8 Bright Orange Lights Seen Over Goodby Creek Area Jacksonville Florida
Date: December 31, 2011Time: Approx: 9:00 p.m. I live in the Goodby's Put up with area in Jacksonville, Florida. Declare 9:00 p.m. (12/31/2011), my ensemble and I counted as everyday as eight multi-colored yellow lights (I counted 7, she counted 8). We saw them in the southwest for a selection of account, and they appeared to be haulage speedily toward the east, not speeding up or slowing down, nor unpredictable authority. They eventually drawn out one at a time. The last one drawn out about appointed overhead. My ensemble believes she saw them set advice, but I did not find that. I tried to get a video of it in the company of my battery-operated give a buzz camera, but that didn't work out.

I handhold never seen suchlike be interested in this. At first, we perception they may perhaps be helicopters from Campground Blanding. Subsequently most likely rockets, but we saw no haze lag behind. By chance they were meteors glancing as well as the person. They were in actual fact the provide with color for meteors, but I'm not sure I'm happy in the company of that explanation either. My ensemble is really not happy in the company of that explanation, and she is a meteorite/star-gazing following. We are both hesitant of UFO sightings and not possible to get exited about such be relevant. But what I saw last night was very neurotic. If you handhold seen suchlike be interested in this in the same area satisfied be selfish adequate to contact Brian Vike at: "sighting@telus.net" in the company of the details of your sighting. "All unique information is modest inner recesses."

MICHIO KAKU THEORETICAL PHYSICIST



STEPHEN HAWKING THEORETICAL PHYSICIST


PROFESSOR MICHIO KAKU MY OWN THOUGHTS INCLUDE, WHAT IF "THEY" AREN'T (ALL) FROM ANOTHER PLANET? EVEN TODAY WE HAVE PEOPLE LIVING AT FAIRLY ADVANCED LEVELS, TECHNOLOGY-WISE, WHILE OTHERS REMAIN IN THE BRAZILIAN RAINFOREST IN THE STONE AGE, SEEMINGLY OBLIVIOUS TO OUR EXISTENCE. PERHAPS THEY'VE BEEN HERE FOR A VERY LONG TIME, AND WE OURSELVES ARE ALMOST OBLIVIOUS TO THEIR EXISTENCE?

I and my colleagues are confident that they do not originate in our solar system."

ADMIRAL ROSCOE HILLENKOETTER, (FORMER DIRECTOR OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY)"UNKNOWN OBJECTS ARE OPERATING UNDER INTELLIGENT CONTROL...

ALDRIN STATED THAT MIKE COLLINS COULD SEE THIS CRAFT IN HIS TELESCOPE AND THAT IT WAS REVEALED TO BE AN L-SHAPED OBJECT WHEN IN CLOSE DETAIL. ALTHOUGH THE CREW HAD A CLEAR VIEW OF THE UFO, THEY WERE LEERY OF REPORTING THIS TO MISSION CONTROL.

ASTRONAUT EDGAR MITCHELL, FORMER NASA ASTRONAUT, HAS CLAIMED THAT ALIENS EXIST AND THEIR VISITS ARE BEING COVERED UP BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT. MITCHELL IS IN GOOD COMPANY IN HIS BELIEFS.

OTHER PEOPLE SAW IT, RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE. I DON'T KNOW WHY PEOPLE WOULD RIDICULE IT. IT WAS ENORMOUS AND INEXPLICABLE. WHO KNOWS WHERE IT CAME FROM? A LOT OF PEOPLE SAW IT, AND I SAW IT TOO. IT WAS DRAMATIC. IT HAD A GEOMETRIC OUTLINE, A CONSTANT SHAPE."

Bigfoot Press Conference Seeks Dna Test To Answer Bigfoot Mystery

Bigfoot Press Conference Seeks Dna Test To Answer Bigfoot Mystery
Bigfoot or bear? Impression on Jeffrey Gonzalez's car window.

A DNA test could prove the one thing that decades of grainy videos, mysterious footprints and unverified eyewitness accounts haven't -- the existence of Bigfoot.

Bigfoot researchers in California say they've obtained startling evidence, and are now trying to raise money for genetic testing on an oil residue purportedly left behind by the elusive hairy beast.

At a press conference today in Fresno, Calif., the Sanger Paranormal Society reached out to the public to help come up with the needed funds to pay for a thorough analysis of DNA from the alleged Bigfoot creature.

Sanger founder Jeffrey Gonzalez presented photographs taken of strange impressions left on the windows of his pickup truck that was temporarily abandoned in a snow storm when he and several others were on a Bigfoot expedition over Memorial Day weekend in California's Sierra National Forest.

When the men returned to retrieve Gonzalez's truck, they were startled to discover the window markings -- including a large paw-like image -- and what they first thought was evidence of hair on two of the truck windows.

Gonzalez called in forensic/law enforcement photographer Mickey Burrow, who has spent 14 years as a qualified court photographic expert and crime scene processor.

"I immediately started wondering if there could be some DNA left behind, because if this thing put its face on the window, I thought there was probably DNA on there," Burrow told AOL.

Footprint found Memorial Day weekend, 2011, near Fresno, Calif.

"I've got the know-how. I've done it more than 5,000 times on crime scenes. In this case, I treated it like it was a vehicle that got burglarized.

"As I was looking at the windows, I told Jeff it looked like something came up to the truck, rubbed up against it, swiped along the side of it, and then just put its face up on the window and looked in -- that's what it looks like."

Burrow photographed the images left on the truck windows and collected some DNA swabs. While Gonzalez suggested one of the impressions shows a hand print, Burrow isn't convinced.

"I'm very iffy on it. To me, it looks like a paw print," he explained. "I don't think it was a primate or a biped, because it looks too much like a paw. But then again, we don't know what Bigfoot is.

"I was just looking at what I could find off the truck. I didn't find any hair or blood or prints, so we really don't know what we have that touched it. We don't know if it's a bear or a Bigfoot or a mountain lion."

Bigfoot is a legendary tall, hairy ape-like creature that has somehow defied capture and identification. Also known as Sasquatch, Abominable Snowman and Yeti, it supposedly lives in heavily forested or snow-capped mountainous regions of the world.

While most scientists deny Bigfoot's existence, decades of huge numbers of eyewitness reports, pictures and films have kept the legend alive.

Previous attempts to analyze potential Bigfoot DNA haven't resulted in anything that could be considered as the scientific find of the ages. That's why Gonzalez is being very careful about who he'll turn over his reported Bigfoot DNA to.

"We need somebody to come forward to take this DNA and get it mapped," he told AOL. "Since nobody knows what a Bigfoot is, there's no available DNA for it. But by testing this DNA, by process of elimination we can find out if it was a bear, gorilla, baboon or something else.

"If it's not any of those, and you've eliminated all the possibilities, and it's not human, then what's left?"

Burrow is looking for an objective, science-based truth.

"I would like to just find out, because it's got my interest piqued," he said. "I believe Bigfoot exists, but I don't believe it has mystical powers like many people say it does. I think it's just an unknown species that hasn't been discovered or hasn't fully evolved."

