Mysterious explosion sends UFOs to earth in central Vietnam
Mysterious explosion sends UFOs to earth in central Vietnam
The Ministry of Defense has ordered an investigation into an explosion in the sky which sent metal pieces raining down on the central province of Binh Thuan last week.
Speaking to Thanh Nien on Monday, Col. Pham Van Long, political commissar of the Binh Thuan Military Headquarters, said the ministrys Air Defense Force is studying the metal pieces to learn more about the explosion that happened in Thuan Quy Commune, Ham Thuan Nam District.
It happened around noon on Friday with no recorded injuries, but several local people had their house roofs damaged by the flying objects.
Ham Thuan Nam Districts military headquarters is now storing the metal objects, Long said.
Le Cuong, head of Thuan Quy Communes police division, showed Thanh Nien reporters the storage, saying that local people and agencies have collected more than 50 pieces so far.
As Thanh Nien observed, the pieces are all grey and some are burned.
They have different measures and shapes as thick as 2-3 millimeters, as long as 3 meters, as wide as 70 centimeters, and as heavy as 17 kilograms.
Among them is an object that looks like part of a tube with many sections of electrical wires also burned.
Nguyen Huu Tuong, principal of Thuan Quy Elementary School, said some objects that hit a garden next to the school were very sharp and heavy.
But, very luckily, they did not fall onto the schools playground where some students were preparing for their afternoon classes, he said.
Meanwhile, Pham Thi Lan, a local resident, said her family was having lunch when their house was shaken by the explosion, and then two metal pieces hit and damaged the roof.
It was lucky that no one was injured, she said.
It was frightening, but our commune was also very lucky, Cuong spoke of the incident.
In interviews with Thanh Nien, many residents believed that it was an aircraft explosion.
However, the Ham Thuan Nam military headquarters said that no aircraft was present in the Binh Thuan sky areas when the incident happened.
Orbital debris?
An expert on space debris with the Ministry of Science and Technology told Thanh Nien on condition of anonymity that the pieces must be man-made and their sizes suggested that they came from an object which could be hundreds of times bigger.
He also said there is the possibly that they fell from space, most likely from a rocket booster.
Used as an assistant to a liftoff, the booster is detached from the rocket and falls away when it is out of fuel, he explained.
Another possibility is that the pieces came from defunct satellites, according to the expert.
When out of fuel, a satellite falls back to the earth, and although it burns up while flying through the earths atmosphere, there is a certain amount of its broken pieces that fall to the land or the sea, he said.
The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) estimated that there are more than 150 million defunct man-made objects in orbit about the earth, or orbital debris, including 500,000 particles between 1-10 centimeters in diameter and over 21,000 larger than 10 centimeters.
Only countries with developed space technology like the US, Japan and Russia are able to track the debris and issue warnings when they are flying towards the earth, the expert said.
However, he also said that although space junk falls to earth every day, so far no serious accident has been recorded.

Three Amazing UFO Sightings in Scotland, England and Colorado Forest - July 31, 2013
Three Amazing UFO Sightings in Scotland, England and Colorado Forest - July 31, 2013

There was once a time when UFO sightings turned out to be easily identified objects like weather balloons, lenticular clouds, satellites, meteorites, planets, conventional aircraft, weather anomalies and other normal things.
Now, here come the drones, the newest addition to the growing list of misidentified things in the sky that many people claim are ships from another part of our galaxy. (Watch the HuffPost Live video above)
Here's the big problem with all of this: Not only do these unmanned objects look like UFOs or flying saucers, a lot of them are deliberately and inexpensively created to look like UFOs or flying saucers.
It's a simple equation: More drones in the sky = more UFO reports.
From a "flying saucer" drone created by a Canadian science center to deliberately fool people at a baseball game (see image above), to a news agency's hovering, camera-mounted craft observing a large crowd of protestors in Moscow, drone technology is used for military purposes as well as consumerism trickery.
----------------------------
CORRECTION: Upon looking back at the HuffPost Live video interview at the top of the story, this reporter discovered that he gave an inaccurate statement about UFOs. He said, "Literally, 4 to 5 percent of every UFO sighting or report can be easily explained if you give it a chance to be explained." What he meant to say (and thought he said) was that 4 to 5 percent of UFO reports can't be easily explained. Those are figures that have stood the test of time ever since the U.S. Air Force ended Project Blue Book -- its more than 20-year study of UFOs -- in 1969. Your reporter regrets the slight error.

