Malta Mysteries

This week’s Files report: Elongated skulls found in Temples in Malta, Mars Phoenix Spacecraft Lands near North Pole on May 25, 2008, and Mysterious Red Cells Might Be Aliens.

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena were spotted over: California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, New Mexico, Virginia, and Washington. UFOs were also seen in Canada, Peru, Venezuela, and the UK.

These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over one hundred UFOs reported each week represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. It is my belief that God has spread intelligent civilizations throughout the universe and his messengers flew UFOs.

MALTA – Cone Head Race Alien Sapien

Italian writer Adriano Forgione has investigated a cone head or dolichocephaly race on the Mediterraen island of Malta. The cone head or elongated skulls found in Maltese temple-tombs are similar to those found in Peru and studied by Dr. Von Tschudi. The”oldest city in the Americas,” is “a massive 4,600-year-old urban center called Caral” in Peru (L.A. Times, 27 April 2001). Maltese cone head skulls are dated from 4100 B.C.-2500 B.C., that is several hundred years later.

We also find cone heads dolicho-head peoples in ancient Sumer/Akkad (Iraq). Six kilometers east of Mosul, in northern Iraq, is the ancient site of Tell Arpachiyah. In 1933, Max Mallowan excavated numerous graves of two neolithic cultures: the Halaf and al’Ubaid. “These date from approximately 4600 B.C and 4300 B.C, respectively.

Discoveries in Maltese temple-tombs at Taxien, Ggantja and Hal Saflieni pose challenges to evolutionary reasoning of “racial” dispersal. The disproof is every bit as penetrating as those demanded by Peruvian data. Not only is this race very different than homo-sapiens (humans) but they appeared in the Americas, Africa, the Middle East. This race apparently had the ability to travel great distances and set up colonies and civilizations throughout the world with very advanced technology.

Hal Saflieni

The archeology and religious and cultural history of Malta is generally accepted among scholars. So, a reasonably estimated age can be deduced for these skulls. The Maltese skulls were mostly found interred in Mother Goddess temple-tombs of goddess worship. On Malta and its sister island Gozo there are temples, where priests surrounded the goddess who had healing abilities as a direct expression of her divinity. It is well known that, in antiquity, the serpent was associated to the goddess and to healing capacities. The finding of these skulls in and near the temples implies direct links between the sacred mystery cults and the dolicho-cone head race. The construction techniques are also similar to those in Egypt and Peru. We have a situation where cavemen homo sapiens were very primitive making stone tools and suddenly in various far flung parts of the world inhabitants with unusually large skulls start building huge temples and pyramids. Many of the structures were underground and carved in stone. Ancient texts explain these are gods who came from space.

Carved and polished stone at Hal Tarxian Neolithic Temple

Humans tried to copy their large cone heads by taping the heads of their babies. Maltese temples and tombs were megalithic evidence that they “were in part inspired from the centers of civilization” off the islands. Thus, we have another developmental correlation: a relationship between a possible elite dolichocephalous race, and megalithic building skills, during an earliest historical epoch.

Dolichocephalic cone heads do not fit well into the evolutionary “missing link” explanation of Darwin’s theory so they have been largely ignored. Dolichocephalic heads infer a larger brain size with increased mental capacity compared to the average homo-sapiens. Hundreds of thousands of skeleton remains have been found with the elongated heads. They do not seem to be related to apes so we can assume they had other biological origins. There is the possibility that they came from space as described in numerous ancient texts.

As in Peru, Maltese excavations have yielded three classes of skull anomalies:
Of course, it’s no coincidence that Malta is nearby the heartland of the oldest, most mega-lithic of all stone work, Baalbek; Lebanon, and not far from ancient Egypt and Samaria..

In addition to the highly pronounced elongation often referred to as cone heads; they also lack the median knitting,”8 or suture, linking bones in the roof of the skull. A significant proportion of “7,000 skeletons dug out of the Hal Saflieni subterranean tomb exhibit “artificially performed deformities. The tombs or temples worshiped a megalithic goddess. If “an actual race” can be established in Malta – other humans without the cone heads apparently wanted to be like them and attempted to mimic the true Maltese cone heads who were the leaders and priests. This is similar to the role pharaohs, and kings in Egypt, Sumer, and Peru.

The reading of books about the Maltese discoveries inspired Adriano Forgione in his research. The authors are Maltese doctors named Dr. Anton Mifsud and Dr. Charles Savona Ventura. Forgione went to Malta, and these doctors helped him confirm details of Maltese dolichocephaly. Also, Forgione worked with Maltese archeologists Mark Anthony Mifsud and Anthony Buonanno who state, “The skeletons are another race although C-14 or DNA exams haven’t yet been performed.” Mark Anthony Mifsud is reportedly a museum archeologist at the Maltese Archeological Museum of the Valletta. This is where Maltese dolicho-skulls were housed. Forgione reports that in 1985, this museum removed the remarkable specimens from public display? Thanks to Adriano Forgione

Mars Phoenix Spacecraft Lands near North Pole

PASADENA, Calif. — NASA’s Phoenix spacecraft landed in the northern polar region of Mars on May 25, 2008, to begin three months of examining a site chosen for its likelihood of having frozen water within reach of the lander’s robotic arm.

Strange light Y rock found near Phoenix

Radio signals received at 4:53:44 p.m. Pacific Time confirmed the Phoenix Mars Lander had survived its difficult final descent and touchdown 15 minutes earlier. The signals took that long to travel from Mars to Earth at the speed of light. Mission team members at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.; Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver; and the University of Arizona, Tucson, cheered confirmation of the landing and eagerly awaited further information from Phoenix. The first landscape photo showed a strange light colored Y shaped rock in an open field. The Phoenix is expected to find proof of water on Mars. Thanks to NASA

King George saw UFOs in 1783

ENGLAND –The scientist Tiberius Cavallo was a witness to a sighting that also stunned Royal guests at a celebration to mark the birth of the 15th son of King George 111 and Queen Charlotte! A luminous object appeared from beneath a cloud and soon became brilliantly lit before coming to a halt. According To Cavallo”s account of the incident: “This strange sphere seemed at first to be pale blue in colour, but its luminosity increased and soon it set off again towards the east.” Even though the sun was shining the object is said to have lit up everything on the ground and eventually disappeared with a terrific explosion!
N. Chandra Wickramasinghe and Panspermia

Sri Lankan astronomer who has made contributions to the theory of cosmic dust and is a leading advocate of the panspermia hypothesis. In 1974 Wickramasinghe proposed that dust in interstellar space and in comets was largely organic – an idea that now has wide observational support. A long-time colleague of the late Fred Hoyle, Wickramasinghe is currently Professor of Applied Mathematics and Astronomy at Cardiff University of Wales and Director of the Cardiff Centre for Astrobiology. Wickramasinghe and Hoyle began arguing for a modern version of panspermia in the mid-1970s. The first identification of organic polymers in interstellar grains was made by Wickramasinghe in 19741 and the first association of a biopolymer with interstellar dust was made by Hoyle and Wickramasinghe in 19772. However, his claims to have recovered organisms of extraterrestrial origin from the stratosphere and that some global outbreaks of disease, including ‘flu epidemics and possibly SARS, are caused by viruses from space have met with some skepticism.