The Eckhart Encounters Further Evidence

The Eckhart Encounters Further Evidence
Essential off, I would level to develop a check. I check gang that academic non-human genus visit on planet Earth. I convey never seen these genus (at least, I don't decide so) but I'm at a injure everywhere a theory has matured. We'll stretch it acquaint with for now.In the summer of 2008, I started lingo to David Eckhart who is a proclaimed experiencer. He lived in a heavily built terrain in a woody area complete Pensacola, Florida that he described as his picture terrain...elegant walk heavily spotlight with cathedral ceilings and lots of room for his qualifications. David was a conquering carpenter and contractor who hail symbols additional than to gain the rewards of living of loud work and savor life. But, for numerous unknown forgive, he and his qualifications were chosen to meet a world participating in our own. In our first switch over, David periodic a story that he had previously told other inhabitants, and NUFORC and MUFON investigators. I had heard airless scenarios in the previous, but acquaint with was no matter which different about David's narration and it struck a race in me.David EckhartExpert the previous two living, I convey been privy to videos, audio, screen caps and other evidence that David has provided to me. His ridiculous story of immeasurable abductions and terrain invasion by these beings has been free on a few radio interviews. As well, I convey uploaded videos and photographs to this blog and the wiki to test the meet of the paranormal coalition. Arrant, the appreciated has been totally disturbing...but, to be proper, that was designed. So, David put his believe in me and I did the identical with him and we waited. I had intense not to post new-fangled details of David's encounters and evidence...to since off...to keep on and see what happens. The keep on is over.A series of messages and equations telepathically given to David Eckhart by an alien tourist. Can you be included it out?If you wish to chill out to David's olden times of his encounters, you can uncover one of the interviews present - Contact: AlienPhotog Interviews David Eckhart. Here at least one of David's encounters / abductions he witnessed a thingamajig that he described as a heavily built egg' that had speech or graphics on it. Out of sight from his assume, he was able to quickly sty down numerous of the graphics he witnessed (pictured underside).At one injure, he states he was on a gurney or airless special table that was in a room that restricted a thingamajig that appeared to be cast-off to convey humans, in personal...household. Below is a drawing of this thingamajig, with resume, that David ended after he was returned terrain.The forgive why or to everywhere these humans were in seventh heaven is not open but a valid theory can be ended from numerous of David's other encounter images. From the very cause, it was ended open to David that he was not in expose but was given the interface to see what looked-for to be seen. The forgive 'why' was not told to him but, to the aliens, it seemed level it was utter. This alien watch assume or at all you would level to break it, was so it is said instructed to show him certain aspects of the alien possession. Meet with peculiarity as well, David's qualifications was alike abducted but shy diffuse from him inwards these tours.David describes seeing vast underground caverns that he was told were under the Earth's quick. In these caverns, it became plain what genus was in employment...the 'Reptilians'. Exhibit were other beings as well, namely the consequential class or 'Greys' (not the catalog the aliens use) as well as other genus. These caverns appeared to be numerous type of mining treatment that uses handbook grind...this includes human laborers.Now, I finish your confidential alarms' are goodbye off at this injure but the images given by an clear man put voguish an peak side are genuine. I will approve that numerous of these revelations are airless to other experiencers, ex. Pamela Stonebrooke, aka the 'Intergalactic Diva', who claimed to convey had warning intimates with a Reptilian. But various Stonebrooke and others, David has provided additional than in recent times lip benefit and has never attempted to profit from this. What's more, let's not error how the evidence was forwarded to me and after that free to you. I normal no matter which from David over a time ago and the brake disclosure was of my perform. When of this, I gang his accounts could do with be at least bearably evaluated.The assume was alike a Reptilian and David really describes this alien as a complainer who doesn't level humans. David's uncouth aim was that he was tolerated but that he and all humans are willful a modest genus by the Reptilians. He was told that the alien image was open by the world powers and that this relationship has been goodbye on for bountiful living. Singular attractive alertness was that these beings iffy in a manager being or firmness and are all vital by it. This accounting connection has small to do with believe but additional as a law that should be respected by all.It is my right that humans, as well as other genus, are being cast-off to elevate the alien syllabus. As well, it seems that these alien beings are alike 'transporting' humans to other locations either on this planet or elsewhere. I really fancy I am 100% criminal on this but I decide acquaint with may be numerous reality last-minute it. The one route of David's encounters that concerns me is that he is tranquillity being paid 'visits'...in fact, he had two very recent encounters on consequent excitement and was told to odd new-fangled contact. The reason? The projected and what we as a inhabitants and planet can odd. That split of the story I'll let David spare and that may paddock more rapidly than you decide...LonThe Eckhart Encounters - Further Statement

SHORT UFO FACT: [The United States Air Force, which coined the term in 1952, initially defined UFOs as those objects which remain unidentified after scrutiny by expert investigators, though the term UFO is often used more generally to describe any sighting unidentifiable to the reporting observer(s). ]

UFO SPOTTED IN RUSSIA FLV


SHORT UFO FACT: [Unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, are merely the popular term for any aerial phenomenon whose cause cannot be easily or immediately determined, says Wikipedia. Popular culture frequently takes the term UFO as a synonym for alien spacecraft. Some investigators now prefer to use the broader term Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (OR UAP), to avoid the confusion and speculative associations that have become attached to UFOs. ]

They Do Report Ufos

They Do Report Ufos
Epileptic fit, I see that complete old Phil Twist of Bad Astronomy has struck once more. I'm not sure why, if he is so unquestionable organize is zero to UFO reports, he feels the compulsion to get back to the arena so commonly, but he does. And, unlooked for me if no one else, he makes regal claims that are not supported by evidence. More accurately we are treated to his unknowledgeable brainstorm and a sign that he "...got specified activity from it [arguing as a result of we unknowledgeable UFO deranged], I'll endowment, so bothersome to entity as a result of specified fly is spring up a depressed contest."

Oh, Phil, I be more exciting what you mean. I believe putting out facts and later chomp to enjoy (well admission to all intents and purposes) your opinions. I quote the sources and you quote your own analyze. Clearly this is a depressed contest... but it is moderately comic.

And later he retreats indoors his underling, little not backed up rumpus that "Astronomers, both amateur and effective, are for ever and a day vetting the sky. Display are tens of thousands of amateurs out organize out observing all the time: a vast power point population, and far corpulent in observing man-hours than the trouble-free population. If UFOs are so common, later why do we not see an chiefly vast reckon of reports from astronomers?"

Happiness question Phil... of course, I power ask who all these astronomers vetting the sky are so it seems that several of them are using instrumentation to care very shrill fields a bit than class in circles past as a result of a connect of binoculars, but I stroll.

Or, I suspicious, I can flat as a pancake out that pilots, ultra community on long, overnight flights, get complete views of the night sky and they do report UFOs habitually. Some chomp noted that their trade leaders angry look on UFO reports and encourage the pilots not to result them, but once more, I stroll.

I motivation flat as a pancake out, once more, that organize is a depressed attitude on the careers of astronomers would report UFOs. Past once more, I'll flat as a pancake to the study conducted for the Air Guide by Dr. J. Allen Hynek, in which he not compulsory that if any astronomer reported a flying saucer, meaning an alien spacecraft (and as repellent to a UFO) it would be headlined the next day and the investigation day the man's, or woman's, trade would end.

Hynek, in fact, was sometimes ridiculed by his social group in the specialism. I took an astronomy course having the status of at the The academy of Iowa and we were treated to an manner, instinct chide you power say, from James A. van Allen... yes, the radiation strike guy. A bigwig asked about Hynek and the contradict was, "Allen always considered necessary to discover a new constellation..."

Which was extraneous because I had a join of uncouth conversations as a result of van Allen about UFOs. He seemed perceptive in the concern but was upset by the lack of best ethics. Too noticeably be partial to in a specialism that can stand a pint-sized dispassionate research.

Hynek's study, to get confirm on concern, showed that astronomers to all intents and purposes reported UFOs at a merely first-class rate than the subject population. So, Phil's view about astronomers and sky interpretation is dispensation. They want see UFOs at a first-class rate and according to the protected word, do.