Billions of Earth-like planets in Milky Way: study
Billions of Earth-like planets in Milky Way: study
The Associated Press
Astronomers using NASA data have calculated for the first time that in our galaxy alone, there are at least 8.8 billion stars with Earth-size planets in the habitable temperature zone. NASA/Associated Press
(Note:CBC does not endorse and is not responsible for the content of external links.)
Space is vast, but it may not be so lonely after all: A study finds the Milky Way is teeming with billions of planets that are about the size of Earth, orbit stars just like our sun, and exist in the Goldilocks zone not too hot and not too cold for life.
Astronomers using NASA data have calculated for the first time that in our galaxy alone, there are at least 8.8 billion stars with Earth-size planets in the habitable temperature zone.
The study was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
For perspective, that's more Earth-like planets than there are people on Earth.
As for what it says about the odds that there is life somewhere out there, it means "just in our Milky Way galaxy alone, that's 8.8 billion throws of the biological dice," said study co-author Geoff Marcy, a longtime planet hunter from the University of California at Berkeley.
The next step, scientists say, is to look for atmospheres on these planets with powerful space telescopes that have yet to be launched. That would yield further clues to whether any of these planets do, in fact, harbor life.
'Deafening silence'
The findings also raise a blaring question, Marcy said: If we aren't alone, why is "there a deafening silence in our Milky Way galaxy from advanced civilizations?"
In the Milky Way, about 1 in 5 stars that are like our sun in size, colour and age have planets that are roughly Earth's size and are in the habitable zone where life-crucial water can be liquid, according to intricate calculations based on four years of observations from NASA's now-crippled Kepler telescope.
If people on Earth could only travel in deep space, "you'd probably see a lot of traffic jams," Bill Borucki, NASA's chief Kepler scientist, joked Monday.
The Kepler telescope peered at 42,000 stars, examining just a tiny slice of our galaxy to see how many planets like Earth are out there. Scientists then extrapolated that figure to the rest of the galaxy, which has hundreds of billions of stars.
For the first time, scientists calculated not estimated what per cent of stars that are just like our sun have planets similar to Earth: 22 per cent, with a margin of error of plus or minus 8 percentage points.
Kepler scientist Natalie Batalha said there is still more data to pore over before this can be considered a final figure.
There are about 200 billion stars in our galaxy, with 40 billion of them like our sun, Marcy said. One of his co-authors put the number of sun-like stars closer to 50 billion, meaning there would be at least 11 billion planets like ours.
Based on the 1-in-5 estimate, the closest Earth-size planet that is in the habitable temperature zone and circles a sun-like star is probably within 112 trillion kilometres of Earth, Marcy said.
And the 8.8 billion Earth-size planets figure is only a start. That's because scientists were looking only at sun-like stars, which are not the most common stars.
An earlier study found that 15 per cent of the more common red dwarf stars have Earth-size planets that are close-in enough to be in the not-too-hot, not-too-cold Goldilocks Zone.
Put those together and that's probably 40 billion right-size, right-place planets, Marcy said.
And that's just our galaxy. There are billions of other galaxies.
Scientists at a Kepler science conference Monday said they have found 833 new candidate planets with the space telescope, bringing the total of planets they've spotted to 3,538, but most aren't candidates for life.
Kepler has identified only 10 planets that are about Earth's size circling sun-like stars and are in the habitable zone, including one called Kepler 69-c.
Because there are probably hundreds of planets missed for every one found, the study did intricate extrapolations to come up with the 22 percent figure a calculation that outside scientists say is fair.
"Everything they've done looks legitimate," said MIT astronomer Sara Seager.

Exoplanètes : il y en aurait des milliards habitables

Exoplanètes : il y en aurait des milliards habitables
Les astronomes se basent sur l'analyse de données des 3 premières années d'observation du télescope Kepler, aujourd'hui hors service. Des milliards de planètes de taille terrestre en orbite autour d'étoiles similaires au Soleil dans notre galaxie seraient potentiellement habitables, ont estimé lundi des astronomes. (c) Afp
EAU. Une étoile sur cinq similaire au soleil dans la Voie lactée, qui en compte quelque 55 milliards, a en orbite une planète dont la taille est similaire ou proche de celle de la Terre et qui se trouve en zone habitable. C'est-à-dire ni trop éloignée ni trop rapprochée de son astre, ce qui permet des températures sous lesquelles l'eau liquide peut exister. Autrement dit, un environnement potentiellement habitable.
