Ex-Detroit Lion Nate Burleson Shares UFO Story

Article by John Maakaron                                             March 4, 2021                                            (si.com)

• On March 4th, former Detroit Lions wide receiver Nate Burleson (pictured above) shared an online video about seeing a UFO in 2013. “My wife and I went on a date night. We went to an Asian-American fusion restaurant. I had the Chilean sea bass. She had the sushi,” writes Burleson. “Around 10:30, 11 p.m. I’m driving home. I see some lights off in the distance. I’m like, ‘Why are those helicopters so close to each other and why are they just sitting there?’ Maybe about five or ten miles away, I keep driving and I see more lights pop up.”

• “I’m like, yo those ain’t helicopters. I hop out of the car. These lights I saw first. These lights I saw second,” says Burleson. “Here’s where I hopped out of the car? I had a HTC touch phone. I start recording. The lights hit a zigzag formation — floating. Zero sound. Jaw dropped. I’m bugging out. My wife’s like, ‘Get in the car.’ I’m like, ‘Nah, nah, Nah, I’ve got to see this.”

• Burleson continues, “Then they hit like a squiggly line formation. I’m tripping. Mind you, this is five to ten miles away — zero sound, elevating off the ground. And then they just drop to like like a cloud height — just drop and they’re just sitting there. And then poof, they take off into the distance.”

• “I’ve always known that aliens exist, says Burleson. “I had never seen UFOs. I saw one that night. And that’s the truth. I mean, you got to be foolish to think that we are the only beings in existence. I mean, just dated all the way back to hieroglyphics. They were telling us that the writing’s on the wall, literally… The question is, are they among us?”

Sometimes, you just have to let the story tell itself.

Former Detroit Lions wide receiver Nate Burleson shared a story online Thursday of coming across an unidentified flying object back in 2013.

The best way to tell this tale is to allow the talented television personality to tell it himself.

According to Burleson, “It was early 2013. It was after the season. I was playing with the Detroit Lions. My wife and I went on a date night.

We went to an Asian-American fusion restaurant. I had the Chilean sea bass. She had the sushi.

I remember it because — what a night it was.

Around 10:30, 11 p.m. I’m driving home. I see some lights off in the distance. I’m like, ‘Why are those helicopters so close to each other and why are they just sitting there?’

Cleveland Browns QB Baker Mayfield and Wife See UFO

Article by J.R. De Groote                                                March 4, 2021                                               (heavy.com)

• On March 4th, on their way home after an evening out in Austin, Texas, Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (pictured above) and his wife Emily tweeted that they had seen a UFO. “Almost 100%, Em and I just saw a UFO drop straight out of the sky on our way home from dinner,” Mayfield tweeted. “We stopped and looked at each other and asked if either of us saw it. Very bright ball of light going straight down out of the sky towards Lake Travis. Anybody else witness this?”

• Emily Mayfield tweeted: “What. Was. That. In. Austin. Texas.” “I won’t lie… I’m typically not someone who buys into UFO talk. But all I know is… I saw something tonight that I have never seen. And I’m a little thrown off.”

 

               Baker and Emily Mayfield

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield and his wife Emily were left puzzled after a late-night incident where they allegedly saw an unidentified flying object. The two shared their thoughts on Twitter following the UFO sighting, asking those in the Austin, Texas area for information.

“Almost 100%, Em and I just saw a UFO drop straight out of the sky on our way home from dinner,” Baker Mayfield wrote. “We stopped and looked at each other and asked if either of us saw it. Very bright ball of light going straight down out of the sky towards Lake Travis. Anybody else witness this?”

Anybody else witness this? — Baker Mayfield (@bakermayfield) March 4, 2021

Emily Mayfield seemed equally confused by the situation.

“What. Was. That. In. Austin. Texas,” she wrote in her first tweet, following it up with another. “I won’t lie… I’m typically not someone who buys into UFO talk. But all I know is… I saw something tonight that I have never seen. And I’m a little thrown off.”

UFO Sleuth Says US Government Knows More About Aliens Than It Lets On

Article by Harry Pettit                                                February 8, 2021                                           (thesun.co.uk)

• Since 1996, John Greenewald Jr. has run the website, The Black Vault, (see here), where he has filed more than 10,000 Freedom of Information Act requests and published over 2 million sensitive files from the CIA, NSA and other government agencies. His trove of documents dates back to World War One and covers topics including UFOs, Bigfoot, alien encounters, the JFK assassination and the CIA’s mind-control research.

• Each month, The Black Vault site attracts more than 300,000 visitors, who download a combined ten terabytes of documents. Most are so heavily classified you can’t read anything on the page. “A lot of people get frustrated at that,” Greenewald said. “But that to me… proves that the phenomena is real, that it’s unidentified, and that it’s highly classified. Whatever it is, they just don’t want us to know about it.”

• Greenewald believes that there are plenty of secrets stored in the various national archives that agency staff don’t even know are there. “[T]here’s a lot of evidence to suggest that most government agencies don’t know what they have in their holdings,” said Greenewald. “The National Archive here in America alone, they measure documents by cubic feet due to the amount of information they have. So it’s hard for me to believe they’ve found every UFO document that they have.”

• The cyber detective has made his fair share of head-spinning finds. They include the story of an explosion in a small Russian town in the 1970s which ripped off roofs, blew out windows and left a 90ft-wide crater. Residents there reported seeing a “moving fiery sphere”. Another tells of a Bosnian fugitive who claimed to have made contact with aliens. Perhaps the site’s biggest scoop are files relating to MKUltra, the CIA mind-control experiments conducted on dozens of US citizens to control human behavior, often using hallucinogens like LSD.

• Based in the town of Castaic in Los Angeles county California with his wife of nine years, Sabrena, and two children, Christian, aged six, and Anabelle, two, Greenewald has tirelessly investigated the shady activities of US government sleuths since the age of 15. He wakes up at 4:30am each day to investigate unexplained phenomena the world over, juggling his hobby with his day job running an online business that sells earphones to gyms and schools.

• In January, Greenewald published hundreds more declassified CIA files containing once top secret information on sightings of UFOs across the globe. But Greenewald says that there are still reams of documents held by the government regarding UFO sightings that are yet to be uncovered, and that spy agencies know a lot more about “alien” encounters than they’re letting on.

• In an interview with The Sun, the 39-year-old revealed that some files simply go “missing”. “Often they search their archives and tell you they didn’t find anything,” said Greenewald. “You really can’t fight it and you just have to trust them.” “Sometimes, the evidence is so explosive that they don’t really search as well as they say they do.”

• “I once filed requests on DIA and NSA material on UFOs that’s been classified for years,” said Greenewald. “Both agencies told me the same thing: They ‘lost everything’. They just can’t find it. That doesn’t make sense, that doesn’t fly. The government generally doesn’t lose anything. …For them to claim (they’ve lost) UFO material is very convenient.”

• Still, Greenewald hopes that The Black Vault can educate the general public by giving them as much of the story as possible. He’s kept the website free and allows people to download anything from the site without charging a fee. “I want visitors to have as many pieces of the puzzle as possible when it comes to UFOs or mind control or whatever the topic is,” he said. “They want this information, and they should have access to it.” “It’s the most amazing feeling I get when people benefit from that.”

 

A SEASONED UFO-hunter who has spent 25 years exposing US government secrets says that spy agencies know a lot more about

        John Greenewald Jr.

“alien” encounters than they’re letting on.

John Greenewald Jr, who runs a website where he has published more than 2million sensitive files from the CIA, National Security Agency and more, said reams of documents regarding mysterious sightings are yet to be uncovered.

Based in California, the father-of-two has tirelessly investigated the shady activities of US government sleuths since the age of 15.

Last month, he published hundreds of declassified CIA files containing once top secret information on sightings of UFOs across the globe to his website, The Black Vault.

Within the pages are a bizarre story of an explosion in a Russian town in the 1970s, and a dispute with a Bosnian fugitive who claimed to have made contact with aliens.

Since 1996, John says he’s filed more then 10,000 Freedom Of Information Act requests to get hold of elusive government papers.

They date back to World War One and cover topics including Bigfoot, alien encounters, the JFK assassination and the CIA’s mind-control research.

In an interview with The Sun, the 39-year-old revealed that some files are so explosive that they simply go “missing”.

“Often they search their archives and tell you they didn’t find anything,” John said. “You really can’t fight it and you just have to trust them.”

“Sometimes, the evidence is so explosive that they don’t really search as well as they say they do.”

On top of that, he believes that there are plenty of juicy secrets stored up in the national archives that agency staff don’t know are there.

Ziggy Marley Talks About UFOs

Article by Claudia Gardner                                          January 23, 2021                                        (dancehallmag.com)

• On Thursday January 21st, Rastafarian reggae music legend Bob Marley’s eldest son, the current pop singer Ziggy Marley (51), posted on his Instagram page with over 1.2 million followers, a post entitled “Can we talk about the UFOs, Extraterrestrial Flying Objects now?” along with a graphic of a grainy, grayscale photograph with a black dot resembling a bug in the center of it.

• “So much was happening in 2020 we could have missed it,” wrote Ziggy. “[T]he “governments afraid to open the eyes of the people’ and “we need to get the whole truth” as “the mass acceptance of this knowledge/truth will reset and expand the mindset of people”.

• Ziggy seemed engrossed with the UFO topic as he posted several other comments, and kept himself very engaged with his followers’ comments. “Already know life exists beyond this planet. It’s just something I know it is inborn. It is good to see it revealed through credible channels so the minds that are closed can be open.”

• In response to a fan comment, “We are not alone, for sure,” Ziggy agreed, writing: “[H]umanity needs to wake up and work together for this planet. We definitely haven’t been alone yet we are so lonely in this universe.” When another Instagram follower commented that there were “Humans throughout the galaxy”, Ziggy replied: “yea I feel that. One humanity we are all different but share something common that connects us.”

• While Ziggy received a large number of supportive messages and testimonies of sightings of extra-terrestrial beings, there was a lot of jeering, particularly from Americans. “Legend has it that they only come too earth to listen to Reggae music then fly back to their universe singing don’t worry about a thing,” one troll jeered. Another troll wrote: “Kinda looks like bigfoot to me…” Still another troll posted: “If it Hasn’t been confirmed by THE SIMPSONS then it isn’t.”

• Another dubious commenter noted that Ziggy’s “flying objects” were actually specially designed US military aircraft to which regular people were unaccustomed. “US have been making airplanes that look like disk and other shapes since the 1900’s. Come on now. They have pictures and show us to our faces ain’t no EFO or ETs,” Another commenter chimed in: “No brothers it’s our own government flying those don’t let them fool ya’ll.” “My money is on UFOs being our own government. They have technology beyond our imagination that they don’t tell us about.” But Ziggy stood his ground, responding: “ok, if you say so that’s’ a cool. Then I must ask what are the extraterrestrials using for transportation these days?”

• One skeptic even implied that Ziggy’s his claims of extraterrestrials run contrary to the Rastafarian faith and the Bible: “I think it’s an intriguing subject, but even with today’s technology we don’t have a detail pic or vid of this objects… always blurry. Also I don’t think the Bible mentions any other races that JAH created.”