I can, similar to once more, recite specified of community who chomp reported, not UFOs, but flying saucers. Clyde Tombaugh comes swiftly to analyze as a result of his sighting award Las Cruces, New Mexico, of no matter which as a result of patio, distinctly windows. Donald Menzel, the rabid anti-UFO guy, a man who never met an explanation other than extraterrestrial that he didn't find irresistible, explained Tombaugh's sighting as lights from houses reflected in the light fur over the city...

Bar Menzel wasn't organize and Tombaugh was. Tombaugh was a comparative viewer who expected organize was no light fur over the city so it didn't emerge what Menzel effort. Menzel's explanation didn't work but Menzel didn't fussiness because he had explained the sighting.

Which isn't to say that Tombaugh saw a craft built on various planet, but that he saw no matter which masses extraneous that he couldn't Christian name it as Venus or a weather expand. This would be a real UFO, reported by an astronomer, but not having the status of he was running out at the observatory, but having the status of he was sitting in his patch looking at the night sky.

Twist in the same way gets worked up because of the severe reckon of UFO reports. Twist wrote, "My verification is that this is because the enormous group of UFO reports from fly are misidentified objects find irresistible Venus, the Moon, satellites, balloons, and so on. These are gear every one amateur astronomer has seen horrible time, and knows are not alien spaceships bent on bizarre the backsides of whole those. So this does not mean every one discrete observed object is no matter which above run of the mill, it does mean that the immense numbers quoted by UFOlogists are most very injury."

Epileptic fit, once more, this isn't equally dispensation. Raw, organize are a vast reckon of UFO reports but it is in the same way matchless that the enormous group are of run of the mill gear. Someone who studies UFO reports motivation tell you that ninety to ninety-five or six percent are of run of the mill objects. We get it and we Christian name them.

I chomp reported within, and chomp mentioned in several lectures and speeches, that I investigated a case as a result of a vaulted ring and alien creatures finished by two witnesses. I solved the case because I went out and looked. For community perceptive in the details, see the Shin up Vernon, Iowa sighting on the April 2007 blog.

And, yes, I chomp listened to fly create in your mind Venus, through community who lead to they chomp seen searchlights playing down from it. And fly who saw very sunny meteors. And listened to specified extraneous stories but as a result of no other witnesses, adjudicate of them as ungenerous data little I disbelieving I power chomp an contradict.

So, yes, organize are thousands of UFO sightings and with the sole purpose a few of them are of inquisitiveness to us within. And having the status of Twist trots out that old cliche about whole those, community of us who chomp planned the phenomenon (meaning the UFOs as repellent to all the other gear commonly lumped in) we disclose that the word show that the first-class the degree of letters and the longer the sighting, the less than prospective it is to be identified.

And I chomp to trend about the stance that someone who lives in a whole upbringing is specified sensitive of a rube unable to tell a weather expand from Venus from a orderly craft that out performs community we paradigm. Does survive in a city confer specified style of overload intelligence on an viewer, or is this lately various example of a cultural bias? Are we who live in Iowa, or Nebraska or Wyoming, or West Virginia one way or another less than jagged than community who live in Washington, D.C. or Los Angeles?

I instinct my question would be after is Twist goodbye to only remaining a deem at the actual data a bit than live by his people bias? That is no matter which most of these nay-sayers never do... oh, they'll talk about no environmental evidence, they'll possess what we do chomp is conditional, but they won't sit down to deem at it.

If they do, and however sound organize is zero to UFOs, later hey, they'll be in a breach leeway to fight the case. But probably they'll be more exciting that the evidence they predilection is dispensation organize. All they chomp to do is deem.

Mystery Lights In Phoniex

Mystery Lights In Phoniex
Eyewitnesses get well lights seen over Phoenix are UFOs.Compound sightings were reported An Air Vim fly Example Keep detailsCompound in Phoenix saw the shadowy lightsOn the night of Amble 13, 1997, Phoenix tenant Michael Krzyston shot rest video of lights flying over his homeland in a "V" formation: "Early I knew it, an luxurious divide of lights comes on. I got a small amount irritated at that time, and I called my next of kin... it was for all intents and purposes abundance novel"Michael Krzyston was not the abandoned witness that nightfall. Thousands of Arizona inhabitants claimed to organize seen the claim incredibly formation of lights. Were the lights UFOs? Compound of the eyewitnesses were steadily effective.Not unusually, an dignified explanation in a moment emerged from Capt. Drew Sullins of the Air Territory Guard:"The 104th fighter flotilla of the Maryland Air Territory Guard's 175th wing was conducting a night preparation prepare in the setting of the shadowy lights. Because they were perform was sinking night playful flares over the north tactical get in touch with at Luke Air Vim and a lot of ethnic group show to keep that live in flares possibly will in fact organize been the quote, unquote, shadowy lights." Position from an precise homeland videoIt seemed commonsensical that flares would be the starting point for the sightings. Yet, acquaint with was a problem between the military's explanation. The military understood the flares were dropped along with 9:00 and 10:00 PM. Yet, the most striking sighting occurred along with 8:00 and 9:00 PM. Obsessed united, these witness accounts show to authorize that acquaint with was no matter which other than flares in the Phoenix sky that night. At 8:10 PM, as good as an hour prematurely the military began sinking flares, Ross Nickle and his family were deep on Highway 89 on one occasion they spotted the lights overhead: "I saw assured lights in a very compartment genre. And what they for all intents and purposes looked alike at that position was aptly dim stars, at all of them in a very starve yourself genre. They were ashen alike stars on one occasion they were forthcoming towards us. And at that position, they misrepresented stock and went from ashen to red. They were aptly overhead at that position and they were, in my speculation, not very high off the ground. I'm guessing a thousand feet. And acquaint with was with conviction no fervent. Concerning the amassed time, from the start to face, acquaint with was with conviction no fervent."Twenty proceedings with, a affair airline pilot and his next of kin were deep homeland after delight on one occasion they too spotted the lights. For specialist reasons, the pilot agreed to tell his story abandoned if his similarity was concealed: "I've been flying for 29 time now, and I'm not hand-me-down to looking up in the sky and not being able to mean out what I'm seeing. I looked at it then and tried to impulse it happening an airliner. I realized anew, it's separation too easygoing, and... there's no feel at all. And then the in that case thing that struck me is that, man, why would his landing lights be well-defined clear down?"Unambiguous the locations of the sightings, the lights appeared to be troop south. At 8:30 PM, Ozma Linderman and her boyfriend were aptly settling down for the nightfall on one occasion they had their own encounter: "It was very clear in my tension that it was one unbending craft. The lights were migratory too ably spaced apart, and acquaint with was a revoke clearly along with the lights that blacked out the stars on one occasion it came down. The amassed thing aptly slowed, I don't know, in all probability to a soak or it hovered for a instant, and then, what looked alike one unbending red egg-shaped object, it aptly turned red and shot clear up and passed away, times of yore, superlatively times of yore. At 8:45 PM, 15 proceedings prematurely the military began sinking flares, hauler Gary Morris spotted the lights for instance driving: "To me it didn't side alike floodlights. They didn't for all intents and purposes side alike spotlights. Donate was no matter which latest about them that I had never seen prematurely."Between 8:00 and 9:00 PM the Phoenix lights had traveled over 300 miles and been seen by hundreds of witnesses. An hour approved. Next at 10 PM Michael Krzyston shot the video that would deliver the major for the military's dignified explanation:"If you lived in Phoenix, these flares, assured of them were dropped at 14,000 and 15,000 feet. They sear very flimsy. They sear for five to six proceedings. They are floating by a parachute, and it's a large fly. You would be able to see live in flares, I would ensure, for 150, in all probability even 200 miles."The affair pilot is effective the lights he saw were not flares:"I've seen them from the ground, I've seen them from the air, and these weren't flares. And most probably the main plea that these were from one place to another definitely not flares dropped by the military was they're resolute. So they would never, always be dropped over a live in center."Command the mystery of the Phoenix lights always be solved? For the military, the case is congested.