Mysterious Red Cell May be Alien

Periodically strange rains and dust fall on Earth and scientists have yet to identify these unusual red particles that fell on India several years ago. As bizarre as it may seem, the sample jars brimming with cloudy, reddish rainwater in Godfrey Louis’s laboratory in southern India may hold, aliens. Specifically, Louis has isolated strange, thick-walled, red-tinted cell-like structures about 10 microns in size. Stranger still, dozens of his experiments suggest that the particles may lack DNA yet still reproduce plentifully, even in water superheated to nearly 600 degrees Fahrenheit . (The known upper limit for life in water is about 250 degrees Fahrenheit .)

So how to explain them? Louis speculates that the particles could be extraterrestrial bacteria adapted to the harsh conditions of space and that the microbes hitched a ride on a comet or meteorite that later broke apart in the upper atmosphere and mixed with rain clouds above India.

ANAHEIM – On February 27, 2008, I captured this strange object that looks like a floating light pole or experimental camera. Thanks to MUFON CMS

SAN JACINTO MOUNTAINS – At approximately 3:00 PM on May 13, 2008, I was awakened by bright, white light in the sky over the San Jacinto mountains (my bed faces west to the San Jacinto mountains). At the top of the mountain, there was a large white, egg-shaped object that was illuminated with bright, white light. As I watched the object (in shock!), it hovered in the same position for a while near the top of the mountain, then darted west over and behind the mountain. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research.

MANHATTAN BEACH — The video was taken with my cell phone from my home balcony at 7:17 PM, on April 28, 2008. I have lived with an ocean view in North Manhattan Beach for 15 years. Los Angeles Airport is 2 miles to the north. What I saw was an opaque triangle structure that was letting NO light through. It was casting very straight line shadows onto the other clouds to the East of it. This was very strange. It looked better in person. However, in the video I have attached the light from the sun setting is being altered at the bottom of the triangle. You can see a very solid horizontal line parallel to the water above the sun setting. It also looked as if something was cloaking (cloud) in the top right of the triangle. Slow it down and speed it up. The video does show what I saw: A huge opaque triangle over Los Angeles. If you fiddle with the contrast and color, you can see it a little better. If you have video enhancing software to play with the video to bring out the triangle ship, I would appreciate a copy. I know I saw something! Maybe someone else did too?
Comments: I am not able to discern the triangular shape of the object from the video. The video was taken with a cell phone camera so the resolution is low. However, given that the witness saw a triangle needs to be taken into account. The video does show an object between the witness and the sun that looks to be in a pattern of disappearing and reappearing. The object appears to be stationary during the time that the video was taken.

Update May 21, 2008: We received a comment that the object in the video was caused by blinded CCD image pixels of the video camera. It was stated that this happens if you take pictures against the sun or another high power light source.
UFOS Northwest Comment: The writer of the above comments may very well be right. However, it is important to remember that the witness saw an unusual triangular object and attempted to take a video. Therefore the object in the photo could very well be the object as seen by the witness. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Florida 3 Objects in a Triangle Formation

I always like going out on my deck in back of my house on cool clear nights to relax and watch for falling stars. And i saw a falling star about 12:05 AM, on May 27, 2008. Five minutes latter I saw the 3 objects in a triangle formation at a very high altitude. The sighting lasted about 20 to 25 sec…Just thought I would report this sighting in case anyone else in the area seen the same thing. It just could have been satellites it’s just that I never have seen them in a perfect formation like that. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois

Man Sees Bright Light “Turn on Dime
GLENDALE HEIGHTS –The witness called and said that he had just returned from work and noticed a bright whitish-blue light in the sky on May 14, 2008, between 11:30 PM and Midnight the light was flashing. Suddenly the light “turned on a dime,” reversed direction and sped off in the other direction. No sound was heard. The light changed color to yellow when it turned. The witness lost sight of the light when it moved behind a building. The light was about 1/15 the size of a full moon and larger than any stars.
Comments: The witness has described something in the sky that is quite unusual. He said that on many occasions he has seen regular aircraft and could always hear a sound. The abrupt turns, lack of sound, and unusual light emulation prompted him to file a report. Given available data I cannot identify this sighting.
Indiana Ball of Light

KOKOMO — I came to Kokomo, Indiana to attend my daughter’s graduation on May 15, 2008. The following night, we decided to go out and try to find a UFO since we had seen one Kokomo mall on April 17, 2008. We parked on Dixon Road at the corner of US 26, and off in the distance I saw a bright circular object that looked unusual at 9:30 p.m.. I had to work myself around the road blocks and then head out straight in its direction. I traveled about five miles and pulled off to the side on a county road grabbed our video camera and binoculars, and cybershot camera and started taking pictures. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Michigan Huge Ball Fades
GRAND RAPIDS – Taking my dog out I saw an object like a satellite heading from the western sky northeast on May 24, 2008, at 11:00 p.m. Suddenly it becomes a huge ball of light then turned very faint. It then changed direction 90 degrees heading northwest and faded slowly becoming very dim and disappeared. I went in to get my binoculars and scanning the sky to the west, slightly northwest of me was a stationary star like object that blinked red, blue, white green. Even with the naked eye you could see it blinking. I watched it about 10 minutes then went inside because of the mosquito’s.

Minnesota Photos

GROVE HEIGHTS — I just got up to walk out and have a smoke on May 22, 2008, at 4:09 AM, in a suburb of the Twin Cities. I looked up in the sky and saw a jet moving at a high rate of speed. Under a bright star just sitting there I noticed the brightest star next to the moon. Also I looked back at the other star after the jet moved away. At that point the light started to move also. First it started to go north then it stopped and started to go south. When it was under the bright star near the moon I took out my camera and tried to take a picture, but when I took picture it came out squiggly. Then all of a sudden this thing took off it appeared to go up at a very high rate of speed. This is something that I have never seen in my life. Then it was gone.

Comments: The witness clearly felt that he saw something unusual. The two photos taken don’t really show anything compelling. The photos either a captured a light source moving or the streaking was due to movement of the camera. The exposure was much longer in the first photo above. Apparently that is the reason for the light background. The photos were taken with a HP Photosmart R725 Digital camera (maximum resolution of 6.1 mega-pixels). Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

New Mexico Lights

MCINTOSH — On May 3, 2008, at 9 PM, I went outside to see if I could see the Trigo Fire that was burning 15-20 miles south of McIntosh, NM. I looked up above the fire area and saw a lot of colorful flashing lights. However, it moved really fast from one to 15 miles away. That was a long way over there. I went for my camera ( 5.1 mega-pixel Sony Cyber-shot W5 Digital camera) and took a lot of shots. One shot came out pretty good for that distance. I steadied the camera really well on top of the car on moon light setting. As for the colors you are probably not going to believe your eyes and the shape is not to be believed. It was there and I have the shot! In this case seeing is believing. This shot is one in a life time. The first shot was how it looked from that distance with my 3x lens out. It was a really clear night.

