UFO or unknown aircraft?

So many reports of UFOs - are all these reports relating to currently unknown aircraft or are they alien visitors? Jury's OUT!
College physics teacher describes close encounter with silent triangle UFO
A California college physics teacher watched a triangle-shaped UFO that came within several hundred feet and then silently moved away at 9 p.m. on April 15, 2010, in Ventura, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

The instructor first heard a screech sound, then watched the object move quickly across the sky.

"At first it looked like it was a large bird high in the air as the front and two sides were heavily darkened against the mostly dark sky," the witness stated. "It was moving toward me and over a period of about 2 seconds it became clearer and resembled a hang-glider. It was descending and moving toward the east and seemed to be gliding smoothly, making no sound that I could hear."

UFOs: The Secret Evidence

Great documentary by defence journalist Nick Cook where he investigates the best UFO stories and asks what can be explained away by science - and what defies any rational explanation.
I found this programme extremely interesting as it offers, in my opinion, a balanced & rational exploration of the UFO phenomena. Whilst watching I admit to a growing sense of frustration, not concerning UFO stories, but with the governments' control over the populace. Lots of misinformation ( another term for lies and deceit). Following viewing I now believe that many sightings, reports, experiences can be laid at the door of natural phenomenon or covert air-force exercises. SOME reports however to-date defy rational or scientific explanation. It is a must see for all those interested in this subject matter!

Luminous Entity Spreads Panic Among Bus Passengers In Chile

The sighting of a luminous being on the shore of the region of Tarapacá caused panic among passengers of an intercity bus from Iquique to Santiago de Chile.

The brush with the paranormal took place at 5 a.m. on March 1st 2010, when the passenger bus made a stop along Route A-1, linking from Iquique to Tocopila near the Vicente Mena Beach, between Punta Gruesa and Chucumata.

At that point, one of the female passengers began mumbling in her sleep: “They’re there, outside, they’re here,” creating expectation among her fellow bus passengers. She was wakened by one of her travelling companions. Once awake, the woman reacted as she looked outside the bus, seeing a fluorescent cylindrical structure in the sea. She began screaming and and causing alarm among the other passengers.

Collective panic gripped the passengers at this point, who after a few seconds “claimed having seen a top-shaped spacecraft emerging from the sea”, according to researcher Raul Rivera.

When everyone inside the bus calmed down and endeavored to photograph the luminous structures with their cellphones, the consternation and screams made an encore. “A being standing approximately 3 meters tall, thin and with impressive flashes of light, began walking toward the highway,” explained Rivera, stating that the case is being rigorously investigated in Santiago.

Once in Santiago, those involved went their separate ways, “making the investigation a difficult undertaking,” according to Enrique Silva, one of the two persons in charge of the process. He says that until now “only eight eyewitness accounts exist – a paltry sum, considering that an inter-city bus generally transports between 30 and 40 passengers.”

The identities of these eight witnesses is being kept in complete secrecy while future eyewitness accounts are sought, and the investigation can truly be finalized.

One of the open issues of this sighting is that neither the bus driver nor his assistant can be found. This has only served to stoke expectations, as some witnesses claim that the driver’s assistant took photos and videos of the encounter.

A long weekend with the son of God

Easter time is once again upon us. A "fitting" time to watch a documentary about Jesus Vissarion who leads some 4,000 people who’ve all come together in the Siberian town of Minusinsk, looking for something…is he the Messiah?
The Second Coming of Christ is the return of Jesus Christ from Heaven to Earth as expected in most Christian eschatologies. The anticipated event is predicted in biblical Messianic prophecy.
Sergei Torop hasn’t always been Jesus; he once worked as a policeman & first realised he was destined to be something akin to the messiah when he developed an interest that bordered on obsession with UFOs.
His followers live in what can only be described as a "hippy" commune delighting in mother earth & the fact that Jesus is literally among them. Watching it rekindled memories of the "flower power" era for me but I am getting a bit long in the tooth!
I imagine that the community and fellowship not only fulfills biblical prophecies for some, but also bridges the gap between the relatively new found democracy and the old communist regime.
Whatever the reason for this groups existence it is worth a view, that's if you're interested in Jesus, of course!

UFO mothership releasing orbs filmed in Japan

Hi
Interesting article by Michael Cohen m.cohen@allnewsweb.com, concerning an astonishing piece of footage showing what might be a 'mothership' UFO releasing orbs or smaller UFOs was filmed by a witness to the event in Japan.