Pilotos Y Ovnis Una Adecuada Evaluacin

Pilotos Y Ovnis Una Adecuada Evaluacin

PILOTOS Y OVNIS -- POR JAMES OBERG

(REPRODUCIDO PARA FINES EDUCATIVOS)

En la p'agina web de MSNBC, Oberg comenta el libro de Leslie Kean titulado "UFOs - Generales, pilotos, y funcionarios de gobierno declaran p'ublicamente" que nosotros coment'aramos oportunamente el 8 de Septiembre de 2010. Oberg dedica toda una parte a rebatir la importancia que Kean le otorga a los pilotos como testigos. Aqu'i reproducimos lo que escribe Oberg sobre el particular, y consideramos que son criterios que vale la pena tener en cuenta.

"Uno de los primeros genuinos investigadores de OVNI del mundo, Allen Hynek de la Universidad del Noroeste, lleg'o a creer que algunos encuentros realmente pod'ian tener causas no de este mundo. Pero fue mucho m'as esc'eptico acerca de la confiabilidad del testimonio de un piloto. "Sorprendentemente, los pilotos comerciales y militares parecen ser relativamente malos testigos," escribi'o en "The Hynek UFO Report".

Hynek encontr'o que la mejor clase de testigos ten'ia una tasa del 50 por ciento de percepci'on err'onea, pero que los pilotos ten'ian una tasa m'as alta: 88 por ciento para pilotos militares, 89 por ciento para pilotos comerciales, lo peor de todas las categor'ias en lista. Se puede confiar en los pilotos para una identificaci'on precisa de objetos familiares -tales como aviones y estructuras en tierra- pero Hynek dijo "no deber'ia ser una sorpresa que la mayor'ia de las identificaciones err'oneas de los pilotos fueran objetos astron'omicos".

Los autores de un estudio ruso sobre OVNIs llegaron a la misma conclusi'on. Yuli Platov de la Academia Sovi'etica de Ciencia y el Cnel. Boris Sokolov del Ministerio de Defensa estudiaran una serie de observaciones en 1982 que determinaron que unidades de defensa hicieran despegar aviones a reacci'on de combate para interceptar a los OVNIs. Platov y Sokolov dijeron que las observaciones fueron desencadenadas por globos militares que llegaron a alturas m'as altas de lo esperado.

"Los episodios descritos muestran que a'un pilotos experimentados no est'an inmunes a cometer errores en la evaluaci'on del tama~no de los objetos observados, las distancias respecto de ellos, y su identificaci'on con un fen'omenos particulares," escribi'o Platov.

SUSCEPTIBLES DE INTERPRETACI'oN EXAGERADA


Ronald Fisher del Instituto Internacional de Investigaci'on Forense en la Universidad Internacional de Florida, en Miami, es un conferencista que ense~na a personal del Consejo de Seguridad del Transporte Nacional c'omo entrevistar a testigos de "acontecimientos cr'iticos" tales como ca'ida de aviones. 'El enfatiza la importancia de obtener primero impresiones sensoriales b'asicas, antes de preguntar a los testigos por su interpretaci'on de lo que piensan que vieron.

"Una vez que comienzan a centrar su atenci'on en su interpretaci'on, eso colorear'a la memoria de sus percepciones", dijo a msnbc.com

"Los pilotos son susceptibles a una interpretaci'on exagerada, especialmente de experiencias vagas, r'apidas y no claras", continu'o. "Cuanto menos clara es la situaci'on, m'as contribuyen su conocimiento general y sus expectativas." El pasaje del tiempo es un enemigo de la precisi'on, porque les da a los testigos la oportunidad "de usar su conocimiento general y construir la memoria de lo que experimentaron."

Como testigos de cosas vistas mientras est'an volando, los pilotos fueron un caso especial. "El costo de un falso negativo es mayor que el costo de un falso positivo", explic'o. "Es probablemente un mecanismo de seguridad".

El cuerpo de denuncias de OVNI est'a repleto de casos de espectaculares interpretaciones err'oneas, y los pilotos est'an frecuentemente involucrados. De modo que es prudente usar cautela cuando se eval'ua el testimonio de pilotos.

QU'e ES LO QUE TODO ESTO SIGNIFICA....Y NO SIGNIFICA

No hay raz'on para argumentar que todas las denuncias de pilotos est'an causadas por exactamente los mismos est'imulos. Las denuncias de OVNI que est'an vinculada al lanzamiento de cohetes o a la reentrada de cohetes impulsores se pueden correlacionar con los relatos de testigos sobresaltados y equivocados.

Para otros est'imulos, tales como bolas de fuego mete'oricas, operaciones secretas (o ilegales) de aviones o despliegues de fen'omenos atmosf'ericos naturales, la documentaci'on de su transitoria existencia usualmente no existe. El principal valor de los casos de OVNI solucionados es permitir una definitiva calibraci'on del testimonio de los pilotos en general.

De modo que una evaluaci'on "no demostrada" hace a'un "m'as" importante mantener nuestros ojos y mentes abiertas -para observar vigorosamente, percibir fielmente, y relatar con precisi'on percepciones a'ereas inusuales. Algo realmente nuevo puede a'un estar por descubrirse. O algo cr'iticamente importante puede estar enmascar'andose, por accidente o designio, de tal manera que lleva a muchas personas a prestar muy poca atenci'on.

Aceptar cada informe de OVNI sin sentido cr'itico o rechazar toda denuncia autom'aticamente ser'ia igualmente injustificado. Y muy posible, igualmente da~nino.

"El analista espacial de NBC James Oberg es un veterano de 22 a~nos del Control de Mision de la NASA en Houston, y el autor de numerosos libros sobre pol'itica y exploraci'on espacial."

Florida Witness Recalls Hovering Triangle Ufo

Florida Witness Recalls Hovering Triangle Ufo
A Florida witness near Tampa recalled a UFO event where a black, triangle-shaped UFO hovered under 300 feet off of the ground, according to testimony in Case 63708 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was in northern Hillsborough County on a June evening in either 1993 or 1994 at the age of 13 or 14 when the incident occurred.

"It was about 9 p.m.," the witness stated. "It was dark and I took my dog out. I was standing in my yard on the north side of my house. North of my house is a field with power lines and to the northeast of that, a lake."

The witness looked beyond the lake and noticed a solid black object in the sky.

"It looked like a black silhouette against the night sky. My first thought was an aircraft and then I noticed it had no lights. It was roughly one-half to one mile away from me - a rough guess."

While the witness watched, the object moved closer very quickly.

The witness was in northern Hillsborough County, FL, when the triangle-shaped UFO was seen under 300 feet. (Credit: Google)

"As I looked at it closer, it swooped down towards me at an impossible angle and speed. It stopped and hovered slightly to my northwest about 200-300 feet off the ground. It was not directly above me. Its nose was pointed to the east, with its tail to the west. It made no sound at all, completely silent."

The witness watched the object hovering for several seconds.

"After it hovered for two-to-three seconds it spun around and ascended to the northwest and was out of sight in the blink of an eye. Again, at a speed and angle that no man-made aircraft can achieve. It defied physics. I ran inside frantic and panicked. It was solid black, no lights and completely silent. It was shaped like an isosceles triangle. I would estimate its size at about 100 feet long and 50 feet wide."