• Some Instagram commenters, including ex-military personnel, insisted that they had seen extraterrestrial beings with their own eyes. Said one commenter: “I got a video of one (UFO) pulsating in Illinois. I wish could share it here, I saw them another time in Phillipsberg, Montana. The altitude was way up there.” Another commenter wrote: “I saw one in Colorado in the mountains when I was in the military, scared the crap out of me and a squadmate who was guard with me. We hid in a bush and just watched for about two hours.”

• Some commenters claimed that the extraterrestrials could be “from the future” and the “government” was hiding it: “[W]hat if they are just humans from the future in their time machine?” “There is definitely Babylon government secrets hiding the alien vehicles.” Another proposed a time-machine theory: “I always thought they might be us but from the future. Time traveling craft. Perhaps coming back to earth from another planet we inhabited thousands of years from now. Our present is their past…”

• One female commenter told Ziggy that she hoped the UFOs would be “more benevolent than human beings.” Ziggy replied: “[I]f the only source of their meaningful contact is governments and military and the knowledge is held in secret then we will have issues all humanity should be made aware of the truth of these connections.”

• Last July, the New York Times published an article titled “No Longer in Shadows, Pentagon’s U.F.O. Unit Will Make Some Findings Public” which noted that “despite Pentagon statements that it disbanded a once-covert program to investigate unidentified flying objects, the effort remains underway — renamed and tucked inside the Office of Naval Intelligence.” The article goes on to say that government officials continue to “study mystifying encounters between military pilots and unidentified aerial vehicles,” and quotes Senator Marco Rubio expressing his concerns “that China or Russia or some other adversary had made “some technological leap” that “allows them to conduct this sort of activity”. Rubio says that “some of the unidentified aerial vehicles over US bases possibly exhibited technologies not in the American arsenal” and that “maybe there is a completely, sort of, boring explanation for it. But we need to find out.”

 

                         Ziggy Marley

Ziggy Marley’s Instagram page has been awash with drama since Thursday afternoon, after the Rastafarian singer posted an

                      Bob Marley

image and a series of statements, acknowledging the existence of UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects), which he referred to as ‘Extraterrestrial Flying Vehicles’.

According to Ziggy’s statements, the “governments afraid to open the eyes of the people’ and “we need to get the whole truth” as “the mass acceptance of this knowledge/truth will reset and expand the mindset of people”.

While he got a large number of supportive messages and even testimonies of sightings of extra-terrestrial beings, there was a lot of jeering, particularly from Americans, who felt the Love is My Religion singer had gone bonkers.

Ziggy’s graphic contained a grainy, grayscale photograph with a black dot resembling a bug in the center of it, with the words “Can we talk about the UFOs, Extraterrestrial Flying Objects now?’ “So much was happening in 2020 we could have missed it. #EFO not #UFO,” the Tomorrow People artiste who has more than 1.2 million followers captioned the post.

Kesha’s Summoning Aliens Because of Demi Lovato

Article by Saman Javed                                              January 17, 2021                                                (unilad.co.uk)

• Pop singer Kesha has a podcast called ‘Kesha and the Creepies’ where she invites other pop musicians to talk about ‘anything supernatural and anything unexplainable’. “I’m talking to musicians about the craziest stuff we’ve ever gone through. All different kinds of people from all over the world, and giving their wildest experiences,” Kesha says. “It’s just helping my perspective grow. Just seeing the world and spirituality and the supernatural from everybody’s different perspectives. It’s so interesting to me because I’ve always been into that.”

• On December 18th, Kesha had pop singer Demi Lovato on her podcast. Lovato told Kesha that she had an ET experience with Dr. Steven Greer, the founder of the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence, when Lovato, Greer and their group psychically summoned ETs to them. “The first big thing that happened was that we saw this really, really bright light. This blue orb kept floating in front of us just 20-30 feet away,” said Lovato. She even attempted to chase the source of the light but it kept moving further away.

• “I loved the conversation we had because… there were a couple books she (Lovato) mentioned and an app she mentioned that I immediately downloaded,” said Kesha. “I told my family, all I want for Christmas is for us all to meditate and try to channel extraterrestrials.” Following the podcast episode, in an interview with Entertainment Tonight Kesha said she now had a new hobby of trying to summon aliens. “I’m like trying to get all my friends and family into meditating the aliens to us. It’s my new hobby because of Demi Lovato.”

 

Kesha says she is now summoning aliens in her spare time following Demi Lovato’s appearance on her podcast, Kesha and the Creepies.

‘I loved the conversation we had because… there were a couple books she mentioned and an app she mentioned that I immediately downloaded,’ the TiK ToK singer said of their conversation.

                           Demi Lovato

‘I told my family, all I want for Christmas is for us all to meditate and try to channel extraterrestrials,’ Kesha continued.

Lovato appeared in an episode of the podcast in December, when the pair sat down to discuss her experiences of extraterrestrial sights.

She told Kesha that she has been in touch with Steven Greer, a US-based urologist who founded the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence.

Describing one of their encounters with an extraterrestrial blue orb, she said: ‘The first big thing that happened was that we saw this really really bright light. This blue orb kept floating in front of us just 20-30 feet away.’

George Carlin on UFOs, Aliens, Opioids, and Alcohol

Article by Duncan Phenix and George Knapp                                      January 19, 2021                                        (krqe.com)

• Comedian George Carlin was an avid reader whose often-scathing stand-up monologues skewered human frailties and social trends. Over the course of 20 years, Carlin often performed at venues in Las Vegas – so often that it became his part-time residence. In 2008, a week after one of these Las Vegas shows, Carlin died from heart failure.

• To keep his comedy material fresh and relevant, Carlin would constantly read articles and book on various subjects. On stage, Carlin often delved into the topic of UFOs and aliens as sort of a set-up to comment on the sad state of humanity. While he never took any public positions about extraterrestrials, he had an abiding interest in the topic.

• So it was only natural that Carlin would become acquainted with Las Vegas television personality and UFO researcher George Knapp. When in Vegas, Carlin and Knapp would have several occasions to confer on the topic UFOs. The two of them even exchanged tapes, books, and information about UFOs. Knapp met George Carlin in the mid-1980s when Knapp interviewed him for an evening newscast on KLAS-TV. “I chatted with him after the interview and then we stayed in touch,” says Knapp. “I would occasionally go to see him when he was in Las Vegas to perform. In 1990, I started sending him tapes of the UFO stories and the multi-part series I was producing. In return, he would generously send me stacks of VHS tapes of his comedy specials and performances. Over the years, I also sent him a few (UFO) books, …which he liked.” “When he came to town, I’d go to see him and chat in his dressing room about UFO-related stories. He was deeply interested and it was clear he read a lot about the mystery, though he didn’t really want to be known publicly as a UFO guy, so I kept that to myself.”

• Knapp’s final on-camera interview with Carlin came in 2004 and he spoke about his interest in what might await humans in the cosmos or in other dimensions. “Yeah, I read a lot of articles and I try to read the books and you know,” Carlin said during the 2004 interview at the Stardust Hotel and Casino. “It would surprise me as it would surprise you George. I know that you hold this sort of belief, I’ll call it. If this were the only thing that the universe stumbled into – this life of people we have here – whether it’s a god or whether it’s a some kind of organizing energy. …[T]here’s got to be a lot of stuff. And the ‘bubble’. I’m just wanting to see how that string theory works out in the bubble, the chains and what’s in there. And I mean, there’s no end to things you can imagine, and there’s bound to be some of them.”

• Carlin also talked to Knapp about being fired from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in 2004 where he was a headliner, after an altercation with his audience. After a poorly received set filled with dark references to suicide bombings and beheadings, Carlin complained that he could not wait to get out of this “fucking hotel” and Las Vegas; he wanted to go back east, “where the real people are”. Carlin continued, “People who go to Las Vegas, you’ve got to question their fucking intellect to start with. Traveling hundreds and thousands of miles to essentially give your money to a large corporation is kind of fucking moronic. That’s what I’m always getting here is these kind of fucking people with very limited intellects.” When an audience member shouted, “Stop degrading us!” Carlin responded, “Thank you very much, whatever that was. I hope it was positive; if not, well, blow me.”

• Shortly after this incident Carlin was fired and almost immediately began treatment for alcohol and prescription painkiller addiction. Carlin was open with Knapp about his issues with opioids and alcohol, saying he began abusing opioids following a small surgery and was careful to keep his drinking in the shadows, saying he was a good functioning alcoholic.

 

      George Carlin with George Knapp

MYSTERY WIRE — Iconic comedian George Carlin was an avid reader whose often-scathing stand-up monologues skewered human frailties and social trends. One topic he sometimes mentioned onstage is alien life.

Carlin passed away in 2008 from heart failure. It happened just one week after performing another show in Las Vegas. Over the course of 20 years, Las Vegas was a town where Carlin lived part time and often performed.

During his time in Las Vegas, Carlin and Mystery Wire’s George Knapp talked several times, often delving into the topic of UFOs and aliens among other things such as politics and political correctness.

George Carlin used extraterrestrials a few times in his stand-up routines, sort of a set-up line to comment on the sad state of humanity, but he never took any public positions about UFOs or aliens.

Behind the scenes though, he had an abiding interest in the topics. The comedian and Knapp exchanged tapes, books, and information about UFOs.

“I met George Carlin in the mid 1980s. He came into KLAS and we interviewed him live in our studio for an evening newscast,” Knapp told Mystery Wire. “I chatted with him after the interview and then we stayed in touch. I would occasionally go to see him when he was in Las Vegas to perform (which was often.) In 1990, I started sending him tapes of the UFO stories and the multi-part series I was producing. In return, he would generously send me stacks of VHS tapes of his comedy specials and performances. Over the years, I also sent him a few books – UFO books and also books about strange and archaic words, which he liked. He would send autographed copies of books he had written. When he came to town, I’d go to see him and chat in his dressing room about UFO-related stories. He was deeply interested and it was clear he read a lot about the mystery, though he didn’t really want to be known publicly as a UFO guy, so I kept that to myself.”

Knapp’s final on-camera interview with Carlin came in 2004 and he spoke about his interest in what might await humans in the cosmos or in other dimensions.

New Discovery+ Series Unveils Unseen Project Blue Book UFO Files

Article by Patrick Cavanaugh                                     January 11, 2021                                      (comicbook.com)

• Project Blue Book is one of the most well-known investigative efforts into UFOs and extraterrestrial life, conducted by the US Air Force in the ’50s and ’60s before shutting down in 1970. While some of the research conducted within Project Blue Book has been released, there is still valuable information that the general public has never seen. On January 14th, the online streaming service, discovery+, debuted the series UFO Witness to explore all manner of intergalactic phenomenon, from UFO sightings to possible contact with humans. Among the topics in the UFO Witness series is a fresh look at Project Blue Book.