This UFO sighting took place earlier this month and the footage has been posted on the Internet in the last few days.

Nothing is known of the identity of the witness nor the exact location of the event beyond the country it occurred in.

Early last year footage of a similar event, this one occurring in Mexico and publicised by world renown Mexican ufologist Jaime Maussan, made big news across the many UFO related websites on the Internet.

Bigfoot researcher gets candid

GREENSBURG, PA - The Uniontown UFO-Bigfoot account from October 25, 1973 is one of the most fascinating paranormal investigations of the 20th century. Multiple witnesses reported observing a UFO land on a farm - and soon after - two Bigfoot creatures were seen nearby. Additional witnesses recount the glowing piece of land where the craft came down and other paranormal phenomena. Investigator George Lutz reflects back on the 35th anniversary in this firsthand video account of what happened that night.

UFO

A UFO streaks through the sky in this astonishing video of the Iranians test firing a controversial missile.

The mystery object zooms unseen through Iran's airspace — before splitting a cloud in two as the film focuses in on the soaring rocket.

A UFO expert today described the unknown craft — which appears to be tracking the weapon — as "phenomenal".

Iran launched two short-range missiles last Saturday — angering the West and Israel.

A US report on Fox News revealed the UFO in footage of the second launch.

The video shows the Shahab-3 rocket soaring into the sky.

But after 38 seconds a nearby cloud is mysteriously torn in two by a flying object travelling at speed.



What do you think?
UFO or turbulence caused by the missile?,

UFOs Visit Wales

Hi

Whitley Strieber's , author known for his horror genre novels, "The Wolfen" and "The Hunger" has written an interesting article on UFOs recently:
Today I saw in Unknowncountry's Out There section a witness report that suggests that on July 10, the military shot at UFOs that appeared over Fort Lewis, Washington.
That the US military has done so in the past is now a matter of public record, since the British Ministry of Defence released records indicating that the US Air Force attempted to shoot down a UFO over Surrey in May of 1956. The pilot involved, Dr. Milton Torres, now lives in Florida and has confirmed that he did indeed receive such an order, in fact, before he even took off, so eager was the Air Force to carry out this extraordinary act on behalf of the human species, but without our knowledge.
For those interested read on..................

I was particularly interest in this phrase: "We have reached a point of no return. Our species is going to experience the total collapse of its planetary environment." Why? because I had just finished reading another article in our local paper about UFO reports here in Wales

Powys X-files revealed

The on - line article describes the most recent sightings etc. It does not however, include all the newspaper article and the paragraph that struck me most was "another witness form North Wales, claims he has been in contact with beings not of this world. The message from these beings, "mankind must STOP its relentless pursuit of material gain and its favourite past time of tribal warfare and work for the unification of all nations, work in harmony with the planet and its life forms"

Whether these reports are accurate is up to the individual reader's perspective
What is REAL is the concept that we humans are moving head - long into total DEVASTATION
So when you're next travelling to the out of town "shopping centres" that have infested our western society take time out to peer upward towards the heavens. You never know you may see a UFO!!

What do you think. Are we living in a time of "hell on earth" ?

The Flatwoods Monster

Interesting article curtesy of Moonlight Investigation

Flatwoods, Braxton County in West Virginia, is a small village which advertises itself as "The Home Of The Green Monster". Who was the Green Monster?

September 12th 1952, 7:15pm. Three boys Edward (13) and Fred May (12), and their friend Tommy Hyer (10) were playing football on a school playground when they spotted something in the sky.

It was a bright object streaking through the sky until it appeared to land/crash on a hilltop of the nearby Bailey Fisher farm. The boys ran back to Edward and Fred's house and related the story to their mother Kathleen May. She agreed to accompany them to the hill with torchlights and brought with her Neil Nunley (14) Ronnie Shaver (10), and 17 year old West Virginia National Guardsman Eugene Lemon. Lemon also brought his dog.

As the 8 of them drew close to the site of the crash, Lemon's dog ran ahead. Just out of sight they heard it barking at something unknown before it came running back with it's tail between it's legs.

As the first two boys, including Neil Nunley, crested the hill the object seemed to crash into, they saw a pulsating red light some way in the distance. Before they could react to that (and before they could wonder what that pungent smelling mist that was burning their eyes was), Lemon spotted two shining eyes under an oak tree and turned the flashlight towards them.