Comments: It is difficult to tell from the photos much information about the shape and movement of the lights. However, the witness said that he steadied the camera on his vehicle. If this is true, then the “light dispersion” would likely be due to movement of the lights. (Of course the lights would be the shape of the object if no movement occurred.)

New York Bright Orange Balls

ROCHESTER – On May 25, 2008, from 9:20 - 10:00 PM, I saw lights over the lake and this isn’t the first time. They are bright orange and they either fade away suddenly or seem to drop out of the sky into the water. You can tell they are definitely not flares nor are they boat or buoy lights. They hang around and it always baffles me that no one else seems to notice or pay attention to them as if they can’t see them or maybe they do and they just dismiss them. I have seen them a total of 10 times in the past year and there have been more them three witnesses with me at different times. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

MANHATTAN – In June of 2006, around 1:30 PM, on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, my girlfriend and I were lounging on the roof deck of our apartment building in lower Manhattan’s financial district. I was looking up at the crystal clear blue sky when I noticed a tiny silver round object hovering above. The object was at such a high altitude that it was hard to keep my eye on it. It moved slowly in a south-east direction but would stop and hover completely motionless every so often. I pointed it out to my girlfriend who found it hard to see at first because of the high altitude. She eventually saw it as well. We watched it for a little longer and eventually ignored it as it was hard to track with the naked eye. We are both professionals living and working in Manhattan and really have no reason to fabricate this story. Thanks to the New York State Director

Ohio Rainbow UFO

MARTINS FERRY — On Sunday May 18, 2008 at 7:17 PM thunderstorms and heavy rains were broken up by a double rainbow. This is not seen very often. I took some pictures of the rainbows. I didn’t see anything on the pictures until I downloaded them to my computer. The objects are very noticeable. It has no wings, emitted no sound, and has no lights. The fact that I caught them in the daytime is a plus. I will send the original photos as they came out of the camera. (Photo 917 was first and 917a was second.) The object was moving southeast. Most air traffic moves east to west over the river. At the most there were ten seconds between the pictures. The camera is a LG vx9900, 2.0 mega-pixels. The resolution is 1600×1200 which is the highest for this camera. Everyone that has seen these has an ” oh my god” answer. I do not have a good enough program to enlarge the object to properly identify what the object is. Could you write me back with a better analysis? I would appreciate it greatly.

Comments: The witness sent two photos. The first photo is posted above. The second photo shows the same object in a different position. Enlargement reveals a wingless object, but the object is too small or too far to determine any details. For this reason identification cannot be made. Our organization receives many photos whereby witnesses do not see anything until they download their photos to a computer. The photos were taken using a LG vx9900 cell phone camera (2.0 mega-pixel resolution). Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Oregon Photos

MCMINNVILLE — On May 11, 1950, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Trent in rural Oregon near McMinnville took two photos of a flying saucer which was hovering over his farm. The photos are considered some of the best ever taken of a UFO. The photos have been extensively analyzed by experts and are considered authentic. Suggested reading: The book titled “UFOs and The National Security State” by Richard Dolan has information about the Trent photos.

South Carolina Triangular UFO

SPARTANBURG — Last night, May 13, 2008, at around 11:30 pm EST, I was traveling home on US 29 AKA East Main St. Spartanburg S.C. with two of my employees. I own a commercial cleaning business this is my usual routine route every night. I saw an object which at first glance I thought was a low flying plane but the object was moving at a very low rate of speed. With my head hanging out of my window I gazed at the object for over a couple of minutes as I proceeded slowly down the road. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Virginia Surry County Nuclear Power Plant,

SURRY — NUFORC received a very interesting report on May 19, 2008 of a sighting of a strange disc allegedly seen in the vicinity of the Surry Nuclear Power Plant at 12:20 PM for 12-20 minutes. I was on my bicycle riding east on the Colonial Parkway (James City County) when I spotted an object over the James River, moving from east to west at a very slow speed. At first I thought it may have been a kite because it was a very windy day (the winds were gusting out of the SW at 20-30mph) and people do come out and fly their kites from the beaches when the winds are good. But when I came to an open spot in the road unobstructed by trees I stopped to get a better look and decided it was much too large to be a kite.
It is a about a mile across the channel to the Surry Station and what I saw appeared to be very near the station’s twin domes and it must have been at least as large as they are, and perhaps larger. Besides that the object was moving very slowly against the wind, and its upper surface caught the sunlight and reflected like a sheet of aluminum foil. Its underside was dark. This was definitely a flattened disk. And, because it was so windy it did not seem like a good day to take a blimp up. (And, with security so high these days it does not seem logical that anyone would be permitted to get that close to power station. I have seen military helicopters on training missions over the river, but even they keep a wide berth from the power plant.)

I have eliminated the possibility of helicopters and small aircraft because this object was hovering/drifting and appeared to be making a very leisurely circuit of the power plant. I walked down to water’s edge to see if I could get a better look, but without binoculars I couldn’t make out any other useful details. I watched it like this for a good 15-20 minutes. In that time it completely circled the station, moving against the wind. It appeared to correct its angle at times, very slowly rocking up and down. I then decided to hurry home, grab my binoculars and camera and see if I might get a better look. It took me about ten minutes to bike home from there and another fifteen to get back on the Parkway by car. But, by the time I returned to my original position the object was gone. I drove a few miles down the Parkway hoping that it might have drifted elsewhere, but the sky was empty except for a few white clouds. Now, I wish I had stayed until it left. It would have been interesting to see which way it went.

We had several communications with the witness, following receipt of his written report, and following our first telephone conversation with him. We are impressed with the thoroughness with which he has pursued an explanation for the sighting. We provide below one of his follow-up communiqués to our Center:

FOLLOW-UP COMMUNICATION – I called the Ft. Eustis Public Affairs Office and was told by a very helpful female officer that there are no Osprey flying out of Ft. Eustis at this time. She knew of none even being stationed at the base, though their fleet of SAR helicopters is slated to be replaced by Osprey at some future date. She then told me that she’d heard from some fellow soldiers that they’d seen what they thought was the Goodyear blimp flying near Patrick Henry Mall in Newport News. Could it have been a blimp, I wondered? I did not see any writing on its sides, but who knows, I might have missed it. I checked the online photos and I think that I would have seen those bold, yellow letters even from that distance. And, if it was a blimp, why would it be hanging out near a nuclear power plant?