• Jennie Zeidman was the last surviving member of the Project Blue Book investigative team. Before her death in April 2020, Zeidman spoke publicly for the first time about her decades of research for UFO Witness. She believed we’ve been visited by UFOs and that the Earth is under extraterrestrial surveillance. Zeidman gave discovery+ exclusive access to her Project Blue Book files, including the personal files of chief scientific consultant, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, to help continue Hynek’s investigations.

• In UFO Witness, former federal agent and paranormal investigator Ben Hansen reopens case files of some of the most astounding UFO encounters in history, which have been hidden from the public for decades. With unprecedented access to more than 10,000 of Dr. Hynek’s case files, Hansen believes the answers to UFOs in America are hidden in the cases of the past. Aiding Hansen on his quest is UFO investigator Mark O’Connell – Dr. Hynek biographer and member of J. Allen Hynek’s Center for UFO Studies. Together, Hansen and O’Connell will attempt uncover the secrets of the past to shed new light on today’s newest UFO encounters.

Project Blue Book is one of the most well-known investigative efforts into UFOs and extraterrestrial life,

                        J. Allen Hynek

with the study being conducted by the United States Air Force in the ’50s and ’60s before shutting down in 1970. While some of the research conducted within Project Blue Book has been released, there is still valuable information that the general public has never seen, with the upcoming discovery+ series UFO Witness to debut all-new information about the phenomenon. The upcoming discovery+ series will explore all manner of intergalactic phenomenon, from UFO sightings to possible contact with humans. The first three episodes of UFO Witness debut on discovery+ on January 14th.

The Story That Changed Our Perception of UFOs

Article by Duncan Phenix                                    December 18, 2020                                   (krqe.com)

• Three years ago on December 17, 2017, the New York Times published a story that is still reverberating through UFO circles and government agencies. (see ExoArticle here) The report revealed the existence of a program called AATIP – Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program – and included a video of a “Tic Tac” UFO taken in 2004 by a Navy pilot from the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz off of the coast of Southern California. The US Navy acknowledged the video as authentic in May of 2019.

• The “Tic Tac” video captured the imagination of the UFO community and the public. But it was the report that the government spent $22 million studying UFOs that pulled the media into the story and allowed the UFO topic to gain a foothold in the mainstream media. UFOs were no longer exclusively the butt of jokes.

• In July of 2020, the Times printed another article about the government’s role investigating UAPs, and the Pentagon’s new program called the UAP Task Force, run out of Naval Intelligence. This was revealed when Senator Marco Rubio included the language of the request in the 2021 Intelligence Authorization Act.

MYSTERY WIRE — Three years ago this week, the New York Times posted a story on its website that is still reverberating through UFO circles and government agencies.

The report revealed the existence of a program called AATIP – Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program – and it put a video into the public eye 13 years after an encounter with a UFO was captured during a military mission off the coast of Southern California.

The “Tic Tac” video, which the U.S. Navy acknowledged as authentic in May of 2019, captured the imagination of the UFO community and the public. The video shows an object that a Navy pilot launched from the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz had described in an up-close encounter.

But it was the report that the government spent $22 million studying UFOs, and former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid‘s involvement, that pulled the media into the story.

Since the report, media attention to the UFO topic has gained a foothold in mainstream reporting. It was no longer exclusively the butt of jokes in the media.

Ahmet Zappa Shares Story of Frank Zappa’s UFO

Article by Tim Peacock                                     December 21, 2020                                           (udiscovermusic.com)

• In a recent episode of ‘Beyond The Bus’ for uDiscover Music, Frank Zappa’s son, Ahmet Zappa tells about his rock star father’s and Navy officer grandfather’s brush with a UFO and UFO technology. (see 5:17 minute video below)

• Ahmet explains that his maternal grandfather was US Navy Captain John Klein Sloatman II. ‘Captain Jack’ had helped pioneer the first atomic submarine. And he claims to have been at Area 51 “during a UFO crash landing”. What is a Navy captain doing at the Air Force/CIA facility Area 51?

• When Captain Jack met ultra-progressive guitarist Frank Zappa, they had little in common until they discovered a mutual interest in science. “My dad …was always dreaming up future technologies” says Ahmet. “[W]hen he was introduced to my grandfather… they started talking about aliens. [T]hey even devised a plan to build an anti-gravitational machine. A UFO! In the late 60s! For the low, low price of $7000.”

• Ahmet believes the putative UFO could still be built. “Somewhere in our (family) vaults there is a book with all the writing and all of the plans to build this UFO someday,” Ahmet reveals. “If we can ever find enough manpower to go through this extensive vault we might actually be able to publish and maybe even build this UFO for once and for all. That would be awesome!”

 

                          Frank Zappa

Ahmet Zappa is the latest star to appear in uDiscover Music’s animated video series, ‘Beyond The Bus’.

Filmed exclusively for uDiscover Music, ‘Beyond The Bus’ has already showcased tales of ribald rock’n’roll

               Ahmet Zappa

revelry from Eagles Of Death Metal’s Jesse Hughes, irrepressible Aussie rockers Airbourne and Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown. Indeed, it’s fair to say that only bands with an unquenchable thirst for the road and the more exotic fare available at rock’s top table are likely to be immortalized in this series.

A man with an impeccable pedigree, Ahmet Zappa is of course the son of the legendary Frank Zappa and in this special episode of ‘Beyond The Bus’ he reveals what he calls “a really, really bizarre story” with possible extra-terrestrial links concerning both his father and his grandfather. You can watch Ahmet reveal all in full below, but firstly, if you read on you can enjoy him giving you a flavor of this truly phenomenal tale.

Captain John Klein Sloatman II

“My mother was the daughter of John Klein Sloatman II, a captain in the US navy”, Ahmet says. “Basically, Captain Jack was James Bond. He helped pioneer the first atomic submarine and he’s credited with keeping our aircraft carriers in the water. One of the more fascinating stories is that my grandfather was at Area 51 during the “UFO crash landing”.”

Understandably, you may wonder exactly what a captain in the US navy was doing in the desert with aliens or how it relates to Frank Zappa. As Ahmet reveals, however, science was one of the first things that his distinguished grandfather and his esteemed father had in common.

“My Dad was someone who memorized the encyclopedia and he was always dreaming up future technologies” he says.

“He was a mutant, a superhero and when he was introduced to my grandfather – boom! They started talking about aliens and they even devised a plan to build an anti-gravitational machine. A UFO! In the late 60s, for the low, low price of $7000.”

But why would Frank have wanted a UFO of his own? If you watch the video in full, you’ll find out – and you’ll also discover why it never quite came to fruition. For all that, Ahmet believes the putative UFO could still be built.

Mark Hamill and James Gunn Band Together to ‘Sue’ Space Force

Article by Rebekah Barton                                        December 26, 2020                                    (insidethemagic.net)

• On December 18th at a White house event, Vice President Mike Pence announced that Space Force personnel would be called ‘Guardians’. The military branch already uses a symbol that looks a lot like the Star Trek logo. This caused an immediate backlash from Hollywood heavyweights such as James Gunn, the director of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. Gunn posted on Twitter: “Can we sue this dork?”

• Another Hollywood hero, Mark Hamill (Star Wars’ Luke Skywalker… pictured above) replied to Gunn’s tweet: “So they grab the “Guardians” from your movies, they use the “Force” from our movies… then they have the gall to just steal their logo from “Star Trek”? Let’s file a 3-way joint lawsuit & really nail these larcenous bastards! #MayTheDorksBeWithYou”

• Hamill’s response was clearly tongue-in-cheek, but the ironic nature of the situation is apparent: the logo really does look like Star Trek’s, the moniker obviously aligns with the Marvel movies Gunn directs, and the entire operation is being referred to as a “Force” — not ‘the Force’, but the point stands. The US Space Force responded with another tweet: “The opportunity to name a force is a momentous responsibility. Guardians is a name with a long history in space operations, tracing back to the original command motto of Air Force Space Command in 1983, ‘Guardians of the High Frontier’.”

• Hamill and Gunn are both very active on social media and their followers were quick to respond to their tweets about the US Space Force’s new name. Ian McAdam tweeted: “Would love to see a Disney versus American government lawyer battle.” MightyMary007 posted: “Disney is highly litigious from what I understand, so you’re already well-positioned to do so.” But most fans are still dumbstruck by Hamill’s incredible cameo in The Mandalorian Season 2 finale in which Hamill reprised his role as Luke Skywalker to rescue Grogu (ie: ‘baby Yoda’) with the help of de-aging CGI technology.

• No matter what your thoughts are about the United States Space Force ‘Guardians’ title, the social media exchange between two of fandom’s most famous names is hilarious. As of yet, Spock has not weighed in on the situation — we’ll keep you posted. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is currently in the works for 2023.

 

   Guardians of the Galaxy and Star Wars

If you’ve ever wanted to see a Star Wars and Marvel Cinematic Universe crossover, look no further than…

                    director, James Gunn

Twitter?

You read that right. Two of the respective Walt Disney Company franchises’ big guns — Mark Hamill and James Gunn — have taken to social media for an unlikely (and hilarious) reason.

When current United States Vice President Mike Pence announced that the uniformed members of the U.S. Space Force will be referred to as Guardians — with a symbol that looks very much like the Star Trek logo — Gunn almost immediately posted, “Can we sue this dork?,” obviously referring to the fact that the name “Guardians” clearly resembles Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy franchise.

   Space Force’s logo, and Star Trek’s logo

Hamill wasted no time replying to Gunn’s Tweet, writing back: “So they grab the “Guardians” from your

               Mark Hamill

movies, they use the “Force” from our movies… then they have the gall to just steal their logo from “Star Trek”? Let’s file a 3-way joint lawsuit & really nail these larcenous bastards! #MayTheDorksBeWithYou”

Hamill’s response was clearly tongue-in-cheek, but the ironic nature of the situation is certainly apparent: the logo really does look like Star Trek’s, the name obviously aligns with the Marvel movies Gunn directs — Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is currently in the works, likely for 2023 — and the entire operation is being referred to as a “force” — not the Force, but the point stands.

The U.S. Space Force’s official Tweet about their unintentionally amusing moniker reads:

The opportunity to name a force is a momentous responsibility. Guardians is a name with a long history in space operations, tracing back to the original command motto of Air Force Space Command in 1983, “Guardians of the High Frontier.”

Singer Robbie Williams Thrilled as Former Space Chief Confirms Galactic Federation

Article by Ashleigh Rainbird                                   December 15, 2020                                    (irishmirror.ie)

• British pop singer Robbie Williams (pictured above) is thrilled that his alien theories have been backed up, after Israel’s former space security chief, Professor Haim Eshed, said a “Galactic Federation” exists. Williams welcomed the “big news” that a few select Earthlings from Israel and the US are part of a top-secret organization with aliens. He describes Eshed as “a very learned gentleman who is respected very highly”.

• Eshed reportedly said Israeli and American representatives meet up with aliens at the Federation’s secret underground bunker on Mars. “I know when muggins says all these things about UFOs you go, ‘Oh yeah?’” says Williams. “But he’s top brass in the Israeli military. What about them cosmic apples?”  (see 58 second clip of Williams discussing his UFO encounter below)

• Eshed claimed US President Donald Trump was “on the verge” of revealing their existence, but did not want to cause “hysteria” among us humans. Robbie, of course, has been expecting them.

