 2000, 128 pp. que fuera donado oportunamente por su autor para ser distribuido por el Café.
Posteriormente
tantoFranco Antonio Aguirre, como Juan Sebastián Verón adhirieron a la petición
dirigida a la Sra. Presidenta de la Nación que impulsa la Comisión
de Estudios Fenómeno OVNI República Argentina - CEFORA
a fin de que se proceda a la desclasificación de los expedientes OVNI de los
organismos oficiales.
La 14º Reunión del Café Ufológico de Corrientes quedó fijada para el próximo 7 de agosto en el mismo lugar y hora. (Fotografías: Pablo Omastott).

UN DOSSIER QUI AVANCE : LE PROJET LICORNE
Le projet Licorne 2 est basé sur la création d’un outil scientifique innovant, à la disposition de tous, qui permettra une avancée dans l’étude du phénomène.
Ce projet, c’est tout simplement la réalisation d’une base de donnée, la plus universelle possible, élaborée en
corrélation avec des groupes de recherche en France et des échanges d’informations avec des structures
d’études du phénomène situées aux Etats-Unis ou dans d’autres pays. Elle devra contenir un grand nombre
d’informations, mettre à disposition un maximum de cas détaillés ou enquêtés.
Il existe un certain nombre de projets relatifs à des bases de données, mais soit ils n’ont pas abouti, soit ils
stagnent et ne répondent pas aux exigences actuelles.
Licorne 2 est la poursuite d’un projet élaboré en 1989 par le groupe Magonia, sous le nom de « Licorne »
bien étudié, très approfondi ; mais qui n’a pu aboutir à l’époque faute de moyens financiers. Ce projet va donc
être à nouveau étudié et mis aux normes actuelles et devra répondre aux critères exigés par les groupes et
chercheurs associés. Nous sommes en face d’un phénomène qui présente d’extrêmes disparités face aux
diverses situations et il est indispensable de mettre en place un système souple, évolutif et facile d’emploi
capable de prendre en considération cette diversité sans l’altérer. Outre un travail de recherche, qui associe
déjà plusieurs chercheurs et groupes d’études, il y aura dans un second temps un travail important pour
rentrer les données.

quelques mois toute la matière grise utile à la mise en place de « Licorne 2 ». Informations sur la page

13EME RÉUNIONS DES CAFÉS UFOLOGIQUES DE CORRIENTES EN ARGENTINE – MERCREDI 3 JUILLET 2013
SE LLEVÓ A CABO LA DÉCIMA TERCERA REUNIÓN DEL CAFÉ UFOLÓGICO DE CORRIENTES