L'héritage de Kepler
Les scientifiques se sont basés sur les données des trois premières années d'observation du télescope Kepler, aujourd'hui hors service. "Cela signifie que, parmi les milliers d'étoiles que l'on voit dans le ciel la nuit, la plus proche, similaire au Soleil avec une planète en orbite autour d'elle d'une masse comparable à la Terre dans la zone habitable, se trouve probablement à seulement douze années lumière et est visible à lil nu", a relevé l'astronome Erick Petigura, de l'université de Californie à Berkeley, principal auteur de ces travaux.
FREQUENTES. L'étude est publiée dans les Comptes-rendus de l'Académie américaine des sciences (PNAS) et a été présentée à la conférence sur Kepler qui se tient cette semaine à Moffett Field (Californie, ouest). "Ces résultats font penser que des planètes comme la Terre sont relativement fréquentes dans toute la Voie lactée", relève Andrew Howard, un astronome à l'Institut d'Astronomie de Hawaii, co-auteur.
"Ces résultats font penser que des planètes comme la Terre sont relativement fréquentes dans toute la Voie lactée" - l'astronome Andrew Howard.
ROCHEUSES. Sur la base des trois premières années de données collectées par Kepler, les astronomes ont détecté 3.538 exoplanètes potentielles, dont 833 confirmées. Parmi ces dernières, 647 sont de taille terrestre, dont seulement 104 se trouvent dans une zone leur permettent d'être habitables, et dix paraissent être rocheuses comme la Terre, a indiqué Jason Rowe, de l'Institut SETI, lors d'une conférence de presse.
Chercher les signes de vie
Le fait qu'une planète de masse comparable à la Terre, et qui se trouve dans une zone où elle pourrait être habitable, ne la rend pas forcément propice à la vie, insistent ces scientifiques. "Certaines pourraient par exemple avoir des atmosphères trop épaisses, rendant les températures à sa surface trop chaudes pour des organismes vivants", a noté Geoffrey Marcy. "En fait nous ignorons encore l'étendue des types de planètes et de leurs environnements où la vie pourrait exister", a-t-il dit.
TEMPERATURE. La semaine dernière, ces astronomes avaient annoncé la découverte de l'exoplanète Kepler-78b qui, malgré une taille et une composition similaires à la Terre, est inhabitable en raison de ses températures, qui s'élèvent de 1.500 à 3.000 degrés Celsius. "L'abondance de planètes comme la Terre, en orbite autour d'étoiles relativement proches, simplifiera les futures missions de la Nasa pour les étudier en détail", a relevé Andrew Howard.
ATMOSPHERE. Selon Natalie Batalha, une scientifique de la mission Kepler, "d'ici une cinquantaine d'années nous serons capables d'observer les caractéristiques de l'atmosphère de ces exoplanètes et ensuite l'objectif sera de prendre des images de bonne qualité de leur surface, voir la topographie et chercher les signes de la vie".
Het heeft nu niet direct met ufo's te maken (of juist toch wel) maar deze prachtige video is echt de moeite om te bekijken en je af te vragen of "zij" ook zo op zoek zijn naar bewoonbare planeten. Het zou dit vinden van buitenaards leven aanzienlijk versnellen.

UFO sighting over Cleveland, Ohio on 1st November 2013
UFO sighting over Cleveland, Ohio on 1st November 2013 New amazing video footage of a strange UFO recorded in the sky above Cleveland, Ohio on 1st November 2013.
I saw a few orbs liks this in Tenerife (Canary Islands) in the winter, they're not moving for a wile like they were watching us, and then they suddenly disappear, they came from the vulcano Teide, I wonder if I see them next winter again
Ik zag deze al eens in Tenerife in de winter, ze kwamen van richting de Teidevulkaan, ze hingen stil alsof ze ons aan het gadeslaan waren en dan verdwenen ze plots, eens benieuwd of ik ze volgende winter weer zie
Out Of This World News, Mr. Shostak! So Is The Likelihood Of Flying Saucers From Elsewhere Being Part Of This Astronomical Math Still Infinitesimally Small?