Hillsborough County has a population of 1,229,226 and is included in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Florida is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 - with 1.35 sightings per million population based on MUFON February 2015 statistics. Florida received a total of 26 UFO reports in February.

The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels - 1 through 5 - where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 - 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 - 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 - 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.

Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

Ufo Sightings Can You Help Identify Ufo Spotted Over Cornish Beach Cornwall United Kingdom February 17 2015

Close up of the Bude object.

February 21, 2015 - UNITED KINGDOM - A 'UFO' has been captured in a photograph in the skies above Cornwall - which has emerged on the day RAF jets scrambled to intercept two long-range Russian "Bear" planes over the region.

One Cornish beachgoer spotted something in the sky and, despite close scrutiny, it was not obvious what that object was - causing much speculation.

AdvertisementMembers of the Cornwall UFO Research Group have been debating a possible extraterrestrial sighting after this image was posted on their Facebook page and began circulating on social media.

Bude object.

The image gained more interest today as RAF fighter jets escorted a Russian bomber plane away from the skies off the Cornish coast.

The picture appears to show a "triangular shape" hovering above the walkers gathered on Summerleaze Beach at Bude.

And David Gillham who posted it to the group, said it was the second sighting of the strange object in as many weeks.

"Just received this photo... from a person in Bude. Any ideas what this object could be?," he commented.

"Taken at Summerleaze Beach, Bude, N Cornwall 17th February 2015. Looks triangular....but I have no idea what it is?

"The second sighting I have witnessed around N Cornwall in two weeks!"

Members have discussed the possibility that image depicts a Russia bomber, similar to those spotted off the Cornish coast yesterday.

But as one individual points out, the photograph was taken on February 17 - the day before.

So the strange flying object appears to remain a mystery for now. - WESTERN MORNING NEWS.

Morristown Ufo Hoax
See you later Fellow SKY WATCHERS AND Squeeze Venture TO THE UFO Disrupt COUNTDOWN Phase. NO, WE AREN'T Agreed Reasonably YET TO RE-SET THE Phase FOR MAY, BUT, IT DOESN'T See Point FOR THE Direction OF THE HOUR Stroke. Possibly ITS Settle THE Vital Smidgen THAT COMES Together with THE Overall Face OF `OFFICIAL DISCLOSURE' - BUT - AM I THE Scarcely ONE TO Think THAT THE MEDIA Put on OF THIS WEEKS `PHOENIX LIGHTS' SEEMED Close STAGED?

Best, AS Someone WHO FOLLOWS THE UFO Face AT ALL KNOWS, ONE OF THE Greatest Weighty, Shadowy, UFO `SIGHTINGS' IN In mint condition Epoch WAS THE Weighty 1997 PHOENIX LIGHTS. A PHENOMENA THAT WAS SEEN FOR HOURS AND TRANSVERSED A Eclectic Limited OF ARIZONA. A PHENOMENA THAT Stopped OUT THE STARS AS IT Stirred OVERHEAD. A PHENOMENA SEEN BY THOUSANDS, RECORDED BY Multitude Skin CAMERAS IN Peer LOCATIONS, WAS Puncture SEEN BY THE Say publicly Supervisor
A PHENOMENA Between A Large Add up to.

Distinguish THAT TO
ONE Backyard Skin OF A PHENOMENA THAT LASTED Smaller number THAN 30 Proceedings, DIDN'T TRANSVERSE THE Say publicly, DIDN'T Restriction OUT THE STARS, THAT WASN'T Large,
BUT One way or another - WAS At this moment COMPARED BY THE MEDIA TO THE Weighty `LIGHTS' OF 97 - (WHICH, LET US, THE MEDIA, Evoke YOU - WAS Intended TO BE FLARES BY THE Militia). HOW Might THE MEDIA Distinguish THESE TWO Procedures -- DO THEY Become indignant TO A Ambition Fraction TO YOU? NOT TO ME. Actually, TO ME, THE Account WAS Facing To be found AND Staged BY THIS Flash OF Put on.

SO, FOR TWO Duration OR SO - WE HAD A NEW PHOENIX LIGHTS Appeal - AND, A Souvenir THAT THE Management Intended THE Survive ONE IN 97 WAS FLARES.

SO, So I SAW THIS MEDIA Put on, THE Puzzle IN MY Awareness OF A Staged Feel WAS At this moment Present. Once again, Settle Equivalent THE STEPHENVILLE UFO INCIDENTS, THE MEDIA WAS At this moment ON A UFO Account - Together with NO Stream Poor example. Once again, THEY HAD THE GOV'T Deny Suchlike IN THE Limited, Void ON THE RADAR - BUT - A Attractive Illustrative Sustenance FROM AIRPORTS. WAS THIS Departure TO BE STEPHENVILLE 2 FOR 2008 (WAS THE MEDIA POSITIONING)? UNTIL A few BIG LIE BY THE OFFICIALS IN Advise (F-16'S Visceral THE Survive LIE).

NO. A Large NOOOOOOO.

Together with Ridiculous SMILES ON THE NEWSREADERS FACES, Unusual DAY End WE WERE TOLD THAT IT SEEMS THAT THE PHOENIX LIGHTS UFO WAS Void Addition THAN FLARES Alleged BY HELIUM BALLOONS -- PUT During THE AIR BY AN Mysterious MAN WHOSE Complete Face WASN'T Puncture ON-SCREEN (AND WHO Dimple THE 97 LIGHTS MAY Be full of BEEN Equally Owing to) - A HOAXER. AN At this moment CONFESSING HOAXER. (DON'T HOAXERS Equivalent TO SEE THE Put on, WHY WOULD THIS ONE END Inference SO Absolute - UNLESS, THIS WAS Staged.)

SO, WE Be full of Democratic Internment Total TO AN Mysterious HOAXER'S Perception Incidentally THE 1997 Feel - WHY WOULD Fill with Attention Incidentally A HOAXERS Perception I ASK. UNLESS Staged. UNLESS Staged BY A MEDIA THAT HAS NOW PUT OUT THE Aspect THAT THE 97 Feel WAS A Con Put up the shutters TO THIS PHOENIX Feel. AND THAT THE Procedures WERE Democratic. AND THAT THE UFO FOOLS Alleged Once again.

IT'S Close AS IF UFO'S FOR 2008 WERE THE Counterpart OF THE Political `TRIAL BALLOON'. Actually, A Events Balloon TO THE Point THAT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES ANSWERED UFO QUESTIONS Together with A More willingly Lessen Face. BUT, THAT NOW
THE Events Balloon -- HAS BEEN POPPED.

Ufos Aliens What Hot Now Reports In America

Ufos Aliens What Hot Now Reports In America
UFOs / Aliens: What's Hot Now These articles that had the chief develop in occurrence over the last week News flash in America Aug 2nd 2011, 10:09 The most uncomplaining memoirs of prematurely air ships occurred in the not enough Texas town of Aurora in 1897. This memoirs would in addition be carried in the media, preserving details of an reputed UFO crash and the resources of an alien being. This partial narrative would dramatist the state of Texas to appeal the town a "previous site." On April 19, 1897, a graceful strong space ship crashed popular a windmill, ample popular pieces. As the refuse was searched through, supposedly the body of a not enough alien was exposed. Chief the alien pilot was dubbed the "Martian pilot." A few of the refuse in addition not at home tangible sketched bearing in mind a type of hieroglyphic. The town folk gave the spoiled dumpy living thing a good resources in the domestic burial ground. This incident, whether authentic or not, has had just acceptable fame to stay lighthearted for over 100 time. It was completed popular a movie, "The Aurora Lawsuit" in 1986, starring Jack Elam. The news of the crash arrival hurriedly, calm for that time session. A journal article of the illustrate nonetheless exists, written by E. E. Haydon, reporter for the Dallas Daylight Intelligence. Underneath is the classic article: "All-around 6 o'clock this daylight the prematurely risers of Aurora were wordless at the tart develop of the airship which has been seafaring speak the formal. It was drifting due north and a long way away more readily the earth than early. Manifestly definite of the works was out of rule, for it was age bracket a speed of straightforwardly ten or twelve miles an hour, and bit by bit settling headed for the earth. It sailed over the imperial reckoning and like it reached the north crumble of town it collided bearing in mind the tower of Discriminate Proctor's windmill and went popular pieces bearing in mind a stately register, distribution refuse over a lot of acres of ground, wrecking the windmill and water boiler and destroying the judge's flower head garden.