I then called the Patrick Henry Mall management office and asked them what they knew of the Goodyear blimp being in their area and was told they’d heard nothing about it, and that their security personnel did not report seeing one. The spokesperson said that if the blimp had been in their area they would have known about it, because of the publicity it would have generated. I then tried to get in contact with Goodyear, but they, unfortunately do not have a contact phone number. I left them an email message.
The local police have no reports of UFOs over the river and were not interested in taking mine down. (I could hear the borderline ridicule in the dispatcher’s voice). Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.ufocenter.com

Washington Photo of Three UFOs

TROUT LAKE — On May 3, 2008, the witness took numerous photos between 3 and 4 PM. She feels compelled to take photos and later discoverd the objects while viewing the photos on her computer. Generally the objects show up in a small percentage of the photos that she takes. The above photos were taken from the James Gilliland Ranch in Trout Lake, Washington. This ranch is thought by many to be a “UFO Hotspot.” The witness discovers many conventional objects in her photos like birds, insects, helicopters, and air planes. Therefore she is not likely confusing these objects with conventional objects. (See website http://www.eceti.org. )

Comments: It appears that the objects in the above photos are metallic and are reflecting the sun which is to the right. If the objects were closer, perhaps an identification could be made. The objects to the left could be helicopters, but resolution is insufficient to make that determination. The witness took a photo 44 seconds after the above photo that showed a helicopter. None of the objects in this photo were in the subsequent photo. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Canada Flying Triangle

LAVAL, QUEBEC — I was talking on the phone and went outside to have a smoke on May 10 or 11, 2008 at midnight. I looked up at the sky and saw a triangle shape object with three white lights on each point of the triangle. I thought it was a jet or a plane at first but then it covered too much space in so little time. Something that would not be possible for a jet or plane. I would say that if I were to put my thumb in the air pointing in that direction the object covered a 6 foot distance (in comparison to my thumb) in less than half a second. It must have been about 30,000 feet high or so. Many planes pass over my house and this was definitely not a plane. I saw it heading northwest away from Laval. I am out every night with my binoculars and camcorder since then.

OSHAWA, ONTARIO — On Saturday, May 24, 2008, at about 6:30 PM, I was on my deck, cooking on the BQ. I felt the urge to look up in the sky to the west and then to the east. At that moment looking east of my position, I noticed, a long white/silver “wingless“ object moving across very high in the sky with a slight jerking motion heading towards Lake Ontario. I watched this missile like object move across the sky from north to south. I watched it for about 15 -20 seconds, as it moved further from my view. The conditions of the sky had a slight veil of cloud. Due to it’s altitude, I’m sure it passed over without anyone else detecting it. In truth, I’m a little freaked about the timing. It is very uncanny to witness a UFO, after feeling an urge to look up. I gather something’s going on in our skies. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Peru Photo

PIURA –This is J.G. (42), an English Teacher and coordinator of a UFO research group working in Piura, Peru. Our group, Proyecto UFO Piura, has been studying UFO activity in Piura for more than 18 years. Attached you will find a photo of a spacecraft filmed during our recent UFO observation camp, Saturday, April 19, 2008. This is the first time that we have been allowed (by them) to film one of our typical camps, especially the sightings that night.

The local press here covered the happening skeptically (check Diario Correo Digital Piura and look for Proyecto UFO Piura). It is hard for them to believe that Proyecto UFO attended a programmed UFO sighting in the middle of the desert between Piura and Paita, in the northern part of Peru. We have got the film and the photos taken from it. If you are interested in publishing the story and the images, please write to me, in English or Spanish.

Comments: Little is known about this photo or of the UFO study group that sent the photo. The photo is posted to show that sightings continue to occur around the world. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

UK/England - Oval Shaped Silver UFO

HYTHE KENT—On May 19, 2008, at 4 PM, while working outside I spotted a silver oval shaped object hovering in the sky below the clouds. I called my friend over to see what he thought. We agreed it was strange and watched it for a couple of minutes when all of a sudden it shot off at

BLACKLEY, MANCHESTER — On May 1, 2008, at 10:05 p.m., I saw two large green orbs flying northwest very low on the horizon at a 45 degree angle silent and stationary. Orbs faded out after 30 seconds or more. Then a brilliant white liquid light spilled out and down to the ground. It was ball shaped with a tail behind it. The area it would have landed in is around Heaton Park and Rhodes. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Venezuela Photo

VALENCIA — On May 25, 2008, in a Megadeth concert in the State of Carabobo I took some photos of two unidentified flying objects. I did not see any aircraft or helicopters. They were dark-brown and might be Sparrowhawks, but flew closely together. In short, it seems they are two UFOs taken with my cellular. Thanks to MUFON CMA and Ivan.

Posted in Filer's Files, Uncategorized on May 21st, 2008 by admin

Nazca Lines Solved

This week’s Files report: The Meaning of the Nazca Lines of Peru is a Terminal VFR Aerial Chart, Mars Lander’s Phoenix Touchdown on May 25, 2008, and Fire Fighters Guide Part #11,

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena were spotted over: Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, New Mexico, North Carolina, Texas, Virginia, and Washington.

UFOs were also seen in Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Canada, Cambodia, Dominican Republic, New Zealand, Thailand and the UK.

These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over one hundred UFOs reported each week represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. It is my belief that God has spread intelligent civilizations throughout the universe and his messengers flew UFOs.

In the Living Bible, A Captain of Yhovah’s Army

Joshua 5:13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant?

Mars Lander’s Phoenix Touchdown on May 25, 2008

Many of our researchers have indicated there is water and life on Mars. Now NASA’s mantra to “Follow the water” will again be tested when the new Phoenix Mars Lander touches down on May 25, 2008.

Powered by solar panels, Phoenix is set to take a three-month tour of the plains near the north pole of Mars, enduring surface temperatures from –100 to – 28 degrees Fahrenheit (–73 to –33 degrees Celsius). The craft is designed to dig into the cementlike layer of ice that researchers believe lies buried a few inches below the surface in the planet’s polar regions, scanning for signs of past liquid water and organic compounds, the carbon-rich molecules that make life on Earth possible.

Assuming, that is, it survives entry. Only five of 13 attempts to land on Mars have succeeded. The $420-million Phoenix is the sibling mission of the doomed Mars Polar Lander (MPL), which crashed during landing in 1999. Since then, however, NASA has successfully carried out four missions to Mars, including landing the twin rovers Spirit and Opportunity. And NASA says that it has taken steps to prevent Phoenix from suffering its predecessor’s fate.

Phoenix will be the first craft to touch down using rocket thrusters since the Viking 2 lander, some 32 years ago.

For Phoenix’s landing site, mission planners settled on an extremely flat elliptical swath roughly 60 miles by 10 miles in area. Thanks to NASA

Nazca Lines and Culture

South America conformed to a global pattern that most of the world’s earliest and greatest civilizations evolved in semi-desert regions which were enriched by irrigation projects. The Sumerian civilization began on the bank of the Euphrates, the Egyptians on the banks of the Nile, the Harappan on the banks of Indus, and the Maya in arid valleys of Mexico. We have speculated that the ancient astronauts gave primitive humans a hand in constructing their buildings and an establishing civilization.