En la tarde del miércoles 3 de julio se realizó en la librería Capitulo 1 [Mendoza 750 -Corrientes], la 13º Reunión del Café Ufológico de Corrientes.
La
misma comenzó a las 19 hs. con la presencia de Franco Antonio Aguirre, Fernando
Martín Benítez, Carlos Coria, Marcelo Juan Gainza, José Andrés Gómez, Pablo
Omastott, Margarita Rotela, Juan Sebastián Verón y quien esto suscribe.
En una reunión no apta para quienes padecen de tetradecafobia, los temas abordados fueron muy variados. Así se comentó como conseguir libros y otras publicaciones sobre el fenómeno, recomendándose la consulta de sitios de internet como Mercado Libre o el sitio de Ediciones Halbrane.
Se comentó sobre el llamado Experimento Filadelfia, nombre que recibió un supuesto experimento secreto llevado a cabo por la marina estadounidense en los astilleros navales de Filadelfia, en el estado de Pensilvania, durante o antes del 28 de octubre de 1943 y en el que un destructor de escolta, el USS Eldridge (DE-173), se habría vuelto totalmente invisible a la vista, al mismo tiempo, en la base naval estadounidense en Norfolk, Virginia, a 600 km de distancia, un tripulante en sus costas declaró haber visto al navío durante 15 minutos, que nuevamente desaparece para volver a aparecer en Filadelfia.
La posible presencia de tecnología humana detrás de muchos de los casos de observación de OVNIS llevo a recordar los avistamientos masivos de objetos triangulares en el cielo de Bélgica entre 1989 y 1990. Esta tipo de artefacto se conoce también por el nombre de "Big Black Deltas" (BBDs) o "Flying Triangles". La serie de TV The X-Files presenta en el episodio titulado "Deep Throat" una nave de forma triangular que sería conforme a la opinión de Fox Mulder un vehículo experimental de la fuerza aérea estadounidense que usa tecnología extraterrestre.
El posible origen humano se planteó también en relación a los Círculos en las cosechas (en inglés Crop circle) también llamados agrogramas, fenómeno que comienza a ser conocido partir de del año 1976, cuando aparecieron los primeros de ellos en Winchester (Reino Unido) si bien existen registros anteriores.
Se explico que ALF nombre de la popular serie de televisión estadounidense, emitida por la NBC entre 1986 y 1990 es un acrónimo en inglés para Alien Life Form con el que se designaba a un amigable extraterrestre llamado Gordon Shumway proveniente del planeta Melmac.
También
se destacó la La importancia de los conceptos elaborados por Thomas Kuhn que
distingue en la ciencia dos momentos que denomina [I] ciencia normal, y
[2] ciencia extraordinaria en relación a los cuales propone los conceptos
deparadigma, crisis en el paradigma dominante y revolución
científica, y donde el concepto de ciencia normal está ligado al de:
Crisis en el paradigma dominante que se presenta cuando la profesión no
puede pasar por alto las anomalías que subvierten la tradición existente de
prácticas científicas, llamándose la atención sobre el interés de pensar en el
fenómeno OVNI en términos de una Anomalía.
En este sentido se sostuvo que frente a sus propios fenómenos anómalos, la parapsicología fue reconocida en 1969 como una verdadera ciencia por la Sociedad de mayor autoridad en el mundo en materia de ciencia, la AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science) por haber dado una respuesta conforme al método científico y en esto, el estudio de los OVNIS puede encontrar una pauta a seguir.
Se recordó a Hombre mirando al sudeste, película argentina escrita y dirigida por Eliseo Subiela en 1986 y su controvertida influencia en la coproducción estadounidense alemana K-PAXdel 2001 dirigida por Iain Softley.
El comentario hecho sobre la observación de Humanoides en Paso Lovera (Corrientes) en enero 2002 dio lugar a que se recuerde la explicación propuesta por Scott Corrales en su artículo Holograms and High Strangeness publicado en la revista Fate Magazine de marzo de 2003.

Se recomendó por la calidad de los documentos presentados, ver en la serie Contacto extraterrestre que es emitida por The History Channel, el abordaje del Caso Polanco o Caso Bariloche ocurrido el 31 de julio de 1995.
Al final de la reunión se obsequió a Franco Antonio Aguirre con un ejemplar del libro del Dr. Roberto Banchs, Guía Biográfica de la Ufología Argentina - Los primeros veinticinco años (1947-1972), ed. Cefai, Buenos Aires, 2000, 128 pp. que fuera donado oportunamente por su autor para ser distribuido por el Café.
Posteriormente
tantoFranco Antonio Aguirre, como Juan Sebastián Verón adhirieron a la petición
dirigida a la Sra. Presidenta de la Nación que impulsa la Comisión
de Estudios Fenómeno OVNI República Argentina - CEFORA
a fin de que se proceda a la desclasificación de los expedientes OVNI de los
organismos oficiales.
La 14º Reunión del Café Ufológico de Corrientes quedó fijada para el próximo 7 de agosto en el mismo lugar y hora. (Fotografías: Pablo Omastott).

APASIONANTE CAFE UFOLOGICO RIO54 DE JULIO - MUFON FRANCE
Information, especially for our friends in South America...
El jueves 1 de agosto a las
18:30 nos reuniremos nuevamente en el Café Ufológico
RIO54.