Rob describes Professor Eshed as “a very learned gentleman who is respected very highly”.

“I know when muggins says all these things about UFOs you go, ‘Oh yeah?’” admits Robbie, who previously made a Radio 4 documentary about a UFO conference in Nevada.

“But he’s top brass in the Israeli military. What about them cosmic apples?”

Tucker Carlson Talks Underwater UFOs

Article by Phil Owen                                           December 15, 2020                                       (thewrap.com)

• On hi December 11th Fox News show, Tucker Carlson (pictured above with Tom Rogan) discussed UFOs that travel underwater. “A new report from American intelligence confirms something that’s been rumored for a while. Late last year a US Navy F/A-18 fighter jet took a very clear photograph on a personal phone of a triangle-shaped unidentified aerial phenomena,” Carlson said. (see 3:21 minute clip of Carlson talking with Joe Rogan on Fox News below)

• “That vehicle, whatever it was, appeared to be operating with a propulsion system that generated no visible exhaust. Hard to see how that can happen,” Carlson continued. “The setting likely places the UFO near a US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. That shouldn’t be surprising because a string of UFO sightings have involved nuclear reactors and warheads.”

• Carlson brought in Washington Examiner reporter, Tom Rogan, who reported on the UFO incident on December 2nd (see Rogan article here). Rogan began by thanking Carlson for covering UFOs. “[N]ot enough journalists, I think, do,” he told Carlson. According to Rogan, “The late 2019 incident essentially involved a US carrier strike group, as with the incident in 2004 and ’15, doing its workups on pre-deployment, preparing to go abroad and do the missions that the Navy are assigned.”

• “[T]he pilots (were) flying off the coast off the Atlantic seaboard and see essentially a black triangle, white sort of indicator lights on its peripheral tips coming out of the water very quickly and then accelerating at extremely high speed at about a 90 degree angle,” says Rogan. [O]ne of the pilots took a photo, very good photo I’m told by multiple sources, on his iPhone.”

• “It came out of the water?” Carlson asked. “There have been over the years a number of reports of unidentified underwater vehicles moving in ways that don’t make any sense at all. Tell us what you know about that.” Rogan said that the reason the Navy doesn’t publicize this stuff is because they don’t want China or Russia to figure out whatever these vehicles are and how they do what they do. “They maneuver in ways that would essentially render a submarine or an aircraft carrier or any, quite frankly, military warship extremely vulnerable to attack,” Rogan told Carlson. “This is some special stuff whatever it is.”

• “Well, a bullet doesn’t travel hundreds of knots an hour underwater, for long,” Carlson remarked. “I mean, I don’t think any human made object ever has — we’ve never imagined something like that.” Rogan responded, “What these things can do, in air, under water, in space, at least in low orbit, are beyond any capability that we can identify with an earth nation, either in platform, something that a military is showing, or is in development.” “Or has even been conceived of,” Carlson replied. “I mean, let’s be honest, this is this is really out of the realm.”

• Earlier this year, Fox News lawyers argued before a judge that Tucker Carlson is not a credible source of news. The judge agreed, saying that “any reasonable viewer” would not take him seriously.

• [Editor’s Note] Indeed, sometimes Tucker Carlson doesn’t get it right. For instance, Carlson claims that the kind of propulsion technology that would allow a craft to travel at high speed underwater and then climb at a 90 degree angle straight up into the sky at a high speed is beyond anything that humans can “conceived of” and is “really out of the realm”. Not so.

Through a series of patents filed in 2019, the US Navy has revealed that they have an operable propulsion system technology for a “Hybrid Aerospace-Underwater Craft” or “HUAC”. I would point Tucker Carlson to ExoArticles such as these: “Paper on Nuclear Fusion Reactor for Hybrid Spacecraft Published in Prestigious Journal”; “US Navy Disclosing Secret Space Program Technologies through Patents System”; and “US Navy Regards Electromagnetic Propulsion & Tesla Shield Patents as Operable”.

 

Navy aviator’s photo of triangular craft that emerged from the ocean waters

As he so often does, Tucker Carlson talked about aliens and UFOs again Tuesday night. But this time there’s a new wrinkle: these UFOs can fly not just in the air, but also underwater.

“A new report from American intelligence confirms something that’s been rumored for a while. Late last year a US Navy F/A-18 fighter jet took a very clear photograph on a personal phone of a triangle-shaped unidentified aerial phenomena,” Tucker said excitedly.

“That vehicle, whatever it was, appeared to be operating with a propulsion system that generated no visible exhaust. Hard to see how that can happen. The setting likely places the UFO near a US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. That shouldn’t be surprising because a string of UFO sightings have involved nuclear reactors and warheads.”

But Tucker isn’t just here for the regular UFOs. He wanted to talk about the “underwater UFOs, which behave in ways that science can’t explain.”

To that end, Tucker had on Tom Rogan from the right-wing Washington Examiner to talk about a report he wrote two weeks ago that has gained no traction among respected news outlets.

Rogan began by pointing that out himself in a way. “Thanks for covering this because not enough journalists, I think, do,” he told Tucker.

John Fogerty’s Lifelong UFO Fascination

Article by George Knapp                                  November 18, 2020                                 (wrbl.com)

• In his songs, John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival fame often refers to ‘chasing down a hoodoo’, sensing a ‘bad moon rising’, casting spells and watching the skies. In a recent interview with Las Vegas’ George Knapp, Fogerty confirms his belief in extraterrestrial/paranormal phenomena.

• Fogarty says that he is a “fan” of the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon, including Bob Lazar, Area 51 and Roswell. “I’m up on it in a sense,” says Fogarty. “I started quite young. In the ‘50s, it was a great time for a kid growing up to experience the flying saucer phenomenon and the green men from outer space and all that. I saw every science fiction movie that was made, and a lot of the horror ones too.’ Fogerty estimates that he’s watched the sci-fi classic “The Day the Earth Stood Still” about 250 times.

• Classic alien invasion movies inspired him to write “It Came Out of the Sky”, his own prediction of how humans might react to an E.T. landing. (see music video below) It raises the question of whether he has had a personal experience. “I’ve never seen a UFO that I know about, nor have I seen an alien that I know about,” Fogerty says.

• As a youngster, Fogerty had a recurring dream which he wrote about in his autobiography, Fortunate Son. “I was up over the neighborhood, just flying around, you know,” Fogerty recalls, “I had this dream from the time I was 6 until I was about 12. I had the dream over and over and over, and there was always seemed to be a presence, like a person that I was aware of, that I knew, a guide, if you will. I didn’t know what to call it.”

• Another time, Fogerty had an eerie spiritual epiphany at the gravesite of legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. It was a life-changing moment, and resulted in Fogerty and some other famous musicians digging into their pockets to put headstones at the otherwise unmarked graves of several blues artists who had been forgotten.

• During the pandemic, Fogerty has been recording updated versions of his classic Creedence songs and has performed with his family at their home.

 

          John Fogerty

MYSTERY WIRE — One of the most successful singer-songwriters of all time is in coronavirus lockdown, like the rest of us. But a year ago this week, he was in Las Vegas to perform a series of concerts, unaware that the concert industry was about to be shut down.

In 2019 John Fogerty performed sold out shows all over the country, unveiled a new concert film, and was slated to

          Creedence Clearwater Revival

headline a show marking the 50th anniversary of Woodstock, which didn’t happen.

If you think about some of the most famous lines in his best-known songs, he’s chasing down a hoodoo, he senses a bad moon rising and all the calamity that might follow, he casts spells and watches the skies. We suspected there might be more to the story.

Fogerty calls his music “swamp rock.” Dating back to his Creedence Clearwater Revival days, his themes and lyrics are populated with spooky, swampy folklore, whether its chasing hoodoos, dark premonitions, voodoo spells and a zombie or two. Is he a student of the paranormal?

George Knapp: You know about this stuff. You’re knowledgeable. Bob Lazar, Area 51, Roswell. You’re up on it.

Fogerty: Yeah, I’m up on it in a sense. I guess you’d call me a fan. I started quite young. In the ‘50s, it was a great time for a kid growing up to experience the flying saucer phenomenon and the green men from outer space and all that. I saw every science fiction movie that was made, and a lot of the horror ones too.

Paranormal West Virginia: The Flatwoods Monster

Article by Shayla Klein and Shyla Parsons                                    October 29, 2020                                     (wboy.com)

• Gray Barker is a well-known UFO conspiracy theorist from Braxton County, West Virginia. He got his start as a writer by telling the story of the ‘Flatwoods Monster’ of 1952, which led to his own series of paranormal publications.

• David Houchin maintains the ‘Gray Barker UFO Collection’ at the Clarksburg Library in Clarksburg, West Virginia. In 1952, when Barker was dabbling in film distribution and booking in Clarksburg, he heard or read about the Flatwoods incident. Barker went to Braxton County to interview the people involved with the Flatwoods Monster incident. The Flatwoods encounter was prominently featured in his publication, The Saucerian, and in his book, They Knew Too Much About Flying Saucers. Barker was the first to introduce the idea of the government’s “Men in Black”, and “used the Flatwoods incident as his springboard to becoming a more or less respected UFO researcher out on the fringe,” says Houchin.

• When the Flatwoods Monster story emerged in the early 1950’s, it was just after the Roswell UFO crash. The public was eager for tales of space aliens, and the Flatwoods story quickly gained traction. It put Braxton County, West Virginia on the map. Some believed that the whole thing was a made up hoax, or mass hysteria. Houchin says that he actually met the family who were at the center of the incident. They were very adamant about what they saw.

• The story begins on September 12, 1952 in Flatwoods, West Virginia. A local resident, Mrs. May, her sons, their friends, and their dog were outside when they saw a bright light in the sky circle around the hill and crash. They thought it might have been a meteor, and so they all walked up the hill to the crash site. When they got up there, there was a glowing red orb in the ground. The air was filled with acrid-smelling oil and smoke. The dog was terrified.

• As they got closer to the glowing orb, they noticed a figure standing over to the side of them. It was humanoid in shape, nearly 12 feet tall with a head shaped like the ace of spades and wearing a metal suit. Mrs. May and the children ran home, and reported it to the authorities. The US government sent some ‘Men in Black’ to their house to investigate the sighting. They took the each of Mrs. May’s family members’ witness reports – and all were consistent. Mrs. May had gotten some of the acrid oil residue from the ship on her dress that night. They took the dress and never returned it

• Today, the Flatwoods Monster is considered the second most popular monster in West Virginia next to the Mothman. The town of Flatwoods has embraced the folktale, creating a Flatwoods Monster Festival, putting up monster shaped chairs across the city, and installing a Flatwoods Monster Museum in 2018. “We’ve been really surprised as to how many people want to come and visit anything dedicated to the Flatwoods Monster. We have folks coming from all over,” said Andrew Smith, founder of the Flatwoods Monster Museum.

• A video game that features places and things in West Virginia called “Fallout 76”, has renewed interest in the Flatwoods Monster. People visit the museum as part of a “Fallout Tour,” where they visit places featured in the game.