“The Ancient Civilizations of Peru” by Alden Mason explains that the first of these ancient civilizations began to emerge about 4,000 years ago on the coast of Peru in the fertile land along the mouths of a dozen or so rivers. These were a simple and peaceful people, living in small cultivable oases by the sea, fishing, raising a few food crops, living in non-masonry houses, and making the objects necessary for their economic and household life, with scant attention to art.

In addition, high up in the Andes at altitudes over 10,000 feet lived a very different races of Aymaraes, and Huancas with remarkably elongated heads who had hearts 20% larger than normal humans. They had 15 per cent more blood than normal that contained an above-average quota of red corpuscles and hemoglobin. Their lung sacs, which transfer oxygen from air to blood, were not only larger than normal, but were kept permanently dilated to provide the maximum surface for transferring oxygen. Hundreds of bodies have been found with elongated cone heads and ancient skull surgery: i.e.,

The cone heads were apparently prehistoric engineers who built excellent canals, operated and maintained them with remarkably sound empirical knowledge of the principle of open flow hydraulics and water distribution. Note the skull of a probable builder of the Nazca Lines had an elongated skull.

This shows a skull in an ancient grave at Cahuachi, Nazca.

The Nazca Lines are located in the Nazca Desert, a high arid plateau that stretches between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the pampa (a large flat area of southern Peru). Many link this area with alien visitors who still interact with local people to this day. The Nazca Lines are an enigma. No one has proof who built them or why. At ground level there is little to see and they were not discovered until commercial airliners flew over the area in the 1920’s. Passengers reported seeing ‘primitive landing strips’ on the ground below. The sign the area from the ground.

Since their discovery, the Nazca Lines have inspired fantastic explanations from ancient gods, a landing strip for returning aliens, a celestial calendar created by the ancient Nazca civilization who also had the strange elongated heads as seen in this skull of a typical Nazca grave.

The designs cover nearly 400 square miles of desert. Etched in the surface of the desert pampa sand about 300 hundred figures made of straight lines, geometric shapes most clearly visible from the air.

There are various designs consisting of figures of animals, flowers and plants, objects, and anthropomorphic figures of colossal proportions made with well-defined lines. The most well-known being is The Astronaut at 32m length discovered by Eduardo Herran in 1982.

Maria Reiche was a German mathematician and archaeologist who was famous for researching the Nazca Lines. She believed the lines were an Astronomical Calendar indicating the direction of the rising of important stars and planetary events like sun solstices. Formations like the spider and the monkey could show star constellations like Orion and Ursa Mayor.

Reiche led a determined effort to discredit theories of extraterrestrial visitors. She argued that the Nazca Indians constructed the Lines some time between 300 BC and AD 800 based on radiocarbon dates, of ceramic and wood remains which were left by the Nazcan people. The dating only proves the Nazcans lived in the area of the Nazca Lines since the Lines themselves cannot be radiocarbon dated, the possibility remains that they already existed when the Nazcan culture emerged.

The second piece of evidence is the alleged resemblance of the Nazca geoglyphs to certain features found on Nazcan pottery. This is an important issue because it potentially offers proof that the Nazcans had either designed the images or at least viewed them from the air.

Let’s assume we were in a spacecraft entering the Earth’s atmosphere over the North Pole. We fly south along the coast of the Americas and reach Peru. A giant Trident or Candelabra is carved into the side of a mountain near Pisco pointing southeast toward the Nazca lines. The sign shows a pyramid near the bottom and our space ship at the top and tells us to change heading to southeast.

Upon reaching the Nazca area he would see various animals pointing to the key cities of ancient Peru. This is very similar to VFR aerial charts issued today only the chart is drawn on the ground with huge formations hundreds of feet long pointing to your destination. The map below depicts the key formations in the Nazca area. The mountain in the upper left is pointing toward Machu Picchu that translated means “The Old Mountain”. The astronaut head and the lizard are pointing to the Urubamba Valley (Sacred Valley) of the Andes mountain range. Another bird and the tail of the whale are pointing to Lake Titicata towards the southeast.

The hummingbird below with the long peak is pointing to Cuzco, a city meaning naval.

The Nazca lines cannot be recognized as coherent figures except from the air. Since it is presumed the Nazca people could never have seen their work from this vantage point, there has been much speculation on the builders’ abilities and motivations. The obvious conclusion is that they were signaling to flying objects passing over.

The Aymaraes and the Huancas races who had the large cone heads worshipped a flying storm God. Within the Temple of the Sun in Cuzco a golden statue of Illap, “The Flashing on,” shared the same altar as images of the sun and the creator. The flash of his sling was lightning, that would cause the rain to fall.

Interestingly, almost all the famous textiles of the lowland Paracas are richly decorated with flying creatures combining human, feline and bird characteristics. In practically every case the textiles show flying who are devouring heads or tiny human bodies. Their belief system shows a great fear of the flying objects and the beings with cone heads.

All the designs share a sense of action and the winged beings are shown in full flight. This textile was made about 400 BC, and is considered more valuable than gold and as the finest textiles in the world that still hold their color.

Around 3400 BC, when the Great Pyramid of Egypt was only a century old the

ancient Peruvians already displayed many of the attributers we associate with civilization. There were large permanent settlements and they acquired artistic and religious values and were capable of organizing massive construction projects. The fact that all this had happened before they became dependent on agriculture—indeed, before they became dependent on agriculture – indeed, before they had even begun to make pottery-took an entire generation scholars by surprise.

Evan Hadingham “Lines to the Mountain Gods”, states, “The building of Machu Picchu would have been a gargantuan undertaking , involving tens of thousands of artisans over

several decades, and it seems probable that Cusichaca was developed as an immensely cultivated area in order to supply this labour with food.

“The Incredible Incas” by Loren McIntyre indicates some of the nobility are unusually intelligent and different from other humans. Page 81 states, “But I recalled Father Cobo had written 300 years ago of the Andean Indians’ warm bloodedness, in freezing weather, if you touch their hands, you find them remarkably warm…they sleep by the road where ever night overtakes them, uncovered to the sky, through palm width of snow may fall, they sleep as if in soft beds.” I ascribe this extreme warmth to their having stomachs more rugged than the ostrich…”When food is free they eat like wolves. Dr. Ismael Escobar a nuclear physicist asked, “Could cosmic rays bring about mutation that could cause genetic change?”

Dolichocephalic or cone heads compared to the Human skull.

I ask if it is possible that the Aymaraes and the Huancas race descended from spaceman? Their heads are almost twice as large as normal humans. The later Incas eventually conquered and area larger than the Roman Empire. They built some of largest structures in history, and cultivated vast areas using construction techniques of great precision virtually the same as those in Egypt. But they built many of their cities at extreme altitude where visitors have trouble breathing and if you smoke you are likely to pass out.