There standing before them was a 10 foot tall creature, with a round red face with a "Ace of Spades" shaped frill around it. The body seemed dark, although it later was described as "green" hence the town's name for the beast. When the creature began to "glide" towards them, Lemon dropped the flashlight and the group fled.

The authorities were called. First the police. Then the local newspaper. I'm pleased to see Mrs May had her priorities straight. If I'd just seen a 10 foot monster my first few phone calls would not have included the local rag, but probably the fire brigade, the Army, perhaps even the RNLI. But really, the local rag??

Strangely on separate checks that evening the Sheriff and his deputy found nothing unusual whilst Mr. A. Lee Stewert, co-owner of the Braxton Democrat, found "a sickening, burnt, metallic odor still prevailing". Funny that.

Further reports came in:

At 6:30 the next morning, the director of the Board of Education saw a flying saucer take off, not far from his house, and immediately reported it to the Sutton newspaper. Only then was he informed of the happening of the night before. Mr. Stewart, the owner of the paper, immediately went to the hill and could still smell the odor on the ground. He discovered two tracks where the reported object had landed. No wagon had been in this part for many years and the weeds were several feet high. The grass was freshly depressed, and closer search disclosed a piece of black plastic material which did not burn when tested by Stewart. The piece has been analyzed and we hope to get a report soon through Mr. Smith. Samples of ground and vegetation were also collected by airforce [sic] officers.

Further inquiries at the Lemon house revealed that Mrs. Lemon and a friend were having coffee at the time of the landing, and their house shook so violently that coffee spilled over the table and they thought the house had fallen off its foundation. The radio went off for 45 minutes and came back on by itself.

In his systematic questioning of everyone in the valley, Smith found that a girl, 21, of Weston, 11 miles from the Lemon farm, was confined in the Clarksburg Hospital for three weeks, after having seen a figure of the same description, and emitting the same odor reported by witnesses of the Sutton occurrence. Her mother confirmed the girl's story that they had seen the monster when they were on their way to church more than a week before Mrs. May's experience. Source: CSI Bulletin #2



What I find so fascinating about all this is that an entire mythology has grown up on this monster based on a fleeting glance of it, and that these folks were willing to go on record claiming it to be a monster based on nothing more that a few moments of contact.

Lost City of Atlantis

A "grid of streets" on the seabed at one of the proposed locations of the lost city of Atlantis has been spotted on Google Ocean.
The network of criss-cross lines is 620 miles off the coast of north west Africa near the Canary Islands on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean.

The perfect rectangle – which is around the size of Wales – was noticed on the search giant's underwater exploration tool by an aeronautical engineer who claims it looks like an "aerial map" of a city.

The underwater image can be found at the co-ordinates 31 15'15.53N 24 15'30.53W.

Last night Atlantis experts said that the unexplained grid is located at one of the possible sites of the legendary island, which was described by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato.

According to his account, the city sank beneath the ocean after its residents made a failed effort to conquer Athens around 9000 BC.

Famous LIFE Photographers' Roswell Crash Revelation by Anthony Bragalia

Anthony Bragalia offers us the following information on the famed Life magazine photographer Allan Grant Mr Grant may have provided to us his greatest "picture" just before he died. The cameraman's portrait of the Roswell crash in 1947 illustrates that the event that summer was of urgent importance to the military. It also shows that the sky-fallen object was in fact of a genuine "unknown."

With his passing last year, Allan Grant has been rightly elevated to legendary status in the world of journalistic photography. For decades Mr. Grant was a permanent member of the prestigious Life photographic staff. He captured on film some of the most recognizable images in history. Grant's legacy includes such memorable work as the first-ever public picture of Lee Harvey Oswald's wife Marina (taken after Lee's capture) to the haunting, last-ever picture of Marilyn Monroe. His work's "movie still" clarity, his many Life cover shots and his photographic studies were a gift left to all of us.

But Allan's best chronicle was left before he died- and surpasses any captured image of a politician or an entertainer that he ever took. His greatest gift to history was his revelation that he was involved in the Roswell saga- and his confirmation that what crashed in New Mexico those many years ago was not of a balloon or a secret aircraft experiment, but of an Unidentified Flying Object!

Doesn't the passing of time change our history?