FLATWOODS, W.Va. – On September 12 in 1952, a family in Flatwoods said they were visited by an alien spacecraft.

That mysterious night became national–and eventually international–news that put Braxton County, West Virginia on the map.

Jason Burns, a storyteller who specializes in paranormal stories in West Virginia, told the story of what happened that night.

“Mrs. May, her sons, their friends, and a dog were outside playing when they saw this bright light in the sky. They saw it circle around the hill and crash, and they thought it might have been a meteor or something like that, and so they all walked up the hill to where the crash site was, and when they got up there, there was this glowing red orb in the ground. The air was filled with smoke. It was very acrid smelling apparently. Oily kind of air and the dog got close to it and just ran away. The dog was terrified and not wanting anything to do with whatever the ship was or whatever this object was. And as they got closer to it, they noticed that there was a figure over to the side of them,” said Burns.

According to legend, the monster was nearly 12 feet tall with a head shaped like the ace of spades. It was glowing reddish

and green, but some believe that the color of the grass and the ship was reflecting off a metal suit that the alien was wearing.

“When they saw the monster or alien, Mrs. May and the children all ran off to their home, and they reported it to the authorities. Apparently, the US government sent some men—‘men in black’ to their house who investigated the sighting, took down their witness reports–which apparently all of them were the same. Mrs. May got some of the oil on her dress that night from the ship, and they took the dress. They said that they would return it, and they never did,” said Burns.

Conspiracy theories on what the monster was began to pop up as the story gained traction. Some theories suggest that it was just a kid pulling a prank or an owl.

“They tied it in with other stories around the country about the same time,” explained Burns, “This was the age of the space race, so there was a lot of interest in interstellar crafts. This was the time of Roswell. This was the time of Sputnik and things like that that were getting ready to take off, so it was very forefront in people’s minds. So people were thinking maybe it was just mass hysteria,

                        Andrew Smith

maybe it was fake, maybe it was just made up, but I actually have met the Mays at one point years ago. A long time ago, in Flatwoods at one event, and they are very adamant, they saw what they saw. And I believe they believe—you know, I believe them. What they say they saw. Now what it was, I don’t know.”

Gray Barker, a well-known UFO conspiracy theorist from West Virginia, had a part in boosted the national popularity of the monster story by telling the story in several of his publications.

“Barker was from rural Braxton county. He was born on a farm at Riffle, and he was one of the only two kids in his family to get a high school diploma and only one to go on to college. I think he had ambitions to be a writer, but that doesn’t work out for everyone, and in the end he became a writer courtesy of the space brothers and the men in black,” explained David Houchin, the Special Collections Librarian at the Clarksburg Library who maintains the Gray Barker UFO Collection. “In 1952, he was living in Clarksburg, and working in businesses that had to do with film distribution, film booking—that kind of thing, and he heard about the Flatwoods incident. I imagine that he read about it in the newspaper. It was treated pretty confidently as a serious mystery for a short time, and he was familiar with Braxton county and he was fond of the preternatural. The spooky.”

Gray Barker went to Braxton County to interview people who knew about the Flatwoods Monster incident, and the following year, he began his own publication called The Saucerian. The first issue was devoted to the Flatwoods Monster. In 1956, he wrote up the story again in his book “They Knew Too Much About Flying Saucers,” which arguably introduced the idea of the “men in black” to alien conspiracy stories and became popular amongst UFO conspiracy theorists across the nation.

Two Intelligence Insiders’ Plan to Get the World to Pay Attention to UFOs

Article by Alejandro Rojas                                   October 23, 2020                              (openminds.tv)

• The news has been ablaze with UFO headlines. The US government has been forced to seriously confront the UAP/UFO issue. In fact, The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence has requested a public report from the Director of National Intelligence on what has been done thus far with regard to Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon.

• This focus on the UFO phenomenon was the result of a string of media events: a tweet by Sky Hub founder Steve McDaniel followed by a Danny Silva blog; an article by Leslie Kean in The Huffington Post in May 2016; Open Minds UFO Radio interviews of Bryan Bender and NY Times writer Leslie Kean in the summer of 2017; a blockbuster NY Times article in December 2017; a Washington Post op-ed in March 2018; an article by Politico’s Bender in June 2019; a History Channel show; and finally the US Navy authenticating Navy cockpit video of UFOs, admitting that they are for real, and issuing Navy personnel guidelines for reporting them.

• The focus of all of this media attention over the past four years has been former Senate intelligence analyst Chris Mellon and former Pentagon intelligence officer and head of its UFO program, Luis Elizondo. (both are pictured above with Tom DeLonge) It began with Elizondo’s difficulty in being granted a meeting with defense officials to reveal unexplained craft. It would end with Mellon and Elizondo invited to Capitol Hill for high level UFO briefings. “They couldn’t any longer deny it… when they had active-duty pilots and others going on the record,” said Mellon.

• In the documentary “The Phenomenon”, Mellon says his professional interest in UFOs arose from early claims by astronaut Gordon Cooper. Cooper was a part of the famed ‘Mercury Seven’, the first seven US astronauts to go into space. Prior to this, in 1951, Cooper’s squadron of jet fighters had chased a group of round objects that could stop mid-air and make instant 90 degree turns. In 1957, Cooper and his crew at Edwards Air Force base filmed a saucer-shaped object land on a dry lake bed and then take off again. The Air Force sent a courier to collect it. Cooper never saw the film again.

• Just prior to the end of President Clinton’s second term, Clinton told his Secretary of Defense, Michael Cohen, to investigate Cooper’s claims. Cohen assigned the matter to Chris Mellon, who served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Security and Information Operations for The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. Mellon would later become the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence for the Senate Committee. Apparently, Mellon wasn’t satisfied with the records that the US Air Force kept on UFOs, including Cooper’s. He was told that most of them had been removed in order to “clean up” or “save space”. Mellon’s curiosity was piqued.

• Mellon retired from the government and joined a UFO monitoring system called UFODATA. Then he learned about the existence of a Pentagon UFO program. The UFO topic “was something that I had always been interested in,” said Mellon. “So, I was surprised to see they had anything organized at all.” Mellon quickly offered to assist Elizondo to help get data of the Nimitz Strike Carrier Group encounter with a UFO/UAP to the Secretary of Defense. The Office of the Secretary of Defense did not want to escalate the issue. “People were still afraid to touch it and afraid to let the secretary even be exposed to the issue,” says Mellon. Even with Mellon’s connections to senior officials in the Department of Defense, they were unable to secure a meeting with the Secretary of Defense.

• Mellon and Elizondo began to consider more drastic measures – to take their information directly to the media and the public in order to force Congress to take some action. They invited Leslie Kean to Washington on October 4, 2017. “I went down and went to Washington, and we spent three or four hours together,” says Kean. “Luis had resigned (his) position literally the day before we met.” “I was shown the videos… (and) was shown documents about Harry Reid’s involvement. [T]he story was kind of laid out for me at this meeting.” “I realized at that point that it was a New York Times level story, given the documentation that was available for the program and for the people involved and everything else,” Kean continued. “And so that’s how it all started.”

• The world was introduced to Mellon and Elizondo on October 10, 2017, with the press conference launch of Tom DeLonge’s ‘To the Stars Academy of Arts and Science’. Elizondo and Mellon had joined ‘To the Stars’ team of former high level UFO investigators. The announcement was accompanied by Kean’s article in The Huffington Post. Still, no one seemed to take notice of Elizondo who claimed that he ran a UFO program despite the government telling us for decades they had no interest in the topic.

• Then in December 2017, Kean along with co-writers Ralph Blumenthal and Helen Cooper, published a blockbuster NY Times article revealing that the Pentagon had run a secretive UFO program from 2007 to 2012 called the ‘Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program’ (AATIP). The article’s primary source was Elizondo who claimed AATIP did not end in 2012 and that it continues to this day. The Times article also included two videos allegedly showing infrared camera footage from Navy F-18 fighter jets of a UFO, which Mellon had clandestinely received from an anonymous DoD official in a parking garage. (see previous ExoArticle on this)

• On March 9, 2018, Mellon wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post (see previous ExoArticle here) asking ‘Why Doesn’t the Pentagon Care? “Senators and staffers have been kept in the dark,” said Mellon. “There’s some important unanswered questions here.” Soon thereafter, the US Navy announced new formal guidelines for Navy personnel to report UFO encounters. “There’s no doubt in my mind that that report requirement (by the Navy) would not be in there, wouldn’t exist if we had not been engaged in bringing witnesses forward and advocating this and writing about it and so forth,” said Mellon.

• Mellon called upon Congress to require an ‘all-source study’ by the Secretary of Defense, and promoted research into new forms of propulsion that might explain how these vehicles achieve such extraordinary power and maneuverability, as it pertains to national security. “[H]opefully (this attention) will force the Executive branch to get its act together… establish some accountability and force them to take a position in black and white, as opposed to just giving some briefings.”

• In less than three years, Mellon and Elizondo’s strategy has resulted in the US government admitting they take UAP seriously, reversing their decades-long denials of the fact, and the Senate Intelligence committee taking notice by asking for more information. “It’s a tremendous step forward,” said Mellon. “Regardless of what the phenomenon turns out to be in the end. At least now we can have some faith that a serious effort is going to be made to hold and analyze the data, probably implement a new collection strategy… So it has a lot of potential ramifications, all of them positive.”

 

                        Luis Elizondo

The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) has requested that the Director of National

                          Chris Mellon

Intelligence organize research into Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP – aka UFOs) and provide a public report on what has been done thus far. It is an extraordinary move that further legitimizes a topic that has historically been relegated to mythological stories like Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster. However, the public did not know that there were those in the US military and intelligence communities who took the issue seriously and wanted more to be done to figure out what those UFOs are.

              Leslie Kean

“We have an intelligence community for a reason, partly to support our military, partly to avoid strategic surprise, and the intelligence community was failing on both counts,” former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence Chris Mellon told OpenMinds.tv in a recent interview. “The intelligence community was completely unresponsive, completely dropping the ball. I mean, it could be Russian, it could be Chinese, it could be something else.”

                    Bryan Bender

Mellon served for ten years as a Staff Director of the SSCI. From 1998 to 1999, he served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Security and Information Operations, and from 1999 to 2002, he was the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence.
In a recent interview for a documentary called The Phenomenon, Mellon says his professional interest in the topic of UAP began with a request by astronaut Gordon Cooper.

Cooper was a part of the famed Mercury Seven, the first seven US astronauts to go into space. He claims to have had two UFO incidents. The first was in 1951. He claims his squadron of jet fighters chased a group of round objects that could stop mid-air and make instant 90 degree turns. He also claimed that in 1957 a crew he managed at Edwards Air Force base filmed a saucer-shaped object land on a dry lake bed and then take off again. He reviewed the film and reported it. The Air Force sent a courier to collect it. He never saw the film again.

            the ‘Mercury Seven’

According to Mellon, Bill Clinton’s Secretary of Defense, Michael Cohen, tasked him to investigate the matter.