I am aware these large heads cause an embarrassment to the modern theories of evolution, how could heads so large develop different from humans, Neanderthals or even Cro-Magnon man?

I wonder why the ceramics, the ladies hats and textiles depict spaceman and spaceships? Despite conquistadors, religious pressures and the westernized society in many Peruvian towns, the memories of the past are kept alive in Andean culture with disc shaped hats and textiles showing flying creatures.

In the “Chariots of the Gods” Erich Von Danikens asks, “But what can have induced the pre-Inca peoples to build the fantastic lines, the landing strips, at Nazca?” What madness could have driven them to create the 830 foot stone signs on the red cliffs south of Lima? These tasks would have taken decades without modern machines and appliances. Their whole activity would have been senseless if the end product of their efforts had been had not been as signs to beings approaching them from great heights. The stimulating question still has to be answered: Why did they do all this if they had no idea that flying beings actually existed? Page 18.

Peru 4200 Year Old Oldest Observatory in America

BUENA VISTA — Archeologists working high in the Peruvian Andes have discovered the oldest known celestial observatory in the Americas — a 4,200-year-old structure marking the summer and winter solstices that is as old as the stone pillars of Stonehenge. The observatory was built on the top of a 33-foot-tall pyramid with precise alignments and sightlines that provide an astronomical calendar for agriculture, archeologist Robert Benfer of the University of Missouri said. The people who built the observatory — three millenniums before the emergence of the Incas — are a mystery, but they achieved a level of art and science that archeologists say they did not know existed in the region until at least 800 years later.The find adds strong evidence to support the recent idea that a sophisticated civilization developed in South America in the pre-ceramic era, before the development of fired pottery sometime after 1500 BC. The 20-acre site, called Buena Vista, is about 25 miles inland in the Rio Chillon Valley, just north of Lima. “It is on a totally barren, rock-covered hill looking down on a beautiful fertile valley,” said Benfer, who presented the find last month in Puerto Rico at a meeting of the Society for American Archeology. The site contains ruins dating from 10,000 years ago to well into the ceramic era in the first millennium BC. Thanks to National Geographic.

Fire Officer’s Guide to Disaster Control

CHAPTER 13: ENEMY ATTACK AND UFO POTENTIAL

Part 10

UFOs–EMERGENCY ACTION — WARNING “Near approaches of UFOs can be harmful to human beings. There is a possibility of radiation danger and there are known cases where persons have been burned by rays emanating from UFOs. Don’t take chances with UFOs!”

In view of the federal law empowering NASA’s administrator to impound, without a hearing, anyone who touches a UFO or its occupants; it would be inadvisable to make personal contact unless you are willing to submit to NASA’s quarantine requirements, should the law be invoked. Besides the possible physical effects of approaching a UFO, e.g.. burns, radiation, etc., there may be psychological effects produced by force fields that could induce a hypnotic state in the viewer, loss of consciousness, memory relapse, and submission to the occupants. Jacques Vallee, author of “The Invisible College” cautions that we should consider psychic effects, such as space-time distortions experienced by percipients of craft-like devices which appear to fade away–dematerialize–and then reappear; of alien, strange voices or thoughts that may effect involuntary changes in the manner in which witnesses may react in such circumstances.(72)

Perhaps the above warnings of Edwards and Vallee are a little too cautious and apprehensive to adopt as a general pattern of conduct in every situation. In the absence of overt acts indicating hostility, there may be no danger in approaching a landing (or landed) UFO with a positive, solicitous attitude of wanting to be of service. This nonaggressive mental state may be telepathically sensed by those aboard or emerging from the craft; a form of nonvocal communication is a possibility. It goes without saying that any display of firearms or other weapons on your part could be construed as unfriendly and likely to thwart your intention of conveying a helpful attitude. In a best case scenario, you may be able to obtain guidance as to the appropriate actions to take, whether of a life-saving nature, e.g., in quelling a fire, abating a spill, and of preservation of property, or even in the reduction of apprehension on the part of your response team and the spectators. In a less optimistic scenario, you may have engine trouble upon approaching the scene, and radio contact could be lost with your dispatcher.

Your headlights could go out, the city could be blacked out, and your portable generators may malfunction when you attempt to use them for fans and portable lights. It would certainly be an inopportune time for our comrades to announce that they had decided to take their pensions, effective immediately. In any event, the incident could provide invaluable experience for further training in coping with rare and difficult emergencies. Whatever “inside” information you are able to pass along to your fellow officers and citizens of the world might help to alleviate unreasonable fear, so that there would be less likelihood that we would ever again experience the panic and hysteria that was created by War of the Worlds a half century ago. Truth is the best cure for the unknown. A list of some of the available books on Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) is found in Appendix H.

CONCLUSION Some fire chiefs have little confidence in disaster plans, especially those dealing with UFOs or enemy attack. If you develop a plan that sets forth your responsibilities, resources, organizations, supplies information, telephone numbers, and special data that will be useful in obtaining help and fulfilling your role in disaster control, commit it to an electronic medium, a computer with a capability for continuous updating through modern word processing. Bring it forth when the need requires. With a good plan, good leadership, and adequate resources, you may save many lives in any disaster, including attack from possible enemies. Thanks to William Kramer Ph.D and Charles W. Bahame, J.D.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”

The film is opening at the Cannes Film Festival and its released trailer shows a crate marked “Roswell, New Mexico 1947, where a UFO is believed to have crashed. Not generally realized is that the Indiana Jones was in its earliest carnation going to be about saucer men from Mars but extraterrestrial origins were dropped. The Crystal Skull apparently has to do with an extinct civilization apparently with an extraterrestrial twist. Instead of clarity, we are treated to airy philosophizing, such as when one character, with a Yoda-like flourish, refers to the ancients’ relationship to ”the space between the spaces.”

We do know that it’s the Cold War 1950s. Indy played by Harrison Ford has been kidnapped at the behest of the power-mad, slinky Soviet femme fatale Irina Spalko played by Cate Blanchett, vamping in a formfitting gray uniform. Irina wants him to help find the skull because it’s the key to mind-controlling knowledge. Mutt, meanwhile, wants Indy to help him find his missing mother. Anyhow, if Indy is a salty coot, the movie sticks to the old ways, too. At its best, it’s a satisfying shuffle of the deck of famous Spielbergian moments that have gone before in E.T., Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and Raiders of the Lost Ark.

SIEM REAP — My wife and I were on a visit to the Angkor Wat Temples on May 16, 2008, about 4:30 PM, and were taking pictures walking on the bridge over the lake surrounding the temple complex when my wife decided to take some pictures of the entrance from behind us. We were totally unaware of any unusual objects in the sky and really didn’t see anything out of the ordinary until we zoomed in on the pictures. To my surprise in two of the pictures taken of the entrance I could see some bright objects in what seems to be some kind of formation. These were the only pictures we took in that direction.

