Gemini 4 (or Gemini IV) was the second manned space flight in NASA's Project Gemini, occurring in June 1965. It was the tenth manned American spaceflight. Astronauts James McDivitt and Edward H. White, II circled the Earth 66 times in four days.
The highlight of the mission was the first space walk by an American, during which White floated free outside the spacecraft, tethered to it, for approximately 20 minutes. Both of these accomplishments helped the United States overcome the Soviet Union's early lead in the Space Race.
The flight was the first American flight to perform many scientific experiments in space, including use of a sextant to investigate the use of celestial navigation for lunar flight in the Apollo program. It is rumored that Astronauts may have filmed a UFO with a movie camera, during this mission, while in orbit passing over Hawaii.

THE FOLLOWING ANECDOTAL ACCOUNTS WERE RECEIVED FROM 'PHANTOMS & MONSTERS' READERS:
OLD MAN HAYES
This is a true story. When I was about twelve or so my family moved into a rural neighborhood called Hayes Glenn. It was some old farm land owned by a man named Mr. Hayes. We built a new home on five acres and moved in the winter of 1986. About a year or so later another house was being built next door to us. Being kids me and a good friend would hang out in the house while it was being built. One day we were just sitting in the unfinished house talking when we both heard foot steps coming down the hall right toward us. They were very loud because there was no carpet on the concrete foundation so they could clearly be heard. I looked down the hall and there was no one there. Thinking the owners were there we ran out of the house but I soon realized there was no body there.
A couple of weeks later I awoke up about two in the morning. My room was on the side of our house that overlooked the property that the house was being built on. I don't know why but I looked out of the window and clearly saw an old man standing outside of the house. I could see him in the moonlight. I went and woke my mom up but when she got to my room he was gone. Nothing else happened. The house was finished and a couple of years passed. I happened to be talking to a friend's dad who lived in the area. He was a police officer who, about 10 years before all of this, handled the case of old man Hayes...the farmer who had hung himself in a barn exactly were the neighbors house was built. JJ
STOP SIGN ENCOUNTER
About two years ago, I had an experience which I will recount to you. I have been speaking of this more, but it took some time to reconcile.
I believe it would have been early March. I am an interiorscaper, which means I take care of plants in offices and estates. At the time, I had the contract to maintain the plant material in the executive offices at Electronic Data Systems in Plano, TX. Because I maintained the plants for the highest level employees (ceo, cio, etc..), I would do my work pretty much in the middle of the night by escort of their security personnel. I had the contract to do this work for them since 1998.
Once a week, I would leave my home, where I live in a country setting, and travel about 45 minutes in to Plano to do this work. On this morning, it was about 2:30am. I had loaded my van with my work materials, and started out on a very cold and unpleasant morning. It had been raining and the wind was blowing. I had my windshield wipers on because the wind was blowing water off the trees, though it wasn't raining at the moment. I turned on the residential street to make my way out and to the main roads. As I approached the first stop sign, my headlights illuminated a being.
This is how I describe it: First, I must comment that I was immediately struck by a terrible fear. I believe my neck hairs stood on end, and I realized later that I had popped out in a complete sweat. I never sweat, and it was very cold, but my shirt had huge armpit rings by the time I reached the toll road. So I instantly knew that I was seeing something very out of the ordinary at the first second.
I would say this being was about five feet tall. It crossed the road on the cross street in front of me. I had probably 10 or so seconds as my van approached the stop sign, and I had my foot on the brake pedal already when I saw it. (I was traveling slowly anyway). It was a glossy white color, and I could not discern any clothing. It was the same glossy white from its head to its feet. It did not turn its head to look at me, so I do not know what the eyes looked like. It moved in a very strange fashion. It did not seem to have any bend at a knee area, and shuffled rather than walked. The arms were very long, much longer than a person's, and they hung down much past where one would expect knees, and also had no bend where one would expect elbows. I believe the hands were large. The head was not very big, nothing like one sees looking up pictures of 'greys'. There was nothing threatening in its manner, but I was terrified, nonetheless. I must say it took every ounce of courage for me to turn my head to the left in the direction it had gone when I came to a stop at the stop sign. I saw nothing there, and I floored it and got the hell out of there.
Nothing strange or unusual happened on the rest of the trip, although I was really scared. And nothing has happened in all the time since then. I wish I had known that there would be no consequences from seeing it and I could have saved myself a lot of anxiety. I would love to see it again, if I could know for sure that again there would be no consequences, and I could look at it from behind an army of people who probably believe me to be deluded or a liar.
Obviously, I have no idea what it is. Except to say that I know it is not human. I guess it could be an alien from space, or a creature from another dimension.
Seeing it had a big effect on me. I have never been in the least bit afraid outside in the night (I breed and raise horses, and I have spent many, many nights out in the barn by myself waiting for a mare to foal) but I was very nervous outside after that. I also began to dread going to that account. It was eons before I could go by that stop sign without feeling that fear.
I have had some unusual experiences in my life, but nothing like this. I do not know what to make of this experience, other than to acknowledge that there is much more to this world than we know. I come from a well-educated family of engineers and economists, and they would have preferred no family member of theirs have an experience like this, which puts on in a category of 'kooks'. Kate