“Astronaut Cooper had spoken with the President,” Mellon says in The Phenomenon. “At a cabinet meeting, he raised this with Secretary Cohen, and then Cohen’s office called me and asked me to pursue this and chase it down.”

“The Air Force colonel that I spoke with got very frustrated, and when I asked him what happened to all of these records,” explained Mellon. “He said, ‘Well, that was all cleaned up or thrown out to save space.’ Something like that. It sounded ludicrous, but that’s what he told me.”

Mellon’s interest in the UFO topic was the focus of an article in The Huffington Post in May 2016 titled Is There a UFO Cover-up? A Government Insider Speaks Out. The article was written by Leslie Kean and was about Mellon joining a group of scientists interesting in developing a UFO monitoring system called UFODATA.

Kean was also one of The New York Times authors, along with Ralph Blumenthal and Helen Cooper, who broke the news in December 2017 that the Pentagon had run a secretive UFO program from 2007 to 2012 called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP). The article’s primary source was Luis Elizondo, a former military intelligence official who claims he retired to get more attention to what he felt was important information regarding UFOs. He also claimed AATIP did not end in 2012 and that it continues to this day.

Miley Cyrus ‘Chased Down’ by a UFO

Article by Cole Delbyck                                  October 10, 2020                                   (huffingtonpost.com.au)

• Pop singer Miley Cyrus has said that believing humans are the only beings in the entire universe is a “form of narcissism.” In a conversation with Rick Owens for Interview magazine on October 5th, the Cyrus recalled once seeing a strange craft following her car in Southern California. “I was driving through San Bernardino with my friend, and I got chased down by some sort of UFO,” said Cyrus. “I’m pretty sure about what I saw, but I’d also bought weed wax from a guy in a van in front of a taco shop, so it could have been the weed wax.”

• “[T]he best way to describe it is a flying snowplow. It had this big plow in the front of it and was glowing yellow. I did see it flying, and my friend saw it, too.” Cyrus said that perhaps the most unsettling part of the encounter was locking eyes with the being piloting the UFO. “I didn’t feel threatened at all, actually, but I did see a being sitting in the front of the flying object. It looked at me and we made eye contact, and I think that’s what really shook me, looking into the eyes of something that I couldn’t quite wrap my head around.”

• Cyrus noted that a “couple of other cars” witnessed the event, too – more than enough evidence that what she “saw was real.” “I was shaken for, like, five days. It fucked me up,” she added. “I couldn’t really look at the sky the same. I thought they might come back.”

• Aliens seem to be preoccupied with Disney Channel alums as of late. Demi Lovato also recently shared that she’d made contact with the great beyond while visiting Joshua Tree with Dr. Steven Greer. (see ExoArticle here)

 

              Miley Cyrus

If extraterrestrial beings were ever to make contact, they could certainly do a lot worse when it comes to earthlings than Miley Cyrus.

The pop star revealed that she once had a close encounter of the peak Miley kind after being “chased down” by a UFO while traveling through Southern California with a friend. Or, you know, maybe it was the “weed wax” she admittedly bought from a “guy in a van” beforehand.

In a conversation with designer Rick Owens for Interview magazine published on Monday, Cyrus recalled the experience in vivid detail.

“I was driving through San Bernardino with my friend, and I got chased down by some sort of UFO. I’m pretty sure about what I saw, but I’d also bought weed wax from a guy in a van in front of a taco shop, so it could have been the weed wax,” she explained. “But the best way to describe it is a flying snowplow. It had this big plow in the front of it and was glowing yellow. I did see it flying, and my friend saw it, too.”

Cyrus said that perhaps the most unsettling part of the encounter was locking eyes with the being piloting the UFO.

“I didn’t feel threatened at all, actually, but I did see a being sitting in the front of the flying object. It looked at me and we made eye contact, and I think that’s what really shook me, looking into the eyes of something that I couldn’t quite wrap my head around,” she said.

The “Midnight Sky” singer went on to add that a “couple of other cars” witnessed the event, too, which, in her mind, is more than enough evidence that what she “saw was real.”

“I was shaken for, like, five days. It fucked me up,” she added. “I couldn’t really look at the sky the same. I thought they might come back.”

Demi Lovato Has Been Chatting With Aliens

Article by Francesca Bacardi                               October 20, 2020                              (pagesix.com)

• On October 17th, pop singer Demi Lovato, 28, shared on Instagram that she, along with a group of close friends, recently spent a few days in Joshua Tree with Dr. Steven Greer — “one of the world’s foremost authorities on the subject of UFOs, ET intelligence, and initiating peaceful contact with ET civilizations.”

• “Over the past couple months I have dug deep into the science of consciousness and experienced not only peace and serenity like I’ve never known but I also have witnessed the most incredibly profound sightings both in the sky as well as feet away from me,” Lovato wrote. (See her Instagram message here, with a video of a UFO she posted.)

• Lovato, Greer, and his CE5 (Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind) team, are encouraging one percent of the world to “meditate and make contact” with aliens so that governments would have to “acknowledge the truth about extraterrestrial life among us,” Lovato posted. “[I]t took me several sessions to tap into a deep enough level of meditation to make contact!) Happy communicating.” She didn’t reveal what she and the aliens conversed about, but we can only assume she caught them up on her dramatic last few months from ending her engagement to Max Ehrich releasing a new song, “Commander in Chief,” rebuking President Trump.

Demi Lovato, 28, shared on Instagram that she recently spent a few days in Joshua Tree with Dr. Steven Greer — “one of the world’s foremost authorities on the subject of UFOs, ET intelligence, and initiating peaceful contact with ET civilizations,” according to his Instagram bio — and a group of close friends to connect with aliens.

“Over the past couple months I have dug deep into the science of consciousness and experienced not only peace and serenity like I’ve never known but I also have witnessed the most incredibly profound sightings both in the sky as well as feet away from me,” she captioned a series of photos and videos of UFOs in the night sky.

Lovato, along with Greer and his CE5 (Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind) team, are encouraging just one percent of the world’s population to “meditate and make contact” with aliens so that governments would have to “acknowledge the truth about extraterrestrial life among us.”

Chris Mellon Reveals He Was Handed Three Infamous UFO Videos in a Pentagon Parking Lot

Article by Luke Kenton                                October 20, 2020                                (dailymail.co.uk)

• A documentary film by James Fox, The Phenomenon, released on October 6th has reignited the fire in the UFO community with firm confirmation of the government’s knowledge of still-unexplained ‘Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon’ (UAP), more commonly known as UFOs, Along with some new information as well.

• In the documentary, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Chris Mellon (pictured above), explained how came to possess the three infamous Navy UFO videos. The 63-year-old Mellon said that unnamed Defense Department official met him in a Pentagon parking lot and handed Mellon a package with the three UFO videos captured by Navy pilots in 2004 and 2015. Mellon tells the filmmakers, “This is a case where somebody bent the rules a little bit, and they did so for the larger good, and we’re absolutely all better off because of it.”

• The three videos were the ‘Tic Tac’ UFO seen by Navy pilots off of San Diego in 2004; an anomalous UFO rotating while in flight and a small UFO darting across the water below, taken by Navy pilots off of the East Coast in 2015. Nimitz carrier pilots Commander David Fravor and Chad Underwood both saw the Tic Tac UFO on November 14, 2004. In the January 21st, 2015 video of the small UFO darting across the Atlantic Ocean, a Navy pilot is heard to remark, “what the fuck is that thing?” as it passes below him. (click link NY Times ExoArticle below to see the three Navy videos… again.)

• Mellon shared the videos with Luis Elizondo, the former head of the classified Pentagon UFO program called the ‘Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program’. (The two men had moved on from government work to become colleagues in “To The Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences’, formed in 2017 to investigate and promote UFO data.) In late August of 2017, Elizondo worked with the Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review to have the three videos declassified.

• On October 4, 2017, Elizondo and Mellon had a meeting with New York Times journalist, Leslie Kean, who also appears in the documentary. Kean was informed by Elizondo about the about the secret Pentagon UFO program, and Mellon showed her the UFO videos on his laptop. This information went on to form what would become the bombshell NY Times article of December 2017 (see ExoArticle here) Kean said she ‘knew this was breaking news for the front page of the New York Times as soon as Mellon informed her about the clips’ existence.

• The Pentagon’s ‘Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program’ (AATIP) was conceived in 2007 by former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and morphed into the ‘Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force’, under the Office of Naval Intelligence, after 2012. Apparently, for over a decade, the Pentagon has been conducting classified briefings for Congressional committees, aerospace company executives and other government officials. The briefings were centered on sightings, video footage, and radar logs by military pilots of ‘unexplained aerial phenomena’ which seemed to transcend existing flight technology – such as an aircraft with no visible engine at 30,000ft, traveling at hypersonic speed.

• The Department of Defense officially released the videos in April this year, nearly two-and-half years after the NY Times report, in order to ‘clear up any misconceptions’ about the video’s veracity. “The aerial phenomena observed in the videos remain characterized as ‘unidentified’,” the department said.

• ‘The Phenomenon’ analyzes the history of UFO sightings in the US since the 1940s. In the film, Senator Reid claims that the US government has been hiding key details about UFO encounters from the public for years. ”Why the federal government all these years has covered up …everything, stopped it, I think it’s very, very bad for our country.” Reid says that most of the government’s evidence of UFOs still “hasn’t seen the light of day”.

• Reid, however, stops short of confirming other-worldly activity, tweeting in August that “we must stick to science, not fairy tales about little green men”. In the film, Reid tells Fox, “Nobody has to agree why [the UFO phenomenon is] there. But should we at least be spending some money to study all these phenomenon? The answer is yes.”

• The documentary film also goes into the US military’s investigation of UFOs in the late 1940s, as sightings of UFO discs began cropping up in mainstream news reports. The Air Force investigated over 12,000 UFO sightings, ‘explaining’ all but 701 of them. One of those unexplained incidents occurred over Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana in 1967. Ten ICMB missiles situated underground beneath the base suddenly become inoperative. Similar sightings and results were also reported at nuclear sites in the former Soviet Union and in Great Britain.

• Robert Jamison, a retired USAF nuclear missile targeting officer, told of several occasions having to go out and ‘re-start’ missiles that had been deactivated, after UFOs – mysterious glowing red objects in the sky – were sighted nearby. “If they had been called upon by the President to launch, they couldn’t have done it.”

 

Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Chris Mellon, has revealed that he was the

      Commander David Fravor

source who provided the New York Times with the three UFO videos it famously published in 2017.

Mellon, who served in the senior intelligence role under the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush administrations, made the bombshell admission in a recently released documentary, The Phenomenon, which is directed by James Fox.

The 63-year-old told Fox that he met with an unnamed individual in the parking lot of the Pentagon months earlier and was handed a package containing three videos of ‘unexplained aerial phenomena’ captured by Navy pilots between 2004 and 2015.

                           Leslie Kean

‘I received the videos, the now famous videos in the Pentagon parking lot from a Defense Department official. I still have the packaging,’ Mellon is heard telling the filmmakers. ‘This is a case where somebody bent the rules a little bit, and they did so for the larger good and we’re absolutely all better off because of it.’