Arizona Unknown Lights

TUCSON –A friend and I saw four objects hovering in the sky near Davis Monthan Air Force on May 16, 2008, at 9:15 PM. The objects were oval shaped, bright, white lights. They didn’t seem to be forming any specific type of pattern. It was totally amazing! I have never seen anything like that. At one point two of the lights just turned off and they appeared to be gone. Within seconds the lights turned on again and they were back. Shortly after, the same two lights turned off again and never turned back on. Then the third light turned off and finally the fourth light turned off and they were gone.

About 45 minutes later, we saw a flashing red light flying the perimeter of that same area. This flashing red light was just going around circling the area where my friend and I saw the 4 objects. My friend seems to think that was the military checking out the area because they probably spotted the 4 objects on radar.

I wish I knew more about this stuff. I was a total non-believer until yesterday. Now, I want to see more! Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

California Investigation

DANA POINTThe photographer who submitted the Dana Point photo stated that - of all the photos he had taken on May 6, 2008 - this was the only photo with “this object in it” as if he was not aware that two distinct objects are evident. The white sphere is 60% larger than bent tubular cylindrical object (C.O.) just below it, and shadow under the sphere seems to be darker than shadow of the cylinder. The sphere appears to be somewhat closer to the camera.

The cylinder seems to have some connection to the adjacent cloud and with the sphere. The cylindrical object (C.O.) has 90-degree bend downward where it seems to penetrate the cloud. Diameter of C.O. is less than the diameter of sphere, and C.O. appears to be light blue-white in color. The C.O. seems to be too narrow to account for the wide shadowed area under and between the horizontal end of the object and its 90-degree bend. There is a white cap like disturbance on the surface of the water immediately below the down-turned end of the C.O. Thanks to engineer John E. Combest

FONTANA/RANCHO, CUCAMONGA – I just got home with my wife after driving around for a while, practicing her driving skills on May 15, 2008, at 10 PM. As soon as we got out of the car, I decided to look up into the night sky to see if I would spot any UFO’s. I’ve been pretty much keeping an eye out for these things since I’ve been doing my research on the phenomenon. I looked up and noticed a very faint light formation that appeared to be a very distant airplane moving northbound in the direction of the mountains. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Florida UFO Photo

JAY – We have a picture which we took of a drill rig on May 13, 2008 at 9:09 AM. What is hanging in the picture above the snubbing north of Pensacola in the Florida Panhandle.

Comments: I am not sure of the identity of the object in the photo. It doesn’t appear to be an insect or bird. However, the object is out of focus and could have been close to the camera. If this is true the object could have an “out of focus” bird or insect. The witnesses did not see anything and only noticed the object after viewing the photo. Lack of witnesses seeing anything unusual reduces the chance that the object is anything unexplainable. The photo was taken with a Canon Powershot A400 Digital Camera. (The camera has a maximum resolution of 3.2 megapixels.) Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Georgia Descending White Orb

AUGUSTA I was driving home from work, on Riverwatch Parkway heading toward downtown on May 15, 2008, at 1:54 AM. Above the old Grantiville Plant I saw a bright orb white in color. It came out of nowhere and started descending really fast. I thought it was a small aircraft at first. I drove in the direction I thought it fell but saw nothing no smoke, etc. The light (object) was reported as descending.

Comments: This scenario probably means that it has a conventional explanation, but given limited data I can’t identify what was seen. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

Indiana Line of Lights

LAFAYETTEI am a recent graduate of Purdue University and what I saw took place at about 10:30 PM, on April 16, 2008. I was standing on my balcony and noticed a light in the eastern sky that I assumed was an airplane landing at the Purdue Airport. I decided to watch it fly over but, an orange or yellow light did not move. It disappeared for a brief moment and then reappeared as five or seven similar lights forming a circle then flew to take the shape of a horizontal line.

Then from that line, another line of lights seemed to project from the horizontal line toward a vertical position. During this time, the entire array of lights seemed to move slightly north. The way the second line projected from the first was similar to the way a movie click board opens. The lines moved independent of each other and began moving around each other. Finally, after witnessing this, which I would say took place for about 15 seconds, I ran inside to get my roommate to see it, but when we returned it was gone. I also saw a few planes or jets flying all around the sky right. They told me that many people in Kokomo saw this. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

New Jersey Shiny Orb/Object

WAYNE — As I was driving down Route 23 southbound approaching Newark-Pompton Crossroad on May 17, 2008, and I spotted a shiny object in the pale blue sky at 8:55 AM. It was at an unknown distance/altitude and looked like tiny sphere moving parallel with the ground. I kept my eyes on it for no more than five seconds when it seemed to literally shrink out of site in less than a second. It was moving about the speed of an airliner which is what I thought it was at first until I watched it vanish. I did not blink. It all happened so fast that it made me very curious.

Several hours later when it occurred to me that I may have just witnessed a UFO. I suppose it is possible it was a jet that caught the sunlight at just the right angle and then turned in a way that caused it to lose its reflectiveness. Thanks to MUFON CMS

North Carolina Cylinder

RALEIGH DURHAM I was observing a few low clouds in a sunny blue sky when the sun gleamed off an airliner on its approach to land on September 12, 2002. I watched the airliner fly over a cloud as it descended and at the edge of a cloud, a huge cylinder emerged from the cloud just below the airliner. The cigar shaped craft continued matching the airliner’s speed, but directly beneath it, until the cigar craft entered the edge of another cloud. I watched the airliner continue descent flying above the second cloud and observed the cigar shape enter and disappear into the cloud.

The airliner continued descent until it turned left for the final into RDU airport, but the cigar never emerged from the second cloud. The cigar craft was as long as the second cloud and barely fit within it. I was very surprised it did not emerge and continued watching to see it come out. It never did emerge and I watched until the cloud disappeared.
I had no camera available. I painted the scene as I saw it. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Pennsylvania Five White Spheres

YORKUp to nine reports where called into Shadow Research, Inc toll free hotline on April 25, 2008. Witnesses called to report five white spheres traveling through the sky, stopping and moving in rapid circles in the sky and sometimes dropping very low over houses. The objects where spotted over York, Tropper, Collegeville, Devon and Broomall Pennsylvania over a three hour period. One witness called to report that there were white

lights very low over her backyard swimming pool, and her dog was barking at the objects. At 10:40 PM, I received a call from a witness in Collegeville, who was viewing five white spheres of light maneuvering and circling very fast near the Limerick Nuclear Power plant. He also submitted a cell phone camera picture, which is shown here. I think there are more people who saw the objects this night and would like to contact anyone else who may have seen something. Thanks to Randy Baker, Director of Shadow Research, Inc www.shadowresearch.com

Texas Disc and Strange Lighting

The disc has been enlarged and gamma increased.