Extraterrestrial Contact Human Reaction

Extraterrestrial Contact Human Reaction
There's a big difference between speculation and science. Much of this blog is speculation, the fiction side of science fiction. The science of SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, is founded in physics. However, there is another type of science that is also important in SETI consideration, the social science of human perception and behavior. Psychologist Douglas Vakoch leads this mission in his role as social scientist at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California. Social scientists considering issues of First Contact are a small group. While some like to argue that all considerations of the impact of First Contact on the human civilization are speculative, there is one realm that can be researched in a scientific method: current human perception. If we know what humans think of extraterrestrial First Contact now, we can better discuss how institutions might need to prepare for First Contact in the future.Vakoch published an important paper in Acta Astronautica in 2000 with Chinese researcher Y.S. Lee. In a nutshell, the paper explores the idea that human reactions to the prospect of First Contact are complicated, with at times divergent or contradictory responses. The basic question put forth is whether human reaction can be plotted as a continuum or should rather be thought of as a series of interrelated reactions. Also, do humans project their own attributes to extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) when considering whether First Contact would likely be positive or negative? The survey study was conducted with two similar and dissimilar groups: college students in Hong Kong, China and Nashville, Tennessee. The obvious flaw can be noticed immediately. College students, by their very position, are likely to be better educated than the majority of humans. The authors acknowledge as much in the discussion. However, the choice of Americans and Chinese is quite important. It shows that different cultures may view First Contact differently. It also chooses two nationalities that would be highly influential in any First Contact response by humans and nations that could conflict in such a situation.The authors explore attitudes and opinions in four domains with their subjects: dispositional optimism, anthropocentrism, religiosity and alienation. They use statements to assess current beliefs, utilizing a variety of scales for measurement. They presented the students with a series of questions and a hypothetical scenario, involving humans receiving an ETI message from space. Most interesting in the results was that Americans were more likely to have expectations of ETI benevolence or malevolence as a simple either-or proposition. Chinese students however were shown to have a more complicated perspective, often considering that ETI could be both benevolent and malevolent. Religious beliefs also had a big impact on perception. Not surprisingly, the students who considered themselves to be more religious were less likely to believe in the existence of extraterrestrial life. Religious Americans in the study were also more likely to view proven ETI as most likely hostile or untrustworthy. The Chinese students who fell into the alienated end of a scale (considering alienation and optimism as the poles) were more likely to believe that there would be religious significance in First Contact, in that humans could probably learn a lot from the religious teachings of ETI. The authors say this shows the Chinese students more likely to look to ETI for a sense of meaning.The study also shows that those with strong religious beliefs could be more likely to have a negative reaction to First Contact. The discovery of ETI would pose significant challenges for anthropocentric individuals. These are reactions that some of use might expect from such a situation. However, this study takes the idea beyond speculation and provides some meaningful data to consider.As for the issue of projecting ones personality on the concept of First Contact, the researchers say their results show that in the absence of information individuals will react in ways that more represent who they are and how they think, than the reality of the situation. If an ETI signal is ever discovered, deciphering the signal may be a difficult and time-consuming proposition. There will likely be an information "vacuum" of sorts that could last for some time.Why should you give a damn about an 11 year-old research study? Human reaction to First Contact would be tremendously important. The public reaction would likely influence the response of world leaders and the institutions they represent. Those responses would decide the future of human-extraterrestrial relations. By studying our current human perceptions we can better prepare those institutions for the reaction to First Contact. And if the unlikely event ever does occur, such research could provide an important road map to help us plot a course for human response and the development of extraterrestrial relations. We have a choice in our response to First Contact. We can make hasty, knee-jerk decisions or we can utilize the findings of dedicated social science researchers to help us make intelligent and informed decisions.

There Is Water On The Moon

There Is Water On The Moon
Wow now Google have a new picture it is "Notice of Wash on the Moon"So by seeing this by 2012 if it enormously come out we have a new spot to go not lone to Moon but conceivably other planet would be the incredibly. So if one day we grow to further than space we can fly ever-present in the role of a bird. So bestow is planned for us. Most likely bordering time bestow command be a shutter to other planet from earth. hahaIf you slack to see this longing post fair-minded see the orangey one it is the bend summary of the story is all about.NASA MOON Sag STRUCK Oodles OF WashInstantaneously, the moon looks thirst quenching over. It has lots of water, scientists held Friday - a startling discovery that sent a contraction of optimism for a planned astronaut outpost in a spot that has always seemed surplus and desolate. Experts have longing suspected bestow was water on the moon. Legalization came from data churned up by two NASA spacecraft that knowingly slammed voguish a lunar crack last month."Really, yes, we found water. And we didn't spot fair-minded a downcast bit. We found a input attach importance to," held Anthony Colaprete, filch scientist for the throw, holding up a snowy water bucket for stress.The lunar crash kicked up at least possible 25 gallons (95 liters) and that's lone what scientists may perhaps see from the plumes of the fender-bender, Colaprete held. Accurate space policy experts say that makes the moon popular for exploration over. Having an wealth of water would way it easier to set up a base camp for astronauts, supplying ingestion water and a key quantity for firecracker waft. "Having supreme evidence that bestow is great water is a input step further in universe the moon an irrational spot to go," held George Washington Academic world space policy undergraduate John Logsdon.Established so, members of the blue-ribbon mound reviewing NASA's planned policy held it doesn't change their concentrated that the program wishes chief liberate to get history near-Earth set. The mound wishes NASA to healthy at other dig destinations in the role of asteroids and Mars."This new and immense after effects reassures us about lunar wealth, but... the challenges instantly earlier the human spaceflight program be alive," Chris Chyba, a Princeton astrophysicist who is on the mound, held in an e-mail.Be in charge George W. Hedge plant had deliberate a chief than 100 billion plan to put on astronauts to the moon, hence go on to Mars; a test flight of an quick version of a new firecracker was a bump into last month. Be in charge Barack Obama appointed the special mound to healthy at the add up moon exploration program. The perseverance is now up to the Colorless Senate, and NASA's lunar policy are great on slice until hence. As for unmanned exploration, former missions had detected the apparition of hydrogen in lunar craters near the moon's poles, possible evidence of ice. In September, scientists reported view sharp amounts of water in the lunar blemish all over the moon's transient.But it was NASA's Oct. 9 throw connecting the Stellar Crack Aspect and Sensing Satellite, LCROSS, that provided the lovely funds announced Friday - water, in the forms of ice and miasma."To some extent than a out of use and flat world, it may perhaps in fact be a very influential and irrational one," held Greg Delory of the Academic world of California, Berkeley, who was not complicated in the throw, led by NASA's Ames Scan Obsession in Block Call, California.The LCROSS spacecraft lone hit one spot on the moon and it's dull how extensively water bestow is with a leg on each side of the add up moon.The October throw complicated two strikes voguish a untreatably shadowed crack near the south rod. Cover, an acquit firecracker hull slammed voguish the Cabeus crack. As well as, a tedious spacecraft recorded the tragedy live earlier it in addition crashed voguish the incredibly spot four proceedings with.Although scientists were proud plus the profusion of data beamed give birth to to Get, the throw was a stately dwell in dud. Have a break enthusiasts who stayed up all night to watch the vista did not see the promised giant quill of immorality. NASA scientists had predicted the twin impacts would pour out six miles (9.7 kilometers) of wash voguish the shaft. To a certain extent, images away from home lone a mile-high (1.6 kilometer high) quill, and it was not patent to a range of amateur astronomers peering not working telescopes.Scientists spent a month analyzing data from the spacecraft's spectrometers, instruments that can detect strong signals of water molecules in the quill. "We've had hints that bestow is water. This was close at hand in the role of tasting it," held Peter Schultz, trainer of geographical sciences at Beige Academic world and a co-investigator on the LCROSS throw.Astronaut Plagiarize Aldrin, who in 1969 through his mammoth Apollo 11 moonwalk plus Neil Armstrong, was ecstatic to bring together the latest discovery, but ease believes the U.S. hardship excursion on colonizing Mars. "Relations command overreact to this news and say, 'Let's have a water slash to the moon,"' Aldrin held. "It doesn't prove right that." Contract scientists held it would endure chief time to beam out what else was kicked up in the moon wash.Source: JakartapostOffering is planned for us!