A press conference today laid bare some new results from NASA's Kepler space telescope. They're astounding.
It turns out that about 22 percent of all Sun-like stars boast a planet that's at the right orbital distance to sustain liquid water on its surface. In other words, one in five of such stars has an Earth-size orbiting world in the so-called "habitable zone."
This result, announced by astronomers Erik Petigura, Andrew Howard, and Geoff Marcy (from the universities of California and Hawaii), significantly plumps the odds that there's life elsewhere in the cosmos. That's because the prevalence of the messy, organic chemistry we gentrify with the term "life" is proportional to the amount of real estate available for it to arise and flourish. The argument is straightforward and unassailable, unless you're convinced that biology is zapped into existence with lightning bolts hurled by the gods.
Before the Kepler mission, no one knew what fraction of stars would have hospitable planets. So this work is both important and encouraging. Why encouraging? Well, consider the numbers that tumble from this result -- the quantitative consequences.
We'll do the simple math for you. However, and just in case arithmetic makes your eyeballs glaze over like a holiday ham, we'll make sure the bottom line of this article gives you the bottom line. It's a result you'll find useful for striking up conversation with people who are overly impressed with their own importance.
Here are the stats. As noted, 22 percent of all Sun-like stars will sport a habitable, Earth-size world. Since stars similar to Sol (so-called G and K stars) make up 20 percent of the roughly 200 billion stars of the Milky Way, they account for 9 billion planets able to support life. That's the contribution to the planetary population from cousins of the Sun.
However, three-quarters of the Galaxy's stellar complement is comprised of so-called "red dwarfs" -- dim, puny stars rather smaller and much dimmer than the Sun. A recent analysis of Kepler data by Harvard astronomers Courtney Dressing and David Charbonneau implies that 16 percent of red dwarfs sport a planet in the habitable zone. Do the multiplication, and you can throw another 24 billion candidates for life into the galactic barrel.
We've accounted for 95 percent of all the stars in the Milky Way. The other 5 percent are big, bright stars -- the kind that dominate the night sky, but are lamentably both rare and short-lived. If biology's your thing, you can forget those guys.
So now we have the skinny for our galaxy: There are at least 33 billion habitable worlds. At least. (We haven't considered large moons that could be paved with protoplasm, such as the fictional satellite Pandora in the movie "Avatar"). If they exist, they'll simply swell this already-impressive crowd.
However, and before cutting to the chase, a brief, historic note: In 1961, a dozen scientists gathered in West Virginia to bat around the idea of intelligent life in space. The agenda of this small meeting was a simple equation, constructed by the organizer, astronomer Frank Drake. The Drake Equation has since become a staple of astronomy textbooks everywhere, as it neatly summarizes the parameters that determine how many aliens might populate space.
One of the factors in this famous formulation is the average number of Earth-like worlds in a random solar system. In 1961 -- which was long before planets around other stars had been found -- the meeting participants didn't dare to offer an official opinion on this number. But they did vaguely speculate that most stars might have such life-friendly locales. Today, their optimism seems both justified by the data, and remarkably insightful. They were either prescient, darn smart, or secretly clued in by aliens. I vote door number two.
So check out the Milky Way next time you're outside the glare of city lights, and ruminate on the thought that at least 33 billion habitable planets are somewhere up there. But that's just the local population. We can't see the entire universe, but the fraction we can see is studded with roughly 150 billion other galaxies; each with its own complement of habitable worlds. So the number of life-friendly planets that are currently in the part of the cosmos we can possibly observe is five thousand billion billion.
That's a big number. It's bigger than the number of cells in all the people of Earth.
You may note that we've generally reckoned these figures to two decimal places, although that accuracy isn't really justified. For example, you could argue about the definition of "habitable zone," and plenty of people do. Different zone limits would shift these totals by maybe a factor of two or three, one way or the other. But when you're talking five thousand billion billion, all that really counts is the number of zeroes (in this case, 21).
It's a real morale booster for those who are searching for extraterrestrial biology. Look at it this way: In the Powerball lottery, your chances of winning the jackpot on a single ticket are about one in 175 thousand. If Earth is the only planet with life in the visible universe, then our planet has done the equivalent of winning the jackpot four times in a row. Not just four wins. Four wins in a row. That would, I aver, qualify our home world as a miracle.
