After 36 Years, The US/UK *STILL* Don't Know How The Saucers Operate

Roswell is totally irrelevant given America has an extraterrestrial
aircraft sequestered at Groom Lake, which was given to America
at Holloman AFB in 1973.  To date the American government
has never been able to understand the flight mechanism
because it operates on a totally different physics model which
is not understood by dumbed down, government-controlled
American science.

The British don't understand it either.....  read below......



Take me to your gizmos: MoD in bid for alien tech
Jack Grimston 

UFOs over Sheffield in 1962

THE Ministry of Defence ordered an investigation of thousands of UFO
sightings in the 1990s to examine whether alien spaceship technology could
be exploited to build advanced engines for the RAF, according to a new
official history.

The book, based on the ministry�s �X-files� of thousands of sightings, shows
that an unnamed wing commander initiated the project in 1993 because he
believed it was wrong to assume extra-terrestrial craft did not exist.

Nick Pope, who has written on UFOs and was a colleague of the officer at the
MoD, confirmed the book�s account: �I remember him saying he believed there
was evidence of an exotic propulsion system and the bottom line was that if
they had it, we sure as hell wanted it.� Pope would not disclose the man�s
name.

Official documents from the wing commander are quoted in the book, written
by David Clarke, senior journalism lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University.

The officer wrote that while most of the phenomena would have rational
explanations, �if the sightings are of devices not of this earth then their
purpose needs to be established as a matter of priority�.

He added: �There has been no apparently hostile intent and other
possibilities are 1) military reconnaissance; 2) scientific; and 3)
tourism.�

Alien engines, if they existed, were apparently �stealthy� and �do not use
conventional reaction propulsion systems�. The wing commander wanted to
explore possibilities for �technology transfer�.

The new book, The UFO Files: The Inside Story of Real-Life Sightings, is
published by the National Archives in Kew, west London, and is based largely
on MoD files released there. It traces the story of UFO sightings in Britain
from the first decade of the 20th century.

Through much of the past 100 years, thousands of sightings by people ranging
from RAF pilots to police officers and children have been collated by the
MoD who believed they could yield evidence of advanced foreign aircraft of
which Britain had no knowledge.

Some remain hard to explain, such as foo fighters, the name given to balls
of fire that seemed to pursue RAF bombers in the second world war.

It was only in the 1990s, partly at the wing commander�s prompting, that the
MoD finally did a systematic analysis of UFO sightings, called Project
Condign.

Most were explained by everyday objects, such as airships, clouds or even
chinese lanterns, being mistakenly identified as alien craft, or by unusual
atmospheric phenomena. No evidence of aliens was found.

A retired senior official at the defence intelligence staff, where the wing
commander was employed, said: �Some people had bees under their bonnet ...
whenever UFOs were raised at the weekly directorate meetings it was in a
fairly light-hearted and dismissive way.�

Clarke�s book shows sightings are still frequent. In 2007 the MoD opened a
file on an incident over the sea near Guernsey in which pilots of two planes
saw a �sparkling yellow object shaped like a long, thin cigar�.

Last year the MoD�s directorate of air staff logged 285 UFO sightings. The
ministry runs a UFO hotline at RAF High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire which the
public can telephone with details of sightings. The number is 01494 496 254.