Do Aliens Prefer Wales?

A recent article in my local newspaper reminded me of accounts and reports, concerning UFO sightings, which appear to be escalating lately
The article actually discussed the issue of the "hum" that also appears to be growing
For those that have not heard of the "hum" it's all about a noise( frequency 36 Hz) that appears to be heard by some but not others
Local towns people and villagers had contacted the paper to report on their discomfort concerning this annoying noise and to ask whether anyone else had heard it
It turns out that within a 30 mile radius there are at least three reports of areas that have to contend with "the hum". I await the next issue of the paper to find out how many further reports have been acknowledged
Quote taken from "The Saga of the Hum"
The first report of mass complaints came in the mid 1960's it covered all parts of the UK but a large number was concentrated in the Bristol area where it attained world wide reputation as the Bristol Hum. A group of Hum sufferers organised a committee and travelled to London University where an investigation into the phenomena was being carried out. On their return to Bristol the group contacted the local authority and Bristol Member of Parliament Arthur Palmer and persuaded them to investigate the matter. Arthur Palmer and the investigating team finally claimed to have traced the source and stopped the Hum, however, the authority refused to reveal the source saying "we have stopped it, be satisfied with that"
I have a theory - just a theory you understand. What if the recognition of the "hum" is tied into, in some way, with the recent increase in sightings of UFO's in the same areas?
I have listened to at least two first hand accounts of UFO sightings in this area in the last 2 months. Others say they actually saw the crafts hover over a well - known town just 5 miles away from the "hum" report areas, although they do not wish to be named!
Have you experienced the "hum"?
Have you seen a UFO?
Love to hear from you if you have even if you don't live in Wales

NASA offers fellowships to search for aliens

Daniel Trotta, Reuters
Published: Friday, September 05, 2008
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, famous for its manned missions to the moon, announced the creation of the Carl Sagan Postdoctoral Fellowships in Exoplanet Exploration on Wednesday.

The fellowship is named after the late astronomer who popularized science through his books and television appearances.

The fellows will search for life on planets outside our solar system, the so-called exoplanets, more than 300 of which have been discovered since 1994.

READ ON..................

"We're learning an enormous amount," said Charles Beichman, director of NASA's Exoplanet Science Institute. "We know the rate of star formation. Ten years ago, we didn't know about the fraction of stars with planets. Now we know . . . 10 per cent have Jupiters and in a few years we'll know about Earths.

"How many of those worlds have life? That's a slightly longer-term question, but is absolutely something that 21st century science can accomplish," he said.

Now that's an attitude thats more like it!!!!!!!!!!!!

TV Crew Films Real Monster Movie

Sweden's equivalent of the Loch Ness monster has apparently been captured on film by a TV crew
Watch and see what you think?
An expedition searching for a sea monster in a Swedish lake has reported promising findings. Tony Samstag reports

Almost everybody has heard about Scotland's Loch Ness monster, also known as Nessie. Fewer, I think it is safe to say, are acquainted with Thelma, the Norwegian equivalent; or, right next door, the Swedish variant, which is so elusive as to have not yet acquired a nickname.
A group of filmmakers claim to have successfully captured Sweden’s legendary Great Lake Sea Monster (Storsjöodjuret), which is said to lurk in the waters of the Storsjön outside Östersund in northern Sweden.
A film crew which set up cameras on one of the lake’s islets last spring now say that they have an image of the seamonster, according to Svergies Television.

The film clip shows a blurry, long and narrow silhouette moving in the lake’s depths.

“It clearly shows that it’s warm and is made up of cells, otherwise our cameras wouldn’t indicate red, so it can be a sea snake or some other kind of sea animal,” said a female member of the film crew to Sveriges Television news in Jämtland.

The effort to find the monster has generated a great deal of interest, with the American television network NBC planning to document the hunt.

Next summer, the number of special cameras placed in the lake will increase to thirty.

This isn’t the first time that crews have hunted for the Great Lake Sea Monster.

Back in 1894, a Swedish sea captain named Dedering created a stock company with the express purpose of catching the renowned beast.

The hunt, which was also sponsored in part by King Oscar II, even featured whale harpooners.

In 1986, Jämtland’s county administrative board banned anyone from “killing, injuring, or trapping a live animal such as the Great Lake Sea Monster” or from “removing or injuring the Great Lake Sea Monster’s eggs, roe, or dwelling”.