So here's that promised bottom line. Unless you're convinced that our watery planet, one of hundreds of billions floating in a non-descript galaxy similar to a hundred billion other galaxies, is somehow more worthy than all the rest, you should expect not merely an occasional Chewbacca or Klingon hanging out in space. The universe is far more likely to be a teeming shore of life, and biology as much a part of nature as rocks and rain.
Are you special? Sure you are. But it's a good bet that you're not alone.

Dear colleagues: I am pleased to inform you the FOTOCAT blogs update corresponding to November 2013, with the equivalent of 25 pages of text. I hope you will find on interest the research reported in this issue.
Saying that the moon is made of green cheese doesnt make it true, even if one repeats that claim over and over, hundreds of times, or finds a small band of like-minded believers who parrot the claim.
Its not entirely clear why James Carlson continues to post countless comments online, denying the existence of UFO reports during the Echo Flight missile shutdown incident at Malmstrom AFB, Montana, on March 16, 1967, in the face of witness testimony to the contraryincluding from one of the missile launch officers present that day.
Carlson knows about the tape recorded conversation (see below) between myself and now-retired Col. Walter Figel, the deputy missile commander at Echo during the incident, in which he told me that he had indeed received a radio call from a security guard at one of the Echo missile silos, saying that he was observing a large, round object hovering directly over the site.
Figel also confirmed that he had, in response to the call, sent out two Security Alert Teams to investigate the report and that at least one of them confirmed seeing the object hovering over the missile silo. Figel also said that he and James father, Captain Eric Carlson, had been debriefed back at Malmstrom and told not to talk about the incident.
While my recorded conversations with Col. Figel took place between 2008 and 2010, he had made nearly identical statements in another taped phone conversation,(see below) with former Minuteman missile launch officer Bob Salas, in 1996.
There are other U.S. Air Force veterans who have also gone on the record about a UFO involvement in the Echo Flight incident, as well as a Boeing Corporation engineer, Robert Kaminski, whose job it was to find out why the missiles malfunctioned.
In 1997, in a letter to researcher Jim Klotz, Kaminski wrote that, There were no significant failures, engineering data or findings that would explain how ten missiles were knocked off alert. In other words there was no technical explanation that could explain the event.
Kaminski also wrote, Meanwhile I was contacted by our representative at OOAMA [Office, Ogden Air Material Area], Don Peterson, and told by him that the incident was reported as being a UFO eventthat a UFO was seen by some airmen over the Launch Control Facility at the time E-Flight went down.
Actually, the large round object sighted by the missile guard and reported to launch officer Lt. Walter Figel, had been hovering over one of the Echo missile silos, not the launch control facility itself. Nevertheless, Boeing engineer Kaminskis revealing testimony essentially confirms Figels account of a UFO-presence during the incident.
Of course, if James Carlson were ever to admit that Kaminskis letter is important, or that Figels tape recorded statements to me and Bob Salas do indeed contradict his fathers now-discredited claim that there were no UFOs reported at Echo Flight, he would in effect be admitting that he has been making a complete fool of himself online for the past several years, by championing his dads untenable position and, in doing so, viciously insulting the other veterans and researchers who dare challenge it.
This is one reason why Carlson will never, in his many online rants about Echo Flight, provide a link to the tape recorded admissions by Col. Figel that are available online.
After all, one can hear Figel tell me that, while he was skeptical of the UFO report he received from the security guard, it nevertheless did indeed occur. Figel also says, clearly on the tape, that while he thought the guard might be joking, that individuals demeanor was calm and businesslike. He seemed to be serious and I wasnt taking him seriously, Figel told me.
When I posted the transcript of this conversation-excerpt in 2008, James Carlson doubted its accuracy and chided me to post the actual tape recording. When I eventually did, Carlson then claimed that I had doctored it to make it prove my points. All challenges by me, to have a team of audio experts examine the tapeto verify that it is pristine and unalteredhave been ignored by Carlson and his supporters. Of course, they would have to pay for that expensive analysis so, it seems, they are not prepared to put some money where their skeptical mouths are.