Steve A. Hudgeons - Chief Investigator for MUFON in Texas completed his investigation and feels the case is a hoax – primarily because there is no data to contact photographer. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Virginia A Tear Drop Shaped UFO

RESTON As we were driving nearby the elementary school we felt a mental spike through our minds. We automatically looked up through sunroof, and saw a UFO with spikes. Its shape was tear dropped and had a red ball trailing behind it on May 16, 2008 at 3:15 PM. It was red then it was gone in an instant on Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Washington Look Up to Photo Disc

ASHFORD – Yesterday, May 16, 2008 in late afternoon my brother and I were taking pictures of sky trails about four miles north of Mt. Rainier Park. There was a whole bunch of trails in the clear sky and I was taking pictures of the jets leaving these trails. When I down loaded the pictures from my camera into the computer this little item showed up in one of the pictures. I enlarged the picture and its below to the right of the jet. Man this is scary and exciting at the same time.

Comments: The witness is obviously excited by what he photographed. However, the object is likely a bird that is out of focus. The camera used had a low resolution so a definitive shape cannot be determined through blowup.

Argentina Two spherical “objects”

ALVEAR – Two spherical “objects” appear in the background. One is larger than the other and with its upper section somewhat clearer. These were not detected at the time that the photograph was taken using a Soni 7.2 mpix camera. The photo, from Alvear, shows a lawn hockey practice session and was taken on February 8, 2008. The object was only detected when the image was downloaded to the computer. Photo courtesy of Raul Chaves and CIUFOS-LAPAMPA, http://inexplicata.blogspot.com/2008/04/argentina-more-phantom-ufos.html

I have attached the two pictures taken within a minute of each other. in the first picture there are 3 objects and in the second one these objects suddenly appear much farther apart. If you enlarge the second one more you will see more bright objects. I have zoomed some portions of the first picture for the sake of posting here. On zooming, there appears to be a faint outer shell and a glow in the centre. We used a Canon Powershot A570, 4x optical zoom, 7.1 mega pixel. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Canada Debris Falls from Sky

WALNUT GROVE, BRITISH COLUMBIAA mystery lump of metal fell through roof at Costco warehouse in Monday afternoon, May 5, 2008, police say. The metal smashed through the roof between 3:00 and 3:30 PM. The unidentified item crashed down and onto the warehouse floor, where a number of employees routinely work, but there were no injuries said RCMP Cpl. Peter Thiessen according to The Langley Advance news. www.langleyadvance.com

ARBUTUS COVE, SAANICH B.C. – We were watching the Pacific Ocean and the sky above Arbutus Road and saw a melon shaped UFO moving very fast on May 12, 2008, at 11:30 PM. Its high speed caught our attention. With a speed faster than any plane. It stopped at the Oak Bay area for a little, then moved north until it disappeared. With very bright flashing lights. The light was lighting the ocean under it. When it was moving, it was like it pushed itself frequently for moving. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Dominican Republic Light

I named this picture a few years ago as me with UFO in background a few years ago as a cute caption, but just realized that the object in the background is not the moon or any other known celestial being…you decide…no camera tricks. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Zealand A Very Bright Solid Light

CHRISTCHURCH – A very bright solid light traveling through the sky at about 2/3rds of the height of a tree in our yard which was about 25 feet from where I was standing on May 14, 2008 at: 5:57 PM, it looked roughly to be 2 to 2.5 km’s away over the estuary, it traveled to the southwest for approximately 15 seconds and went behind the tree, after repositioning to be able to see the light it could no longer be observed and yet the skies were clear in all directions there was no detectable noise and the light did not flash at all it just moved from one point in the sky to another point in the sky and wasn’t there any more.

An hour and half later, a light not as bright as the first appeared to be higher up rotating in a tight circular motion, it gave me enough at to point it out for my wife and we both observed it for approximately one minute on May 14, 2008 at: 7:34 PM. It circled tightly in the same spot always coming back to the same position at 0 degrees to the horizon. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research, http://www.hbccufo.org

Thailand Formation of Moving Lights

SATTAHIP – Friends and I were attending three short plays at the hospital on May 17, 2008. During intermission we adjourned to the roof and noticed multiple lights blinking just above the southern horizon. First we saw three in a row, then several more, then two, then one, then three, etc., etc. These were star-like lights and were at least at 30,000 feet. They traveled roughly in formation from their point of origin on the southern horizon to overhead.

They were silent. We were having Cobra Gold, a joint military exercise between the US and Thailand militaries (especially US Navy). The local Thai Navy Base is at Sattahip, south of Pattaya, where we stood. The “craft” reminded me of Phoenix Lights and those multiple light objects filmed above Mexico City when government officials were present and cameras were tilted up to view scores of lights filling the skies. One or several self-luminous lights would blink on just above the south horizon, then continue flying to great height overhead, in a basic line. First three lights would appear. Then several more lights would blink on and continue their formation overhead. The lights were witnessed by at least three others besides me for about 12 minutes.

I am a long time MUFON member. I would guess there were at least 20-25 objects observed for 10 to 15 minutes. Everyone present was quite puzzled. The objects disappeared as they passed the hospital roof line overhead. The lights moved steadily and quietly. They were absolutely silent. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK Secret Files Released by Ministry of Defence

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.

There are some reports from more official sources. The United States Air Force filed a report about two USAF policemen who saw “unusual lights outside the back gate at RAF Woodbridge” in Suffolk in December 1980. This relates to the well-known incident of an alleged alien encounter at Rendlesham Forest, dubbed “Britain’s Roswell” after the supposed contact made with aliens at Roswell in the One of the Pcs, who saw the object through binoculars, described it as “circular in the middle with what appeared to be a dome on top and underneath” with different coloured United States.

Several drawings are visible in the files from those keen to demonstrate what they had seen.

One such sketch was made by Metropolitan Police officers, who were called out to a house in Stanmore in the London Borough of Harrow on 26 April, 1984.

Three officers spent an hour observing the object in the sky, which “moved erratically from side to side, up and down and to and fro, not venturing far from the original position”. lights.

Visitors to the National Archives site will also find a videocast from Nick Pope, a British UFO specialist.

Mr Pope picked out one incident where a UFO was spotted over central London.

“This is a very interesting illustration that, actually, UFOs are seen in built-up areas. People have this idea they’re seen in desolate, rural places. “There’s a sighting actually on Waterloo bridge, when a number of witnesses actually stopped to look at this UFO that was seen over the Thames.”

Mr Pope said the most common explanation for UFOs were aircraft lights, bright stars and planets, satellites, meteors, or airships. The ministry has files on 11,000 sightings dating back to the 1950s.

Royal Air Force personnel, civil aviation pilots and air traffic controllers have also reported sightings and radar tracks that remain unexplained despite high-level investigation. Among the most famous was the sighting on two occasions of unexplained bright lights landing near a U.S. airbase in Rendlesham Forest in southern England. Even the deputy commander of the base put his name to that 1980 report. Thanks to (Editing by Robert Woodward and sent by Lamar James [ljames@uaex.edu])