From UFO Media Matters
"Rural area in the UFO suburb for the most accommodate misery disclosure. Dr. Salla constructively gives it to them...a few few months.
I am sure the doctor cares about the run in the UFO suburb but these enormously run are disillusioned one time his insider dope doesnt pan out. Not one in UFO research or any UFO "SPOKESMAN", in our suburb requirements to personal offering sources aroma. Michael Salla, PhD is a instance of the Exopoltics Bias. They are accommodate and container to a hum that thinks if you rebuke the government, tabled the media, of ghastly stuff, in the middle of no hardly evidence, they will be dishonored tolerable to here you all you misery.

Dr. Salla touted out a few months ago information on a UFO UN consultation the modestly deliver was it never happened. Let me ask the reader if they unite whatever thing this big would be leaked to Dr. Salla or his insiders? I ask,in all shyness, one time this force tabled Dr. Salla, will you utterly tie up listening to these popular people? Bestow seems to be a high spot transaction of crying plague with brute force a variety of blogs these days I make up your mind its supercilious about feat hits than allocation the truth get out.

Take supercilious. Respect this narrate

Wilkipedia writes about Dr. Salla an eminent synthesis of the "EXOPOLITICAL MAIN" Blameless search Dr. Salla.
"...His open-minded views bear prepared his work the question of substantial quarrel and moan voguish each one the ufological and average hard-working communities. A lot of the bang he uses to corroboration his stage set is unsettled due to a lack of empirical evidence to verify heaps of the claims. Despite the fact that heaps of Salla's sources are calculated to be believable by adherents to the UFO Shock hum who refer to a separate of basic documents and setting, critics contest these sources bear been discredited for a separate of reasons; among these the dispersal of patent falsehoods in the jovial of claims prepared, and the defamation of setting."

"Sean Casteel, veteran UFO researcher, suspects in recent article there..."IS A "BREAKAWAY CIVILIZATION" BEHIND THE MYSTERIOUS SECRET SPACE PROGRAM?" Casteel, co-author of new book, "THE SECRET SPACE PROGRAM WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?", interviewed Richard Dolan, who uses term "BREAKAWAY CIVILIZATION" to designate what he suspects is a group of humanity who appropriated secret technology for themselves. Dolan describes process in simple terms how this could happen: "'I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS REAL,' DOLAN SAID. 'NOW, MY THEORY OF IT IS THAT IT ORIGINATED IN REALLY IN POST-WORLD WAR II SOCIETY, BUT THERE'S NOTHING PREVENTING SUCH A THING FROM HAVING HAPPENED EARLIER. THE BASIC IDEA OF THE 'BREAKAWAY CIVILIZATION' IS SIMPLY THAT YOU HAVE A SECRET GROUP, A CLASSIFIED GROUP OF PEOPLE, WITH ACCESS TO RADICALLY ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, RADICALLY ADVANCED SCIENCE, AND THEY JUST DON'T SHARE IT WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD...' THIS IS ALSO MESSAGE OF PRESENT BOOK CO-AUTHORED WITH TIMOTHY GREEN BECKLEY, TIM R SCHWARTZ AND COMMANDER X..."A SECRET SOCIETY CONSISTING OF SCIENTISTS OF VARIOUS DISCIPLINES HAVE BANDED TOGETHER TO CREATE THE MEANS OF OUR TRAVELING TO BOTH THE MOON AND MARS AND CONSTRUCTING ARTIFICIAL BUILDINGS, EVEN LITERAL LIFE-SUPPORTING BASES OF OPERATION, FOR WHATEVER PURPOSE."
Casteel also suggests case of Gary McKinnon lends support when "...the Scottish-born computer hacker who in the thirteen months between February 2001 to March 2002 hacked into 97 US military and NASA computers, using the name 'Solo,"'" to view documents that seem to fit only a secret program. McKinnon revealed in the past, he found lists of officer names under heading of "NON-TERRESTRIAL OFFICERS," and from article: "I FOUND A LIST OF 'FLEET-TO-FLEET' TRANSFERS AND A LIST OF SHIP NAMES. I LOOKED THEM UP. THEY WEREN'T US NAVY SHIPS. WHAT I SAW MADE ME BELIEVE THEY HAVE SOME KIND OF SPACESHIP, OFF-PLANET..IN A LATER INTERVIEW WITH THE BBC, MCKINNON ALSO CLAIMED THAT 'THERE ARE SOME VERY CREDIBLE, RELIABLE PEOPLE ALL SAYING THAT YES, THERE IS UFO TECHNOLOGY, THERE'S ANTI-GRAVITY, THERE'S FREE ENERGY, AND IT IS EXTRATERRESTRIAL IN ORIGIN. THEY'VE CAPTURED A SPACECRAFT AND REVERSE-ENGINEERED IT.'."IF MCKINNON'S CLAIMS ABOUT NASA AND THE US NAVY ARE TRUE, THEY MAY SERVE AS CONCRETE PROOF OF SOME OF THE MYTHOLOGY THAT HAS GROWN UP AROUND THE BELIEF IN A SECRET SPACE PROGRAM," concludes Casteel. Rightfully So. The high Pentagon interest in McKinnon exposes real importance of what was seen on their computers. McKinnon may even know more than publicly shared? A previous entry on McKinnon provides additional details HERE. Richard Dolan shares his view on "BREAKAWAY CIVILIZATION." Ground Zero Live host, CLYDE LEWIS, DISCUSSED SAUCERS AND BREAKAWAY CIVILIZATION WITH CO-AUTHORS BECKLEY AND SCHWARTZ this past week in an excellent program! The present writer can only agree and wish we knew more about a breakaway civilization!