Another reason James Carlson does not want others to listen to my tape recorded conversations with Col. Figel is because he refutes Carlsons claims, calling them off-base. Figel also says that Carlson has an ax to grind, something that James certainly does not want others to heargiven that Carlson incessantly cites Figel as someone who supports his own position. Regardless, James relentless hate campaign is quite obvious to anyone who reads his breathless tirades against me and Bob Salas.
Even Carlsons handful of supporters have urged him to tone it down, given the manic, often hysterical tone of his blog comment postings in which he wildly attacks anyone who supports the notion of a UFO presence at Echo Flight during the shutdown incident. Other, unaffiliated readers of his rantswho have no strong opinion about the case, one way or the otherhave called him a nut, wacko, fruitcake and the like.
Years ago I myself accused James Carlson of foaming at the mouth. However, that was before I learned that he had been medically discharged from the U.S. Navy due to a diagnosis of epilepsy. One symptom sometimes exhibited during epileptic fits is indeed a frothing at the lips during the seizures. Once I had James medical situation brought to my attention, I never again used that unkind characterization of his online outbursts.
Nevertheless, James usually bizarre, over-the-top tirades against me and Bob Salashe has called us liars and frauds countless timesraises the issue of his state of mind. When I spoke with his father Eric, in October 2008, he continued denying that UFOs had been reported at Echo Flight, however, when I asked why his son was so out of control in his online posts, Eric responded, James has some problems.
That same month, in a phone conversation with an associate of mine, Eric told him that he was concerned that James would have a nervous breakdown. (I am willing to testify under oath in a court of law that the elder Carlsons comment to me was exactly as I have portrayed here, and that I have accurately related the other conversation as it was presented to me.)
So, does James Carlson incessantly lie about the facts relating to the UFO events at Malmstrom Air Force Base because he is psychologically unbalanced, or is it just due to his complete lack of ethics? Or both?
Regardless, the questions remain: Why is James Carlson so unwilling (or perhaps unable) to accept the fact that his father misled him when he said that there were no UFO reports at Echo Flight at the time of the mysterious, full-flight missile shutdown? Why does James continue to deny or, in some posts, twist Col. Figels candid, taped remarks to me and Bob Salas?
Similarly, why does Carlson repeatedly lie about Salas former missile commander, Col. Frederick Meiwald, who has made emphatic remarks supportive of Salas? In 2011, Meiwald told me during a taped conversation (see below) that UFOs were indeed present at a different flightOscarwhen those missiles malfunctioned eight days after the Echo incident.
Although Meiwald had been on a rest break in the launch capsule when the ICBMs began dropping off alert status, once awoken by Salas, he witnessed most if not all of the missiles malfunctioning.
Meiwald also confirmed that moments later, in response to triggered alarms at one of the silos, Salas had dispatched a two-man Security Alert Team to the site. Those men, said Meiwald, saw a bright, flying object at low-level. near the missile silo and immediately fled back to the Oscar Launch Control Facility. One man was so distraught that he had to be transported to the base hospital before completing his shift.
James Carlson has for years loudly proclaimed that Salas was lying when he said that he had witnessed a UFO-related missile shutdown at Malmstrom in 1967. True, until Salas located Meiwald in 1996, he couldnt remember the designation of the flight and thought that he might have been at Echo or November.
Nevertheless, by the time Carlson started his public vendetta against Salas in the late 1990s, Col. Meiwald had already discussed the UFO-related events at Oscar Flight with Salas during a taped telephone conversation (see below). Meiwald later wrote him a follow-up letter (see below) containing more details.

Fortunately, James Carlson has a relatively small audience, even though he has posted hundreds of comments about these topics at various websites over time. Unfortunately, his hard core supporters, whose strong anti-UFO biases apparently allow them to endorse a delusional (or, perhaps, merely dishonest) persons baseless charges, keep egging him on, rather than urging him to seek the help he obviously needs.
Now, in the wake of Bob Salas recent revelation about having had an apparent UFO abduction experience in 1985, the usual critics are gleefully sharpening their knives. Given their blanket rejection of anything UFO-related, Carlson and his crew can be expected to go after Salas with renewed viciousness.
Importantly, six other former U.S. Air Force personnel have provided similar accounts to me in recent years. Those individuals had previously been involved in a nuts-and-bolts UFO incident in one of the nuclear missile fields operated by various Strategic Air Command bases. Then, weeks, months or years later, they allegedly had an experience comparable to the one now being revealed by Bob Salas. In short, his account is not unique.