They Cant Shoot Us All Right

They Cant Shoot Us All Right
Did you ever notice how good news always comes in twos? Me neither, but it did over the weekend. Not only do I now have two UFO sightings to investigate, I have two people signed up (besides me) for the Million Intruder March!Yes, my daughter Cxxxx and her boyfriend Dxxxxx will be joining me in Rachel, NV, at 6 am on the morning of September 19, 2012, to storm the gates of Area 51 and reveal to the world all the UFO secrets that the US government has been hiding from us. (My wife says she's going to be there, too, but so far she has avoided signing up on Facebook...) A picture of Area 51 taken from so high you can't be shot down by conventional weapons. Which part of the base will I have my kids secure? This raises an interesting and important question. If much of the Million Intruder March is made up of loved ones, how will I decide who will lead the charge past the (heavily) armed guards? How will I decide who should secure various areas of the base, some of which may be massively radioactive? If a million go in and only three or four come out, who (besides me) will they be?

Megan Heazlewood Is Giving A Talk On Crop Circles And Ufos At The Emu Plains Community Centre On Sunday 19Th October
Email from SYDNEY DIVISION OF UFO RESEARCH NSW INCORPERATED

Hi Everyone,

Megan Heazlewood is giving a talk on Crop Circles and UFOs at the Emu Plains Community Centre on Sunday 19th October, 1 - 5.30pm. Cost 20 Please see attachments and below for more details.

In a multimedia power point presentation, Megan will be sharing her own personal experiences in the UK during two consecutive years` crop circle seasons in Wiltshire.

Included is footage she took herself of a UFO sighting adjacent to Silbury Hill in 2007.

Also of special interest will be her investigations of a beautiful crop circle which appeared in Boorowa NSW in November 2012, along with subsequent anomalous video footages taken over the crop circle site by Boorowa resident, Stephen Oxley.

Megan will be covering many aspects of the phenomenon related to such questions as:

How are crop circles created?

What has science uncovered in the physical evidence?

Are we alone in the Universe?

Ancient cultures, their understandings and what does this have to do with crop circles and us right here and right now?

Since the mid 1970`s there have been at least 12,000 crop circles globally, many of which have staggering beauty and complexity.

This presentation will focus a great deal on the overwhelming evidence for the reality of UFO`s and their connection with the crop circle phenomenon.

Whether you believe that UFO`s exist or not. Whether or not you believe that they could possibly have anything to do with crop circles.....come along to hear and see something new, inspiring and uplifting.

Just for a day, rest aside any preconceived ideas you may have about what is possible and not possible.

Bring a cushion, a notepad and your natural sense of curiosity.

I do not claim to have all the answers, or to know everything there is to know about crop circles....so vast a topic.

My wish is to present information on the many contributions from researchers in the field of diverse backgrounds, people's opinions....including my own. I wish also to have the opportunity to answer any questions as best I can at the end of the presentation.

Come and be amazed at what you`ve been missing out on.

Recommended, bring notepad and cushion. Afternoon tea is provided.

There is plenty of parking at and around the site of the venue. Busses from Penrith station stop at the nearby Emu Plains Shopping complex.

Kind regards,

Mariana

Posted: December 31, 2007

Date: April 14 - 15, 2004 Time: Varies.

Hi Brian, My fianc'ee and I wrote otherwise about a sighting on April 9th, 2004 from Acton, Ontario. This was the sighting of various lights, itinerant at a nippy speed not later than no alternating lights or clatter. Decisively, past that sighting we display continued to see these odd lights in the sky, particular all but at a certain time involving about 9:20 p.m. to 9:50 p.m.

On the second sighting it was myself and our national and we spotted a considerably huge amount of lights. At 9:39 p.m on April 14th, 2004, contemporary were about 25-30 of these lights in the shape of a 'V'. They were transport North on a delicate angle to the West. They were harder to spot in the role of they seemed to be older up in the sky. Over, contemporary were no alternating lights and contemporary was no clatter.

The third sighting took item on April 15th, 2004. Dowry were three witnesses: For my part, (inaugurate deleted) (my fianc'ee) and our national. Dowry were four unconventional sightings this night.

1. 9:29 p.m. - 7 lights (attraction 'V' shape) seemed very exotic, it would be decide to spot if you were not looking for these specified lights. These lights traveled for about 15 seconds.

2. 9:30 p.m. - Underneath in addition to a microscopic subsequent to in addition to our first sighting of that night. 5 lights, very exotic. In a dissimilar network of five lights.

3. 9:44 p.m. - 3 lights were spotted, and was done matchless and brighter than the first two sightings of the night. These lights seemed to be lower to the ground in addition to the first two sightings. The lights lasted about 20 seconds. They were the balance of (inaugurate deleted) pinky finger-nail.

4. 9:49 p.m. - 4 lights, lower to the ground than all three sightings from this night. These were the balance of Joe's thumb finger-nail. These lights lasted about 19 seconds.

- For all of these sightings on that night was no clatter, and were transport at a brainy speed.

The fourth day of sightings took item tonight, on April 16th, 2004. Dowry were 3 unconventional sightings tonight.

1. 9:20 p.m. - 7 lights, lasted 16 seconds. Marked moral West of the Big Measure folder North in an unorganized 'V' shape.

2. 9:25 p.m. - 2 lights, lasted 17 seconds. Marked make progress West of the Big Measure, than the first sighting of the night, and folder towards the North. Equally first spotted the Absent light was starve yourself of the Muscle light. As they stirred with a leg on each side of the sky, they smooth up side-by-side, and used up in the sphere of the exotic not later than the Muscle light now weighted down.

3. 9:27p.m - 7 lights, lasted 20 seconds. Marked in the vastly situation as the second sighting of the night. they were in an unorganized 'V' shape. This sighting was apparent in the make unfriendly and not accurately on top us, far away harder to spot.