Read what Jonathan Downes, a cryptozoologist has to say on the subject of the Lochness monster and Bigfoot
Quote "The problem is that in the public eye the things that we are looking for have been put one the same shelf as the lunatic fringe, as the ghosts, the UFOs and the people who believe that Elvis is still alive and working in Walmart," he told Radio 4’s Today programme".
Personally I find that statement rather insulting, but I respect freedom of speech!

UFO sightings in UK this year reach 150

Hi
So far this year 150 apparent 'flying saucers' have been reported to police, military bases and the Ministry of Defence, compared to just 135 for the whole of 2007, and 97 the year before.

The figures, released after a request under the Freedom of Information Act, suggest that 2008 will be a bumper year for alien activity.

Malcolm Robinson, founder of the research group Strange Phenomena Investigations said: "Something really bizarre is happening in the skies over the UK.

"I've been dealing in sightings for 30 years and we currently have something very real which mankind cannot explain."

A spokesman for the MoD said as long as sightings presented no threat to British airspace, they were not investigated further. The MoD remained 'open-minded' about aliens, he added.

Earlier this summer, recent sightings were plotted on a map of Britain. They stretched from Liverpool to Dover and from Llanelli to Derby.

Among mysterious flying objects spotted in recent months was a 'glowing' disc spotted above the M5 motorway.

Royal Navy aircraft engineer Michael Madden said he watched the UFO for three minutes before it 'zoomed off' near Weston-super-Mare in Somerset.

Earlier, in Basingstoke, witnesses claimed to have seen a fleet of 12 orange objects in the night sky for half an hour.

And in St Athan in the Vale of Glamorgan a police helicopter crew gave chase to another UFO after it appeared to veer at speed towards their aircraft.

One UFO spotter however was left red-faced after his report of a mysterious flying saucer in South Wales turned out to be nothing more other-worldly than the moon.

UFO sited in WALES

Hi

Just had to post about this: A UFO reported over the country of my birth!
The Telegraph reports
A police helicopter crew gave chase to a UFO after it almost collided with their aircraft near a military base.
The pilot was forced to bank sharply to avoid being hit by the mystery aircraft as the helicopter was returning to the Ministry of Defence base of St Athan, near Cardiff.

The three crew, who described the UFO as 'flying saucer-shaped', then gave chase, getting as far as the North Devon coast before they ran low on fuel, it was reported.

The police aircraft was hovering at 500ft and waiting clearance to land on June 7, when those onboard spotted the other craft hurtling towards them from below.

A spokesman for South Wales Police said: "We can confirm the Air Support Unit sighted an unusual aircraft. This was reported to the relevant authorities for their investigation."

It was reported that the aircraft closed in at great speed, aiming straight for the helicopter which swerved sharply.

"They are convinced it was a UFO. It sounds far-fetched, but they know what they saw."

The helicopter crew are said to have crossed the Bristol channel in pursuit of the UFO, but lost sight of it and had to turn back due to a fuel shortage.

The sighting comes weeks after the most comprehensive Government files on UFO activity are opened to the public for the first time today and they disclose that even air traffic controllers and police officers have seen mysterious craft in the skies over Britain.

The sightings range from incredible tales of little green men visiting the Wirral to corroborated accounts from policemen and pilots of Unidentified Flying Objects hovering above towns and cities.

All were recorded on official forms, held by air bases and police stations, and compiled by the Ministry of Defence between 1978 and 2002.

I have spoken to many friends and collegues over the years that have also spotted UFOs, generally over the more unpopulated areas of this vast land

Get in touch anyone who has similar experiences

Files Released on UFO Sightings

Hi
Secret files on UFO sightings have been made available for the first time by the Ministry of Defence.

The documents, which can be downloaded from the National Archives website, cover the period from 1978 to 1987.

They include accounts of strange lights in the sky and unexplained objects being spotted by the public, armed forces and police officers.

One man explained in great detail his "physical and psychic contact" with green aliens since he was a child.

The writer said that one of them, called Algar, was killed in 1981 by another race of beings as he was about to make contact with the UK
Check out the BBC website for a full report

I for one watched the news report with avid interest and I'm afraid to say not surprised by the attitude of the news editors in conveying the article in a derogotory way! Apparantly most of the reports had not been followed up or investigated due to either a lack of nterest or a lack of man power - SHAME!