I will have more to say on this last subject at some point in the future. At the moment, I am still gathering data. While the number of military veterans who have told me of their strange follow-up experiences is quite small, compared with the number who make no such claim, their accounts obviously deserve serious, unbiased investigation.
For more than six years, De Void has tended to avoid the whole alien abduction thing because, well, radar tracks, multiple eyewitnesses, detectable electromagnetic effects and videos are one thing. Nasal probes, mindscans, teleportation, hybrids thats an entirely different conversation. Although, if UFOs are truly the manifestation of the technology they appear to be, running circles around our most advanced weapons systems, then it stands to reason that literally anything is possible. But if thats true, if Zeta Reticulans or whatever can move like vapors into our bedrooms, then were all screwed, and De Voids not into that. Furthermore, try to goad the mainstream media into getting a grip on the idea of beaming humans aboard starships seriously; hell, De Void cant even get Texas public radio reporter Wade Goodwyn to examine ordinary FAA/National Weather Service records that painted a UFO incident he covered in his own back yard.

But, deep breath, here we go: Recently, retired Air Force captain Bob Salas went public with his own abduction experience. And theres no getting around it because Salas was one of the first military veterans to go on record about UFOs tampering with and disabling U.S. nuclear missile systems. His example emboldened dozens of other USAF veterans to step up and share their stories about high strangeness in the missile fields. Salas took a no-nonsense stance and wasnt afraid to call people out if he thought they were being dingbats. He spent years crafting a rep as a fully grounded left-brain type.
Now this -- an abduction in 1985 in Huntington Beach, Calif. You can read all about at the Open Minds site. The salient passage (cringe): He floated off the bed towards the locked bedroom window, which he felt certain they [the aliens, presumably] would be unable to lock. Nevertheless, he went through the window in an upright position and was taken aboard a craft. He was shown a needle, eight to twelve inches in length, which was inserted into one of his testicles in order to collect semen. Oy vey! The pain was excruciating, and when Salas complained to his abductors, the pain suddenly ceased. This was followed by a physical checkup in which his back seemed to be of primary interest. He next remembers moving through a curved hallway and seeing a bright light before suddenly finding himself back in his bed.
As abduction accounts go, this ones pretty routine. Salas states he never forgot the incident after it occurred, but he didnt recover the details until undergoing hypnotic regression in 2006. Only then did he begin discussing it with his wife Marilyn who, even today, recalls only the broader aspects.
I dont remember nearly as much as Bob does. I think I was being an ostrich about it, like, if I stuck my head in the sand itd all go away, Marilyn says from their home in Ojai, Calif. I remember being on the side of the bed that faced the doorway, and when I opened my eyes, there was a foggy, bluish, gray light down the hallway that seemed to be coming from the living room area. Thats all I remember, but it was a freaky thing at the time and I shut my eyes, thinking I dont believe what I just saw. It was so strange I didnt even mention it to Bob the next morning. Nor did hubby say mention it to her.
Though they met in 1969, Marilyn says Bob didnt even discuss the Minuteman missile shutdown at Malmstrom AFB, which happened just two years earlier, until the mid-1990s. Even then, it would be another decade before he started asking if she remembered a blue-light incident from Huntington Beach. Bob pressed the issue a lot farther than Marilyn did.
Honestly, I dont have any desire to know more than the blue light, she says. My concern, when Bob decided to discuss it openly, was how the general public was going to respond to it. But this is something Bob felt like he needed to do.
Salas says he wanted to spill the beans as soon as he got sharper visuals through hypnosis. Understandably," he says, "I wanted to fully establish my primary story before I talked about this. I did not factor my reputation into it Im not trying to make anyones life more difficult. But I feel a responsibility not only to myself but also to the hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people, whove been abducted.
So there it is the point man on UFOs and WMD, out of the closet. Will it damage his credibility? No doubt. Salas is unconcerned. Ive already received some blowback, but so be it, he says. But theyre not just here to fly around in our airspace. Something else is going on. If they're taking eggs and they're taking semen, then they're producing hybrid beings. And it could be either horrifying or unifying, depending on how you want to look at it.
De Void doesn't want to look at it at all. Nevertheless.