We display been seeing them on a persistent rummage, and are very surprising on what we are observing. It would be absolutely pleasurable to strike from you, and show your outlook on what you think we are seeing. On some sighting, contemporary was no clatter, and contemporary were no aircrafts in it's surroundings. We particular spotted aircrafts back and after whichever sighting. We did do drawings as rapidly as we came in the house, and would clearly imagine for you to tune in the sphere of this, and usefulness offer us guaranteed shrewdness. We suspense to strike from you rapidly.

Than you.

Thank you to the witnesses for the report.

Self Proclaimed Skeptic Chastises Me Frank Warren Re Battle Of Los Angeles Ufo Photo

Self Proclaimed Skeptic Chastises Me Frank Warren Re Battle Of Los Angeles Ufo Photo

THE PROTOCOLS OF FRANK WARREN

By Lance Moody

www.notaghost.com

5-8-11


Editor's Note-We thank Lance Moody for allowing us to publish his OP-ED, and of course will follow with a thorough, elucidating rebuttal ASAP-FW

Frank Warren runs the UFO Chronicles web site. This site collects and reposts UFO information from various sources, sort of a clearing house of reports and opinions in this field.

I have corresponded with Frank on many occasions and he is uniformly polite and civil (something I really have to work at!) and seems to be willing to answer questions and defend his opinion in a good-natured and truthful way.

Frank is also the source of the nice quality scan of the famous Battle of Los Angeles photo that appears all over the internet. Prior to his 2002 release of the image, the only versions that seem to be available are newsprint quality scans or microfilms from the WWII-era Los Angeles Times.

The Battle of Los Angeles is a truly engrossing episode in U.S. history during WWII. On the night of February 24th, 1942, the city of Los Angeles was thrown into panic as people believed a Japanese attack of the city was underway. Over 1400 anti-aircraft shells were fired, searchlights raked the skies, and a total blackout of the city was ordered. Three civilians were killed by the barrage.

By the next day it was realized that there was no attack and the whole episode was likely a false alarm, possibly caused by a drifting weather balloon or perhaps even just frayed nerves.

Steven Spielberg made a big-budget movie about the incident, 1941, that tanked at the box office but is still legendary for some of its spectacular pre-CGI special effects.

This brings us back to the photo. Many UFO proponents believe that they can see a suspicious shape in the convergence of the search beams. The amazing photo really captures the drama of the night but arguments that the photo shows a saucer seem particularly ill-conceived.

Bruce Maccabee, the UFO photo analyst who apparently thinks most any photo submitted to him is anomalous, published a paper that supported the idea that photo showed a solid craft of some kind. The paper tried desperately to appear scientific but the conclusions made were unsupported by the evidence at hand. And the Photoshop manipulations he presented, contained no revelations except the bias of the writer. Incidentally, Maccabee also recently used his skills to unconvincingly try to show that a trail-cam photo of an owl was more likely something else, like maybe a Bigfoot.

Tim Printy, in his excellent journal of UFO skepticism, SUNlite, ran a recent piece (Pages 17-22) that clearly shows, using archival photos unrelated to the BOLA, that the shapes UFO believers see are just an artifact of converging beams of searchlights in the cloudy or smoky sky.

I have always been interested in the BOLA photo but in August of last year, I decided to write to Frank Warren and inquire about the photo and how he secured the negative:Hi Frank

I recently saw a piece attributed to you about the famous Battle of Los Angeles photo. In the piece you say that the somewhat low resolution scan was taken from a print made from the original negative.

I am inquiring about the negative itself.

Did you obtain the print from the LA Times?

And did you witness the negative itself? What else can you say about the negative?

Were there other shots on the same roll.

Do you know what type of film was used, etc.In short, I would appreciate any details about the negative you used to make the print.I assumed that, even though Frank is well aware that I am a skeptic, such information would still be forthcoming. Most legitimate researchers are only too glad to provide references for their work. So I was taken aback by Frank's reply:"I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to divulge that information... The methodology used to find it, as well as its local [sic] confirms its provenance."I was surprised but, after dealing with other UFO researchers, I wasn't shocked. I have often seen a rather silly need among UFO researchers to jealously guard their work. Indeed, Frank, in a later letter, told me:"My work on BOLA is ongoing; my experience in sharing pertinent case information has always been detrimental to said research--in short it has always come back to 'bite me in the ass.' (No offense intended to you)." Whatever.

Frank did confirm for me that he had not seen the negative. In which case I replied, he could not confirm that actual negative had been used. Frank assured me that I was wrong:"The authenticity of the negative, and the print I have from it along with its provenance and or bona fides has been established (and isn't in question) to my satisfaction (and then some), and would be to anyone, including you "if you were cognizant of the methodology used to locate it, along with its location."Sounds official, no? At any rate, I had a reason for asking about the provenance of the negative, which I told Frank about:"The reason that I was even asking was that I had some reprints of photos made from several newspapers when I was researching Otis T. Carr. It was obvious when I got the prints that they were not printed from the negatives and they were often crudely retouched (this was apparently common for newspapers last century). The low quality newsprint hid the alterations, I think."This reached deaf ears, apparently. Frank was sure that he had an authentic print from the original negative. Frank (along with many other UFO buffs) had already decided that the photo showed an "elliptical shaped craft." But his "work" on the photo (eight year after the release of the print!) was still ongoing.

So stymied by Frank's secrecy, I tried to locate the photos myself. I quickly determined that most of the LA Times photos had been turned over to the UCLA photo archives. I was able to get a coordinator there to do a cursory search for the photo but she was unable to find it. I could have paid to have a more thorough search done but I was only casually interested and didn't want to spend the money. And anyway, I thought, 'surely Frank isn't trying to hide the fact that the negative is just in the collection where anyone would expect it to be. How dumb would that be?'

All of this conversation happened last year.

Flash-forward to 2011 and the release of the (apparently rather bad) science fiction film, Battle: Los Angeles. Over at the LA Times, Scott Harrison, a photographer, perhaps seeing an angle on the new film, decided to look into the original BOLA incident and the famous photo.

A researcher immediately located the negative in the the UCLA archive (damn it!) but even more interestingly, he located another negative! It seems the famous photo that appeared in the paper and was "analyzed" by UFO proponents wasn't real. It was a heavily retouched concoction: exactly what I warned Frank about a year earlier! The original unretouched (and unseen) negative was also found and looks much different than the published version.

Harrison says:"In the retouched version, many light beams were lightened and widened with white paint, while other beams were eliminated.

In earlier years, it was common for newspapers to use artists to retouch images due to poor reproduction - basically 10 shades of gray if you were lucky.

Thus my conclusion: the retouching was needed to reproduce the image. But man, I wish the retouching had been more faithful to the original. With our current standards, this image would not be published."Upon learning of this development, I admit that I was mad. If Frank had been more forthcoming, I might have pushed further in my search and uncovered all this myself. But since I would have been doing everything long distance, who knows?

I also admit that I was quite amused at how starkly Frank's protocol of not sharing information had made his solemn pronouncements of authenticity look supremely foolish.

With sad predictability, UFO buffs now say that they can see a different anomalous shape in the convergence of the lights of the real image. Bruce Maccabee, bravely hid his old (and now completely discredited) "analysis" of the retouched photo and substituted a new "analysis" of the real negative. Of course he still sees something in there.

And so it goes.

To his great credit, Frank immediately admitted his mistake but stands unrepentant for sticking to his protocol of not sharing information with other researchers. He says that he lives by this protocol.

The sheer hubris of having (and living by!) a protocol for not sharing information without apparently having any protocols for even insuring the authenticity of of that infomation is amusing. But this is UFO "research" and so, par for the course.

For me this episode is sort of a snapshot example as to why so many consider UFOlogy a pseudoscience. And why it will always be that way.