RIO54, el primer Café Ufológico argentino, demuestra en cada reunión que el tema ovni moviliza el interés de hombres y mujeres de todas las edades y formación, dispuestos a encontrarse una vez por mes en el Café de la Subasta para conversar amigablemente sobre el tema de sus amores. En el encuentro del pasado 4 de julio hubo dos nuevos participantes que fueron bienvenidos a la larga mesa, Roberto Marino y Javier Bertolotto.
Roberto Marino, originario de Gaiman, Pcia. de Chubut, contó diversas experiencias personales vividas en lugares emblemáticos de la ufología, como la estancia La Aurora en Salto (Uruguay) donde observó extrañas luces y también observó un cigarro sobre los cerros "Las Gemelas" en Capilla del Monte (Pcia. de Córdoba, Argentina). También sorprendió su relato sobre una emanación de energía luminosa que se veía salir del suelo en San Marcos Sierras, pueblo muy cercano a Capilla del Monte. La anécdota derivó en la posibilidad de que existan bases o ciudades subterráneas, ante lo cual Sebastián Haraya comentó que eran de interés los libros publicados por Robert Teske (en inglés) acerca la llamada "Base Dulce" en Estados Unidos, a la que ese autor describe como una gran instalación subterránea excavada en distintos niveles de profundidad, con experimentos más secretos a medida que se desciende, lo que incluiría desde manipulaciones genéticas hasta coacción hacia alienígenas. Sebastián reflexionó que ese modelo de estructura se parece a los inframundos sucesivos de la mitología maya según su libro sagrado, el Popul Vuh. Explicó que Teske abunda en datos que relacionan la milicia, la NSA y los extraterrestres. También la Dra. Karla Turner en su diario sobre visitantes de dormitorio se refiere a las denominadas "Blacks Ops" (Operaciones Negras).
Luis Baynham habló entonces de los ovnis vistos en proximidad de volcanes, en particular el recientemente conocido caso del Popocatepetl en México, sobre lo cual circularon en la mesa diversas interpretaciones, y Horacio Pistoni amplió diciendo que la fumarola dejó de emitir gases luego de ese episodio.
Alejandro De la Barra recordó el avistaje del comandante de Aerolíneas Argentinas Jorge Polanco, poco antes de aterrizar en Bariloche con el Boeing 727 que pilotaba. Morales aportó algunos detalles sobre ese caso de 1995, por ejemplo que la Fuerza Aérea difundió la investigación que hizo, investigación que llegaba hasta un punto y se truncaba alegando que la Aeronáutica no tenía una comisión específica para estudiar los ovnis.
El Ing. De La Barra expresó su deseo de que una persona como el comandante Polanco pudiera venir un día a RIO54, para poder hablar de casos como ese, con diversos testigos, observación desde dos aviones y torre de control.
La charla se animó con diferentes puntos de vista, aportados entre otros por Mario Lupo, Javier Stagnaro, Sebastián Haraya y Mario Coen, acerca de cuales son los datos duros para decir que algo es un "ovni", un "plato volador", ¿que características debe básicamente tener? -preguntó Mario. De la Barra hizo hincapié en los parámetros físicos, por ejemplo que un tal objeto debería tener un comportamiento absurdo como ser aceleraciones o velocidades extremas. Morales añadió que para que el fenómeno sea absurdo, no es indispensable pensar en violaciones a las leyes de la física, porque absurda era la piedra voladora que vio Guillermo Girotti junto a su hermano, según lo relató en nuestra reunión anterior. Era absurdo ver una roca por el cielo, pero no necesariamente una violación de las leyes físicas. Sebastián fue por más, al decir que toda observación sucede en un esquema de creencias, como decía John Keel, y se interrogó si una aparición mariana podría considerarse como un evento ovni.
En la misma línea, Coen afirmó que el fenómeno importa porque el hombre existe, y que las interpretaciones dependen de las personas. Mencionó por caso la oleada de 1897 en Estados Unidos cuando se vieron objetos voladores parecidos a dirigibles o aeroplanos, antes de que estuvieran inventados. Javier Stagnaro indicó que era una fecha muy cercana a la invención de estos aparatos y que bien pudo haber prototipos que estuvieran probándose en 1897 aunque no aparecieran en la prensa. Luis Baynham evocó uno de estos casos de 1897, citado por el autor Anglada Font: Un grupo familiar que participaba de una fiesta nocturna se sorprendió al oir gritos de auxilio que provenían del cielo, sin poder establecer de donde. Los gritos se alejaron hasta hacerse inaudibles.
Rubén Romano, inspirado en el pensamiento de Jacques Vallée, siguió los argumentos de Coen al generalizar que se tiende a ver al fenómeno como algo ajeno, externo al ser humano, y que esa "ajenidad" -como tal- ha estado presente en las creencias humanas desde los albores de la cultura. Son aspectos que se internan en el campo de lo subjetivo. Mencionó como ejemplo que en casos de abducción se ha relatado el ascenso al ovni por una escalerilla convencional, lo cual siembra una contradicción, eso no parece compatible con una supertecnología.