The three videos went on to form what would become the basis of one of the most significant and

revealing articles about UFOs in recent years.
One of journalists who worked on the story, Leslie Kean, also appears in the documentary.

Kean said she ‘knew this was breaking news for the front page of the New York Times,’ as soon as Mellon informed her about the clips’ existence.

In its bombshell December 2017 article, the Times unveiled a classified Pentagon UFO program called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), overseen by the likes of former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

                        Harry Reid

Though at the time the government said the program, secretly commissioned in 2007, was shuttered due to a lack of funding in 2012, the Times later confirmed it continued its existence under a new name, the Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force, within the Office of Naval Intelligence.

For more than a decade, the Pentagon had been conducting classified briefings for congressional committees, aerospace company executives and other government officials.

The briefings were centered on sightings, video footage, and radar logs by military pilots of ‘unexplained aerial

                          Tic Tac UFO

phenomena’ which seemed to transcend existing flight technology – such as an aircraft with no visible engine at 30,000ft, traveling at hypersonic speed.

The Times also released three clips captured by Navy pilots across an 11 year period.

The first of which, known as the ‘Tic Tac’ incident, was captured by F-18 pilot Chad Underwood off the coast of San Diego on November 14, 2004.

The Tic Tac UFO – so-called because of its rounded shape and white color – was spotted by Underwood flying erratically over the Pacific Ocean.

‘It was going from like 50,000 feet to 100 feet in like seconds, which is not possible,’ Underwood said back in December 2019, breaking his 15-year silence over the encounter.

To this day, officials still have no idea what the recorded object was, with weather phenomenon, man-made craft and birds having all since been ruled out.

Two other videos recorded on January 21st, 2015, were also released.

Tucker Carlson: It’s ‘Outrageous’ That the Government is Still Hiding Evidence of UFOs

Article by Phil Owen                                      October 10, 2020                                      (yahoo.com)

• On October 9th, Tucker Carlson ended his Fox News show by discussing UFOs and aliens. (see 4:47 minute video clip below) The topic was prompted by the release of an obscure new documentary called “The Phenomenon” – which claims to be “the most credible examination of the global mystery and cover-up involving UFOs.” (see previous ExoArticle here)

• The documentary features former Senator Harry Reid talking about how the government is still keeping most of the evidence of UFOs under wraps. “If this wasn’t an election year we’d be doing a full hour of this, maybe a full week. It’s that important,” Tucker said of the release of the documentary. “We used to be defensive on this topic, but there’s no reason to be. There is now an enormous amount of evidence, including physical evidence, that UFOs — whatever they are — are real.”

• Carlson then played a clip from the documentary in which Reid says he thinks “it’s very, very bad for a country” that the government won’t tell us about the UFOs, and that “most” of the physical evidence for UFOs has remained locked away. “It’s outrageous,” Carlson said. “And it’s not a partisan question, by the way. That of course was former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, a Democrat if there ever was one.”

• According to the film, Reid said that UFOs have actually and repeatedly interfered with our nuclear weapons capabilities. “So where are these UFOs from?” Carlson asks. “Some researchers told the filmmakers that their origins are becoming clearer.”

• Carlson plays a film clip in which the narrator says: “Dr. Jacque Vallee has collected purported metal debris from UFO cases dating as far back as 1947 that experts are analyzing in a state-of-the-art laboratory. He was astonished to find their composition was unlike any known metal.” Vallee claims that the materials he has were “manufactured” by someone, as they are “not natural to the materials that we have… on the Earth.”

• Carlson then chats briefly then with the documentary’s director, James Fox, and former Defense Department official Christopher Mellon. Carlson asked Fox about this story Reid tells in the film about the UFOs messing with nuclear missiles. “Well, that was one of the big bombshells that Harry Reid dropped during production of the film. It really kind of caught me off guard because it’s the first time, you know, a government official of his magnitude, of his level, had revealed that these UFOs were not only seeing over, you know, super secret nuclear weapons facilities, but they were interacting, shutting on and off some of the missiles,” Fox said. “(Reid) went as far as even saying that if the president had called upon– to launch the missiles on several occasions, they couldn’t have done it. The missiles were deactivated. And this has also been happening in Russia, and we document those cases very thoroughly with high level military officials testifying about these incidents.”

• “In terms of the materials, there are private researchers, Jacques, perhaps foremost among them,” said Mellon. “Jacques is a meticulous scientist, so he’s sending it to peer review and multiple labs. But the gist of it is that those materials were engineered at an atomic level. It’s a capability that we don’t even possess. If they can prove that, demonstrate that, that’ll raise a lot of interesting questions.”

 

As he often does, Tucker Carlson took a break from talking politics for a few minutes at the very end of his Fox News show on Friday night — to talk about aliens and UFOs.

The last time Tucker talked about aliens on his show was mid-September, when we got the the news that there is very likely some form of life on Venus. This time, the topic was prompted by the release of an obscure new documentary called “The Phenomenon” — which claims to be, according to the product description on Vudu, “the most credible examination of the global mystery and cover-up involving UFOs.”

The doc, which was put up for sale and rental on streaming services this past Tuesday, features former Sen. Harry Reid talking about how the government is still keeping most of the evidence of UFOs under wraps. It’s also narrated by “Sphere” star Peter Coyote.

“If this wasn’t an election year we’d be doing a full hour of this, maybe a full week. It’s that important,” Tucker said of the release of the documentary, which currently has six reviews from critics listed on Rotten Tomatoes, and five user reviews.

“We used to be defensive on this topic, but there’s no reason to be. There is now an enormous amount of evidence, including physical evidence, that UFOs — whatever they are — are real,” Tucker went on. “Why don’t we know a lot more about this? Because the government has hidden that information from us, outrageously. But now some of that information has come into public view thanks to a new documentary called ‘The Phenomenon.’

“Tucker Carlson Tonight” then pulled up a clip from the film in which Reid says he thinks “it’s very, very bad for a country” that the government won’t tell us about the UFOs. And that “most” of the physical evidence for UFOs has remained locked away.

“It’s outrageous,” Tucker said after the clip. “And it’s not a partisan question, by the way. That of course was former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, a Democrat if there ever was one. But that’s not even the biggest claim he makes. According to the film, Reid said that UFOs have actually and repeatedly interfered with our nuclear weapons capabilities.

A Year Later, ‘Storm Area 51’ Still Affects Nevada Town

Article by Christopher Lawrence                                   September 18, 2020                                    (reviewjournal.com)

• September 20th marked the first anniversary of the ‘Storm Area 51’ Facebook event when over two million people responded to a college student’s ‘late-night goof’, and pledged to storm Area 51 to “see them aliens.” Leading up to the event, the world was obsessed with how many people would descend on a tiny town called Rachel, Nevada – 50 miles from anywhere – and what they’d do when they got there.

• The event was thrown into disarray just days before when the young man who coined the phrase “Storm Area 51” severed ties with it. Plans to “storm” the nearby gate at the secretive military facility morphed into a music and arts festival dubbed ‘Alienstock’ for the 2000 or so people who were curious enough to show up.

• As the proprietor of the only business in Rachel, Connie West and her Little A’Le’Inn restaurant and hotel were thrust into the international spotlight. “I’m still not unwound from it,” West says of that wild summer that found media from around the world wandering into her small cafe, “because I have to deal with the aftermath of it every day.” “In this last year (with COVID), we’ve been hit so hard, we’re barely treading water.”

• As a result of this random Facebook meme, Lincoln County, Nevada is out $200,000; two small-business owners lost a combined $250,000; litigation involving the meme’s creator is pending; and Rachel has become divided, with many of its residents no longer speaking to one another. “I’ve known these people for a long, long time,” said West. “Alienstock made me see some ugly in people that I never thought were that deep and ugly, right here in my community.” West estimates the event cost her $200,000, and that tab keeps climbing because of the legal bills. She’s due in court again in late February.

• None of that deterred West from attempting to host another festival in 2020, which was canceled due to the pandemic. “I put a hell of a lot of work into it,” said West. “I had some awesome sponsors.” Those sponsors seem willing to work with her again when it is deemed safe, in 2021 or 2022. “All year, people have reached out to me,” West says. “They want this to happen again.”

• Rachel resident Joerg Arnu says that “The event… deeply divided our town into two camps.” One group backs West and her plans. Arnu leads the other group who wishes that West would just throw in the towel. “There’s a lot of animosity all of a sudden,” says Arnu. “Rachel was a very friendly town, where everybody knew everybody, everybody greeted everybody, waved at everybody. Now it’s come down to the exact opposite. Nobody even wants to talk to anyone anymore.”

• Since the Alienstock festival, Arnu says he’s been harassed, had strangers trespass on his property and has been photographed inside his home via long lenses. He complains of tourists driving through the residential areas of Rachel, and he has reinstalled the security lighting he bought last summer. “Our town that was a very peaceful and quiet place, and friendly place, has changed. I don’t know if it will ever mend, if it will ever go back to how it was,” says Arnu. “I will fight another Alienstock with everything I have.”

• Aside from the town of Rachel, the ‘Area 51 Basecamp’ at the Alien Research Center in Hiko, Nevada also had grand ambitions. British DJ Paul Oakenfold was so excited about the event that he flew from England on his private jet to perform for free on opening night at the center. But so few festival-goers showed up, plans were scrapped and tickets were refunded.

• “I don’t think we have anything to be embarrassed about,” says George Harris, the owner of the Alien Research Center. “And, by the way, I lost a lot of money, because I really thought there was going to be about 25,000 or 30,000 people, so we prepared for a lot.” Instead, 8,500 people stopped by over the course of a couple of days. That discrepancy cost him $42,000, and Harris says it will take him four or five years to pay off the bank loan. But the Alien Research Center was busier than normal for the next several weeks, and Harris says visitors still can’t get enough of his “I Stormed Area 51” merchandise. Like West, he plans to do it again.

• Eric Holt had been Lincoln County’s emergency manager for 18 months when calls started pouring in about ‘Storm Area 51’. A predicted number of 100,000 people coming to Lincoln County was a logistical nightmare in a rugged environment with almost no infrastructure. “We spent a month and a half straight just dedicating all of our resources to planning efforts for this,” Holt recalls. Even the 6,000 people who showed up for the event was “still kind of unheard of for up here” where there are only about fifty permanent residents. Holt says the county’s final costs for that weekend topped $200,000, and that was only because several other agencies offered their services at no charge. “[I]t would have been over $1 million easy.” Holt says that, between the event and the pandemic, it could take years for the full economic impact to be felt. Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak has indicated that help from Carson City isn’t likely.

• The idea to storm Area 51 at 3 a.m. Sept. 20 was born out of late-night boredom as the 20 year old college student Matty Roberts played World of Warcraft while scrolling through Facebook and watching self-proclaimed Area 51 whistleblower Bob Lazar on Joe Rogan’s podcast. Then he watched as the Facebook challenge went viral all over the world. “I was just like, ‘Oh man, the FBI’s going to show up.’ And they did. And I’m pretty sure I’m still on a watchlist.”