This Spooky Friday we have Chupacabra! Well not really, it's fake but still I think it's a pretty good attempt at a fake Chupacabra video.
Chupacabras en moreno.
There are some very good scary videos out there, like this one that most people have probably seen of the Ghostly Hitchhiker. I always avoided watching it because it was so long, each time I attempted to watch it I would cancel it but I watched it the whole way through today and it is very creepy.
Hitchhiker Ghost.
Most videos that I watch on the net with a paranormal theme seem to end up like the two above, either artificial or very well made with a good amount of suspense and a descent story to tell. Very few videos seem to be genuine but I'm still gonna try and find the best out there.

A California witness at Boyle Heights reported watching a boomerang-shaped UFO that looked like a "creature" when turned on its side as observed beginning about 4:50 p.m. on January 7, 2015, according to testimony in Case 62515 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
"Parked car in front of my home and my younger son was outside of the car and looked up said, 'What is that?'" the reporting witness stated.
The son then went inside to get his binoculars.
"I looked up from inside the car and saw something dark/black up in the sky to the southwest. My son looked through binoculars and said it looks really weird. I looked through the binoculars and it was solid black - some sort of UFO - an upside down boomerang. Not moving."
The witnesses' two daughters also looked through the binoculars and saw it as well.
"My older daughter tried to take a picture with her camera, but it is not a good camera for that height. I got the binoculars again to observe it a while and it slowly turned to its side and it did not like a UFO, but maybe a creature/alien?"
The witness described the object as it looked from the side.
"It had a wispy tail-like and wispy wings, but not wings - slow moving tentacles/arms - very hard to describe, but it is not like anything I've ever seen."
The witness then showed the object to the other children.
"The thin arms/wispy tentacles moved in different forward directions. I just watched it for a while. Two planes did pass not too far from it, so it appeared to be the size of a huge airplane. Then I had to leave. I was late to meet a friend and left at 5:29 p.m. It was still up in the sky when I left."...

Plenty of Norwegians thought aliens had taken a fancy to their country back in the 1950s thanks to a slew of inexplicable UFO sightings. Inexplicable no more: It was the CIA, reports the BBC. Actually, it was the CIA itself that fessed up in this tweet, which reads in part, "Remember reports of unusual activity in the skies in the '50s? That was us." It then provides a government writeup about the sightings, which weren't caused by alien spaceships but by U2 spy planes being tested. The planes flew above 60,000 feet, which wasn't thought possible at the time, so commercial pilots who saw something so far above them couldn't explain it. The effect was more pronounced at different times of the day and night, and if the U2 planes caught the rays of the sun just right, even people on the ground would see silvery glints of light. The explanation was kept classified for decades, notes the BBC, picking up on a report in the foreign-language "Aftenposten".