Casi sin darnos cuenta, la charla nos había internado en temas conceptuales y hasta filosóficos, en el sentido de cuestionarnos, de hacernos preguntas, de profundizar, mucho más allá de las noticias que se publican en internet y en la prensa. Eso causó cierta inquietud, porque claro, cuestionarse, preguntarse, hace revisar lo que se piensa y eso genera ansiedad, es la angustia previa a la obtención de un conocimiento.
Morales refirió que hay un estereotipo mental del "plato volador" que no deja verlo como un fenómeno más amplio: "Yo mismo, si viera un ovni y éste no tuviera forma de plato, me sentiría defraudado" -bromeó. Y también planteó la posibilidad de ser visitados por una civilización que de ninguna manera desee tomar contacto con los terrestres. Aimé Michel, pionero de la investigación ovni en Francia, planteaba que si el abismo cultural entre los visitantes y nosotros fuera tan amplio como el que existe entre el entomólogo y la hormiga, no habría comunicación posible. La hormiga siente que le pasan cosas pero no entiende, cuando la ponen en un microscopio por ejemplo, y el científico que la observa no tiene en sus planes comunicarse con ella.
Juan Castelli, nacido en Rawson, originario de la Patagonia Argentina al igual que Roberto Marino, trajo a la mesa el caso citado en otras reuniones de los submarinos fantasmas vistos en el Atlántico Sur.Halló información en la excelente web de Historia y Arqueología Marítima de la Fundación Histarmar sobre la Operación Golfo Nuevo, cuando buques y aviones de la Armada atacaron a un sumergible sin identificar el 21 de mayo de 1958.
Javier Stagnaro añadió que entre los participantes del ataque había un joven oficial de Infantería de Marina que era Daniel Perissé, el que luego en 1965 sería mundialmente conocido por las observaciones de ovnis en la Antártida. Perissé le había contado a Javier algunas rarezas sucedidas en esa Operación Golfo Nuevo del año '58. Una de ellas es que luego de toda esa estresante jornada rastreando al sumergible por sonar y lanzándole cargas de profundidad, llegó la noche y con ella se inició una intensa vigilia desde los barcos. Entonces se vio, en la lejanía, media docena de esferas luminosas que emergían del mar. Y al día siguiente los marinos recorrieron la playa y allí encontraron dos novedades: huellas de patas de rana (o similares) que provenían del mar y una gran marca en forma de cuña hundida en la arena, como si un objeto pesado hubiera estado apoyado en ese lugar, sin que se observen en las cercanías huellas de ruedas o de otro tipo, lo que significaría que, cualquier cosa que haya sido, debió irse por el aire.
Stagnaro remarcó que ningún país reclamó la propiedad de ese submarino furtivo y que hasta podría pensarse en un U-boot alemán que permaneció oculto luego de la segunda guerra.
Daniel Postizzi sumó otra anécdota naval, que le fue contada por un radarista ya retirado. En un viaje de la Fragata Libertad, el buque insignia de la Armada Argentina, se realizaba una práctica de navegación nocturna a oscuras, con los sistemas eléctricos desconectados, lo que es una práctica habitual para el entrenamiento de la tripulación en situaciones extremas. Solamente el radar permanecía encendido por seguridad, y su pantalla era la única fuente de luz en la sala. De pronto el radarista escuchó un fuerte griterío en cubierta. Había aparecido sobre el buque una bola de luz roja que se movía rápido y azarosamente, "como un buscapiés". La luz entró a la fragata atravesando el casco, llegó a la sala de máquinas, de ahí a la de radar, salió por la cubierta hacia proa y se perdió en el horizonte.
Por su parte, Andrea Pérez Simondini expresó su alegría de haber localizado y entrevistado a Roberto Wilkinson, piloto de la Armada que el 22 de mayo de 1962 observó desde su avión varios objetos no identificados cerca de la Base Aeronaval Comandante Espora, Prov. de Buenos Aires.
Rubén Morales finalmente expresó su satisfacción porque además de la Red Argentina de Cafés Ufológicos que está plena de actividades en cada ciudad, se ha producido la segunda reunión del Café Ovni de Valencia, España, coordinado por Luis Pisu, a quien deseamos el mayor de los éxitos y esperamos que surjan más cafés ufológicos en el país y en el mundo.
Así transcurrió la reunión del Café Ufológico de Julio, entre informaciones, investigaciones, anécdotas y reflexiones. Los variados temas fueron tratados con profundidad e interés, lo que demuestra la importancia, la necesidad, de abrir espacios de diálogo como los cafés ufológicos para que afloren contenidos tan enriquecedores para el conocimiento y gratificantes para el espíritu.
Como siempre se sortearon gratuitamente entre los presentes revistas aportadas por Javier Stagnaro y Verónica Suárez, libros donados (y, por estar presente, en esta ocasión también rubricados) por Roberto Banchs, un DVD con buena bibliografía ufológica en formato digital que aportó Sebastián Haraya y un curso en DVD donado por Mario Lupo. Gracias a todos los que colaboran con aportes para el esperado momento del sorteo.
La próxima reunión del Café Ufológico RIO54 será el jueves 1 de agosto, como siempre a las 18,30 en el Café de la Subasta, Río de Janeiro 54, Buenos Aires.