• Now, a year later Roberts lives in Bakersfield, California working in a vape shop, waiting for his ‘in person’ college classes to resume, and hoping one day to become an electrician. “It almost feels kind of like a wild fever dream in a way,’ says Roberts. “But I lived that. And that’s kind of bonkers to me. That’s a story not a whole lot of people can tell. I kind of wanna write a book.”

• After he pulled out of the Rachel event, Roberts ended up hosting a party September 19th at the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center, which served as a launch for Bud Light’s limited-edition Area 51-themed beer. Similar parties were planned in Vegas for this summer, including escape rooms and obstacle courses, and a tour of the East Coast. But COVID-19 stopped all of it in its tracks. “I’ve had quite a few people that kind of mentioned that they thought I made millions from this thing,” says Roberts. But in reality, he only sold a few t-shirts.

• Roberts’ legal rights to the term ‘Alienstock’ are part of the legal dispute with Connie West. But would he do the whole thing again some day? “Absolutely. I mean, if we can, I would love to,” Roberts says. “I think whenever it is, and if it is safe to gather again, I’d really like to kind of just keep pursuing the dream.”

It seems closer to a generation ago than 12 measly months.

Long before the 2020-ness of life began pulverizing us on a daily basis — back when the biggest thing many of us were concerned about was whether we’d ever get our hands on one of those Popeyes chicken sandwiches — the world was obsessed with how many people would descend on a tiny blip on the Nevada map, 50 miles from anywhere, called Rachel and what they might do when they got there.

Sunday marks the first anniversary of the day on which more than 2 million Facebook users, responding to a college student’s late-night goof, had pledged to storm Area 51 to “see them aliens.”

arts festival dubbed Alienstock. The event was thrown into disarray days before, on Sept. 9, when the man who coined the phrase “Storm Area 51” severed ties with it. The resulting four-day festival, put together at the last minute, offered the couple of thousand people curious enough to attend more of a DIY vibe.

“I’m still not unwound from it,” West says of that wild summer that found media from around the world wandering into her small cafe, “because I have to deal with the aftermath of it every day.”

That aftermath includes a lawsuit and countersuit involving the meme’s creator and his team, as well as the wrath of some members of her once-close-knit group of neighbors who remain angry with the way things played out.

“I’ve known these people for a long, long time. … Alienstock made me see some ugly in people that I never thought were that deep and ugly, right here in my community.”

“The Phenomenon” Asks ‘Why Are UFOs Visiting Us? What Do They Want?’

Article by Susan Leighton September 17, 2020 (1428elm.com)

• October 6th will mark the digital release of the James Fox’ UFO documentary, The Phenomenon. Fox, who is known for a previous UFO related History Channel film, I Know What I Saw, brings out supporting evidence of UFOs from Biblical accounts to modern revelations brought forth by New York Times journalist Leslie Kean of the Pentagon’s AATIP UFO program, and the Navy’s cockpit video of the ‘Tic Tac’ and other types of UFO craft roaming around our skies.

• Narrated by veteran actor Peter Coyote and distributed on digital platforms by 1091 Media, The Phenomenon deals with the government’s ongoing efforts to cover-up the existence of UFOs with testimonies from “high-ranking government officials” including President Clinton, John Podesta and Senator Harry Reid. Audiences will have access to never-seen-before UFO footage.

• NASA rocket engineer, Josef Blumrich, constructed a blueprint of what the “wheel” spaceship depicted in the Old Testament’s Book of Ezekiel might have looked like based on the prophet’s account in the Scriptures. But if UFOs have been visiting us for thousands of years, what do they want? Why are they here?

 

The Phenomenon is a documentary from the mind of James Fox dealing with UFOs and the government’s ongoing efforts to cover-up their existence.

                          James Fox

Fox is well known for the History Channel film, I Know What I Saw, which featured detailed reports of alien crafts and investigations into the sightings by analysts and experts.

According to Deadline, veteran actor Peter Coyote, who appeared in Steven Spielberg’s, ET the Extra-Terrestrial, narrates the production. The Phenomenon contains testimonies from “high-ranking government officials” including President Clinton, John Podesta and Senator Harry Reid.

Audiences will have access to never seen before UFO footage. Also covered, the hard-hitting revelation of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification (AATIP) program in The New York Times by journalist Leslie Kean. The now famous declassified Navy fighter jet videos of the “Tic-Tac” and “Gimbal” incidences are mentioned, as well.

UFO Hunter Spent Thirty Years Playing Kraftwerk to Aliens in Space

Article by Patrick Hinton                                     September 7, 2020                                           (mixmag.net)

• John Shepherd, a UFO hunter from Michigan is the subject of a 16-minute Netflix documentary called John Was Trying To Contact Aliens. Shepherd spent nearly 30 years trying to contact aliens by broadcasting music into space, favoring “non-commercial music” such as jazz, reggae, Afropop, Kraftwerk, Fela Kuti, Steve Reich and Tangerine Dream.

• The film’s director, Matthew Killip, explores Shepherd’s journey from his upbringing with adoptive grandparents to inventing and building gigantic machinery called S.T.R.A.T. (Special Telemetry Research and Tracking) to transmit signals into deep space.

• Speaking about his musical selections, Shepherd said, “I like rock, but there’s plenty of it out there. It’s a pretty common broadcast. Rather than loud guitars just wailing away, I wanted to go towards where the soul was and have more meaning in that sense. I wanted something that explores human emotion in a warm and effective way. In sending out music, the idea was to communicate that sense of humanness, that feeling and drive, that ecstasy.”

• The film also explores challenges John faced such as the lack of a loving relationship with his single mother, loneliness, feelings of alienation in a conservative living situation exacerbated by his homosexuality, and eventually finding a connection on Earth that changed his life.

 

        John Shepherd doing his thing

Netflix has released a 16-minute documentary called John Was Trying To Contact Aliens, telling the story of John Shepherd, a UFO hunter from Michigan.

Shepherd spent nearly 30 years trying to contact aliens by broadcasting music millions of miles into space, favouring “non-commercial music” such as jazz, reggae, Afropop, Kraftwerk, Fela Kuti, Steve Reich and Tangerine Dream.

Using new footage and archival imagery alongside commentary from John, the Matthew Killip directed film explores John’s journey from his upbringing with adoptive grandparents to inventing and building gigantic machinery called S.T.R.A.T. (Special Telemetry Research and Tracking) to transmit signals into deep space.

Speaking to Pitchfork about his musical selections, John Shepherd said: “I like rock, but there’s plenty of it out there. It’s a pretty common broadcast. Rather than loud guitars just wailing away, I wanted to go towards where the soul was and have more meaning in that sense. I wanted something that explores human emotion in a warm and effective way. In sending out music, the idea was to communicate that sense of humanness, that feeling and drive, that ecstasy.”

Why Joe Rogan is “100% Convinced” Aliens Are Among Us

Article by Georgia Smith                                       September 10, 2020                                           (dexerto.com)

• Joe Rogan (pictured above) recently moved his popular podcast from LA to Austin, Texas. The studio’s red lighting and tunnel-like shape give the new location a slightly futuristic feel. This was fitting in the September 9th episode with comedian Ron White when the topic of conversation turned to aliens and UFOs. Rogan asked rhetorically, “when will the aliens land? I’ve been thinking the aliens are coming.”

• “I’m convinced, I’m 100% convinced,” he said about the idea that aliens are “dancing among us.” Rogan says that he used to be 60% certain. But he revealed that he’s “talked to people that have seen them. I talked to this one guy who was a pilot,” referring to Commander David Fravor. “He encountered this thing that they called the Tic-Tac UFO. This is an object that they tracked on radar that went from 60,000 feet to one foot above sea level in less than a second.” This particular sighting was actually recorded by the US Navy, with its authenticity confirmed by the Pentagon in 2019. Officials still claim not to know what the object was.

• Rogan then discussed his 2019 interview with physicist Bob Lazar who worked on back-engineering a craft found by the government, saying that Lazar “right away knew that this was no technology that we had currently available.” The propulsion system Lazar describes in a documentary bears striking similarities to the system of the Tic-Tac UFO.

• Rogan admitted that he’s “always worried about things I wanna believe. If I wanna believe it I’m always skeptical.” Perhaps Rogan’s audacity to seriously talk about aliens and UFOs – and government secrets – will prompt more guests with alien-related experience to share their stories.

 

           Commander David Fravor

Since Joe moved his podcast studio from hectic LA to Texas for a fresh start, the studio design of the

                              Bob Lazar

classic brick walls and purple curtains has gone through a dramatic transformation.

The brand new Texas studio boasts some interesting red lighting, a tunnel-like shape, and some protruding black and red panels among other ornaments that give the new location a slightly futuristic feel.

It seems only fitting that the conversation about aliens would arise with the background looking like it had come straight out of a sci-fi movie. He began by broaching the bizarre topic with “when will the aliens land? I’ve been thinking the aliens are coming.”

“I’m convinced, I’m 100% convinced,” he said about the idea that aliens are “dancing among us,” but he “used to be 60%.” He continued by revealing that he “talked to people that have seen them. I talked to this one guy who was a pilot,” regarding his conversation with a man named Commander Fravor.

“He encountered this thing that they called the Tic-Tac UFO. This is an object that they tracked on radar that went from 60,000 feet to one foot above sea level in less than a second.”

Did We Just Spot a UFO in a Netflix Documentary?

Article by Nirmal Narayanan                                    September 9, 2020                                       (ibtimes.co.in)

• In a Netflix documentary entitled: ‘The Hidden Science of Everything’, the show’s scientists are demonstrating how clouds make rain. They employ a small plane in the shot, taking off from an airport in San Angelo, Texas. As the plane is gaining altitude, an object streaks right by the plane at a mind-blowing speed. (see 1:33 minute video below)

• The object that passed the airplane seems very similar to the classic disc-shaped UFOs often depicted in Hollywood movies. The video was uploaded to ‘The Hidden Underbelly 2.0’ YouTube channel where it went viral. Many comments conclude that sightings like these are irrefutable proof of alien presence on Earth.

• “Awesome, many UFO’s travels around Earth so fast, that we Earthlings only spot a small percentage. Right place right time fortunes the lucky,” commented NJK, a YouTube user. “Man that looked like you said a flying saucer. Like Roswell saucer. It’s a matter of time before the world knows the truth,” commented Alan Barra, another YouTuber.

 

Space agencies like NASA and ESA have been searching for extraterrestrial aliens for several years, but until now, humans have not succeeded in making the crucial first contact. However, conspiracy theorists strongly believe that aliens are already here on the earth, and they argue that UFO sightings are authentic proof of their existence. And now, eagle-eyed conspiracy theorists have claimed to have discovered a UFO in a Netflix documentary titled ‘The Hidden Science of Everything’.

UFO appeared in Netflix documentary

In the clip taken from the show, an airplane can be seen taking off from San Angelo to Texas to demonstrate how clouds make rain. But shockingly, during the airplane’s course in the skies, another object appears and seems to zoom along in the opposite direction. The flying object spotted near the airplane in the skies was apparently traveling at a mindblowing speed, and audiences will get only a glimpse of it if the playback speed is slowed down.
